No jail time in IPS sex scandal

IDS

By Taylor Telford ttelford@indiana.edu | @ttelford1883

A former Indianapolis Public Schools counselor accused of having sex with two underage students accepted a plea deal Tuesday, allowing her to serve no jail time. Instead, she will have six years of home detention.

Shana Taylor, 38, pleaded guilty to three felony counts of dissemination of materials harmful to minors. She is requesting to serve her home detention in Ellettsville, Indiana. The plea agreement did not specify whether she will have to register as a sex offender, a spokeswoman from the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office said.

All three counts pertained to photos Taylor sent to a student that showed her bare genitals.

Previously, Taylor was facing nine counts of child seduction, one count of dissemination of materials harmful to minors and one count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Between October 2015 and February 2016, Taylor allegedly had sex with two underage students and had an extended sexual relationship with one of them, according to court documents. The student said he met with Taylor for sex on more than 20 different occasions, some of which were during school hours.

During these encounters, Taylor would cover the window of her office door and give the student oral sex in the corner, out of sight, according to court documents. Authorities found traces of bodily fluids in the corner of her office during the course of their investigation.

The relationship between Taylor and the student began when he was 16 and continued after he turned 17. The two met for sex at various locations, including the boy’s home, Taylor’s home, her blue Hyundai Elantra and a Bloomington hotel.

On one occasion the boy invited another student over while he was with Taylor, who performed oral sex on one boy while the other penetrated her from behind, according to court documents.

Taylor and the student exchanged numerous explicit texts, in which she often referred to the student as being “young” and herself as being “grown,” according to court documents.

One boy’s mother found text and Facebook messages between him and Taylor and brought them to the school district Feb. 17, 2016. Although school employees in Indiana are required to report abuse or neglect to the Department of Child Services immediately, no report was made about Taylor until Feb. 23 after a media outlet had been tipped off about Indianapolis Public Schools’ investigation

After 44 years, women’s tennis Coach Lin Loring announced his retirement Wednesday. He was named coach of the year for the Big Ten, the Midwest and nationally numerous times.

Loring retires After 44 years of coaching women’s tennis, Lin Loring steps down

By Dylan Wallace dswallac@iu.edu | @Dwall_1

IU women’s tennis coach Lin Loring was 23 during what he called the “Golden Age” of tennis.

It was a time when great tennis players such Jimmy Connors, Chris Evert, Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs were center stage. The 1973 “Battle of the Sexes” match between King and Riggs was a defining moment for Loring’s interest in tennis.

While attending the University of California-Santa Barbara, Loring was a tournament golfer, and his roommate was the No. 1 tennis player at their school.

Loring taught his roommate golf, and his roommate taught him tennis. As time went on, Loring transitioned from the golf course to the courts.

Shortly after graduating, Loring took a head coaching job at UC-Santa Barbara and led the women’s tennis team to a 42-17 record in four years.

In 1977 Loring made the move to Bloomington, where he found his home for the next 40 years. Loring announced his retirement from coaching Thursday.

During his time at IU he became the winningest Big Ten coach in history with 804 wins. With his career total at 846 he became the all-time wins leader in women’s Division I collegiate tennis history.

Along with these wins came 16 Big Ten Championships, an overall winning percentage of 71.6 percent and an Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women SEE LORING, PAGE 8

New Phi Gamma Delta house divides student opinion

By Larmie Sanyon lsanyon@indiana.edu | @DaGreatestSanyn

A 52,000-square-foot residence cannot be constructed without turning some heads.

Phi Gamma Delta has done exactly that through a partnership with IU. The project will see the fraternity move from its current residence on East Third Street to its new location on Woodlawn Avenue.

The relocation allows IU to expand some of its infrastructure along Third Street. Fiji is currently located adjacent to the Maurer School of Law and Swain Hall.

Part of the reason that the house turns heads is because it’s located on one of the busiest streets on campus and its grand aesthetic makes it hard to ignore.

“It was pretty incredible seeing the construction of the building over the past year or so,” Justice Eiden, a junior, said.

Eiden used to live at Collins Living Learning Center and spends a lot of his time at the WIUX station just behind the new Fiji house. As a result he said he has had many opportunities to see the house grow from rubble to a home.

“I’m honestly glad that its construction is finally over so Woodlawn finally goes back to normal,” Eiden said. “There was a lot of noise, and the construction affected traffic heavily.”

Fiji’s proximity to Woodlawn and the Union will grant them greater attention, but not all of the attention will prove to be beneficial. Justin English, a junior and member of the Delta Chi fraternity, said his friends are not excited

about the new house.

“My friend who lives behind the new house says that he won’t hesitate to call for a noise complaint if necessary,” English said.

English said he thinks it is a solid location for the fraternity but he worries if the members will tire of being at the center of everyone’s attention.

“I bet a lot of their members will get sick of living there and having everyone’s eyes and ears on them,” English said.

Fiji will be exposed to some eyes and ears that simply do not care for greek life.

“I’m offended every time I walk past the new Fiji house because it stands for something really ugly,” said Ethan Brown, a junior at IU. Brown said that he feels offended by the home because of the hyper-exclusive and elitist nature of fraternities. For Brown, that’s not what college is about.

“There are students at IU who struggle to pay their rent, but now the outstanding young men of FIJI, thanks to IU’s generous funding, live in a house right in the center of campus but with walls high enough that their outdoor parties can still be invite only,” Brown said.

Brown represents a portion of the student body that believes that IU should strive toward dismantling greek life because he said it reflects and perpetuates an unjust culture.

However, not everyone is dismayed by Fiji’s expansion.

“Overall I think it will shed a positive light on IU’s greek life that it has been lacking in the media lately,” said Cora Butrum, a sopho-

more and member of IU’s greek community.

Butrum said she believes greek life adds value to the community and to all who have the fortune of joining or participating.

“It will boost the brotherhood’s reputation in the public eye and

grant them extremely positive rushes in the next several years to come,” Butrum said.

Fraternity members said they could not comment since their Alumni Board and Housing Corps told them to abstain from talking to the press after the board re-

ceived what it called “unwanted attention.”

English, however, said that he thinks that the chapter and Greek community will benefit from the new home in the long term.

“I think the house itself is going to be a rush magnet,” English said.

Crime reports drop over break Students prepare for upcoming spring semester

By Kelly Evans evanskn@indiana.edu

As students start returning to campus, the IU Police Department said it will resume its normal level of surveillance after a generally routine winter break.

“During breaks, we normally see a decline in all types of offenses, and this break has been no different,” IUPD Capt. Andy Stephenson said in email.

Because students and staff leave Bloomington for the winter hiatus, the police department can expect less activity and fewer calls for assistance. However, breaks can be a particularly common time for increased burglaries.

Areas that have the most potential for these incidents are typically off-campus residences that are still within a close proximity to campus.

“The vacant housing during breaks is an attractive target for thieves,” Stephenson said. “We work in partnership with the Bloomington Police Department to give the off-campus housing areas extra attention during breaks.”

The Office of International Services and IUPD were hosts of the event.

of all vehicle thefts happened to unlocked vehicles and 29.2 percent of burglaries happened to unlocked residences.

From Dec. 16 to Jan. 3, the maximum number of incidents IUPD reported for a single day was 13. Theft and driving under the influence were both just a few of those charges.

“Overall, the most prevalent crime on campus is usually theft,” Stephenson said.

On Dec. 20, an IU-Notify Alert was sent out to students. The alert indicated a suspect with a gun had been sighted near Union Street Apartments. However, after further investigation, no weapon was ever located, and IUPD determined there was no longer a threat, according to a press release from the day of the incident.

Dec. 23, 24 and 25 had no criminal activity in the IUPD crime logs. These days

included Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and the start of Hanukkah.

Regardless of the time of year, IUPD can be contacted in emergent and non-emergent situations. Feel free to contact them with any concerns or indications of danger.

“We remind everyone that all of us share the responsibility of keeping our campus community safe,” Stephenson said.

Students weighed options for break

By Hannah Boufford hbouffor@indiana.edu | @hannahbouf

As finals came to an end and most students packed their bags to return home for the holidays, international students decided where to stay over winter break.

Often as a result of the distance from home and the cost to get there, some decide to remain in Bloomington or travel around the country.

Xiang “Sylvia” Lian is a freshman from Guangxi, an autonomous region in southern China. Because of the expensive plane tickets and a flight longer than 15 hours, Lian and some of her IU friends from Guangxi decided to spend winter break traveling to Chicago, New York City and Yale University.

According to Lian, most of her international friends at IU stayed in the United States for similar reasons.

Though she has not seen her family since she left for Indiana this summer, Lian said she talks to them often.

“They talk to me everyday. They call me, and it’s not so hard,” Lian said.

However, for other international students, such as Michaela Dumesny, reconnecting with family and friends was a significant factor in deciding to make the trip all the way home.

Dumesny is from

Nelson, Australia, and has an interest in motorsports.

Given the summer weather in Australia this time of year, she was excited to get home to join her family in all the fun.

“Going from snow during our finals to come over here, and it was about — the hottest was probably 110° — so going from snow to that I was just... It’s very different,” Dumesny said.

Dumesny arrived home from Indiana on Dec. 17 and spent her time this break catching up with family through motorsports in Warrnambool, Australia; Sydney; and Tasmania, Australia.

“I suppose I did think about staying over, but I missed my family a bit, and I have a dog over here that I really missed,” Dumesny said. “Being that it was the beginning of racing season, it was easy to catch up with a lot of people in one place.

It just worked out better for me.”

The Office of International Services at IU does not keep track of where international students decide to spend their winter breaks, said Rendy Schrader, the director of Student and Scholar Advising at OIS. Schrader said she believes most international students typically travel during break. They either go back home or somewhere in the U.S. A few did stay in

Bloomington.

For those who did chose to stay in town, Residential Programs and Services offered students the opportunity to sign up for winter break housing for a charge of $200 billed to the student’s bursar account.

Troy Wood, the assistant director for Outreach and Logistics at RPS, said there were about 40 to 50 students that signed up for winter break housing. Other students in Union Street, Willkie Quad and the Hillcrest Apartments had extended contracts, which allowed them to stay during break without having to sign up for break housing.

Students that did sign up stayed in lounges in Eigen-

mann Hall and Forest Quad.

The students were provided beds and typically shared a lounge with two or three other people. No dining facilities were open, but RPS did have limited staff on call to handle rounds and incidents like lock-outs.

Dumesny said although she received information for break housing, she did not pay close attention to the emails because she knew the option was not for her.

“I did receive an email about it, but if I was to stay, I probably would want to be traveling over that time,” she said. “I loved the idea of a white Christmas, but I missed my family, so I decided to come back.”

IPFW revises budget cuts, pushes forward with realignment process

By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@umail.iu.edu | @jesselnaranjo

After facing backlash from students and faculty, IU-Purdue University Fort Wayne backtracked on plans to slash the women’s studies program while still seeking to make budget cuts in the coming years.

The majority of the program, chaired by Professor Janet Badia, will be absorbed by the Department of Political Science but will keep autonomy on matters of curriculum. In a radio interview with 89.1 WBOIFM Badia said she thought about leaving the school but plans to remain for the students.

“I am so inspired by our students,” Badia said in the interview. “Their outreach, their advocacy, their activism — it motivates me to want to stay at IPFW.” The backtrack comes after weeks of discourse both in person and across media platforms. A protest on the Bloomington campus in

October was organized by members of the IU Department of Gender Studies to show solidarity with the then-threatened department in Fort Wayne.

Since Purdue announced the department’s reinstatement under the political science’s home department, the academic offerings have changed.

Effective Jan. 1, a women’s studies degree is still offered to current and future undergraduates, but many of the responsibilities of the original department are now being taken on by faculty in the political science department.

A press release from the IPFW dean’s office Dec. 12 included a message from Badia, who said, “The preservation of the Women’s Studies major at IPFW is a victory for the entire region.”

According to the release, Badia has seen students from the program go on to work in fields such as violence prevention and victim

Though many students are still clinging to the last few minutes of break and relaxing and unwinding, some, like Anna Schilling, an IU senior, are already making preparations for the new semester.

Sarah Henderson, an IU freshman, has already planned her return to Bloomington, “I think I will go back early,” Henderson said. That way she can get her books.

Schilling already has many of her books, though she said she prefers to wait and see if she really needs them.

“I am sort of a pre-planner,” Schilling said. “I already got some of my books.

I usually wait to talk to the professor to see if I really need the book.”

Junior Thomas Stewart, on the other hand, is watching videos and doing research for one of his classes.

“I watch the videos anyway, but now I am taking notes,” Stewart said.

This is a different start to the semester for him, he said. Stewart said he usually stumbles haplessly into the semester and is completely unprepared.

However, this time he said he is going to stop dividing his attention among all of his classes and he is going to focus his attention on his game design. One of the projects for the class is to create a board game, and he

intends to put all his efforts into creating a complex and detailed game.

Stewart is hoping his project will be a centerpiece, like a portfolio to show his talents.

Henderson, though worried about her classes, said she is looking ahead to the summer. Henderson is working in a research lab and hopes to stay on when the semester is over.

If she can set up a position at the lab, Henderson said she might even take a summer class. During the semester she has very simple goals — focus more on her studies, hang out with friends a little less, and get more REM sleep.

Schilling has opposing goals. Though she is still going to work hard in her classes, she intends to spend more time with friends and get out and do things. However, she said she still is looking to apply for the Kelley School of Business and has a job set up for the summer.

“I have been such a nerd,” Schilling said. “I want to get out and go explore.”

For some, like Schilling, plans for the summer are already in motion; however, for others like Henderson and Stewart, what happens during the summer is entirely dependent on what they can accomplish during the semester.

Stewart said he hopes to be noticed at game design competitions, and Henderson’s plans are dependent on getting a position at her lab.

advocacy and have great influence on social justice in their communities.

WBOI reported a salary cut for the director, along with one faculty member being let go as part of the revised proposal.

The program cuts are part of a slew of other costsaving measures proposed as IU and Purdue move to split administrative control of the school.

According to the school realignment proposal from December, plans to split the schools were set in motion Jan. 15, when the state’s Legislative Services Agency, with the help of representatives from both schools, published a report recommending that Purdue take over administrative duties from IU. The two schools have history of collaborating on curriculum and dividing programs up between the two when deemed necessary. IU-Purdue University Fort Wayne is one of three schools, the others being

IU-Purdue University Indianapolis and IU-Purdue University Columbus, shared.

Exceptions to the proposed realignment were nursing, dental education, radiography, and other future health programs, which were deemed beneficial to IU’s focus on maintaining its health science major offerings.

The collaboration between the two schools and the realignment plan are guided by IU’s and Purdue’s Academic Mission standards, which dictate strengths and goals of each school and how the two can work around each other.

The proposal said the realignment will take place once the board of trustees from each school votes on the measure.

The IU Board of Trustees opted to vote on the realignment proposal at the next meeting Feb. 2, and the Board of Trustees at Purdue approved the measure Dec. 16 in the last meeting of 2016.

From IDS reports

IU campuses will be celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Jan. 16 with activities ranging from discussions to film showings.

The activities will include IU-Purdue University Indianapolis’ MLK Day of Service, where students will work to give back to their community.

James Wimbush, vice president of diversity, equity and multicultural affairs and dean of the University Graduate School, said many of IU’s students and faculty are leaders of positive change.

“The breadth of activities taking place illustrates not only how the Indiana University community can come together in goodwill but also how individuals can make a difference through Dr. King’s values of courage and compassion,” Wimbush said in a press release.

IU-Bloomington’s celebration is centered on the theme of “The Power Of One.” The celebration will feature keynote speaker John Quiñones, who is the host of the ABC television show “What would you do?”

There will be a leadership breakfast where Building Bridges Awards will be given to students, staff and community members whose contributions have honored King’s ideas.

Registration for the breakfast must be completed by Jan. 10, and

there is limited seating. In the event that seating is full, the breakfast will be streamed on broadcast. iu.edu starting at 8:30 a.m.

The events in Bloomington do not conclude with the breakfast, however. At 6 p.m., the Buskirk-Chumley Theater will be the location of a birthday celebration for King.

The celebration will have music and guest speaker Adam Foss, who is an advocate for criminal justice reform.

The event is free to the public.

Other events include “The Power of Protest,” which is organized by the School of Public and Environmental Affairs and takes place at 12:30 p.m. in the O’Neill Graduate Center; the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center’s “Unity Summit: From Words to Actions” event from noon to 1 p.m.; and Black Lives Matter with David Banner, which is organized by Kappa Alpha Psi’s Alpha Chapter in Ballantine Hall from 6 to 8 p.m.

At IU-Kokomo, Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority is organizing a screening of the documentary “13th.”

IU-Purdue University Columbus is organizing a discussion about building alliances for justice.

IU-Northwest Gary will feature author Joy DeGruy as a speaker for the celebration.

IUSA plans spring semester

By Joy Burton joyburt@umail.iu.edu | @joybur10

A glimpse at IUSA’s spring to-do list

By Rachel Leffers rleffers@umail.iu.edu | @rachelleffers

After a fall filled with lobbying efforts, initiatives, hearings and two bills from Congress, IU Student Association is preparing for a strong spring from all six divisions including the executive branch, Congress and the Supreme Court.

The executive branch The IUSA executive branch had a busy fall semester, which included speaking with the mayor of Bloomington about citystudent concerns, working with College Mentors for Kids to inform elementary students about civic engagement, and meeting with United States congressional representatives to discuss the possibility of improving mental health options for students before the passing of legislation in favor of such reform.

The branch accomplished a notably high amount of other tasks last fall in addition to these things. The group’s productivity was acknowledged by President Sara Zaheer in a Facebook post recapping the executive branch’s fall season.

“You elected our Exec slate to work, so we did,” Zaheer said.

The executive branch’s work will continue this semester.

Provost Lauren Robel’s Inclusion Excellence Task Force will be aided by IUSA as the force creates a concrete plan to encourage inclusion and diversity at the University. Inclusion is a high priority for the executive officers and the Department of Diversity and Inclusion in 2017.

According to an email from Zaheer, IUSA is thrilled the Dean of Students has assigned a task force to reassess the University’s current strategies for accommodating the mental health needs of students. The executive branch will continue listening to student input on the

matter and conveying it to the task force this semester.

As far as long-term projects are concerned, the executive branch’s Department of Sustainability is working to establish a bike share program that is moving along particularly well.

Zaheer said in the email students should keep an eye on this project during the spring semester.

The branch will continue to find ways to keep the student body better informed about the student government’s latest actions this spring, Zaheer said in the email. The branch will be engaging University attendees in the political process by asking for feedback about specific policy interests in order to better meet student needs, she said.

Congress When adviser to the vice president of Congress Brandon Sakbun spoke with the IDS in December, he conveyed a sense of hope.

Last semester, Congress passed two bills. One proposes to improve resources for international students facing setbacks due to the language barrier, and the other would let students bring pepper spray to

Assembly Hall.

Many other proposals were delayed in the interest of creating a better strategy for the bills’ implementation. The process is called tabling. Congress tabled bills frequently last semester.

Multiple students elected to Congress were dismissed for inactivity or chose to resign last semester, and the shortage of members was a notable factor contributing to the low number of bills passed.

However, the slow pace may be by design. Sakbun said in December, Congress is trying only to pass bills that are ready to succeed.

Such a goal demands much more time and preparation from Congress members as the bill is developed, but the outcome is a proposal better suited for implementation.

The Supreme Court Though there weren’t any full court decisions to be reached last semester, Supreme Court justices were still busy serving on panels for academic and personal misconduct hearings.

The justices will do the same this semester in addition to fulfilling their duty to ensure fairness in the IUSA election.

“The past few spring semesters have led to very interesting IUSA election outcomes that the Court has reviewed,” Justice Andrea Testin said in an email. Testin said some elections do not call for justices to review disputes.

Like last semester, academic and personal misconduct hearings will continue to be a large part of the Supreme Court members’ job descriptions.

“Each justice on the court strives to ensure the decisions made in student code of conduct and academic misconduct hearing commissions are fair, understanding, and in the spirit of correction, not punishment,” Dark said in an email.

Testin discussed the positive personal effect of serving on a panel.

“Some of the decisions have been difficult, especially when a student’s ability to graduate, stay at IU, study abroad, etc. is on the line, but I truly enjoy trying to help other students walk through the process of taking ownership and changing for the better because, in reality, we all make mistakes and have to learn from them — it’s part of life,” Testin said in an email.

“Terminal Regression,” a novel written by IU junior Mallory Hill, will be released Jan. 17. After winning the second annual Authors First Novel Competition, Hill’s novel will be published by the Story Plant, a publishing company dedicated to developing authors.

Lou Aronica, president of the Story Plant, said on the Authors First website “Mallory Hill is a tremendously gifted writer. ‘Terminal Regression’ took our imaginations for a ride.”

The novel, according to Hill, is about protagonist Laura Baily, who discovers a secret, socially-rejected community as a result of her suicide attempt. Although she is a self-proclaimed failure and feels her life lacks meaning, she becomes preoccupied with the trials and sufferings of others. Baily embarks on a quest for justice, searches for a reason to live, and questions the roles of purpose and passion in her life.

Hill began writing “Terminal Regression” her freshman year of college when she wanted to change her major, but was unsure what to change it to. Before settling on anthropology due to her interest in the legends and artifacts of past civilizations, she felt lost. Hill said in an email she felt like her entire world was falling apart; however, unlike most college students, she channeled her negative feelings into writing a novel.

After entering the Authors First Novel Competition to gauge her quality of writing and receiving runner-up honors with her novel “One Wish,” Hill was hesitant to enter “Terminal Regression” into the following year’s competition. Her hesitation stemmed from how closely Hill related – and at times still does relate – to the novel’s protagonist, she said in the email.

Hill has always been a shy individual who does not like to share her negative

feelings with others. All of Hill’s doubts and fears of failure manifest in Baily, she said in the email, who is a magnified reflection of Hill’s emotional state while writing the novel.

“It’s about someone who is suicidal, and while I don’t think I’ve ever been so extremely desperate, I’ve been pretty down,” Hill said in the email about her book.

The novel centers closely on Baily’s search for both purpose and passion in her life — two things Hill said in the email she believes people prioritize in their lives.

“There’s an unspoken rule that you’re supposed to do something with your life that contributes to society, but we also want to do what makes us happy,” Hill said in the email. “I think it’s rare that the two should coincide, but I also think that’s what a lot of people strive for.”

Although Hill has said in the email she found her passion in creating new worlds and people, she is still unsure of her purpose in life. Like many students, Hill claims to have no idea what she’s doing.

Hill began writing when she was 14 because of her love for reading and her desire to read stories that did not yet exist. She now incorporates writing into her nightly routine by keeping multiple notebooks at the end of her bed. She said in the email that she is currently working on her 43rd unpublished manuscript, which may or may not stay unpublished.

Hill is not concerned with having her stories published because she writes for her own enjoyment; however, she said in the email she is thrilled to have “Terminal Regression” published even if her excitement is accompanied with nervousness.

The release of her novel is helping Hill trust people will receive and relate to her work in a way that will establish a genuine connection between her and her readers.

Whether it’s something odd or something ordinary,

go after it.

BPD reports murder, battery during break

By Jack Evans jackevan@indiana.edu | @JackHEvans

While most students were away for winter break, life, including crime, continued in Bloomington. That included a an arrest for murder and a possible pipe bomb, which did not contain propellant and thus did not pose a threat, in Bryan Park.

“That couple of days was really busy for us,” Bloomington Police Department Capt.

Steve Kellams said. He said the incidents were “obviously non-student-related.”

Kellams said break-ins and burglaries normally increase when students go on break.

In recent years, however, BPD has increased patrols in student-populated areas during those times, and some apartment complexes increase their own security as well. This year he said BPD didn’t see much of an increase.

Murder A Bloomington man arrested Dec. 20 on murder and other charges allegedly told witnesses to “let the motherfucker die,” according to a probable cause affidavit.

Kenneth Duwayne Hawkins, 48, allegedly stabbed Michael Rainey with a butcher knife during a domestic dispute.

Rainey, 46, suffered one Kenneth stab wound on Hawkins the left side of his chest and was pronounced dead at IU Health Bloomington Hospital.

Police received a call about the stabbing, which occurred in Hawkins’s apartment on South Odell Drive , at 1:47 p.m.

They arrested Hawkins on the scene without incident, took him to BPD for an interview and took him to the Monroe County Correctional Center thereafter.

Witnesses told police Hawkins had been arguing at the apartment with his girlfriend, Brenda Rainey, who is married to Michael Rainey.

Michael Rainey was at an auto parts store with another witness, who got a phone call about the argument from a third witness. Michael Rainey said he’d go to the apartment to remove Hawkins.

Brenda Rainey told police Hawkins grabbed a butcher knife, locked himself and her in an upstairs bedroom and told her he’d stab her if she tried to leave during the argument. He allegedly punched her upper body and grabbed her arms to prevent her from leaving.

When Michael Rainey arrived, he confronted Hawkins in the bedroom. Hawkins told police Rainey attempted to strangle him on the bed.

He blacked out, and when he came to, he found himself holding the knife and saw blood on the knife, walls and Rainey. He told police he thinks he stabbed Rainey to stop the choking.

Brenda Rainey, however, told police Michael Rainey had tried to pull Hawkins from the room. Hawkins picked up the knife from the bed and stabbed him. Michael Rainey walked down the stairs before collapsing on the floor, where other witnesses tried to administer CPR. Brenda Rainey said Hawkins kicked Michael Rainey four times and said, “Hope he dies.”

In addition to murder, Hawkins is charged with domestic battery, intimidation with a deadly weapon and criminal confinement.

Aggravated battery A Bloomington man was arrested Dec. 27 after he allegedly stabbed his father’s significant other multiple times.

Buddy P. Smith, 26, is charged with aggravated battery. According to a probable cause affidavit, Smith stabbed the woman, Heather Mullis, during an argument with her and his father, Buddy Panciera. Smith was arrested shortly thereafter and taken to the MCCC. The Monroe County

Sheriff ’s Office responded to a 10:42 p.m. call about the stabbing. Panciera told detectives Smith had shown up at the house where he and Mullis live and asked to come in. Panciera declined. Smith moved around Panciera and forced his way through the door.

Smith and Mullis began fighting, and Buddy Paul Panciera inter- Smith vened. Mullis’s daughter, who was also in the house, said she saw Smith holding a folding knife with a black blade and tried to warn her mother and Panciera; however, at the same time, Mullis yelled, “He stabbed me.”

Panciera pushed Smith out of the house. Mullis had been stabbed in the chest, and her hand had been badly cut.

Smith was arrested less than an hour after the call. According to the affidavit, Smith told an IU Police Department officer who assisted with the arrest that he didn’t mean to hurt anyone.

Intimidation A woman was arrested Dec. 16 at Campus Corner apartments after she allegedly threatened her roommate in an argument about singing.

Aryanna B. Averhart, 19, of Nobelsville, Indiana, allegedly grabbed a knife during the argument, which resulted in a charge of intimidation with a deadly weapon. BPD officers arrested Averhart at 2:45 p.m. and took her to the MCCC. The police report did not contain any additional details about the singing that sparked the argument, Kellams said.

Though the arrest occurred at Campus Corner, no student with Averhart’s name appears in IU’s online directory.

Robbery A transient man was arrested Dec. 13 on robbery charges after allegedly punching a clerk during a convenience store robbery.

Bennie W. Ferguson, 42, is charged with two acts of robbery and theft. Kellams said Ferguson spent much of the day in the convenience store on the day before his arrest.

He charged his phone there and spoke with a clerk, who bought him a soda.

Ferguson asked the clerk if he would look away and let him take money from the register. The clerk declined.

Ferguson then punched the clerk and took money from the register.

Suspected pipe bomb A possible pipe bomb found Dec. 20 at Bryan Park never posed a public danger, police said.

Officers responded at about 11 p.m. to a report of a suspicious item in the park’s parking lot on South Henderson Street, according to a press release from the Bloomington Police Department. They found a PVC pipe that appeared to have been fashioned into a pipe bomb.

Police called in the Indiana State Police Explosive Ordinance Disposal Team, which found the device did not contain any propellant and would have never been dangerous.

Strangulation A Bloomington man was arrested Wednesday on strangulation and battery charges after he allegedly choked his roommate because he believed the man doesn’t do enough household chores.

Maxwell B. Foreman, 24, was arrested at his East Dixie St. home after BPD responded to a call. Kellams said the roommate told police Foreman had come downstairs and begun arguing with him and yelling and throwing cups at him. When the roommate began yelling back, Foreman put his hands around the roommate’s throat.

Foreman told police the fight began when he confronted his roommate about not doing chores.

Foreman was arrested at 7:20 p.m. and taken to the MCCC.

"Life Behind the Wheel" is a new exhibit at the Monroe County History Center. It features a soapbox car and a license plate collection.

Museum explores car culture

By Christine Fernando ctfernan@indiana.edu @christinetfern

On the wall is a movie screen with trailers and concessions stand ads running on a loop. Beside the screen a child turns the steering wheel of a makeshift car flanked by retro candy boxes and advertisements.

KayLee Witt said the scene seems to be plucked out of 1950s drive-in theater, yet it sits within the walls of the Monroe County History Museum.

The drive-in theater is a part of the center’s “Life Behind the Wheel” exhibit, which showcases the effect of the car on American culture. The exhibit is open through Jan. 21.

Witt, exhibits manager of the Monroe County History Museum, said the drive-in theater’s representation of the car’s effect is why it is her favorite part of

the exhibit.

“The whole drive-in idea has shown how movies and entertainment and recreation have been influenced by the car,” she said.

History museum intern Emily Brown said the drivein theater was also her favorite part because of its interactive elements.

“The artifacts used are interesting, and the sitdown interactive portion is amazing,” Brown said. “The exhibits department actually built a car in the gallery. It’s so fun and has so many different parts that are attention-grabbing and informative.”

As attendees enter the exhibit, they are greeted by a row of cases. In the tallest case, a mannequin sports a duster coat and riding gloves to demonstrate how cars have affected fashion.

The toy cars and toy gas station in the next case display the effect of cars on toys and recreation.

Passing by old driver’s licenses, driving manuals, Indy 500 scarves and a rack of postcards, attendees arrive at posters advertising movies and TV shows wedged in the corner. These posters, Witt said, have their own message.

“Cars influence television and movies as well,” Witt said. “In some shows and movies, the cars were even characters of their own. The car they drove also said a lot about the character, so it became a tool for people to show what a character was like.”

Across the top of the walls, a collection of cutout phrases float above the throng of automobile artifacts. The phrases include “In the fast lane,” “Running on fumes,” “My way or the highway” and “Shift into high gear” and are examples of car-related idioms now common in the English language.

“They show how cars

have transformed our language, which is just the core of how we communicate and our culture,” Witt said.

By showcasing each of these artifacts and visuals, Witt said she hopes to show attendees the reach of the car in everyday life.

“The car isn’t just its own thing,” Witt said. “It’s interwoven into everything else in culture and society, and even politics even though we may not think about it.”

Brown said she too hopes this exhibit will help people realize the effect of the car in every aspect, whether that be sports like NASCAR or experiences like road trips and drive-in movies, of life.

“Car culture is so ingrained in how we live our lives,” Brown said. “This exhibit does a really good job of pointing out how cars changed the world and how they have become so important to all of us.”

‘Protection at Conception’ bill filed

By Alexa Chryssovergis aachryss@indiana.edu @achryssovergis

Despite warnings from legislators that other issues would be the focus of the 2017 session, a state representative filed a new bill Wednesday morning that would make abortions completely illegal in Indiana if passed.

Rep. Curt Nisly, R-Goshen, filed Senate Bill 1134 with the stated goal being “to preserve the lives of 8,000 Hoosiers every year.”

The bill, dubbed the “Protection at Conception” bill, would leave discretion of how to criminally charge someone who performs an illegal abortion up to a county prosecutor, Nisly said.

The bill would likely be ruled unconstitutional because it contradicts Roe v.

Wade, the landmark Supreme Court case that established a woman’s right to an abortion.

The issue of outlawing abortion is more pertinent now than ever because some Republicans hope Roe v.

Wade will be overturned with Donald Trump as president.

Periods for Politicians/ Periods for Pence, a popular Facebook group that launched last year after Vice President-elect Mike Pence signed a controversial abortion bill later blocked by a federal judge, has already begun garnering opposition for Nisly’s bill on its page.

The page urges people to sign a petition — with 1,241 signatures as of 2 p.m.

Thursday — that asks House Speaker Brian Bosma, RIndianapolis, to stop the bill.

It also asks opponents to call Nisly and let him know the bill is unacceptable.

“I’m usually more upbeat with my morning greetings, but CRIKEY!” a post on the page read. “They’ve been in session for TWO DAYS and already obsessing over our hoo-has.”

Ali Slocum, communications director for Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, said the idea of the

bill is certainly problematic.

The organization declined to comment further, however, until the bill moves past its draft form and is made public on the Indiana General Assembly’s website.

In November, after Nisly originally mentioned he was planning on filing the legislation, Planned Parenthood released a statement in response.

“Lawmakers who continue to bury their heads in the sand on these reproductive issues are hurting those that they pledged to serve,” said Betty Cockrum, PPINK president and CEO, in the Nov. 17 release.

The draft version of SB 1134 can be found on Nisly’s Twitter, where he’s posted a link to it.

Nisly’s press contact, Zach Weismiller, said the bill will be made public on the IGA website if Bosma assigns it to a committee, but there’s no guarantee yet that a committee will hear the bill.

Amy Schlichter, founder of Hoosiers for Life, the organization that brought the bill idea to Nisly and helped write it, said she’s concerned legislators won’t give the bill the time of day.

Bosma and Senate President Pro Tempore David Long, R-Fort Wayne, have

repeatedly emphasized infrastructure and education improvements as main focuses of the 2017 session and have shied away from promoting Nisly’s bill.

To Schlichter, after the intense anti-abortion rhetoric of the election both at the state and national level, this feels like a slap in the face.

Her email has been flooded with support, so much so that she’s had to bring in extra help to sift through the comments, for the new legislation.

Schlichter said many are “screaming that they have to stop abortion,” and she hopes legislators won’t ignore their will.

“We tend to look at these people like they’re something extra special,” Schlichter said.

“But they’re just men and women like you and I, and they’ve got to represent their district.”

Dawn Johnsen, an IU law professor, said the bill is unconstitutional, irresponsible, un-American and a waste of money and time.

If passed, the bill would undoubtedly be blocked just like last year’s HEA 1337, said Johnsen, who also served as the head of Office of Legal Counsel during the Clinton administration. Regardless

of the legislature’s views on abortion, this bill is not the right way to go about addressing the issue, she said.

“The one that the court blocked from last legislative session also was clearly unconstitutional, but in a way that tried to be at least clever and creative,” Johnsen said.

In response to the unconstitutionailty argument, Nisly said, “Roe v. Wade was wrong.”

“The Supreme Court has been wrong many times in the past,” said Nisly, citing slavery and segregation as examples.

Schlichter said she isn’t fazed by those who say the bill is unconstitutional either.

“Why not fight with everything you have?” Schlichter said. “That argument doesn’t necessarily scare us.

It doesn’t concern me at all.”

Johnsen said she sees this bill as a consequence of Trump winning the presidential election.

She fears the new administration and atmosphere in the United States will inspire more extreme bills such as this one.

“I’m just really saddened by what I think is the effect of Donald Trump’s election — emboldening people who are seeking to take away constitutional rights,” Johnsen said.

White House calls on former senator From IDS reports

Former United States senator Dan Coats, R-Indiana, is expected to be nominated for a position in the Donald Trump administration as director of national intelligence, according to major national news outlets.

Coats, who served in the House of Representatives and the Senate, would be Dan Coats the successor to current intelligence director James R. Clapper. The Associated Press, Washington Post and New York Times cited an unnamed Trump transition team official in their reports.

Coats graduated from the IU Robert H. McKinney School of Law in 1971 after serving in the U.S. Army from 1966 to 1968. He represented Indiana’s fourth district in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1981 to 1989.

When Dan Quayle was elected to vice president of the U.S. in 1988, Coats was appointed to his seat in the Senate. Coats had previously served as a district representative for Quayle in 1976. Coats served the remainder of Quayle’s term and was later re-elected to a full term, serving in Senate until 1999.

Coats was named the U.S. ambassador to Germany in 2001. He kept the position until 2005.

Coats was re-elected to Senate in 2010 and served one term. He did not seek reelection in 2016, and his term expired this month.

He served a total of 16 years in the Senate.

While in his final Senate term, Coats was a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Coats’ appointment is expected to be announced as early as Friday, according to major national news outlets’ source.

Local refugee resettlement delayed

The resettlement of new refugees to Bloomington has been delayed after budgeting decisions for refugee resettlement across the nation were postponed until April.

The Bloomington Refugee Support Network, in conjunction with Indianapolis organization Exodus Refugee Immigration, initially planned to begin resettling refugees in March 2017. The application to make Bloomington a refugee resettlement city was approved last September.

Now Diane Legomsky, the coordinator of the Bloomington Refugee Support Network, said the earliest refugees will be arriving is the end of 2017.

Although many of the refugees were expected to be from Syria, after the election of Donald Trump and the naming of his administrationit is now possible that the majority arriving may be Congolese or Burmese instead of Syrian, Legomsky said.

“I’m very worried right now about our new government allowing in refugees from Syria,” she said. “He does have the ability to limit the number of refugees and the authority to limit refugees by country of origin.”

Despite potential limitations on the number of Syrian refugees, Legomsky said she is still optimistic the Bloomington Refugee Support Network will be able to settle refugees by 2018.

In the meantime, the network is working on public advocacy for resettlement in Indiana and helping refugees who are already in the state.

“We are looking into a lot of ways in which our network can be a good force for helping refugees who are already in Indiana,” Legomsky said.

“Those that are already resettled could use a lot of help.”

The refugee resettlement program in Bloomington has sparked some controversy in the local community, particularly over the possible settlement of refugees from Syria.

Opponents of Syrian refugee resettlement have raised concerns about Islamic State group affiliation, illnesses and insufficient vetting processes.

“The CIA and the FBI have said that they cannot totally vet these people, and I believe that it is dangerous to allow them here without knowing if there are terrorists among them,” said Phyllis Finley, the president of the Monroe County Republican Women’s Club and member of the refugee opposition group Grassroots Conservatives. “I believe it would be good if the United States of America would help these people where they are — in their own country.”

Syrians, whose arrivals in the United States are most threatened by the new administration, face several challenges, such as language barriers and dealing with the trauma of war, when coming to a new

country.

Abdul Baram, who moved out of Aleppo, Syria, almost 50 years ago and is an electrical engineer in Bloomington, can attest to the difficulties Syrians face both inside their own country and once they arrive in the U.S. In addition to struggling to survive and finding basic necessities in Syria many people live under the threat of attack every day.

“They have no jobs, their house has been hit, children killed, so they got hit in many ways,” Baram said. “Economically there’s no job, their homes have been destroyed, and children, some of their relatives as well, killed, and they do not have alternative resources to support themselves.”

The civil war in Syria has caused nearly five million refugees to flee their home country and has internally displaced more than six million more, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.The U.S.‘s current yearly quota for Syrian refugees is placed at ten thousand people, which leaves most people to escape to the geographically closer Europe or Turkey if they are financially able to leave Syria, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

“The whole entire international community, they deserted the Syrians,” Baram said. “The Syrian people are victims — victims of the civil war that is going on in their country and victims of the in-

ternational community that does not provide enough at least to survive.”

Although groups such as Grassroots Conservatives have spoken against the potential arrival of refugees, the Bloomington community has been largely supportive and welcoming, Legomsky said.

“We have the resources.

We have a community that is more than ready and happy to accept them,” Legomsky said. “We can help them not only with love and passion but also with resources.”

Even if no federal funding is allocated to refugee resettlement, groups like Exodus Refugee Immigration and the Bloomington Refugee Support Network have other resources available. The network will have a private meeting later in the month to discuss its next steps.

Middle Way House daycare recognized by state

By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601

Middle Way House’s Rise & Shine Daycare recently received recognition from the state of Indiana as a Level 3 Paths to QUALITY facility.

The recognition means Middle Way House is providing a higher quality of care for the children they serve, community programs coordinator Debra Morrow said. Middle Way House is a nonprofit organization that serves survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.

“Our families that we serve are either in our transitional housing program or in our shelter, and these are families that childcare can be a real challenge for, especially quality childcare,” Morrow said. “To know that we are able to make the

parents feel comfortable in knowing that their children are in a safe and well-rounded environment is important.”

The Paths to QUALITY system is a childcare rating and improvement system in Indiana. According to its website, it is “a free resource to help families make informed decisions and to help early care and education providers improve the quality of their programs.”

The system has four levels. Level 3 means the childcare program uses a planned curriculum to prepare children for kindergarten and serve their developmental needs and creates a safe and supportive environment.

The Rise & Shine Daycare program stays conscious of the unique needs of children and families who are living in the organization’s emergency

shelter or transitional housing, childcare coordinator Marcella Ettinger said.

“Level 3 means we are one of the higher quality programs in Monroe County,” Ettinger said. “There are not many programs that are similar to what we do.”

The Level 3 rating makes the program eligible for more funding from grants and other financial sources, Ettinger said. This includes federal funding from the Child Care and Development Fund and Chances and Services for Youth programs.

The highest rating in Paths to QUALITY is Level 4, which means the program has achieved national accreditation. Ettinger said Middle Way House will be working toward this next level in the future.

One of the biggest barri-

ers to being able to get a job is childcare, Morrow said.

Many of the people who come to Middle Way House have been prevented from working because of an abusive relationship, but Rise & Shine Daycare allows them to search for jobs with the knowledge that their children are in a safe place.

The children who come from homes with domestic violence have often experienced trauma, and the staff at Middle Way House works to addresses these difficult issues, Morrow said.

“What I appreciate so much is that our staff has an understanding of how trauma affects children and is able to work with them in a very positive way,” Morrow said.

Rise & Shine Daycare offers low-cost childcare to remain affordable for these

families, Ettinger said.

“They are moving out of their home, starting new jobs, coming to different cities,” Ettinger said. “It’s really important that we provide services for low costs to help support them and allow them to save up money so they can get back on their feet.”

Ettinger said the most rewarding part about working for Rise & Shine Daycare is seeing how far the families have come.

Often the families that come to Middle Way House have uprooted their entire lives, she said.

“Watching them grow and develop is just the most incredible thing,” Ettinger said. “For both the kids and the moms, being able to support and encourage them and watch that happen is absolutely incredible.”

Facebook combats fake news Social media site Facebook is taking a stand against malicious news stories An important part of internet use in the United States is the ability to access and interpret content freely without restrictive interference from any particular entity that claims to decide what is true.

News organizations have an obligation to guide users to credible sources.

The social media site Facebook announced Dec. 15 it would begin to address the fake news problem by making fake news easier to report and by working with fact-checking organizations.

If one of those organizations — including Snopes, PolitiFact, the Associated Press, factcheck.org, and ABC News — deems an article false, Facebook

will mark it as “disputed” to warn users that the validity of its content is questionable.

Once marked, users who attempt to share a story will receive a pop-up to warn them about its content, and the story will occupy a lower positions in users’ news feeds.

Many of the sites that post such articles make money through third-party advertising, and these sites will lose the ability to insert themselves into ads on Facebook and to display Facebook ads on their own pages.

As of September 2016, Facebook is also a member of the First Draft News Coalition, a Google-backed organization that includes

partners such as Twitter, the New York Times, CNN, and the Washington Post.

The aim of the coalition is to help these organizations manage the process of verifying true stories and stopping the spread of fake stories.

All of these measures guard users against false content without making Facebook employees official arbiters of truth, as Facebook News Feed Vice President Adam Mosseri wrote in the Dec. 15 release.

Other sites, including popular forum sites Reddit and 4chan, accused of spreading fake news should follow Facebook’s example and implement policies appropriate to their platforms that provide users with

similar guidance.

Considering that advertising allows fake news sites to expand circulation and make a profit, social media and real news sites should prioritize policies that limit such deceptive advertisements.

On the level of individual users — especially those who identify as skeptics and place their own judgment above the likes of Facebook, Google, and others with similarly significant internet presences — smart news consumption is essential.

Keep an eye out for red flags, such as articles written by made-up authors, sites that list very little or false contact information, and stories that manipulate

authentic news coverage or rely on unprofessional blogs for evidence.

Make use of fact-checking organizations such as the aforementioned sources working with Facebook to verify stories you encounter elsewhere on the internet that seem suspicious.

When you plan to share a story, be sure its content is true and its author is authentic and professional.

You don’t want to make a fool out of yourself.

We need to respect the truth and those who devote themselves to it. Restoring public trust in the news will be a collaborative process, one in which both organizations and individuals should absolutely participate.

LUKE’S LETTER

Make more realistic New Year’s resolutions

How Donald Trump affects Syria

With the New Year upon us, many people have decided upon their resolutions.

Instead of simply taking 2017 as a clean slate, though, we should also look at it as a chance to reflect on the previous year.

Many people claim with the new year comes a new version of themselves.

They’re ready to start anew and build up to be a different person.

It’s kind of hard to do that without taking into consideration what was done the year before.

Making resolutions is not as easy as it seems, and this is proven by how many people break their resolutions or completely forget about them.

Too often we start with high hopes for the year only to find we didn’t have as much conviction as we thought.

The first step in creating a good resolution is to realize what is too big of a goal and what is a reasonable goal you can actually achieve.

Telling yourself that you are going to become the thinnest you have ever been might not be reasonable because you aren’t explaining to yourself what that even means.

It might not be healthy depending on what that number on the scale would show.

Another thing to consider is why you are making these goals in the first place. What happened within the last year that made you come up with this resolution?

This is where reflecting on the past year comes into play.

In order to make a resolution that you can succeed with and gain from, you have to come to terms with what led to that.

Don’t pick something just because it’s going to sound like a good resolution. If you have no strong feelings toward your goal,

MIRANDA GARBACIAK is a junior in English.

you won’t feel motivated to continue with it.

You have no one to impress but yourself.

On the other hand, if picking a simple goal that many others will choose is what will work for you, try it out with a group of friends who want to see similar improvement this year.

If you need someone else to be accountable for you, then seeing your friends succeed in their part of the resolution may be enough motivation to keep up your end as well.

Don’t pick a resolution that’s too difficult.

It’s good to have a detailed plan about what you want to accomplish, but sometimes too many details can deter you or stress you out.

Resolutions and goals should be rewarding, not stress-inducing.

If you need to wait until you’ve seen how the first month of 2017 goes, do that. See how you can balance everything you want to do without overwhelming yourself.

Creating a resolution should be an exercise in discovering more about yourself. If you find that resolutions aren’t really your thing, then you still learned something.

Maybe your resolution for the year can be to figure out what next year’s resolution should be.

At the end of the day, don’t let a silly concept stress you out when it should only be a reward system. Don’t strain too much.

You should feel good about accomplishing goals, not stressed out in the pursuit of it. mmgarbac@umail.iu.edu

I enjoy whenever a newscast frames the headline as “What should Trump do about Syria?” The question shocks me because it implies President-elect Donald Trump should be doing anything at all in the Middle East, but it, assuming the United States has a right or duty to shape the history of a nation it helped destroy, is also asking what the U.S. should do about Syria.

Replace Syria with Libya, Iraq, Venezuela, Chile, Iran, Mexico or the Native Americans. The U.S. is founded on the idea that we are indispensable or exceptional.

To quote former Secretary of State Madeline Albright, “But if we have to use force, it is because we are America.

We are the indispensable nation. We stand tall, and we see further than other countries into the future, and we see the danger here to all of us.”

The phrase “American exceptionalism” fascinates me because it has the word “exception” in it. A longtime theory in political science discusses how a state claims a monopoly on the use of force by claiming it has an exception to do whatever it pleases. Many states claim to be exceptional.

The myth of American exceptionalism is nothing distinct.

This ideology seeps into how media coverage portrays the actions of us vs.

the actions of them, especially when it comes to matters of imperialism. When Russia bombs U.S.-backed Islamic shock troops in Aleppo, Syria, and kills civilians, every international institution imaginable decries it.

When the U.S. bombs the Islamic State group and kills hundreds of civilians, the press celebrates it as a success against our enemies.

No one ever discusses Saudi Arabia’s murderous war in Yemen, where Saudi airstrikes, backed by the U.S., have killed thousands of people. Chemical weapons have been used, and famine is widespread, but not a peep of it in the U.S. because it is done by us and our allies.

The ongoing hysterical anti-Russian campaign in the media is because the U.S. and its cohorts — Saudi Arabia, Europe, Israel and Turkey — in this war have failed to overthrow the government of Bashar al-Assad.

Now Russia and Tukey are at détente, and peace talks in Iran to determine the future of Syria have excluded the U.S. Turkey is instead encouraging the gulf states to join.

Whether Trump will resist the anti-Russian/Assad/ Iran rhetoric coming out of Washington, D.C., is yet to be seen. If Trump won’t participate in talks, it could mean worsened political

isolation in the region.

The blockade to peace in Syria is the continued existence of the rebels and IS within Syrian territory. Once the U.S. withdraws support from the rebels, the region must cope with the wave of terrorism that is already happening and will continue to happen.

IS is killing scores in Iraq, and Turkey continues to be a victim of major terrorist attacks, such as the assassination of the Russian ambassador and the New Year’s Eve shooting in Istanbul.

Apparently, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey was not expecting the rebels he was supporting in Syria to turn on him.

Aside from joining the talks in Iran, there isn’t much Trump can do in Syria.

The U.S.’s support of the rebels during the past six years created a situation like when the U.S. backed Afghan rebels in the 1980s.

International terrorism ensued once the U.S. left Afghanistan.

We must hope something similar does not happen. luwrobin@umail.iu.edu

This holiday season actress, activist and icon Carrie Fisher died at age 60. I didn’t know her personally — in fact, like so many of Carrie’s fans, I never met her.

However, looking back on my young life, Fisher’s influence on me feels undeniable.

The first time I saw Fisher was as Princess Leia in the original Star Wars films, and I was instantly captivated.

Leia was bright, daring, brave, and vicious — by all means a modern day nasty woman wrapped up in 1970s space glamour.

As a shy 10-year-old already grappling with a mental illness I hadn’t yet realized afflicted me, Leia was everything I wanted to be and everything I wasn’t.

Over the next several years of my adolescence, as my depression and crippling anxiety bobbed and weaved in and out of my life, Leia was a constant figure.

I’ll be honest. Depression is a disgusting illness that I hate mostly because it spent most of its time trying to take away the things I love most.

For me, depression came in the form of numbness. At my worst, I felt no remnants of the enthusiasm for life and experiences I once cherished. However, in the absence of my own passion, I began to borrow Leia’s.

In moments that required an enthusiastic response, I followed Leia’s emotional pathways like a script and used her anger, joy and determination as a template upon which I rebuilt my own emotional database.

As I slowly climbed out of the hole my own mind had tried to trap me in, Fisher’s princess was — pardon the pun — a new hope for a little depressed girl out of her depth.

Years later, as I began to fancy myself a writer and comedian, Fisher came back into my life.

This time she was herself. In my teenage years, which were so often characterized by the careful avoidance of my true feelings, I discovered that, like me, Fisher struggled with mental illnesses.

With the unabashed honesty I so desperately craved, Fisher spoke extensively about her ugly struggles with mental illness.

As a young person, it was this inspirational intersection of Fisher, the mental health activist, and Fisher as Princess Leia that propelled me further toward both acceptance and recovery.

When the news broke last week that Fisher had died, there was a part of me that felt like I had lost an old friend.

It’s a testament to Fisher’s effect on my life and the lives of others that so many people around the world are quietly mourning her.

Fisher wrote in her 2008 autobiography, “Wishful Drinking,” “no matter how I go, I want it reported that I drowned in moonlight, strangled by my own bra.”

It feels only right that, in some small exchange for her cameo role in my mental health recovery saga, I end my reminiscence on her effect in the way she requested all her obituaries read.

Carrie Fisher died Dec. 27. She drowned in moonlight, and it has been reported that she was strangled by her own bra. rjdague@umail.iu.edu

National Championship in 1982.

In the 1991-92 season, Loring coached the singles to 69-0, dual matches to 54-0 and 15-0 in the Big Ten Championships. This led to his being named both Big Ten and Midwest Coach of the Year.

He was named Big Ten coach of the year four times, Midwest coach of the year five times and national coach of the year twice throughout his career.

Despite the historic career, Loring decided it was time to retire.

“Being able to spend more time with my two teenage daughters and family was one of the main reasons, but it’s a lot of other things, too,” Loring said. “Not many people last in this profession long. It’s a lot of hours, weekends and travel, and when you’re 27 like when I got here, it was fun and exciting. It got to the point where I was looking forward to practice every day but I wasn’t looking forward to the next road trip.”

A lot of coaches reflect on their big wins and records, but for Loring, all his accolades and accomplishments were never something he paid much attention to.

He said he didn’t even know he was close to a career milestone until someone would tell him.

“Coaching is not about titles or wins or losses,” Loring said in a letter to his players and staff. “It is about one life influencing another. When I look at our 100-percent graduation rate and my office bulletin board full of Christmas cards, baby pictures and wedding announcements, I know I have been successful.”

Many of Loring’s favorite memories came from off the court rather than on it.

He remembers all the weddings, senior lunches and Christmas parties. Loring said there’s loads and loads of memories that have nothing to do with the tennis court.

into Taylor’s actions with the students, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Two IPS employees, Shalon Dabney and Lela Hester, both of whom worked in human resources, were charged with misdemeanors for failing to report the allegations against Taylor to DCS. Shana Taylor The charge against Hester was dismissed, and Dabney has gotten the charge removed from her record.

IPS superintendent Lewis Ferebee openly criticized the district.

“At the corpus of these careless errors is a very disappointing tangle of miscommunication,” Ferebee said in a statement last March.

Since Taylor’s arrest last March, three IPS officials have resigned, and two have been fired.

A former student and Cox Scholar at IU, Taylor worked as a counselor in an IPS alternative education program for students with learning and behavioral difficulties.

Taylor was one of three Indianapolis educators to be accused of sexual abuse last year. The others were Kyle Cox, a former basketball coach at Park Tudor School, and Sameer Girish Thakar, a former teacher at North Central High School.

After her hearing ended, Taylor lingered in the courtroom.

She sat alone in the back row, reading the paperwork and glancing outside, where a group of reporters waited.

Even after her attorney left, Taylor hid in the doorway. She didn’t come out until her attorney beckoned her.

The reporters shouted over each other while they rushed after Taylor, who stared at the ground as she walked toward the elevator.

“Why did you do it?”

“Are you really guilty?”

“Are you sorry for what you’ve done?”

The reporters were still yelling as the elevator door shut.

The IU women’s tennis team won the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women National Championship in 1982. Loring was IU’s head coach for 40 years until he announced his retirement Thursday.

pel said Loring really helped her blossom as a player and as a person.

“Coach Loring was not only such a great coach of this team but taught me to be a great person. He cared so much for his players and Indiana and making us the best players we can be,” Appel said. “I feel I have developed and improved many important aspects of my game because of his experience and work ethic. He will be missed so much from our team, and I wish him all the best.”

The new man for the job is Ramiro Azcui. Azcui is in his 25th year as an assistant coach, and Loring

said he thinks it will be a smooth transition for everyone with Azcui taking over as opposed to someone outside, he said.

“Ramiro brings in a ton of institutional knowledge,” Loring said. “If they brought in somebody new they wouldn’t know where the equipment room is. All the alumni and all the players know him. We’ve got really good recruiting classes for 2017-2018 that are already committed, and they know Ramiro so they won’t be going anywhere so it will be just a very smooth transition.”

Azcui has his fair share of accolades as well.

In 1997, 1999 and 2004, he won the Midwest Assistant Coach of the Year Award and was named the ITA National Assistant Coach of the Year in 2004.

“Today is a bittersweet day for IU and college tennis as one of greatest coaches in history is stepping down after 40 years of aservice to this wonderful university,” Azcui said in a release from IU Athletics. “Coach Loring’s contributions on and off the court have meant so much to Indiana, college tennis, and to five decades of IU women’s tennis players. I am humbled and excited to continue the great tradition at Indiana that we

have established over so many years.”

Though his historic and story-filled career is coming to an end after 44 years, Loring said he is coming away from the job and the courts happy, rather than sad.

“I want to say thank you to all my wonderful players, all my IU colleagues and all my Bloomington friends,” Loring said in the letter.

“When I look back, I’ll remember the words of that great American author, Dr. Seuss. ‘Do not cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.’ I’m walking away with a big smile on my face.”

LOOKING FOR A WIN IU puts three-game losing streak on the line against Illinois

By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali

At the end of November, IU men’s basketball fans felt strong about the national title hopes of their team.

IU had knocked off Kansas and North Carolina within the first three weeks of the season, and although IU had had a hiccup on the road against Fort Wayne, Hoosier fans were willing to look the other way after the victory against the Tar Heels.

Fast forward a month, and the Hoosiers are 0-2 in the Big Ten and in the midst of their longest losing streak since the end of the 2013-14 season, when they failed to make the NCAA tournament.

With Illinois coming to town at 5 p.m. Saturday, IU has a chance to end its three-game skid and grab its first conference win of the year. But

what’s been the main reason for the Hoosiers’ struggles as of late?

“Yeah, I think the defense. Right?

That’s just what it is,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. “I think it’s not as complicated as — the turnovers have been an issue here and there.

There’s no question, in all games. I shouldn’t say they’re an issue here and there, but the defense is what’s got to pick up — the defense.”

The defense has been the main issue for IU in three consecutive losses to Nebraska, Louisville and Wisconsin. The Hoosiers have allowed nearly 80 points per game, but the long-range shooting and turnovers have been part of the problem as well.

IU turned the ball over 13 times against Wisconsin, and the Badgers turned those turnovers into 23 points. Additionally, IU has shot just 32 percent from distance in the last three losses combined. Before the

losing streak IU’s average was nearly 40 percent from beyond the arc.

The game against the Illini on Saturday could become a shootout, and if the Hoosiers can tighten up the defense and limit turnovers they’ll be in good shape.

“We grew together as a group.

We don’t let anybody stray off,” sophomore forward Juwan Morgan said. “It’s times like these where you really find out, and we’re all for each other on and off the court, and we just have to keep building.”

Illinois enters the matchup second to last in scoring defense in the Big Ten. The Illini allow 71 points per game. The Hoosiers, on the other hand, are giving up nearly 69 points per contest and are 11th out of 14 Big Ten teams in that category.

Both teams can put up their fair share of points on the offensive end.

Even after dropping three consecutive games, the Hoosiers still lead

the Big Ten in scoring with more than 85 points per game, and the Illini are fourth in the conference at 78 points per game. Senior forward Malcolm Hill and his nearly 19 points per game do most of the damage.

Hill is shooting 41 percent from distance, and fellow senior guard Tracy Abrams can also stroke it for the Illini. Abrams shoots nearly 50 percent from beyond the arc. Crean said after the Wisconsin game the 3-point defense was over-helping too much and challenging shots too late, but IU Assistant Athletic Director Jayd Grossman made a point to the nine-year head coach that gives Crean optimism heading forward.

“Jayd Grossman made a good point. It’s something I guess I’ve got to think of. I don’t think of it much.

Nobody wants to hear it. I don’t SEE ILLINOIS, PAGE 15

Blackmon put his hands up and began to shuffle his feet already in the motion of a swing. He could see the basket. Just catch and rip, and he would finally put both himself and the Hoosiers on the scoreboard.

Instead Wisconsin’s Zak Showalter jumped the pass for an easy fast-break layup. The Badgers now led 13-0 less than three minutes into the game.

It was a perfect summation of one of the main reasons that IU has looked subpar as of late. The Hoosiers’ guard play isn’t up to snuff right now.

A bulk of the Hoosiers’ glitches comes from one of their supposed bright spots, a backcourt that had been heralded before the season.

The trio of Blackmon, Newkirk and junior guard Robert Johnson has not just been mediocre. They’ve been abysmal during the last 120 minutes.

With IU’s upcoming contest against Illinois, IU must stop the

three-game slide and emerge victorious, especially at Assembly Hall.

IU Coach Tom Crean said he knows how pivotal this game is to getting back on the right track.

All of the motivational speeches and pregame film studies won’t matter if the trio handling the ball doesn’t come out with more fire and take the game over from the get-go.

We all know they can score.

When Newkirk isn’t turning the ball over, he’s adept at getting to the rim and finishing or drawing a foul.

Blackmon and Johnson can both heat up behind the 3-point line and score in a myriad of ways. Even with the recent pedestrian shooting from the backcourt, that hasn’t been its main drawback.

Instead, it has been the guards’ collective inability to run cohesive plays and set up teammates.

With ball in hand the Hoosiers and Newkirk especially have to start running their offensive sets instead of relying on isolation-ball.

This may seem simple, but starting a play at the 25-second mark gives you more time than starting a play at the nine-second mark.

Greg Gottfried is a senior in journalism.

That’s analysis for you.

Furthermore, when the team finally begins its possession, the guards are often trying to create for themselves instead of their teammates. Sophomore big man Thomas Bryant has taken a tremendous step back this season, and one of the reasons why is he no longer has a slashing point guard able to get him the ball right where he needs it. In its place, Bryant has to create for himself through post-ups, a skill he doesn’t have consistently.

Before the season began, the main apprehension was how the team would adjust losing playmaker Yogi Ferrell. Who would take the reins?

Associate head coach Tim Buckley said he expected the players to adjust playing without Ferrell. The Hoosiers would have even better ball movement and even better cutting.

That has obviously not been the case in the past few games. The team, watching and hoping that one of the ball-handlers will make

something out of nothing, still undergoes its moments of malaise.

The problem is that Yogi Ferrell has been replaced by Ferrell knockoffs.

Instead of distributing and running an offense, the guards are always looking to score.

Being able to create for oneself is a fine attribute to have, but when it’s

being done every play by the backcourt, it leads to what we’re witnessing — a loss followed by a loss followed by a loss.

That will have to change against Illinois, or Saturday’s game may be the latest in a long line of losses for the Hoosiers. gigottfr@indiana.edu

Recruit shares insight on decision to join Hoosiers

Jenn Anderson and Tyra Buss go up to contest a Minnesota shot attempt Wednesday night. IU defeated Minnesota 78-62 to move to 2-1 in conference play.

IU rebounds over Minnesota

By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu @jake_the_thomer

Minnesota presented a number of defensive problems for IU women’s basketball on paper.

With a high-scoring backcourt that averages around 35 points per game and a 6-foot-5-inch center that has at least two inches on any Hoosier post player, the ingredients were there for a high-scoring affair.

However, after holding the Golden Gophers to just six points in the first quarter, the Hoosiers were able to maintain a steady lead and successfully stifle Minnesota’s three biggest scoring threats in a 78-62 win Wednesday night in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

“Good bounce-back win for us,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. “This was an impor-

tant game after coming off of a loss against Ohio State.

We figured, with Minnesota coming in here 0-2 in the Big Ten, that we were not just going to get a shot but that we were going to get their best shot.”

Sophomore guard Kenisha Bell and junior guard Carlie Wagner combined for a large chunk of the scoring for the Golden Gophers as they usually do, but Wagner was held to just four points through three quarters and just 4-12 shooting in the game.

Likewise, Minnesota’s junior center Bryanna Fernstrom was largely held in check. She was just 2-9 from the field. The backcourt of Bell and Wagner, in conjunction with the size problems posed by the Gopher frontcourt, were the main defensive points of empha-

sis for IU headed into the game, and Moren said she was pleased with how her team handled them.

Three-point shooting anchored the Hoosiers’ offensive production. Four IU players hit multiple 3-pointers en route to a 10-23 team performance. Senior guard Alexis Gassion scored a career-high 26 points while adding five rebounds and five assists.

A 14-0 run keyed by three consecutive made 3-pointers put the Hoosiers up big early in the first quarter.

From there, the Minnesota deficit was never in single digits. By halftime, IU led 42-23, and, despite a rough third quarter, the Hoosiers were able to play with a comfortable lead throughout the fourth. Junior forward Amanda Cahill credited strong defense for the

fast start.

“I think just really coming out and playing good defense,” Cahill said of what went right early. “I know we had a couple lapses here and there, but we made up for it by boxing out.”

By the end of the game, IU had forced 22 turnovers and limited the Gophers to just 37-percent shooting as a team. Not only did Gassion score 26 on the offensive end, but, as the primary defender assigned to guard Wagner, she was able to hold the Gophers’ leading scorer to just 11 points.

The Hoosiers are now 12-4 on the season and 2-1 in the Big Ten. With the loss, Minnesota dropped to 9-7 overall and 0-3 in conference play. Up next for IU is a pair of road games at SEE MINNESOTA, PAGE 15

Tramar Reece first started receiving football recruitment interest from IU around this time last year.

One of the first schools he started talking to but one of the last to make him Tramar Reece an offer, the Hoosiers received his commitment June 19, 2016, after an unofficial visit Reece had taken to Bloomington earlier in the year.

The 6-foot-3, 210pound defensive end from Clearwater, Florida, is a 247Sports Composite three-star recruit.

He is one of 17 players currently committed to IU in the 2017 recruiting class and will play under Coach Tom Allen.

He shared a little insight into his recruitment with the Indiana Daily Student and why he made the decision to be one of the many Florida natives to become Hoosiers.

What other schools were recruiting you, and what led you to choose IU instead of those schools?

“UCF was talking to me a lot, Iowa State, Illinois.

They were pretty much like the top schools talking to me.

“Overall I just felt most comfortable with Indiana. It’s a great school all around, and the program is on the rise.

“They’re going in the right direction. Even after the coach left, I still feel

like they have the pieces they need and are still continuing to climb.”

What IU coaches were the main coaches in your recruitment, and how did they foster a relationship with you?

“I mostly talked to Coach (Greg) Frey because he went to my high school, so we had that connection already, and then Coach (Mark) Hagen, being a Dline coach, I talked to him a lot.

“Those were my recruiting coaches, but as far as building a relationship, as I said me and Frey went to the same high school so we were already connected that way.

“Then, just picking Hagen’s mind, that’s just one of the best things I’ve ever done. Just being able to talk to him, both of them, that was pretty cool.”

What other recruits did you talk with during your recruitment?

“I was talking to Tyler Knight from Northside (Christian School) and Tom Allen’s son from Plant (High School), the coach’s son.

“I was talking to them a lot and kept saying how they’re one of the best onthe-rise teams for football because they’re really well-known for basketball, but they’re on the rise in football. I was talking to them a lot about that.”

With the coaching changes, are other schools trying to capitalize on any possibility uncertainty?

“I wouldn’t say that they’re talking to me more, but they are still talking to me. Nothing really that different.”

Junior forward Amanda Cahill defends against Northern Kentucky January 5. The Hoosiers defeated the Norse, 100-49.

Previous foul trouble doesn’t hold Cahill back

By Josh Eastern @JoshEastern | jeastern@indiana.edu

Committing two fouls less than two minutes into the game wasn’t ideal for junior forward Amanda Cahill.

Cahill, who posted a career-high 28 points Saturday for IU women’s basketball against Ohio State, was looking to follow that Wednesday night against the Minnesota Golden Gophers.

The early infractions left her in foul trouble for nearly the entire night, but she made the most of her time on the floor.

With Cahill on the bench for a majority of the night, others stepped up, and the Ohio native contributed enough for IU to knock off

Minnesota, 78-62, Wednesday in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

“It’s always kind of a bummer to get in foul trouble, but on the bench I wanted to keep the energy and really stay engaged in the game,” Cahill said. “Just because I’m out doesn’t mean I can’t be there for my teammates, and once I come back in just making the most of minutes I get, playing hard and taking advantage of the rest I got.”

Cahill was in the starting lineup as usual — she’s started all 80 games she’s played at IU. Her first foul came with 8:47 in the first quarter. It was an early one, and it meant she now had to be careful.

More than 40 seconds later the whistle was blown

again. The ref signaled 33, Cahill’s number, to the scorer’s table, and just like that she was sitting on the bench to avoid adding to the two fouls she already had.

After her 28-point performance, Wednesday’s game could have been a chance for an encore against a lesstalented Minnesota team.

Playing just 16 minutes would have made it tough to repeat her outing against the Buckeyes, but the junior used those 16 minutes wisely.

Cahill managed 12 points and nine rebounds in her relatively brief time on the court.

She even had the guts to step in and take a charge with four fouls during the

fourth quarter. “(Cahill) being on the floor is always a better thing for us,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. “Cahill has been in that high post area a lot, and tonight we got to see when she gets in there, she can really score the ball.”

Cahill carried the load Saturday despite the loss to Ohio State. That was much needed because junior guard Tyra Buss has been somewhat held in check in the past two games. Ohio State held her to just 13 points and Minnesota did the same.

On Wednesday she was just four of eight from the field and two of six from the line.

Nonetheless, she still has scored in double figures in 53 consecutive games.

With Buss struggling with her shot and Cahill in foul trouble, someone else had to step up. It was senior guard Alexis Gassion. She finished with a career-high 26 points to go along with five rebounds and five assists. She was on the floor for a gamehigh 37 minutes.

Gassion stepped up in a much-needed way for IU in a game they needed to have.

Moren said after the game Gassion was the one who stayed aggressive offensively all game long.

Whether it is Cahill, Buss or Gassion doesn’t necessarily matter. What does matter is someone takes charge and the others help in any way possible.

Despite carrying the bur-

IU (12-4) at Michigan (13-3) 6 p.m., Jan. 10, Ann Arbor, MI den of foul trouble Wednesday, Cahill certainly aided the cause.

“I never want to get to a point with Cahill that I take her for granted, but I’m never surprised with what she gives us and what she provides for us as a team,” Moren said.

“Whatever our team needs at the time, she’s going to do. She’s going to be aggressive, she’s going to try to come up with huge rebounds, 50-50 balls. The kid plays hard on both ends.”

Art studio extends hours for First Friday

By Alison Graham akgraham@indiana.edu @alisonkgraham

When Kathy Barton was about 11 years old, she said she read her favorite comic books on a convent terrace in Ferdinand, Indiana.

One day, Barton said a group of nuns came out with their sketchbooks to fill in their drawings with watercolor. She could not help but watch. They showed her how to work with the thin, swirling colors, and she instantly fell in love.

Barton said she went home and started practicing on her own. She painted throughout high school but put it on hold for her family and career. Now in retirement, she finally has time to return to her craft — watercolor landscapes.

Barton teamed up with three other artists in Bloomington to create Flowing Colors Studio, where the artists could work on their paintings in a public space.

The studio opened in November for the founders, local artists Barton, Patricia C. Coleman, Joanne Shank and Don Geyra.

They are the only artists to practice and display in the space.

Their studios were previously in their homes,

where they could not easily show people what they were working on. Now they are able to open their studio up to show off and sell their works.

“People are still getting to know that we’re there,” Shank said. “I want people to get to see a variety of work from the four of us on display.”

The studio is closed Sunday through Wednesday for the four artists to work but is open to the public every Thursday through Saturday. This Friday, the studio will extend its hours to accommodate the First Friday crowds and will be open from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The studio will also be open from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Saturday.

Shank said she has been painting for most of her life and specializes in Chinese brush painting. She recently has started to move into watercolors and focuses on local birds and vegetation.

“Nature is endlessly inspiring,” Shank said. “I love the different seasons and colors. Everything is always changing and vibrant.”

Not only does the group create watercolor and Chinese brush paintings, but it incorporates other types of work by Shank, Barton, Coleman and Geyra as well.

The studio has small, handcrafted books or journals, acrylic paintings, folded origami with watercolor paintings on them, and oil paintings. The items are for sale at a range of prices depending on size, media and content.

In addition to the open studio, people can arrange to have an appointment with one of the artists if they want to further discuss their work or arrange to purchase a piece.

During the open studio hours, Barton said the four members are hoping someone will be demonstrating oil, watercolor or acrylic painting for crowds to observe their process.

Barton said she knows people find watercolor hard and frustrating but hopes to show people how the medium really works.

She meets with a group every week to go to different locations to paint. They can visit anywhere from a farm or someone’s garden and find inspiration for scenes. Her favorite is the T.C. Steele Historic Site in Brown County because she has found the most inspiration there.

“When I sit down with my watercolors and brush, things just kind of flow for me,” Barton said.

Library to have musical storytime event Saturday

The Venue Fine Art & Gifts is beginning the year by incorporating a new hanging exhibit with its existing metal exhibition, which has covered the floor of the gallery since December.

The two-dimensional painting work of Anneke Dekker will be unveiled at this month’s First Friday event, starting at 5 p.m. The paintings will hang alongside Bert Gilbert’s sculpture show, which will continue its run at the Venue through the month.

Dave Colman, curator of the Venue, said Dekker’s work reflects a lifetime of movement from one home to another.

“Anneke is Dutch, lived for a number of years in South Africa and has lived for a while in LaPorte, Indiana,” Colman said. “She has a distinctive style that has been heavily influenced by

Award-winning musician and Bloomington resident Emmy Brockman will perform a musical storytime event Saturday at the Monroe County Public Library, library children’s strategist Lisa Champelli said.

The event will feature children’s stories, songs and rhymes performed by Brockman, Champelli said.

Some of these songs will feature Brockman playing her own guitar. The event will be entertaining and educational for children, Champelli said.

“In addition to reading and talking with children, singing with children also helps to develop literacy skills since singing slows language down and allows children to hear and play with the smaller sounds in words,” Champelli said.

The event is intended for children between the ages

her South African experience.”

Colman said Dekker, now in her 60s, is drawn to Bloomington now because of a grandson who goes to IU, though her life has taken her around the world because of her husband’s career.

Dekker began by moving to South Africa, moved around the United States then to LaPorte, where she

has been creating art since, Colman said.

“They have a spectacular home up there. Her home is like an art display,” Colman said. “She’s been a leader of the art community in Michigan City LaPorte for many years. It’s really the circumstance of her grandson going to school here that has allowed us to get her art.”

of two and six, though families are encouraged to experience the event with their children, library senior information assistant Brandon Rome said. The event will take place from 10:30 a.m. to 11 a.m.

This is will be Brockman’s second time participating in this program after performing for the first time in December, Champelli said. She said children who attended the December musical storytime were engaged, dancing and singing along with Brockman’s music.

“We are thrilled that Emmy could repeat this program at the library on a Saturday morning in January and February,” Champelli said.

Brockman is currently working as the director of education for the WonderLab Museum of Science, Health and Technology, according to her website. Champelli said Brockman’s music earned her a Parents’ Choice

Contest runs from Jan. 6-12. Visit idsnews.com/rules for full contest details.

Award and an Independent Music Award for her debut album “Dragon Dreams.”

Brockman’s album is available for sale on her website, and she offers free listens to the songs “Dinosaurs Are For Roaring,” “Tricky Way” and “The Hoity-Toity Tortoise.” Brockman provides the lyrics to all the songs she sings on the album. This availability allows for further practicing with the children after the event.

The Monroe County Public Library puts on a variety of other events for children to increase its service capacity, Champelli said. These events usually feature other educators and performers like Brockman to present the educational material in a creative way.

Cornerback Rashard Fant reacts to Michigan scoring on November 14, 2015 at home. The Hoosiers lost in double overtime, 41-48.

REBECCA MEHLING | IDS

Rashard Fant will spend one more year on the IU football team, the junior cornerback confirmed on Twitter.

“One More Year; I’m in! #IUFB,” he tweeted Thursday morning.

The Atlanta native earned a spot on the AllBig Ten second team with his three interceptions and

conference-leading 17 pass breakups. Among active NCAA players, he is first in career passes defended with 48 with an average 1.3 per game in 38 appearances. He was tied for second nationally in both 2015 and 2016 for pass breakups with 22 and 17, respectively.

IU graduate student releases new album making ambient music as Rest You Sleeping Giant for more than two years now.

He has released a variety of demos, including a split album with the ambient band Ky== and a creative commons release called “Coldharvest I,” and soundtracks online.

To create his sleepy sounds, Helfrich said he used a variety of effects pedals and loops on his guitar. Some tracks, like the nearly 12-minute-long “Left to Decay,” contain upwards of 30 different loops to create the specific wall of sound often associated with ambient and shoegaze music. “‘Shoegaze’ can be such a subjective term, but my definition for it is really anything using a lot of effects pedals,” Helfrich said. “You can listen to a lot of popular albums now and hear lots of shoegaze elements.”

A self-proclaimed pedal nut, Helfrich said he owns upwards of 40 effects pedals.

With his variety of reverb, delay and looper pedals, he can manipulate his guitar to create the ethereal sound of Rest You Sleeping Giant.

In addition to effects pedals, Helfrich said he has taken to using more unorthodox objects to help him create the right sound. He’s used a violin bow, a paintbrush and a screwdriver against his guitar to create a glissando effect.

“I love doing stuff like that, because it’s very creepy,”

By Sierra Vandervort svanderv@indiana.edu @the_whimsical

On a Friday night in July on the south side of Bloomington, dozens of listeners sat cross-legged on the concrete floors of the collective event space called the Void.

Among piles of kick drums, mic stands and guitar cases, Ethan Helfrich stood alone on the stage. He slowly dragged a violin bow across his guitar while a single candle burned at his feet. A black and white video of hazy tree lines and creek beds played in the background. His ambient, meditative solo project, Rest You Sleeping Giant, had his audience transfixed.

After uploading six of his projects to Bandcamp, Helfrich’s latest album, “Spirits”, was released on cassette and vinyl Dec.16. He performed some of the tracks from “Spirits” at release shows Dec. 14 in Indianapolis and Dec. 16 in Kokomo, Indiana.

Recorded at his home on cassette tapes, the six tracks of “Spirits” navigate soft and blissful landscapes that Helfrich described in contrast as “marked by a long and cold journey through a series of hardships.”

“I refer to it not necessarily as the album I wanted to put out but the one that came out of what was going on in my life at that time,” Helfrich said.

Helfrich has been

» VENUE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12 Colman said Gilbert also has an interesting artistic perspective because he received a degree in fine arts but has spent the majority of his life focused on running his construction company, Gilbert Construction.

The past six or seven years have been when Gilbert truly returned to art.

He has specifically worked with metal sculpting and casting, Colman said.

“His company has been a major underwriter for WFIU Public Radio for a number of years,” Colman said. “He’s a very sophisticated builder-contractor.

He strikes you much more as a metal sculptor than a contractor, and he’s only just getting back to metal sculpting.”

The decision to display the works of Dekker and Gilbert together this month came from a place of convenience and a motivation to display complementary works simultaneously,

Helfrich said. “It just creates this wonderful atmosphere.

Other times I’ve just smashed my guitars against things — sometimes my shows get kind of weird.”

Although he said he doesn’t like to label himself as a visual artist, Helfrich also designs and creates the visuals for his shows.

His short film “Frost” was originally an interactive project assignment from one of his classes at IU. The 30-minute film contains a compilation of 15-second clips that Helfrich set to a score of his own airy rhythms.

A current graduate student in human computer interaction design at IU , Helfrich said he likes to incorporate the element of interaction into his performances. He finds new ways to integrate lighting and visuals to make his music more engaging.

“Whatever I can make that creates this trip, something where you can sit and feel, see or smell, that’s what I want,” Helfrich said. “I want to be an interactive experience.”

His unique sound has found a home in the alternative music scene of Bloomington. From playing among emo bands in basements to open mic nights at the Players Pub, he has found a wide audience of listeners ready to space out with him.

“There are so many different types of music here,” he said. “And people are open to Colman said.

“Most of the metal sculptures are not wallmounted, except for two that are, so that left our walls open for two-dimensional art,” Colman said.

“You’ll see Anneke’s work sort of matches up with the metal very nicely. She works in blues, grays and silvers. The metal is all metallic, and it works well together.”

The remainder of the semester will include a variety of programming, including the

lots of different types of music even if you’re weird and way out there, and I love Bloomington for that.”

He said his main goal with Rest You Sleeping Giant is to continuation of the Venue’s Tuesday evening lecture series, and a couple of popular events Colman said he looks forward to restarting.

“In the remainder of January, we are doing our emerging artist shows,” Colman said.

“We’ve booked a number of shows for the year — one is metal-smithing, one is a local painter. We’re also particularly looking forward to our Juried Art Show in June and that Ekphrasis event that pairs the poetry with the paintings.”

“The event itself will be a fun way for children and families to spend time together, but parents and other caregivers who attend a program with their children have a shared experience that they can talk more about even after the event itself has concluded,” Champelli said.
