FOOTBALL

Being ranked is not enough for IU ahead of Penn State game

By Caleb Coffman calcoffm@iu.edu | @CalCoff

Always building, never arrived.

That’s the mindset IU football has adopted this season. Never be satisfied and never become complacent with where you are as a program.

After defeating Nebraska to clinch its first bowl appearance since 2016, IU head coach Tom Allen said winning six games was the expectation. Winning a bowl game was the goal.

Now after being ranked No. 24 — the first time IU has been ranked since Sept. 20, 1994 — the message remains the same.

“Just because you get ranked one week, doesn't mean all of a sudden you've arrived,” Allen said. “As I talk to our players about what that means, some people will choose to be satisfied with it, then it will go away if that's what you choose to do.”

Before the season started, IU tempered its expectations as it was coming off back-to-back seasons falling one game shy of the postseason at the hands of Purdue.

Tack on the countless injuries to the offensive line, the constant questions about the health of redshirt-freshman quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and an early season 51-10 loss to Ohio State made the likelihood of seeing IU on the rankings list seem bleak.

For those inside the program, being ranked was an inevitability, not a long shot.

“I knew the hard work was going to pay off sooner or later,” freshman cornerback Tiawan Mullen said. “I knew it wasn’t going to take us two to three years to

Now that IU has a new No. 24 sitting next to its name, the Hoosiers have a tall task in front of them to keep their ranking as they set out to take on Penn State in State College, Pennsylvania.

Not only are the Nittany Lions the No. 9 team in the country, but they also have something to prove as they are coming off their first loss of the season at the hands of No. 7 Minnesota.

In IU’s first game since the announcement that Penix Jr. would miss the remainder of the season after having shoulder surgery, the Hoosiers run into the No. 13 defense in the country. Penn State’s defense has only allowed an average of 4.33 yards per play so far this season and have only given up 13 touchdowns.

The Nittany Lions are stout against the run — entering the week as the third best run defense in the country — and will look to take away sophomore running back Stevie Scott III from the IU game plan as he’s rushed for over 100 yards in three of IU’s past games.

Penn State surrenders only 74.2 rushing yards per game and is led by sophomore linebacker Micah Parsons who has the 10th most tackles in the Big Ten with 68.

On the other side of the ball, the Nittany Lions are good but nothing special.

Penn State just sneaks into the top-50 in total offense at No. 45 but SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 5

LGBTQ+ center organizes brunch honoring director

By Cate Charron catchar@iu.edu | @catecharron

Doug Bauder is retiring as director of the LGBTQ+ Culture Center at the end of the semester.

The Office of the Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Multicultural Affairs is planning a retirement brunch in honor of Bauder from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Sunday at the Indiana Memorial Union Solarium.

“Doug Bauder’s work at the LGBTQ+ Cultural Center has been invaluable to not only the center itself, but to the university as a whole,” said Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Multicultural Affairs James Wimbush in an email to the IDS. “He has worked tirelessly in creating an environment for LGBTQ+ students on campus where they can feel safe and supported unconditionally.”

His effect has been felt among students.

“He has dedicated, devoted so much beyond just working at Indiana University,” said featured speaker Shane Windmeyer, who created Campus Pride. “He’s really changed the lives of so many people, including myself.”

All are welcome to attend the retirement brunch, and no registration is required. Brunch will be served with vegan and

vegetarian options available, and dress code ranges from IU spirit wear to business casual.

This event is part of an allweekend celebration of the LGBTQ+ Culture Center’s 25th anniversary.

Registration is already filled for the cocktail reception and dinner.

A free dance for students will take place 8:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Nov. 16 in the IMU Solarium. The party will feature local DJ Hank Green.

Bauder was born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, into a religious family. He said he had a positive experience with the church when he was young, so he decided to go to Princeton Seminary to become a pastor. Bauder was a pastor for 17 years and was married for five.

“I was still in my 30s when I finally came to terms with the fact that I was gay,” Bauder said. “I had been kind of fooling myself for a long time.”

He divorced his wife and left the ministry.

Bauder moved to Madison, Wisconsin, to begin working as a volunteer and employee in an office providing social services specifically for gay people. He also worked with the University of Wisconsin Madison regarding what Bauder said the university called SEE BRUNCH, PAGE 5

Do people know what’s in their AMF?

By Mel Fronczek mfroncze@iu.edu | @MelissaFronczek

Inside The Upstairs Pub, a group of girls flail their arms in the air, almost resembling jumping jacks, while some of their friends count for them. Another group claps and shouts each time one song ends and another begins.

Two boys, no more than a foot apart, yell to each other about the football game on the TV screen.

The smell of tequila, sweat and melted cheese from the pizza stand wafts through the bar.

“Are you drunk?” someone asks the person next to them. “No no, just warm,” the other replies.

There are endless alcoholic options for someone to get their fix. There are vodka sodas, Long Islands, Vegas bombs and more.

But only one drink is bright blue, vulgarly named and carries the promise of a good time with it: the AMF, which stands for “Adios, Motherfucker.”

It takes Tori, one of the Thursday night bartenders, less than 15 seconds to make it, from scooping

Tori slides the AMF across the bar. Does the eager customer on the receiving end know what they’ll be putting in their body?

Jake and Mark sit at a high

table. Each of them have an AMF in front of them. They’re confident they know what’s in their drinks.

“We’re alcoholics,” Jake says. When asked why, he says, “Because we’re graduate students!

Why else?”

Jake guesses gin, vodka, blue curaçao, rum, maybe some water.

‘Water by the Spoonful’ presented by the theater department

By Raegan Walsh ramwalsh@iu.edu

The sound of dripping water echoes through the pitch black room. One small stage in the middle of the room lights up synchronously with the sound of a “ding.” Another stage then lights up. And another.

Looking up into space, three people converse with each other, seeming to be in different worlds.

They soon reveal they are all a part of a chatroom for recovering addicts.

“Water by the Spoonful” is the third production of the 2019-20 season at the IU Department of Theater, Drama and Contemporary Dance. The performances take place now through Nov. 16 in the Wells-Metz Theater.

Elliot Ortiz, a Puerto Rican Iraq War veteran, struggles with trauma from the war amidst the death of his adoptive mother, Ginny, and the family drama that it creates.

His struggle with trauma parallels the story of four addicts seeking refuge from their own suffering by conversing in a chatroom.

“In the chatroom, we experience a social world with its own set of rules, language, and relationships, a world that provides an alternative to the harsh social structures dividing the characters in the physical world by race, gen-

der and social class,” dramaturg Eric Mayer-García said. “In this sense, the chatroom is both the reordering of the real world and the creation of a new kind of kinship that give the characters a chance to heal.”

The play, written by Quiara Alegría Hudes won the Pulitzer award for playwriting in 2012.

The play is the second in its trilogy about the main character, Elliot Ortiz, the Puerto Rican Iraq

War veteran.

The first installment, “Elliot, A Soldier’s Fugue” revolves around Ortiz coming to terms with fighting in Iraq. The final part takes place years after “Water by the Spoonful,” as Ortiz has moved back to the Middle East to pursue a role in a movie based in war-torn Iraq.

Finite site fundraises for IUDM

IU has decided to open the new Office of Business Partnerships led by Valerie Gill, the new associate vice president for business partnerships.

Office of Business Partnerships opens

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu

In order to strengthen the university’s ties with businesses, IU has decided to open the new Office of Business Partnerships led by Valerie Gill, the new associate vice president for business partnerships.

The office’s main goal is to make it easier for companies to work with the university. However, it’s still in its infancy. The office has only been open for three weeks and is still in the process of collecting data on businesses it will be working with.

“The goal is to create an infrastructure where we can help companies navigate the university much more easily,” Gill said.

Gill and her staff will work with large corporations such as Coca-Cola, Adidas and Eli Lilly, along with more local Bloomington businesses such as the Bloomington Bagel Company and Pizza X. “I feel like there is a disconnect at times who the liaison is between the university and IU Dining,” said Tara Porter, a retail manager at the Indiana Memorial Union. “I think there should

definitely be a liaison between the brand itself and the university.”

Regarding local business, Gill said she wants to emphasize that the office is available for use.

“We are here; we are a resource.” she said Identifying top corporate partners and ensuring that interactions with corporations are specific to IU’s mission to support academic programs are also major goals of the office.

Gill has served as licensing and trademarks director at IU since 2008 and added the Office of Sponsorships

in 2016. The new office functions as a merger of corporate relations along with licensing and trademarks.

Fred Cate, who helped to create the new associate vice president for business partnerships position, said Gill was ready to step into a new job at IU. “We asked her this summer to think about this challenge,” he said. “She sort of created her own job, if you will.”

Cate also emphasized that this office is a step up in the university landscape.

“No university has tried this before,” he said.

‘Big Red Bus’ to travel, celebrate IU

By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu

IU’s Office of the Bicentennial is taking IU’s history on the road with its interactive exhibit “All for You,” otherwise known as the “Big Red Bus.” The bus tour began in September and will visit all 92 counties in Indiana by August 2020.

“Our goal is for visitors to gain a better understanding of how Indiana University impacts the state of Indiana,” said Jeremy Hackerd, project manager for the Office of the Bicentennial. “Hopefully the exhibit will inspire people to apply for admission, support university programs or get involved in some other way.”

Hackerd said the exhibit’s main focus is to inform Indiana residents of IU’s effect on the state and how the university has improved their lives.

The bus features content from every IU campus and includes historical images, objects from IU’s collections such as old athletic equipment and a championship ring from the 2012 NCAA College Cup, small models of significant sites and objects including Showalter Fountain and the Old Oaken Bucket and even a virtual reality ex-

perience of every IU campus.

“We reached out to all the collections at every campus and asked what materials they might have to tell the history of IU,” said Heather Calloway, executive director of University Collections at IU. “We have either an artifact, video or photo from every campus.”

The bus also includes a map of the state depicting locations of all nine IU campuses, interactive touch screen monitors for the viewing of

short films along with other artifacts from IU’s history.

The bus stopped Nov. 6 at South Central Community School Corporation in Union Mills, Indiana. Superintendent Theodore Stevens booked the bus after seeing a press release and said he wanted his students to experience an exhibit from a large university.

“It’s exciting because our school is so small, and to have one of the largest universities

in the state of Indiana have an exhibit for us is really exciting,” Stevens said.

The Office of the Bicentennial has also included an interactive virtual tour of the Big Red Bus itself online.

Visits from the bus can be booked online through the Office of the Bicentennial’s website. The Office of the Bicentennial will announce bus stops on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram along with its website’s events page.

Ph.D. candidate creates health app

By Kyra Miller kymill@iu.edu | @kyra_ky94

Two years ago, Ph.D candidate Daehyoung Lee took a class in the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing and Engineering.

For a final project, he was tasked to create an app prototype. He created a health app designed for a specific population, and he chose those with autism. Then PuzzleWalk was born, a gamified, behavior-change mobile app that promotes physical activity for people on the spectrum.

Research done by Lee, his team and others at IU show that people with autism have high occurrences of health issues such as obesity, Type 2 diabetes and hypertension due to an inactive lifestyle.

PuzzleWalk motivates these people to become more physically active through gamification of exercise and behavior changing techniques that directly tie their daily steps to the amount of game time they get, Lee said.

On top of simply encouraging people to exercise for gameplay, PuzzleWalk also promotes self-monitoring of one’s performance, provides instruction on how to achieve target behavior through the app, gives rewards for progress and provides user feedback, Lee said.

“People are encouraged to increase their daily steps in order to increase their daily play time,” Lee said.

PuzzleWalk employs spot the difference as one of its gamification techniques.

A new finite help website Finite Plus is helping to fundraise for IU Dance Marathon. Founder Therin Alrik said he is donating 10% of all new $35 membership fees from Nov. 1-Nov. 17.

“As the business is having money come in, I want to return some of that money to the IU community,” Alrik said. “IUDM is just part of the fabric of IU so it just seemed like the best place to start.”

Alrik said he wants to use Finite Plus to raise money for other charities in the future.

In addition to fundraising for IUDM, Finite Plus’ main goal is helping students with their Finite classes.

Alrik graduated from the Media School in May 2018 and he and his friend Zachary Watt decided to use their video production skills to help students learn.

They, along with junior Max Weger, created the website as a resource for IU students taking Finite. The website is heavily centered around short video tutorials, but also includes study guides, practice quizzes and unlimited e-tutoring from Alrik.

Finite Plus was launched in August. Alrik said it took about a year and a half to build.

“It’s this whole experience of being able to sit in your dorm and get the help you need with Finite without having to leave the comfort of your pajamas or pay an exuberant amount of money,” Alrik said.

The e-tutoring consists of students submitting questions to Alrik which he then answers. Alrik posts these problems with his work and answers to the website so other students can benefit.

“I’m trying to build essentially this database of student-submitted ques-

tions,” Alrik said.

Alrik guarantees an answer to a student’s question within 48 hours, but he said he has answered 83% of the questions within an hour.

Senior Jenna Roganovich said she has been using Finite Plus almost all semester. She started using the website during the third week.

Roganovich said she likes Finite Plus because of the length and quality of the videos.

“He does a really good job of explaining stuff clearly, I think, and since they’re shorter videos it’s a lot easier to use them to study,” she said.

Roganovich said she uses the e-tutoring regularly. She credits Alrik’s help as the reason she has an A on WebWork.

Roganovich said she thinks Finite Plus is worth the money.

“With Finite Plus I can email him for help on a homework question and he’ll get back to me right away and then I can watch his tutorial videos whenever I want,” Roganovich said.

Alrik said he would like to lower the price as more people sign up.

“I want it to be accessible to as many people as possible,” Alrik said. “It’s really not about me making money.”

Alrik said he is only looking to be compensated for the time he puts into Finite Plus.

Alrik is the only person who answers students’ questions through the e-tutoring. He said he wants to keep it that way because it ensures reliable, consistent answers.

One of Alrik’s main goals is to raise the GPAs of students in Finite. Alrik said the average GPA points awarded for Finite right now is 2.45.

“I really want to make sure that we’re helping people’s grades so they can be qualified to apply for things later in life,” Alrik said.

Duke claims equipment was working properly

By Matt Rasnic mrasnic@iu.edu | @Matt_Rasnic

IU and Duke Energy have issued conflicting statements regarding what caused Friday’s campuswide power outage.

More than 40 buildings on the IU campus lost power around 10:14 a.m.

Friday. The affected buildings regained power around 9:05 p.m.

IU Spokesperson Chuck Carney issued a statement with information he had at the time claiming the outage was caused by a prob-

lem at the Duke Energy substation.

Duke Energy Spokesperson Lew Middleton said Monday there were no problems with the substation or any other Duke Energy owned equipment. He claimed the incident was caused by IU’s equipment.

When asked for comment Monday, Carney stated the university is currently unaware of what caused the outage. He confirmed IU equipment did fail Friday.

Carney said officials will continue to investigate the cause of the outage.

New coordinator unites military students at IU

By Jess Prucha jprucha@iu.edu | @jess_prucha

Girls invited to attend leadership summit The City of Bloomington Safe and Civil City Program is offering a one-day Young Women’s Leadership Summit for middle and high schoolaged girls 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Thursday at city hall.

The focus of the summit is “Celebrating Black Girl Magic,” featuring three workshops that will include conversations on body image and society, imposter syndrome, belongingness for middle and high school aged girland mental health, according to the City of Bloomington website.

Speakers will include Emcee Keyandra Wigfall, program manager for the Office of Minority Health at the Indiana State Department of Health in Indianapolis, and workshop leaders will include Ellise Smith, a Ph.D. student in urban education studies; Nichelle Whitney, senior assistant director at the IU Office of Admissions and Virginia Githiri, a professor in the Department of Applied Health Science at the IU School of Public Health.

“This work is important because confidence and community lead to innovation and impact,” Whitney said in an email. “When we are part of the solutions that change the world, then we feel empowered to pass these gifts on to generations after us. This is how we shift culture.”

Whitney will speak about how to identify areas where young girls lack confidence, factors that influence how women perceive themselves and ways girls can support other girls.

The summit is dedicated to empowering young women, along with offering resources to young women of color, according to the City of Bloomington website. Although directed toward Black and Latina girls, girls of any ethnicity are invited to attend.

Smith said she typically studies body image and society in an 18-and-older age group but is looking forward to the challenge of having these conversations with young girls who have not had the same experiences that college-aged women have had.

“How can we have these same conversations with girls before they get to the age of 18?” Smith asked. “Young girls still experience negative comments on body image from family, friends and on social media. These external voices that have been internalized by us as teens can be caught earlier.”

She said she hopes to remind young girls that they are “magical.”

“They are worthy, and nothing in the world should stop them from being validated, especially body size,” Smith said. “They don’t need to look like the next little girl to know that they are beautiful.”

ing physical activity to decreasing sedentary behavior would be most effective in helping shape a healthier lifestyle for these people, Frey said.

In the future, Lee and his team hope to track the long-term effects of the app’s use in people’s lives, including the differences in their physical and mental

health. The hope for the future is people with autism will have healthier lifestyles with more physical activity which will hopefully decrease anxiety, Lee said.

“We want people with autism to live the happiest and healthiest lives possible,” Lee said. “We really want to make a good difference for them.”

Sarah Bassett spent seven years serving in the U.S. Army. Now, she dedicates her time to creating a supportive community for women veterans on campus.

Bassett started her role as IU’s first women veterans outreach coordinator in September. IU Women’s Philanthropy Leadership Council funded this position through a $10,000 grant.

“We were really fortunate that they saw a need for women veterans to come together and support each other,” Bassett said.

Bassett works at the Center for Veteran and Military Students to mentor and connect women veterans with each other. She said she hopes to create a community where they can be vulnerable and express any struggles they face.

“The military mindset is ‘suck it up and drive on,’ and I want to break that down because in the civilian world, without the backing of the military, it can be a lot harder,” she said.

Bassett joined the U.S. Army in 2005, before graduating high school in 2006.

She was first stationed in South Korea for a year. She then volunteered for deployment from Fort Bragg, North Carolina, to Iraq with the 82nd Airborne Division. After re-enlisting in 2008, she was

later deployed from Hawaii to Afghanistan with the 25th Infantry Division.

Bassett graduated from IU last May with a bachelor’s degree in neuroscience. She said she frequently visited the Center for Veteran and Military Students during her time as a student, and it allowed her to meet other women veterans.

“When you walk into a room of male veterans, sometimes you don’t feel like you necessarily fit in,” she said. “Having other female veterans in the room made me feel like I belonged.”

John Summerlot, director of the center for veteran and military students, said one Dr. Scott Bellini, Dr. Donetta Cothran, Dr. Andrea Chomistek and Dr. Jaroslaw Harezlak began seeking funding for more research and professional development of the app. The IU Collaborative Research Grant allowed for this, and the team was able to use the grant to send the app to professionals at IU-Purdue

concern is that women veterans at IU graduate at a lower rate than their male counterparts.

“Our women veterans are not graduating at the same rate that male veterans are,” he said. “Sarah is researching the reason for that gap and seeing what we can do to fix this.”

Bassett meets with women veterans to address academic concerns or ways to adjust to college life.

“She’s been able to provide input to me about how we can ensure that our programs, outreach and efforts meet the needs of women veterans as much as male veterans,” Summerlot said.

Bassett serves as a source of information and guidance for women veterans. She said one of the challenges of connecting with these women is finding them.

“Sometimes women are less likely to identify as veterans because the world doesn’t really see them as a veteran,” Bassett said. “I’m just trying to reach out, and find them.”

Summerlot said Bassett’s role is important because she’s the first woman veteran on the center’s staff.

“Since we hired her, I have seen and interacted with more female veterans than I have in the last couple of years,” Summerlot said.

Coalition stands in silence for Jacobs students

By Helen Rummel hrummel@iu.edu

Patrons of Richard Wagner’s “Parsifal” lined up Nov. 10 outside of the Musical Arts Center. During their wait, they were met with the homemade signs and pamphlets of the Indiana Graduate Workers Coalition, reading “Behind the scenes.”

“We want to raise awareness about these working conditions that are affecting our friends,” Jacobs School of Music graduate student worker Tyler Erickson said.

“Our friends couldn’t be here to speak out about it because they are participating in the opera.”

Around 30 members of the IGWC attended a silent protest before the opening show of the Opera and Ballet theater’s second opera of the 2019-2020 season.

This year, the number of operas performed was cut from six to four, limiting the performance opportunities of many Jacobs students.

In addition, the university hired 11 professionals for the four-hour opera, taking positions away from music students.

In response, IGWC spread information through bulletins and posters found in the halls of the Music Addition and Simon Music

Center, which invited the public to participate in the coalition’s protest. The protest concluded with the concise message: “Fund workers and students, not image.”

“It’s important for us to highlight the work that we do as graduate students and workers who are underpaid and underrecognized by the university and its administration,” coalition member Cole Nelson said.

Nelson, as well as Erickson and Jacobs graduate student worker Chelsey Belt, stood alongside many of their fellow coalition members on the sidewalk leading up to the performance venue. Each member offered informational pamphlets to the guests and then wished for them to enjoy the show.

“It has never been our intention to protest the opera,” Belt said. “Many of our colleagues are backstage and in the pit right now, and we wish them the best in their performance.”

The coalition emphasized that they had no intention to criticize the Jacobs School of Music but rather wanted to advocate for its unpaid performers.

“Our priority today is to be educational and informative, so the very fact that we were able to reach so many people who seem to

be receptive to our efforts is a wonderful first step,” Nelson said.

Nelson also recommended others stay updated on the current events surrounding working conditions for graduate students by following the group on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook @indianagrads.

“This is not an isolated event,” Nelson said. “It’s important to recognize the

various ways that the university exploits us as graduate workers.”

The coalition emphasized that one of their goals was for the university to reconsider the fees and tuition costs Jacobs graduate students pay. According to the coalition, graduate worker stipends for some Jacobs students can be as low as $3,900 per year once the additional costs are factored

in.

“We saw how our colleagues were living and making ends meet,” Belt said. “We saw this production as an opportunity to stand in solidarity with them and let the wider community know about the conditions that they’re living in whe n they are doing so much fantastic work.”

The coalition hopes to see changes in the future to

Singer Alex Cameron headlines at the Bishop Grace Abushalback gabushal@iu.edu

Two Australians with a Versace leopard leotard and a black Hawaiian shirt walk into a bar.

At 9 p.m. Tuesday at the Bishop, Alex Cameron and Holiday Sidewinder, two singers hailing from Sydney, Australia, performed.

The first opening act was Jewish comic Emily Panic, who managed to tell jokes about sensitive subjects such as 9/11 and the Holocaust while winning over her audience.

Her often sarcastic stand-up spanned topics from paranormal activity to her conspiracy theorist husband.

Sidewinder took the stage in sparkly tights, clear and heeled thigh-high boots, big gold hoops and fresh ‘80s pop beats. Sidewinder covered the Beach Boys’ classic hit “Kokomo” with a funky, techno remix.

“I’m on vacay now,” Sidewinder said as she got off the stage and led an energized conga line around the room.

Sidewinder sung anthems about moving on and

not being phased by anything.

“I apologize for not having a band,” Sidewinder said as she performed alone. “It’s cost-effective,” Carie Kelsheimer, 30, said she couldn’t believe how much talent Sidewinder had performing live.

“I was kind of really blown away that her live voice sounds just like her CD,” Kelsheimer said.

Cameron and his band took the stage with a mixture of rock ‘n’ roll influenced by jazz and pop. The 29-yearold musician sang a surprisingly upbeat song about divorce, as well as sweet, light, honest depictions of him and his lover.

“One of our first ever headliner shows in the United States was right here in this very room in 2015,” Cameron said.

Mark says there can’t be any water in there.

Reagan, an IU senior, sits with her friend Kendall a few tables over. Kendall takes a sip of Reagan’s AMF. Reagan says AMFs are made up of vodka, gin, rum, blue curaçao, Long Island mix and Sprite. Kendall says she has no idea. She’s 22 now, and she can’t remember what people told her was in an AMF when she turned 21. If Kendall had to guess, though, she’d say gin, vodka, Sprite, blue curaçao and lemonade.

Michaela, an IU senior, came to Upstairs with three friends. They take off their coats with fur-lined hoods and take the three open seats at the end of the bar. They all order AMFs immediately.

She thinks vodka, Sprite and tequila are definitely in the drink she’s sipping. She pauses to think.

“What else? There’s one more. I’m missing one thing,” she says. Michaela asks one of her friends, but she says she doesn’t know any of the alcohols in it.

Michaela remembers.

“Oh, blue,” she says. Not blue curaçao, just blue.

Michaela doesn’t say she likes AMFs. “Better than shots,” she says with a shrug.

Kyra, an IU senior, says she likes AMFs because they’re big and have a lot of alcohol in them. She likes the taste too. Kyra thinks she’s drinking Taaka vodka, tequila, gin, Sprite and blue raspberry syrup.

So, what’s really in this drink, shrouded in mystery and a profane name? Sprite, two shots of vodka, one shot of gin, sour mix and blue curaçao.

have the ability to score in bunches. The Nittany Lions average 37.1 points per game and are led by their dynamic dual-threat sophomore quarterback Sean Clifford.

Clifford has the ability to pick apart a secondary as a capable passer with a big arm and has already racked up 2,271 passing yards, 21 touchdowns and only six interceptions so far this season.

What makes Clifford different is his ability to blend the pro-style with being able to take off running when the opportunity presents itself with high effectiveness.

Clifford isn’t a quarterback who will call his own number often and take off running on designed runs, but he has shown throughout the season his ability to make plays with his feet as he’s rushed for 426 yards and three touchdowns.

As Penn State waits to show that its No. 9 ranking doesn’t do them justice, the Hoosiers are determined to prove they deserve their No. 24 ranking.

“If you don't believe we can go to Penn State and win at Penn State for the first time in program history, then don't get on the bus,” Allen said. “That's bottom line. If you don't believe, we got no chance.”

Bauder said he loved the decision to reclassify to DEMA because it displayed that IU recognized that a person can have more than one identity including the LGBTQ+ community.

“Students like that who fall at the intersection — identifying as Latino but also identifying as LGBTQ — cause often times folks in intersection identities like those feel like they have to choose one,” said LGBTQ+ Culture Center graduate assistant Danielle Hernandez.

Intersectionality is defined as how people have multiple identities, such as race, gender and sexual orientation, that overlap and intertwine.

When IU created the Office of Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Student Support Services in 1994, Bauder filled the position as the first director. Bauder said when the office first opened, there were only 15 to 20 other campus offices like it in the country.

“We were kind of pioneers at that point,” Bauder said.

In his time at IU, Bauder met his partner at the university and between the both of them, they have four children and 10 grandchildren.

Bauder said five years ago the Office of GLB Student Services was reclassified from being a part of the dean’s office to under DEMA. This spurred the office’s name change to the LGBTQ+ Culture Center.

A life-changing trip Sophomore Jonathan Moran’s trip to Vietnam gave him a new perspective on life, relationships and wrestling.

By Tyler Tachman ttachman@iu.edu | @Tyler_T15

Jonathan Moran didn’t know what to feel.

He was overwhelmed by the thoughts running through his head while he sat in the Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Saigon, Vietnam.

Everything in Moran’s mind was jumbled as he tried to make sense of the last three and a half weeks of his life. He tried, but he couldn’t put the pieces together. He struggled to comprehend what he had seen and experienced.

His mind went blank.

He had to find a way to organize his thoughts and acknowledge his feelings. He went into a store at the airport and purchased a journal.

Moran never recorded his feelings on paper, but the journal allowed him to express his emotions and release his anxiety. He could scribble anything in the notebook and recall his adventure.

Moran opened the book in the terminal and wrote. And wrote. He continued page after page. He didn’t write complete sentences, just fragments only he could put together.

As Moran wrote, his mind began to calm and his thoughts became clear again.

He started to understand what he had seen. Moran’s memories of the children, the scenery and the heat became vivid.

But, before he experienced a new culture, Moran started his journey three weeks earlier at Chicago O’Hare International Airport Moran, a sophomore wrestler at IU, was accepted into the “Coach for Colleges” program, which sends collegiate athletes from around the country to impoverished areas in Vietnam to coach sports and educate local children in a school subject.

Moran was introduced to it after his teammate Dillon Hoey went on the trip in 2018.

Moran also felt a desire to give back because of his humble beginnings. Early in his life, Moran lived in a middle-to-low income neighborhood in Chicago before he and his family moved out before Moran entered high school.

“A lot of my friends from back home don’t get to experience leaving that town,” Moran said.

He never thought wrestling would take him across the world.

“I’m so grateful that sports gave me this opportunity. I feel blessed.”

Jonathan Moran, sophomore wrestler

“I’m so grateful that sports gave me this opportunity,” Moran said. “I feel blessed.”

The Portage, Indiana, native boarded his flight at O’Hare and knew where he was headed but not much else. He knew he would have a place to sleep, but he didn’t know where. He knew he would have food to eat, but he didn’t know what it would be.

“I was not going on vacation,” Moran said. “I was going to rural Vietnam to the poor countryside. I didn’t know how people were going to accept me, and I didn’t know how the Vietnamese people were going to react to Americans.”

Moran settled in for the 20-hour trip to Shanghai, China, and was met with a new world when he arrived.

The Shanghai Airport was the biggest he had ever seen. Hundreds of people hurried to their planes, many of them dressed in suits. Moran peered at the signs covered in Chinese, but he knew he couldn’t understand them.

Moran and his fellow athletes had to sprint to catch their connecting flight to the airport in Saigon.

It was the middle of the night when they finally arrived in Vietnam. The air smelled different to Moran, but he couldn’t describe it.

As they drove to the hotel where they would be staying for two nights, Moran was in shock. His eyes were fastened to the window in the car.

He stared out the vehicle as it cut through the night. He saw people

sleeping in the streets, block after block. The structures in the city were pushed up next to each other, and the paint on the houses was peeling and rusting away. There weren’t any walls on some of the buildings. It was just a tin roof and a floor.

Two days later Moran and his classmates arrived at their permanent residence. The rooms sat on each side of the long hallway that ran through the house.

Just a couple nights into the trip, Moran and the other athletes started to form a strong bond. They just sat in a room, talked and opened up to each other.

Then, Moran got into a weekly routine as the classes began, and he was immediately moved when he was introduced to his sixth and seventh grade students.

Moran saw the kids laughing and smiling, even though he knew they were struggling.

Moran would wake up at 6 a.m., have breakfast at 6:30 and get to the schoolhouse at 7:00. Moran taught English and coached baseball to 6th graders from 7-11 in the morning.

Then, he had a lunch break – and every meal was the same: white rice, a fried egg and a protein. After, he went back to school and repeated the process with the 7th grade group.

He spoke to the students through translators.

The kids loved Moran, and Moran loved them too.

The Vietnamese kids had never played baseball before, yet they were all smiling when Moran would step up to the plate and smash the wiffle ball into the atmosphere. When they heard that Moran wrestled, they tried to take him down.

After the school day, Moran and his co-workers would sit down, reflect and plan for the next day.

It was hot everyday. Like fry an egg on the pavement hot, 115 degrees hot, sweat as soon as you step outside hot. It would rain almost everyday. Sometimes Moran and the kids would sit outside during the downpours to cool down.

He specifically remembers his experiences on the third weekend, when he went to visit one of his students at home. In rural areas of Vietnam, households average $19 USD per capita per month.

Moran arrived at a house with a rice field behind the living space, and a stream that was used as a bathroom. The child’s grandmother was standing in the kitchen, slicing open coconuts when Moran entered. She offered them fresh coconut milk.

After Moran visited his student’s house, they set out into the city together.

The young child waved his arms frantically at the bicycle that sat on the road. The two didn’t speak the same language but were still able to communicate. Moran hopped onto the seat, and his friend climbed onto the back of the bike. Moran started to pedal, and his friend let out a sound of sheer joy. The young boy cheered and smiled.

Bottom Sophomore Jonathan Moran was involved with the “Coach for Colleges” program, which sends collegiate athletes from around the country to impoverished areas in Vietnam to coach sports. Moran taught children about how to play baseball on his trip.

Moran smiled too.

The joy wouldn’t last though.

Moran learned that some kids will be forced to drop out of school to work and provide for their families.

“Camp for the kids was an escape from life,” Moran said. “But, they knew that once we leave they’ve got to go back to working on the rice farm and selling snails at the market or walking 45 minutes to school.”

Eventually, when it was time to leave, Moran felt a knot in his throat.

Moran hugged the children, and tears streamed down his cheeks. His students cried with him, the advi-

sors cried with him. Moran still gets tears in his eyes when he talks about them now.

He loaded his belongings onto the bus to go back to the airport. As the vehicle rolled off, the kids put their hands on the windows as they sobbed. The image is ingrained in Moran’s head, and he can still see it clearly.

“It was the saddest moment of my life,” Moran said. “It is absolutely incredible how much of a connection that you can make with these kids, not even speaking the same language.”

Moran sat in the terminal of the Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Saigon and just wrote.

He journaled seven pages filled with his thoughts. With each turn of the lined paper, another chapter from his journey was uncovered.

The kids still motivate him everyday, and sometimes he receives Facebook messages from them. Moran can’t understand what the notes say, but he feels relieved that they are doing alright.

Moran and the other eight students still have a group chat and talk daily, even more than three months after the trip.

Moran’s homescreen on his iPhone is two school children from Vietnam sporting sunglasses and bandanas from a Snapchat filter. He’s reminded of his trip daily, and the kids won’t leave his heart.

After returning from his great journey to Vietnam, Moran feels ready for his sophomore year on the mat. Head Wrestling Coach Angel Escobedo spoke to Moran about his travels.

“Jonathan has always been a kid that is grateful,” Escobedo said. “But, I think that he came back with a different attitude. He’s really immersed in everything that we have to offer here and he’s taken advantage of it.”

Moran’s sophomore year is underway, and he’s currently vying for the starting spot in the 133 pound weight class. As time passed, as he sweated through practices, as he pushed himself in the weight room, he had the chance to understand what he saw, and what he experienced. The electronic digits on his iPhone will turn, but the screen and memories behind will last.

When Jonathan Moran was sitting in the airport he didn’t know what to feel.

Now, he does.

Gratitude.

BOXING

Lamon Brewster to visit B-Town Boxing Nov. 19

By Jacques de Carbonnieres jdecarbo@iu.edu

B-Town Boxing will host an event next week with former world champion boxer Lamon Brewster. The Nov. 19 event will include a meet and greet with Brewster, as well as a seminar during which Brewster will teach the mechanics and fundamentals of boxing.

The event functions as a fundraiser for the Brewster’s Place, Brewster’s nonprofit which teaches life skills to underprivileged individuals and for the Rock Steady Boxing Program, a nonprofit which offers those with Parkinson’s an opportunity to participate in a non-contact boxing based fitness program.

Brewster was a professional boxer from 1996 to 2010, and he held the World Boxing Organization heavyweight title from 2004 to 2006. For the first three years of his career, Brewster remained undefeated and in April of 2004, he knocked out Vladimir Klitschko, giving him the title of heavyweight champion of the world.

Rob Scardina, a coach at the B-Town Boxing club, said he hopes that having Lamon Brewster at the event will inspire the community.

“It is an opportunity to motivate individuals through his story and rise to becoming a world champion,” Rob Scardina said.

An active member of the gym, Diana Scardina, Rob Scardina’s wife, loves the environment and community it brings. For Diana and Rob Scardina, they said they see themselves as surrogate parents for the IU students who become part of the program freshman year and stay for the remainder of their education.

“It’s fun to develop a relationship with IU students,”

Dina Scardina said.

Lamon Brewster is the second former boxing world champion to visit B-Town Boxing, with Angel Manfredy being the first in 2017. Rob Scardina said he hopes more and more former and current world champions will come to B-Town Boxing and help motivate and inspire the community.

Josh McRoberts, Rob Scardina’s stepson, is an assistant coach at B-Town Boxing and a competitive boxer, who plans on turning pro next year. He said he is looking forward to hearing Brewster’s story of rising up in the ranks of the boxing world.

“It’s a great way for people to come together and learn from a very successful person in and out of the ring,” McRoberts said.

The presence of professional boxers at the event should help reduce a number of misconceptions about the sport regarding its violent nature, Rob Scardina said. The majority of people assume that attending a boxing gym involves getting inside a ring and sparring, while in reality, most of B-Town Boxing members work out alone, focusing on technique one-on-one with a punching bag.

“B-Town Boxing is not about teaching the violence that many consider takes place in boxing but in fact teaching the art and science of boxing,” Rob Scardina said.

The event will take place from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Nov. 19 at B-Town Boxing at 1525 S Rogers St. Tickets cost $40 before the event and $50 at the door.

They can be purchased by calling (812) 391-4532.

The event is open to anyone interested in learning about the sport of boxing, regardless of experience or ability.

BASKETBALL

Rob Phinisee’s near return to full strength shows in win

By Matt Cohen mdc1@iu.edu | @Matt_Cohen_

With a grimace and a bit of a hobble, sophomore guard Rob Phinisee walked to the free throw line. He was fouled and hit on his side as he drove to the basket with just under 10 minutes to play in the second half.

Still in pain, he stepped up to the free throw line and drained them both, and he stayed in the game.

He was back playing at full speed again within seconds. He isn’t fully healthy yet. He’s finally just getting back to playing without restrictions in practice recovering from a lower abdominal injury. In the first two games he played more minutes than in practice.

But Phinisee is getting close to being back at his best. The steady rhythm that made him such a key piece as a freshman, playing with a maturity beyond his years, is beginning to return.

When IU was struggling on offense in the first half, Phinisee gave it a spark.

When IU couldn’t get stops on defense, or when it couldn’t pull away from an inferior opponent, again, it was Phinisee that began to create momentum. Phinisee’s steps closer to being at 100% were clear as IU pulled away to win 95-61 against University of North Alabama.

IU hadn’t made a shot from the field when Phinisee first came in.

Its only points were from the free throw line, where IU made each of its first six attempts.

Phinisee hadn’t started any of IU’s first three games as he has been working back from his injury.

“Do I think he’s 100%, no,” IU head coach Archie Miller said. “I don’t think he has his

rhythm. I think a month long of not practicing doesn’t just allow you to get out there. I do think hopefully he continues to build day by day and get better and better.”

He no longer has many restrictions in practice, but after a month of barely playing, his comfort and strength on the floor is getting closer to where it was a year ago, a season where he started 29 of 32 games played.

The sophomore got up from his kneeled position in front of the scorers table after the under-16 timeout in the first half, came in the game, and on his first possession drove to the basket and calmly finished a lay-up off the glass. Within seconds, Phinisee had given IU its best offensive possession of the night so far.

Phinisee immediately stepped in and was IU’s most reliable player on both ends of the floor. He scored 10 points including two threes in the first half and

continued to show why he’s been one of the only players Miller has relied on at the defensive end.

He rarely went out for the rest of the first half, and he went on to start the second. Even if his health isn’t totally there, Miller needed Phinisee on the floor. He was the steadiest IU player in a first half that was quite the opposite.

As IU finally went on a run at the end of the first half, finally escaping the grasp of a North Alabama team that wouldn’t let go throughout the first half, it was Phinisee who was the catalyst.

Phinisee played the second most minutes for IU with 22. He finished with 13 points, second to freshman forward Trayce JacksonDavis’ 20, six assists and a +19 rating, second best on the team.

He’s not the loudest guy on the floor, nor the most energetic. He’s stoic, the emotion and focus on his

face unchanged no matter what’s happening in front of him. It was in large contrast to his coach.

Miller was without his suit jacket when he returned to the floor to start the second half. His frustration was evident.

“The big picture: defensively we’re not there.

I thought we made some strides leading into the game,” Miller said. “But perimeter defense, defending the three point line, being able to execute just with great intensity, it wasn’t there.”

Phinisee’s play on the defensive end in the second half began to change that.

His defensive play began to disseminate to his teammates. IU allowed just 25 points in the second half after 40 in the first. It forced 22 turnovers.

Neither Phinisee nor defense is where Miller needs them to be yet, but both are getting closer.

IN THIS ESSAY I WILL...

IUDM is a symptom of a much larger problem. Where is the cure?

Tom Sweeny is a senior in economics and mathematics.

IU Dance Marathon has given millions of dollars to Riley Children’s Foundation, and yet, simultaneously, for many students, it often represents two problems: nationally, a broken health care system, and, locally, cultural and class divisions.

IUDM has had a significant financial effect on pediatric research and care in Indiana. According to a brochure which IUDM sent to businesses this year, the dance marathon group has raised nearly $40 million since it was founded in 1991.

The Riley Children’s Foundation, the nonprofit which receives the funds, gives threequarters to the Wells Center for Pediatric Research at the IU School of Medicine for research and gives the remaining quarter to clinical care at the Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis.

The amount raised annually sets a new record almost every year. Contributors gave $4.2 million in 2018. According to IUDM’s Facebook page, the annual Day of Hope topped last year’s record by raising over $650,000 in just 24 hours.

There is no doubt that IUDM members have done an immense amount of good.

On the personal level, the fundraising and planning for the event has built strong community among participants.

The Indiana Daily Student has published several accounts, in story quotations and columns, since the 1990s expressing how IUDM “changed my life” or provided a sense of community. Moreover, the parents of patients at Riley Children’s Hospital express gratitude for the dancers being kind to their children.

At the same time, for many students, IUDM represents large problems on the national and local levels.

The first problem is an expensive national health care system which is dependent on philanthropy.

One study from researchers at Harvard University confirmed the oft-cited fact that the United States spends almost twice as much per capita as other high-income countries, despite having worse health outcomes. The hidden costs of American health care include philanthropic efforts on both large and small scales.

Crowdsourcing for medi-

cal funding has become ubiquitous. According to GoFundMe, more than $650 million raised each year goes to medical expenses. The CEO said this year that 1 in every 3 GoFundMe donations goes toward medical care.

A report from Giving USA and the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy indicates that health philanthropy plays a major part in a philanthropy haul worth over $400 billion annually. According to a commentary published in the Journal of American Medicine, “exceptional philanthropy” has increased, with individual Americans donating hundreds of billions of dollars each year without reliable scientific or societal oversight.

Such philanthropy cannot ensure funds appropriately support scientific merit, independent research or societal equity.

Improving the American health care system will be the work of young people. One would not be remiss in expressing a hope that an IUDM participant offers an equal effort in reforming the national health care system. The discussion has raged on Twitter, but it does not provide satisfying answers.

The second problem IUDM represents is local: Students and community mem-

bers experience divisions along cultural and class lines.

The cultural division runs along old battle lines: IUDM has long been associated with the greek community at IU. Students have been torn about IUDM’s connection to greek life for decades. In an IDS piece from 2000, a greek student called for a partial boycott of IUDM as a way to protest the IU administration, saying, “Fraternities and sororities have taken enough abuse from this University.” The idea was met with a column in response, which was titled, “Dance Marathon not a battleground.” Another IDS columnist argued, “fraternities and sororities do not make the campus and are not the sum of IU’s major functions such as Dance Marathon.”

The perception that IUDM is quintessentially greek has lasted, even if the claim that IUDM is a greek activity is probably overstated. Since the Residence Hall Association and IUDM created a residence hall team in 2008, the RHA team has been the most successful fundraising team, outperforming the fraternity in second place by almost 7 to 1. However, a relatively small fraction of the total pot will be filled by the RHA team when compared to the greek sum.

The core of the perceived conflict rests on the conundrum stated by the IDS Editorial Board in 2014: “While fraternities do plenty of good, some also display severe issues in their culture that can’t be overlooked by how much money is raised at IU’s Dance Marathon.”

Over the last 20 years, IUDM has been used as one of the default reasons to argue for a more positive image for greek students and for IDS staffers to contend that reporting of greek activities has been fair.

“The complaint ... is that the IDS unfairly represents the greek community,” wrote two IDS staffers in 2006.

IUDM can help outweigh that, the idea goes. One columnist in 2002 wrote that IUDM changed her view of the entire greek community. Another writer in 2013, praising greek philanthropy, agrees: “Those freshmen who decided to opt out of going greek this year might want to reconsider.”

The local division also falls along the lines of socioeconomic class.

Students from more affluent economic backgrounds have an advantage in the fundraising competition. The IUDM donations website, which displays the highestfundraising participants and teams, shows the top 20 par-

ticipants this year have generally received a large amount of funds from family members.

Calculations indicate that each member on average has received nearly $1,200 from donors with the same last name or from people identifying as mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, cousins or grandparents.

It is not true that IUDM participation is only for students from wealthy or highincome families. It is true that its runaway success can be partly attributed to its networking with the rich. Then again, so is most philanthropy.

The IUDM corporate brochure reports that 100% of the reported fundraising total goes to the Riley Children’s Foundation. One might ask, how does IUDM pay for operational needs and social activities? At the time of publication, IUDM had not responded to a request for information about the operational budget.

There is one more complication: canning, the common practice of standing along well-trafficked streets asking pedestrians for cash for IUDM. Signs on Kirkwood Avenue placed by the city of Bloomington urge pedestrians to discourage panhandling. After the controversial removal of homeless people

in Bloomington from Peoples Park, a new line of discourse arose: What is the difference between canning and panhandling?

Some students, including past members of student government, have argued there is no difference. The debate is about class division and how society treats the poor, not about a belief that canning for IUDM is truly harmful.

An IDS columnist wrote the week before IUDM two years ago that “it is high time that some people stop cynically tearing these people and this organization down.” Despite such sentiments, it may be true that IUDM will face an increasingly uphill battle with persuading others to join the cause.

Disdain for IUDM may be slightly misplaced, but the discomfort speaks to a desire for cures for large problems in our community and society.

In short, IUDM is a symptom of problems in Bloomington and the United States.

Are there cures to these problems? Or stated more precisely: Will we have a hospital system which never needs philanthropy? Will the fraternity and sorority members ever be unified with the rest of the student body?

Only time will tell. tpsweene@iu.edu

THE ELECTIVE PERSPECTIVE

I felt duped by Pete Buttigieg’s deceptive change of his campaign Max Sandefer is a sophomore in political science and Spanish.

On April 13, 2019, I donated my first $6.23 to Pete Buttigieg’s presidential campaign.

Inspired by the birthday of his husband, Chasten (6/23), this one-time donation eventually became a monthly affair.

A total of $24.92 and four months later, I decided to stop donating to him — and thank goodness I did. I feel as if his campaign is a husk of what it was when I had supported him, and I was outright deceived by his swift pivot to the right well into his campaign.

Pete had me hooked in the beginning. As a politically active member of the LGBTQ+ community from Indiana myself, I instantly felt a strong connection to the man. I even tweeted out in March that I believed “deep in my heart that Pete is going to do big things.” Being touted as a progressive certainly helped too, as the one-term moderate Sen. Joe Donnelly (D-Indiana) wasn’t the most exciting politician for me to look up to.

His initial statements and headlines certainly reflected a progressive outlook. He was one of the first candidates to go all-in in his support to

abolish the electoral college all the way back in January, claimed to be unabashed in his support for medicare-forall, and went as far to say that the GOP will call Democrats “crazy socialists” no matter what policies they support, so they should adopt more leftleaning ones.

Seeing him in person, too, I was captivated by his story and eloquence when he spoke. I was marching to the beat of Pete’s drum as he rose in the polls nationally.

Unfortunately, the drum soon lost its timbre.

Whether it was learning in greater detail about Pete’s fundamental mishandling with minority rights and problems within his own town of South Bend or telling a Black Lives Matter protester that he’s “not asking for [their] vote” I was falling off the bandwagon quick and fast around June.

The breaking point, oddly enough, came when Pete announced his national service plan. Through the plan, I learned that he had proposed earlier that it should be mandatory. Making this mandatory stood against the right to personal autonomy which I hold near and dear to my heart.

I just couldn’t defend him

anymore. I was so tired of it. I think back to the anti-war, anti-conscription protests of the 1960s and see the subversion of progress a service plan like his would bring. Nationalism would run amok. This along with his problematic history with minority groups as mayor of South Bend all reek of the incapability to lead and for me to question who he’s actually fighting for.

Funny enough, the worst was yet to come in the selfredefining of Pete.

He completely pulled a 180 on his healthcare plan.

He adopted an opt-in program instead of Medicarefor-all plan like he espoused earlier, and he didn’t stop there. He even attacked primary opponent Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) for her progressive Medicarefor-all plan. He even uses the overdone GOP talking point of asking, “How are you going to pay for it?”

It’s sad to see how comfortably Pete has fit in with the other establishment candidates. It’s the same opportunism as always. I even wonder if his progressive credentials at the beginning of his campaign were all a complete fabrication.

Did he truly shift some of his policies while on the

campaign trail, or did he masquerade as a progressive at first simply to rise in the polls and then pivot to calculated milquetoast moderatism?

Either way, I don’t see myself in him anymore. I see a flashing warning sign instead.

I don’t want to be like Pete, compromising my integrity for a few percentage points in the polls. I want to be authentically me if I ever run for office, whether the voters like me or not.

I look back at Pete like an ex-boyfriend. Everything seemed so perfect at the time.

Sure, he had his flaws,but we were in this fight together. Yet, as time went on, I realized that we wanted two different things and began to see him for who he really is. After splitting, I can’t help but feel deceived and upset by all the time and money I wasted on him. The spark is gone and in its place is a dull, shell of a man.

I should have seen it coming. All the warning signs were there, and even my friends were warning me. But I wouldn’t listen; my head was stuck in the clouds. It was around July when I officially stopped supporting Pete, and my opinion of him has only lowered as he’s reinvented his campaign into a centrist Biden-alternative. Better late than never, I guess. maxsande@iu.edu
