IUPD makes drug arrests From IDS reports
The IU Police Department made two arrests Friday following a four and a half month narcotics investigation. The two men arrested, Anthony Phillip Devin Smith and Riley Carmichael Fettig, allegedly sold drugs to students in various parking lots on campus, IUPD Sgt. Becky Schmuhl said. Both arrested men are 20 years old and are not IU students, according to an IUPD statement. Schmuhl said the department originally became aware of the drug activity after receiving a tip from a confidential informant. Schmuhl said an undercover officer with the IUPD then purchased drugs from Smith and Fettig. Officers first tried to arrest the suspects at 12:55 p.m. Friday near 10th Street and Indiana Avenue, but Smith fled from officers in a silver Honda, according to the statement. The officers followed the car for a short distance south-bound on Indiana Avenue before discontinuing the pursuit due to “dangerous conditions,” according to the statement. No one was injured in the pursuit, and the officers later arrested the two men at 2:40 p.m. in their residence at West 17th Street. Smith was charged with four counts of dealing marijuana, two counts of dealing cocaine, two counts of dealing a schedule I controlled substance, one count of maintaining a common nuisance, one count of resisting law enforcement with a vehicle, one count of possession of cocaine and one count of possession of paraphernalia. Fettig was charged with one count of maintaining a common nuisance, one count of dealing marijuana and one count of resisting law enforcement. Initial hearings have not yet been scheduled for Smith and Fettig, Schmuhl said. Carley Lanich
Arrest, charges for ax attacker From IDS reports
On Monday, Sept. 21, Lee Wilbur was arrested by detectives from the Monroe County Sheriff ’s office on charges of attempted murder, a level 1 felony, according to a press release issued from the Sheriff ’s office Tuesday. The arrest follows an investigation of an attack that took place Sept. 8, when officers from the Sheriff ’s office were called about a man reportedly bleeding from the head on the 2600 block of North Mt. Gilead Road. Though the man was not there when they arrived at the scene, officers soon found his address and identified him as Jason Grubb, 41. Grubb was taken to IU Health Bloomington Hospital where he was treated for a large laceration to the head and a fractured skull. After interviewing Grubb and witnesses, detectives concluded that Lee Wilbur, 33, had been “disputing with Grub over a female acquaintance and that Mr. Wilbur had made threats to kill Mr. Grubb,” according to the release. Witnesses said Wilbur struck Grubb in the head with an ax handle before fleeing the scene on a motorcycle. Wilbur is currently being held in the Monroe County Correctional Center. Annie Garau

Faces of recovery Students in Recovery-Bloomington kicks off National Recovery Month By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma
Jackie Daniels became addicted to alcohol and drugs during her freshman year at IU. Since then, she has battled her addiction and has been in recovery since December of 2000. Now, as OASIS director, Daniels is helping students battle their own addictions. Daniels shared the story of her addiction and recovery Tuesday night in the Indiana Memorial Union’s Whittenberger Auditorium as part of OASIS’ kickoff of National Recovery Month. Daniels said the kickoff was meant to celebrate National Recovery Month, a national observance of mental health and addiction recovery awareness, but was also
meant to expose services available to students struggling with addiction or recovery, including a new student group, Students in Recovery-Bloomington. After viewing the documentary “The Anonymous People,” which educates viewers about the more than 23 million Americans living in long-term recovery from addiction to alcohol and other drugs, attendees listened to Tara Conner, Miss USA 2006; IU graduate Kristen Martin; IU student Jacob Desmond; and Daniels. All of the speakers shared stories about their addictions and recoveries. Conner said she became an advocate for addiction recovery after she was publicly scorned for struggling with addiction. “I had so many people saying to me, ‘Well, do you think you’ve tarnished the
crown?’” she said. “And I just remember having that feeling ... that, ‘Holy crap, someone’s listening to this right now and you’re shaming them, you’re shaming them for being able to step forward and get the gift (of recovery) that I was just given.’” Martin started drinking and using drugs at the age of 11 and has been in recovery since the age of 21. Martin said she felt lost when she looked for help. “No one I knew was sober,” she said. “I just thought you lived this way and you die this way ... And no one knew where to send me or what to do with me.” Martin and Desmond assisted Daniels in forming Students in RecoveryBloomington last semester. SEE RECOVERY, PAGE 6
Event at The Venue features therapy in art By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13
The Venue Fine Arts & Gift’s Tuesday evening events offer a variety of perspectives each week. Community members ranging from artists to scholars come in to share their points of view on creativity or art and its role in their lives. This Tuesday’s event took on a more personal tone than the traditional narrative. Instead of the structured lecture with chairs facing the front, the intimate group present for this talk gathered around a small table for an open discussion. Carmen Levasseur, manager of social work services at Milestones Clinical & Health Resources, led the discussion and highlighted the use of art as therapy in her work. Michelle Martin-Colman, mother of gallery owner Gabriel Colman, said the healing power of art was the focus of the evening. She said they hoped to bring awareness to the issues related to mental health during September, National Suicide Prevention Month. “What art does when you get down to the actual creation level is it gives the person doing it the opportunity, not to just look at it, but to go through the process of creating it,” Martin-Colman said. “Because of that, you end up healing. We need more of that.” Levasseur began the brief lecture portion of the event by saying she is not a formal art therapist, though she commonly employs art as a means to help her clients as she has personal experience healing

IUB receives 2015 award for diversity By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@indiana.edu
IU-Bloomington and IUPurdue University Indianapolis received the 2015 Higher Education Excellence in Diversity Award by Insight into Diversity magazine. Selected colleges and universities will be recognized in the November 2015 issue of Insight into Diversity. Insight into Diversity gives the HEED award to colleges and universities that show a commitment to diversity and inclusion. Elizabeth Blevins, assistant vice president for marketing and communications at IU-Bloomington’s Office of Diversity, Equity and Multicultural Affairs, said diversity has many forms. “Diversity is not just race and ethnicity,” Blevins said. “There are so many types of diversity on campus. The definition is very broad.” IU-Bloomington applied for and won the award for the first time this year. IUBloomington was specifically recognized for many of its programs that work toward diversity and inclusion. Such programs include the Groups Scholars program, the Hudson and Holland Scholars program, 21st Century Scholars program, and the campus mentoring and tutoring programs. Martin McCrory, associate vice president for DEMA, said the tutoring programs at IU-Bloomington received copious recognition. DEMA has tutoring programs set up in all cultural centers, academic units and each residential neighborhood. “We have students who are willing to learn and students and faculty who are willing to help learn, to mentor students, to spend extra time,” McCrory said. McCrory said another large initiative that impressed Insight into Diversity’s president was DEMA’s overseas programs. These programs give low-income students opportunities to study abroad and see the world. McCrory said it is important for students to be able to travel abroad. “Students have to learn
about the world,” McCrory said. “It’s not like what we see on TV, not even close. It also makes them more competitive in terms of graduate education and jobs in the job market.” McCrory said receiving the award means IU-Bloomington is on the right track. “This means that we have to recognize this award and then do more, at least for me,” McCrory said. “It means that we have a strong foundation, but now we need to build on that foundation.” James Wimbush, vice president for DEMA, said IU-Bloomington can still improve. “Receipt of the HEED award is confirmation that our efforts are working thus far,” Wimbush said. “However, we need to continue to improve and evaluate our efforts to ensure that we are making consistent gains and achieving progress for years to come.” Both McCrory and Wimbush said the University would not have received the award without the help of the administration, faculty and students. “It was the product of the effort of many people and the culmination of work in diversity being accomplished throughout several units across the campus,” Wimbush said. “We could not have accomplished this without their great work and the support of President McRobbie and Provost Robel.” McCrory said diversity and inclusion are everyone’s issues and the campus reflects that. “The campus continues to step up more and more,” McCrory said. “I want IU to become the Midwestern beacon for diversity and inclusion.” McCrory said students played an important role in winning the award as well, especially in tutoring and mentoring and talking to DEMA about where diversity can improve. “If the students didn’t want (diversity) to happen, it wouldn’t happen,” McCrory said. “I do want to thank the students for this award. It’s theirs, too.”

IU Arts and Humanities Council meets By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@indiana.edu
As faculty walked into the Lincoln Room of the Lilly Library, they were greeted by Edward Comentale, associate vice provost for arts and humanities, and Jonathan Elmer, director of the College Arts and Humanities Institute. Comentale and Elmer led the discussion Tuesday at the Arts and Humanities Town Hall meeting. Comentale began the meeting by explaining the Arts and Humanities Council and its goals and plans for the year. The Arts and Humanities Council is a campus-wide council that was worked into the Bicentennial Strategic Plan, approved last December. The council is devoted to making students passionate about the arts and humanities. “Our goal is really to think big, think big,” Comentale said. “The provost told us that again and again, and we’re trying to figure out how to make arts and humanities experiences ... nourishing arts and humanities experiences ... available to all students.” Comentale discussed the guiding principles of the council. The principles include making the case for residency, harnessing student passions and interests,
facilitating dynamic exchanges, instilling values of arts and humanities, and utilizing complete environmental and regional features. He said the goals of the council are reshaping and energizing everyday campus life, producing lifelong advocates of arts and humanities and putting IU on the map as a brilliant cultural hub. Comentale emphasized the need to focus on getting students’ ideas regarding the arts and humanities. “We’re trying to bring students into the programming process,” Comentale said. “We’re trying to figure out what their interests are. We’re asking for their help in promoting the arts and humanities. And really, honestly, we’re trying to tap their energy, their kind of grassroots student energy in spreading the word.” Comentale went on to discuss how the arts and humanities can utilize the entire campus. “We’re devising ways in trying to utilize the whole campus, dissolving boundaries between the inside and outside,” Comentale said. “And also, effectively using outdoor spaces and thinking about the region at large as a kind of laboratory for arts and humanities work and experience.” Comentale also discussed the four areas of focus for the

Arts and Humanities Council. These areas include publicity, campus programming, curriculum and faculty research. Within each of these four areas, the council has come up with different initiatives that will build on the areas. These initiatives include programs such as monthly public broadcasts, interactive campus maps, an Arts and Humanities Fair, an Arts and Humanities Certificate, and faculty research groups. “The idea of the council is to make communications possible that have proven to be quite difficult over the years,” Elmer said. “The council is designed to be a kind of resonating chamber for these ideas.” Comentale then opened
up the floor for discussion. Attendees discussed topics such as how the research programs fit in with the Grand Challenges and Emerging Areas, how flexible the funding is for research and what the new research laboratory initiatives mean for faculty and the arts and humanities. Many attendees raised questions about the new research laboratory initiatives. Comentale said these laboratories are a way to facilitate team-based projects as well as leave room for individual projects. “It would be a group effort,” Comentale said. “It would be collaborative. And yet, there’s plenty of room for individuals to still do their work.”
Late journalism alumnus to be honored with award From IDS reports
The late Michel du Cille, IU journalism alumnus, will be honored with the University’s Thomas Hart Benton Medallion at the Media School’s Distinguished Alumni Award in Journalism celebration Friday, according to an IU press release. Du Cille died Dec. 11, 2014, of an apparent heart attack at the age of 58 while he was in Liberia on an assignment for the Washington Post. The Benton Medallion is awarded to at least one individual every year since 1986, according to the release.
The Benton Medallion honors those who have given outstanding service Michel du and support Cille to the University and who epitomize the values of the University and the international academic community as a whole, according to the release. IU President Michael McRobbie will present the medal to du Cille’s wife, Nikki Kahn, during a banquet in Presidents Hall, located in Franklin Hall, the future home of the Media School. Kahn is currently a
photojournalist for the Washington Post. “Michel du Cille’s work is an outstanding example of the good that can come from focusing on communication in visual form,” James Shanahan, dean of the Media School, said in the release. “We’re delighted that we have this opportunity to recognize his work, tempered by the sadness that very many in this school will be missing a valued friend and colleague.” Du Cille graduated from IU in 1985. Following graduation, he went to work as a photojournalist for the Miami Herald and the Post. He won his first Pulitzer Prize at
the Herald, sharing the spot news photography prize for coverage of the 1985 eruption of a Colombian volcano. His second Pulitzer, also won while at the Herald, was for his photo essay of crack addicts in a Miami housing project, according to the release. In 1988, du Cille joined the Washington Post as picture editor, and he eventually became head of the Post’s photojournalism staff. With the assistance of du Cille, the paper won the Pulitzer Prize for public service in 2008 for coverage of the treatment of wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
Du Cille worked on the series with reporters Dana Priest and Anne Hull. Their stories led to changes in the government’s care of injured veterans, according to the release. Prior to his death, du Cille kept in regular correspondence with IU faculty and staff. There were plans for du Cille to return to Bloomington as a guest speaker in IU journalism professor of practice Tom French’s J360: Behind the Prize class last spring. Du Cille was a member of the former IU School of Journalism’s first class of distinguished alumni in 2011, according to the release.
Multiple IU journalism faculty and alumni traveled to Washington, D.C., in January to pay tribute to du Cille during a celebration of his life that took place at the Newseum. Six other alumni, including award-winning news reporters, producers, photographers and educators, will be honored as distinguished alumni in journalism at the event, according to the release. The evening will begin with a reception, followed by dinner and presentation of the awards, which will include video tributes to the honorees’ careers. Alyson Malinger

Proposal would give undocumented high school students in-state tuition From IDS reports
A forthcoming proposal in the Indiana General Assembly would allow undocumented students who graduate from Indiana high schools to pay in-state tuition at some colleges and universities. According to an Indiana Democratic Party press release, the proposal will help students who have been students in the Indiana system for many years to further their education. “It was difficult to see my friends make their college choice and to know I didn’t have options,” said Beatriz Preciado, a representative of
the Indiana Undocumented Youth Alliance, in a press release. “In-state tuition would help me finish my physics and mechanical engineering major and be able to contribute to Indiana’s economy because Indiana has been home for 15 years.” The proposed program would allow students who have attended a high school in Indiana for at least three years and graduated or received a GED to enroll in state educational institutions at the resident tuition rate, according to the press release. The proposal, to be written by Sen. Earline Rogers, D-Gary, is one of several
initiatives released by Senate Democrats. The initiatives address Latino’s access to education and healthcare, as well as public safety, according to their press release. The proposals come from a group of Latino community leaders formed by Senate Democrats in 2013. The population of undocumented immigrants in Indiana is decreasing, according to Pew Research Center, and unauthorized immigrants made up 1.3 percent of the state’s population, or 85,000 people, according to a 2012 Pew Hispanic Center report.

Maria Del Mar Carrasquillo discusses voting in the Latino community at the La Casa Commission on Tuesday evening.
Commission calls for more communication By Lyndsay Jones jonesly@indiana.edu | @lyndsayjonesy
Members of the Commission on Hispanic and Latino Affairs emphasized the importance of communication to forming community at the public conversation Tuesday night. Commission members gathered at La Casa Latino Cultural Center, where they circled chairs and set out churros. The commissioners said they hoped to have a forum with the Latino community so they might hear directly what the community’s needs were and plan their future projects based on what they heard. But the meeting was smaller than they might have hoped. Freshman Angelica Navarro was one of only a handful of people present not on the commission. Navarro said she came to the meeting because she was interested in social justice. “I feel like breaking down cultural barriers,” Navarro said. Navarro told the commission she wanted to know more about voting, since she had just turned 18. Commissioner Maria Carrasquillo smiled. After answering a couple of questions regarding
Navarro and voting, she began talking about what the commission was doing to educate the Latino community on local and federal government issues. “We’ve been talking about ensuring the community knows what their government does, since it’s different in other countries,” Carrasquillo said. The demographics of the commissioners demonstrated her point: members hailed from Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Colombia. Ruben Marté, the commission’s vice president, said even though the community and commissioners often represent significant diversity, there is one thing that unites them. “What we all have in common is our language,” Marté said. United on that front, the commission seeks to serve the greater Bloomington community by focusing and working on their own. Government is not the only focus. The commission often focuses on a selection of key issues and has subcommittees dedicated to them. Currently, the commission is working on knowledge of government, access to voting and domestic violence.
Carrasquillo encouraged more community participation to allow the commission to best serve its community. “We aren’t able to be the voice if you aren’t to us,” Carrasquillo said. Since she came to Bloomington several years ago, she said she has noticed “pockets” of Latino communities within Bloomington. “There’s no communication between them,” Carrasquillo said. That is part of what the commission is trying to change. Sophomore Brandon Diego came to the meeting as a commissioner. He had come to one of the commission’s meetings before, and they recruited him to become a part of the commission. After saying yes, he began working on relations between Latino students at IU and Latinos in the community. Marte joked that Navarro might be the next to follow in Diego’s footsteps. “I’m excited to come back and learn more,” Navarro said. The Commission on Hispanic and Latino Affairs meets publicly at 5:30 p.m. the first Wednesday of every month in the McCloskey conference room at City Hall.

Exhibit presents city’s drinking water worries By Annie Garau agarau@indiana.edu | @agarau6
In the early 1900s, students at IU stressed about many of the same things students do today: homework, tests and relationships. They had one worry, however, that modern Hoosiers cannot relate to: running out of water. In fact, until the city began creating lakes, everyone in Bloomington was worried about getting enough to drink, bathe and operate factories, according to the Monroe County History Center’s exhibit, “Water Woes: Monroe County’s Issues with H20.” Ever since settlers moved into the county, the exhibit explains, there were difficulties. With no large bodies of water, residents depended on unreliable wells and cisterns. During periods of drought, the city would encourage students not to bathe. University officials would drive around in trucks to fill receptacles with whatever water they could give. “So we filled that tub with the chocolate-covered water, and that was, for I don’t know how long,
the total water supply we had.” said Arthur Mogge, a student from the 1910s. The lack of water led to the spread of diseases like typhoid and tuberculosis. The University established the Pest House as a place where sick students could be quarantined. Eventually, the exhibit said, IU threatened to move the University out of Bloomington. Instead, they established University Lake as the school’s private water supply. “I try to make the comparison to the water issues out in California and the Southwest,” David Vanderstel, the museum’s executive director, said. “We need to be aware of our water sources and of conservation measures to protect those sources.” Next to the antique dresses, washing machines and bed pans is a case displaying the types of modern pipes and sanitation suits used to help quench thirst today. Bloomington now gets its water from Lake Monroe, which was built between 1960 and 1965. University Lake has become a place for drainage from the golf course. Griffy Lake is the city’s backup
water supply. “We look at Lake Monroe and say, ‘Hey, there’s no problem,’” Vanderstel said. “But if you look at some communities out West, they’ve had water levels in reservoirs drop 40 or 50 feet.” He said with today’s climate issues, it is important for people to think more about their water supply and what actions they would be able to take in case of major drought. Personal water use charts are provided at the exhibit for people to track how much they use each week. The average shower takes 50 gallons of water, taking a bath uses 40 gallons, cooking a meal uses three gallons and one load of laundry uses 30 gallons, according to the chart. “We take these lakes for granted,” Vanderstel said. “The exhibit is intended to not only give that historical perspective on the issue, but also cause people to think about the future.” “Water Woes: Monroe County’s Issues with H20” is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday at the Monroe County History Center, 202 E. Sixth St.

Man incarcerated for having sex with slide We’ve all had those urges. Granted, most have us feel those urges for other human beings, but to each his own. Christopher Johnson was arrested after preforming a sex act on a slide at a playground in England.
This is his second offense against a slide, his preferred sexual partner. Johnson will receive treatment as a sex offender and he’s officially banned from all locations that feature slides. We’ll have to slide with the law on this one. The swings are where it’s at.
PEYTON’S PERSPECTIVE EDITORIAL BOARD
Avoiding pre-Roe v. Wade Abortions Peyton Hurst is a junior in journalism.
Lena Dunham — one of the most avid advocates for feminism — created a massive wave throughout the Internet with her hashtag, #AskYourMother. In light of the ongoing battle between the Republican Party and Planned Parenthood, Dunham increased the efforts to stand with Planned Parenthood. She is doing so by urging everyone to ask their mothers if they had an abortion — specifically before the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court case in 1973. Before Roe v. Wade, abortion was illegal in the United States, and women who wanted one were forced to go to extreme measures. Dunham began the #AskYourMother hashtag story with asking her own mother if she had an abortion. In her essay “Why you should #askyourmother about her abortion,” Dunham and her friend/producing partner Jenni Konner asked Konner’s mother and her friend about their abortions before the Supreme Court decision. Konner describes her mother’s story, writing, “And it was amazing. It was healing. It was informative. And it was heartbreaking.” Her mother tells Konner an eye-opening story of how she drove to Mexico, held sunglasses in her left hand and felt certain that she was going to die. Fortunately, Ronnie Konner lived to tell her story. Unfortunately, other stories did not turn out as well as hers. Since the hashtag became viral, many women have sent in their mother’s stories of abortions. By speaking out about abortions, it reduces the shame and stigma that is thrown at women who have had them. Being open about our mothers’ traumatic experiences helps shed light on what’s to come if our reproductive rights are taken from us. The reproductive rights and healthcare of women should not be a political issue for men to decide. Men should make no decisions concerning a woman’s body. Whether you are prochoice or anti-choice — not pro-life as Dunham’s mother taught her to say, “We are all pro-life, sweetie” — put your differences aside for a moment. History will repeat itself and women will still get abortions — legal or not. The only thing that will change is the safety of women’s lives. Whether you agree with abortion or not, you should agree on the fact that women should have their own rights for whatever choices she may make for her body. We need to stand together in this crucial time, and stand up for our reproductive rights, before we have to #AskOurDaughters. We need a lot of things in this country, but a relapse of a dark time in women’s history isn’t one of them. America needs to move forward, not back into our dangerous past. You can submit your #AskYourMother story to submissions@lennyletter. com. Include #AskYourMother in the subject and let your mother’s story be heard. prhurst@indiana.edu @IDSPeyton
ILLUSTRATION BY MORGAN ANDERSON | IDS
A modern man of God WE SAY: Pope’s leadership invents new era for Catholicism Since the beginning of his papacy, Pope Francis worked as a people’s pope, and for good reason. In an extremely clever move, he initiated a Jubilee Year of Mercy, in which “the forgiveness of God cannot be denied to one who has repented,” as mentioned in his press letter from the Vatican published Tuesday. We think it is important to note that he’s the people’s pope because he knows how to navigate the politics of a secular world. He understands that the Catholic Church has, for a long time, seemed like an unforgiving and cold institution abound with hypocrisy and harshness. He understands that the Church needs to change direction — and fast — in order to be relevant without compromising the core values of Catholics’ faith. The pope granted Catholic priests permission to forgive women for the “sin of abortion,” within the announcement of the Year of Mercy. The news made international headlines. There was a long-standing policy in place that women who had abortions
were excommunicated from the Catholic Church and could only re-join after repenting and with permission from a bishop. While most parishes had already been ignoring the policy to a certain extent, the fact that it was still in place was problematic. Francis’ recognition and abolition of this and other unfair and problematic policies has made him a pope that, finally, people feel like they can rally behind. Though it’s unclear how the Church will approach abortion after the Year of Mercy, the pope recognizes women who have abortions are ostracized by their parishes. In his letter, he writes, ”The tragedy of abortion is experienced by some with a superficial awareness, as if not realizing the extreme harm that such an act entails. Many others, on the other hand, although experiencing this moment as a defeat, believe that they have no other option. I think in particular of all the women who have resorted to abortion.” This is not the first time he’s done something like this.
Early in his papacy he made a series of statements that condemned homophobia and homophobic behavior. He’s also met with victims of sexual abuse and made statements asking for increased environmental awareness. Of course he isn’t perfect. The idea that women who have had abortion would need to seek “redemption” is problematic, but then again redemption is a key element of any practicing Catholic’s faith. Confession is a necessary step for anyone who has sinned, according to the Church. Moreover, while he’s someone who knows how to navigate through the secular world, he doesn’t seem to do so maliciously. He initiated the Year of Mercy because he wants to be merciful, not just because it was a good PR move. If it helps people give and receive forgiveness and kindness, then we can’t really complain. And if we could request it, we want Pope Francis to come to IU, not Brother Jeb.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
European refugee crisis is more complex The refugee problem in Europe isn’t quite so simple as western Europe accepting immigrants in droves and eastern Europe refusing them. Such interpretations, as expressed in Rachel Miller’s story “Refugee crisis splits Eastern and Western Europe,” which appeared Sept. 9 in the IDS, are very simplified. Just look at the events in Calais, France, this summer when the United Kingdom was against accepting migrants on its territory — some died while trying to enter the country. The Czech Republic is willing to accept the refugees, but it argues mandatory quotas are not a solution to the refugee crisis. The Czech Republic also said the Schengen Treaty was mutually exclusive with the quotas, as many asylumseekers apply in Germany and would likely seek to immigrate there illegally if they are deferred to the Czech Republic. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to keep them in a country that would not be the country of their choice because there are no patrolled borders inside the Schengen.
By the way, Slovakia is helping Austria by accepting many refugees from the overfilled Austrian camps. The Czech Republic sent envoys to the camps in the Middle East to prepare to relocate 400 refugees, among them families of Syrian children they are already treating in the Czech hospitals, and dispatched envoys to the camps in Italy and Greece to transport another 1,500 refugees to the Czech Republic, which has a population of 10 million. Germany withdrew its plan to lower the income tax next year and intends to accept almost one million immigrants and refugees in the near future. Volunteers come from all over the EU to help migrants on the EU borders. This summer more than 170,000 migrants crossed the border to Hungary, which has a population of 10 million. The asylum seekers should first register in Hungary — or any other Schengen border country — but many of them refuse to do so because they fear they would not be allowed to apply for asylum in Germany. Of course, it is unacceptable to
use violence against people seeking asylum, as expressed in “Violence against refugees in the EU” by Emma Wenninger, published Sept. 17. On the other hand, asylum seekers should abstain from violence, too. Some Hungarian policemen had to be treated for injuries after migrants began to dismantle the wall in an attempt to cross the Hungarian-Serbian border and threw rocks and plastic bottles with water on the police. There are crossing points at the border to Hungary where asylum seekers can enter the country and register, even without any documents. For three months only, the EU countries registered 213,200 applicants for asylum, which includes 44,000 Syrian and 27,000 Afghan refugees. But what about those millions of Syrian refugees in the overcrowded camps in Lebanon, Jordan or Turkey? Those who do not have money to pay smugglers to get them to Europe also deserve attention and help. Marta Kiripolska Visiting scholar Bloomington, Indiana
IT’S A MAD, MAD WORLD
Banking on Azealia Banks to say more slurs I’ve officially started a zero tolerance policy when it comes to musicians who are problematic. The removal of toxic artists in my life unfortunately begins with Azealia Banks. Banks, a black, female rapper from Harlem notorious for her outspoken nature, was involved in an altercation with a Delta Airlines flight attendant on a plane that landed early Tuesday morning in Los Angeles. A passenger filmed the altercation, and it was later released by TMZ to the gossip channels, causing Banks to start trending on Twitter on Tuesday. In the video, Banks is facing the camera, arguing with a male flight attendant. After imploring the flight attendant to “let go of (her) fucking bag,” — which prompted a visit from a copilot — Banks called him a “fucking faggot.” The moment the slur left her lips, gasps were heard throughout the cabin. Banks left the plane with a huff via the jet way, and the flight attendant stood motionless, stunned in silence. I’m not calling TMZ a watchdog by any means, and I honestly despise the paparazzi culture our generation loves to consume, but it’s times like these when viral videos of
celebs in real life are necessary. While her name was trending Tuesday, Banks sent out a tweet that read, “I am bisexual. My brother is trans. My employees are all gay men. Nothing else to say.” No apology, only excuses. So I’ve decided to give Banks the boot from my iTunes account, my Twitter feed, my tumblr and any other subsequent form of media where I may find her. I wanted to like Azealia Banks, I truly did. But the woman made it impossible. Being a bisexual woman, a sister to someone who is transexual and an employer of gay men makes this situation all the more unacceptable. Banks knows better. She knew she was wrong, and she decided her actions weren’t heinous enough to warrant an apology. This viral video isn’t the first time Banks used a slur, and it’s far from her first offense of being ignorant. In 2013, she tweeted, “They said I look like the tranny from orange is the new black,” followed by a frowny face with multiple mouths. The tweet referred to trans actress Laverne Cox, a woman who’s dedicated a large portion of her life to speaking against rac-
ism, transphobia and social injustices. For those who are unfamiliar with trans rhetoric and vocabulary, “tranny” is an offensive term that shouldn’t be uttered. Maybe having a trans relative gave Banks the wrong impression about what types of names she can use, but it’s a huge oversight for someone who claims to be a speaker of truths about prejudice. In the past, Banks spoke about the problems black female artists face and how she struggles as a bisexual in a predominately straight industry. I even quoted her in one of my most recent columns about the Madame Tussauds wax figure of Nicki Minaj. Her tweets gave insight into how black female musicians are portrayed as sexual deviants whose accomplishments don’t measure up to those of their white counterparts. But all the progress went to waste the moment Banks decided to take her anger out on someone else. We’ve set the bar high for our artists, and I refuse to make exceptions to this rule because Banks occasionally has valid points on prejudice against black women. Her banishment from my iTunes is the same reason I stopped listening

to artists like R. Kelley, Iggy Azalea — why I started, I’ll never know — and Chris Brown. There are plenty of people who would argue with my decision, saying what an artist does outside of their work shouldn’t matter to their fans. I’m sorry, but I have too much integrity to pay money for someone’s work when their words and actions work against everything I believe. If I supported things I didn’t believe in, I might as well shell out cash to places that want to deny gay couples service because they have great products. Honestly, I’m not making an unreasonable demand here. I’m not saying Banks should become a model, well-behaved citizen — her badassery was one of the things I liked about her. I’m not even asking for artists to share the same values as me. All I want is for the people I purchased music from to treat other people like human beings. maehogan@indiana.edu @madisonhogan

Unfortunately, there is no Uncle Sam-sponsored miracle cure that can solve a problem at the root of our nation’s government. Political polarization is harming the effectiveness of the federal government and our ability to solve problems. You could spin a wheel and pick almost any topic under the sun — immigration, Planned Parenthood, religious liberty and the federal deficit to name a few — and find insane comments made about it from the left and right wings of the issue. All of these, and many more, are critical issues that affect almost all of us. Yet there is no approachable middle ground to be found in America today. A Pew Research Center survey from 2014 found that we as Americans are more polarized than we have been at any point in the last two decades. 92 percent of Republicans are more conservative than the average Democrat, which is up from 70 percent in 2004. And 94 percent of Democrats are more liberal than the average Republican, up from 68 percent of the same year. While it’s no surprise that Democrats are more liberal than Republicans are, it’s disappointing to see that each party is now more entrenched within its own views than it ever has been before. So far, very few of the candidates running for president can boast that they have successful bipartisan leadership experience to bring to the table. While Hillary Clinton did work with congressional Republicans during her tenure as first lady and as a senator from New York, too often her messages towards

Republicans have been negative and accusatory. However, the Republicans themselves are definitely not blameless either. Their current front-runner, businessman Donald Trump, has been characterized by many political figures as being a bully for his remarks towards Democrats and other politicians. Who can we look to provide positive examples of cooperation? We need more leaders like Jon Huntsman, Tom Davis and Richard Lugar, who represented our great state for a total of 36 years. While each of these political figures might lean more towards one side than the other, they are not afraid to reach across divided aisle ways to find common sense solutions to problems. Each of these politicians have served under both Democratic and Republican presidents. They have voted for bills that were crafted by the opposing party, and sometimes they even helped create bills with people from the opposite side of Congress. They are also not motivated to see how popular they can get on cable news or social media. They have ideas, they have experience and they have a vision to get things done. And that’s what brings them together. I’d like to see the talking heads on any cable network be able to do that. ttfitzpa@indiana.edu @tfitzwrites
A SLICE OF SOMETHING REAL
U.S. income gap reflected in our diets Food insecurity has been an issue in the U.S. for decades. While American diets are slowly improving, the diets of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients’ are still worse than Americans with higher incomes. Access to fruits and vegetables is not the only problem. The fact is, low-income Americans do not have the time or the knowledge to cook. As the wealthiest country in the history of the world, it is unacceptable for the 46.5 million Americans who receive SNAP to lack basic cooking knowledge. According to a review of 25 studies done between 2003 and 2014, Americans who receive SNAP are consuming the same amount of calories as all other socioeconomic groups, but they are consuming less fruits and vegetables. This is where food insecurity comes into play. The types of vegetables that are widely available are tomatoes, potatoes and lettuce. All three of these veggies have much less nutritional value than collard greens, broccoli or kale, for example. And that’s not all. Grocery stores that sell a wider variety of vegetables are in higher income areas, which are usually only accessible to low income Americans and SNAP recipients if they take long bus rides or walk to these areas. Why do higher-income Americans have greater access to healthy foods when they have the means to travel farther to get their food? This is a problem that does not have any immediate solutions. The only immediate solution is to give SNAP recipients the information they need in order to buy healthier foods on a budget and learn to cook. Fortunately, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has considered incentive programs to aid SNAP recipients in making healthier choices. The department is reportedly investing $100 million in Double Up Food

Bucks, which doubles the SNAP benefits for recipients who buy fruits and vegetables from farmers’ markets. This plan, if it goes through, is a great start. It helps people gain knowledge and eat healthier, while also simultaneously aiding American farmers, a group that has been struggling and declining in size for decades. The USDA also has a program called Cooking Matters that teaches low-income families how to shop for nutritious food on a budget and teaches them how to cook the food they purchase. However, this incentive program is run through states and private organizations; the USDA has no way of knowing how many people are actually benefitting from these incentives. You might be thinking that people on SNAP who are eating less fruits and vegetables are making personal choices to avoid healthy foods. Honestly, junk foods are more readily available than healthier choices. Unhealthy foods are often cheaper than healthier options and, from an economic standpoint, less healthy options carry more calories for less money. Meaning low-income Americans are getting more fuel for less money. With all the other overwhelming concerns of making ends meet, food is the last thing many people care about. As a country, we need to make healthier choices more readily available to lower income Americans and SNAP recipients who have less time to shop and cook their meals. We also need to make sure cooking classes are incorporated into public education in some way. Knowledge is power, even when it comes to how and what you consume. rcm2@indiana.edu @RachelCMiller1

Levasseur brought with her a few coloring pages to show the real powers of creativity in positive mental development. A few members of the group threw out their initial ideas for what to do with the blank circle, which Levasseur said is common in her own creative process. “It is yours,” Levasseur said. “If you are not happy with it, guess what — you can start over.” Meghan Adcock, behavior therapist with Milestones, said she practices a similar
form of therapy with her clients. The idea of everyone’s equal fallibility and acknowledgment of mistakes is one that resonates with those engaged in the therapy. “It kind of shows that vulnerableness and they appreciate that, ‘Oh, you didn’t know what you were doing either,’” Adcock said. “They teach me so much.” Levasseur asked attendees how they felt at each stage of the process from the first activity of coloring within a circle to the second, a thoughtfully crafted crest that represented what each person was most proud of in their lives. Martin-Colman said she enjoyed the activities because they allowed her to see her son engaged in the creative work about which he is passionate. Colman said this sort of representational art is where he focuses his artistic perspective. “Being in this business, there’s an adage that has
proven itself to be true: the more eccentric the artist, the better the artwork,” Colman said. For people who are not interested in that particular type of creativity, Levasseur said other forms of expression function similarly for therapeutic purposes. Levasseur brought a page of quotes to distribute. With the quotes, the intention is that the client will write or create a collage based on how that quote resonates with them. Martin-Colman said the event was a nice way to celebrate Yom Kippur, a day when the anxieties of everyday life are meant to be alleviated. “I feel better,” MartinColman said. “What does better feel like?” Lavasseur said. Martin-Colman smiled at her coloring page. “I’m supposed to go into this holiday non-stressed,” Martin-Colman said. “This is doing all of that.”
The Media School officially announced a new partnership with IU Athletics, according to a press release Tuesday. The partnership will feature collaboration and resource sharing between the new Mark Cuban Center, the National Sports Journalism Center, the Media School’s technology team and resources, and student media and interest groups. The Media School, inaugurated in October 2014, merged IU’s journalism and telecommunications departments, placing both in Franklin Hall. The Mark Cuban Center, which will be housed in the west side of Assembly Hall, was established in June, after a $5 million grant from IU alumnus Mark Cuban. After renovations to Assembly Hall finish in the spring of 2017, the Cuban Center will offer advancements in technology, such as virtual reality technology, 3-D technology and other media-related technology.

IU Athletics Director Fred Glass said in a press release. “We cannot thank (Media School Dean) James Shanahan and the Media School enough for helping make this historic and unique partnership possible.” Clavio said the opportunities offered to sports journalism students through the partnership will help students adjust to changes in the field. “Students in sports media are as likely to be applying for jobs with college athletic departments, professional franchises or entities like NFL Network and MLBTV as they are with traditional media outlets, like local television stations and newspapers,” Clavio said. “This partnership helps to give students valuable experience in media areas that don’t fall under traditional journalism, and it’s a great fit alongside the wonderful student journalism opportunities already on the Bloomington campus.”

Conceptually, music festivals have no set venues. The biggest names — Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo — tend toward wide-open spaces like farms, fields or city parks. However, plenty, like Austin’s South by Southwest and Gainesville, Florida’s, the Fest, take over the cities’ rock clubs, theaters and other dedicated music venues. The Lotus World Music & Arts Festival leans toward the latter description, though most of its venues wouldn’t qualify as traditional music spaces. Six spaces are hosting events for the 22nd Lotus Festival on Friday and Saturday: three churches, two tents and the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. The Buskirk-Chumley has been working with Lotus Festival since the theater reopened in 1999, said executive director Danielle McClelland, who has been with the theater since 2001. She said the theater’s history helps its partnership with the festival run smoothly. “Because the BCT has been part of Lotus for such a long period of time, the way we structure our involvement, the way we run the front of house and our professionalism ... make it an ideal venue for the festival,” she said. “It makes it really easy on the festival.” McClelland said the festival usually places artists with quieter or more subdued music in the church venues, and tents are set up to house more pop-oriented and dance-friendly acts. That leaves the Buskirk-Chumley with artists that split the difference. “It’s going to tend to be a quieter group, but not as quiet as the churches,” she said. “It’s going to be the more popular acts you want to sit and listen to.” McClelland also said she enjoys the way the festival transforms Bloomington. The downtown area turns into a “party zone,” but it’s nevertheless kid- and family-friendly, and it exposes residents to music and art they might not otherwise be exposed to. Similarly, she said, the festival provides an opportunity for exposure for the Buskirk-Chumley, both to people who live in Bloomington but wouldn’t normally attend events at the theater and the many out-of-towners drawn by the festival. That includes audiences and musicians. MarchFourth! marching band performed at Lotus Festival several years ago as part of its street parade. Now, the group has developed a stage show and has a Bloomington stop scheduled for October at the BuskirkChumley, which they connected with via the festival. “The Lotus Festival is an introduction to the theater for people who wouldn’t normally otherwise pay attention,” McClelland said. Like the Buskirk-Chumley, the First United Methodist Church has a history of working with Lotus Festival — facilities manager Erin Inlow said the church has participated since the festival’s inception — but because it doesn’t specialize in performances, it requires greater set-up. That includes a stage built specifically for such performances. Pews are removed from the space, and the stage — several parts that fit together like a puzzle — is assembled, Inlow said. Then lighting and sound have to be set up as well. “A lot goes on behind the scenes across the whole town,” she said. Inlow said the church has hosted a diverse range of acts for Lotus Festival, including Irish and Cajun music and a cappella artists. Even before she worked at First United Methodist, she said she attended the festival fairly regularly, going with her children as well as her brothers and their families. “You just see instruments you’ve never seen before,” she said. “You see things and experience things you never have before.”

Associate professor’s book selected From IDS reports
Associate professor Ross Gay was selected for the 2015 National Book Awards Longlist for Poetry. He was selected for his book, “Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude.” He is one of 10 poets to be selected; the National Book Foundation will announce the finalists Oct. 14. “I feel lucky to have the book be amongst a really wonderful bunch of poets and books,” Gay said in an email interview. His other poetry collections include “Against Which” and “Bringing the Shovel Down,” according to a press release. Gay said “Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude,” published February 2015, stands out because of its intimate nature. “My poetry, in this book, is kind of talky and intimate — like it wants to be your friend and tell you stories and ask questions of itself in front of you,” he said in an email. “It kind of wants to hold its heart in its hands (that is a cliche, enjoy it) in front of you, and say, ‘Check this out!’” A “zillion” things inspired “Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude,” Gay said, ranging from the free-fruit-for-all

He said the engine of these poems lies in the ways things can possibly be transformed. “That’s all to say that the strange and undervalued and sexy and gone and unseen and dreamt … inspire me,” Gay said in an email. Gay has also co-authored books, including “River” with Richard Wehrenberg, Jr. and “Lace

He said he writes poems because they are fun, and yet they allow him to connect to his own deeper thinking. “It is one of the ways I recognize and articulate and interact with my sorrow,” he said. “And my joy.” Gay said he uses metaphors in his poetry, which are “magic.” Anyone who is kind enough to read or listen to Gay’s poetry is his in-

He said he hopes these readers take something from his poetry. “I hope something useful,” he said in an email. “Someone told me they left a reading of mine and smelled flowers for the first time in years. That was pretty good.” Bridget Murray
Soprano to sing at IU Auditorium By Anne Halliwell ahalliwe@indiana.edu @Anne_Halliwell
Audiences will hear an unusually unembellished version of the opera when soprano Angela Gheorghiu sings in recital Wednesday night. International opera star Gheorghiu will perform songs from her 23-year career at 8 p.m. in the IU Auditorium. Maria Talbert, the IU Auditorium’s managing director, said in an email to the
IDS that, as a part of the IU Auditorium’s 75th season, Gheorghiu’s performance will “pay homage to the early days of the Auditorium, when (the building) frequently housed touring presentations from the Metropolitan Opera.” Gheorghiu has performed onstage at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York as well as at the London Royal Opera House and Vienna State Opera. Talbert said her performance will help to “evoke memories from the
Auditorium’s long history as a presenter of worldclass arts and entertainment.” The set list features multiple works by Italian composers Vincenzo Bellini, Giacomo Puccini and Francesco Paolo Tosti. “Ms. Gheorghiu’s work is renowned in the worlds of opera and classical voice,” Talbert said. “And her name is on a very short and very elite list of female vocalists who have transcended the genre to become famous throughout the world.”

Composer Jay Hurst’s piece “Still Lives” for orchestra did not begin as an orchestral composition. “The piece actually began as a piece for solo electric guitar,” Hurst said. He wrote the original piece for his master’s recital, Hurst said, and he used a nontraditional method of playing the electric guitar, which involved placing the instrument on a table and striking the strings like a percussion instrument. In 2014, Hurst completed an orchestral version of the piece, which is the version that will be performed on Wednesday. The Concert Orchestra in the Jacobs School of Music will perform at 8 p.m. at the Musical Arts Center. The concert features guest conductor Daniel Boico. Hurst, an associate instructor in composition, is pursuing his doctorate at the music school. “Still Lives,” featured in the concert, won the 2015 Indiana University Dean’s Prize in Composition in the orchestral category. The concert also features Leonard Bernstein’s “Overture to ‘Candide’ (1956)” and Sergei Rachmaninoff ’s “Symphony No. 2 in E Minor, Op. 27 (1907).” Hurst said his composition involves extended techniques for the orchestra, such as the string instruments playing the highest notes possible. After listening to the original piece, Hurst said he split up the individual sounds of the electric guitar and assigned them to different people in the orchestra. Boico said he likes the vibrant sound of Hurst’s
composition. “What I like most is how colorful it is,” Boico said. “He really tries to use the orchestral pallet to show different soundscapes.” Boico said Hurst’s work is inventive because of the transformation of music originally meant for the electrical guitar into an orchestral piece. “You have to be really innovative and think outside the box to bring out the different sounds and colors that the electrical guitar would produce while using classical instruments,” Boico said. Hurst said he is looking forward to the entire program, including the pieces by Bernstein and Rachmaninoff, because it will be fiery and full of energy. “It’s a really great program in general,” Hurst said. Boico said the opening Bernstein piece is a fun ride because it is both difficult and energetic. He said the Rachmaninoff piece is a giant symphony that lasts for almost an hour and includes romantic tunes, harmony and driving rhythms. “Every movement brings the Rachmaninoff that we all love so much,” Boico said. Boico said the students in the Concert Orchestra are fantastic. “They all come from different backgrounds, but they all are on a really high level musically and technically,” Boico said. Hurst said the orchestra sounds great, and he said he is pleased with Boico’s work with his composition. “It’s a privilege to have somebody who is getting details in your work and getting the orchestra to respond to very specific details in the music,” Hurst said. “It’s a luxury, and I can’t thank him enough.”

Hoosiers look to end three-game skid By Lionel Lim lalimwei@indiana.edu | @lionelimwx
IU has lost the first two games of its Big Ten season. It was in 2005 when the Hoosiers last failed to win their first two Big Ten games. In that year, the Hoosiers drew against Michigan State in the opening game and lost 2-1 to Penn State. The Hoosiers (3-3-1) currently sit at the bottom of the Big Ten rankings and have not won their past three games. IU will have a chance to break that streak when they face Evansville in a nonconference game Wednesday evening. The Hoosiers were 2-0
winners at Arad McCutchan Stadium in Evansville last year, and they have never lost to Evansville. The 4-1 loss to Rutgers on Sunday was not anticipated by IU Coach Todd Yeagley. “We were flat, and that’s disappointing in a really big game at an important time of the year against a Big Ten opponent,” Yeagley said after the Rutgers loss. “I didn’t anticipate that one bit, and we have to regroup now.” The game against Evansville offers IU a break from conference play, and Yeagley said he hopes the Hoosiers will display their mettle and bounce back from Sunday’s defeat. “We got to hold it to-
gether and see how resilient these guys are,” Yeagley said. The Hoosiers were also highly-touted in 2013 but could not meet expectations. Current junior midfielder Tanner Thompson, who was on the 2013 team, said he refuses to allow 2015 to take a similar path. “It reminds me of what happened in 2013, being .500 this time of year,” Thompson said. “We’re not going to let that happen this year.” Wednesday’s game against Evansville will allow the Hoosiers an opportunity to get their season back on track, and Yeagley said he is keen for them to do so. “We’ll regroup and be ready for them,” Yeagley said.

Basketball tranfers join candy-striped tradition awittry@indiana.edu | @AndyWittry
Had Max Bielfeldt worn red clothing to class in the past four years, he would have been reprimanded. The color was banned among men’s basketball players at Michigan, where the 6-foot-8 forward began his undergraduate career. Now a graduate transfer at IU, he’s trying to add the once-stigmatized color to his wardrobe. “At Michigan, we weren’t allowed to wear red so (if) you wore red, you have a punishment workout,” Bielfeldt said. “Now I’m looking in my closet, and I’m like ‘Man, I don’t have a lot of red, do I?’ I’m coming here and trying to build up my gear stash a little bit so I actually look like I play for Indiana.” The fifth-year senior is one of two transfers added to IU’s roster in the offseason. After Bielfeldt signed in June, Pittsburgh point guard Josh Newkirk committed to the Hoosiers. While playing for their previous schools, both players experienced the raucous nature of Assembly Hall. Now they call it home. Michigan defeated IU during each of Bielfeldt’s four seasons with the Wolverines, and Newkirk’s Panthers lost by 12 in last year’s ACC/Big Ten Challenge matchup. “I remember just the noise
level,” Bielfeldt said, citing the matchup between No. 1 Michigan and No. 3 IU in February 2013. “We came here; it was probably, if not the loudest, one of the loudest places I’ve ever played. The passion this state has for Indiana basketball is unbelievable.” The passion of IU’s fans and the noise level in the arena garnered the attention of Newkirk, a junior. “Just walking into the gym and just feeling the tradition,” he said. “You get chills coming into this arena, so that was definitely one of the biggest things.” Bielfeldt never anticipated transferring within the Big Ten. But after not being able to return to Michigan following his graduation last spring, he had to look elsewhere if he wanted to use his final year of eligibility. DePaul, Iowa State and Nebraska, among other schools, were in pursuit of the forward’s services, but IU won him over after a campus visit in May. “I think of the choices I had for my last year of eligibility, Indiana was a pretty unique one,” Bielfeldt said. “They have a heck of a tradition.” The senior had witnessed the on-court abilities of many of the Hoosiers, especially the team’s returning core of Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell, James Blackmon Jr. and Troy Williams. Off the court, he said he meshed well with his new

teammates after meeting them during his visit. Combine that with the emphasis on player development and his acceptance into the Kelley School of Business, and Bielfeldt was presented an opportunity he couldn’t turn down. “It was just what was best for me,” he said. “It was ‘This is my best option for basketball, as well as school’ and I was just trying to better myself as far as I could.” Newkirk arrived in Bloomington under different circumstances. After undergoing microfracture surgery on his left knee in May, he decided to transfer from Pittsburgh after two years with the Panthers. In accordance with NCAA transfer rules, he will sit out this season, which he will use to rehabilitate his knee. Newkirk said he hopes to begin jogging in the next few weeks. In the mean time, he’s focusing on improving his ballhandling and fine-tuning his jump shot. When asked to define their roles on this year’s team, both players mentioned their leadership and experience. “My role off the court is being a 22-year-old, a leader that’s seen what it’s been like to get to the Final Four, seen what it’s been like to win Big Ten championships,” Bielfeldt said. “And kind of be that voice in the locker room that can make everyone stay focused and stay on the right track.”
After placing eighth in their first tournament of the year at the Powerade Cougar Classic with a score of 29-over-par 893, the Hoosiers finished the EastWest Match Play Championship third overall in Verona, Wisconsin. “We played outstanding,” IU Coach Clint Wallman said. “Top-to-bottom, we were just really impressive all weekend.” Beginning the tournament in stroke play Sunday, IU finished the first round fourth overall with 14-overpar 590, taking the final spot in the semifinal tournament, which took place Monday and Tuesday. Starting out strong was freshman Eva Domingo, who led the Hoosiers through the first round, finishing even at 144 in the first 36 holes, tying for seventh in the field. Freshman Erin Harper finished tied for 15th at 4-over-par 148 for the second spot on the team. “We really pushed taking high-percentage shots,” Wallman said. “If we make good decisions on our shots, it puts pressure on the other team to hit their shots and really exposes their weaknesses.” Entering hole-play, where the winners are determined by victories at
holes instead of total number of strokes, the Hoosiers played a close match with top-25 Colorado but lost, 3-2. The Buffaloes paired five of their golfers with five of the Hoosier golfers, pairing their top golfer, Esther Lee, with IU’s second golfer, Harper. “I thought Erin Harper did a really good job against Colorado’s top golfer,” Wallman said. “She hit some really good shots and showed the patience we’ve been looking for. She fended her off well.” Losing by 5 after 14 holes, Harper squared against Lee for five consecutive holes after conceding holes five and six. She lost holes 11, 13 and 14, though, to surrender the match. Senior Camille Chevalier, IU’s fourth golfer, earned one of the Hoosiers’ two wins against Colorado in the semis, though, as she defeated Brittany Fan, Colorado’s third golfer, 7&6. “Camille had two huge rounds,” Wallman said. “Shooting a 71 in match play was big, and she earned the 7&6 against Colorado. Everyone played highlight golf this weekend, including Camille.” Chevalier started the second round well, winning the first three holes against Fan, including birdies on holes two and three. She would go on to birdie holes five and 11 as well,
cementing her 12-hole victory against Fan. The Hoosiers’ first and fifth golfers, Domingo and sophomore Pear Siriko, respectively, lost their matches in one-up finals, meaning both golfers were tied with their opponents headed into the final hole but surrendered the lead, and the rounds, to the Colorado golfers. “We outplayed Colorado all day,” Wallman said. “We had the matchups we wanted and we felt good with the team we had, but we couldn’t put the opponents away in the back nine. The entire match shifted in about 20 minutes.” Finishing the tournament in a consolation match against the second-seeded Michigan Wolverines, IU won 3-1-1. Siriko, Domingo and junior Ana Sanjuan all won their rounds against Michigan, while Harper tied and Chevalier lost 4&3 to Michgan’s second golfer. The Hoosiers’ next tourament will be the Cardinal Cup October 19. “We are a really young team,” Wallman said. “We had one senior, one junior, one sophomore and two freshmen out there this weekend. Tactically and intellectually, they are better than many teams, but we just have to clean up our execution. Then we could be a real contender in the Big Ten.”

Auditorium organ preserves history By Seth Tow stow@indiana.edu | @Ready_Seth_Go_
When you ask someone to name their favorite place or sight at IU, common responses might include Assembly Hall, Showalter Fountain or Sample Gates, among others. However, an object is housed in the IU Auditorium that shares just as rich of a history. The IU Auditorium organ is different from many organs found in the world. According to the IU Auditorium website, the organ boasts a grand total of 4,543 pipes, 88 stops — knobs on the organ — and 76 ranks — groups of pipes. John DeLong, IU Auditorium stage manager, said the console is stored in the basement of the auditorium, and when it’s brought upstairs for use, it’s digitally connected to the pipes. “The original organ was built by Frank Roosevelt for the Chicago Auditorium in Chicago,” Curator Emeritus Tom Wood said. “It was the largest organ in the country at that time.” Wood’s experience with the organ dates back to the 1960s, he said, when he cared for the original organ for a private company. According to the website, Roosevelt built the original organ in 1889, and it was housed in the Chicago Auditorium until the building was demolished in the 1940s. Dr. William Harrison Barnes of Evanston, Illinois, wanted to see the organ saved, as it is a one-of-a-kind instrument. “IU Auditorium was built on the same pattern as the

Chicago Auditorium, so (Barnes) saved it and donated it to IU,” Wood said. Wood said IU was lucky to receive the instrument because there wasn’t another organ suitable for usage in recitals or other events at the time. “The previous largest organ was about one-twentieth the size of this one,” Wood said. According to the website, the organ was installed in the IU auditorium in 1944. In 1961, there was a small

fire backstage in the auditorium. Wood said the fire triggered the sprinkler system, which caused damage to some of the pipes, as well as the console. This, along with some already deteriorating pipework, forced the organ to be rebuilt. "(In 1969) the new organ was built for the auditorium,” Wood said. “(They) retained five of the original sets of pipes from the original organ.” The new organ was built with some of the pipes ex-

posed outside of the chambers, where the rest of the pipes are located. In the auditorium, they are on the left wall. However, DeLong said the pipes on the wall only account for about one-fourth of the total pipes. Wood said there was a great desire to ensure that the organ’s sound could be dispensed throughout the room. “(The old organ) had a lot of cables and hoses and wire, probably about a foot in diameter, to connect it to the Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 9 — For the next month, under the Libra Sun, partnerships and alliances are very important.

And because of that, we’re able to store the console in the basement usually when it’s not in use.” DeLong said it takes two people to move the instrument upstairs from the basement. “The organ currently gets used for university functions,” Wood said. “(President) McRobbie asked for an increase in usage, since it wasn’t used much before.” Sun in Libra.

a private class, but also not a concert, though they are in a concert setting,” Cohen said before the master class. “I guess mainly that I hope I can inspire them ... and have a connection.” Cohen’s discussion and master class should provide practical experience to IU music students that they can use in other artistic and professional pursuits, Talbert said. Talbert said the IU Auditorium expects a roughly even split between students and community members who will attend the recital. Tickets will be available at the IU Auditorium box office or iuauditorium.com until the performance at 8 p.m. Wednesday. Cohen said he first met Gheorghiu around 2000 and has worked with her several times in the 15 or so years since they became acquainted. “It’s an incredible honor to be onstage with her,” Cohen said. Because Gheorghiu will perform without a backing orchestra, Cohen said her sound may be different from what the average listener might expect. “Obviously she’s an opera star — with those people, to do a recital with a piano exposes them in a new way,” Cohen said. “(The arias) are an incredible intensity ... when she gets (to perform them), the voice is incredibly passionate and it’s amazing.” Feel the love around you.

Especially focus on your work today and tomorrow. Your reputation is growing.
