Megan Yoder remembered as fearless, passionate and a leader By Katelyn Haas haask@umail.iu.edu | @khaas96
Kinny Liu’s first memory of Megan Yoder was an event for Net Impact, an IU Kelley School of Business club. She was a blur, snapping photos in the crowd. “We were all terrified of the speaker,” Liu said, who worked as co-president of Net Impact with Megan. “No one wanted to ask the first question – except Megan.” Megan Yoder, 21 and a junior at IU, died Aug. 25 after a year-long battle with multifocal glioblastoma, a
form of brain cancer. She was born Dec. 4, 1995, in Indianapolis. She was enrolled in IU Bloomington’s Kelley School of Business Honors program, where she studied supply chain management and sustainable business. She is survived by her family, her fiance, her parents and her brother. Yoder battled with leukemia since seventh grade, her family said. She had been in remission for five years when she began having numbness in the left side of her face and body last September. Her family and friends describe
her as fearless and passionate. She was passionate about the environment, understanding other people and their cultures and creating a greener IU. She wanted to work in disadvantaged parts of the world, specifically in Latin America after an internship in Ecuador. Her goal was to help SEE MEMORIAL, PAGE 6 COURTESY PHOTO

IU students protected under DACA turn to La Casa for legal, emotional support in wake of appeal
By Jaden Amos jamamos@iu.edu | @jaden_pucka
Students at La Casa Latino Cultural Center laughed, hugged and talked to each other Wednesday night, but the overcrowded room quickly became silent other than the sounds of sniffles as they settled in for the Decision to End DACA Conversation. Thousands of students across the
country, including ones in that room, could potentially lose their chance to live in the United States due to the repeal of the Deferred Action of Childhood Arrivals program, which allows people that immigrated as children to legally live, work and attend school in the United States. “I don’t know how I feel,” junior and DACA recipient Karen said. “It’s unfair. That’s all I know. It is just unfair that
people are treating our future like it’s a game.” Karen is a student affected by DACA and said she attended the discussion to get more information on the repeal. She is eligible for DACA for two more years but said she is scared. She said she immigrated to the United States from Mexico when she SEE LA CASA, PAGE 6

Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the Trump administration’s plan to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program in a speech Tuesday morning at the Department of Justice. Sessions touted the rule of law and called the program’s implementation a circumvention of the Constitution. DACA was created through an executive order by former President Barack Obama in 2012. It allows eligible immigrants who entered the country illegally as minors to stay and apply for work permits for a two-year period. The period of deferred action is renewable. Obama released a statement on Facebook on Tuesday calling the decision cruel. He said it was up to Congress to ensure protection for the future of young immigrants.
“Ultimately, this is about basic decency,” Obama said. “This is about whether we are a people who kick hopeful young strivers out of America, or whether we treat them the way we’d want our own kids to be treated. It’s about who we are as a people – and who we want to be.” Sen. Joe Donnelly, D-Indiana, released a statement Monday calling on Congress to preserve DACA through legislative action. “Our country is still in need of reforms to fix our immigration system and strengthen border security, but in the interim we should pass bipartisan legislation to give these young people, who were brought here through no fault of their own, some clarity and stability,” Donnelly said in the statement. Donnelly voted against the DREAM Act as a member of the House of Representatives in 2010. In response to the decision, IU President Michael McRobbi

Sexual assault reported at Briscoe Residence Hall over Labor Day weekend From IDS reports
The IU Police Department received a report of a sexual assault at 11:21 a.m. Wednesday. The person reporting the incident told police they were assaulted by an unidentified suspect they
met at a party Saturday night. The suspect allegedly went with the individual to their room in Briscoe Residence Hall sometime between 12:40 and 2:30 a.m. Sunday morning when the assault took place. IU sent a crime notice about
the incident to all students in compliance with the Clery Act, which requires universities that receive federal funding to report campus crime data, outline campus safety policies and support victims of violence. The IUPD also received two
separate reports of sexual assault Monday, one of which allegedly took place at Read residence center and the other at Wright Quad. Both alleged sexual assaults occurred Sunday night, and both cases are still open. The department did not
immediately respond to requests for comment. IU encourages anyone with information about these incidents to call IUPD at 812-855-411 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Christine Fernando

HooSher Bhangra dance teaches culture By Peter Talbot pjtalbot@iu.edu | @petejtalbot
A lack of speakers to play music didn’t stop HooSher Bhangra from teaching a room of about 25 prospective dancers a few moves Tuesday at the Ora L. Wildermuth Intramural Center. For two hours, new dancers learned the basics of a Punjabi dance style. Many attendees were freshmen who had no prior experience and just wanted to try something new. “I’m coming with an open mind,” freshman Morgan Hoffman said just before the workshop began. Bhangra is a style of dance from the Punjabi region of India. It is performed at weddings, parties and festivals. It is also performed for competitions both as a solo dance and in teams. HooSher Bhangra focuses on team dances, performing at IU and around the state, both competitively and to raise funds for the club. “It's a dance of joy,” said senior Prince Singh, a cofounder and the current president of the club. “It's been part of the culture for a long, long time.” Singh started the club two years ago as a sophomore alongside then-junior Neha Sehgal. Under their leadership, Singh said the club grew from eight members the first year to 16 last year. This year, Singh has stepped down as a captain to focus on continuing the club's growth. “If you go to any Indian party, you'll see people dancing," Singh said. "We love to dance. So, that's what we wanted to bring here. People have been fascinated by Bhangra because it's so energetic, it's so out there, it's uni-

form, it's something different that people haven't seen. So, our goal is to promote that at IU and bring it here.” As the workshop began Tuesday, dancers stretched before sitting in a circle to learn more about the club and the symbolism and culture behind Bhangra from one of its captains, junior Omkar Tamhankar. It wasn’t long after that the attendees were on their feet learning their first moves.
Local man faces first hearing on slew of charges By Cody Thompson comthomp@iu.edu @CodyMThompson
Bloomington resident Evan McArdle, 19, faced his initial hearing Wednesday afternoon on the charges of attempted murder, criminal confinement, domestic battery and a previous charge of theft. He was arrested for these charges Monday in addition to a charge of intimidation. Police led McArdle, along with many others in jail or prison uniforms and shackles around their ankles, into the courtroom. When McArdle was called up, he spoke politely with Judge Mary Ellen Diekhoff as she read him the charges brought against him. McArdle allegedly stabbed his father-in-law late Saturday night, according to a probable cause affidavit, and he was arrested Monday afternoon. Police were called to the apartment of McArdle and his wife, Tabitha, where they saw three people arguing and yelling in the parking lot. According to the affidavit, Tabitha said she called her parents after Evan repeatedly slammed her head against a door on the back porch. Police discovered cuts and bruises on Tabitha’s face to corroborate this information, according to the affidavit. When her parents arrived, her mother decided to stay in the vehicle while her father, Steven Martinez, approached the door with a piece of a pipe police called a "cheater bar," according to the affidavit. The tool is technically called a breaker bar. Accounts differ on what happened next. Evan claimed Martinez told him that he was taking Tabitha away and started packing her things, according to the affidavit. When Evan was asking what was going on, he claimed Martinez hit him in the head with the breaker bar, at which point he pulled his knife in self-defense. Evan claimed that after stabbing Martinez twice on purpose and once on accident, he gave the knife to
Tabitha, who stabbed Evan twice in the same spot on the shoulder and slashed him. He said this all happened in the house, but police found no blood in the apartment, according to the affidavit. Martinez claimed that when he arrived to get Tabitha, Evan freaked out, stood behind her and put his knife to her chest, saying she was not allowed to leave. Martinez told police he brought the breaker bar because Evan was known to carry a knife and had made death threats in the past, according to the affidavit. He said he grabbed Tabitha from Evan and swung his tool to keep Evan at bay. However, Martinez said he didn’t think it hit him. That’s when Evan allegedly attacked Martinez with the knife and he fell backward, hitting his head on the concrete. Martinez remembered getting slashed once but didn’t realize he had two puncture wounds on his left side until paramedics told him later, according to the affidavit. Where his account blurs from his head injury, Tabitha’s completes. She claimed she told Evan to stop, and he dropped the knife but repeatedly kicked her father in the face. Police found bruising on the right side of Martinez’s face, according to the affidavit. Tabitha said she stabbed Evan two or three times to defend her father, whom she thought Evan was going to kill. Tabitha said there have been two other physical altercations between her husband and father. Tabitha, her mother and her father all said they heard Evan make threats in the past to kill Martinez, according to the affidavit. After reviewing evidence and interviews, police determined that Martinez and Tabitha were acting in defense of each other and that Evan intentionally tried to kill Martinez. Evan’s next court appearance will be Sept. 12 at 9 a.m. for his bail review.
Many who showed up to the workshop had never done Bhangra before, but they were eager to learn its high-energy moves. Community members Marielle Abell and her friend Abby Laadin were both dancers but neither had tried Bhangra. “We’ve seen videos, and it looks awesome,” Abell said before the workshop started.

It’ll change if they think we are no longer paying attention.” Henegar and four other panelists spoke Wednesday night at the Maurer School of Law as part of First Wednesday: A Survival Guide, which is organized by the ACLU of Indiana. They focused on the recent DACA repeal, the executive order banning travel from seven Muslim-majority countries and other legislative actions from the Trump administration they believe undermine the U.S. Constitution. Politicians pay attention when people stage protests, call and write letters, Henegar said. Henegar said she believes these methods worked this past winter with the travel ban. Protests took place in airports after the travel ban was enacted in January, and Henegar said she thinks they encouraged judges and poli-

If people continue to protest the repeal of DACA in these ways, they could see a similar reaction, Henegar said. “When we use our power as a people, it has an impact," Henegar said. Around the IU community, advocacy for DACA is led by UndocuHoosiers Bloomington. UndocuHoosiers Bloomington president Esmeralda Martinez said the main concern of the group is to gain financial support and proper political representation for undocumented students. Undocumented students do not get in-state tuition and have access to very few scholarships, she said. Within 24 hours of DACA being repealed, the organization had raised $1,000 to help students. According to the organization's Facebook page, funds will go toward scholarships for undocumented students, and in dire circumstances, the funds will help families in imminent risk

tendees had little experience with Bhangra, the energy in the room was intense. Dancers performed many exaggerated hops and side-steps to the beat while executing complex hand movements. “It’s so much fun, but it’s hard to coordinate all of your body,” Hoffman said. And while much of Bhangra is fun, Singh is looking to put a dedicated team together to compete.
There was one more workshop Wednesday, but tryout videos are due Sunday. “Bhangra as a competition is different than what you see as free dance," Singh said. "This is a lot more uniformed. This is where we teach people they have to dance alike because on stage, they're not seeing one person; they're seeing one team. So, it's that constant practice. That's how you get there.”
of deportation. The organization also recently established a scholarship for an undocumented student for housing, Martinez said. “We’re college students,” Martinez said. “We’re struggling to eat right now, but people are donating.” Martinez said UndocuHoosiers Bloomington has also been working to make IU a sanctuary campus. “Advocate for one another, for the greater good of the community,” Martinez said. Undocumented immigrants are not the only ones struggling during the Trump administration, Muslim Student Association president Luma Khabbaz said. Khabbaz said she has never seen Islamophobia and racism as bad as she sees it now. When she was younger, she said she used to think her parents were paranoid when they said someone was Islamophobic or racist. Now, she sees it as a growing problem in America.
“People are emboldened now,” Khabbaz said. “They see our president saying these things and there not being repercussions, so they think it’s OK.” The MSA faced many challenges following the travel ban, Khabbaz said. She knew members who were afraid to go home because they were worried they wouldn’t be able to get back into the United States. One student’s aunt was unable to get through customs to visit another relative even though she had proper documentation, Khabbaz said. Khabbaz said that when something like the travel ban or the DACA repeal occurs, minorities feel they have to justify the problem instead of just getting help. “Before someone can address their concerns, minorities feel like they have to validate them,” Khabbaz said. “They have to spend time trying to prove they are being discriminated against instead of just trying to fix the situation. They are stuck in a defensive rut.”

Residence halls to be studied in US By Rebecca Ellis rebellis@umail.iu.edu | @rebeccae_97
Students at IU are required to live in a residence hall freshman year, and the National Survey of Student Engagement plans to discover what effects living in these spaces has on students. The National Survey of Student Engagement, located at the Center for Postsecondary Research at IU, received a grant of $180,000 from the Association of College and University Housing Officers – International to study how a student's choice of where to live affects his or her performance in college. They are sampling between 1.5 and 2 million students across 75 different uni-
versities. “The residence halls are not just a place for students to eat and sleep,” said Bob Gonyea, associate director for research at the Center of Postsecondary Research at IU. The survey originally began by comparing data of students who lived off campus with those who lived on campus. Gonyea said the researchers soon realized there was not a big enough distinction between those who lived within walking distance of campus and those who lived on campus. The main factors of the survey look at proximity, academic resources and cost. Gonyea said residence halls have made much progress in environment and technology since he was in
college at Michigan State University. “When I was in college, when you signed up to have a roommate, they would ask you if you were a smoker or not,” Gonyea said. Now, Gonyea said, they are looking to create facilities that are most conducive to student’s learning and success. Sophomore Kai Kerr chose to return to Forest Residence Center. She said proximity to her classes and the quality of the room were deciding factors in her return to the dorm. “There’s not much of a commute to classes, so it’s easier to pull myself out of bed in the morning and actually make it to class,” Kerr said. Freshman Madi Hoffman,
who lives in Eigenmann Residence Hall, said the distance from campus buildings was a factor in her decision. “It’s a little bit farther from studying spots, so I study here a lot,” Hoffman said, “I don’t procrastinate walking to other places to study.” Gonyea said the types of students they are surveying is important. Originally, the survey included only freshmen and seniors. With more universities requiring freshmen to live on campus, it is getting harder to study them. So, the survey began to include sophomores. “That’s where we hope more of our variation is going to come in – whether students chose to return to the residence halls or not,” Gonyea said.
Fewer Hoosiers in organized religion By Christine Stephenson cistephe@iu.edu | @cistephenson23
About 70 percent of Indiana residents are Christian, but an increasing number are straying away from churches and organized religion, according to a recent Pew Research Center study. The study showed a decline in interest in traditional organized religions nationwide, especially in Christianity. The percentage of Indiana residents who identify as Christian has decrease by almost ten percent since 2007. “It’s not as popular to follow a religion as it was in years past,” said David Wesner, president of the IU Christian Student Fellowship. “I think not identifying with a specific religion makes some students feel more empowered to make their own decisions.” Many students that once considered themselves Christians did so because their parents raised them that way, Wesner said. Now that students are separated from their parents, many are beginning to question their devotion to
“Today, I think younger people are still finding ways to experience and express their spirituality but in less traditional ways,” David Wesner, IU Christian Student Fellowship president
organized religion. “Generations before us considered Christianity to be the norm, but this isn’t the case anymore,” Wesner said. The study showed that only 63 percent of Hoosiers said they were “absolutely certain" they believed in God in 2014, a 13-percent decline since 2007. Wesner said he does not think this is the case at IU. “I think there are still many students on campus that are religious, just not as many who express it in terms of being part of a church or an
organization,” Wesner said. The Pew Research Center study also examined the increased acceptance of homosexuality among Hoosiers. According to the study, 54 percent of Hoosiers believe homosexuality should be accepted, which is eight percentage points more than in 2007. Doug Bauder, director of the LGBTQ+ Culture Center, emphasized the difference between identifying with a specific religion and having a general faith life. “Today, I think younger people are still finding ways to experience and express their spirituality but in less traditional ways,” he said. “Organized religion and the expression of one’s spirituality can be worlds apart.” Bauder said that as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, he is accepted in his local faith communities. “Coming to terms with my sexual orientation, while not easy, has only deepened my spirituality,” Bauder said. “I choose to express my faith in the context of a
local church because leaders like Dr. King and others inspired me to see social justice as a matter of one’s faith.” The Christian Student Fellowship accepts all people, and Wesner said he would never expect anyone to alter their beliefs solely because of what others believe. “We’re called to love others whether or not we agree with them, but we should not change our own beliefs just to make others more comfortable,” Wesner said. In the end, Bauder said if students want to join a religious organization, then they should not let anything stop them from doing so. “In Bloomington alone, there are a number of faith communities, Christian and Jewish, which embrace all members,” he said, referring to two examples of the many religions in Bloomington. “I encourage students to seek out those communities if they are interested in expressing their faith in an organized community setting.”
released a statement saying the University was disappointed by the Trump administration’s decision, especially given prior statements that seemed to affirm its support of DACA recipients. He said the University would not waver in its commitment to a diverse and inclusive learning environment. “Since the inception of DACA in 2012, IU has seen the many benefits of this program,” McRobbie said. “As they pursue educational opportunities across a wide variety of disciplines, DACA beneficiaries make a substantial positive impact on our campuses and in the Indiana communities they call home.” IU Student Association has not released an official statement regarding DACA, but its president, senior Dan Niersbach, said they would work with Big Ten student government leaders to create a cohesive strategy on supporting affected students. Niersbach said the organization’s current goal is to wait and see what happens at the university level and adapt from there. “Of course, there’s opportunities for IUSA to take it up at the state level and voice our opinions,” Niersbach said. “But, it can be tough for a student government to go up against the federal agenda.” He said the plan for now is to work with cultural centers who have established connections with students, as well as with IUSA Congress. He said the University has worked behind the scenes in the past to make sure students are supported and that McRobbie has been pretty good about speaking up about things he doesn’t agree with politically. In November, McRobbie signed a letter with the leaders of 640 other colleges and universities in support of DACA. Program enrollees are often referred to as “dreamers,” a reference to the DREAM Act. The act was a legislative proposal first introduced in 2001 that outlined a path for undocumented minors to obtain legal permanent residency. The proposal did not pass, but in its legislative lifetime received support from both sides of the aisle, including former Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Indiana. After Sessions’ announcement the Indiana Democratic Party released a statement condemning the decision. The Indiana Republican Party has not released a statement at this time. “Today, the Trump administration turned its back on hard-working immigrant families and students who only know this country as their home,” the statement said. The statement also mentioned the economic contribution DACA recipients make to Indiana. “We know there is much work to be done to fix our broken immigration sys-
tem,” it said. “Subtracting half a billion dollars in GDP from the state’s economy won’t help in that aim, nor will building walls instead of bridges.” College Democrats at IU released a statement saying even though Trump argued that crafting immigration policy was the job of Congress, the president was defying his own responsibilities. “Yet, the president is flouting his own responsibility by abandoning a working policy in hopes that a gridlocked Congress will be able to replace it with comprehensive legislation within six months,” the statement said. “This is unrealistic and irresponsible.” As of March 2017, there were approximately 18,000 people eligible for DACA in the state of Indiana, according to the Migration Policy Institute. Of the 18,000 eligible people, 10,709 of them have already applied and been accepted to the program. Senators Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, and Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, held a joint press conference Tuesday afternoon to talk about the DREAM Act and their plans going forward. Graham said the reason he believed Congress would be successful this time was bipartisan support for legislation. “The question is, ‘Can we come together?’” Graham said. “The answer is we have no other choice.” Durbin, who introduced the original DREAM Act in 2001, said while he supported some border-security measures, Trump’s proposed border wall was a step too far. Bernard Fraga, an assistant professor in the Department of Political Science at IU, said the decision was not surprising. “In order to understand why President Trump made the decision that he did, we have to understand that he made a campaign promise in 2016 to end the DACA program,” Fraga said. He said while some Republican leaders have expressed some willingness to create a similar program through legislative processes, Congress has failed to do so in the past. Frago also said that while it is too early to imagine what a passable bill would look like, he sees a few possible options for Congress going forward. He said there’s a possibility that long-term policy that solves the issue could be passed, but that it’s also likely that Congress passes some form of legislation that leaves DACA recipients in limbo. IU’s Office of International Services has a page on its website with resources for students facing immigration trouble. The page includes a list of immigration attorneys who have agreed to work for free or reduced prices for DACA students. We want to hear from you.

MULLING IT OVER WITH MERM
Self-care should be community care Miranda Garbaciak is a senior in English creative writing.
Whenever we have a bad day, our friends say “treat yourself.” Though it sounds healthy to participate in selfcare, hitting the store might not be the best way to do it. Unfortunately, this brand of self-care has become materialistic and focused on capitalistic ventures rather than on actually helping ourselves. The idea of self-care harkens back to the time of Socrates and Plato who believed that in order to know ourselves and live a prosperous life, we must care for ourselves. Through this, self-care developed into a philosophical luxury. Those who had the time to learn about themselves and care for their own health were elite philosophers and thinkers. It then turned into a basic concept of just taking a few minutes each day to make sure one’s health is fine in order to continue on living life to the fullest. Now, we watch television at the end of a work day, see a commercial that says we deserve the best because we are the best and we find ourselves on our phones two minutes later buying whatever product we saw on TV. With the rise of mental health awareness, along with despair-inducing news becoming commonplace, it’s not hard to believe that people are frantically searching for anything to make themselves feel better. The trend of taking care of ourselves has been capitalized and is now being used against us. We as a society use self-care as a way to excuse spending ridiculous amounts of money on things we don’t need or watching that 16th episode of "Naruto" instead of doing our homework. If you’re okay with the state of your bank account or giving in to manipulative slogans that tickle your spending nerve, then this is all fine. But couldn’t we turn our energy toward something more productive? Amani Ariel from Blavity, a self-described black millennial news outlet, expresses her disdain for the self-care movement in an article urging us to convert self-care to community care. “I question why we are unable to notice how the emphasis on self-care can be dangerous to those for whom it is foreign and impractical,” Ariel says. She doesn’t feel capable of subscribing to the concept of self-care due to its promotion of selfishness and irresponsibility whenever you don’t feel 100 percent. Ariel also points out that self-care promotes taking care of oneself alone, rather than through the help of others. If someone is truly struggling with depression, anxiety or any other mental illness, buying a new lipstick or taking a seven-hour nap isn’t going to fix the problem. Self-care helps in the short term, whereas community care could help in the long term. Specifically, Ariel turns to movements like Black Lives Matter that remind her that she is important and that her problems matter, and it leaves her with a lasting feeling of relief, as opposed to instant relief that goes away just hours later. The idea of community care is to look out for others, even if we can’t look out for ourselves. Through helping others, Ariel believes we can make long-term improvements on ourselves. “We must hurt together in order to heal together. And we must heal together in order to heal,” she writes. Next time you feel like all hope is lost and think takeout will help, take a moment to text your friends and ask how their days were. mmgarbac@indiana.edu

REYNOLDS WRAP UP
Cook County should repeal its tax on sweetened beverages Sam Reynolds is a junior in business.
Cook County, Illinois, home to the city of Chicago, introduced a new sin tax this July: a tax on sweetened beverages. This tax aims to benefit the health of Cook County citizens and, arguably more importantly, relieve Chicago of its debt burden. In 2016, Illinois ranked at 49 out of the 50 states in the country in terms of overall debt. Though this new tax is in line with other sin taxes, it should be repealed. The new regulations tax each ounce of applicable beverages by one cent. Over-
all, the county expects to make over $200 million in 2018 alone. One cent per fluid ounce does not seem steep but would raise the price of a two-liter soda by 67 cents. That's a considerable amount considering two-liter sodas can be purchased for as little as $1 when on sale. At first glance, this tax seems no different than any other sin tax. Illinois currently ranks seventh highest in state sin tax rates and heavily taxes liquor and tobacco products, so Cook County’s move to tax sweetened beverages seems like a logical next step. This tax is anything but logical, however. An argument exists for the
presence of sin taxes. Charging more for unhealthy, habit-forming substances does indeed reduce usage of these products and thus saves on various costs, such as health care, while providing income to the state. Like it or not, these taxes are and always will be a reality in this country. With that said, the sweetened beverage tax in Cook County is not the same as a tax on alcohol or tobacco. This tax has many illogical inconsistencies. For example, diet sodas, which are sugarfree, are still taxed the same as sugar-filled sodas. Fruit juices, which contain very high levels of sugar, remain
untouched by this new legislative measure. Though diet sodas do have some health risks, they are not as harmful to one's health as regular soda and should not be taxed at the same rate. This inconsistency suggests this tax is not focused on the health of Cook County residents but is merely a cheap attempt to lift Chicago from its financial burdens. Cook County’s new tax also holds dangerous implications for future taxation. If sweetened beverages are taxed under the guise of health concerns, then the same argument can, and potentially will, be used for
any unhealthy products such as candy, drink mixes and breakfast cereals or even be extrapolated to condiments like barbecue sauce or ketchup. Chicago undeniably needs to address its growing debt problem, but this sweetened beverage tax is not the solution. Sin taxes are problematic by themselves, and this one, specifically, is illogical and inconsistent and has the potential to create a very slippery slope. Cook County needs to rethink this regulation and choose another route to solve its financial struggles. sareynol@indiana.edu

Stop price gouging Natural disasters can bring out the worst in people
A
n environmental disaster such as Hurricane Harvey does a funny thing to humanity. It lays bare what kind of nature lies beneath our fractured social relations. Watching the storm through television or their social media feeds, many were able, at a safe distance, to feel sentimental about acts of human heroism or selflessness amidst the flooding. Without adequate state or federal assistance to house the displaced and feed the hungry, many responded like “Mattress Mack,” who turned his mattress store into a shelter; Texas mosques gave out hygiene products, water and food; and impromptu rescue boats saved the stranded. However, disaster would be remiss if, at the same time, it didn’t evoke the worst of human tendencies: profiteering, violence and hate. Many businesses engaged in extreme price gouging, a crime in the state of Texas. Some franchises, like Best Buy, blamed zealous store managers. The state’s Attorney General’s office reported instances of a case of bottled water priced at $99, and a gallon of
gasoline at $20. While some can choose to close their mega-churches to flood victims out of spite, economic brutality against those same victims is a different shade of the human heart. The desire to profit from misery is perhaps the most unnatural and regressive relations in which humans engage. Imagine some bloodthirsty manager of a big-box store power-tripping because he has the only drinking water available in a mile radius. No real difference exists between him and a newly displaced family of four. Only the value we prescribe dollar bills or lines of credit in a plastic card create the true expanse between the manager and the family. Those who use a natural disaster as an excuse to price gouge and take advantage of victims are no different than those who use the same disaster conditions to loot businesses. The intentions of using disaster to be immoral are the same. Hurricane Harvey put on a display of human vileness in a way only 2017 can deliver. Chasing a soundbite, a CNN reporter pushed a visibly traumatized
woman to profanity after repeatedly shoving a microphone at her family. We humans do love to gawk at victims of mass disasters a little too much. Self-titled as an “anti-looting patrol,” a far-right quasi-militia called the “Proudboys” waded through empty-looking residential areas with AR-15 rifles. It's unclear what the reasoning behind carrying assault rifles around areas of disaster really was, but it does not exactly conjure the same warm and fuzzy feelings that "Mattress Mack" does. The modern phenomena of Muslimhating fake news stories also spoke up in response to real mosques helping people. A satirical website reportedly ran a story claiming a Texas mosque was refusing shelter to “infidels,” which was of course permeated across the internet. In reality, Texas mosques offered up their shelter and supplies to victims. The untold amount of human decency in Texas appears to be overshadowed by the amount of hatefulness and greed. Whether it be price gouging or far-right militias, this ugliness comes out in a disaster because it is merely reflecting the true face of our society.
A HOFFER YOU CAN’T REFUSE
‘Lord of the Flies’ reboot may do more harm than good Josh Hoffer is a junior in biology.
Despite incredible performances by actresses like Octavia Spencer, Janelle Monáe, Daisy Ridley and Gal Gadot proving — as if it even needs proof — that women and female-centric narratives deserve equal representation in film, women still only received 31 percent of speaking roles in the films of 2016. Representation is even worse for female directors, LGBTQ+ women and women of color. The recent trend of making all-female remakes of classics, however, may be missing the point. Especially when that film is based on William Golding’s 1954 novel “Lord of the Flies.” The novel, which follows the chaos and cruelty of a
group of British schoolboys stranded on an unpopulated tropical island, was written to represent a specific brand of masculine aggression similar to that seen in the Stanford prison experiment or the recent events in Charlottesville, Virginia. Golding said in an interview that the book wasn’t written from a female point of view for two reasons. The first was that he simply didn’t have the authority or perspective, as a man, to write from a feminine point of view. Scott McGehee and David Siegal, the film’s directors, are obviously less hesitant about such a practice. The second reason is, to me, more important. Golding said that one cannot “take a bunch of women and boil them down, so to speak, into a set of little girls who
would then become a kind of image of civilization; of society.” He isn’t implying here that women are not integral parts of society, but instead that they can’t be solely representative of a society that is historically patriarchal, especially a British one founded on colonialism and military conquest. The proposed all-female remake of the novel takes these masculine issues and attempts to transplant them into a group of girls who would have entirely different societal experiences and expectations. As writer Roxane Gay tweeted: “An all women remake of 'Lord of the Flies' makes no sense because... the plot of that book wouldn't happen with all women.” Literally, anything. Literally.
Similar to the whitewashing of films such as “Ghost in the Shell” or “Dr. Strange,” an all-female remake of “Lord of the Flies” simply ignores the cultural context and core social commentary that such a narrative attempts to make. I would be excited to watch a movie about a group of girls in the same initial situation, but the subsequent events should depart from what occurred in the novel so that Golding’s allegory is not miscommunicated or entirely destroyed. In fact, this may be the direction the directors end up pursuing. In a recent interview, McGehee said that the retelling “breaks away from some of the conventions and the ways we think of boys and aggression.” While they do a good job at creating more roles for actresses, these kinds of re-
makes create the unsettling implication that women have no stories of their own and can merely retell ones that men have already told. They become caricatures or nostalgic descendants of preexisting film. Instead, why don’t we allow more women to write and direct their own films and tell their own personal, historical or literary stories? “Hidden Figures,” Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” and the forthcoming “A Wrinkle In Time” show that these kinds of narratives not only exist but can also have profound socio-cultural and political value. I can think of many more stories like this, and I sincerely hope that Hollywood continues to invest in equality. jhoffer@indiana.edu @jhoffer17

Dutra set to bring energy to special teams By Cameron Drummond cpdrummo@iu.edu | @cdrummond97
Special teams are a point of emphasis for IU Coach Tom Allen. After a 2016 season in which IU ranked 102nd nationally in net punting and 94th nationally in kick return yardage, Allen is attempting to bolster the IU special teams unit. This means Allen is playing his best players on special teams. "If you want to be a great football player, you'd better be able to play on special teams," he said. Allen hasn't shied away from this philosophy, using big-name players like senior linebacker Tegray Scales and junior wide receiver Nick Westbrook in special teams coverage during IU's opening loss to No. 2 Ohio State. Of course, the use of Westbrook backfired as the Florida native tore his ACL on the opening kickoff against the Buckeyes, which ruled him out for the rest of the season. However, this doesn't mean Allen will stop putting experienced players on the

field for special teams, even if those players sit atop the IU depth chart. "If you say it's a third of the game and you don't put your best players on that, that doesn't really make
a lot of sense," Allen said about the way IU approaches special teams. Senior defensive back Chase Dutra is a prime example. Dutra was expected to
compete with senior Tony Fields for one of the two starting safety positions. Fields picked up the start last Thursday and played the majority of the game against Ohio State, while
Dutra contributed on special teams with five tackles. Allen announced Monday that Dutra was the IU special teams player of the week from the Ohio State game.

Italy trip helps young Hoosiers bond By Jake Thomer jjthomer@indiana.edu @jake_the_thomer
The IU women's basketball team arrived in Rome on Aug. 3., and Coach Teri Moren wouldn't have been surprised if her team wanted to get to a hotel and catch some sleep. The team had just spent nearly a full day traveling across the globe for their nine-day trip to Italy. But, just the opposite of Moren's expectations happened. As soon as the Hoosiers stepped out of the airport, they were ready to see whatever they could. A full day of sightseeing ensued before the team even reached its hotel. “I was most impressed with our players, the young people, because they wanted to embrace that opportunity,” Moren said. With only 11 players currently on the IU roster and just nine eligible to play this season, Moren will need her players to embrace the opportunities that are sure to come their way in the 201718 season. Traveling to Italy together and playing three games against local teams was the perfect start to building bonds and camaraderie, Moren said. With just four returning players and seven newcomers, including five freshmen and two transfers who will sit this season out, there are a host of new faces in the IU program. “They were already a close group just from watching them work this summer

in the weight room, and it just added to the chemistry," Moren said. "It added to their closeness.” Moren said the games IU played in Italy, which were three blowout wins for the Hoosiers, weren’t too important aside from how it was the first time her team played together in its current incarnation. But she did note that the 10 practices IU was able to have leading up to the trip were crucial in laying the foundations for the Hoosiers’ new players. Senior guard Tyra Buss, a two-time All-Big Ten FirstTeam selection, is expected to lead IU along with senior forward Amanda Cahill. The duo combined for 33 points per game last season, nearly half of the team's total scoring. The only other returning Hoosiers are junior forward Kym Royster, who scored
4.2 points in 12 minutes per game, and sophomore wing Bre Wickware, who scored 1.2 points in 5 minutes per game. But Buss said the fivemember freshman class, which includes five-star recruit Jaelynn Penn, gets along well and should be able to fill the void left by the nine players who graduated, transferred or otherwise left the team. With center Linsey Marchese, forward Alexis Johnson and three versatile guards in Penn, Bendu Yeaney and Keyanna Warthen, the freshmen can fill all five positions on the court. “We just have different players that can do different things,” Buss said of the freshmen. “They’ve been working really hard, and I think they’re going to impress a lot of people.” Yeaney, a 5-foot-10 guard from Oregon, drew praise from both Buss and

"I had a lot of reps between all four special teams," Dutra said. "In my opinion, I gave 100 percent on every play." Dutra's special teams prowess isn't new, either. He twice earned IU special teams player of the week distinctions in 2016 and also blocked a punt while on the punt coverage team. "His role on special teams is huge for us," Allen said. "His energy and his focus and his execution was what it needs to be." As a fifth-year senior, Dutra brings 31 games of experience to both the IU secondary and the IU coverage teams. Being with the program for five years has also taught Dutra about the emotional side of the game and how to recover after showcase games, as IU will have to do this week against Virginia. "You have to learn how to play the big games and then flush it out of your system," Dutra said. "You have whole new schemes, whole new checks and defenses you gotta run. It's not very hard for me, but some of the younger guys, you have to teach them along the way."
Moren for her athleticism. During IU’s final game in Italy, Yeaney went out for the opening tipoff against a player five inches taller than her and won the jump, Moren said. The team won’t begin official practices until early October, but the trip to Italy helped the Hoosiers lay the groundwork for the upcoming season. Buss said she’s embracing the leadership role that she’s already been working on as the team’s point guard for the past few seasons. And Moren, who could understandably be worried about losing five seniors after last year, is looking forward to what her tight-knit squad can do on the court this season. “I’m very optimistic about this group,” Moren said. “You can’t replace experience, but I think we’re more athletic than we’ve ever been since I’ve been here."
IU women's soccer has a unique opportunity to accomplish two things it has yet to do this season: defeat a ranked opponent and win two games within 48 hours. This weekend marks the last nonconference games of the season for IU and the midway point of IU's seven-game road trip. IU is 2-1 away from Bill Armstrong Stadium, after defeating Western Michigan and Vanderbilt before losing to Memphis. “I thought we had an opportunity to put a couple away on Sunday,” IU Coach Amy Berbary said. “We need to work on more of our situational finishing and keep putting these kids in position to compete.” First up for the Hoosiers will be a revenge game against No. 24 SMU. Last season, SMU came from behind to defeat IU, 2-1, in the Hoosier Challenge Cup after the Mustangs took their first lead with just 13 minutes left in the game. SMU is 3-0-2 on the season after defeating Sam Houston State 4-1 last Monday. Junior forward Vanessa Valadez leads the Mustangs in scoring with three goals on the season. “SMU, they’re a really good team,” Berbary said. “We’re looking forward at getting another shot at those guys. It’s another great opportunity for us to be playing a ranked opponent.” After SMU, IU will play the
IU (3-3) at SMU (3-0-2) 8:30 p.m., Friday, Dallas North Texas Mean Green on Sunday afternoon. UNT will be host to IU with a confident offense. In the Mean Green's last game against Houston Baptist, the team scored its most goals in a single game since 2015. Junior forward Taylor Torres and freshman forward Berklee Peters have each scored three goals this season for UNT.
“SMU, they’re a really good team. We’re looking forward to getting another shot at those guys.” Amy Berbary, head coach
If the Hoosiers defeat both SMU and North Texas, they’ll be 5-3 heading into conference play. After this weekend, IU will begin conference play at Michigan State and Michigan. “I think it’s gone pretty well,” sophomore defender Meghan Scott said. “Usually, it’s hard to win on the road, and I think we’ve done a pretty good job beating Western and Vanderbilt. Those are big wins for us. Unfortunately, we lost to Memphis, but we still played well so we have a lot to look forward to the rest of the season."

was 3 and lives here with her mother and two younger siblings, both of whom were born in the United States. She is an environmental policy and pre-dental double major and is enrolled in 21 credit hours with hopes of finishing school early, she said. Immigration attorney Christine Popp explained legal matters behind DACA and what steps students affected by DACA should take in the upcoming months. Congress failed to pass any law to permanently protect children who immigrated to the United States legally, but the administrative program, DACA, protected them from deportation. “These people have lived here most of their lives, they work and they contribute to society,� Popp said. “DACA protects people that are American in every way except for a piece of paper.� After Popp explained the history behind DACA, stu-
dents began asking legal questions about what they should do if they or people they know are affected by DACA. Popp explained that DACA was officially repealed Sept. 5 but will be phased out in six months, and she encourages everyone affected by DACA to reapply for renewal by Oct. 5. Popp said that although DACA ended, students should not lose hope that a law will be passed to permanently protect people affected by DACA. “I’m not hopeless,� Popp said. “This year there is a little more momentum, and there is more bipartisan support. I’m very optimistic about this. What we need is people to advocate for this.� Students shared ways to advocate for DACA and offered tips on how to contact government officials. After students explained ways to email and text congressmen and senators, most students pulled out their phones and sent messages right away. “Tell them your story,� Popp said. “Tell them why it
matters to you and why they should vote for something. It seems like it won’t make a difference, but it will.� During the question portion, one student asked Popp about the politics behind ending DACA. Popp said she could not explain why, but she believes that xenophobia and racism were large influences, although not all people against DACA are racist. Counselors were there to let students know emotional help is available for them. Counseling and Psychological Services therapist Enrique Silva explained that there is a fee for counseling for Dreamers, but there are waivers to apply for, and CAPS is currently not turning away anyone from DACA that may need help. “It’s gonna be a long haul,� Silva said. “If you think that these six months are going to be hard, we’re here. Even if things change and get better, know that you can come talk to us.�
she was “crimson through and through.� Jacob Leubbehusen, Yoder’s fiance and boyfriend of six years, said Kelley provided her with a way to help people who couldn't get their heads above water. “She never wanted to be rich or powerful or CEO of a Fortune 500 company, like you’d think so many Kelley kids want to be,� Leubbehusen said. “She wanted to get into a company like that so she could change that system, so it wouldn’t be ben-
efiting a couple of people at the top of the chain. It would benefit everybody.� Leubbehusen also said she was never the type of person to sit still. “She was a big believer in not wasting time,� Leubbehusen said. “She never took naps.� He said she would often inspire her friends and roommates to get out and do anything rather than just sit around. “I think for a 21-year-old to say that is pretty out of
place because you usually hear that from grandparents who can’t go out and do things," Leubbehusen said. "And for our generation’s norm, it’s completely normal to be like ‘Oh, I don’t feel like getting out of bed today.’ That wasn’t her.� The family asked that, instead of donating flowers, people donate to the Megan Marie Yoder Award for Sustainable Business scholarship fund or the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center.

uzzled New escape room traps Bloomington By Kathryn Jankowski kjankows@umail.iu.edu @KathrynJanko56
The new escape room opening in Bloomington, The Code and Key Escape Rooms, allows players to experience scenarios like recovering a stolen artifact or acquiring a top-secret encryption. The Code and Key Escape Rooms are the creation of Alex and Kate Burch, a married couple and 2014 and 2015 IU graduates, respectively. The couple said they had been to a few escape rooms and found them interesting, so they decided to move back to Bloomington from Washington, D.C. to start their own. By their definition, an escape room is an interactive game. “It’s a lot about being in an immersive experience that is outside of your daily life,” Kate said. “It’s a lot like being in a movie.” “You have a mission or goal of some kind,” Alex said. “Ours is actually not to escape the room but to complete the task you have been given, like finding confidential secret documents or to find something that has been stolen.” They said the escape room experience spoke to a lot of their interests, like strategy games and group bonding activities. After experiencing a few rooms, they said they were able to identify things they found fun about the different rooms and incorporate them into their own designs. The Escape Room will be located in

Naomi Watts (left) and Laura Harring (right) star in "Mulholland Drive." The movie was written and directed by David Lynch and came out in 2001.
‘Mulholland Drive’ mystifies Jesse Pastemack is a senior in film studies.
Few artists are as good at creating unsolvable mysteries as David Lynch. The recent finale for “Twin Peaks: The Return” demonstrated he is still just as content to let audiences figure out things for themselves as ever. But few of his works are as delightfully inscrutable as the 2001 mystery “Mulholland Drive.” “Mulholland Drive” tells many stories, but at first, it seems as though it is primarily
Fountain Square Mall, and they said they are excited about the accessibility of the location. “We are excited about that location because it is really close to downtown and walking distance from campus,” Kate said. In hopes of attracting larger groups, the escape room is made for up to six people, they said. They will also be working on some mobile escape games, like puzzle boxes. “We will take these boxes to a location,” Kate said, “This way, a party or business can use them for team building.” Alex and Kate said they have many dreams about how the room will affect the community, especially inter-generational groups. “Different ages will notice different things,” Alex said. “You’re not going to take your grandma to laser tag, so this is an activity that is accessible for all ages,” Kate said. Kate and Alex said they think there is not one type of person that is great at escape rooms because everyone processes them differently. The Code and Key Escape Rooms does not currently have a specific opening date, but the couple said they are hoping to have it ready in late September or early October. "There is so much to do in Bloomington, but we think puzzles and problem solving is great new way to connect people in a way that they have never been connected before," Alex said.

Lilly Library's Curator of Puzzles Andrew Rhoda talked to the Indiana Daily Student about his unique job working with mechanical puzzles, which are those with interlocking pieces. Rhoda talked about the "Jerry Slocum Mechanical Puzzle Collection," which consists of more than 30,000 puzzles and 4,000 puzzle books that were donated by mechanical puzzle historian Jerry Slocum. Indiana Daily Student: What do you do as a puzzle curator at the Lilly Library on Indiana University’s campus? Rhoda: That means I manage our collection of mechanical puzzles. Our fall title of the collection is the "Jerry Slocum Mechanical Puzzle Collection." We have over 30,000 mechanical puzzles. In addition to working with Mr. Slocum, who is our principal puzzle donor, I also process the puzzle collection and answer reference questions regarding the puzzle collection. I’m sort of an all-around librarian for the mechanical puzzles. IDS: How did you become the puzzle curator?
Rhoda: I started here, at the Lilly, as a cataloger. I was the Auxiliary Library Facility cataloging specialist. In addition to cataloging books, that position is responsible for managing the deliveries from the ALF. My role when I started as the ALF cataloger was to work with Mr. Slocum’s book collection in addition to helping the previous curator Andrew of puzzles, Jillian Rhoda Hinchliffe, in sending puzzles to the ALF and how they would best be stored. I moved up as a cataloger in the technical services department here, but I’ve always worked on Mr. Slocum’s book collection. That’s where I really learned about mechanical puzzles. IDS: Are students allowed to handle the puzzles in the Lilly Library? Rhoda: Mechanical puzzles are really hard to understand if you see them behind glass. You can sort of understand what is going on with a mechanical puzzle if you look at it behind glass and SEE RHODA, PAGE 9
Q&A: Bloomington’s premier emcee By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@umail.iu.edu @katiechrisco
Brad Wilhelm has been a comedy emcee in Bloomington for more than 15 years. He has emceed at the Comedy Attic since 2008 and was the director of Rhino's Youth Center for 22 years before retiring last year. We spoke to Wilhelm about his time as an emcee, his favorite comics and how it feels to be considered a staple of the Bloomington community. Indiana Daily Student: How and when did you get started emceeing? Wilhelm: I started being a comedy emcee in 1996 for the Comedy Caravan at Bear’s Place. That was a weekly show booked by the Com-
edy Caravan out of Louisville. It was a one-nighter out of Bear’s Place, and it had been running since ’86. So it was the longest-running onenight comedy show in the country for the longest time until it closed. IDS: When did it close? Wilhelm: I left for the Comedy Attic in 2008. I think it closed in 2010. IDS: Do you emcee for events outside of the Comedy Attic? Wilhelm: On occasion, when I’m asked. I mean, I’ve got a job and family and roots here in Bloomington now, and you know, I’m getting old in the years. So, I don’t seek out that stuff. But, like, when friends of mine who are comedians want me to do stuff, like last fall, Maria Bamford asked me to host her show at the Murat Theatre, or I guess
the Old National Centre now that it’s called, up in Indianapolis. Or if Jimmy Pardo asks me to come do something, I’ll do it. But I don’t seek it out at all. I do a lot of emcee work for local things. You know, for fundraisers and that kind of stuff. I’ve been doing this a long time. We’ve done the circle. But that’s just acting as a general host for things and keeping things moving, auctions and that sort of thing. IDS: What’s the difference between that type of emceeing and doing emcee work for comedy shows? Wilhelm: Well, normally, if you’re working for a charity, you have to be very careful. I’ve worked things where you go, and certain ideas might pop into your head, but there’s a lot of self-censoring that
has to happen when you’re working for a charity. IDS: What is your favorite part of being a comedy emcee? Wilhelm: The variety of people I get to work with. I mean, at the Attic, I get to work with the best comics from all over the country, all different sorts of styles and genres. That’s my favorite part, just watching other people work. And for me, those 10 minutes that I get up front satisfies that little performance urge that I’ve got in me. The high school theater kid, I get that out. And that’s all I really need, I don’t need to pursue a Broadway dream or anything like I had when I was 21. I still get that little bit and get to meet some of the most amazing comics in the world.
IDS: Did you ever venture into stand-up comedy? Wilhelm: No, I mean, when I was at IU, theater was my second major. The whole idea was for me to go to Chicago, study in Second City, get in Second City and then get on “Saturday Night Live.” And then in movies, I’d be huge and then retire by the time I was 40. But life changes and Bloomington kind of sucks you in. You know, especially when you have limited talent like me. It became obvious very quickly that Bloomington was the place for me, and I wasn’t going to be a big-time comedy star. And that’s fine. I’m really happy the way it all worked out.

Turn your kitchen green Rachel Rosenstock @rachrosenstock rarosens@indiana.edu
The push to be “green” and cut down on waste in all parts of daily life has become unavoidable in 2017. And with good reason: We’ve all recently witnessed how climate change exacerbated the effects of Hurricane Harvey as well as the fires rampaging along the West Coast. I understand how daunting the task of keeping our Earth healthy can seem when pushed on individuals by the news media and our government. Fortunately, so many simple habits that are easy to incorporate into daily life, even ones that you may already be doing, can help contribute to the bigger picture of environmental conservation. And, of course, a great place to start is the kitchen. First, if you’re not recycling, what are you doing? Drop everything and request a bin from your sanitation service or find the nearest collection center. The City of Bloomington Sanitation Department provides recycling pickup free of charge on your regular trash day. It’s one of the easiest and most effective ways to cut down on your waste. Second, ditch plastic bags and paper towels as often as you can. I’m guilty of still relying on both of these more than I would like, but the little pinch of guilt I feel in my heart every time I toss one in the trash is strengthening my distaste for these products. Have a plethora of kitchen rags on

hand, ready to mop up liquids or wipe down the counter, and try to reach for reusable containers more than plastic bags. One thing I love to do, because of its duality as environmentally friendly and fashion friendly, is supply my own reusable grocery bags. I own way too many cute canvas tote bags, and they are the perfect solution for cutting down on using plastic bags. In France, I would fold one up and carry it in my bag to have on hand just in case, as supermarkets don’t give out bags for free under French law. California has also passed a similar law that I hope to see other states follow, even though it is not without controversy. As I mentioned in a previous column, a great way to
cut down on food waste is to freeze items that would normally have a short shelf life but can easily be reheated to the same quality as if they were fresh. One such item is bread, which can go bad in just a few days if not properly stored. I’ve been using the same loaf for a couple of weeks now, and it tastes just the same as the day I bought it. Freezing fresh produce that might have been tossed soon and putting it in smoothies or soups ensures you don’t waste any money on expensive fruits and vegetables. Stepping outside your own kitchen, I want to highlight some Bloomington businesses doing their part in the effort to be eco-friendly. Just to name a few: Finch’s Brasserie,
which supports local farms and Slow Food USA, an organization fighting for animal, human and environmental rights. Bloomingfoods is a coop grocery with several locations around town that offer local, sustainably made products for all – with no membership necessary. Another fun way to support the local farming community is by going to the Bloomington Community Farmers' Market held every Saturday from April to November. I’ve barely scratched the surface on businesses in Bloomington that are making efforts to go green, and there are many out there doing a lot for the community and environment. Join in their efforts and take small steps to be ecofriendly in your daily life.
the puzzles with the exception of the ones that are in conservation. That was very important to Mr. Slocum when looking for a place to donate his collection. He wanted it to have that handson aspect. He wanted people not only to have hands on puzzles to work with but wanted the majority of his collection to be usable. IDS: Are there any mechanical puzzles that you find really interesting? Rhoda: I tend to gravitate
towards interlocking solid puzzles. I think a little more spatially, and I find those more interesting. Some of them are easy, but I actually try to find ones that are a little more complex. IDS: What would you like people to know about your job and the "Jerry Slocum Mechanical Puzzle Collection"? Rhoda: I just want people to know that the collection is available for people to come and see. Both in the Slocum
Room, with our hands-on collection, and in the reading room if there’s a particular type of puzzle people are interested in seeing. The Slocum Room and the reading room are open whenever the library is open.
to solve this movie’s many mysteries. “Mulholland Drive” is, in part, so hard to unravel because of its shifts in genre. At various times, it is a thriller, a comedy and a surrealist satire on the darker side of Hollywood. The fact that Lynch fulfills and subverts all of these generic conventions is a testament to his under-praised skills as a writer. In addition to the great writing, this movie is a fantastic testament to Lynch’s skill as a director. The images that he creates with cin-
ematographer Peter Deming add a beautiful layer of mystery to the city of Los Angeles. The performances in “Mulholland Drive” are also excellent. Naomi Watts gives a smart performance as Elms that dramatically changes later in the film. Justin Theroux is endearing and silly as a director named Adam. “Twin Peaks” regular Michael J. Anderson shows up to make this movie even more bizarre. This movie is best experienced for the first time without spoilers. But I do
advise new viewers to be on the lookout for a climactic plot twist in the third act. I will only say that my original interpretation of this plot twist ended up being the exact opposite of the public's most popular theory. But the glory of “Mulholland Drive” is that its rich use of symbolism and transcendent strangeness enable as many interpretations as there are people. Lynch's ultimate success is that he creates a world of mystery in which intrepid viewers can live for as long as they wish.

like Tiffany Haddish on a regular basis? Wilhelm: Yeah, the great thing about the Comedy Attic is that it is now one of the most sought-after comedy clubs for comics in the country. Acts like Tiffany Haddish are a regular occurrence. It started because when “@midnight” was on on Comedy Central, you could almost call it “The Comedy Attic show” because every night there was at least someone on that panel that had been or was going to be playing at the Comedy Attic. It was kind of crazy. IDS: So, you get to meet and hang out with these people? Wilhelm: You work with them. You’re in the green room with them. You work out stuff together, what the show’s going to be like. Yeah, so I can say I literally worked with Tiffany Haddish. IDS: Over the years, do you feel like you’ve built up an emcee persona? Wilhelm: Oh, I definitely have. The guy who’s onstage, it’s me, but it’s not quite me. It’s an amped-up version, a little different. And then the persona changes, of course, depending upon who I’m emceeing for, who the audience is. If it’s a cleaner comic or a family kind of comic, it’s going to be different than if it’s Hannibal Buress, you know? You just kind of have to read the room and each week, I try to do something a little different or add something from the week or whatever. But you really have to know who your audience is. The goal of the host is not to be the funniest person on the show. The goal of the host is to set the room up, focus everyone’s attention, give them the rules, relax them as best as possible and then keep the show flowing. If I do something or say something that’s not that funny, well, it doesn’t matter because they’re there to see the headliner, the feature act. My job is just to keep the show going. The show isn’t about me. People always ask, “Do you ever get nervous?” I’m never nervous
when I’m up there because it’s not about me. IDS: How would you describe your stage presence? Wilhelm: I’ve often been introduced now for the past 15 years as a “lovable and affable host,” and that’s kind of how I look at it. A little bit of an asshole, but mostly lovable. IDS: What makes a good emcee? What qualities do you have that make you good at your job? Wilhelm: Well, I think you do have to be personable. Most comedy emcees, or hosts, depending on the vernacular you want to use, are want-to-be comics themselves, and they’re younger. So there’s a certain urgency to what they do, and there’s a tendency to make it about them instead of about the show. There’s a real, distinct difference between being a host and being a comic, and that’s the thing that I like to try to remember. I mean, I can try and come up with something funny and that’s great, but it doesn’t matter. Younger comics sometimes are bad emcees. They’ll come in and be like “OK, hey everybody, hey, how’s it going? OK, great, who’s got a birthday?” You know, that kind of thing. You just want to punch that guy if you see him. At the same time, be frank, look people in the eye and let them know what the rules of the show are. Make them feel at home and then get out of the way. IDS: How does it feel to be considered kind of a staple of the Bloomington community? Wilhelm: I’d be lying if I said it didn’t mean something to me. I love Bloomington. I fell in love with it when I was in high school and visited campus for the first time. I came from a small Indiana town, and Bloomington seemed like the big city to me. For someone to say that I’m a Bloomington institution or that I have something to do with the fabric or character of Bloomington, that makes me very, very proud. I’m not sure I agree with it, but it’s been said to me before. It does; it means a lot. This article has been condensed and edited for clarity.
