Wrestling drops two more Big Ten meets

Queens of Death Drop Student-organized drag show came to IU’s stage Saturday night

By Caroline Anders anders6@umail.iu.edu | @clineands

The heels were towering, the hair was larger than life and the cheekbones could’ve — should’ve — cut glass.

IU's own drag queens took the stage Saturday night in Life’s a Drag (Race), a student-organized drag show, swathed in velvet, sequins, and even trash bags.

The night, which took place in Alumni Hall at the Indiana Memorial Union, drew a crowd of over 450 to watch the queens dance and lip sync to artists like Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj.

Many in the crowd donned their drag finest, from mesh tops and glittery faces to velvet shoes.

From the time Demi Lovato’s “Sorry Not Sorry” started pulsing through the speakers, the audience was rowdy, dancing in the aisles and cheering for their favorite queens.

The event was the second of its kind, organized by sophomore Rylan Deer and hosted by his drag persona, Gaia Ciccone. Ciccone is the ‘drag mom’ of one of the other queens who performed, Taera Ciccone.

“A drag performance is not something most parents approve of,” Ciccone said. “Thankfully, I’m not like other moms. I’m a cool mom.”

Ciccone sashayed on stage after the first act in a royal blue sequined floor-length gown and a red bob wig.

Deer said his queen, Ciccone, was wearing a corset as well as silicone hips to get the curves she wanted for the night.

He started getting ready for the event at 10 a.m. and finished around 6 p.m. after hours of makeup and hair removal.

Each queen has her own persona. With names like Ima

Wreck, Jenna Talia and Mary F. Kills, the queens all cultivated performances around their stage identities.

Kade Padgett, known as Ima Wreck, said his queen persona came from an alias his grandmother wrote under in her church publication.

Padgett said Ima Wreck is the personification or mental illness.

“She’s not meant to be pretty,” he said. “She’s meant to make a statement.”

Many of the queens said the show “RuPaul’s Drag Race” inspired them to explore the drag culture.

Freshman Ethan Tinsley did his makeup for the first time on May 12, 2017, after starting to watch the show as a freshman in high school.

Tinsley said he never thought he would try drag, until he put makeup on. His queen persona is named Jenna Talia, and she’s a party girl.

Talia likes pink, she said. Tinsley does not.

Freshman Ashton Murray went to his high school prom in drag. He also credits RuPaul’s Drag Race for inspiring him to explore the art.

Murray’s persona, Taera Ciccone, is the daughter of Gaia. Saturday

“She’s not meant to be pretty. She’s meant to make a statement.”

Kade Padgett, drag queen performer under the name “Ima Wreck”

was Taera’s debut on stage, and she was the race’s runner-up.

A total of four death drops, a dance move where the dancer falls backwards to the floor, were executed on the stage. The move is characteristic of drag performance and culture.

Some of the queens gave theatrical performances, some were choreography-focused and others used props to convey their stories.

Six queens total performed during the event along with a special intermission show from last year’s winner, Avasa. 2017 was the first year Deer arranged the show.

As the queens stomped across the stage throughout the night, wigs were lost, fake blood was spilled and dollars were thrown to the queens.

“We should’ve practiced tipping,” Ciccone said when queens kept leaving cash on the stage. “We did a shoes rehearsal — that was stunning — but we should’ve done tipping.”

Five audience members were chosen to judge the competition and crowned Ima Wreck the winner with a rhinestone-encrusted tiara at the end of the night.

Drag often involves dancing, the removal of clothes and tipping from the audience, but performances are more focused on the queens’ personas.

Ciccone was surrounded by fans at the end of the night for photos.

No one measured up to the queen, who stood six feet and three inches in her heels.

After months of planning, Deer could finally take off his wig cap and call it a night.

“Life’s a Drag (Race)” will be held again next year, Deer said. He’s already secured Alumni Hall for the event.

CBD supporters urge passage of legislation

By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@umail.iu.edu | @LaurelDemkovich

Supporters of cannabidiol oil legalization gathered at the Statehouse on Thursday with a goal of educating themselves and the public on the uses and benefits of CBD oil.

Users and supporters of legalizing CBD oil and industrial hemp, two products derived from the cannabis plant that are sometimes used to treat epilepsy or other seizure disorders, gave testimonials as well as showed their support for three current CBD-related bills.

Jesse Bunnell from B-Town Botanicals talked about how his Bloomington store recently started selling CBD-related products. He said he had seen many people use it and have positive results.

“It doesn’t work for everyone, but the people who do use it should have access to it,” Bunnell said.

Ashlie Kehrberg spoke on how CBD oil changed her life.

Kehrberg said she suffered

from a spinal injury that caused her legs and arms to go numb.

Doctors put her on numerous prescriptions, but she started suffering severe side effects, such as insomnia and eye problems.

She decided to try CBD oil. She

found that she could sleep through the night and did not feel nerve pain in her arms anymore. Kehrberg urged citizens to get educated about what the product is and isn’t.

“We started educating

ourselves just like every other person in Indiana needs to do,” she said.

The Indiana House of Representatives passed two bills this week involving CBD and industrial hemp. CBD oil and industrial hemp are both products of a cannabis plant and can be used for similar purposes but are made from different parts of the plant.

House Bill 1137 passed unanimously through the House on Wednesday. The bill would establish a pilot program allowing for the cultivation of industrial hemp and industrial hemp products. Industrial hemp is a type of cannabis plant with low THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.

The bill would allow farmers to grow the plant, which can’t get users high. Hemp can be used for a variety of purposes, including food or fuel. It also has numerous health benefits and can work to treat epilepsy and other seizure SEE CBD, PAGE 5

A comparable sentiment has been felt after each of IU’s Big Ten wrestling matches.

The same wrestlers for the Hoosiers pick up points for their team while the rest do not. But, with two big matches at home versus Illinois and rival Purdue, the Hoosiers were almost shut out and ended the weekend with very few positive results.

On Friday, IU fell to No. 14 Illinois 33-9. On Sunday, the Purdue Boilermakers came to town, and the Hoosiers were not able to figure out how to get any points on the board to beat Purdue, as they got the loss 34-3.

On Friday night, a few of the always-reliable Hoosiers fell to the Illini. It was a difficult match for IU, and they were lucky enough to get the points that they did, three of them coming through a weight class forfeit for the Illini.

After Purdue on Sunday, IU Coach Duane Goldman explained why his team didn’t come out with the energy needed to get the win.

“I think they were more aggressive when it got down to the really nitty gritty, someone’s got to score,” Goldman said. “They just took more risks than we did. I think that we didn’t execute late in the match when we needed to. We were waiting for the right time or right situation, rather than just going in there.”

The Hoosiers have looked over matched in each of these conference matches. Last month, the Hoosiers emphasized improvement for the end of the season. So far, they have looked completely flat in each of their match-ups.

Perhaps it is because their conference foes are difficult, but each of the matches have seemed to skew more and more toward their opponents than toward the Hoosiers.

No. 13 junior Cole Weaver, who has been consistent and reliable all season, couldn’t get anything done against either of his opponents.

These were big duals for the junior, as he needs all the wins that he can get as seeding for the NCAA tournament becomes more important.

No. 18 sophomore Devin Skatzka got a big win against Illinois and scored the Hoosiers’ first points of the night. However, against Purdue, Skatzka couldn’t figure out how to finish as he lost a tough fight in a revenge match against No. 9 Dylan Lydy.

The only positive on the weekend goes to sophomore Buddy Conley as he picked up two wins.

The first versus Illinois came because the Illini couldn’t field a wrestler in his weight class. However against Purdue, Conley was the lone performer and scored IU’s only three points.

This brings his season dual totals to 7-8 with a chance against Northwestern to finish the year at .500. He was content with his outing over the weekend and mentioned his mentality as one of the reasons he has been able to succeed lately.

“Coach has helped me a lot with my effort and mentality during the match,” Conley said. “It feels pretty good. It’s a long season, we still have the postseason and the Big Ten. So I’ll be wrestling all these guys again. I have to have a good attitude and not get complacent.”

The attitude that the team gets all comes from the coaching staff and the outlook they give the team on the rest of the season. Goldman emphasized this inspiration after the match.

“I think there can be a lot of inspiration in just effort,” Goldman said. “There’s guys like Buddy who’s a walk on. And Raya who last year was seventh in the state in California, and now he’s wrestling some of the best guys in the country toe to toe. There’s a lot of inspiration in that for me.”

“They just took more risks than we did.”

Suspect arrested in connection to Bloomington fire From IDS reports

PETER TALBOT | IDS

A sign hangs on the cash register of The Round café in Forest Residence Center advising students of the new Monroe County food and beverage tax. The 1-percent tax will not apply to food courts or stores on the IU campus for current students.

Students exempt from tax on campus

By Arielle Pare acpare@umail.iu.edu | @acpare

The food and beverage tax passed by the Monroe County City Council on Dec. 13, 2017 will not apply to food courts or stores on the IU campus for current students.

This 1-percent tax will apply to Monroe County, and it will help fund the expansion of the Monroe County Convention Center, and it applies to any transaction of food and drinks that are “furnished, prepared or served” at the store’s location.

“This will not affect students eating on on-campus locations in any way,” said Rahul Shrivistav, the Director of Dining. “We will always be tax-exempt.”

The tax includes food and beverages that are sold in a heated state or served with eating utensils, straws, glasses, or plates. Any unprepared food or previously

untaxed food will be unaffected by the tax. The tax went into effect on February 1, 2018.

“It will be pretty much anything at a restaurant,” said Geoff McKim, an atlarge representative of the Monroe County Council.

“But ordinary groceries are not taxable.”

Although locations such as the Wright Food Court are safe, Shrivistav said that faculty, staff and visitors are expected to pay the food and beverage tax at oncampus locations. He said that only students receive a tax-exempt status on campus.

Students at the Dec. 13 meeting were divided about the tax bill, with some expressing concern that it would still disproportionately affect students. Those lobbying against the bill included the IU College Republicans club, who stated the students paying the tax would not be able to enjoy

the benefits of the convention center before their graduation.

According to a previous IDS report, some students also expressed their disapproval at the vote taking place during finals week, which made it difficult for students to express their

“This will not affect students eating oncampus in any way.

We will always be tax-exempt.”

Rahul Shrivistav, Director of Dining

opinions on the issue.

Lee Jones, another Monroe County Council member, voted against the bill and said that a food and beverage tax was not a good way to fund the Monroe County convention center.

She said, however, that it

was the only funding source that the state would allow.

“Students do seem to spend more on these foods and beverages,” she said.

McKim voted in favor of the bill and said that the convention center will benefit students. The overall vote was 4-3.

“Student groups use the convention center, students work at the convention center, they intern at the convention center,” he said. “IU uses the convention as an expansion when buildings are under construction.”

McKim said he had been working on the expansion of the convention center for four years and that the timing of the project seemed to be appropriate. He said that it would promote tourism in Bloomington and that it would benefit the city in numerous ways.

“It’s a part of the community,” McKim said, referring to the convention center.

Medicaid work requirement established From IDS reports

Indiana became the second state to receive permission from the federal government to require Medicaid enrollees to obtain employment to keep their healthcare benefits.

The waiver, permitted under the state's Healthy Indiana Plan, or HIP 2.0 , would require able-bodied, working age people who receive Medicaid benefits to seek employment or other community focused activity. This waiver is extended through 2020 The waiver and attached requirements were announced by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar and Gov. Eric Holcomb in Indianapolis on Friday. Azar was sworn in to his

position on Monday.

“Today’s approval is the result of the hard work of Governor Holcomb, his team, and our team at CMS, and serves as a testament to Indiana’s ongoing commitment to improving the lives of its Medicaid beneficiaries,” Azar said in a Friday HHS release.

The Medicaid program, a joint federal and state-level initiative which began in the 1960s, provides healthcare for low-income families, the elderly and pregnant women.

Indiana has received a Medicaid waiver under HIP in the past, though state officials were blocked by the federal government in 2015 from installing such work requirements.

Indiana's first Medicaid

waiver required some enrollees to pay monthly premiums on their healthcare, a policy which may have contributed to 25,000 less people enrolled from the program between it's installment in 2015 and last October, according to Governing.com.

The waiver was rolled out with guidance from Seema Verma, a health policy advisor to Indiana's governor.

Verma is now the administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the federal agency which oversees Medicaid.

Conservative politicians see such policies' goal as ultimately weening low-income people off of governmental assistance. Many Democrats believe programs like Medicaid already encourage employment by allowing those

enrolled to focus on providing other resources for their families.

The waiver approved last week includes provisions to address the opioid epidemic, according to a copy of the expanded waiver available on the HHS website.

Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Indiana, lauded the extension of HIP in a Friday release, saying the extension would allow Indiana to expand substance abuse programs.

“I’m pleased that today’s announcement will ensure that hundreds of thousands of Hoosiers can continue to access health care coverage through HIP 2.0, which was made possible by the Affordable Care Act," Donnelly said in the release.

BLOOMINGTON BLOTTER From IDS reports

Woman reported being injected with unidentified substance Bloomington police responded to a report of an assault around 3 a.m. Saturday.

A 29-year-old woman told officers she was injected with an unknown substance during the incident, but quickly became uncooperative with the investigations, police said.

The assault was reported to have occurred on the 2500 block of South Rockport Road.

Officers said the woman was intoxicated when the report was made and the details of the incident were fuzzy.

She stopped answering questions soon after the investigation began, Sgt. George Connolly said.

28-year-old male missing

It is unclear whether these previous incidents were reported to authorities at the time.

Hobbs was last contacted on Jan. 31, a relative reported to police.

This case is active.

Counterfeit $10 identified at Lucky’s Market

Joshua Hobbs, 28, was reported missing Saturday afternoon. Police said there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his disappearance.

Hobbs’ family told police Hobbs had lost contact with them before, Connolly said.

Cashiers at Lucky’s Market on South Walnut Street discovered a counterfeit $10 bill Saturday night.

The customer who paid with the bill didn’t know it was fake, police said. The customer said they were not sure where they had received

the bill from.

Employees discovered the $10 was fake when it was checked with a counterfeit detection pen.

Second Xbox in two days reported missing A 53-year-old male, who had been away from his home for about three weeks, reported several electronics missing Friday.

The items included a laptop, an Xbox and the Xbox controller.

Police did not report any sign of forced entry.

Bloomington police made an arrest Wednesday in connection to a fire on June 24, 2017, which decimated the Bounds and McPike Flooring building on West Third Street.

Danny Corlette, 51, of Springville, Indiana, is charged with arson and burglary.

Corlette was one of two people suspected of involvement with the fire, based on the past criminal history of people employed or contracted by the business, Bloomington Police Department Lt. John Kovach said Thursday. Corlette had been contracted to lay carpet by the business in the past.

A break in the investigation came after the second suspect, another worker who had contracted for the company and was never charged, died in an accident in September.

Kovach said a member of the second suspect’s family came forward to police, saying he would not usually rat out his own family, but now that he was dead he was comfortable telling officers what he had heard from his relative.

The fire, which decimated the building where the flooring business was located, was believed by fire investigators to have started when a piece of carpeting was lit on fire. Kovach said police soon

came to believe the fire was set to destroy evidence of an alleged burglary.

Authorities suspected foul play early on in the investigation, Kovach said. A glass door to the business had been shattered and fire department officials told police they believed it was not due to fire.

A five-foot tall safe containing a few hundred dollars and some paperwork was found to be missing from the building. So far, Kovach said, the safe has not been recovered.

Investigators recently obtained Corlette’s phone records, Kovach said. When they questioned Corlette on Wednesday at BPD he continued to deny involvement with the fire, and also told police he was not in possession of his cellphone at the time the fire occurred.

Police interviewed people who had spoken over the phone with Corlette during the same time period, and, based on cellphone tower location information, Kovach said they were able to place him at the scene.

The family member’s statements confirmed what police had already suspected, Kovach said.

Corlette was booked into the Monroe County Correctional Facility Wednesday night.

Man arrested on charges of sexual misconduct Friday From IDS reports

An arrest was made after a 15-year-old girl told police a man sexually assaulted her last month.

The man, 48-year-old James David Purtlebaugh Sr., was arrested on charges of sexual misconduct with a minor, after the teenager said a man exposed himself to her and fondled her breasts.

Purtlebaugh Sr., a registered sex offender, was reportedly a friend of the teenager's family. He lived in a camper outside her boyfriend’s parents’ house.

He and the girl were running errands on Jan. 19 when, according to police, he drove to the top of the IU Health Bloomington parking garage and told her they needed to “kill some time.”

She told police she didn’t understand what he meant.

As they were parked in the garage, police said he touched her breasts, put his

hands down her pants and exposed his genitals to her.

The girl told police she repeatedly asked him to stop, but he did not.

The incident allegedly was not reported to the Bloomington Police Department until Jan. 30.

Bloomington Police Department Lt. Ryan Pedigo said video surveillance of the parking garage shows the suspect’s car was parked on its top level for 27 minutes before driving away.

Neither individual exited the car during that time.

Purtlebaugh was located at his home Friday, but refused to give police a statement. He was taken into custody and charged with sexual misconduct with a minor.

He was originally registered as a sex offender against children in December 2011, according to the Greene County Sheriff 's Office.

IU participates again in national RecycleMania contest

By Arielle Pare acpare@umail.iu.edu | @acpare

Bloomington’s IU campus will be participating in the national RecycleMania contest for the eighth year in a row.

The contest began Feb. 4, and will run through Mar. 31.

RecycleMania is intended to motivate students to practice a more sustainable lifestyle through recycling more and limiting food waste, said Steve Akers, who coordinates the contest at IU. The nonprofit organization, Keep America Beautiful, facilitates the contest, which involves both Canadian and American schools.

“It positively reinforces the importance of that three-second decision on where to put that paper cup versus that lid,” Akers said.

“It’s a way to educate students, staff and faulty on the recycling systems that are on campus and how to use those systems.”

Akers oversees custodial services for Residential Programs and Services at IU. His job enables him to collect and analyze the campus' recycling, landfill and compost waste that RecycleMania uses to calculate the winners of the competi-

tion.

The RecycleMania website publishes weekly rankings throughout the duration of the contest so students can track the performance of their school. Upon winning, schools receive a trophy made of recyclable materials.

Winning categories include total diversion of

waste from trash to recycling, food organics and the per capita classic, which is the largest amount of recyclable materials per individual on a campus.

IU is competing against other Big Ten universities, as well as local Indiana schools such as Purdue University.

In 2017, 320 schools par-

ticipated in the contest with IU attaining an overall rank of 161. In 2016, IU won the award for most improved school nationally.

Akers said that the contest may help IU reach its goal of a 40 percent diversion rate by 2020. In 2017, IU composted a total of 140,330 pounds of waste, and the Goodbody Eatery

at Wells Quadrangle is now a zero-waste facility. Aker said that The Restaurants at Woodlands at Forest Residence Center is also reaching for a no-waste goal.

In order to succeed in the contest, Akers said that students can reduce their use of plastic bags, extra packaging and water bottles. He said the campus sells about

13,000 plastic water bottles per week.

“It’s not just about recycling and composting, it’s also about healthy eating,” said Kelly Eskew, a Kelley School of Business professor who, during the spring semester, teaches a class called Sustainability Law & Policy, which studies the IU waste system and its sustainability.

She said that in the single stream system of the IU campus, she estimated that about 75 percent of what goes in the trash could be recycled.

Eskew's class audits aspects of IU’s recycling such as food sourcing and compost costs as well as assists RPS Dining Director Rahul Shrivistav formulate his vision of a zero-waste campus.

“We have to educate people to take the time to think, to be more mindful, and to see how it positively impacts lives,” Eskew said.

Akers said that he is eager to initiate a friendly competition with Purdue University in the RecycleMania contest. Both he and Eskew have high hopes for IU’s performance in the competition.

“There’s no reason why we can’t be #1 in the Big Ten,” Eskew said.

General Assembly: Sex ed, hate crimes and smoking age

By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@umail.iu.edu @LaurelDemkovich

The Indiana General Assembly is about halfway through its session, which is scheduled to end March 14.

Here’s what you missed this week at the Indiana Statehouse.

Sex Ed A bill that would require school corporations to get written consent from parents before teaching about human

sexuality passed through the Senate last Tuesday.

The bill defines “human sexuality” as including sexual activity, sexual orientation or gender identity.

Senate Bill 65 would also prohibit the school corporation from teaching sexual education without first receiving written consent.

The bill passed 37–12 and will now head to the House.

Hate crimes Indiana lawmakers decided last Tuesday not to hear a hate crime bill this session.

State legislators said they could not agree on language for Senate Bill 418. GOP party leadership decided not to hear the bill in committee.

The bill would have made a crime committed on the basis of characteristics of an individual — such as race, gender, sexual orientation or religion — an aggravating circumstance, which increases the severity of a resulting penalty.

It would have also required law enforcement to report bias crimes to the FBI. The failure to hear the bill

comes after four attempts in recent years to pass similar legislation.

While the bill will not be heard this session, lawmakers said they felt confident it will be back for discussion next session.

Firearms and worship areas A Senate committee passed a bill that would allow a person to legally carry a gun in a church property, regardless of whether there is a school on the same property or not.

Currently, Hoosiers can

carry a gun on church property as long as there is not a school on the property.

Senate Bill 33, however, would allow a person to carry a gun with the permission of the church, regardless of if there is a school or not.

The bill passed through a Senate committee 5–2 last Wednesday and will now make its way to the full Senate floor for further discussion.

last Monday and was effectively killed the next day.

House Bill 1380 would have raised the minimum smoking age from 18 to 21.

The bill passed last Monday unanimously through the House Public Health committee.

The next day, however, House Speaker Brian Bosma, R-Indianapolis, sent the bill back to the House Ways and Means committee, citing concerns about its fiscal effect.

Since bills had to be out of committee by Tuesday, the bill was effectively killed.

EDITORIAL BOARD

ILLUSTRATION BY MADELYN POWERS | IDS

Kentucky's Medicaid requirements hurt more than help As if the national healthcare issue wasn’t complicated enough, Kentucky recently decided to add to the confusion.

Kentucky’s branch of Medicaid is looking to require a “financial or health literacy course” as an alternative to completing work requirements for health insurance. It seems at first glance that Kentucky is making things easier for their applicants, if you are in the position to assume everyone would pass a literacy course.

If you are among those who believe this program is more damning than beneficial, then you will understand why we, the Editorial Board, are concerned for the success of this program.

WalletHub, a company that provides free credit scores and credit reports, conducted a study on the best and worst educated states in the coun-

try as of 2017. Kentucky was ranked 45 out of 50. This ranking was calculated by comparing the number of adults over the age of 25 with high school diplomas, associate's degrees, bachelor's degrees and graduate degrees in the state, or some experience at any of these levels of education. Kentucky’s score showed 22.98 percent of the state population fell into one of these categories.

In 2000, the Legislative Research Commission in Kentucky researched adult literacy in the state. In the foreword of this study, Robert Sherman, Director of the Legislative Research Commission, says the low levels of literacy and education among adults in Kentucky has greatly affected the ability to integrate and contribute to the state community. It refers to adult illiteracy as a fundamental barrier to many positive changes in

Kentucky, including improving the health of Kentucky’s communities.

A literacy course isn’t the only change Kentucky has made to their Medicaid program. On Jan. 12, the state began a five-year trial program to mandate all able-bodied individuals on Medicaid to seek work in one way or another. The options include going to work, going to school, volunteering or otherwise engage in their communities for 80 hours each month.

Matt Bevin, the Republican governor who passed the bill, said his father taught him that people should not take something they have not earned.

While this may help people get off federal healthcare, we are not optimistic that it will help all 1.3 million Medicaid recipients in Kentucky.

Kentucky will be the first state to implement both of

these requirements in healthcare, and unfortunately, they are not the only state to do so. Indiana has become the second state to add work requirements for Medicaid.

Since the mandate for working was added to the program, 15 citizens have filed a lawsuit against Kentucky Medicaid. The complaint was filed by the National Health Law Program, the Kentucky Equal Justice Center and the Southern Poverty Law Center on behalf of 15 citizens who would be negatively affected by this amendment. These citizens include college students, a custodian and a pastor, and many of these people have health problems. There are patients on Medicaid who are disabled, need cancer treatment and have other situations that would make working impossible or incredibly difficult.

In a press conference on Feb.1, Bloomington Police Chief Mike Diekhoff announced an agreement with Indiana’s Department of Correction that will prevent Indiana parolees who lack ties to Monroe County from being released to the county.

ceived from DOC Commissioner Robert Carter about the new policy.

Diekhoff said a parolee will not be released to Monroe County unless their most recent address was in Monroe County or the parolees have ties to the county, such as family.

The reason for this change, according to Diekhoff, is that many parolees who are not from Monroe County currently choose to be released here because of Bloomington’s superior public services and programs to support homeless people.

“A lot of people started

picking Bloomington to be released to, to take advantage of the services that were here,” Diekhoff said.

I believe this is an immoral premise, that it is better to spread needy people throughout the state than let them gravitate toward the areas with the most social services.

It is inevitable parolees, who often have no place to go after being isolated from society for years, will choose to go to cities with homeless shelters, addiction treatment, community kitchens and other social safety nets.

While Bloomington could certainly have more

social services, it has earned a reputation for having more than other cities and towns in Indiana.

Simply scattering parolees around the state is not a solution. It doesn't fix the problem. It’s just a way of relocating the problem.

Mayor John Hamilton echoed Diekhoff ’s position, saying many parolees released to Monroe County without ties to the area were unsuccessful participants in the parole process.

“Many of them were homeless. They had no connections. That was not a path to get successful release from prison into a new

life,” said Hamilton Assuming Hamilton is correct when he claims parolees in Monroe County without ties to the area are less successful than average at reintegrating into society, he is mistaking the cause of this phenomenon.

Obviously homeless parolees without any family to take them in are going to have a harder-than-average time reintegrating, no matter where they go.

The policy reflects a growing trend in Bloomington. Rather than addressing the root causes of homelessness, the city government is putting homeless people out

of sight and making them someone else’s responsibility.

Many of the actions taken toward that goal, such as anti-panhandling measures and the increased police presence around Peoples Park, were touted during Thursday’s press conference.

Ideally, every county in Indiana would provide stellar social services and Bloomington wouldn’t have to shoulder extra responsibility.

But closing our doors to disadvantaged people in the absence of such a reality is completely wrong.

EVERYDAY ABSURDITY

HOT TAKES

Fostering good relations with people from other countries is beneficial

Editorial Board weekly takes

Carmen Carigan is a junior in law and public policy.

In President Trump’s State of the Union Tuesday night, he said, “Around the world, we face rogue regimes, terrorist groups and rivals like China and Russia that challenge our interests, our economy and our values.”

As he delivered that sentence, my roommate and I stood in a crowded line in Madrid, Spain, waiting for a late-night food truck. People were pushing and shoving, but there was a spirit of friendliness in the air.

When my roommate and I were pushed into a small group of 20-somethings, we naturally turned around to introduce ourselves and apologize for bumping into them. The conversation lasted much longer than that.

The group definitely had accents, but I could not pinpoint from where. We joked about the busy atmosphere. One of the women complimented my shoes, and after about 10 minutes,

my roommate and I had silently agreed these strangers would be our new friends.

Finally, I popped the question, “So where are you guys from?” One of the men, still laughing from a joke, casually said Russia, and for some reason, I froze.

I have never met a person my age from the country I have been raised to distrust.

When I think of Russia, I think of the Cold War, Vladmir Putin and Olympic gymnastics. I have been trained as an American to associate Russia with cold weather, cold people and a lack of honesty.

I had never conceptualized until that moment that people my age, who have the same interests as I do and who laugh at the same things that I do, could come from a place which makes Americans like me very uneasy.

I forced myself to say something so as not to be rude to our new “friends.”

All I could muster out was “very cool.” I dreaded the inevitable next question

that came from them, which was, “How about you guys?

Where are you from?”

I paused, and released a “the United States,” sounding so apologetic for an answer I could not change.

Their faces immediately melted from jovial interest to a standoffish lack of comfort. I could tell their minds were playing the same word association game with U.S. I had just played with Russia.

The sole response from the group was one of the men saying "Woah." We all sort of uncomfortably chuckled. I attempted to crack a bad joke about how cold it must be up there and then we all turned back to our own groups. The conversation between our groups was over.

As I walked away from the food truck, I kept replaying this conversation in my mind. It astonished me how automatically our two groups lost interest in one another based on decisions made by our governments that we had little to no control over.

Through this small, ran-

dom instance, I feel a sense of painful growth and sadness. Recognizing our rival countries are not completely filled with people actively plotting to bring the U.S. down is a seemingly obvious, yet mind-blowing revelation all at the same time.

Somewhere in that large Eurasian power are people just like me and my friends, who love where they come from and who have interests similar to mine.

Maybe if the youth of our nations started talking and finding common interests way before working in government, the world would be a more understanding place. Would this fix the complex economic and political problems among our nations?

No, but in a world where nuclear war seems more possible than many are comfortable with, I am a firm believer that taking small steps to create compassion and understanding can never be a negative thing. ccarigan@umail.iu.edu

IU Board of Trustees approves new construction and degrees

By Peter Talbot pjtalbot@umail.iu.edu | @petejtalbot

A new residence hall, increased room and board rates, new degrees and more were approved by the IU Board of Trustees at last week’s meeting at IU-Purdue University Indianapolis.

All issues discussed at the committee meetings were approved by the board, according to IU’s Twitter page. The proposals included many projects at IU’s regional campuses.

Room and Board A new $99 million residence hall and dining facility to be completed by fall 2020 was approved by the board, according to the IU Twitter page. Its dining hall will be convenient for students in Briscoe, McNutt and Foster Quads.

Residence and dining rates will increase by an average of 2.3 percent in the 2018-19 school year, bringing standard room and board to $6,965, up $157 from the current price.

disorders.

“What it is not is marijuana,” said Michelle Lennis, coorganizer for the event.

Lennis got emotional while speaking, saying how important this product is for so many people in Indiana.

“It’s really disturbing to see folks of stature trying to take that away,” she said.

The House also passed another bill Tuesday regarding CBD oil and industrial hemp.

House Bill 1214 legalizes CBD oil and repeals a previous law that required a CBD registry.

Both House bills now move into the Senate for the second half of the session.

Rep. Jim Lucas, R-Seymour, and Sen. James Tomes, RWadesville, made surprise speeches at the rally. Both have worked for and authored bills this year regarding CBD oil and industrial hemp.

Tomes said he believes more people are supporting these bills now more than ever.

Lucas said although the bills have passed, there are still a lot of people who don’t understand what hemp and CBD oil are. He urged attendees to contact their legislators to get involved.

“This issue is too important to let slip this golden opportunity,” Lucas said.

The current CBD oil and hemp legislation comes after confusion arose last session surrounding CBD oil and its uses. Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a bill into law last ses-

Planning Committee unanimously approved the new rates Thursday.

A slew of other renovations will have begun or been completed by 2020, including Briscoe, Forest, Foster, McNutt, Teter, Wright and Wells Quads, as well as Collins and Read Centers and Eigenmann Hall.

The committee approved a reimbursement resolution for $78.5 million in renovations to the Old Crescent, including Ballantine Hall and Geological Sciences. Another $45 million reimbursement resolution was approved for an academic health sciences building.

Sports A new indoor volleyball and wrestling arena will be completed by September.

The facility will be donated by the Jay Wilkinson family, according to a press release.

Athletic Director Fred Glass delivered the athletics report. He touched on concussions, sexual misconduct and national titles.

IU Athletics is participating in the NCAA concussion assessment research

sion allowing people diagnosed with certain medical conditions, including epilepsy, to use CBD oil.

The law, however, caused confusion over whether the product could be sold in stores. Attorney General Curtis Hill Jr. announced in a Nov. 21 advisory opinion the product was illegal in almost all circumstances.

A week later, Holcomb gave Indiana State Excise Police 60 days “to educate, inform and issue warnings to retailers” and give them enough time to remove products containing CBD oil.

Holcomb announced Friday he would be extending the education period for CBD oil.

He said in a Jan. 26 statement from his office this education period would allow legislators to have more time to clarify the current Indiana law.

He added he would delay the process of issuing citations or removing CBD products from retailers until after the current session ends.

“Lawmakers have indicated they would like more time to consider proposed legislation,” his statement read.

Lelah Jerger, a co-organizer of the event, stressed the importance of contacting legislators, even if someone is only interested in the agricultural benefits of producing the product.

“Let’s stress what it’s going to do for Indiana’s economy, and then, let’s stress what it’s going to do for Hoosiers,” she said.

and education consortium, which provides infrastructure and scientific expertise to study concussions, according to their website.

Glass also talked about the sexual misconduct policy for IU Athletics.

Last spring, IU Athletics adopted a new policy to not accept student-athletes with histories of sexual

violence.

Athletics tells all staff members they have a duty to report sexual misconduct, Glass said according to the IU Twitter page.

“If they fail to do so, they will be subject to sanctions and/or termination,” Glass said, according to the IU Twitter page.

Glass also said football

attendance is up 33 percent from 2008 and men’s soccer had the highest average attendance last season since 2005.

“We have 25 national team titles, Purdue has three,” Glass said, according to the IU Twitter page.

Academics Five new degrees were

approved, three of which will be available at IUBloomington. IU will now offer an M.S. in healthcare management, an online M.A. in English, an online M.S. in criminal justice & public safety, and an online master of liberal studies.

B.A.’s in sociology were approved for IU-Purdue University Columbus.

BOYS WILL BE BETTER ME TOO: MY STORY OF ACCEPTANCE, STRENGTH AND CHANGE

Words by Jake Taylor jdt8@umail.iu.edu

Photo by Noble Guyon nguyon@umail.iu.edu

A

fter years of ignoring sexual misconduct, our world has finally started to listen to those who were unknown, unheard and, most of all, unsupported. We are quickly realizing that sexual misconduct, harassment and assault are, and have been, undeniably common.

I, like many, have spent the last year listening to others’ stories of sexual misconduct and learned from them.

The most important thing I discovered was there is nothing more powerful than sharing your story. Stories ignite conversation and have the potential to make real, meaningful change in our toxic culture.

After a year of listening and discussing others’ stories, I’ve decided to share a story of my own.

I’ve written it first and foremost for myself. Writing down my experience has helped me reflect and heal. I’ve also written it for others.

I’ve written it for other survivors because I want them to feel supported. I want them to know they are not alone and people are here for them.

I’ve written it for the public, so they can recognize and hopefully change how our culture allows for people to harass and harm others without any repercussions.

I’ve also written my story for the perpetrators, my own and others’, because I want them to recognize their own harmful actions and never behave similarly again.

The first step to changing our culture is recognizing how damaging it is.

“Although I can never forgive those young boys for what they did to me, I don’t want justice. I want change.”

MAN UP AND GET OVER IT. My experience started in spring 2017 on the track and field team of Bloomington High School North. It began with the classic homophobia that queer youth are often faced with.

Two male teammates had spent months teasing me, an openly bisexual teen, in what they might have seen as a harmless way. The two adolescent boys would pretend to flirt with me because they either thought it was funny or wanted to see a reaction from me. Or maybe both.

At first, I had just ignored their behavior. When the fake flirting persisted, I sarcastically over-exaggerated a reciprocated fake flirtation.

While I had expected that to make them uncomfortable and stop, it just fueled their behavior. They had gotten a reaction which is exactly what they wanted.

I never interacted with the two boys unless they interacted with me. I didn’t avoid them or tell them to stop and, honestly, I didn’t think much of it.

Although it is not right or fair, when you grow up as a queer kid you get used to dealing with homophobia on a daily basis.

I had much bigger things to worry about. These boys’ insecurities about their sexuality and their masculinity had nothing to do with me.

Their behavior continued for months and I did nothing to combat it or report it.

“After tying my shoes, I lifted my head up and one of the boy’s pants were unzipped, displaying his flaccid penis. ”

STOP BEING SUCH A FAG. One day before practice, I walked into the boys’ locker room to change for practice. The two boys followed me down the row of red lockers. They were whispering behind me and I remember questioning if they were talking about me or something else.

The hairs on my neck stood up and I felt uncomfortable.

They followed me all the way to my locker, even though that’s not where they normally changed.

They stopped and stood about 7 feet away from me. Then they just watched as I changed into my running clothes. I did everything I could to ignore them.

I remember trying to convince myself it didn’t matter that they were looking at me. I tried to tell myself it was about them and they were the ones who were uncomfortable, but it did not work.

I felt objectified, used, humiliated and scared. But, most of all, I felt helpless. I felt weak. It was as if my mouth couldn’t open and my brain stopped working.

I’m used to speaking my mind and talking without fear, so this feeling was unusual and foreign to me. I did not know what was happening or what to do.

I continued trying to ignore him as I sat down on one of the benches in the locker room and leaned over to tie the laces of my blue and gray Asics tennis shoes.

After tying my shoes, I lifted my head up and one of the boy’s pants were unzipped, displaying his flaccid penis.

Both of the boys broke into laughter. I made a face of surprise, which made them laugh more.

I continued to ignore them. The boy who had shown me his penis quickly covered himself. He mumbled something about not meaning for me to see his penis.

His explanation did not mean anything to me. I did not believe him. He meant for me to see it. He was not changing.

I continued to get ready and some more of the boys’ friends came over to where we were. None of them did anything to make the two boys stop.

Instead, the boys who harassed me invited their friends to play a game. In it they would compare the length and girth of their penises. The one with the largest penis would win.

Laughing hysterically, they invited me to play.

Finally, I found my voice.

“For me being the one who likes men, this is a pretty fucking gay thing to do,” I said.

I rushed out of the locker room before I could see their reaction. I was afraid of being further bullied verbally and, even more so, physically. For the rest of the year, I avoided those boys at school.

I decided not to file a report or talk to my coach. Besides sharing my experience with the ones closest to me, I barely talked about it. I mostly wanted it to disappear.

BOYS WILL BE BOYS BETTER. Unfortunately, it did not disappear and it never will. What those boys did will affect me forever. When deciding if I wanted to share my story, I looked at the examples of others’ stories and was overwhelmed by the strength of those who have experienced sexual misconduct.

I remember how weak I felt in that locker room. Seeing other survivors’ strength and resilience is what led me to finally share my experience. I want to be strong like the many who have come forward and shared their stories.

Although I can never forgive those young boys for what they did to me, I don’t want justice. I want change.

This has to be a cultural change. This is deeper than adolescent boys behaving immaturely in a locker room. It’s deeper than one story or one experience. Sexual misconduct affects all of us. To prevent it from happening, we have to change our culture as a whole.

My experience is a result of the current culture we live in — a patriarchal one. I was born into a society that values men more than women.

The first time I realized this was when I was in first grade.

A girl constantly teased me by calling me “girly boy.” I remember being genuinely upset, but I didn’t understand why until later.

Why was being “girly” a bad thing? I had plenty of friends who were girls. I’d always looked up to my mother and my sisters. I wouldn’t have been upset if I had been called “manly boy.” I was upset because I was taught that being feminine was bad.

I’m not the only person who was taught patriarchal values. It’s instilled in many of us at an early age. We learn by example.

In every aspect of life — movies, books, marriage, parenting, toys, relationships, jobs, school — it’s clear how often women are shown to be inferior to men, specifically white men.

We are taught that men are smart, strong, financially responsible, stoic and in control, while women are believed to be weak, unintelligent, emotional and submissive. Being feminine is seen as being inferior.

These images are problematic because they fuel sexism, racism and homophobia. They also contribute to a culture that permits sexual misconduct.

Men are taught to be dominant and are allowed to take whatever they want. This is why sexual misconduct is predominantly performed by men.

It’s perceived as normal, as expected. People think it’s natural and OK for men to behave inappropriately.

The saying “boys will be boys” encompasses this view.

There’s no equivalent viewpoint for women’s behavior.

Women are expected to behave respectfully, as well as handle the burden of men’s behavior.

I am thought of as less of a man simply because I am a bisexual man. For some reason, because I’m attracted to men I am categorized as being too feminine.

This is why those boys thought the way they treated me in the locker room was acceptable and why it was accepted by bystanders.

But we need to change that.

This starts by continuing the conversation on sexual misconduct. The more we talk about it, the more our culture will change.

We also need to teach children to think differently, act differently and to respect all people. It’s not right to accept sexual misconduct or the culture that allows it, but only people within our society can change our culture.

It was just another day at the office for IU’s seniors Amanda Cahill and Tyra Buss.

Not only did the two produce 61 percent of the Hoosiers' points Sunday, but they constantly hit big shot after big shot to hold off the Northwestern Wildcats 7873.

In the first quarter, IU jumped out to a 17-4 lead, evidently showing the effects of having an eight-day rest from its prior game.

The team looked energized as they took a 20-8 lead into the second quarter.

Northwestern started the second quarter with six quick points to pull itself back into the game. That run was put to a halt when Buss knocked in a three, and Cahill got a rebound on the next possession and put it back up to extend the lead to 11.

It was then the Wildcat’s turn to make a run. Led by freshman guard Lindsey Pulliam and sophomore guard Byrdy Galernik, Northwestern was able to rally off seven consecutive points to make it 25-21.

Who else to answer that run than Buss as she scored six straight points herself, all from attacking the paint with her quick first step.

“I just let the game come to me,” Buss said. “Whether that’s scoring or doing other things to help the team win.

I was just being extremely aggressive and had that mindset all game.”

IU took a 35-29 lead into halftime.

The Hoosiers started the third quarter similar to the first and regained another double-digit lead at 46-35.

IU played the next ten minutes up 8 to 12 points with baskets from Cahill and Buss anytime the Wildcats threatened to get close.

That trend ended with five minutes to go in the fourth quarter when the Hoosiers didn’t hit one field

goal for the remainder of the fourth.

Down the stretch Pulliam, who finished with a career-high 33 points, scored 12 straight points to reel her team back into the game, overcoming a 16-point deficit to only trail by three with 1:10 left to go.

Buss said they tried to adjust on Pulliam by switching 1-4 ball screens because when they didn’t switch, whoever was guarding her would get caught on the screen and couldn’t recover in time before she rose up to knock one down.

That worked in the last minute as the IU defenders made it difficult for her to get an in-rhythm jump shot.

However, only leading by three, the Hoosier offense needed a basket.

With 45 seconds left, freshman guard Jaelynn Penn missed an open 3-pointer in the corner, but Cahill got the rebound and called a timeout. Out of the timeout, Buss tried to find Cahill popping out to the three-point line but sophomore forward Abi Scheid shot the gap and stole the pass.

Scheid took it down the court and jump-stopped just above the free-throw line. As the crowd wanted

a travel, Scheid turned around and found Galernik trailing the play for an open 3-pointer that she splashed to tie the game with 12 seconds left.

The ball was in Buss’ hands to try and win the game, but two Wildcat defenders got up in her grill and forced her to dribble it off her leg out of bounds.

Northwestern regained possession with three seconds left.

They inbounded it to junior forward Pallas KunaiyiAkpanah, and she drove it

“It was a fantastic game. I’m really proud of the way our kids handled themselves in overtime. Overall, I’m just happy we escaped with a win.”

Teri Moren, IU Coach

in the paint and shot a floater that went in, but before Northwestern could celebrate, the referees called a travel on her, giving IU possession with 0.5 seconds to go.

Cahill’s shot was blocked at the buzzer and overtime ensued.

This young Hoosier team played in an overtime game once already this season against Virginia on Dec. 18.

In that game, IU was outscored 17-7 in the extra period and lost by 10.

This time the Hoosiers tightened up their defense to make sure it didn’t happen again.

Despite only making one field goal in overtime, IU went 8-8 from the freethrow line to secure its fourth-straight win.

Buss finished the game with a season-high 31 points and Cahill had 17.

Junior forward Kim Royster was a big presence down low for the Hoosiers as well as she also had 17 points.

Cahill said the overtime victory is a great experience for the younger members of the team.

IU is now 5-6 in the conference and evened up their overall record to 12-12.

“It was a fantastic game,” IU Coach Teri Moren said.

“I’m really proud of the way our kids handled themselves in overtime. We came up with some big stops when we had to. Overall, I’m just happy we escaped with a win.”

IU rolls over Marquette and Cleveland State

Senior Guard Tyra Buss shoots for a basket, but misses against Northwestern. After going into overtime, the Hoosiers beat the Wildcats 78-73 on Sunday, Feb. 4, at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

ACCORDING TO MURPH

Women’s basketball shows positive signs in overtime victory over Northwestern Murphy Wheeler is a junior in sports communication.

The IU women’s basketball team's performance during their 78-73 overtime victory over Northwestern on Sunday showed what the Hoosiers could do when finally given some increased rest time before a game.

Coming off a stretch in its schedule in which IU endured countless quick turnarounds that saw them entrenched in close battles with some of the Big Ten’s best teams, the Hoosiers finally got a longer rest period leading up to Sunday’s contest. After getting more than a week to prepare themselves for the Wildcats, the Hoosiers came out of the gates firing on all cylinders.

The Hoosiers’ energy level was at a maximum, their communication on defense was loud and constant and the players seemed loose, with some even cracking smiles on the court on occasion. It led to IU jumping out to a 20-8 lead after the first quarter and seemingly in control moving forward.

However, even with the added energy, the Hoosiers couldn’t keep the Wildcats from clawing back.

Despite trailing IU by as much as 15 points in the final quarter, Northwestern managed to battle

Horoscope

its way into overtime behind freshman guard Lindsey Pulliam’s career-high 33 points.

But it wasn’t enough to stifle Coach Teri Moren’s squad.

It may not have been the prettiest way to close out a game and it might have made Hoosier fans’ hearts skip a beat, but IU showed it had the grit to close out games when they needed to the most.

“I’m really proud of the way our kids handled themselves in overtime,” Moren said. “We came up with some big stops when we had to.”

There were plenty of times when IU’s hopes of securing its fourth straight victory could have gone down the drain. It could have been the back-to-back turnovers by senior guard Tyra Buss late in the fourth quarter. Or it could have been freshman guard Jaelynn Penn’s wide-open potential gamesealing three that fell short in the fourth.

Through all the setbacks, IU remained under control and found ways to counter anything Northwestern threw at them.

Quality looks were constantly created from the Hoosiers’ ball movement offensively, and they were once again efficient from the free throw line, going 19-24 on the day. “We got some good looks

and some of them didn’t always go down,” Moren said. “We only turned it over ten times and had 16 assists on 27 field goals. I think there was a lot out there left.” While Buss dominated the first half by scoring 16 of her season-high 31 points to counter Pulliam’s big day, the Hoosiers also found some success going inside and relying on senior forward Amanda Cahill and junior forward Kym Royster many times in the second half.

Cahill and Royster combined for 34 points and 10 rebounds on the day and attacked Northwestern’s interior defense with a lethal inside-out game. They were able to find each other down low multiple times out of the high post to get some easy and vital baskets down the stretch. It all came together as part of an overall resilient effort from the Hoosiers. It also helped them earn another big win that has gotten them back to a .500 record on the year at 12-12 overall and generating some momentum as their Big Ten schedule slowly starts to ease up after the rough start.

“Hopefully, we learned some really good lessons about how to hang on to a lead from this game,” Moren said. “But we still have to get much better as we continue to play in the Big Ten.”

IU is 6-0 for the first time in five seasons.

In the 2012-2013 season, IU started 8-0, and this year’s team is close to attaining that record.

IU beat Marquette 6-1 and Cleveland State 7-0 in Saturday’s doubleheader at the IU Tennis Center.

Unlike the last time the Hoosiers faced Marquette a season ago, IU took the doubles point and a 1-0 lead.

IU followed up its doubles victory with strong performances in singles. McKamey took down sophomore Lesley Foe 6-2, 6-1 to put IU up 2-0.

Appel put the Hoosiers a point away from a securing the dual after she beat senior Paula Tormos Sanchez 6-3, 6-3 to give IU a 3-0 advantage.

As the results show, Appel played well, but she struggled with her serve at times throughout the match.

In the third game of the first set, Appel double faulted on her serve twice.

“My serve is definitely the shot I’ve been working on the most this season so far,” Appel said.

The ball toss is solid, but Appel said she works on jumping up toward the ball and landing her racquet on it stronger to get spin on the serve.

“When I have my balance and I’m shaping the ball well that’s when I’m hitting my best serves,” Appel said.

Appel has played in the No. 1 singles position since her freshman year. In every singles match Appel has played, she has faced the best player on the opposing team. Appel said she did not expect to be in the No. 1 spot as a freshman, and that was

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 9 — Focus on making money over the next few days. Take advantage of a profitable opportunity. Avoid distractions. Bring home some juicy bacon.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8 — Confer with friends and allies over the next few days.

You have more resources and possible options as a group. Teamwork is the magic ingredient.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 9 — Take time for yourself today and tomorrow. Care for your own needs before helping others. Try a new hairstyle or look.

Pursue personal projects.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8 — A professional test or challenge has your attention.

Compete to advance. Practice and prepare before presenting. Keep to the budget. Smile for the camera.

challenging for her, but now she is used to it.

“I’ve adapted to the whole position and who I’m gonna be facing,” Appel said. “I’ve done a better job with being more comfortable in this role and trying to step up as best I can each year.”

Senior Xiwei Cai missed last weekend’s dual matches against Cincinnati and Xavier due to an injury; however, she was back in the lineup as the No. 4 singles player.

Cai won her first set on a tiebreaker 7-6 (7-5) and won the next one 6-3.

Cai said she was focused on playing smart because she is recovering from injury. She attributed her win to aggressive play and minimizing mistakes.

IU had a 1-0 lead on Cleveland State before the match even started. Cleveland State only had five players in their lineup, so the No. 6 singles position had to forfeit.

Whalen and Zavarotnaya won 6-3 and Appel and McKamey won 6-3 in doubles to earn another point for IU. The Hoosiers won all of the singles matches.

“I see the improvement every week,” IU Coach Ramiro Azcui said. “We challenged them this week to have a better practice than last week, and they stepped it up. We are excited to see they are improving day by day and match by match.”

The three freshmen are a combined 13-1 in singles.

McKamey is 6-0, Bozovic is 5-0 and Zavarotnaya is 2-1.

Azcui said he is proud of the way his newest players have contributed to the team’s success.

Azcui believes depth is the area that will continue to be a strength for IU as the season continues.

New director of education joins Eskenazi

By Christine Fernando ctfernan@indiana.edu @christinetfern

The IU Eskenazi Museum of Art may be closed for renovations, but the museum is still welcoming its new Lucienne M. Glaubinger Director of Education, Heidi Davis-Soylu, to its staff. Davis-Soylu moved into her new office two weeks ago and spoke with the IDS last week about her goals and vision for her new role.

Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra’s concertmaster, Noah Bendix-Balgley, attended IU as a Wells Scholar and graduated from the Jacobs School of Music in 2007. He will be at IU until Feb. 14 to give masterclasses, speak at a luncheon, and perform his violin concerto “Fidl-Fantazye” with the IU Philharmonic Orchestra at 8 p.m. Feb. 7 in the Musical Arts Center.

Alumnus and Berlin Philharmonic concertmaster makes return to IU From IDS reports

The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra’s concertmaster will be at IU now through Feb. 14 as a Wells Scholars Program visiting professor, according to an IU Newsroom press release.

The concertmaster, Noah Bendix-Balgley, attended IU as a Wells Scholar and graduated from the Jacobs School of Music.

The Wells program invites an alumnus each spring to interact with students and teach a short colloquium, said Gwyn Richards, the David Henry Jacobs Bicentennial Dean of the IU Jacobs School of Music, in a press release.

Bendiz-Balgley is returning to IU to teach masterclasses for Jacobs students,

conduct a masterclass for the children of the IU String Academy, and speak at a luncheon for IU students.

Bendix-Balgley will also perform his violin concerto, “Fidl-Fantazye,” with the IU Philharmonic Orchestra at 8 p.m. Feb. 7 in the Musical Arts Center.

The concerto is a klezmer work, which is a type of music developed by the Ashkenazi Jews of Eastern Europe.

Bendix-Balgley is also leading an honors interdisciplinary colloquium for undergraduate students with Alain Barker, Jacobs School of Music director of entrepreneurship and career development.

The colloquium is titled “Art Music in the Contemporary World: An Exploration of Emerging Models.”

Bendix-Balgley said in a press release that he is excited to work with the Wells Scholars and return to the university that prepared him for his current musical career.

“I look forward to working with current Wells Scholars and students at the Jacobs School of Music, sharing insights and ideas about music and the classical music business,” he said in the press release.

Bendix-Balgley spent four years as concertmaster of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra before joining the Berlin Philharmonic in 2015.

Wells Scholars Program director Christoph Irmscher said he is proud of what Bendix-Balgley has accomplished since leaving IU, according to an IU Newsroom

press release.

“He is one of the world’s foremost violinists and an inspiration to our current scholars, and we are delighted that he has come back to IU to share his music and his expertise with us,” Irmscher said in the release.

Richards said she is happy Bendix-Balgley has returned to teach students this spring.

“It’s thrilling to know that yet another member of our alumni has made an indelible mark on our profession,” Richards said in the release.

“We have been looking forward to his visit, and we are excited that he is here and able to share his insight and experiences with our students.”

Indiana Daily Student So, what’s your connection to IU? Heidi I have a lot of connections to IU. I’m so excited to be back. My undergraduate work was at IU Southeast, and then I was here in Bloomington for my master’s and my Ph.D. IDS What has settling in to your new role been like so far?

Heidi It’s been fantastic. I’m just so happy. It’s been surreal to be back on campus in this new role, and the museum was always one of my favorite places and things about Bloomington, so to be able to be here and envision its next steps is just amazing. And the staff I’m working with, everyone, is great. I just feel very fortunate.

IDS So you mentioned envisioning that next step, so what do you see that next step as?

Heidi Well, we are currently closed for renovations, so that’s been giving us an

important and intriguing opportunity to think about what is the Heidi role of eduDavis-Soylu cation and research with our museum. And when open again, we’ll be ready for that next step, to be that preeminent teaching museum.

We want to highlight the importance of education and be this new center for education. We want to create lifelong learners and really figure out how to be better at creating a space for people to come in and learn.

IDS How, specifically, do you plan to do that?

Heidi Well, our renovation plans include plans for a new center for education within the museum to help support that life-long learning. We’re also planning more outreach programs for local schools so that we can give them that early appreciation for art and learning.

IDS What, specifically, are you doing now that the museum is closed?

Heidi We’re still continuing to reach out to schools, so we’ve gone to every second grade in Monroe County. We’ve given talks, and it’s been really well-received.
