Bickford’s lawyer files new motion From IDS reports
Triceten Bickford’s attorney filed a motion Monday in Monroe County Court for a psychologist to examine Bickford for mental disease. Bickford was arrested Oct. 17, 2015, when police reported he shouted racial slurs at a Muslim woman, grabbed her neck and shoved her face into a table. The victim’s 9-year-old daughter watched as the victim’s husband and a passerby pulled Bickford off of her. Police arrived as the two responders held Bickford to the ground. He tried to kick out the windows of a police squad car and bit an officer’s calf. Bickford’s blood alcohol content was later revealed to be .195 at the time of the attack. Bickford was a sophomore studying psychology but was expelled from IU last semester when his story spread to national news. Bickford, currently out on bail, is facing seven charges, including two counts of battery by bodily waste,
battery resulting in bodily injury, intimidation, strangulation and battery against a public safety officer. In court Monday, he appeared in a black suit and tie. He said nothing as his lawyer filed the motion. In October 2015, attorney Katharine Liell filed a motion for a change of venue because of publicity that had developed since Bickford’s arrest. Judge Teresa Harper granted their motion Nov. 23, 2015. Liell and the prosecutors have until May 1 to decide the county from which to choose jurors. Friends and family of Bickford told the Indiana Daily Student in November that the attack was out of character and surprising. The woman whom Bickford attacked told the IDS in October she doesn’t hate Bickford and is praying for him and his family. Bickford’s next pre-trial conference is scheduled for 3 p.m. March 24.

As Alie Wilson talked part-time jobs with a MoneySmarts team member, her young daughter Anya ran around exploring tables and snagging candy and pamphlets. Wilson, an IU senior, balances her studies while taking care of her daughter. Although she said she has a solid grasp on her personal finances, events like the MoneySmarts WinterFest can provide good opportunities for her future. “My daughter’s biological father lives so far away,” Wilson said. “It can get hard to make sure there’s enough for all the bills after paying for travel and other necessities.” Wilson, who studies at the School of Public Health, heard about the WinterFest and decided to come to the resource fair Monday at the Indiana Memorial Union. She wanted to see what it had to offer including information on payment plan services to semester-based job opportunities. She comes from a military family, and said she bounced around frequently in the past, but now she said she wants to settle down with her daughter and find a job in Colorado, preferably in hospitality, tourism and event management. “In the process of finding

a job, it’s always good to see what I can do to make paying off school easier,” Wilson said. Wilson, along with other students of several disciplines and financial backgrounds, attended the WinterFest. The program included a Resource Expo and a talk headed by financial planning expert Peter “Pete the Planner” Dunn. Dunn was joined over Skype by Scott Wise, CEO of Scotty’s Brewhouse, a successful Indianapolis-based restaurant and sports bar chain. Throughout the event, students had several opportunities to enter free giveaways and play games to win prizes, including several scholarships. They also talked to job recruiters and financial service representatives about ways they can make and save money while receiving an education. “Money is not a very exciting topic to talk about,” Morgan McMillan, assistant director of financial literacy at IU, said. “We wanted students and attendees to engage in a more fun environment by incorporating games, prizes and more.” The event was organized by the Office of Financial Literacy and the MoneySmarts team, which is made up of a group of IU students who SEE FINANCE, PAGE 6

Sophomore Kendall Noel said he doesn’t mind eating cheap food if it helps him afford summer music festivals. Multi-day music and arts fests like Coachella, Bonnaroo and others released their official lineups earlier this month. “I would rather eat ramen for weeks on end and be able to go to festivals in the summer,” Noel said. Noel and junior Ashton Moody said they started going to music festivals together in 2015. They’ve already bought tickets for at least two festivals this summer, Electric Forest and Coachella. “Festivals are the highlight of my summer by far,” Noel said. Still, the two students said the high admission price isn’t easy to afford. “We definitely save up really hard throughout the year,” Moody said. “I work now and most of my money usually goes to that.” Moody spends about 30 hours per week at her job at the IU Health
Bloomington Hospital. Noel said he regularly works in the summer to help pay for tickets. “I mean, we say we’re not going to do any more, we need to cut back, but then like the lineups start coming out, and we’re like, ‘Oh my god, we have to make it there,’” he said. The two tried to conserve their funds when they went to last year’s Electric Forest, Noel said. “We brought a ton of food so we wouldn’t spend that much money on food stands and stuff,” he said. For Moody, festival preparation begins in the fall. She said she uses websites like Reddit to see pictures and popular opinions of past festivals, and these help her determine which ones she wants to attend. She said she’s been to Bonnaroo, Spring Awakening, Lollapalooza and Electric Forest in recent years. She likened her festival experience to a vacation. “You make memories and friends there that you just, like, keep forever,” she said. Noel said as soon as he leaves a SEE FESTIVALS, PAGE 6

IU will try to win at Wisconsin for first time since 1998 By Grace Palmieri gpalmier@indiana.edu | @grace_palmieri

IU hasn’t won inside the Kohl Center since 1998. The streaking No. 19 Hoosiers will try to change that tonight and make it 13 straight wins as they face the Badgers in Madison, Wisconsin. “They do a tremendous job getting to the foul line and getting the ball inside,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. “We have to do our work early defensively and be committed to the whole possession.” It’ll be the second time IU has seen Wisconsin this season. Their first meeting was a 59-58 Hoosier win in which senior guard Yogi Ferrell scored 19 points and freshman OG Anunoby had a breakout game,
scoring 11 points while shooting 3-of-3 from beyond the arc. That same senior leadership and ability for young players to step up has been key to the Big Ten season for the Hoosiers. Since the first Wisconsin meeting, they have defeated opponents by an average of 24 points per game. Crean has said over and over it’s a matter of focus in practice — improving on something every day. And most importantly, it’s transferring that from the practice floor to the game. “Our guys are really locked in to getting better throughout the week,” he said after a win against Northwestern on Saturday. “And the best thing is when they can make adjustments inside of the game because they know it could be better.”

Anunoby and Juwan Morgan, another freshman forward, have become defensive specialists in certain situations this year. Against Northwestern, Morgan came into the game in the second half to help defend the Wildcats’ center Alex Olah, who was hurting the Hoosiers in the post.

Indiana University Ph. D. candidate Basia Andraka-Chirstou presented "Why is Medication-Assisted Treatment for Opiate Addiction Under-Used” on Monday evening at the Poynter Center. This talk explored the underuse of medication-assisted treatment, as well as Medicaid limits, criminal justice stigma, physicians' knowledge and more.
Opioid treatment underused By Megan Jula mjula@indiana.edu | @meganjula
Prescribing other drugs to a recovering drug addict may initially seem counter-intuitive. “It is a topic that has invoked a very heated discussion,” said Basia AndrakaChristou, a practicing attorney licensed in Florida and a Ph.D. Candidate in the Indiana University Maurer School of Law. Andraka-Christou is researching the underuse of evidence-based addiction treatment for her dissertation. Over the course of her studies, she has found medication-assisted treatment is the most effective treatment for opiate addiction according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the World Health Organization and the American Society of Addiction Medicine support. Opiates are a class of drugs that include heroin and prescription medications like Oxycodone. Of the 21.5 million Americans 12 or older that had a substance use disorder in 2014, 1.9 million had a substance use disorder involving prescription pain relievers and 586,000 had a substance use disorder involving heroin, according to a study conducted by the American Society of Addiction Medicine. According to the study, 18,893 people in the United States died from overdoses related to prescription pain relievers in 2014, and 10,574 people died of overdoses
related to heroin. On Monday, AndrakaChristou presented about the underuse of medication-assisted treatment, or MAT, for opiate addicts as a part of The Poynter Center’s Healthcare Ethics Seminars. MAT combines Food and Drug Administrationapproved addiction treatment medication with extensive counseling. Despite its effectiveness, it’s not adequately used, AndrakaChristou said. Many roadblocks stand in the way of MAT including stigma, limited Medicaid coverage, restrictive laws, lack of knowledge among physicians and a history of abstinence-only treatments, Andraka-Christou said. About 50 percent of drug courts nationwide completely ban MAT, she explained, and she has seen the same numbers in Indiana. “It’s really underused and heavily stigmatized,” she said. Meanwhile, deaths from opiate overdoes have quadrupled in the course of the last ten years, she added. For example, attention has been brought to Austin, Indiana, she said, where an HIV outbreak fueled through intravenous drug use ravaged the small town last summer. But while the problem of opiate abuse increases, drug-based treatment is often unavailable to addicts in Indiana’s drug courts. “They are told you are not really sober, or that it is just another drug,” AndrakaChristou said. Instead, she found in
interviews with over 20 Indiana drug court judges, that primary treatments are a program through Narcotics Anonymous and counseling. “You don’t have a physician working in a drug court,” she pointed out. The three medicines most commonly prescribed for MAT – methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services – aren’t without their flaws, she acknowledged. For example, the first two drugs have addictive properties that can be abused, though the risk is low. Because of this, they have a considerable street value and could be sold by addicts. “In a lot of what I have found, addiction treatment is not really an area of ideals,” Andraka-Christou said. “This is a very messy grey area sort of situation.” A key issue is a shortage of trustworthy providers, she explained. She knows of five providers of the MAT drug buprenorphine in Bloomington, three of which are cash only even though the drug is covered through Medicaid. One had a waitlist the last time she called. Almost half of counties across the country lack a buprenorphine provider, Andraka-Christou said. “In Indiana I do not see a very big push in supporting MAT from the state level,” she said. She sees some steps toward MAT expansion,
“In a lot of what I have found, addiction treatment is not really an area of ideals. This is a very messy grey area.” Basia Andraka-Christou, attorney and Indiana University Maurer School of Law Ph.D. Candidate
however. Last year, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said it would cut funding from drug courts that refuse to offer MAT. Though drug courts are primarily state funded, it’s a sign in a change of attitude, that could potentially bode well for the future adoption of the treatment she said. Attendees at the talk included IU faculty and students, an intern for Rep. Todd Young, R-Ind., and recovery coaches from Centerstone, a provider of behavioral health services in Bloomington. Chris Abert with the Indiana Recovery Alliance said the talk both answered and raised new questions about why MAT is so limited. IRA is a Bloomington organization that provides services for the health and well-being of its members, including injection drug users. Addiction treatment should be on an individual basis, Abert said. He sees firsthand the stigma of drug treatment to treat a drug addiction in his work. “But it’s lessening,” he added.
The IU Student Association election commission is preparing for this semester’s elections by announcing its timeline and changes for the year. To be eligible to run, students do not need to have been previously involved in IUSA. Candidates must have at least a 2.5 GPA and either live in the district or be a member of the school they wish to represent. Sophomore Savannah Wormley, head of marketing for the commission, said it is important for students to know they can all participate. “We want everybody to know this is not exclusive,” Wormley said. “If you feel like you would be a good representative for students, think about running.” At its final voting meeting of the fall, IUSA passed numerous changes to the election code. Although most were minor, senior Adam Kehoe, chair of the commission, said a few were significant. One change is a budget increase for executive tickets, from $3,000 to $4,000 to accommodate for inflation, Kehoe said. “Hopefully, it will give tickets the opportunity to raise more awareness about the election,” Kehoe said. “We thought it’d give them an opportunity to be more creative.” The commission also changed sections in the code regarding donations and fair market value. Last year, an executive ticket was disqualified because they did not claim all of their donations as fair market value. Amplify for IUSA won the election, but was disqualified because it failed to include branded T-shirts and a miniature pony in its financial statement, going $959.60 over budget. After this incident, the commission clarified all candidates have to claim any donations they receive for fair market value, not the amount they actually receive, Kehoe said. Those running can be elected in two ways: through an executive ticket or on their own as a congressional representative. An executive ticket
consists of four people who run together — president, vice president of administration, vice president of Congress and treasurer. Those running for a spot on Congress run individually. “The duty of Congress would be like the voice of students and to represent a specific school or a specific constituency like in dorms or living arrangements,” Kehoe said. Although elections are not until April 6 and 7, those who wish to run have work to do throughout the semester. The commission will hold an election call-out meeting at 7 p.m. Feb. 18 in Woodburn Hall, room 007. “This is kind of the opportunity for anyone who’s interested in running at all to be in IUSA,” Kehoe said. “They’d get very basic information and ask questions and meet us.” Once the call-out meeting is over, applications will be released. Anyone who wishes to run must fill out an application and turn it in by March 9. On March 31, all those running on an executive ticket will participate in a debate. During the debate, all tickets will be given a chance for opening and closing statements. In between, they are asked the same questions where candidates usually focus on policies they hope to implement, previous experiences they’ve had and opinions on campus issues, Kehoe said. Founded last year, the election commission is a group of 10 students, undergraduate or graduate, who are responsible for facilitating a fair student election. Kehoe said one of the big reasons for having the commission is impartiality. “We serve as the overarching rule-making body for the election,” Wormley said. “We make sure the election process runs smoothly.” Wormley said one of the commission’s big goals is to have greatervoter turnout and more involvement by the student body. Last year, around 8,200 students voted. The commission would still like that number to increase, Kehoe said. “We’d love to get that number up,” Kehoe said. “It’s a big increase from years past, but we’d still love more voters.”
IUSA Election Timeline Feb. 18 At 7pm: Election call-out meeting; this meeting is for anyone who is thinking about running for either IUSA Congress or on a ticket (president, VP of administration, VP of Congress, treasurer). All important information, dates, rules, etc. will be discussed at the meeting. March 9 Applications are due; applications are released at the call-out meeting. anyone who plans to run for a elected office must fill one out and turn it in by this date.

Faculty approves international committee By Eman Mozaffar emozaffa@indiana.edu | @mcbnggins
The Bloomington Faculty Council is creating an International Affairs Committee in response to faculty dissatisfaction, the inevitability of globalization and an increase in problems faced by international students on campus. The council voted unanimously Jan. 19 to approve the Long Range Planning Committee’s proposal of the group. The next step will be to find the ideal people to fill the new committee and to begin the dialogue necessary to tackle crucial issues. “We sought to form a committee that promotes an ongoing conversation between the faculty council, administration and local executive groups, but especially on an international mission,” said Alex Tanford, professor emeritus of law and BFC executive. The proposal is headed by Tanford and Bryan McCormick, who are co-chairs of the Long Range Planning Committee. Tanford and McCormick are responsible for developing and implementing structural changes within IU faculty and administration and for presenting their ideas to the BFC for approval. “I think it is crucial that the BFC create this committee because IU — its student body, its faculty, its reputation — is increasingly international,” BFC president-
elect Rebecca Spang said. During the last meeting, members discussed how the International Affairs Committee is a good response to concerns on campus. Faculty members were disappointed in the lack of an open dialogue during the creation of the School of Global and International Studies. The administration proceeded with plans to erect a new school without consulting faculty. The council realized it was because there wasn’t anyone to consult on international issues, and their latest initiative aims to fill that gap. In addition, Tanford said the administration wanted to combat the increasing struggles international students face. “There have been many reports of hostility toward international students, particularly those who were Asian and Muslim,” Tanford said. “Also, students are not given adequate resources to succeed in a new environment.” International students are required to take mandatory English courses, Tanford said, but the classes typically fill up before most receive the opportunity to enroll. Many students go multiple semesters without instructive assistance in English and this hinders performance in the rest of their coursework throughout the rest of their school careers. One of the committee’s

primary goals will be to address in a new way the issues international students face. Tanford said they have to carefully survey the classroom experience of these students and act on their behalf when they are discriminated against or
disadvantaged. After gathering facts and solidifying the major talking points of the International Affairs Committee, Tanford and McCormick have begun a search for a cohesive group of professionals to fill various positions on thecommittee.
These experts should be able to provide valuable input toward the issues faced by international students. Although Tanford himself is not an expert in international affairs, he said he hopes his proposals will grow into an initiative that will ultimately make IU
more conversationally open and efficient. “The Bloomington campus has seen countless structural changes in even the past 10 years,” Tanford said. “This is a natural transition in the right direction so we can meet the growing needs of our institution.”
Kelley Professor reaffirms bias in standardized tests From IDS reports
New findings from IU Kelley School of Business professor Herman Aguinis suggest hundreds of thousands of college students have been affected by varied predictions of standardized test performance. Aguinis’ recent study, published in the Journal of Educational Psychology, is drawing attention to the contextual reception of tests like the SAT and GRE in different institutions, according to an IU press release. He and study coauthors argued admission policies, grading approaches and academic support are different at each school, raising questions as to how useful and fair standardized tests can be as a prediction of success among gender and ethnic groups. “Our main implication
is that tests do not work in the same way across colleges and universities, and we have found that hundreds of thousands of people’s predicted GPA based on SAT scores were under- or overestimated,” Aguinis said in the release. Aguinis’ paper “Differential Prediction Generalization in College Admissions Testing,” coauthored with Steven A. Culpepper of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Charles A. Pierce of the University of Memphis, comes at a time when many universities and colleges are making the SAT optional for admissions. “If the prediction is not the same, that means that you can benefit or suffer based only on your ethnicity or gender because your performance is expected to be higher or lower than it will be, which means
you’re more or less likely to be offered a scholarship or you’re more or less likely to be offered admission,” Aguinis said in the release. The most recent study follows a “groundbreaking paper” the three researchers coauthored in 2010 in the Journal of Applied Psychology, according to the release. The 2010 paper “received a great deal of attention” because it found College Board testing had the potential to be biased and its methods of revealing biases in testing were deficient. Two research scientists from the College Board, which administers the SAT and GRE test, responded to these findings in 2013 in a paper also published in the Journal of Applied Psychology. Krista Mattern and Brian F. Patterson, the two College Board researchers, ques-

tioned the 2010 paper because its research was based on simulation and not data, according to the release. In Mattern and Patterson’s report, data from more than 475,000 students at more than 200 colleges from 2006 to 2008 compared the relationship of SAT data and first-year gradepoint averages. In publishing this data, the Journal of Applied Psychology required Mattern and Patterson to release College Board data to the public for the first time, according to the release. Aguinis and his coauthors based their latest research on this data. “The first thing we did was to do what they did,” Aguinis said in the release. “And we found that our results are exactly like theirs — on average — across 200 colleges.” Five different reviewers evaluated Aguinis’ latest
report, and the researchers were asked to submit nine versions in addition to their original manuscript before publication. “This paper was scrutinized like no other I have ever seen before,” Aguinis said in the release. Aguinis said in the release standardized tests can have bias in any particular context and a majority of colleges showed contextual differences. “Hundreds of thousands of students have probably been denied admission or denied scholarships just because of their ethnicity or gender when standardized tests are central in the admissions process,” Aguinis said. “But not against blacks or against women necessarily. It goes both ways.” The recent study compared more than 200,000 men and women respectively,
and nearly 30,000 black and 300,000 white students from 176 college and universities from 2006 to 2008, according to the release. The paper is about “predicting performance for all people,” Aguinis said in the release. He said the SAT and similar tests are not irrelevant, but they need to be understood within context to obtain the best measures of students’ future academic success. “The bias we found sometimes benefits one group and some other times the other,” he said in the brief. “You need to understand if the test is predicting performance to the same extent across groups. Otherwise the selection process may be unfair for members of certain groups, and the implications are critical for people’s future.” Carley Lanich

Local business throws 1920s mystery party By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman
In a large, bare space made mostly of concrete and steel, filled with barrels and distillery equipment, IU graduate Josh Johnson stood before a crowd of about 20 people, wearing a 1920sinspired white button-up with suspenders. He began to describe a scene to his audience. It is 1925 in Paris, and you have been invited to an elegant soiree at a Parisian Cabaret, Johnson said. Beautiful burlesque dancers tease the audience while big bands play and sirens sing. Bright bulbs illuminate the shadows as dancers twirl and twist up a grand staircase. Crowded around café tables, American ex-patriots philosophize with European revolutionaries. It is a hotbed of the intellectual elite, cultural trend-setters and fancy socialites. “The problem is, one of you is a murderer,” Johnson said. Johnson was leading a murder mystery party Thursday through his business, Mid by Midwest Murder Mysteries. The event was hosted at a local distillery, Cardinal Spirits. The name, Mid by Midwest, is a play on Alfred Hitchcock’s “North by Northwest.” Each party is an interactive game where players assume the identity of a custom character and work as a part of a team to solve the crime and win prizes. No one reads from a script. It’s more like a cocktail party, Johnson said. “It’s like live action ‘Clue,’ and you get to dress up and drink,” said Bloomington resident Mandy Izzo, who has attended two of Johnson’s murder mystery parties. “It’s actually really fun. You don’t know what to expect.” While the murder mystery event Thursday was only open to ages 21 and older, people of all age groups can participate in some of their other events, said Stephanie Johnson, Josh Johnson’s wife.

Players’ ages have ranged from 14 to 86, she said. Players can also dress up for the theme. Some of them are very dedicated, she said. Many women wore flapper dresses. Along with his 1920s costume, one of the players drew a mustache on himself with a sharpie. Josh Johnson said he and his wife invented their murder mystery party concept by playing games at home with their friends. Josh Johnson, who started writing the murder mysteries in May 2014, said he then moved to incorporating them as a creative solution for local businesses looking to host a wider variety of events. “For example, if they were looking to bring out a particular demographic at a particular day or time, we just sort of thought what would work for that ... and how we could work together as a community with those businesses,” he said. The Cardinal Spirits location has also helped the Mid by Midwest events become what they are, he said. “The environment adds to the feeling of the murder mystery,” Josh Johnson said. “The drinks are great too, hopefully like what the characters would have actually drank.” When most people think

He believes what sets Mid by Midwest Murder Mysteries apart is players are not just reading a script, but get to act out the character. “We want to engage people with all interests,” Stephanie Johnson said. “Some people are super into the game part, like deductive reasoning, and finding out who the murderer is. Then you have people coming, dressing up and playing this character, so they’re much more into the theater aspect.” Mid by Midwest Murder Mysteries has something for everyone and the interactive nature is what makes it, Josh Johnson said. “You’re really a part of it,” he said. “It’s this community scenario where everyone is into this. You get to work together on a team to solve this crime. You become this character. What you do, what questions you ask can all change the outcome.”

State pumpkin shortage affects campus food sales By Anne Halliwell ahalliwe@indiana.edu @Anne_Halliwell
More than three months after first reports came out, this year’s pumpkin shortage is becoming known on campus. Sugar & Spice, located on the main level of the Indiana Memorial Union, has stopped serving pumpkin bread temporarily, said Holly Hudson, regional operations manager at the IMU. Reports came out in October advising consumers to stock up on canned pumpkin for Thanksgiving. Heavy rain during the spring made for later planting times and a smaller overall crop. Libby’s Pumpkin, a Nestle subsidiary that corners more than 80 percent of the canned pumpkin market across the nation, said in October although they had enough pumpkin to make it through Thanksgiving, the low harvest meant stock going into the new year would be tight. Roz O’Hearn, Nestle’s Corporate and Brand Affairs director, said the company shipped the last bit of the 2015 pumpkin in mid-November. The brand will not have any more pumpkin to sell until after the first harvest of this year. Pumpkin bread has been unavailable in Sugar & Spice for about 10 days. A can of pumpkin is about four times as expensive as it was in years past, given this year’s poor pumpkin crop, Hudson said. “Instead of raising the cost of that product, we are just implementing seasonal
favorites,” Hudson said. This isn’t the first time menu items have rotated, Hudson said. When the cost from suppliers reaches a more feasible level, the dining location plans to bring the pumpkin bread back. Currently, Sugar & Spice is selling cherry ribbon bread to play into Valentine’s Day promotions, Hudson said. Hudson said anyone who’s ordered the baked good in the last week and a half has simply ordered something else when told it’s not available. “No one’s really missing it any more than if another menu item was removed,” Hudson said. In November, the price of a can of Libby’s pumpkin was about $1.79. Currently, a Google search lists Walmart pricing at $2.88. O’Hearn said in an email the midsummer rain reduced the number of pumpkins that grew on Libby’s Morton, Illinois, farm. Early estimates by Libby’s manufacturers put the dearth at about one-third of the crop. O’Hearn said the number was actually closer to 50 percent. “We’ll plant seed again this spring and begin the harvest in August; 2016 pumpkin should appear in stores by late September/ early October,” O’Hearn wrote. “Until then, we will not be surprised to hear of shortages reported around the country.” Mark Freeman of Freeman Family Farms said the weather — and thus the soil — in June was “abnormally cold and wet.”
“If you put the seed in the ground and it’s cold and wet, the seed will just rot,” said Freeman, whose Bloomington farm houses a pumpkin patch. Freeman waited about ten days past normal planting time but said the gourds would be grown by the time harvesting season came around. Like Freeman, Noreen Dollinger, of Dollinger Family Farm in Channahon, Illinois, said the inclement weather during planting season also delayed her crop. There are two kinds of pumpkin — canning pumpkins, which are fleshier and pale and meant to be eaten, and ornamental pumpkins, the kind typically carved into jack-o’-lanterns for Halloween, Freeman and Dollinger said. Freeman and Dolliner grow the second kind of pumpkin, which means for Dollinger, “the value of a pumpkin on Nov. 1 is pretty low.” “We had to buy pumpkins for the first couple of weeks, and the price was 25 percent higher than normal,” Dollinger said in an email. “This was mostly because people that planted at the normal time got drowned out and large spots produced nothing.” Dollinger normally plants her crop in June but held off until July 3 — a risky move, when her pumpkins generally need 100 to 110 days to mature. “Farmers are the biggest gamblers out there to throw their money in the ground and hope for the best,” Dollinger said. “We are planning on a great crop next year.”
Inmate dies Friday after virus spreads at Putnamville Correctional Facility From IDS reports
An inmate of the Putnamville Correctional Facility died Friday after succumbing to a virus that spread through the facility, which is located in Greencastle, Indiana. An additional nine offenders are under “close observation” at Terre Haute Regional Hospital, and about the same number are under observation in the jail’s medical unit, according to a press release from the correctional facility. The inmates were presenting “progressive viral-like symptoms” at the
time of the correctional facility’s statement, released Sunday. Several of the patients were experiencing severe shortness of breath and symptoms of pneumonia, including fatigue, joint aches, sweats, cough and sore throat, according to the release. One inmate was on a ventilator for support. The Indiana Department of Corrections is working with the Indiana State Department of Health and Center for Disease Control to identify the source of the outbreak.
The release stated that safety precautions are being taken to protect the other inmates and staff. The Putnamville Correctional Facility is one of nine medium security facilities run by the Indiana DOC. The average daily population was 2,489 in 2015. The campus is comprised of about 2,500 acres. The DOC will release more information when it becomes available, according to the release. Visitation at the facility has been cancelled until further notice. MK Wildeman

Uber is the Wal-Mart of logistics Uber has helped consumers with quicker service and lower prices but is now poised to wipe out smaller competing services, such as Btownmenus. How does a rideshare compete with food delivery? The company announced last week it will be rolling out UberEATS to ten major cities, according to a Wall Street Journal article. Sadly, neither Bloomington nor Indianapolis are on that list. With the overwhelming success Uber has found, it’s likely their food delivery business will take off. Fast delivery sounds almost as good as free pizza. I can’t wait for UberEATS. This new service is a huge benefit and fits the millennial generation’s consumption pattern. According to a Forbes article, the service guarantees curbside delivery in less than 30 minutes. The app has been beta tested for the past year and a half in Toronto, according to Wired Magazine. It allows customers to order pre-set meals for prices lower than if they had ordered them directly from the restaurant. This allow Uber to enter into a crowded field of food delivery. UberEATS will compete against services such as GrubHub and Seamless. However, these competitors still have a chance to hold onto their market share by offering a wider selection of restaurants from which to order. The UberEATS website only has 13 restaurants in Chicago. Toronto, however, has a more established market base and over 100 options. Even if Uber’s first foray into food falls flat, their di-

versified background will allow the company to take another crack at the market. This model brings in revenue from multiple sources: the partner restaurants and consumers ordering the food. The takes advantage of Uber’s million-driver fleet. Uber has also been accepted into local markets. When Walmart spread, local small businesses closed down. They were the image of corporate America taking over the nation. Yet, despite the initial refusal, many customers were eventually swayed by lower prices and smiling faces. Uber has no such barriers. The largest barrier for UberEATS will be convincing consumers to try the app for the first time. Many young people are already familiar with Uber — either using the ride service during a night out or coming home from an airport. But the older generations that aren’t used to smartphones in their hands, will take more time to try the delivery service. However, it seems the app’s simple interface and secure payment function will reassure the more cautious consumer. If the test markets are successful, Bloomington may have another delivery service in town. This makes hour-long wait times for Taste of India a thing of the past. As a hungry college student, I can’t wait to try it out. wkiepura@indiana.edu @wkiepura

Unrealistic and inefficient drug laws When I talk with people about their opinions on drug laws, I am rarely surprised at what I hear. Many of the adults I talk to grew up during the intense anti-drug propaganda of the ’70s and ’80s, when the government began to crack down in response to the irresponsible hippie movement of the ’60s. These people often cite false evidence in support of drug laws. For example, many note drug laws could decrease drug use and lessen harm from addiction and irresponsible behavior while under the influence. They compare drugs to alcohol, saying the reason we have so many alcoholrelated accidents is because alcohol is legal. My response is, “Let’s make alcohol illegal.” But of course prohibition didn’t work in the 1920s, and it wouldn’t work today. The same is true for drug laws. In fact, if one is to consider the overall scope of drug harm, it’s clear that more harm comes from America’s response to drug use rather than from the drugs themselves. Don’t get me wrong — heroin is addictive. Marijuana can lead to apathy and laziness. But the numbers are interesting. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cite research that says nicotine is as addictive as heroin. So you may wonder why nicotine is legal. The CDC says smoking accounts for one out of every five deaths in the United States each year, while drugs account for almost

one in every 55. But this number does not take into account whether the drugs are legal or not. You may think drug laws help keep this number so low. But they actually don’t. Take Portugal, for example: they have decriminalized personal amounts of all drugs. They also report proportional drug use and related death rates far below those of the U.S. They have stood alongside addicts to provide rehabilitation and treatment, rather than further destroying their lives by imprisoning them. This leads many people to consider why we would fund an outdated approach to drug use when it’s clearly inefficient. Some people imagine those billions of tax dollars are better spent on rehabilitation programs, repaying our debt or, anything else. Instead of trying and failing to control what citizens ingest this way, the government should focus on providing factual information so we can make an informed decision for ourselves. They should also make it a point to continue enforcing routine safety laws in order to protect people from the crime that can result from irresponsible drug use. zhunsuck@iu.edu @ZacHunsucker

Trying to quit fossil fuels WE SAY: Do as Obama says, not as Obama does We can’t quit fossil fuels. A little more than a month after the end of the 2015 Paris Climate Conference, the Obama administration has announced plans to allow offshore oil and gas drilling in the Atlantic in an area that stretches from Maryland to Georgia. The Guardian recently speculated Obama might use his final year as president to “forge ahead on his environmental agenda.” But the president isn’t pushing for stricter environmental protections or serious efforts to switch to renewable energy sources such as wind or solar. He’s caving to pressure from the fossil fuel industry. It is as though we learned nothing from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. After an offshore oil rig owned by BP exploded in the
Gulf of Mexico in 2010, marine life was decimated. Effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill continue to be seen today. Marine animals and humans alike still suffer from health problems. We do not want to see another disaster off the coast. In Kure Beach, North Carolina, a small town depends on marine life and tourism of the environment for its economic survival. Nearly the entire town opposes offshore drilling, and one resident accused Obama of “flip-flopping” on the issue of offshore drilling. If President Obama is serious about addressing climate change, he must lead in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. His “Clean Power Plan” aims to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 32 percent between 2005 and 2030.
But we find Obama’s approach contradictory. We realize the U.S. can’t and won’t quit oil and other fossil fuels overnight. We find it hard to reconcile Obama’s opposition to the Keystone XL Pipeline with his support of offshore drilling in this region. This is especially hard to believe given that the area has been protected from such ventures since 1984. According to the Guardian, the American Petroleum Institute estimates the area may produce the equivalent of 6,000 barrels a day of oil and natural gas by 2026. But don’t we want to reduce our carbon emissions by then? Our addiction to fossil fuels must be addressed at the state and local levels as well. Indiana Gov. Mike Pence has made no secret of his
love of coal. In a 2014 opinion piece published in the Indianapolis Star, Pence railed against the Environmental Protection Agency and “an onslaught of regulations from Washington” because it increases the cost of electricity. However, this board thinks it is important to keep in mind the EPA exists for a reason. Fossil fuels are major culprits behind climate change. They can cause massive environmental damage and serious health problems in humans and animals. Instead of opening up over half of the Atlantic coast to dangerous new oil and gas drilling, we could invest more heavily in solar and wind energy. Like any addict, this country seems to be having a hard time kicking the habit.
ONLY 90 PERCENT SERIOUS
When candidates have similar views Front-runners for their political parties, Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump, have extreme political positions. Many see this as an indictment of the two ruling parties and party departure from moderation with the result that many Americans are caught party-less in the middle. But this is not the case. If you look at the official platforms of the two parties, their differences are actually becoming less obvious and more semantic, especially as the Republican establishment is forced to warm to certain etablished liberal social policies. Both parties support progressive, non-flat tax systems
and the only difference is the acceleration of rates through tax brackets. Both support a strong military and an increase in the Department of Defense’s budget. They both support reducing the global warming effects. They disagree on the cause and magnitude. Both are against the legalization of marijuana and other drugs. These are a few ways in which they are similar, and while they still have differences, the idea that Democrats and Republicans are drifting apart is wrong. The real reason for the difference in the platforms of the candidates is the broken and unfair primary system. About 35 percent of
people self-identify as Republicans and about 30 percent Democrat. The other 25 percent are independent. Right now, Trump is polling at close to 30 percent of selfidentified Republicans, according to RealClearPolitics. The most conservative 30 percent of American conservatives, or about 9 percent of all Americans, support him. The issue is not that 9 percent of the population supports him, but instead why he is the mostly likely candidate to represent half the country when he holds such fringe support. A primary process reduces the field to just one candidate per party and allows liberal and conservative fringes

a disproportionate amount of influence on choosing our next president. New Hampshire, a very liberal state, and Iowa, a very conservative state, have their primaries first, seting the entire election’s tone. These factors cause the appeal from fringe voters. It might seem like the candidates represent a variety of views. But know what really causes those differences and what they really mean. anderbri@umail.iu.edu @MusingofBDA

During his time as an undergraduate student at IU, he was a pole vaulter for the track and field team. He said he experienced some personal financial struggles, but he managed them after learning how to live like a student. “As a student athlete, I acted as a liaison between the athletics department and academics,” Batemon said. “A lot of athletes have trouble with money after they go professional, and I want to fix that before it becomes a problem.” Batemon gives presentations with his team on topics ranging from employment to student loans. He also facilitates oneon-one appointments with students who express a particular need for assistance. “People from all backgrounds can benefit from the work that we do,” Batemon said. “I know what it’s like to be in situations that aren’t the best, but we can help you understand the financial problems and get through them.”

Before the conference season, they were stagnant running in transition, but since their mindset has changed, the flow from defense to offense has become easier, Crean said. In playing Wisconsin tonight, Crean said the Badgers have grown in confidence since the two teams’ first meeting.

An IU win will keep it perfect in the Big Ten — and would be Crean’s first in Madison in his eight seasons as coach.

Amy Cozad and Jessica Parratto stay in synch as they dive off of the 10-meter platform. The two have a combined 15 national titles as individuals and are training together for the synchro competition of the Olympic Trials.
Amy Cozad is the No. 1 diver in the country. Jessica Parratto is No. 2. They compete next to each other every day in IU’s Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatic Center, each hoping to earn one of two spots on the U.S. Olympic team. INDIANAPOLIS — The No. 1 diver in the country stands on the pool deck, waiting to hear her name called. She’s made it to the national finals and leads the pack heading into the last five dives. Amy Cozad walks around the deck of her home pool, where she first learned to dive and where her college coach at IU recruited her years ago. Only this time, the stakes are much higher — Rio is months away, and she doesn’t want to fall one spot short of the Olympic team like she did four years ago. Before making the 10-meter climb up, she thinks about the dive she’s performed a million times before. Aggressive takeoff. Tight tuck. Streamline entry. Tiny splash. Lyrics by her favorite rapper echo over the loudspeakers, muffled but audible. I fly with the stars in the skies I am no longer trying to survive I believe that life is a prize But to live doesn’t mean you’re alive. She’s about to fly. * * * Standing a few yards away from Amy on the pool deck is the second-ranked diver in the country, her teammate and IU sophomore Jessica Parratto. Every day, Amy and Jess walk into the same pool, practice the same dives, take instruction from the same coach with the same goal in mind. There are exactly two spots on the U.S. Olympic team in their event, and they both want one. Amy is an eight-time national champion, while Jess has seven national titles to her name. But the rankings offer no advantage on the long road to this summer’s Olympic Games in Rio. Amy and Jess are just two of six Olympic hopefuls training in Bloomington under IU Diving Coach Drew Johansen, who coached the U.S. team in London four years ago. Jess was recruited to IU by former diving coach Jeff Huber but stayed for Johansen, while Amy returned to Bloomington a couple years after graduation to train for the Olympics. From performing up to 100 dives a day, to technique training at the dry-land facility, to weight training and conditioning, diving is a full-time job for the two. This season Jess decided to take an Olympic year, similar to a redshirt season, so she could invest her time in training. Whether or not she makes it, though, will unfold in a matter of seconds. Each time they step onto the 10-meter platform, the goal is to make this dive better than the last. It’s making the judges believe what they just saw was perfect, even if, in reality, there were ten little mistakes. But perfection isn’t possible. “We don’t even say that word,” Jess said. Instead of evaluating the divers with a score of 1-10, Johansen uses a golf scoring system. Par is good. Birdie is above average and eagle is nearly perfect, a rare mark. Bogey and double bogey signal a miss. The idea is that each diver is being judged against themselves and no one else. But when your biggest competitor is standing next to you, it’s hard for the two not to break that rule. When Jess watches Amy nail a dive, or vice versa, it’s motivation to be better.
“It’s real as a heart attack,” Johansen said. * * *

“It’s all about consistent training and repetition, doing it until it’s the best it can be.” Drew Johansen. IU Diving Coach
Amy can’t get through a meet without Nicki Minaj, and today is no different. “She’s my idol,” Amy says. “She was like, ‘I’m not just trying to be the best female rapper. I’m trying to be the best rapper of all time.’ That’s what I’m trying to do. I’m trying to break records. I want to be the best.” I wish I could have this moment for life, for life, for life Cause in this moment, I just feel so alive, alive, alive Amy performs a back 2 ½ somersault, 1 ½ twist first. She earns 5’s and 6’s from the seven judges — not as successful as she’d hoped. When Jess begins her climb to the top of the 10-meter tower, she moves quickly up the stairs to loosen her nerves, the steps of the dive running through her head. The nerves don’t come from fear, though. She likes the fear factor of free falling — it’s why she started diving in the first place. She needs to finish in the top two at Nationals today, just like she will need to at the Olympic Trials this June. Rather than get ahead of herself — the World Cup is a couple months away, followed by the trials and possibly the Olympics — she stays in the moment. “I kind of want to think about it,” she says, “but I can’t.” Jess walks to the end of the platform. One, two, three, four steps forward. Then she turns with her heels hanging off the edge, turning away from the podium that sits right across the pool. She raises her arms, as if to make a “T,” and counts down to herself. Deep breath, knees bent, explode. And she’s falling. Seconds later, her fingertips break the water’s surface. 7’s and 8’s flash onto the screen. * * *

She used to follow her mom to practice every day. It didn’t matter that she was too young to dive. Jess was always hanging out at the pool where her mother, Amy, coached at a diving club in New Hampshire. When she started swimming lessons, Jess’s eyes would drift to the other side of the natatorium. She wanted to jump off one of those boards. “She was a little bit of a daredevil,” her mom said. At age eight, Jess competed in her first diving competition with her mom as her coach. Being coached by mom had its drawbacks. When all the other kids didn’t show up to practice, Jess still had to. When she was tempted to talk back to her coach, there were consequences. “I got kicked out of practice a lot,” Jess said. But diving never came home with them. In the house, Amy was Jess’s mom. At the pool, she was her coach. Amy didn’t want to force either of her daughters into anything they didn’t want — the minute they stopped loving it, it wasn’t worth it. “Sometimes I’d come home and say, ‘I’m gonna quit,’” Jess said. “OK,” her mom would reply.

Visiting poet to read, lecture By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601
University of Sydney professor Kate Lilley will present her poetry and research at a lecture at 4 p.m. Thursday in Woodburn Hall 100. Her work discusses issues such as feminism and gender imbalance, Office of the Provost communications specialist Joe Hiland said. “She definitely looks at transnational issues and work that crosses different genres, specifically from a feminist perspective,” Hiland said. “That’s been her main scholarly focus here.” Lilley is the inaugural recipient of the United States Studies Centre-Indiana University Creative Arts Fellowship.
She is visiting IU to conduct research at the Lilly Library on its collection of work by Mary Ellen Solt, who was an IU professor of comparative literature and director of the Polish Studies Center. The public lecture and poetry reading will involve a Q&A session. It will be followed by a reception at 5:30 p.m. in the Lilly Library. Lilley’s lecture will detail her study of Solt’s poetry, correspondence and other work. Solt was known for the 1966 poetry collection “Flowers in Concrete.” She also edited the poetry anthology “Concrete Poetry: A World View.” Solt was a well-known poet in the mid- to late-20th century, Hiland said.
The Lilly Library’s collection of Solt’s work includes her correspondence with poet William Carlos Williams. Hiland said Solt’s letters will bring interesting insight into the poet’s work. He is familiar with Lilley’s work, Hiland said, and he is excited to hear Lilley’s poetry reading. “I love her poetry,” Hiland said. “She has this sort of minimalist approach. It’s interesting, because I don’t personally see many elements of concrete poetry in the work that she does, but I’ve had a few interesting conversations with her about the ways that people like Solt and other concrete poets have informed her work.” Hiland said he likes how Lilley approaches topics like feminism in her poetry.
“She addresses issues of gender in straightforward but also nuanced ways in her poetry,” Hiland said. “I think a lot of that comes out of being a female poet and scholar in an academy that has traditionally been dominated by men.” Hiland said he also hopes the event will open the world of poetry to the wider campus and highlight the archival material at the Lilly Library. “I think it says a lot that we have both a former professor who is such an amazing figure in the scholarly and poetic world and that we have an institution like the Lilly Library that preserves these amazing materials and is so well known that someone halfway around the world is willing to travel here to conduct research,” he said.

KINSEY CONFIDENTIAL
Dreams lead to confusion over sexual identity I’m a girl, but I keep dreaming about a girl at my school. She’s really pretty and I sometimes spy on her, but I’m straight. But when I dream about her, I dream that I talk to her and when I do I feel so happy. And I dream about her repeatedly. Why is that? There’s a lot we don’t understand about dreams, be it dreams about sexual or romantic feelings, or other kinds of dreams about things like traveling or flying or showing up late to school or work. Dreams operate in our unconscious experience which makes it challenging to understand how they intersect with our waking lives, if at all. It sounds like your main confusion is why you, as a young woman, would be dreaming about another young woman when you otherwise feel you’re heterosexual. There are many possibilities. One possibility is you are mostly attracted to boys but there is something about this particular girl that you feel drawn to. You can identify as straight but still have feelings for this one girl. Then again, you might feel that attractions to both boys and this particular girl make you feel more comfortable identifying as bisexual. Or if at some point you notice that you only feel romantically or sexually attracted to girls and not boys, you might identify as lesbian. You’re the only person who gets to decide how you identify your sexual orientation, and it may even change from time to time throughout life. Some people identify the same way throughout life while others use different words or labels to describe their sexual orientation or attractions over time. Maybe you’re less concerned about your label and more wondering what this means about what to do. Just because you dream

about someone doesn’t mean you have to act on your feelings, although it sounds like you already have some kind of interest in this girl in your waking life because you look at her often. Sometimes people are just in awe of other people’s beauty. Maybe you’re attracted to her, maybe you’re not. It’s okay to admire someone for their beauty or charisma or because of the feelings they awaken in you. The fact that you think about her often while awake may translate into frequent dreams about her, and that’s okay. It sounds like you enjoy looking at her and your dreams bring you happiness. If you’d like to learn more about women and sexual feelings or attractions, you might like reading the book “Sexual Fluidity: Understanding Women’s Love and Desire” by Lisa Diamond.

A test for Crean to earn the elusive win at Wisconsin
JAMES BENEDICT | IDS

Hoosiers minimizing turnovers By Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94
The Hoosiers have incorporated a new practice technique recently. In the midst of IU’s 12game win streak and IU’s 7-0 Big Ten start, IU Coach Tom Crean has allowed his team nine turnovers a game. For every turnover IU commits past nine Tuesday at Wisconsin, players will be forced to run during the next practice. “The bottom line is these guys are too good to be giving the ball over or back like that, and that’s going to be one of the biggest things going to Wisconsin,” Crean said. “We give them far too many opportunities to score here off of our own mistakes.” Specifically, the Hoosiers have to run what are called 17s. These are when each player lines up and runs
sideline to sideline at least 17 times in 65 seconds. “I think one time we ran two,” senior guard Yogi Ferrell said. “We bought off one, but we had three at one point in one practice. So it was a tough day.” In IU’s 89-57 win against Northwestern on Saturday, the Hoosiers committed 10 turnovers. This meant that despite the 32-point win, they still owed a 17 during practice Monday. While IU steadily outplayed Northwestern, there’s no guarantee this will always happen. The Hoosiers shot more than 50 percent from the field and 46.4 percent from behind the arc. They can’t always shoot that well, Ferrell said. “We can’t turn the ball over and have other teams scoring off our turnovers, because one night we could be cold and not everything’s going for us and if we give up those turn-
overs, it could be hard for us to win,” Ferrell said. But the focus isn’t entirely on not turning the ball over, Crean said. It’s more based on running the offense well. He’s focused on the Hoosiers moving the ball well and being active. If they are doing these things, the turnover numbers will decrease. It really all comes down to making good decisions. “We just keep talking about the decision making and keep putting them in situations in practice where they have to do different things,” Crean said. “A lot of three on four, four on five things when we can, and that stuff helps them. But, again, when you’re cutting and moving without the ball like that, it shouldn’t be that hard.” This is especially important against Wisconsin, Crean said. In IU’s 59-58 win against Wisconsin on Jan. 5, the Hoo-
siers did struggle offensively. They also struggled holding onto the ball. The Hoosiers turned the ball over 19 times during the game. IU struggled to find a rhythm offensively, so its superior shooting numbers were neutralized. IU shot 48.8 percent from the field and 41.2 percent from behind the arc. Comparatively, Wisconsin shot 41.3 percent and 25 percent in those same areas. So the 17s are really a way to maximize the Hoosiers’ offensive ability. If the focus is there in terms of decision making and offensive movement, IU will be at its best, Crean said. “We really, really just need to be accurate, right?” Crean said. “If we’re accurate with our ball movement, then we’re going to get good looks. If we get to the glass, we’ve got a chance to get the second shot.”
It’s been discussed year after year. IU can’t win in Madison, Wisconsin. IU Coach Tom Crean hasn’t been able to do it. Kelvin Sampson and Mike Davis didn’t either. Bob Knight didn’t in his last two seasons. IU hasn’t won in the Kohl Center since its first time there: Jan. 25, 1998. In the 18 years since, Bo Ryan has been the man to task the Hoosiers 11 times. He was often kryptonite for Crean’s teams in Madison, even when IU was the higher-rated opponent. There was plenty of drama along the way. Crean was ejected against Wisconsin in 2010. There was the 2013 awkwardly short handshake between the two coaches, and the time Ryan called Crean out for caring too much about a Big Ten Player of the Week award. And despite all the buildup between Crean and Ryan, that hurdle is one Crean and company will never be able to fully leap. Ryan retired in December 2015. Now, IU and Crean will be looking to finally win at Wisconsin, but against new coach Greg Gard. During a week in which people are writing grandscale pieces on how Crean is changing his ways and it’s resulting in great success — and it is — Crean will have another true test of proving this growth by defeating a rookie head coach in as tough of a place as any. I keep trying to spot the games that could trip the Hoosiers up. Maybe it will be Michigan on Feb. 2. But on the road against Wisconsin is as good of a test as any. They’ve lost to teams such as Milwaukee and
IU guard still recovering from injury By Teddy Bailey eebailey@indiana.edu | @TheTeddyBailey
Sophomore guard Jess Walter has always known about concussions. She’s talked with teammates, but never quite understood the injury. Not until she suffered one herself on the day of Hoosier Hysteria. After the Hoosiers’ practice Oct. 24th, 2015, the 6-foot guard became an expert on the frustrating, boring and lingering symptoms that she dealt with for weeks. Walter’s recovery off-thecourt ended around winter break, but her on-the-court recovery showed signs of promise after a season-high 15 points on 4-of-6 shooting from 3-point range to help IU upset No. 20 Northwestern, 91-84 Sunday. “It’s been pretty hard coming back from my concussion,” Walter said prior to Sunday’s clash with the Wildcats. “I never really knew what a concussion was. When people said ‘Oh, I have a concussion,’ I would just be like, ‘Oh that sucks,’ because I never had one before.” Walter, who was hit in the chin while defending in practice, was completely shut down for three weeks following the incident — something that she hadn’t done since she was seven years old. “I was kind of out of it for a second,” Walter said of being hit in the jaw. “But then I was like, ‘No I’m fine, I’m fine’ but I was crying and couldn’t stop. I was really mad at myself that I was crying because I think I knew that I had a concussion but I didn’t want one. They tested me and I couldn’t remember anything.” Walter technically made her return in an upset win of No. 24 Chattanooga on Nov. 17, 2015, but just played one minute. Walter returned to the rotation amidst one of IU’s
toughest games in the nonconference season, as the Hoosiers fell to No. 19 DePaul on Nov. 19 , 2015. Walter played 13 minutes of that game, scoring five points on 2-of-4 shooting from the floor. Four of her first nine games back were against power-conference teams before Walter eventually found her way back into Moren’s starting lineup against Yale. “I was completely out for three weeks,” Walter said. “No biking, no anything. The last time I haven’t done anything for three weeks was second grade when I started playing basketball. I was really out of shape and lost a lot of muscle. Trying to get all of that back and getting into the rhythm again against tougher teams was kind of hard.” Walter missed the little things. The running, the weight-lifting, the layups. For three weeks, one of IU’s bright spots from 2014-15 was unable to contribute to her team as her sophomore season began. She averaged 7.4 points per game and shot 42 percent from 3-point range as a freshman despite being buried in Moren’s rookie rotation. “When you’re doing it, you’re just like, ‘ugh,’” Walter said of the conditioning. “You just have to grit your teeth and get through it. But when you can’t do it for three weeks and you’re sitting on the side, everything in you wants to be out there so bad. It keeps it in perspective. I was so happy when I got cleared for noncontact practice. I was doing layups and I was so happy to do stuff again.” Walter, a student in the Kelley School of Business, said she also had to work her way back into classes following her concussion. With little to do, Walter said she spent a lot of her time in the dark with limited screen time. “It was really boring,”
Northwestern, but they’ve defeated Michigan State and Syracuse. They have a record deserving of a ranking in the 100’s, but KenPom.com has them rated as the No. 59 team in the country. Needless to say, Wisconsin is hard to figure out. I look at the tough, gritty 59-58 win against Wisconsin three weeks ago as the real launch to the dominant basketball IU has been playing lately. It was proof the team could win ugly. And the way Wisconsin plays basketball is to ensure the opponent makes more mistakes than it usually does. The Badgers are fourth in the Big Ten in turnover percentage and have the best defensive steal percentage. This becomes interesting because IU has been playing dominantly, and costly mistakes have been rare. But with the pace and aggressiveness with which IU plays, turnovers are always going to be a cost of doing business to some extent. As I’ve mentioned, Crean has been making the team run sideline sprints when it turns the ball over too much. Priority number one has often been combining passing wisely and passing accurately. But will Wisconsin be the matchup to make IU start messing up a little more? When one combines the matchup with the struggles in the Kohl Center, it can be easy to foresee a loss here. brodmill@indiana.edu

Hoosiers ranked No. 19 in AP poll From IDS Reports
WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
BRODY MILLER is a junior in journalism.
The Hoosiers moved up to No. 19 in the AP poll after beating Illinois and Northwestern, each by at least 30 points last week. The Hoosiers entered the AP poll last week at No. 25 and are also ranked No. 17 in the USA Today Coaches Poll. IU is now the highestranked team in the state of Indiana, ahead of No. 21 Pur-
due and No. 25 Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish entered the AP top 25 this week, meaning the Hoosiers now have a win against a ranked opponent. IU will have its 12-game winning streak tested this week Tuesday at unranked Wisconsin and Saturday at home against unranked Minnesota. Michael Hughes

Sophomore guard Jess Walter shoots a 3-pointer against Illinois on Wednesday at Assembly Hall.
Walter said. “You’re working back into class too, so I had one day that was three days of class. When I had that, my symptoms got a lot worse and I wouldn’t be able to make it through practice. It was the balance of making it through all of your classes and making it through watching practice.” Luckily, Walter had fellow sophomores Tyra Buss and Amanda Cahill, her roommates, to keep her company. Buss wore her jersey during the 3-point shooting contest of Hoosier Hysteria; Walter was scheduled to participate in the contest, but could not play due to injury. “They were really nice,” Walter said of Buss and Cahill. “They’d come into my room and talk to me because I couldn’t do anything. They drove me around and were there for me. They kept my
spirits up, I was really frustrated because you don’t want that to happen. It could’ve happened two weeks later, it’s better now than later on.” Walter had her struggles once she was able to step out on the floor of Assembly Hall — she shot 11-of-47 from the field in her return against Ohio State. Following four consecutive starts, Walter fell out of Moren’s starting lineup in place of junior guard Karlee McBride after the Purdue loss. With back-to-back consistent performances this past week, though, Walter’s recent play has showed that she may be able to build on her freshman year, after all. “Right now it’s my role to come off the bench and give us a boost, whether that’s offensively or defensively,” Walter said. “Every game I come into it with that mindset.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “Then I’d always come back.” Jess was 14 years old when she was invited to train at the National Training Center in Indianapolis. One year of high school down, she moved nearly a thousand miles away from her family. She trained seven hours a day. She didn’t have the opportunity to attend a normal high school. She missed out on senior prom, homecoming and Friday-night football games. She didn’t even have time to get her driver’s license. The city where Jess spent time missing home is the place her teammate Amy called home, though at times it hardly felt like it. With her parents divorced, she switched living with her mom, dad, aunt and grandparents, moving to a different house every time she became too frustrated. For a while, she and her mom didn’t see eye-to-eye. “I was kind of a bad kid,” Amy admits, smiling. But she was fearless and competitive, too — the most competitive person she’s ever met, Jess said. Diving, for Amy, was different and exciting and a positive outlet for all of her energy. In 2012, she was one spot away from making the Olympic team but finished third, while only the top two qualify. It wasn’t until that moment she realized the Olympics were an attainable goal for her, and now everything she has goes toward reaching it. “Amy will perform dive after dive after dive after dive, and that’s how she builds confidence,” Johansen said. “It’s all about consistent training and repetition, doing it until it’s the best it can be.” * * *

A little more than a year ago, Amy and Jess became synchro partners. Now, they’re the No. 1 synchro duo in the United States. Some synchro duos have been competing together for 10 or 15 years, but these two have been competing against each other four times as long as they’ve been teammates. Finding the balance between competing against and competing with each other is still an adjustment. Amy describes it as having to wear two hats. “I’m still working on it,” she says. “In everything, I find something to compete about — I’ll get here earlier than you if I can.” Johansen said it’s a mental battle his divers deal with every day, but it makes them even better. Very few, if any, divers in the country have the advantage of watching their competition day in and day out.

There is only one spot on the Olympic team in the synchronized event. Practicing as a duo isn’t much different than practicing alone. You’re trying to perform that dive as perfectly as possible, as always, just with someone standing next to you. At the back of the platform, Jess will line up next to Amy. “Ready?” she’ll say. “One, two, three, go.” They’ll take a running start before jumping off both feet, all four touching in unison. As soon as they’re in the air, it’s each diver for herself. “Ultimately, in synchro, you say ‘1, 2, 3, go’ and after you say ‘3,’ it’s only you,” Amy says. One front tuck somersault. Then another. And another. “That’s a birdie for Amy,” Johansen says. “Par for Jess.” * * * Amy paces the pool deck, stopping for instructions from her coach, preparing for her final dive. Her red, white and blue headphones are back on, more Nicki Minaj lyrics blasting in her ears. This is my moment I waited all my life Jess has just finished her set — more 8’s on her final dive and good enough for second place. She hurries over to hug her coach and then waits to see if she’ll be celebrating with her teammate. “Amy Cozad,” echoes through the natatorium. “407C.” Her aunt, her fiancé, her mother and father, her grandmother and so many others have come out to watch her dive. Her former coach — the coach who told Amy after just a week of practice she would be an Olympic diver — is watching. Ten meters up, before diving, Amy reminds herself how many times she’s nailed this dive. Just do it like your last rep, she thinks. Just do it right. Three and a half somersaults later, Amy is the national champion. She gets out of the pool and jogs cautiously across the slippery pool deck toward the crowd. She wants to hug her fiancé and talk to her family. Fans whistle and applaud, and Amy shyly smiles up at them, giving a small wave. She knows this is just the beginning of accomplishing what she couldn’t four years ago. After only a week off for Christmas, she’ll be back in the pool. And she doesn’t mind. “Never,” she said. In 13 years, there hasn’t been a morning when she’s woken up and not wanted to dive.
