2 rapes reported Saturday to IU campus police From IDS reports
Two rapes were reported to the IU Police Department on Saturday. One alleged rape occurred at about 2:45 p.m. Saturday at Alpha Epsilon Pi, IUPD Capt. Andy Stephenson said. The male suspect invited the female victim into the house to drink and began making unwanted sexual advances toward her, Stephenson said. Alcohol was involved. The suspect doesn’t live in the house but is a member of the fraternity, Stephenson said.

IUPD collected evidence from the victim and the scene and contacted the suspect’s lawyer. They are awaiting a time to interview him. Although there were no witnesses to the event, there were witnesses that saw the two beforehand, who IUPD is interviewing, Stephenson said. The investigation is still active. Another rape was reported to IUPD after someone completed an anonymous rape kit. As of now, IUPD is not investigating the rape per the wishes of the victim, Stephenson said. Laurel Demkovich
Stolen panhandling signs still missing By Dominick Jean drjean@indiana.edu | @Domino_Jean
Street light posts line Kirkwood Avenue and downtown Bloomington while calls for money from homeless people echo after pedestrians. Earlier this month, those posts were adorned with new signs disocuraging panhandling by the City of Bloomington. Twenty-four of the 28 new signs have since been stolen. The crime is currently under investigation by Bloomington Police Department. BPD Sgt. Joe Crider said the police believe all the thefts occurred sometime between Friday, Oct. 7 and Tuesday, Oct. 11. Crider said that he believes a screw gun or a different power tool was used to remove the signs.
As the investigation is still active, BPD Det. Rob Shrake was unable to comment. BPD is, however, encouraging anyone with possible information to contact them about the stolen signs. The signs are a part of an informational campaign and read “Don’t encourage panhandling” and “Contribute to the solution.” The project was first introduced by Mayor John Hamilton in August as part of the Downtown Safety, Civility and Justice Initiative. “We will be establishing a public information campaign to encourage residents who want to help those in need to contribute to social service agencies,” Hamilton said in an address Aug. 10.

Lieutenant governor candidates Hale and Crouch discuss campaign views on role of arts in various state policies. By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu | @lydi_yeah
The Democratic and Republican candidates for lieutenant governor came to WFIU on Monday night to discuss their campaigns’ views on arts and culture in Indiana after the School of Public and Environmental Affairs’ Arts Administration Program extended invitations. “What these women have to say about the arts is going to largely reflect on the policy of their governor candidate,” Michael Wilkerson, director of Arts
Administration Programs said. Both Democrat Christina Hale and Republican Suzanne Crouch were in favor of using the arts to support economic, educational and community growth in Indiana. Hale made a point to mention the positive connection between arts and the younger generations. Crouch emphasized the state’s obligation to promote arts at the community level.

‘The Princess Diaries’ author returns to IU for book signing By Mallory Haag mjhaag@indiana.edu | @MalloryHaag

Author Meg Cabot laughs when talking about her Bloomington childhood home now being rented out on Airbnb. Cabot spoke Monday at the Indiana Memorial Union.
Laughter erupted from the Indiana Memorial Union on Monday night as IU alumna and world-renowned author Meg Cabot flipped through a PowerPoint recounting her life to a crowd full of fans at the signing of her new book. During the event, Cabot, author of “The Princess Diaries,” took pictures with her fans, answered questions from the crowd regarding her current and past work in a questionand-answer session, and ended with signing copies of her new novel “The Boy is Back,” which releases Tuesday. “The idea for this new book came from the basement of a relative of mine,” Cabot said. Cabot showed a picture of the cluttered basement and said they had to hire a person to help her family members get rid of some of their possessions. That hired per-
son was the inspiration for one of her main characters with the same occupation. The novel, intended for an older audience, is written completely through emails, journal entries, Amazon reviews and text messages. It tells the story of a man who hires his ex-girlfriend in order to help his family members get rid of their belongings. Cabot told her audience that the death of her father was also the beginning of her career and her inspiration behind becoming an author. “I realized we don’t have a lot of time in life,” Cabot said. “If there is something you really love doing, then you need to do it.” The author, who was born in Bloomington, said her parents stressed the importance of education at a young age. Her father, a former professor of quantitative business analysis at IU, and her mother, a third grade teacher, inspired
her writing in a variety of ways, Cabot said. Casey Hennings, an IU sophomore and fan of Cabot’s work, said she was excited to see the author and her previous works make an appearance at IU. “I have read books by Meg Cabot in the past, but seeing all of the amazing books that are on display, there are definitely books I want to see in the future,” Hennings said. “I think it’s an incredible opportunity on campus.” Cabot said her time at IU taught her how to accept criticism and work with people with differing opinions. Cabot said anyone who wants to be an author should not give up on what they want to do. “If I had just quit after my first rejection, I wouldn’t be standing up here,” Cabot said. “If you’re writing and you’re getting rejected, but you love what you do, what do you have to lose?”

Kevin Wilson and the Hoosiers look ahead to Northwestern game By Jordan Guskey jguskey@indiana.edu | @JordanGuskey
IU will look to beat Northwestern for the first time since 2008 when the Hoosiers travel to Evanston, Illinois, to take on the Wild-
cats on Saturday in a matchup of .500 teams. IU enters the contest on the heels of two consecutive losses, and Northwestern has won two in a row. IU Coach Kevin Wilson took time Monday to update the sta-

Debate Disagreement College Republicans at IU backed out of a debate against College Democrats at IU after conflict over whether one democrat would participate By Lydia Gerike lgerike@umail.iu.edu | @lydi_yeah
After a disagreement about what took place at a meeting in September, College Republicans at IU backed out of the debate between their organization and the College Democrats at IU 22 hours before the event was set to begin. The sets of notes from the September meeting between the two show a miscommunication. In certain places, the points discussed between Kegan Ferguson, Community Outreach director for the College Democrats at IU, and Brian Gamache, President of the College Republicans at IU, were almost word-for-word, including the same list of possible locations, potential debate issues and a 7 p.m. start time. There was, however, one topic that reads differently from page to page. Ferguson wrote, “Mad at Ari and don’t want him to debate, will discuss w/ board.” In contrast, Gamache marked down, “Kegan agrees Ari is not
involved in debate.” A statement released online by the College Republicans on Sunday night confirmed that they were under the impression that senior Ari Hoffman would not be debating. In the statement, the Republicans blamed this incident for the debate cancellation. “There has been a breach of trust between us,” it said. Hoffman, a debate team member and director of student events for the College Democrats, was unafraid to admit he caused a disagreement with the IUGOP but said he believes he did nothing wrong. Earlier in the election season, Hoffman said he attended an event for congressional candidate Trey Hollingsworth that was hosted by the Republicans but seemed to be open to anyone. He said he planned to ask Hollingsworth about his views on big money in politics and then record the answer, a practice he referred to as tracking. This makes sure candidates are held responsible for what they say. “It is my opinion that that practice
is a beneficial one and should be encouraged,” Hoffman said. Hoffman was not called on during the question-and-answer section, so he jumped in line when attendees were invited to talk to Hollingsworth one-on-one after the event, he said. Right before his turn to speak, however, Hoffman was asked to step into the hallway by Gamache. Thinking Gamache might want to talk about event planning, Hoffman agreed. Once outside, Hoffman said Gamache asked him to leave because the IU Republicans don’t condone tracking and didn’t want Hoffman to record the candidate. Under the law, Hoffman is allowed to record sound for any public meeting, according to the Digital Media Law Project website. Recording video and taking photos, while not explicitly addressed in the law, are generally accepted practices across the state. Despite this, Hoffman said he did not talk to Hollingsworth that night and never made a recording of any type.
Ferguson denied ever telling Gamache that Hoffman would be removed from the debate. Since Ferguson is not president of the College Democrats at IU, he said he does not have the power to make that decision. He recalled saying he would bring it up with the Democrats’ executive board, which he did. They decided Hoffman should still debate, and did not realize the IU Republicans expected anything differently until Gamache called Sunday night. “It’s a real disappointment to have them put petty political issues over policies,” Ferguson said. Hoffman and Ferguson said they believe the Republicans didn’t want to face Hoffman in the debate and used the Hollingsworth event as an excuse to cancel. One topic up for discussion was the Iran Deal. Hoffman said he is writing his senior thesis on Israeli nuclear policy, and he believes this intimidated the IU Republicans. Gamache refused to comment in addition to the IU Republicans’ statement.
Neal-Marshall Leadership Academy provides mentors By Christina Winfrey cawinfre@umail.iu.edu @tinawinfrey33
Junior Torey Andrews said she remembers wishing she had someone to help guide her through the journey of freshman year. Now she can be that helpful student for IU freshmen. Through the creation of the Neal-Marshall Leadership Academy, first-year, first-semester black students are able to have an upperclassmen or graduate student mentor to help them navigate the waters of being an IU student, said
Monica Johnson, director of the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center. The academy of about 20 students focuses on making connections among peers and finding a personal leadership style. “Freshman year is always scary,” Andrews said. “It’s good to have an upperclassman to welcome you, bring you in and show you the way.” Freshman Johnnie Allensaid he enjoys being one of the first students to participate in the program. He said he joined the academy because he intends to be-
come a leader on campus in the future. “I’ll be able to tell a lot of people that this is something they should be interested in as a freshman,” Allen said. Allen’s mentors and fellow freshmen help him on his journey to becoming a better leader. At monthly meetings, members participate in activities like leadership challenges and group games. Johnson said these activities are done to give the students real leadership experience. “We are trying to give
them a crash course in how to do that, so when it’s time, they are ready to act on it,” Johnson said. An example of these activities occurred at the academy’s second meeting. On Sunday, small groups of freshmen and their mentors were given the challenge to come up with a concept for a nonprofit organization. They had to create all the components, including a mission statement and marketing strategy, of the organization. After about 20 minutes of discussion, the groups were given a twist on the chal-
Speaker discusses rhinoceros poaching By Bailey Cline baicline@iu.edu | @baicline
Rhino poaching can be a matter of life or death for both the animals and their poachers, South African wildlife manager LD Van Essen said in his discussion Monday night. The event was hosted by School of Public and Environmental Affairs’ abroad program. “It’s a war out there,” Van Essen said. For years, poachers in South Africa have been stealing rhino horns, often injuring or killing the animal itself. Poachers also run the risk of being caught and shot on sight. Regardless of the risk, poachers believe the market
for these horns will be getting larger. Already, a rhino horn runs about $70,000 on the black market, Van Essen said. As the rhinoceros population decreases, this price may increase drastically due to rarity. Approximately 1175 recorded rhino poaches were made in 2015, Van Essen said. He showed different pictures of South African during his presentation, including graphic photos of rhinos with severed horns. “As far as seeing the graphics, they’re obviously heartbreaking to see, but that’s what opens these people’s eyes,” Salinas said. “This is actually happening.” Van Essen explained dehorning can be done in an ethical way. If all the rhinos
have their horns cut, there are no problems between the animals. “If you’ve done all of them, then there is no social disparity, and they carry on being rhinos,” Van Essen said. Removing the horns from rhinos doesn’t have to be a painful process, Van Essen said. There are ways professionals can take off these creature’s horns without harming them. Poachers aren’t concerned about this, though, and will often take off a rhino’s horn entirely. Van Essen compared this to taking off a fingernail at the nail bed. De-horning has long been a part of South African culture, where the horn is used in different rituals and foods. Nowadays, horn-
related products are considered luxuries, Van Essen said. He compared taking away this lifestyle as taking away Thanksgiving in the United States. “Who am I to tell somebody their culture is wrong?” Van Essen said. SPEA Abroad offers a summer course trip to South Africa. The class is a threecredit case study in environmental management, focusing on wildlife, patching, over-commercialization and sustainability. Van Essen led the group in the past few years and will be taking the next group as well. Kaitlin Salinas, a senior majoring in environmental

Allen said he enjoyed the added challenge because he believes it simulates a real life situation. “Sometimes you may begin with an idea, but sometimes a challenge may come and make you change what you started with,” Allen said. The freshmen are given trifecta goals, which are a set of three goals for each month. The goals for students last month were to sit in the front of the classroom, introduce themselves

IU senior named to city commission By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor
IU senior Shannon Lemajeur has a passion for law and politics. As a double major in political science and Spanish, she studies Hispanic culture and government. Lemajeur also gets to work hands-on with her interests in her new role as a commissioner on the Bloomington Commission on Hispanic and Latino Affairs. Lemajeur applied for the position and was appointed by the mayor. “It is the best opportunity for me to combine my passion for law, politics and Spanish,” Lemajeur said. “I get to use all of my strengths to help my community.” The Commission on His-
panic and Latino affairs works within the Bloomington community to advance Hispanic and Latino issues by organizing events and working to improve educational, working and economic aspects of Hispanic and Latino lives, Lemajeur said. Lemajeur herself is not Latino, but she said as president of IU’s Spanish club, she has always been interested in Spanish and wanted to expand her work with it outside of the University and into the community. Within the commission, Lemajeur will focus on the political aspect of Latino lives. She said she plans to improve voter awareness and work with Bloomington elementary and middle schools to improve civic education.
“I’m really trying to work towards promoting learning about politics and government,” Lemajeur said. “It’s so important for society.” Beyond her political focus, Lemajeur will work with the commission to address the variety of issues Hispanic and Latino people face in Bloomington. Lemajeur said while there is no single issue that affects Latinos the most, she thinks education, health and inclusion are all important issues to focus on. “It depends on each person’s situation,” Lemajeur said. “Education is one of the issues, especially for students who are only able to speak Spanish.” Lemajeur said working and health conditions for those who are undocument-
ed is also an issue in Bloomington. She said there is a fear of facing authorities and ultimately deportation. Despite the challenges Latino and Hispanic people may face, Lemajeur said she wants them to feel welcomed in the community. “It’s so important that they are not ostracized and enjoy the same resources as everyone who is not Latino,” Lemajeur said. To tackle these issues, Lemajeur will work alongside the commission which is made up of members from around the Bloomington community, including a professor, a social worker and a police officer. The professor is Israel Herrera, an IU Spanish professor who has known Lemajeur for
three years and advised her to apply for the commission. Herrera, a native of Colombia, said he has worked on the commission for five years. He said he has interest in working with human rights and education and proposing different events or activities for the Latino and Hispanic population in Bloomington. Herrera said Lemajeur will be a good addition to the commission because she has political and Spanish knowledge. “She will be a good support for organizing all these events where the political part is involved,” Herrera said. “She has also the advantage because she speaks in Spanish and she is able to provide information in Spanish to Latino and Hispanic locals.”

This first piece of the journey looks to give freshmen the tools they need to find their own specific leadership style. Johnson said she believes leadership is often talked about in general terms but the focus should be more on the individual. “The reality is the most effective leaders are leaders who learn to lead as themselves,” Johnson said. At the first meeting of the leadership academy, the students were given a form to fill out about their hopes and goals for the future. Johnson said her overall goal is for the students to be able to reflect on what they wrote down the road. “Success for me for this program would be having a student in the short term who sees themself as a sophomore in the direction that they want to be and who, as a senior, sees who they thought they would be and reconciles that with the beauty and reality of who they are,” Johnson said.

Containment levels lower city water quality From IDS Reports

Latino resources promoted By Dominick Jean drjean@indiana.edu | @Domino_Jean
The mixture of English and Spanish languages were blending together in the background as the Latino community engaged with more than 20 groups at Latino Family Night on Monday. Latino Family Night was designed to spread awareness of resources available to Latino and Hispanic communities in Bloomington. The event was at Bloomington North High School in the commons near the auditorium. The emcee of the event Choonhyun Jeon, an employee of Monroe County Community School Corporation, said the event is so important because it helps people realize just how large the Spanish-speaking portion of the community is in Monroe County. “Seventy-five languages are represented in our schools,” Jeon said. “Spanish speaking students are the largest group.” Groups such as Wonderlab, Catholic Charities, Bloomington Police and IU admissions were all in attendance to help promote their own resources and raise awareness of their programs. Olivia Wooten, an animal care expert at Wonderlab, said they were there to help promote a new exhibit that
featured both English and Spanish languages, something Wonderlab has not done before. “It’s the first time it’s been fully done,” Wooten said. Wonderlab employees brought a snake, lizards and a large cup stacking game for many of the children to play with at the event. Wooten wrapped the snake around her left arm and allowed spectators to touch and pet the snake. “It’s just a sample of all our exhibits,” Wooten said. “It attracts attention.” Wonderlab was there to promote their exhibits and provide a fun atmosphere, and Catholic Charities was there to speak about their mental health services. Alicia Hopkins, a graduate student and intern at Catholic Charities, said the organization provides therapy for all ages and even functions with Medicaid and on a self-pay scale. “You pay what you can afford,” Hopkins said. Hopkins said this is her first time at the event, and Catholic Charities’ second year, but that she thinks it is a great idea. “There’s a lot of info and a lot of support,” Hopkins said. “I think it’s awesome.” BPD officer Drew Bazan was at Latino Family Night representing the Bloomington Police Dept. He said he

was the only Latino officer at BPD to his knowledge and he thinks he provides a familiar face to people. “I’m a more approachable face,” Bazan said. “And I speak Spanish, so that helps.” Bazan and BPD had materials written in Spanish promoting gun safety, how to correctly place a car seat in a vehicle and even safety specific to Halloween. Bazan said that he thinks people know about the resources but does not know exactly how to do everything step-by-step. IU Admission also had their own table and Larry Gonzalez, a senior associate director of admissions, said this was the seventh year they had been in attendance. “I believe we’ve been
involved each and every year,” Gonzalez said. Gonzalez said that a lot of Bloomington locals are unaware of the opportunities and scholarships that are available in Bloomington. “We want to show all the wonderful opportunities available in people’s own backyard,” Gonzalez said. “It’s a win-win situation.” The event provides an environment that for Latino community members to learn about resources in a way that is less intimidating, Gonzalez said. Jeon said he was very excited by the number of groups at the event and said it shows the level of support available. “We have tremendous support from the community,” Jeon said.
Containment levels continue to be lower than the water-quality standard, according to the City of Bloomington’s monthly disinfectant byproduct test results. September’s measurement of both haloacetic acids and trihalomethanes remained comparable to the previous monthly testing’s testing, according to a City of Bloomington press release. “These results indicate that changing the point of chlorine addition, combined with our process optimization efforts, is allowing us to manage the formation of DBP,” Vic Kelson, utilities director, said in the release. “As the warm weather season comes to an end, we expect a seasonal downward trend in DBP formation.” Over the winter, Kelsen said he and the rest of the department will continue to focus on improving water quality and eliminating the operational side effects of this year’s process changes. “We’re pleased with the ongoing downward trend of these numbers,” Mayor John Hamilton said in the release. The August 2016 findings revealed the concentration of haloacetic acids at the eight testing sites ranged from 38.0 parts per billion to 45.0 parts per billion, and the trihalomethane levels were between 52.0 parts per billion and 57.3 parts per billion. In September 2016, the most recent test month, findings showed the concentration of haloacetic acids ranged from 39.0 parts per billion to 45.0 parts per billion and the trihalomethane levels were between 50.7
parts per billion and 60.4 parts per billion, according to the release. Haloacetic acids are a common undesirable byproduct of drinking water chlorination. Exposure to such disinfection in water, at high levels over many years, has been associated with a number of health outcomes. Filtration can help with decreasing levels. September’s lab report also included quarterly results that, when compared to the same period in 2015, indicate much improved levels of contamination. The level of haloacetic acids for the third quarter 2015 ranged from 52 parts per billion to 60 parts per billion while trihalomethane levels were between 84.3 parts per billion and 95.5 parts per billion. The third quarter 2016 data levels ranged from 38.6 parts per billion to 45.3 parts per billion for haloacetic acids and between 52.4 parts per billion and 59.6 parts per billion for trihalomethane, according to the release. Monthly water testing was initiated in January of this year in an effort to track water quality better, specifically DBPs. From January to September 2016 no individual sample has exceeded the maximum contaminant level. “Since we started testing more frequently and making changes in the water purification process our water quality has improved, but we will certainly continue our attention and efforts,” Hamilton said in the release. “I appreciate the hard work of our employees to get us to this point.” Alyson Malinger
Average THM levels over the years The average trihalomethane levels in the City of Bloomington’s water has varied over the years, typically being under the standard level for water-quality. In the last three months, THM levels have steadily decreased. Measured in parts per billion, 80 marks the level of water-quality standard 100

Calling out Comcast’s shady tactics A slap on the wrist isn’t enough of a penalty to a company that blatantly disregards its customers There are a few words in the English language that inspire immediate disgust. For many, the word “moist” is this disfavorable. Others find that the word “Hitler” brings to mind this disdain. However, as Americans, there’s one word that unites us all in hatred: “Comcast.” It seems strange, but it’s seemingly universal. Ask someone’s opinion on Comcast and just wait to receive their Comcast horror story. Given that Time Warner Cable also gets a lot of hate, it might seem like Comcast — and cable companies in general — are dealt the short end
of the stick. They’re easy to vilify whenever something goes wrong. This might be the motive for the wall of swastikas you see when Googling “Comcast” — seriously, Google Image search it. Jokes aside, this hatred is justified by the unsavory and downright unethical business practices that Comcast routinely participates in. The most recent example of this was last week, when the Federal Communications Commission announced that Comcast agreed to pay $2.3 million to settle an investigation.
While this doesn’t sound like much in comparison to Comcast’s annual revenue of nearly $74 billion, a settlement of this size is unprecedented for a cable provider. As for the details, Comcast was accused of charging customers for products and services that they either didn’t ask for or asked explicitly not to receive. But, ironically enough, Comcast tried to shift the blame even in settling the suit. The company explained that the problems were “just isolated errors or customer confusion.” Herein lies the biggest problem with Comcast. They
have no concern for their customers. Looking back, there are countless examples of this. One of the most notable examples is the controversy about Xfinity public Wi-Fi, where Comcast used customers’ routers as free hotspots, charging their customers for other people’s internet use. The worst part? They didn’t tell their customers their routers were being used this way. This ended with a class action lawsuit against Comcast by their customers, frustrated at the unwarranted use of their routers. While Comcast may contend it wasn’t in the wrong, there is no ar-
guing the fact thatthere was absolutely no consideration for their customers and how they may have felt about it. But of course, our society’s deep-rooted distrust of Comcast doesn’t come from these dramatic legal disputes, but from personal experience. Among the Editorial Board, a surprising number of us have had personal experience haggling with Comcast after service rates had increased, often without warning. The norm is to call in, threaten to change providers and keep pushing until they lower your rate.
This is such a common experience that there are literally tutorials online for negotiating your service rate. When this sort of negotiation is so ingrained into your business model that you’re constantly plagued by court cases, and when your customers literally associate you with the Nazis, something is wrong. So help us hold Comcast accountable for their poor customer service. Call in and tell them you want to cancel your service to switch to AT&T, because even if you don’t, chances are you’ll get a better deal.

Blaming religion as the root cause for acts of violence is illogical Regular readers of my column know I can be a harsh critic of religious people, especially of those who use their religion to oppress or discriminate against others. My critiques, however, are always with the people practicing religion and never with the abstract notion of religion itself. On Friday, after federal authorities announced they had arrested three men who planned to blow up a mosque, social media was quick to denounce religion as responsible for similar acts of violence. A meme quickly circulated, in which Bill Maher says, “When I hear from people that religion doesn’t hurt anything,
I say really? Well besides wars, the crusades, the inquisitions, 9/11, ethnic cleansing, the suppression of women, the suppression of homosexuals, fatwas, honor killings, suicide bombings, arranged marriages to minors, human sacrifice, burning witches and systematic sex with children, I have a few little quibbles.” Broad, sweeping criticisms of religion, like Maher’s, suggest one of two things to me. The first is that religion is external, meaning there exists some supernatural being, responsible for the creation of religious ideas, which obliges us to commit these heinous acts against one another. If you believe religion is ex-
ternal, designed by an intrinsically evil god who delights in our killing each other, then it makes sense to say if we rejected religion, those things wouldn’t happen. It makes sense only if religion is something objective that acts on us, which we can’t control. But you would have to believe in a god of some kind. The other possibility is that religion is internal, meaning we made it all up. All of it comes from within us. If this is the case, that means all of the murders, genocides, pedophilia, etc. are just as internal, and people are not persuaded to commit these acts by some
higher power. If this is the case, that means human beings are simply predisposed to violence — whether it’s natural, social or environmental. If religion is internal, then it’s merely a justification for the violence to which we’re predisposed. And saying these acts of violence wouldn’t exist without religion is absolutely illogical. I’m willing to wager if religion didn’t exist, we would have invented another system by which to justify our acts of violence. Like politics, for instance. There exists a city in which politics, money and religion are not “practiced.” Accord-
ing to their website, the Indian city of Auroville “belongs to no prince, to no god. Nobody owns it. This is everybody’s place. The earth will find joy in it. Hearts will be happy in it.” You would imagine a city where work is done on a volunteer basis, citizens are paid uniformly in grants, there are no leaders, and religion does not divide them would be a utopia. And, yet, the BBC reported that the city facilitates pedophilia, which, if you recall, was one of the atrocities for which Bill Maher accused religion of being responsible. Let’s also not forget the most deadly killers of recent memory — Hitler, Stalin,
THERIN SHOWALTER is a junior in media studies.
Chairman Mao, etc. — didn’t massacre millions in the name of religion. Those that do commit acts of violence under religious pretenses would find another justification if religion were banned. Though I hate to end on a cliché, I implore you not to throw the baby out with the bathwater when it comes to religion. @TherinShowalter thshowal@indiana.edu
BLABBERMOUTH
Dylan’s Nobel Prize proves popularity is rewarded over merit The songwriter pens powerful lyrics, but not literature. Last week, legendary singer-songwriter Bob Dylan became the newest recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature. The choice to award Dylan with the world’s highest literary honor was a confusing one, mostly because he does not create literature. First, some history. Generally, the Nobel prize is awarded to artists working within the traditional definition of literature — poetry, novel, short story and drama. There have been a few cases in which the prize has been awarded to philosophers or notable essayists, but Dylan is the first songwriter to receive
the award. The choice has caused a small-scale identity crisis among the literati, mostly centered on whether or not song lyrics can be considered poetry. Ultimately, the answer is no. While lyrics can certainly be analyzed as poetry, putting the two in the same category does both forms a disservice. To separate lyrics from their music removes their full mastery. Most lyrics — including Dylan’s — don’t have nearly as much impact without their accompanying melodies. Lyrics are a distant cousin of poetry, once or twice removed, but not within the immediate family of literature.
They certainly shouldn’t be within the realm of consideration for the Nobel Prize in Literature. When it comes to Bob Dylan, I can see the appeal. He’s a master of song from a period of history where music had the power to influence the world and lead revolutions. And as the newly-discovered favorite musician of every white Midwestern hipster, his work has managed to stay relevant despite his career peak in the ‘70s. But I take issue with rewarding popularity over merit. The Swedish Academy, which selects the winners for all Nobel awards, has always
prided itself on honoring forward-thinking individuals in all fields. But to award this distinguished literary prize to a popular songwriter — especially one whose status as a genius requires overlooking the last twenty years of his discography — feels like an insult to the institution of literature. It’s a massive step backwards instead of an endorsement of fresh ideas. At the end of the day, Bob Dylan hasn’t devoted his life to literature — he’s devoted his life to songwriting. Neither of these forms of expression is inherently more valuable than the other, but they each have vastly different requirements, qualities and skill sets.
To a certain extent, the lyrics-versus-poetry debate comes down to apples and oranges. The categories are similar, and in some ways appear to overlap, but in others will always remain distinctly different. Some find apples tastier, while some will argue for oranges. But would an apple win an award for “Best Orange”? Never. Neither should Dylan win an award for lifelong contributions to literature. For his work in music and songwriting, Dylan been rewarded with critical acclaim, multiple Grammys and even a Pulitzer Prize Special Citation Award — all of which were hard-earned and well-

deserved. But he didn’t deserve the Nobel Prize in Literature. If the Swedish Academy is making a move towards interpreting award criteria more loosely, so be it. There’s not much I can do apart from try to find a silver lining. If nothing else, I can start looking forward to next year’s announcement that Dr. Seuss has won the Nobel Prize in Medicine. rjdague@indiana.edu

That dual-threat capability means IU junior quarterback Zander Diamont will continue to provide the Hoosiers with a mobile look on the scout team as he did ahead of IU’s matchups against Ohio State’s J.T. Barrett and Nebraska’s Tommy Armstrong. Barrett was able to torch IU on the ground, while Armstrong struggled to find much success. Wilson used Diamont’s mobility to help prepare the Hoosier defense for a shifty quarterback last year, too, most notably in the lead up to the team’s bowl game against Duke. Injuries Wilson revealed after the loss to Nebraska that junior kicker Griffin Oakes is dealing with a quad issue. The injury is part of the reason IU hasn’t elected to attempt field goals in some instances that it didn’t hesitate to a season ago. Senior offensive lineman Dan Feeney’s status is still unclear. The 2015 All-American is doing more work every day as he recovers from his concussion, Wilson said. He didn’t elaborate. Senior offensive tackle Dimitric Camiel, junior wide

would be at best bowl, and from there you just look — it’s a long time off,” Wilson said. Wilson also said he’s impressed with the progress junior wide receiver Camion Patrick has made in his recovery from an ACL injury. Offensive Line With Feeney’s status still
unclear and Camiel’s return pegged for a potential bowl game at best, the Hoosier offensive linemen who’ve played in recent weeks will likely be the same ones that line up against a Wildcat defense that’s combined for 15 tackles for loss and 10 sacks in its last two outings. The solid play of junior
college transfer tight end Ian Thomas has helped the line, but overall there still remains room for improvement, Wilson said. “We’re just a little out of whack, and we’re talking about tightening it up, and you’ve got to play as one unit,” Wilson said. “Right now we’ve got a lot of individual

The signs cost the city $28 per sign for a total of $840. The signs were placed on light posts and were then bolted on by city workers Oct. 5. The same night signs discouraging panhandling were bolted on, Bloomington locals were meeting in Peoples Park to discuss just how to help the homeless and what they saw as the city’s discriminatory policies against transient people. Sophia Deliso, a waitress at Cafe Pizzaria, said she did not see a difference between the IU students asking for money for Riley Hospital for Children or breast cancer treatment and the homeless, except that the students are not treated badly. The signs were posted outside businesses all along Kirkwood Avenue and, according to police, were stolen from both sides of the street. Several were also stolen from the town square outside Malibu Grill. While the city is investigating the crime as a theft and vandalism, others downtown said they did not really understand why the signs were put up in the first place. Two signs were bolted on a pole outside Cafe Pizzaria on Kirkwood Avenue. Deliso said she did not understand the point of the signs and saw them as a waste of money. “I’m going to give my money where I want,” Deliso said.
Karl Tatgenhorst was also invited but never responded to the invitation. Although graduate student Sean Benolken said the debate didn’t drastically change his opinion of either candidate, he thought it was interesting to hear from both sides on their opinions of arts in government. Benolken studies Cultural Policy through SPEA. He said he is more familiar with the policies in the Chicago area but was able to compare the city’s policies to the state of Indiana. It was nice to hear the candidates use their knowledge and talk about putting what they know to practical use in Hoosiers’ day-to-day lives, Benolken said. “The arts are based off collaboration, and the workforce is evolving to become a very collaborative workforce,” Benolken said. Hale liked that the event focused on ideas, rather than the behaviors of opposing candidates, which she said is what she saw in other recent debates. She opened the debate by connecting Indiana’s policies on the arts to popular culture. When John Green’s “The Fault in Our Stars” began filming, the production staff wanted to shoot scenes in Indianapolis where the book is set. However, the plan was scrapped because Indiana has no current tax incentives for filmmakers, Hale said. As a member on the Heartland Film Festival board, Hale said she also experienced conflict between Indiana’s policies and growth of the

She said many qualified candidates refused the job, and even the man who agreed was concerned about how Indiana would treat him because he was gay. Hale also said adding culture to Indiana would help grow the economy and encourage more people to move to the state. “The arts and culture, it’s about creating a place where people would like to live,” Hale said. “There are better, smarter ways we can approach this.” In her opening statement, Crouch talked about her experiences with the arts throughout her school years. She brought that experience to the Statehouse when she authored a bill to promote music therapy. “I don’t know this for sure, but I may be the only state representative to ever sing a bill on the floor of the House,” Crouch said. “And of course my colleagues joined in by unanimously chorusing ‘Aye’ at the end.” Crouch also discussed the Regional Cities Initiative. This project picked the north central, northeast and southwest areas of the state and offered funding to develop new projects. These included renovating performance centers, adding new galleries and creating cultural education opportunities. “Arts and culture are crucial to enhancing the quality of place,” Crouch said. Instead of broadcasting the debate live, WFIU recorded the remarks and will air them on their radio station at 8 p.m. Wednesday before the final presidential debate.

Dear
PRESIDENT OBAMA, We have a lot to thank you for and would like to take a moment to do so before you end your term. Not everyone has loved you, and that’s fair. We all have differing opinions, but know that the general populous is grateful for the time we’ve shared. Thank you for being our first black president. Thank you for introducing the nation to a beautiful family that has inspired millions like yours. You’ve changed the nation. Thanks to your leadership, our country has become more accepting as a whole. Thank you for taking steps to allow anyone to marry whomever they want, regardless of sexual orientation, gender and religion. Thank you for letting love win. We acknowledge that you did your best in giving Americans affordable health care, but we also know it did not work out so well. Your intentions were noble, and you did succeed in making it mandatory. You succeeded where five other presidents did not. Oddly enough, we must apologize for some of the praise our nation has given to
you as of late. Some, including one high-profile online publication, have felt it is necessary to expressly praise the fact that you’ve not been involved in any sex scandals like some of your predecessors and contemporaries in Washington. Should this be a surprise? After all, no one bestowed this praise upon George W. Bush, even though the same could be said for him. It seems that your morality has been held to a higher standard than previous presidents. We know why, but we probably don’t have to overtly state it. Nonetheless, we certainly applaud your character, leadership and the example you’ve set for our youth. It’s even more amazing that you are coming out of this presidency as a winner, as so few many do. A few additional gray hairs here and there don’t diminish the fact that you remain as poised as you were the day you were inaugurated in 2008. We listen to you — we cling to your every word, study you for our public speaking classes. You and
your wife are superb in front of a microphone, and with your words, you have helped America through some very low points. Thank you for your leadership following heinous hate crime in Orlando against the LGBT+ community and declaring it an act of domestic terrorism. Thank you for agreeing that Black Lives Matter. At the start of it all, you boosted the morale of a nation that feared it might enter a new Depression. Yet during your presidency, America experienced immense job growth. While a good chunk of the nation will blame you for our poor economic state, there are still those of us who realize you inherited this mess. Thank you for being part of a power couple. Michelle has arguably done just as many great things for this nation. Children are eating healthier in school. They are more active and physically engaged. The fight against obesity is not one that one woman can tackle by herself, but, Michelle, you have done a fantastic job.
Obama, you are our first president to serve during the age of social media. You have handled it gracefully and have used it to your advantage. You know America loves a good meme. You are perhaps our first example of what a public servant should look like. Thanks for seeing us through the harrowing ages of middle school, high school and college. You’ve shown us qualities of accountability, honesty and perseverance — the things we strive for when entering into adulthood. Finally, we would like to thank you for not putting your trust in a man as deplorable as Donald Trump. Thank you for not encouraging us to support someone who does not respect women, citizens of color and the LGBT+ community. We don’t have time to complain that you’re leaving. We have to press on and hope our next president leads us into an even brighter future. Peace out, Obama. You truly make one chill president.
With love,

Third time’s the charm with old and new haunts in “Venice of the North” I did the one thing I said I wouldn’t do during my study abroad this weekend: visit somewhere I had already been. I broke this self-imposed rule easily and with little guilt, mainly because of how beautiful I knew the destination was. Bruges, Belgium, is straight out of a fairy tale, and spending just one day there is enough to enchant you. This past weekend was my third time in the city, but I’ve been no less excited on the return trips than on my first visit. Bruges is one of a few European cities called the “Venice of the North” for its picturesque canals winding through the medieval streets and beautiful bridges spanning them. The ancient history of the city is apparent everywhere, from Sint-Janshospitaal, built in the 11th century and now turned into a eye-opening and slightly creepy museum on medieval healthcare, to the 366-step Belfry, which towers over the main square and which I have now climbed twice. Bruges showed off the best Belgium has to offer, with chocolatiers, lace-makers, waffle stands and beer
gardens lining the streets and giving you a taste of some of the best products in Europe. If last weekend was my wine adventure, this weekend was certainly my beer adventure, and there’s a reason why some of the world’s most popular beers come from Belgium. Our Belgian adventure didn’t stop in Bruges, however. We also explored Ghent, one of the largest cities in the country. It had an young, urban atmosphere, while also proudly showing off its history in the city center. The architecture was more mixed, with modern styles alongside the traditional Flemish style that was everywhere in Bruges. I loved the feeling of walking around a city that was both lively and entrenched in history. We walked around Sunday morning finding street art. It was amazing to look to your right and see colorful, intricate graffiti and artwork then look to your left and see a crumbling Gothic church. While we were lost trying to decipher the Dutch spoken around us the majority of the time, we were happily surprised to meet many

friendly people ready to give us a beer recommendation or ask us about life in the United States. On a side note, I can’t wait until Nov. 9 when the election is over and I can finally be free of the constant questions about politics. I swear Europeans can sniff out the Americans in the vicinity just to give them a hard time about Clinton and Trump. Minor annoyances aside, a weekend in Belgium was just what I needed to get a little break from France without going too far. I love watching all the Dutch men and women zipping around on their bikes, the brightly colored houses and triangle shaped roofs, and hearing so many languages around me all the time, not to mention the cheap beer practically flowing down the river. It was an unpretentious, unhurried and unexpectedly jam-packed weekend that made me want to come back for a fourth visit to Belgium as soon as possible.

Penis size not correlated to quality of sex, enlargement not a safe option I’m 20 but my dick is, like, 5 inches when erect. It’s thick enough, but it looks small to me. ls my penis size OK? Can you give me tips for increasing my size? Although some surgeons will perform penis enlargement surgeries, they are not generally regarded as “safe and effective” by most major medical organizations.
Further, at 5 inches long, you are about average length and most doctors probably wouldn’t recommend attempting a potentially risky surgery on a nice, healthy penis. After all, some men experience scar tissue or painful erections after such surgeries. I’m guessing you want to increase your penis size because you worry that penis size is somehow connected
to good sex. As it turns out, several research studies have looked at this issue and have found time and again that penis size is not that important to most people. More often, what makes for good sex is communication, closeness and a sense of connection. Intimacy will get you a lot further in bed than another inch or two. How do you create inti-
macy then? Try getting to know people you’re interested in romantically and sexually. It’s fine to start with basic questions like where someone is from or whether they’re from a small or large family. However, make sure not to avoid the questions that make you feel vulnerable and close, questions about what you want out of life or how you each got
through difficult times in life. When you’re actually having sex together, try looking in your partner’s eyes. Keeping a little light on, like a lamp in the corner of the room, will make this easier. Check out books like “Great in Bed,” “She Comes First” and “The New Male Sexuality” for tips on creating more satisfying, pleasurable sex for both you and
your partner. Kinsey Confidential is a collaboration of the IU School of Public Health and The Kinsey Institute.

Author writes book on disappearance of local artist From IDS Reports
The ’80s punk rock scene in Bloomington allowed for the popularity of a variety of figures, though one star’s disappearance remains unsolved to this day. Author David Agranoff, who called Bloomington home during the era of punk rock, has now written
a novel based on the disappearance of vocalist Frank Huff and the mysteries of the punk rock scene of that era, according to a release from the author. The novel, a blending of fiction and fact, was released alongside a 21-minute documentary made by Agranoff on the same topic in early October.
“In the early days of punk rock in Indiana, several pioneering bands popped up in Bloomington and the north side of Indy, but the first band from Greenwood on the south side was a band called The F*ckers,” Agranoff said in the release. “They were trailblazers, and like a shooting star they were gone as fast as
they came.” Huff vanished after a whirlwind tour that took the group through the East Coast and the South. During the tour the band had to steal food and gas to survive as they played small venues. Agranoff said in the release he met the drummer of the group, who was also accused of Huff ’s murder
after the disappearance. According to the release, The F*ckers released one 7-inch record with handprinted, folded covers and five songs. This 7-inch is now one of the most valuable records next to the Zero Boys’ “Livin’ in the 80’s.” This work was inspired by a period of time Agranoff still reflects on and was 25
years in the making, according to the release. “The record was classic early hardcore and kept the spirit alive,” Agranoff said in the release. “Growing up punk in Indiana, the mystery of what happened to Frank was something we always talked about.” Sanya Ali

Those interested in delving into the natural world of southern Indiana will have the opportunity to hear from an expert this week. Steven Higgs, the author of “A Guide to Natural Areas of Southern Indiana,” and an adjunct lecturer at IU, will speak at 7 p.m. Thursday in the Wylie House Museum’s Education Center, according to a press release from the museum. Higgs’ book, published by IU Press in April, is the first comprehensive and completely illustrated work for those interested in any type of exploration across Indi-
ana’s southern region, according to the release. According to the press release, Higgs unifies the distinct natural characteristics with the history of sites covered in the book, and shares stories about exploring Indiana. The book outlines which places would be best suited for certain activities, including bird- and game-watching, fishing, and hiking. Higgs is also an awardwinning environmental writer and photographer and the author of another work titled “Eternal Vigilance: Nine Tales of Environmental Heroism in Indiana,” which was published
in 1995 and revolves around citizen activism in cases of environmental peril. This more recent “A Guide to Natural Areas of Southern Indiana” has gained the attention of another author, Johnny Molloy, the author of “Top Trails Great Smoky Mountains National Park,” in the field of nature writing. “I cannot imagine the amount of time that went into exploring all these places,” Molloy said in the release. “Anyone with a general interest in the outdoors, including hikers, birders, campers and fishermen, will find this book useful.” Sanya Ali

SWIMMING AND DIVING
IU men’s team aims for top-5 finish this year By Ben Portnoy bportnoy15@gmail.com | @bportnoy15
IU Coach Ray Looze said he wants the men’s swimming and diving team to improve its national ranking and compete for the Big Ten title this year. IU, which finished last season ninth in the final CSCAA Coaches Poll with a secondplace finish in the Big Ten and ninth-place finish at the NCAA championships, expects everyone to improve. “Nobody needs to wave a magic wand and do something substantially better than they’ve ever been,” Looze said. “If everybody just gets better, we get some contribution from our freshmen, transfers, then I think we’ll have a successful year.” IU will be getting some major reinforcements in the diving department from senior Michael Hixon, a silver medalist in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, and junior James Connor. Hixon and Connor took Olympic redshirt years. Diving coach Dave Johansen said the entire team is excited to be competing together again and believes they are as good as any team out there. Hixon said he had similar sentiments coming off his Olympic appearance. “It’s a lot of fun being back with the team, training with

the team and having common goals together,” Hixon said. “It was a great for the experience, but I’m really excited for this, too.” Another Hoosier to watch on the diving side is senior Josh Arndt. Arndt’s coming off a career year in which he placed fourth in the 3-meterdive at the NCAA Championships, won the 3-meter-dive
three times in dual meets and was recognized as an AllAmerican in the event. Hixon said it was awesome to see Arndt have his breakout year last year and definitely expects big things from him as the season progresses. From a swimming perspective, the Hoosiers, led by veteran juniors Blake Pieroni and Ali Khalafalla and senior
Anze Tavcar, will also be deep. Pieroni, a gold medalist at the Olympics in the 4x100 freestyle relay and five-time All-American at the NCAA Championships last year, said first and foremost he wants the team to win a Big Ten title, while he defends his conference titles in the 100- and 200yard freestyle and the 400yard freestyle relay.

L’Hommedieu shines as IU’s freshman goalie By Cameron Drummond cpdrummo@iu.edu | @cdrummond97
Several of the 11 true freshmen on this season’s IU roster have contributed significantly to the team’s resurgence on the field, but one freshman in particular has stood out. Freshman goalkeeper Sarah L’Hommedieu has starred in net for the Hoosiers this season and started 16 of the team’s 17 matches. In total, L’Hommedieu has been in goal for more than 1,500 minutes this season for IU. She has credited this high amount of playing time with helping her adjust to her first season playing college soccer. “Obviously, as a freshman, you are not used to playing with some of the people that you have in front of you,” L’Hommedieu said. “Getting to know the way that people play, their strengths and how I can fit into that equation helps me become more comfortable playing with them.” L’Hommedieu’s confidence has grown as the season has progressed, and it did not take her long to make an impression. In IU’s first win of the year at Butler, L’Hommedieu recorded a career-high eight saves for her first career shutout. L’Hommedieu has reached the eight-save mark on two other occasions this season, but the initial performance against the Bulldogs signaled to her she was ready to be the starter. “The Butler game was our defensive breakthrough,” L’Hommedieu said. “We discovered that we are really good as a group back there.” Just two days after the Butler match, the Hudson, Ohio, native shut out Northern Colorado, 3-0, at Bill Armstrong Stadium. The weekend display earned L’Hommedieu two weekly honors from the Big Ten as the conference’s Defensive Player of the Week and Freshman Player of the Week. The Freshman Player of the Week award was given to L’Homemdieu for a second time Oct. 11 after she made a combined 15 saves against No. 16 Penn State and Rutgers. The Hoosiers were able to claim a point apiece from their matches against the

Nittany Lions and Scarlet Knights, two teams that made the Final Four of last season’s NCAA Tournament. L’Hommedieu playing a significant role in both games. “The coaching staff and the rest of the team has full confidence in Sarah,” IU Coach Amy Berbary said. “You can just see her getting better every week. She trains so hard, and I give a lot of credit to my assistant Sergio Gonzalez. He is always pushing her and has helped get her to where she is.” Gonzalez is praised by not only Berbary but also L’Hommedieu when it comes to his affect on her play this season. Gonzalez was a big factor in L’Hommedieu’s decision to enroll at IU a semester early in spring 2016. L’Hommedieu said she was very skeptical about arriving on campus early and forgoing the final part of her senior year of high school but placed a great deal of trust in Gonzalez. “I talked to Sergio a lot, and he has a record of training excellent goalkeepers,” L’Hommedieu said. “I thought that if he thought I needed to come early, that’s what I had to do. It’s about trusting the coaches, and obviously it’s paid off for me, like he said it would.” L’Hommedieu’s 79 saves this season lead all Big Ten goalies and has her tied for the 37th-most saves nationally. Her 0.775 save percentage lags behind the majority of conference goalkeepers but is largely a product of the high number of shots she has faced this season. However, like her fellow freshmen, she tries to focus on the future and approach every day the right way instead of dwelling on stats or past results. “Every day is a new joy for us freshmen,” L’Hommedieu said. “We are just happy to be playing for IU and happy to be representing our school.”
Khalafalla and Tavcar, who competed for the Egyptian and Slovenian Olympic teams respectively, will help anchor the swimming contingent of IU’s team, particularly in freestyle and backstroke events. If last year was any indication, Khalafalla in particular will look to be a huge complement to Pieroni in the freestyle events as he earned
four All-American honors at the NCAA Championships. Three of those were in freestyle events, and the fourth was as the freestyle leg of the 200-yard medley relay. Khalafalla also broke the IU record for the 50-yard freestyle event seven times last season. “We’ve got a veteran men’s team,” Looze said. “I think we can challenge for a conference title ... And then I’d like to see our national ranking go someplace it hasn’t gone in 40-some-odd years, which would be a top-five finish.” IU men’s swimming and diving team has not finished in the top five nationally since 1977. IU finished fourth at the NCAA championships that season when legendary coaches Hobie Billingsley and Doc Counsilman roamed the pool deck in Bloomington. However, this year’s team seems poised for a run at not only a Big Ten championship but a national title as well. “It would be nice to do things that we haven’t done in a long time here at Indiana,” Looze said. “Ninth was nice, but, man, top-five would be really cool.” IU will open its season Saturday at the Counsilman Billingsley Aquatic Center against Texas, the defending national champion, and Florida, which placed fifth at the NCAA championship last year.
We should have seen IU’s offensive woes coming Expectations are dangerous. For years, the IU offense under IU Coach Kevin Wilson was one of the best in the nation, and we have come to expect that success to continue on without any issues. But, those pinball numbers have vanished into thin air this season. Last year’s offense averaged 36.54 points per game, while this year’s team is averaging 25.83 points per game. That’s a steep decline. Maybe this was to be expected after the Hoosiers lost some of their best offensive talent to the NFL and injury. Nate Sudfeld was arguably one of the best quarterbacks in IU history and owns many program records. Offensive lineman Jason Spriggs was a highly sought after NFL prospect, and running back Jordan Howard is succeeding at the highest level. Even top college programs struggle to reload after such great talent leaves.
After the loss to Nebraska, IU Coach Kevin Wilson was willing to acknowledge the truth of this offense. “Your quarterback is gone, your running back is going to leave,” Wilson said. “So you’re kind of in a real reloading mode at Indiana, and you’re going toe-to-toe with some top-10 teams. To me, that’s no BS, but this team is gaining on them and we’re going to keep gaining on them. The ultimate gain is victories, and that means that’s where the offense has to come through.” The excuses may be warranted. Early on this season, the offense suffered multiple injuries to key guys. The two offensive players Wilson brought to Big Ten Media Days — senior offensive linemen Dimitric Camiel and Dan Feeney — have been on the sidelines the past four games and its unclear when either will be back. It’s not that IU doesn’t
have depth, but the cascading effects of these injuries are hurting its offense. Feeney is one of the nation’s best guards. The running game evaporates without him. The offense also lost junior wide receiver Simmie Cobbs Jr. and tight end Jordan Fuchs to likely season-ending injuries in the first two games of the season. The red zone woes that have plagued this offense could have been remedied by this duo’s size. But even with this amount of injuries, the offense is close to breaking through. “The word we have been using is inches,” senior wide receiver Mitchell Paige said. “Just because, like, we are getting a holding penalty and if we were an inch or two over, he’d be in the right spot and he’d be able to get around him. Just an inch or two short on whatever pass plays or getting to different cuts. Got to find a way, and it comes with preparation throughout the week, just to get those few

extra inches in the games.” With so many players gone from last year’s highpowered unit, the margin for error has shrunk. The little things add up and make a difference. A few plays go differently for this offense and the Hoosiers might be 6-0. The expectations for this offense have changed — instead of carrying the load of the team, the offense just has to break through and grind out drives. The differences are small and the offense doesn’t need to light up the scoreboard anymore to win. It just needs to score on more possession per game. It doesn’t have to be a great offense, it simply has to be a few points better. That’s the new reality for IU. aphussey@indiana.edu @thehussnetwork

MEN’S SOCCER
Lillard’s health a key factor down the stretch By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali
Defense has been the key for IU men’s soccer throughout the entire season. It’s a large reason why the Hoosiers are currently second in the Big Ten table. The defense has allowed just 12 goals in 14 matches this year, and senior goalkeeper Colin Webb has shut out opponents in half of those games, However, IU has been able to play particularly well without its main cog in the middle of its backline. That would be junior center back Grant Lillard. Lillard has missed three games this season, two due to a stomach virus illness keeping him out of the lineup against IUPUI and Rutgers and the other against Maryland because of his first-ever red card against Stanford in the match before. Now he said he feels like he’s back and figures to play a major role for the Hoosiers down the stretch heading into the postseason. “It’s been tough for me this year just because I’ve been kind of unlucky with a lot of things,” Lillard said. “I feel like I’ve finally gotten in a rhythm back to playing. My fitness is back, which is great.” The 6-foot-4 junior defender was tabbed with multiple preseason awards, including a first team All-America selection and named best defender in the nation from

a coaches’ poll conducted from topdrawersoccer.com. Lillard netted five goals and one assist in his freshman season in Bloomington and then proceeded to follow that performance with four goals and five assists as a sophomore. He’s started in every game that he’s played in during his IU career but has only found the back of the net twice in his junior year with no helpers to show for. “It was tough because I got fit and then was out for a little bit and lost it a little bit,

but I’m finally back, and I feel good again,” Lillard said. “It’s nice to get back in playing shape.” Lillard is still performing well when he’s healthy and in the lineup. As a freshman, 25 percent of his shots resulted in goals, and 21 percent found the back of the net in his sophomore year. He averaged just over 19 shots in his first two seasons combined. In limited time this season, Lillard continues to convert his shots a 25-percent clip with two goals on eight total shots in 2016.

That mark currently ties the preseason all-American for third with Ohio State’s Austin Bergstrom among defenders in the Big Ten, while Maryland’s Alex Crognale leads the field with a near 29 percent success rate. After attempting five shots in the first two games of the season, it wasn’t until after his illness against Butler on Sept. 28 that Lillard got back into the shot column. Since the meeting against the Bulldogs, the defender has recorded three shots in the past five games with one goal to

show for. While it’s evident that Lillard remains in the elite category when discussing defenders in the Big Ten, it’s his size that can be a major factor during a match. He put his height on display Oct. 11 against No. 4 Louisville and scored the opening goal in IU’s 2-1 road victory. In the 12th minute, Lillard was able to receive a high cross from sophomore midfielder Jeremiah Gutjahr to head it home at the back post past the Louisville keeper. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Today is an 8 — Seek out innovative solutions. Avoid time-sucking arguments; bring your social skills and graciousness to bear.

Clean, sort and organize. Do laundry. Take time to hang out with family and friends. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8 — Pull together with your team over the next two
IU Coach Todd Yeagley said that they always feel they have a height advantage on offense when the 6-foot-4 Lillard is on the pitch. It’s not just Lillard contributing on the offense end with his height, however. He’s also getting it done on the defensive end. It’s the unit as a whole that Yeagley praises. “They don’t get rattled when the game isn’t going great,” Yeagley said about his defense. “If we’re not in a good flow for 20 minutes, it’s alright. Let’s let our defending solve it, and then we find a way back to win the game.” Lillard said that the confidence and communication that the defensive unit has with one another is an important part of the team. While Lillard missed some time early in the season, it was the unit as a whole that was able to step up and not lose a game without their preseason all-American center back. Now that Lillard is back and finally feels fit once again, there’s no reason to think that he can’t become the player he once was for the Hoosiers on its backline. “We’re confident with our lines in defending and communication,” Lillard said. “(Derek) Creviston is great with communicating, and our outside backs are wonderful with one-on-one situations. We don’t panic, we know what to do, and it’s worked out well.” days. Moderate a disagreement. Resolve for mutual benefit. Reassure someone. Ideas spark in conversation. Make a brilliant move.
