TRUMP’S EXECUTIVE ORDERS

THEIR

VOICES Zaid Karabatak, Syria

Fatima Sharisi, Iran

As a child, Zaid Karabatak spent his summers with his family in Syria.

Every year, when he turned the corner into the airport waiting room after landing in Syria, a mob of family members waited while waving, cheering and crying.

Every morning after that, a family member would wake him up in the morning because they couldn’t wait to say “hello.”

Things changed when the Syrian Civil War broke out, keeping Karabatak from seeing his family for six years. While he waited in the U.S., his family members fled the violence as refugees in Canada and parts of Europe.

Fatima Sharisi used to have nightmares about going back to Iran and not being able to return to the United States.

She even missed both her grandfather’s and grandmother’s funerals in Iran for fear of not being able to come back. She doesn’t have the nightmares anymore but what she feared has come true.

Because Sharisi has a single-entry visa, she cannot leave the United States without reapplying for a visa, which prevents her from visiting Iran while she finishes her Ph.D. at IU. The executive order signed last week prevents her application from being accepted. Her parents had planned to visit her this summer, but that’s no longer possible.

“What will happen will happen.”

International students come to IU with the hope of finding home. They shared how President Trump’s executive order will affect their lives and families.

Lamia Djeldel goes back to Algeria every summer to see her family. The news of the executive order last week hasn’t changed her plans.

“What will happen will happen,” she said.

If her visa and passport were not up to date, she said she would be hesitant to travel for fear of being rejected for a visa interview.

The first thing Djeldel does when she wakes up in the morning is check her email. When she got up Saturday morning, she was not expecting to find the message from the provost in her inbox.

“I was shocked and surprised,” she said.

Standing at the stove, he’s 24 and thinner than he was a few weeks ago. He cooks a pan of chicken shawarma, and Beethoven’s symphonies drift from the living room. He hasn’t slept well. When he heard of the Muslim ban, he had already been avoiding the mosque and staying quiet to help his immigration case move as quickly as possible. Some of his friends told him everything would be okay.

“Just marry,” he heard far too many times. “It will all be solved.”

It was never meant to come to that. After studying computer science and graduating from a Baghdad college, he took a job with his friend’s family company.

Novi Maharani said she wants to use her master’s degree in the Kelley School of Business to help Native Americans in California but fears for her own legal status and that of her peers, she said.

Maharani is concerned for her international peers because her Kelley program requires students to help global businesses in different countries. This means that some students may be required to leave the country and come back.

If she had to leave the country to complete her degree, she would be even more concerned.

When Angelo Pereira wants to be reminded of his home in India, he cooks.

One of his favorite dishes is fried fish, a common southern Indian dish that is cooked with chili powder, coriander and ginger paste.

“It’s a good taste, and it takes me back home for a little while.” Pereira said. “I just cook a little bit so that I can relate back to how it might be at home.”

Though India is not one of the seven countries from which travel to the United States has been banned, Pereira’s chances of visiting home in person rather than through food have still dwindled.

Yonsung Lee’s grandmother wasn’t sick yet last time he saw her, but that was two years ago, long before the news came this winter that she’s dying of cancer and that she has a year left to live.

He knows he needs to travel to South Korea see her again, he said.

It might be his last chance, but there’s something inside him whispering that these immigration orders might expand – that even though he’s not from one of the seven countries restricted by the order, it sets a precedent that could some day keep him from returning from the place he’s lived for nearly a decade.

“What happens next?”

Swain Hall renovations cause frustrations

By Emily Berryman eberryma@indiana.edu @Ember_Otter

Scaffolding looms overhead while steel beams and wooden crates of rebar and metal piping litter the lawn.

This is part of the Swain Hall renovation process.

Elizabeth Housworth, chair of the mathematics department, said she looks forward to the installation of an elevator.

“It should help make Swain Hall more accessible,” Housworth said.

“Swain East and Swain West are about half a floor off.”

Housworth said the building will be getting a shared cubicle-style office space for professors and graduate students and new furniture in addition to the elevator.

Housworth said as far as she knows the building is being renovated because of asbestos and low-level radiation found due to the age of the building.

“I have been told all limestone produces small amount of radiation, but apparently Swain has a little more than that,” Housworth said. “The renovations will take care of both issues.”

The entire building is

also getting a new roof.

All the scaffolding clinging to the walls of Swain are there to keep roof tiles from falling on students and professors.

Housworth’s office is in Rawles Hall, which is not part of the renovations. However, she said she appreciates how the

University is looking after everyone who works in Swain. Despite this, Housworth said she is worried about how the construction will disrupt classes.

“The noise will cause some problems with the Math Learning Center,” she said. “That is where we administer late tests and offer

tutoring and aid.”

Ryan Rieker, a psychics student, said during one of his classes, workers would be on the roof and making loud noises. As a result his professor would go out and have a stern word with the workers about it.

The noise is not the only inconvenience from the

construction projects.

Rieker works in a physics lab with professor Rob de Ruyter, a biophysicist, and has had to pack up and move the entire lab from the basement of Swain Hall to a new location.

“We had to move to Center for Exploration of Energy and Matter out north of

45/46,” Rieker said. “But we have had no problems since we moved, although we will have to move back to Swain in two years when the construction is done.”

The date of completion for the project, which includes Swain, Kirkwood and Ernie Pyle Halls, is set for Aug. 1 2018.

Blue lights continue to be under used

By Kelly Evans evanskn@indiana.edu | @knickele5

During the past several years IU-Bloomington has implemented a variety of different campus initiatives across the board in order to emphasize the importance of student safety.

One of the efforts the University has made to protect the safety of students is through the distribution and availability of blue light emergency towers across campus .

These towers have a button that, when activated, calls IU Police Department dispatch. No matter the location, IUPD’s response is immediate.

“We usually respond within a couple of minutes,” Capt. Andy Stephenson said.

Even though the University provides these resources, it’s more common for students to use personal self-defense devices instead.

However, the resources provided by the university remain, relatively unused.

IU-Bloomington has 56 blue light emergency towers. This number greatly exceeds other IU campuses, like IU-Southeast, which only has 13 blue light phone towers, though is a significantly smaller campus. IUSoutheast, however, also has yellow light phones on its campus, which are very similar to blue light phones, except the majority are placed indoors with a few exceptions.

A significant number of IU-Bloomington’s blue light towers are located in campus parking lots and garages, although crime is consistently reported closer to residence halls and downtown where college nightlife is popular.

Full-time IUPD officer Pablo Padilla said the department hasn’t received

many blue light calls recently and when it does, they usually aren’t legitimate.

“About 99 percent of the time it’s a false alarm or someone pushed it when they were walking by,” Padilla said.

The sometimes inaccessible locations and students’ lack of knowledge on how to operate the towers may be the leading reasons for their general under use.

Junior Nicole Downs said the towers are unfamiliar to her.

“I don’t think it would cross my mind to use one of the emergency towers, and I even feel that most IU students are unaware of their purpose,” Downs said.

Although the University offers students these safe outlets in case of emergency situations, it seems more popular for students to take matters into their own hands with personal safety devices.

One appeal of a personal device is the familiarity it provides because students may not always know where the blue light towers are located on campus, Downs said. She said it’s a good idea to carry a defense mechanism, like pepper spray or an alarm device if in an unfamiliar area in the dark.

One of the popular alarm devices on the market currently is the ROBOCOPP Sound Grenade, the world’s smallest SOS alarm, according to the ROBOCOPP website. IU-Bloomington is one of more than 100 college campuses where students use this device, ROBOCOPP public relations director Jill Turner said.

Based in San Francisco, ROBOCOPP’s Sound Grenade reaches 120 decibels when triggered. This alarm is loud enough to incur permanent ear damage.

The company also has a

Blue light safety posts have a red button that when pushed calls the IU Police Department. IUPD always responds to the scene, whether the call is an actual emergency or not. However, many students use personal safety devices instead of the University-provided public ones.

version of the Sound Grenade called the ROBORanger that not only sounds off the alarm but simultaneously calls 911. Despite these devices and many others like them, Turner said this is only the beginning for the product because the company wants to see violent crime eventually become non-existent.

“It’s still not engrained in our minds as the number one safety device like pepper spray is,” Turner said.

However, pepper spray, while usually a student’s go-to defense mechanism, also has problems of its own. Students who aren’t trained in using pepper spray or have never used it before an attack run the risk of actually attacking themselves. Wind plays a major part in the direction of the

spray when activated and, without adequate knowledge and practice, a student could end up impairing themselves.

Whether one would prefer to make use of the towers or use a personal device, these are only two of several other methods students can practice for optimal safety.

The Protect IU website recommends students stay alert and aware of their surroundings, keep hands free and avoid areas that are not well lit.

IU’s website also suggests planning ahead for certain emergencies and always to have a gameplan on the off chance of a risky situation. Whether directly involved in an emergency situation or the bystander of a suspicious scene, it’s always okay to call IUPD.

Inside Buffa Louie’s restaurant students reached into trays of wings and spoke about the Super Bowl, politics and classes at IU College Republican’s semi-annual “Right Wing Night.”

There were enough people to fill the lower level of the restaurant and most of the middle level, but Chairwoman Reagan Kurk said in comparison to previous semesters it was a small turnout.

“It’s the largest outreach event of the semester,” she said.

They weren’t going to address President Trump’s recent controversial executive order, she said. They would save those discussions for official meetings later in the semester.

This event’s purpose was to bring new people into the organization, she said. However, several attendees said the factor that brought them to the event was free wings.

The first order of wings was completely consumed before the end of the line.

Kurk stood on a bench so

she rose above everyone else present to give an official welcome.

“Thank you all so much for coming,” she said. “We’re glad to have you.”

Despite staying mum on the executive order, students still discussed politics underneath the televisions playing the Duke versus Notre Dame game: “The Democrats will stall his progress for the first three weeks with appointments.”

“There’s a lot of misinformation out there.”

“That’s false news.”

However, the dominant discussion throughout the room was not centered on politics but rather introductions and small talk.

“We want to provide a platform where people can get involved and have a better dialogue and put their beliefs into practice,” Kurk said.

The event was sponsored

by Rep. Trey Hollingsworth, R-9th District, and Sen. Todd Young, R-Indiana. The local Republicans paid for the wings. Kurk gave an announcement to thank the two Republicans.

“They’ve always been great partners,” she said.

IU study estimates effectiveness of Obamacare From IDS reports

Americans have been encouraged by Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act to make moves to prevent disease and to take better care of their own health, according to a new study by IU and Cornell University researchers.

Researchers Kosali Simon and Aparna Soni from IU and John Cawley from Cornell worked to determine the effect of “Obamacare” expansions on preventive care and health behavior, especially as the future of the Medicaid expansion is currently in flux in Congress.

Their research determined 17 percent of low-

income adults without children are more likely to have health insurance then before ACA. Another 7 percent are likely to have their own personal doctor, and 11 percent were less likely then before to report economic barriers prevented them from receiving health care.

Participants in the study also were more likely to take preventative measures, like getting flu vaccinations or having a test for HIV, to avoid illness and disease than before the ACA madnate. “Obamacare” requires health insurance plans to cover these types of preventative services without cost-sharing.

“Our findings indicate

that the Medicaid expansions under the ACA succeeded in some of their goals, but other goals remain hard to achieve,” Simon said in a press release.

“More people are seeing doctors and taking steps to safeguard their health.

But there’s been no detectable reduction in obesity, smoking or heavy drinking, at least through our study period.”

While there was no detectable reduction in smoking or heavy drink there was also no worsening of these behaviors. The danger of what is called moral hazard occurs when there is less risk or cost associated with a certain behavior.

Conversely, there was no worsening of those risky behaviors. Researchers were concerned those newly insured would be more likely to engage in risky behaviors because they now pay less out of pocket for health care.

There was no evidence of this phenomenon, which economists call moral hazard, in the data.

Thirty states and the District of Columbia expanded Medicaid benefits in 2014.

Much of the data for this research and study came from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control.

In a story published by the Indiana Daily Student on Monday, Jan. 30, it was stated that Suzanne Kawamleh was a Syrian refugee. She is a Syrian-American, not a refugee, and was telling the story of her family and friends as refugees.

IU helps Navy integrate smart technology

By Cody Thompson Comthomp@umail.iu.edu @CodyMThompson

The IU School of Informatics and Computing started work with the United States Navy on Jan. 25 to integrate smart technology into the country’s defenses.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division, will work with IU researchers to transform military sensor technology, according to an IU press release.

“Artificial intelligence, machine learning and

human-computer interaction are three areas of interest to the researchers at Crane, and also areas of great strength at our school,” said Martina Barnas, assistant dean for research and director of research collaborations at the IU School of Informatics and Computing, said in the release.

According to the release, the partnership is part of a larger goal for the informatics school to create longerterm relationships with NSWC Crane, one of the largest naval bases in the

country that brings significant economic benefits to southern Indiana.

The lead researchers on the project are Sriraam Natarajan, associate professor in the IU School of Informatics and Computing, and Robert Cruise, chief scientist for the Special Warfare and Expeditionary Systems Department at NSWC Crane.

The collaboration will use models to translate information from drones or radar arrays, which produce massive amounts of data, into a more understandable form.

McRobbie awards medal to retired Lilly chairman

“Machine learning refers to the development of algorithms that enable computers to learn and adapt to new situations based upon existing data,” Natarajan said.

To do this IU researchers must have access to real data from NSWC Crane.

A standard Navy monitoring system can use more than 100 sensors to detect a variety of phenomena, like infrared light and microwave emissions, according to the release.

This access to real information, real life problems,

Natarajan said, is what’s most exciting about this opportunity.

“I am trying to provide my students with an opportunity to work with real problems,” Natarajan said. “That will make them more hireable to these top companies.”

He said the military was equally excited about the opportunity to work together.

“With sensor technology growing so advanced and proliferating so quickly, human operators are unable

to keep up with the information coming in,” Cruise said.

Part of the agreement was for the IU School of Informatics and Computing will provide support for a graduate researcher on the project. Natarajan said the fact that a small town like Bloomington can build collaborations of this caliber is very encouraging to other academic researchers.

“It’s great to find a partner in southern Indiana who’s pursuing the same topics we’re studying,” Natarajan said in the release.

Technology in classrooms brings benefits, distractions

From IDS reports Rachel Leffers

IU President Michael McRobbie has presented the President’s Medal for Excellence to John Lechleiter, the retired chairman, president and CEO of Eli Lilly and Company.

Lechleiter accepted the award Wednesday at the Lilly House in Indianapolis. The medal is the highest honor a president of IU can bestow upon an individual. It is given to recognize exceptional work in public service, service to IU or professional achievement.

The medal is made to resemble the silver jewel of office IU president’s wear at ceremonial events.

“For more than a generation, John devoted his professional life to the growth and success of Lilly, one of the strongest anchors of Indiana’s economic landscape and a company that embodies the importance of the life sciences in that economy,” McRobbie said in an IU press release.

Mcrobbie also recognized Lechleiter and his wife Sarah for being excellent philanthropists and friends to the University over the years.

“Their personal financial commitments to countless

drives, pledges, funds, fellowships and programs — as well as John’s stewardship of Eli Lilly and Company’s longstanding close partnership with Indiana University — have been instrumental to the growth and continued success of the IU School of Medicine, the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy and

the Herron School of Art and Design, just to name a few,” McRobbie said.

Lechleiter began his career at Lilly in 1979 when he was a senior organic chemist. He later served in various management roles during a 37-year career.

For most students, internet access is available with a few clicks on their laptops’ touchpads. Although this offers many benefits for students outside of the classroom, it creates more distractions inside the classroom, senior lecturer Steve Krahnke said.

“Doing stuff on your computer other than coursework is just being a jerk,” he said.

Krahnke said he implements a policy that keeps students from using their computers for anything other than taking notes. If students are seen using the internet, they will be marked absent, he said.

Krahnke said he recognizes some students prefer taking notes on their computers, so he allows them to make that choice. However, he said he encourages students to write their notes by hand because of the temptation social media causes.

“I’m not anti-technology.

I just think there are consequences,” he said. “I do think there are very strong negatives and fewer positives.”

The policy in Krahnke’s courses are implemented to limit distractions for students using their computers and students sitting around them. If a student is willing to risk being marked absent to use the internet, that is their choice, but potentially distracting other students is not a choice he allows them to make, he said.

Although Krahnke said he understands students think multitasking is not going to harm their comprehension of course material because it doesn’t affect them immediately, he said it typically backfires on them later.

“Although it can be more efficient to type, I actually find that when I’m in meetings and things now, I still use paper and pencil,” associate professor Andrew Weaver said. “I can sketch things out, I can draw connections and think visually much more effectively on paper.”

Weaver said if he were a student today, he would use pencil and paper. However, he does not have a policy against students using computers or the internet in his courses because he said he thinks it can be useful for

students to have web access.

“If we’re talking about a particular issue, then students can find background information on that issue or find examples online and bring those up and talk about them,” he said.

Weaver said allowing students to access the internet can present problems because it is so easy for students to get distracted. When Weaver has had guest lecturers, he said he will sit in the back and see students on social media, shopping or even playing video games.

“My personal sort of philosophy is that it’s up to the individual student what they want to do with their time,” he said.

Senior Valerie Friberg said she doesn’t mind when professors have a policy against students using their computers because it allows her to focus on the course material and not be distracted by other students.

“I look at other people’s computers a lot to see what they’re doing,” senior Valerie Friberg said. “It’s for sure distracting if they’re not taking notes and are on Facebook or something.”

Player’s Pub provides diverse trivia nights

By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu bemcafee@24601

“What jazz band leader, famous for playing at the Cotton Club, released the album ‘Three Little Words’ and ‘Stormy Weather’?”

“This is Canada’s smallest province, in both land and population.”

What do these questions have in common? They were all questions asked in the Player’s Pub’s “Pub Quiz Team Trivia” category called “Royal Trivia.”

The answers to the questions were Duke Ellington, Prince Edward Island and other answers involving royal titles.

The Player’s Pub’s “Pub Quiz Team Trivia” takes place every week at 6:30 p.m.

Monday and Tuesday. Josh Johnson, the founder of Mid

by Midwest Productions, organizes and presents the “Pub Quiz Team Trivia.”

The game involves six categories with five questions each. The title of each category gives players a hint to the answers.

Monday’s event included categories like “Marine Life,” “Say Cheese,” “‘F’ Words” and “Person, Place or Thing.”

The players are divided into teams based on their table.

Prizes for winning are $40

Mid by Midwest Productions Company had a trivia night Monday at Player’s Pub. the first prize was 440 and free sweet cakes.

for first place, $30 for second place, $20 for third place and free cake for fourth place.

Actor Jesse Eisenberg is one of the regulars at Player’s Pub’s trivia nights.

“Player’s Pub trivia is the most fun thing to do in Bloomington,” Eisenberg said. “Josh comes up with such great questions and really fun categories. It’s a really nice group of people who

come out to play.“ Eisenberg said he is good at sports and geography questions, but he struggles with pop culture and 80s music.

His team did not do well at this event, but he still had a good time and he likes the challenges the categories present, Eisenberg said.

“Josh always has a very clever title that gives you a

hint but still presents a challenge,” Eisenberg said.

At one trivia night, a category called “The Good Journalist” was particularly difficult, he said. The questions in the category involved a who, what, where and when, and the team didn’t realize what the category meant until it was too late.

Eisenberg said he also likes the social aspect of

trivia night.

“Tonight’s more social than it’s ever been because there are more kids,” he said.

“It’s more fun.”

Jeff Smith, 38, who has been a regular at the trivia nights since November, said the events allow him to meet new people.

“My only strengths are pop culture,” he said. “I love to get on teams where

people read a lot of books, or else I am out of luck.”

Johnson said he tries to have diverse categories that challenge people but give everyone a chance to succeed.

“It’s been a really interesting representation of Bloomington,” Johnson said.

“Player’s Pub is such a welcoming place that I think it makes a lot of people feel comfortable.”

Suspect arrested Trump fires acting attorney general in convenience store robberies

By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman

From IDS reports

A man arrested Sunday confessed to a pair of convenience store robberies committed early Saturday morning.

Randall Smith Jr. is charged with two counts of felony robbery and a misdemeanor for resisting law enforcement.

Police responded at about 11:20 p.m. to the 2000 block of North Walnut Street.

Someone had reported a suspicious looking man, Bloomington Police Department Capt. Steve Kellams said.

One of the responding officers saw Smith standing at the south side of the McDonald’s on the 2300 block of North Walnut.

Smith fit the description of a man who allegedly

attempted to rob the Circle K at 4405 E. Third St. and fled.

He was confronted by a clerk, then succeeded in robbing the Village Pantry at North Indiana Avenue and East 12th Street.

When the officer tried to confront Smith, he fled into the tree line, Kellams said.

The officer apprehended him, and Smith fought back before eventually being taken into custody.

He had in his possession a cell phone stolen from the clerk in the Village Pantry robbery.

Smith admitted to both robberies.

He was taken to the Monroe County Correctional Center, where he’s being held without bond.

An Indianapolis man was sentenced to nine years in federal prison for a string of pharmacy robberies in Indianapolis.

Jensen Gayden, 20, pleaded guilty Friday to four counts of interference with commerce by threats of violence and one count of possession of a firearm during a violent crime.

“Pharmacy robberies are not only acts of violence that put our community in harm’s way, but they also contribute to the opioid abuse problem which has become such a scourge in Indiana and around the country,” U.S.

Attorney Josh Minkler said in a press release.

On June 22, 2015, Gayden walked into the Walgreens on Kessler Boulevard North in Indianapolis and approached the pharmacy desk, according to court documents. He handed the pharmacist a note demanding a variety of controlled substances. He ordered the pharmacist to get everything on the list or he was “going to kill everybody in here.”

The pharmacist complied and gave Gayden a range of drugs, including Oxycodone and Percocet, from behind the counter. On June 24, 2015, Gayden attempted to rob the CVS on East Washington Street in Indianapolis. However, when he

handed the pharmacist the note outlining the drugs he wanted, the pharmacist said the store didn’t carry those substances.

Gayden fled the scene and the pharmacist called the police, according to court documents.

Gayden tried again the same day and succeeded when a pharmacist surrendered several pill bottles to him in the CVS on North College Avenue in Indianapolis after he threatened to kill several patrons.

Later that day Gayden returned to the first Walgreens he had robbed. Employees recognized him from the previous robbery as he lingered in the pharmacy area and called the police, according

to court documents. When Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers arrived at the scene, they saw Gayden exit the Walgreens.

The officers chased him down the street. As Gayden ran, he dropped the note he’d been using to commit the robberies.

“This is a 45 sec robbery!!” the note read. “Give me to bag’s you got (45 sec.)” (sic.)

When police apprehended Gayden, they found he’d been carrying a loaded Glock in the waistband of his shorts.

Gayden will have to pay full restitution for the products he stole. He will also pay a $1,000 fine and serve two years of supervised release after his sentence.

Total abortion ban stalls in legislature From IDS reports

A bill that would completely outlaw abortions in Indiana is likely dead for the legislative session after a committee chair decided not to hear it.

The bill had been assigned to the House Committee on Public Policy, but Rep. Ben Smaltz, R-Auburn, released a statement last week saying he would not allow the bill a public hearing.

on both sides of the issue, and I have deep philosophical concerns with government requiring women to carry their pregnancies to term in cases of rape, incest and especially when the mother’s life is in danger,” Smaltz said in a statement released to the Indiana Daily Student.

House Bill 1134, authored by Rep. Curt Nisly, R-Goshen, would allow discretion of how to charge criminally someone who performs an abortion to a county prosecutor. It met

with strong opposition from Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky and other opposition groups.

The bill likely would have been ruled unconstitutional due to its contradiction of Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court case that established a woman’s right to an abortion.

Smaltz addressed this fact in his statement as well.

“Due to strong constitutionality concerns as well as the likely legal effect of setting the pro-life movement back, I don’t believe

it’s the right time to move forward on this issue,” Smaltz said.

Smaltz said in the statement that he’s voted for every pro-life bill that’s passed through the Indiana House since he took office in 2012.

Nisly told the IndyStar that he didn’t see Smaltz’s decision as a done deal. He did not release a statement after Smaltz’s announcement or respond to Indiana Daily Student requests for comment Monday.

Man arrested on rape, burglary charges From IDS reports

Bloomington Police Department officers arrested a Chicago man Sunday after he allegedly broke into a house and tried to put his penis in a woman’s mouth.

Allen Hall, 18, is charged with rape and burglary, both felonies.

Police were called at about 6 a.m. to the 300 block

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 ZAID KARABATAK “Like most other refugees, they were just innocent people just stuck in the middle trying to find a chance,” he said.

Now, after the recent executive order, it isn’t just the war that is keeping Karabatak from seeing his family again.

“It makes it scarier to go see my family and even more scary for them to look for a new life outside of Syria,” he said.

He said this is especially true for his cousin who is studying to be a dentist. While he wants to come here to practice, his chances are now slim, Karabatak said.

“All they want is just an opportunity,” he said. “When we’re born in the United States, we’re given a lottery ticket and a freedom to do whatever you want, but they don’t have that luxury.”

Karabatak said it was seeing refugees turned away at the airport that broke his heart, especially because he knew that those people could have been his own family.

“Imagine selling everything you have for a single plane ticket and then getting to the gate just for someone to tell you that the door’s locked,” he said. “You have nothing to go back to. Everything is gone.”

Karabatak said these actions go against every value the U.S. was founded on when it was called a melting pot and the land of the free. This is why

of South Hillsdale Drive about the attempted rape, BPD Capt. Steve Kellams said.

The 21-year-old victim, who was sleeping at the house after a party, told police she’d felt someone move against her while she tried to sleep, but she’d assumed it was a friend who lived in the house.

When she told the per-

son to stop, she looked up and saw the man, who grabbed her head and tried to force his penis into her mouth.

She turned on the light and got a good look at the man, who fled. The incident woke up her friend, who was sleeping in the same room. The friend later told police a man with the same description had knocked

on the window of the room about 10 minutes before and asked to speak to someone who lived in the house.

She turned him away.

Other people sleeping in the house said they heard noises and saw a flashlight or smartphone light before the incident. Police believe the man entered the house through a window.

The house across the

street also had a party, which was going on when police arrived, Kellams said.

While standing outside the house where the incident occurred, the roomates who’d seen the man in the house saw him through a window of the house across the street.

They pointed him out to police, who took him into custody and identified him

as Hall.

The police report did not note any connection between the two parties, Kellams said. It also did not make reference to Hall being intoxicated.

He was taken to the Monroe County Correctional Center, where he’s being held without bond.

Karabatak has spent hours marching in the cold and yelling until his voice gave out just so people would listen.

“We’re lost,” he said. “We were all just really, really angry. And we didn’t know where to place that anger, so we placed it on each other. We created this environment for hatred when we just needed to come together and talk and listen and protect each other’s values and rights.”

Sharisi was the lack of notice officials gave to people who were coming back to the U.S. Officials could have given returning green card holders more notice so they wouldn’t have been detained in the airports, Sharisi said.

“For some people it might take more than six months then they tell them we didn’t approve your visa,” she said.

“Now, I mean, you have the visa, and you can’t even enter the country. It’s an insult.”

money stopped, and his job was gone.

“You know what, just apply for immigration,” the man who originally recommended IU said. “Don’t go back there.

It’s horrible.”

He called his family and a lawyer.

“We took like two weeks or three weeks to think about it,” he said. “Because you know it’s a very hard decision to be away from a family.”

He applied for an immigration interview, which could take three years. Then, he applied for a work card, which he hopes will arrive in a few weeks, and now he waits, takes online computer science courses, plays soccer and worries.

He’s running out of the money he earned through years of work in Iraq. He estimates he won’t be able to visit Iraq for 11 years, because he will be waiting for an interview, approval, a green card, and a passport. By then, he said his parents will have died.

in the United States may be threatened in the future, she said.

“As an international student, I feel insecure,” Maharani said. “Everything is so uncontained and there is no guarantee that in the future there may not be something that may impact my studies.”

single man,” Lee, 20, said.

The junior in viola performance was born in Seoul and lived there until 2009, when his family moved to Bloomington after his father secured a sponsorship to study law at IU. His parents have since moved to Cambodia, where his father works, and Lee lives in the United States on a student visa.

He’d like to stay in the U.S. after graduation. He’s considering grad school so he can extend his student visa, and marriage has run through his head as well. Among other things, the two years of military service required of men in his home country is a deterrent. As a musician, he said two years without practice would be career suicide. Now, he feels like the future of visas and green cards in the U.S. is up in the air.

The feeling Lee can’t shake about going home has come alongside some other strong emotions: the anger that boiled up when he saw the email sent to international students Saturday, the hope that almost brought him to tears when he heard of the spontaneous protests at airports Saturday night.

Korea knows about protests. He joined them as a sixth-grader when the U.S.Korea Free Trade Agreement spurred national tensions.

He hadn’t seen a protest that stirred him in the same way in the U.S. until the women’s marches and airport protests, he said. He thinks this generation of Americans has finally caught on to how to use protest to elicit political change.

FATIMA SHARISI She has not seen her family since August 2015 and has not traveled back to Iran for fear of being rejected for a new visa and putting her studies at risk, so her parent’s visit was her only chance to see them until she graduates.

The visa application process was already complicated for Iranians. Because there is no U.S. embassy in Iran, Iranian citizens who want to apply for American visas must fly to Armenia, Dubai or Turkey to apply for their visas. The process can sometimes take longer than six months.

Then people are given a time limit to get to the U.S., which means they must be prepared to leave immediately upon approval of their visas, sometimes with only a few days to sell their belongings and buy a plane ticket.

The process can be expensive and stressful, Sharisi said.

“At least when they find them, they should have given some time to people so that people knew that they might have some trouble entering,” she said. “It’s totally unfair.”

Particularly upsetting to

LAMIA DJELDEL “I said, ‘Seriously? Is this an email one can receive on a Saturday morning?’”

After receiving the email, she immediately shared it on Facebook. Lamia says that she is not concerned about herself and is not afraid, because Algeria is not on the list of banned countries and she does not need to apply for a visa renewal this year.

However, she is concerned for her friends who are from the banned countries and for what the future might hold for students from other countries.

“Just because Algeria is not on the list doesn’t mean that I do accept this,” Djeldel said.

“It’s not about Algeria being on the list. It’s about the things that are wrong in many ways.”

ANONYMOUS The company sent him to the U.S. to study English for a few months, and in December 2015 he arrived in Bloomington. He took his first IU classes in January 2016, and by the end of February, the company had been threatened and attacked. The scholarship

NOVI MAHARANI “Some of us may need to travel outside of the U.S., but in my case I will help Native Americans, so I don’t have concerns about that,” Maharani said. “But I understand that some of my friends may have concerns about helping businesses overseas when they want to come back.”

Indonesia has a primarily Muslim population. Although Indonesia is not on the list of the seven banned countries, the email and bans are still cause for students like her to feel like their studies and stays

ANGELO PEREIRA He usually goes back to see his family in India once every four months. Although he didn’t plan to make his usual trip there this summer anyway, he would be afraid to try because his visa is expiring soon, and he would have to apply for a new one in order to come back to the United States. The renewal of that visa may be more difficult now.

“What happens next?”

Pereira said. “What if there is any kind of visa work or if they just turn around and tell me to go back?”

Pereira wants to stay in the U.S. to work and said he is worried that the order will impact the number of work visas that may be issued. Even if he is issued a work visa, he says he is not sure how long the term will be for and if it can be revoked at any point.

Pereira said he is concerned but believes that many of his peers have reason to be more worried than he is because of their Middle Eastern backgrounds.

“It’s just very uncertain.”

A second home Boxing is about more than throwing punches.

At B-Town Boxing Rob Scardina, his wife and stepson have used it to form a family.

PHOTOS BY REBECCA MEHLING | IDS

Josh McRoberts, Dianna Scardina and her husband, Rob Scardina, stand outside the boxing ring during a practice in January. Rob is teaching Josh how to train other boxers and said he believes he’ll be able to take over B-Town Boxing in four or five years.

By Jordan Guskey jguskey@indiana.edu | @JordanGuskey

T

he coach’s knees are bent, his shoulders hunched.

He slowly jabs twice with his left hand and throws an uppercut with his right.

Sweat glistens on his forehead as he shows his boxers how to throw the combination of punches. The lights shine down on the 49-year-old. Rob Scardina, who everyone calls Coach Rob, stands in the center of the ring, where he is surrounded by the young men of B-Town Boxing’s competitive team. Some mimic his movements.

The coach’s sparring partner is Josh McRoberts, his stepson. Josh raises his hands to meet each punch.

Each connection is met with a light smack, but as Rob speeds up through the combo, Josh quickly becomes flustered.

“Shhhiiii ...” Josh catches himself mid-swear.

“That’s more for the swear jar,” Rob says, cracking a smile.

“I didn’t even say the whole word,” Josh says.

“I know what you meant,” Rob says.

Dianna is in the office taking care of the business aspect of the gym and didn’t hear Rob admonish Josh but she agrees with his rule.

B-Town Boxing’s team is made up of young men from their late teens to mid 20s. Their coach makes them pledge to keep their conversations clean just as he makes them pledge to stay out of trouble and not get into fights outside the gym. Josh’s slip up costs him $1 and ups the contents of the jar to $4. Not too long ago it had $5, but someone lifted the change.

The last thing Rob wants is for one of his boxers to walk into a job interview and be so used to dropping f-bombs that a few slip out. Boxing is about controlling emotions. It’s about more than throwing punches.

As Rob tells his boxers, “There are a lot of worse things that can happen in your life besides losing a boxing match.”

side of the club, she walks around during practice.

As she greets every boxer she asks how they’re doing and sometimes playfully chides them. One showed up to a weekend sparring practice dressed in a hoodie and pajama pants.

“You just wake up?” she asked.

“I’m ready to go back to bed after this,” he said.

Dianna asked another how his recent newborn was doing. The baby just had a little stomach ache. When it gets warm enough that colds aren’t a concern, she’s offered to watch the

shot to his pride. Tommy won his first competitive bout in early December.

Marquese King is one of the gym’s resident Indiana Golden Gloves champions. The 25-year-old won a title in 2015 and is a veteran on Coach Rob’s competitive squad.

Alberto Sostre hopes to become an ambassador for the Netherlands and fight for the rights of the disabled worldwide. The 26-year-old IU grad student is in his third year with Coach Rob and speaks English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch and German. He has even earned an academic scholarship from the Indi-

. . .

Boxing is a primal sport that leaves people bloodied and bruised.

Boxing also demands respect, dedication and resilience. It’s methodical and full of opportunities to learn. Rob and Dianna Scardina want the young men at their gym to win, but more importantly, they want to see them mature.

B-Town Boxing, located in The Warehouse on South Rogers Street, had its first callout meeting in December 2013. Since then it has grown from a gym populated by just Rob and his stepson to one frequented by 30 to 40 people daily and a 14-member competitive team.

When Rob walks around the gym his face is often scrunched. He looks like he wants to beat someone up but never raises his voice. He’ll tell people why they’re getting hit and how to make opponents miss, but he doesn’t hover over their shoulders. When Dianna isn’t taking care of the business

baby for him at practice.

Rob and Dianna want each boxer to be successful. One day they’ll stop boxing, and when they do Rob and Dianna want them to have learned truths inside the ring they can apply elsewhere.

Tommy Butler, 22, uses boxing to push himself and combat bouts with depression. The quiet IU senior hopes to use a Fulbright scholarship to teach English in Spain for a year after he graduates this spring. Outside the ring, he brushes off confrontation. Inside the ring, each hit is a

ana Golden Gloves organization. Rob has become a father figure for him, and Alberto knows he can talk to Rob about anything.

“You have a life outside the sport,” Alberto said, “and he and Dianna really do care to know what’s going on in your life.”

Josh, Rob’s stepson, is a 2014 Indiana Golden Gloves champion. The 19-year-old spent fall 2015 and spring 2016 at IU but isn’t in college anymore. He decided to focus on boxing.

He wants to become a coach like Rob. Egos take away from the gym’s

ability to allow its boxers to flourish. Every now and then Rob said a newcomer who thinks they know it all because they’ve seen the “Rocky” movies comes through. That attitude threatens the existing family atmosphere. Some just can’t handle a loss.

In the ring, a fighter is always alone, but Rob and Dianna and a boxer’s teammates and friends help them get there. . . .

Rob and Dianna met in June 2010.

Both already had five kids of their own — 10 total.

Rob fell in love at first sight and texted her a proposal 15 days after their first date. He asked in person the next day just to confirm.

“I guess I was trying to feel her out and make sure she wasn’t going to turn me down,” Rob said. “Then, the next day, I figured I better seal the deal and make it official and do it the right way.”

They spend nearly every minute of the day together. They share a cellphone. Together they run B-Town Boxing. Through six years of marriage Rob is adamant they haven’t argued once. He knows it sounds crazy.

“If he’s thinking of something, within seconds we’re both thinking of the same thing,” Dianna said. “That happens daily.”

Both agree the gym doesn’t exist for them to make as much money as it could. Other gyms prop up their best boxers and use the rest as bodies to ready the higher-profile members for fights. Rob and Dianna don’t want to do that because it would cause the gym to lose its family feel.

They don’t really eat out, but Rob worries about how they’re going to fix the van if it breaks down. But that’s all right.

“We have a roof over our heads.

We have cars that run most of the time. We have food on the table,” Rob said. “What else can you really ask for?”

Dianna agonizes over their bills.

Rob finds a way to calm her down.

“I don’t even second guess it when he says everything’s going to be okay,” Dianna said. “When it comes out of his mouth I know everything’s going to be okay.” . . .

It was from Olympian and heavy weight champion George Foreman that Rob first got the sentiment that there are a lot of worse things that can happen in life besides losing a boxing match.

It’s one he’s relayed to his boxers and was reminded of the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.

Dianna drove to Purdue to pick up one of her sons, and when she got home didn’t give much thought to the swelling in her left leg. Dianna isn’t one to just sit around. She started to get ready for practice that night, but Rob told her no. He wanted her to stay home and keep her leg elevated.

The next day the swelling SEE BOXING, PAGE 11

BLABBERMOUTH

Editors Dylan Moore and Zack Chambers opinion@idsnews.com

EDITORIAL BOARD

Make Richard Spencer afraid again On the day of Trump’s inauguration, neo-Nazi and white supremacist Richard Spencer, who is infamous for advocating ethnic cleansing, was punched in the face by a stranger during an interview.

The punch to Spencer’s face has created a firestorm of debate online. Many people are arguing that hitting anyone, no matter their ideology, is fundamentally wrong.

Some are calling the mystery assailant a bully for his attack on the known Nazi sympathizer.

Fundamentally we, as a society, uphold the thoughtful engagement of differing viewpoints, and sure, in theory all viewpoints are valid and deserve to be heard.

However, when the right to thoughtful debate between differing ideologies is used to justify extreme ignorance and hatred, that right is being abused.

Different viewpoints may be a preference of milk chocolate instead of dark or even something as serious as how to reform the American health care system.

The viewpoint that people of color are sub-human and ethnic cleansing is necessary is not a legitimate viewpoint at all and should not be entertained or tolerated.

Neo-Nazis and their sympathizers need to know that their school of thinking is not welcome in this country in any way, shape or form.

They lost their right to peaceful engagement when they started advocating for the genocide of millions of people around the world.

We’re living in a time in which neo-Nazis feel comfortable and supported enough to preach their viewpoint as though it’s a legitimate political ideology, and for many reasons, neo-Nazis are being emboldened by the actions of the Trump administration.

That should scare you.

It certainly scares me. Any time that neo-Nazis feel emboldened, it is time

to take a step back and evaluate.

In my experience as a student people love to talk about what they would have done had they been alive during the Third Reich.

When confronted with the history of so many Germans quietly allowing their Jewish neighbors to be sent to camps in the countryside, many modern Americans say “I would have fought back” or “I never would have let that happen.”

Well, it’s time to wake up.

With neo-Nazis feeling emboldened, it is time to take action.

I think writer David Slack phrased it well when he tweeted Friday, “You’re alive now. Whatever you’re doing is what you would’ve done.”

It’s time we all got up together and actively fought this.

Take action.

Go protest the ban on refugees at your local airport.

Remember Anne Frank, arguably the most famous victim of the holocaust, was denied entry into the United States as a refugee just as so many are being denied entry now.

This is not the time for neutrality or tolerance of extremist hatred. Our current political climate reeks of the early stages of Hitler’s reign, and neo-Nazis are more excited and optimistic than they have been in decades.

If the happiness of neoNazis around the country is any indication, this administration has already failed to “Make America Great Again.”

The happiness of neoNazis is incompatible with America being great. These are people that want to exterminate their fellow Americans simply because of who they are.

Maybe if we the people all band together, we can “Make Nazis Afraid Again.” rjdague@indiana.edu

Extinguishing Tesla’s spark A bill at the Indiana Statehouse would turn Tesla’s business model on its head if legislators allow it to become law Indiana lawmakers have recently introduced House Bill 1592 to the floor under the guise of protecting the business models of car dealerships.

This is the second bill of its kind — the first was House Bill 1254 from early 2015. The first bill had little success, and the Editorial Board believes House Bill 1592 is doomed to the same fate.

The bill essentially bars private electric automobile manufacturers from selling their vehicles directly to their consumers.

While refraining from mentioning any specific manufacturers, Tesla Motors is the only company that meets the criteria in the bill.

If the bill were to pass, Tesla would no longer be able to sell directly to its Indiana consumers by the year 2019.

Tesla’s business model is well known in Indiana.

anymore, which blatantly exposes the agenda of Indiana dealerships.

It’s no secret that car dealerships are large and politically influential.

The National Auto Dealers Association contributed $3.2 million to political groups during the 2012 election cycle.

These dealerships prioritize issues such as blocking right-to-repair legislation, which bars private mechanics from accessing information about the parts of their cars.

It is clear that the main motivation for these dealerships is making sure they remain ahead of any private competitors. It is apparent that Tesla’s way of doing business, where they sell directly to consumers instead of going through a middleman in the form of a dealership.

Tesla’s business model has obviously become

Keystone Mall has a Tesla store where customers can buy vehicles directly, and they plan to build a maintenance and service center in the Castleton area in the near future.

If this bill were to pass, these stores would have to close. Due to the local store locations, Tesla has found many loyal customers in Indiana. The outrage from Indiana consumers is what caused House Bill 1254 to fail.

With a service and maintenance center in the works, this bill has even less grounding than it did in early 2015.

The bill was introduced to protect dealerships from the competition manufacturers like Tesla provide, but lawmakers made the argument that there was nowhere consumers of Tesla could conveniently have their car serviced.

This isn’t the case

a threat to those big dealerships.

The Editorial Board believes Tesla should not be barred from selling directly to its consumers.

Any complaint that Tesla does not adhere to the same safety standards as any other manufacturers are not grounded. Tesla’s Model S received the highest safety rating of any car in history in 2013 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

If this bill were to pass, it would be very upsetting for Tesla consumers in Indiana.

The manufacturer has many loyal customers that prefer the efficiency of the business models and the automobiles in general.

Tesla helps break the monopolistic effect of United States car dealerships by directly providing high-quality vehicles for many Indiana citizens and should be allowed to continue.

The biggest problem facing IU

We must keep up with the news even when we would rather not

IU, in the vision section of its website, claims to have core values including “excellence and Innovation,” “sustainability, stewardship, and accountability for the natural, human, and economic resources and relationships entrusted to IU,” and “application of knowledge and discovery to advance the quality of life and economy of the state, the region, and the world.”

IU has great, though not unfair or uncommon, expectations for the goals of its students and faculty. People who are part of the community are asked to spend their time adding value to the people and the world around them.

Adding value seems like something everyone should be striving to do.

To me, there is no purpose in living on this earth if you are not somehow contributing to it.

IU seems to share this philosophy , considering the words contained in its mission statement above.

This statement speaks to the need to live for reasons beyond oneself.

In addition to this, the numerous amount of clubs and organizations, many dedicated to helping those who cannot help themselves are further evidence of the need IU and its students place on helping others and doing good.

To understand the concept of adding value and how it fits into psychology, visualize Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.

Maslow describes the average human’s needs to come, in order, through the

following five stages — physiological, safety, belongingness and love, esteem, and self-actualization.

This hierarchy is organized as a pyramid. Much like the food pyramid you probably saw in elementary school, the lower levels are supposed to come first.

The first two stages are a fulfillment of the basic survival needs of living things.

The latter three stages, however, all speak to the deep and intrinsic need of humans to know they are valuable and worthy of being loved.

If Maslow were to have died soon after creating this hierarchy, it would seem we humans were forever destined to be searching desperately for value through belonging, building our selfesteem, and searching for our passions.

However, sometime after Maslow created his hierarchy, he realized that self-actualization is the epitome of human experience. With this in mind, Maslow gave us more information beyond his original hierarchy.

He created another level — self transcendence — in his pyramid.

Self-transcendence was what Maslow considered “beyond need,” and claimed when people had fulfilled all their needs, they turned to altruism and charity; helping others.

IU has the mission and expectation to help students to get beyond their needs so they may help others who are still in need.

IU expects its students to get to a point of adding value to others.

STEVEN REINOEHL is a sophomore in business.

However, IU’s culture is made up glaringly of people not adding value to others but rather searching desperately for value to be given to them.

Many business and science and education and fillin-the-blank majors pour their hearts and souls into achieving in the classroom.

They stress and stretch and sacrifice to be told by little numbers and letters in the grade book that they are worth loving.

Thousands of students sacrifice their health and future to participate in greek life and hope if they just have enough brothers or sisters like them their existence will be worth it.

The vast majority of the IU community is stuck in the top three sections of Maslow’s hierarchy, searching earnestly for something, anything, to tell them they are lovable.

Herein lies IU’s most fundamental problem.

How do you convince 46,000 people they are worth loving?

I don’t know, but recognizing this is a problem that covers all demographics within IU is an important start.

This means all people, from wealthy, straight, white men to the poor, the oppressed and the broken and the downtrodden, the most vulnerable among us need to hear they are loved, they are worth loving, and who they are is what makes them lovable. sbreinoe@umail.iu.edu

Last week after four classes in a row, I needed a mental break before studying, so I turned to Twitter.

Instead of relaxing news, however, I saw that the Trump administration had begun reviewing some of the proposed EPA regulations from last few months of the Obama administration. Since Trump and his nominee for the head of the EPA, Scott Pruitt, have expressed doubt about the existence of climate change — author’s note: it does, in fact, exist — this wasn’t exactly the best of news.

My stomach soon began to hurt. Last night I saw a Tumblr post that perfectly described my dilemma. It said, “Searching for that fine line between ‘I need to stay informed’ and ‘I can’t take any more of this.’”

I think it’s fair to say I’ve taken steps to keep myself informed. I follow news

accounts on Twitter and receive daily news briefings in my email. I like the feeling of knowing what’s going on in the world, but recently knowing what’s going on in the world has begun to take a toll on me.

I’m often hesitant to open my Twitter feed because I’m scared to see what’s on there.

There’s news that the Keystone XL and Dakota Access Pipeline projects are being revisited by the new administration.

There is news that Trump has signed an executive order on Holocaust Remembrance Day to halt all refugees from entering the country for 120 days — a bitter irony given that the United States denied entry to Jews during WWII. There is news that Trump will soon be picking a Supreme Court nominee, one that will likely be amenable

to the idea of overturning Roe v. Wade.

As disheartening as these recent events are, we need to keep up with them so we can hold Trump accountable for his actions.

Continue to bear witness.

Continue to remain vigilant.

Continue to protest when faced with policies that are antithetical to the ancient and fundamental principles of our nation.

Every time I encounter a news update that I’d really rather not see, I’m tempted to unsubscribe from all the news accounts I follow, but I can’t do that. It’s my job — and yours, too — to do my duty as a citizen of this democracy by paying attention to it, contributing to it and making my voice heard. acgroove@umail.iu.edu

Cherub brings tour to Bluebird

By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

A duo combining funk, dance, rock and electronic sounds will perform at the Bluebird Nightclub as part of the bar’s upcoming lineup.

Cherub, made up of musicians Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber, will perform at 9 p.m.

Feb. 12 in the venue alongside the Floozies as part of the “Your Girlfriend Already Bought Tickets Tour.”

“Bloomington was one of the first places we ever went on tour,” Kelley said. “I enjoy the town – we always know it’s going to be rowdy for the show and after the show, you can’t really ask for more.”

Cherub is known for hits such as “Doses & Mimosas,” which achieved 41 million Spotify streams. The duo is signed with Columbia Records and has also released “Bleed Gold, Piss Excellence.”

Both Kelley and Huber starting playing music on their own before uniting at Middle Tennessee State Uni-

versity to form Cherub, Kelley said.

“I got started playing music in third grade because I liked the way electric guitars looked and thought, ‘Man, I should start playing,’” Kelley said. “When I met Jason I thought, ‘Man, he’s a pitcher, he’ll throw the ball.’ I knew I would catch his pitches.”

For Huber, the motivation to play was something that came from a moment of filmbased inspiration, he said.

“I wanted to teach myself how to play the theme song from the movie ‘The Rock’ with Sean Connery, that was literally the first thing I taught myself to play myself on the guitar,” Huber said.

The inclination to keep playing is one that is rooted in a passion, Kelley said.

“Sometimes I just keep playing because I literally can’t stop,” Kelley said.

“Sometimes I keep playing because of the people, and sometimes I keep playing because of my family. Most importantly I keep playing for

myself.”

Inspiration is what keeps Huber interested in the art, he said.

“I always call it ‘the thing that keeps me up at night’ – there’s this little bug in the back of your brain that puts ideas in there when you’re trying to sleep, and you have to stay awake and figure out what those ideas are,” Huber said. “It’s a little thing that won’t leave you alone in a good way.”

The Floozies and Cherub have often played the same festival venues, though Huber said they have not performed together yet. Huber added that Cherub looks forward to the opportunity to share the stage and make magic.

“We’re all part of a large group of friends that would see each other at all these festivals, kick it backstage, spitball back and forth about making music or going on tour together,” Huber said.

“It’s hard to actually get the a chance to link up. We’ve been talking about putting together

CHERUB Tickets $20 9 p.m. Feb. 12, the Bluebird a tour with the Floozies for years. As far as our fan bases, it’s all the same people that all like going out and listening to good music and going out and having a good time.”

Kelley said the show will be a fun and valuable experience for anyone who wants to enjoy good music and good company.

“For anybody that hasn’t come to our shows, I promise 100-percent attention to everyone that’s in the crowd, I promise 100-percent effort from myself, and I promise 100-percent dedication for my show,” Kelley said. “Altogether, that’s 300 percent.

That’s three times as much as tests in school. If you come to our show, I promise that our show will be more valuable than your college education.

If that’s not the best class you’ve ever taken, I don’t’ know what is.”

MAN IN MAASTRICHT

A trip to Berlin expands political perspective My decision to spend this semester in Maastricht, Netherlands, was based largely on the feeling of the surrounding community and the quality of the education I’ll receive. The opportunity to spend nearly five months across an ocean doesn’t come often, so the possibility and ease of travel played a large role as well.

Last week I traveled to Berlin by bus on the first of many journeys I’ll take around western Europe.

After 1920’s Greater Berlin Act, the city became the third-largest municipality in the world behind London and New York City. Obviously, quite a bit has occurred since then to lead to the loss of this distinction, but the sprawling city still feels massive to outsiders.

Today, more than 25 years after the reunification of Soviet East Germany with its liberal counterpart in the West, reminders of Berlin’s complicated history are still painfully and clearly evident.

In East Berlin, huge, bland apartment buildings that span entire city blocks make the city feel more like New Moscow than the

present-day German capital.

Street vendors peddle Cold War memorabilia to tourists, and sometimesgaudy attempts to recreate pre-war structures cover the city. Very few buildings have not been restored or rebuilt following the carnage suffered during World War II, but sites including the Reichstag, which houses the German parliament, and the Brandenburg Gate provide plenty of excitement for those interested in history.

As one would expect to be the case in a city of Berlin’s size, English is fairly ubiquitous. In situations where this was not the case, my two years of high school German courses generally failed me.

Over the course of my several days in Berlin, I was most shocked by Germans’ attitudes toward politicians and governmental affairs.

Rather than taking up residence in the Bundeskanzleramt, Germany’s equivalent to the White House, Chancellor Angela Merkel and her husband instead opt to live in their private apartment in Berlin’s Mitte neighborhood with only a small team of police standing guard.

Living in the United States has conditioned me to infer that Merkel must be forced to deal with raucous protestors surrounding her home 24/7, but this is surprisingly not the case. I spoke briefly with one of the policemen standing watch, and he explained that people generally respect the chancellor’s privacy and instead choose to demonstrate at the Reichstag.

“People are calmer,” said the officer, referring to Germans’ political disposition relative to that of Americans.

Granted, our new president is more than a bit more controversial than his German counterpart, but it’s difficult to imagine President Trump living a simple and private life at Trump Tower, which today is almost perpetually surrounded by passionate demonstrators.

Some might say the timing of my departure from the United States was convenient, given the whirlwind of executive orders signed by Trump and the wave of mass demonstrations sweeping the country. In Maastricht and Berlin, it’s been easy to feel worlds away from the chaos back home, but small

Daniel Kilcullen junior in Information Systems, Operations and international business

reminders are ever-present.

On my final day in Berlin, I jaunted through a craft fair in a neighborhood near Berlin’s Museum Island.

One artist had produced several pieces headlined with the phrase, “America First.” Characterized depictions of Trump with the word “no” printed underneath them made me realize that although the language barrier prevented the artist from explaining his true inspiration, his art was not meant to praise the United States.

Given the state of affairs back home, the fact that my first trip took me to Berlin was apt.

I wish not to draw direct comparisons between a certain German despot and our current president, but it should serve as a dire reminder of the things that can occur when those in power are not checked and challenged and of the longlasting effects such disasters can create.

Olivia Ranseen, a sophomore environmental management major, found a way to combine her passion for environmental sustainability and her love for theater.

In high school, Ranseen said, she considered theater to be a hobby.

It was something she loved but didn’t see herself pursuing in college.

However, Ranseen said once she arrived at IU she became involved with the 2020 Sustainability Scholars program.

“Theater is a change agent, right?” Ranseen said. “It brings a lot of reflection on social issues and ethical issues. That is what theater is supposed to do, rather than be there for just entertainment, and I think (environmental sustainability) is a major issue of our time.”

During Ranseen’s freshman year she worked on replacing batteries in the Ruth N. Halls Theatre. Ranseen said they cut down from using more than 600 alkaline batteries a year in to now just using about 20 rechargeable batteries for the microphones.

Along with batteries Ranseen discussed how she worked with IU facility operations to regulate temperatures in Ruth N. Halls theater and Wells-Metz theater to save energy.

“Theater is kind of sustainable within itself, it’s just that there are certain parts that need to be improved,” Ranseen said.

“It’s really important to be positive about that, I’ve discovered.”

Ranseen said she has received an additional $3,000

grant to continue her work through her sophomore year.

She works closely with her mentor Paul Brunner, technical director and head of the theatre technology program. The two are currently working on an article about sustainable theater for the theatre trade journal “Theatre Design & Technology.”

“I kind of act as a liaison, or an environmental advocate,” Ranseen said. “I kind of worry that once my project is over that it won’t be maintained.”

Katie Horwitz, director of “The Duchess of Malfi” at IU, has been very welcoming toward Ranseen and others to improve sustainability in her production.

Ranseen said she is focusing on incorporating ECOR, a wood alternative, into the set design.

“We have been looking into waste diversion programs but also ways to limit the amount of wood that we use,” Ranseen said.

To help bring more people into Ranseen’s focus, she said the production has elected Caroline Lee as the so-called ”green captain” for the team to make sure that rehearsals take sustainability into account.

Ranseen often said sustainability is a small niche that many are not aware of.

She is currently working to figure out how to continue the combination of sustainability with IU theater for the future.

Even though Ranseen is going to study abroad next semester and cannot commit to another research project, she said she plans on continuing to help with sustainability through theater. She is passionate and believes there is still work that she can assist with.

IU looks to keep momentum

By Josh Eastern jeastern@iu.edu | @JoshEastern

In physics, momentum can be defined as the quantity of motion an object has.

In sports, momentum can be looked at very similarly.

Teams on the move and headed in the right direction have momentum; teams like IU women’s basketball right now.

After knocking off Wisconsin on Sunday in Madison, Wisconsin, for the first time since 2009, the team is establishing their momentum.

The Hoosiers have now won three straight and are heading into the latter half of the Big Ten slate.

IU Coach Teri Moren talked about needing a different mindset going into road games, and that certainly was the case early Sunday. Wisconsin came out to play, but IU

eventually put its host away.

With the second of two straight road games coming on Thursday, the stakes are getting higher.

“We have to steal a couple on the road because we are taking care of business at home right now,” Moren said. “Our kids know that.

I’ve said this, as much as we don’t talk about what the Big Ten looks like, they pay attention to that. The only thing that we get them to focus on in their mindset is the next game.”

Moren has said the Hoosiers set up their nonconference schedule to gain experience playing on the road.

They played seven nonconference games outside of Indiana, and are 2-2 in the Big Ten away from home thus far.

With IU currently in a three-way tie for fourth place in the conference with Purdue and Northwestern at 5-3, the road games

remaining on the Hoosiers’ schedule are crucial.

Right below IU with four losses are Michigan State and Iowa — two teams the Hoosiers will face coming up. Luckily for the Hoosiers, IU has to play Maryland and Ohio State, who seem a lock to finish first and second in the conference, just once each.

“In order to separate yourself, you have to win games,” Moren said. “That’s kind of what we’re trying to do right now. The Big Ten is such a grind. Any night you have to be prepared for anything. Everyone is going to give us their best.”

Momentum seems to be on IU’s side right now.

The Hoosiers still have tournament hopes and the month of February will go a long way in determining whether or not they will be dancing for a second straight season.

According to ESPNW’s

Bracketology as of Monday, the Hoosiers sit in the “First Four Out” category, meaning they are one of the best four teams that aren’t currently in the tournament.

The remaining schedule could end in a strong finish.

The Hoosiers will be host to the RPINos. 19-, 32-, 41and 51-ranked teams while traveling to the Nos. 65-, 163-, 180- and 182-ranked teams.

In short, IU’s home games are against higherranked teams while the road games are every team below them.

“We need to really start building on what we want to continue into the rest of this season and hopefully into the postseason,” IU junior forward Amanda Cahill said. “We’re kind of in the middle of the pack in the Big Ten, and there are a lot of teams, so Coach says we need to start separating ourselves.”

IU freshman Mallory Mulzer didn’t start getting serious about track and field until she was almost finished with high school.

When she started experiencing success in her junior and senior years at Reitz Memorial High School in Newburgh, Indiana, her coach and former IU track and field athlete Dylan Barnes pointed her out to IU Coach Ron Helmer.

“She scored at the state meet in the 400-meter as a junior for the first time with a solid time,” Helmer said. “She’s expanded her range into the 800 and this year at the state meet had a nice carry on their 4x800 relay.”

Mulzer ran track for the majority of her life but when Barnes recommended her to Helmer, she began taking the sport more seriously and Helmer said he knew she would be an impressive athlete.

“Barnes has great respect for what we’re doing, and I know he would not recommend someone to us that didn’t have the ability to have success at this level,” Helmer said.

Now just three weeks into her freshman season as a walk-on, Mulzer has contributed to the IU team. In early January, Mulzer won her first collegiate race, the 800-meter run, against in-state rival Purdue and has only been improving since.

Mulzer said she fell in love with track through the rewarding moments the sport has to offer.

“There’s always moments after a really good workout or after doing really well in a meet that makes me feel so happy,” Mulzer said. “No moment or emotion beats that, and I didn’t want to stop that.”

Mulzer said the team aspect was one of the reasons she wanted to continue her track career at the

ARNETT’S ANGLE

FOOTBALL

COLUMN: IU Baseball is finally back and could improve There’s not much to look forward to in the month of February.

The days are full of dark skies and frostbite.

The cold takes over and turns four long, dreary weeks into what seems like a couple of months put together.

And somehow it’s only 28 days.

I guess there’s Valentine’s Day, but a day full of couples on social media is not what anyone’s trying to see.

However, there is one day that comes to mind when I think about the shortest month of the year.

Feb. 17 — when college baseball season begins.

For those of you that are infatuated with the sport like I am, it technically never goes away.

The beautiful figure of a baseball diamond is always wedged somewhere in the back of your head. You catch yourself going through stats, lineups and schedules as if it’s your courses’ syllabi.

That’s OK, because in 17 days baseball is back and slowly seeping into everyone’s mind once again.

On that day in Surprise, Arizona, IU will be back on the diamond taking on the Gonzaga Bulldogs for its first game of the season.

Most Hoosier baseball followers know that Bart Kaufman Field will host the Big Ten tournament this year for the first time, and there’s no better scenario than the Hoosiers celebrating a conference title on their own field.

Last season the Hoosiers finished 32-24 overall and 15-9 in the Big Ten, ending their season prematurely against Maryland in the Big

Ten Tournament.

With the conference tournament in Bloomington this season, the Hoosiers should have a distinct advantage in the postseason.

The Hoosiers went 19-6 at home while going 10-13 on the road.

Taking care of business at home is expected, but being able to win on the road distinguishes the tournament teams from those that get sent home early with their heads drooped.

Last season’s strong suit was pitching, as the team had a combined ERA of 3.09, which was second in the Big Ten, but hitting is where they lacked production.

The Hoosiers hit for a combined .257 batting average last season, which was only 10th in the conference.

This year the roles could be reversed.

Of the seven Hoosiers that hit above .250 last year, five are back in Cream and Crimson for another season — seniors Craig Dedelow and Alex Krupa, junior Logan Sowers and sophomores Ryan Fineman and Scotty Bradley. However, Kyle Bunn, the pitching coach, will be without his three top guys from a year ago.

The three starting pitchers for the Hoosiers last season, who all had 15 starts, are no longer on the roster. Instead, Lemonis and Bunn will look to sophomore Jonathan Stiever, junior Pauly Milto and senior Luke Stephenson to handle the reigns. They accounted for just 11 of 56 starts last

college level.

Helmer praised Mulzer’s willingness to be taught and self-motivation.

These traits, Helmer said, make her an easy athlete to have on his team.

“She is easy to coach, and she wants to please everyone,” Helmer said. “She wants to do everything she’s supposed to do and not just because I or anyone else wants her to do it but because she wants to be good.”

This past weekend at the IU Relays Mulzer competed in the 600 meter event.

She raced against teammates sophomore Taylor Williams, senior Mackenzie Bollinger and junior Kendell Wiles among opponents from other universities.

Wiles took first, Bollinger came in second, and right behind was Mulzer in third.

Mulzer said she very much looks up to these teammates and will be doing her best to keep up with them.

“My goal is to stay with them as long as I can and be as close to their times as I can,” Mulzer said. “They are both great runners, so if I’m anywhere close to them, I know I’m doing OK.” Through the rest of the season, Mulzer said she hopes to continue to develop as an athlete and improve as a runner. She said she wants to prove her value as a member of the team and ultimately earn a scholarship.

Helmer said he believes in her potential to develop into a top athlete and become a great asset for the team in the future.

“Her work ethic is great and her competitive spirit is great,” Helmer said.

“She’s plenty talented to develop to a place where she’ll be a large contributor on a Big Ten team at this level, and I couldn’t be happier with the progress she’s made.”

One thing they must do this year is get off to a better start. Last season they opened the year 2-7 with trips down south and out west. The start of a season never defines a team, but an auspicious beginning could engender confidence in this team with early trips to both Arizona and Florida.

this season. Some may worry about the lack of experience on the mound, but that shouldn’t be much of a problem. This year’s starters made less than 20 percent of the teams starts last season, but they won’t be afraid of the moment if and when called upon.

The key for this team will be getting wins on the road, especially within the conference when they travel to Northwestern, Purdue, Michigan and Ohio State.

After last season’s disappointment of missing the NCAA Tournament, expect IU to play a big role in the postseason this year. With the Big Ten tournament at Bart Kaufman and the Hoosiers having ranked among the top two in the Big Ten and the top 35 in the country in attendance since the stadium opened, exciting times loom in Bloomington. eliarnet@umail.iu.edu @arnett35

The Hoosiers earned their 22nd commitment of the class of 2017 Monday when Florida cornerback Raheem Layne chose to join IU after decommitting from Minnesota on Jan. 23.

“Blessed to say I have officially committed to Indiana University,” Layne said via Twitter after announcing his commitment on Facebook shortly beforehand.

The 6-foot, 183-pound defensive back is one of two IU cornerback commits for 2017 and also received interest from Iowa, Purdue, Wake Forest and Nebraska. Layne committed to Minnesota in November 2016 but got six offers in December and January.

In the tweet, the Sebastian River, Florida, native said he likes IU cornerbacks Coach Brandon Shelby, and secondary coach Noah Joseph was listed as his primary recruiter on 247sports.com.

Layne would have been the Hoosiers’ 23rd commitment of 2017, but Ohio defensive tackle and former IU commit Derrius Mullins announced early Monday morning that he is ending his recruiting process after his GPA did not qualify.

National Signing Day is Feb. 1.

persisted and her leg had started changing colors. By early afternoon Rob and Dianna decided she needed to go to the hospital.

An ultrasound revealed Dianna had a deep vein thrombosis blood clot that stretched from her knee to her hip. The doctor wouldn’t even let her get off the bed where the ultrasound was performed and brought an emergency room bed to Dianna instead of transferring her there in a wheelchair.

Rob didn’t sleep much the nights Dianna spent in the hospital. They were both nervous, but by Friday they were told Dianna could go home.

There was no operation, just orders to take medication and stay off her leg as much as possible.

Rob told the team what happened at practice the Monday after, and while Josh said they were concerned about their team mom’s health, they were glad at that point there was nothing further to worry about. Dianna didn’t talk to many of them about it but didn’t expect to. They’re young and not likely to initiate an emotional conversation.

It wasn’t until late January the swelling reduced to the point Dianna could wear her own tennis shoes and not an old pair of Rob’s. She could wear her normal jeans and not a pair of sweats or largersized jeans she bought from Wal-Mart.

As Dianna recovered, Josh said everyone around the house tried to pick up the slack with chores and cook a little more here and there. At

the gym, even though Josh and Rob were usually busy coaching and Dianna focused on the business side of the team, they tried to limit her movement. . . .

Boxing never crossed Josh’s mind before Rob and Dianna got married. They forced him to start training with Rob as punishment for fighting with one of his brothers, and soon Josh became the first to click with his house’s new father figure.

Josh’s first three years in the gym with his stepdad resembled private training, and Josh grew to love and respect Rob. The hard exterior of a man who looks like he’s ready to beat someone up peeled away to a genuine individual.

His jokes have an element of

Rob used to joke that Josh would take over running the gym, and in mid-November Josh officially became an assistant coach. His young boxing career isn’t over, but along with Rob and Dianna he agreed he wasn’t physically or mentally prepared to fight right now. Josh wants to mold champions.

Rob said he gives Josh four or five years before the 19-year-old is ready to take over completely.

Then Rob plans to duck away with Dianna to a small cabin in the woods, possibly in North Carolina. He envisions one bedroom, a fireplace and front porch fitted with two rocking chairs.

At a practice in late January Rob and Josh stood on the outside of the ropes and watched two IU students sparring in preparation for a bout later this spring.

They watched their hands, footwork and position relative to each other and above all ensured everyone stayed safe.

boxers needed to address because too much information can be detrimental. Then they’d watch and see if the fighter listened.

When boxers don’t train enough, it shows when they spar. Boxing isn’t a sport someone can take lightly and hope to be good at when the bell rings.

All Josh knows about boxing he’s learned from Rob, and while Josh is learning how to coach as he continues to box, Rob doesn’t see the two as all that different. There’s enough time for Josh to learn what he needs to.

Dianna gets nervous thinking about her son taking over the gym by himself, and Josh has his own apprehensions and fears, but Josh has shadowed his parents through the struggles. Rob has taught him how to read body language to judge levels of understanding, a droop of the head tends to describe frustration. He’s adapting lessons to the goals of his students and realizing while some may want to fight competitively others just want to stay in shape.

Rob and Dianna are pestering him to find a girl who’s interested in boxing to share it with.

At a show in Evansville, Indiana, only Marquese was scheduled to fight. Josh took up his spot ringside and was seated a few feet behind and to the right of Rob. A family-oriented crowd surrounded the ring, which was in the middle of a basketball court. Reserved tables surrounded it on the floor, while the majority of the crowd watched from the gallery.

said the people at the tables looked like they were there to be seen. They weren’t nearly as engaged as the true fans.

Marquese’s bout came sixth. As other fighters boxed, Rob, Dianna and Josh, all wearing black BTown Boxing club hoodies and jeans, cycled in and out of the locker room. Inside Rob wrapped Marquese’s hands while both Rob and Josh kept Marquese warmed up with mitts and a jump rope. They tried to keep Marquese calm by talking about a future fight and reminding him of his training.

During the fight both Josh and Rob’s eyes remained fixed on Marquese. He struggled to establish himself in the first two rounds and failed to use combinations to set up position.

“Calm down,” Rob would yell after blows from Marquese’s opponent forced retreats.

Josh sat silently and listened. Rob’s advice to Marquese, to make his man miss, stop waiting and come back with combinations, mirrors what Josh will need to give when he coaches the corner.

Marquese took the momentum back in the third round but lost.

Dianna came down from her place in the stands, where she videotaped the bout, and waited at the entrance to the locker room. Rob, Marquese and Josh walked toward her.

Marquese was in the middle with Rob on one side and Josh the other.

Rob knew Marquese was experienced enough not to dwell on the loss. He just kept telling him he was proud.

Marquese was ready to get back to training.
