IDS Academic adviser, IU alumna Kim Hinton dies at 47

By Christine Stephenson cistephe@iu.edu | @cistephenson23

Kim Hinton, an academic adviser for the Departments of Gender Studies, Classical Studies and Theatre, Drama, and Contemporary Dance, died suddenly from a pulmonary embolism Feb. 26.

She was 47.

Hinton received a master’s degree in Russian literature and a Ph.D. in theater history, theory and literature from IU. She started her academic advising career in 2007 in the Departments of Anthropology and East Asian Languages and Cultures. Hinton switched departments in 2011.

Hinton rarely advised individual students more than a few times a year, yet several students said they felt at home as soon as

they walked into her office.

“Every interaction was personal to us, but she was probably like that with, like, a million people,” junior Megan Kudla said.

Senior Amanda Hoover, a double major in contemporary dance and cinema and media arts, said she would not graduate on time without Hinton’s help.

“You could suggest the craziest things, and she would find some way to make it all work,” she said. “She was like a miracle worker.”

Although academic advisers often take the role of an emotional supporter for students, Hinton’s students generally carried an extra layer of stress.

As a contemporary dance student, sophomore Chelsea Kummeth spends most days running from classes to rehearsals that

usually last several hours. She said Hinton always provided stress relief.

“She was always there if I needed to rant,” she said. “She could always tell when I was stressed just by looking at me.”

Kummeth said she was planning on visiting Hinton in her office Tuesday.

Elizabeth Shea, director of contemporary dance, has an office right next to Hinton and saw her nearly every day.

She said Hinton always came into work with a positive attitude.

“She saw countless students day in and day out, and I never heard her say one mean thing,” she said. “Not one negative, nasty thing, ever.”

‘Nothing has been done’ Indianapolis March for Our Lives rally seeks more reform

By Lydia Gerike lgerike@iu.edu | @lydiagerike

INDIANAPOLIS — Students crowded near a microphone at the top of a side staircase at the Indiana Statehouse for the 2019 Indianapolis March For Our Lives rally to make sure news cameras saw their messages.

They held signs with phrases like “it’s a school zone not a war zone,” and “bullets are not school supplies."

About 200 people gathered Saturday for the second annual Indianapolis rally. It was smaller than last year’s event, which took place inside the statehouse.

Many advocates said they feel there has been little effort

to improve gun safety since the March For Our Lives movement originally rose up last year in response to the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that killed 17 people.

Where the national movement often addresses school and mass shootings, the speakers in Indianapolis this year tried to also bring attention to the gun violence that affects some communities on a regular basis.

Tony Leadford, an eighth grader at Chapel Hill Seventh and Eighth Grade Center, came forward to talk about how a football teammate and his sister

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

IU rolls past Purdue 73-51 on Senior Day

By Stefan Krajisnik stefkraj@iu.edu | @skrajisnik3

Chants of “We want Withrow” came from various sections in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall during the fourth quarter of Sunday afternoon’s women’s basketball game between IU and Purdue.

The crowd’s wish came true amidst the Hoosiers rolling past the Boilermakers 73-51 and the fans seeking walk-on senior Grace Withrow to check into the game.

The IU faithful got what they wanted as Withrow checked in with 1:50 remaining on Senior Day and made her way to the free throw line less than a minute later.

She split the pair and then checked out with 25 seconds remaining to receive one final ovation.

“You’re always hoping when you go into games like this that you have an opportunity to take your seniors

out and allow the crowd to give them those ovations,” IU Coach Teri Moren said.

Withrow’s free throw was the final point on an afternoon where IU’s offense came with ease.

After losing Tuesday in disappointing fashion to Northwestern, IU came out hot against its rival.

“It was kinda a pride thing,” junior guard Ali Patberg said. “That’s not how our team plays. That’s not how our program is supposed to represent the university. We needed to come out the way we’re supposed to play, and we did.”

The Hoosiers have struggled getting out to strong starts at times this season, but they started the day shooting 5-for-7 before the first media timeout.

On Saturday IU men’s swim and dive won its 27th Big Ten championship in program history.

This marks the first Big Ten three-peat since 1983-85, as well as the first time IU has ever won both the men’s and women’s Big Ten swim and dive championships in the same year.

IU was led by senior Vini Lanza and senior James Connor. Lanza earned his third Swimmer of the Championships award, the only man in Big Ten history to do so.

Connor earned the Diver of the Championships honors and contributed to IU’s 13 first place finishes throughout the meet.

“He gave an inspired performance, and it’s no coincidence that three out of the four years that James has dove for us we’ve won titles,” Head Diving Coach Drew Johansen said.

Relay victories padded IU’s lead throughout the week with wins in the 800 freestyle, 400 medley, 200 freestyle and 400 freestyle. All relays qualified for the national championships with NCAA A cut times.

The 800 freestyle time of 6:11.02 for IU was the second fastest in the nation and the 200 freestyle relay team of seniors Zach Apple and Lanza, freshman Brandon Hamblin and sophomore Bruno Blaskovic set IU, Big Ten meet and conference records with a time of 1:16.01.

Two IU swimmers swept their respective events with sophomore Gabriel Fantoni on the butterfly and senior Ian Finnerty on breaststroke.

Fantoni won both the 100 and 200 backstroke with times of 44.91 and 1:39.28 respectively. The former marked his personal best in the event and the latter established a new Big Ten record.

Last year’s conference and national breaststroke champion Finnerty swept both the 100 (50.77) and 200 events (1:50.30) with NCAA A cuts. Finnerty became the first man in conference history to win the 100 breaststroke four consecutive years. His time on the 200 also established the fastest time in Big Ten history.

Lanza, took first with NCAA A cut and Big Ten record breaking performances in the 200 individual medley and 200 butterfly. His performance in the butterfly set a school record and was also the fastest time in the nation this year.

Finally, in addition to his part in IU’s four winning relays, Apple took first in the 200 freestyle with a time of 1:32.69. This was a NCAA B Cut and his personal best.

For the IU divers, Connor and sophomore Andrew Capobianco placed first and second respectively with NCAA Zones Qualifying scores on both the 1- and 3-meter dives. IU will go into the NCAA competition undefeated in the springboard events this season.

BFD returns from training trip in Sierra Leone

By Alex Hardgrave ahardgra@iu.edu | @a_hardgrave

Four firefighters from the Bloomington Fire Department spent eight days in Sierra Leone the first week of February training, teaching fire safety and prevention and working with local officials.

BFD serves about 85,000 people with about a $14 million budget. Sierra Leone National Fire Force in Sierra Leone serves about 2 million people with no funding.

Fire Chief Jason Moore said this project started when Eastina Taylor, a past IU Mandela Washington Fellow from Sierra Leone, told Moore about losing her family in a fire and urged him to help improve her country’s fire program.

“Most of us in fire service, when someone asks for help, we don’t say no,” Moore said.

“We just say we’ll figure out how to do it.”

The Sierra Leone fire force uses donated trucks and gear, some of which are outdated equipment from other countries, Moore said. Many firefighters wear chemistry goggles instead of face shields.

Rags or sponges over their mouths are their only protection from the smoke. Many don’t have gloves.

BFD Fire Prevention Officer Tom Figolah packed one of his suitcases with gloves, flashlights and hoods to give to the fire force. They didn’t

want to donate other gear until they assessed what the force needed.

By receiving a grant from the International Research and Exchanges organization, a grant from the Community Foundation of Bloomington and Monroe County and raising about $2,000 in private donations from GoFundMe and a benefit dinner, they figured out how.

IREX doubled the original grant because they liked the project, giving the depart-

ment about $9,700 so four firefighters were able to go rather than the originally planned two.

“That exponentially increased what we could accomplish there, having multiple teams of people being able to function at the same time,” said Litwin.

The Sierra Leone fire force has to leave the scene of a fire, sometimes for 30 minutes, to refill its water when it runs out.

The citizens do not under-

stand this, Moore said. They see the firefighters not doing their jobs.

“You’ve got to keep your head on a swivel when you’re on a fire scene there because people throw rocks at you because they’re mad you didn’t save their house, or you’re not saving their family,” Moore said.

The Bloomington team made a list of about 25 tasks it wanted to accomplish while there, with the realistic hope of getting one or

two done. Some of the tasks included sharing practices to mitigate emergencies and fire prevention education.

Moore said they accomplished more than 30.

They had only about three months to plan the trip.

There were many points when the trip seemed doomed. Figolah was unable to find his medical records. Litwin got sick and had to get his immunizations at the last minute.

Firefighter Jonathan Young had a vacation the week before, giving him about three days between the two trips.

When the group arrived to the Indianapolis airport, its flight was canceled.

After 32 hours of flying, driving and riding a boat into the country, the group finally made it.

When they arrived, they saw a place ravaged by a past civil war, Ebola outbreak and deadly mudslides.

The Bloomington firefighters brought prevention education pamphlets and flash drives with training lessons and videos on them.

Moore worked with the Sierra Leone fire force chief to set up a database log.

With a computerized shared database, Moore said he can help the force apply for grants and funding. The force only had paper logs before.

“It was more than just developing professional relationships,” Litwin said. “I feel I made true friends over there, and it was extremely rewarding.”

BFD hopes to bring two Sierra Leonean firefighters to Bloomington to train.

“The immediate result was impressive I think, but the future of what we can accomplish with them moving forward is pretty exciting,” Litwin said.

City pays for guards, cleanup at plant IUSG passes two

changes to Election Code

The City of Bloomington Utilities has increased security at the decommissioned Griffy Water Treatment Plant. There are now 24-hour guards in front of the building.

By Lilly St. Angelo lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang

Griffy Water Treatment Plant has been decommissioned for 23 years but is costing the city hundreds of thousands of dollars in cleanup because of mercury released by trespassers.

City of Bloomington Utilities first discovered mercury in 2017 and hired a contractor for environmental cleanup. In summer 2018, CBU found more mercury in a different part of the building.

They realized the mercury was coming from equipment broken by trespassers. No cases of mercury poisoning were reported.

“If the vandals weren’t in there and hadn’t broken some of the equipment, the mercury would never have been released,” said James Hall, assistant director of environmental programs for City of Bloomington Utilities.

“People were just tearing stuff up to tear stuff up.”

Last July, the city announced it was hiring guards

and installing night lighting to prevent the recently discovered mercury from leaving the decommissioned building's premises. They began environmental cleanup on the new mercury found.

The city has spent roughly $140,000 on security guards, about $40,000 on temporary night lighting, $8,500 on permanent night lighting and $340,000 on the environmental cleanup since July, Hall said.

While cleaning up mercury inside the building, mercury was also found outside the building, which has made cleanup take longer than expected.

Next week, the city will send the initial site investigation plan to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management. The plan details everything the city has done so far to clean up the area and all the data it collected from testing.

IDEM will provide feedback on what the city has done and what more it needs to do. They might say, for ex-

ample, the city needs to do more testing in certain areas.

Hall said he expects at least nine more months of work and an additional $200,000 to $400,000 will be needed to complete the cleanup.

Hall said there are many factors that contribute to the process of environmental cleanup such as contractors schedules, communicating with IDEM and weather, which has prevented workers from cleaning up the subbasement of the building that is severely floods when it rains.

“We’re moving as fast as we can,” Hall said. “We’re doing everything we can.”

The decommissioned water treatment plant used to filter water from Griffy Lake to make it drinkable. The city has kept the plant for years in case it needed to reopen it, Hall said.

“It kind of got put on the backburner,” Hall said.

Now, the city is considering two different futures for the plant: selling it or demolishing it.

But first, the environmental cleanup must be finished.

Hall said they tested three layers of the ground around the plant and identified all areas outside the plant where mercury levels were above contamination levels.

“It was mostly in that zero to six inches that we found the mercury,” Hall said.

Freshman Bella Realey said she has friends who recently went to the decommissioned plant late at night to check it out, and she was surprised they found security guards there.

Hall said the guards encounter frequent visitors to the site. Realey said she thinks it’s the draw of an abandoned building that makes people go there.

In addition to the security keeping mercury from being carried off the premise, guards are also there because of the water in the building, which is a safety hazard, Hall said. If a trespasser were to fall into the sub basement, water would be 14 to 15 feet deep.

IU Student Government recently passed two changes to its Election Code. The changes will apply to the IUSG executive elections at the end of March.

The revisions will change the executive ticket to include only the president and vice president by name and will remove sections of the Election Code from the IUSG Constitution. This simplified the Election Code into one document instead of two to help candidates better understand the Election Code.

“The object of the code is to keep the elections fair and unbiased for all candidates,” commissioner Kathleen Gonzales said.

Reducing the ticket to two names will make it more accessible to students, senior and Election Commission chair Hannah Eaton said. The ticket previously listed the president, vice president of administration, vice president of Congress and treasurer.

“Students aren’t always really familiar with student government, so anything we can do to make it more personal to them we want to do to try to raise more awareness about what they’re doing,” Eaton said.

The Election Commission, which enforces the election rules, is a group of about 11 students within IUSG, Eaton said.

Constitutional changes require a two-thirds majority vote in Congress on a proposed resolution.

Once the two-thirds vote is achieved, it goes to a referendum vote of the student

IU expects to house interested students

By Lexi Haskell ldhaskel@iu.edu | @lexi_haskell

Despite previous concerns, IU anticipates it will be able secure Residential Programs and Services housing next year for every student who has requested it, even those on the waitlist, spokesperson Chuck Carney said.

The university will not have enough beds for all non-freshmen to have the option to live on campus next year after mold was

found in residence halls last semester. IU is accelerating renovations on Foster and McNutt quads because of the mold, closing about 2,400 on-campus beds.

IU will operate 1,085 beds in the Reserve on Third, Park on Morton and Smallwood on College apartment complexes next year to make up for the loss. Online preference forms were due Feb. 15 for those interested in these complexes. Students who requested new RPS

contracts last fall were guaranteed apartments in these complexes, Carney said, and students who didn't request new contracts in the fall would be put on a waitlist.

After students with contracts were placed, any open spots would then go to students on the waitlist.

The students on the waitlist weren't guaranteed housing.

But now, after all students with contracts and students on the waitlist had mutual roommate requests with

students with contracts have been placed, those on the waitlist are expected to have RPS-run housing, Carney said.

The remaining approximately 500 students on the waitlist — who don't have mutual roommate requests with students with contracts — are expected have a spot somewhere in housing, Carney said. Carney said he wasn’t sure when notifications will all be sent out, but the process will start soon.

body, which needs a majority vote to pass.

There are more constitutional changes in the works, Eaton said.

The Election Commission began revisions to the Election Code last fall, Eaton said.

The main change the Supreme Court worked on with the Election Commission this year was removing vote deductions, Eaton said. In past years, candidates could submit complaints if they thought their opponents violated the code.

If candidates were shown to be in violation, they would lose a percentage of votes.

“We felt that method was very undemocratic because it was taking away the students’ voice,” Eaton said.

She referenced a Wall Street Journal article published in April 2018 that talked about how colleges followed this tactic for vote deductions. IUSG wanted IU to be one of the first colleges to change the policy, Eaton said.

This year there will be a point system that categorizes rule violations with different points awarded for each violation. If a candidate receives 10 points in rule violations, he or she will be disqualified.

“So this year will be kind of an experiment to see if the new system we came up with works,” Eaton said.

Candidates also now have 48 hours to submit complaints following a code violation rather than not having a time constraint like before, Eaton said.

IU Outdoor Adventures emphasizes community

By Jenna Williams jnw9@iu.edu | @jnwilliams18

IU Outdoor Adventures will take two trips over spring break: one to the Ozarks in Arkansas and one to the Rio Grande.

The Rio Grande adventure trip will be a 10-day excursion canoeing along the rapids of the river in Texas, while the Ozarks adventure will be a 9-day trip spent climbing and backpacking.

The trips also emphasize community building, graduate assistant Sam Iatarola said.

The organization aims to connect students to themselves, the outdoors, the world and others, Iatarola said while walking through IUOA’s headquarters in Eigenmann Residence Hall.

The space is filled with whitewater kayaks, recreational canoes, paddleboards, bikes, skiis and many other kinds of outdoor gear.

There is a kitchen where trip leaders pack food for their trips, a wall with a whiteboard detailing IUOA’s programs and listing upcoming academic and non-academic courses, an 11-foot bouldering wall where students can climb and a classroom for teaching and trip meetings.

“We do a lot of education through different experiential activities that promote fun, learning and/or growth through all of them,” Iatarola said.

IUOA leads outdoor trips

that range from one day excursions to Lake Lemon, a reservoir about 10 miles from Bloomington, to weeklong excursions to California to climb Yosemite, White said.

Many trips are created to be beginner-friendly, though each entails mental and physical challenges students should be aware of when registering, according to the IUOA website.

The organization also offers rentals for students who want to adventure on their own, facilitates teambuilding activities for student and staff groups on campus, organizes workshops and teaches academic classes.

“IUOA does a lot to support students in leadership development and community development,” White said.

“Since I joined IU Outdoor Adventures, I’ve learned so much about not just the outdoors but about myself.”

Iatarola also spoke of IUOA’s leadership opportunities. He has been involved with IUOA for five years, since he was a freshman.

“There’s so many different benefits, experiences and learnings that can happen through this program in so many different ways,” he said.

His favorite activity is whitewater kayaking, but IUOA offers dozens of activities.

“IU Outdoor Adventures has something for everyone, regardless of your experience or background,” he said. “We

are completely open to every single student.”

IUOA seeks to bring people together, Iatarola said.

“This program is really more of a family,” said trip leader and senior Keirsten White. She spoke of how close members become after participating, especially during the adventure trips.

Assistant program coor-

dinator Tyler Kivland said discovering new places and skills is his favorite part.

“I’m a teacher at heart, so I love seeing somebody discover something new for themselves,” Kivland said.

IUOA’s courses and adventure trips are set up as experiential learning, Kivland said. This type of learning promotes hands-on instruc-

tion.

“Seeing someone being in an environment where they didn’t think they could accomplish the challenges ahead, and seeing them do that and seeing the lessons they learn along the way is priceless,” Kivland said.

Watching the trip leaders help others learn and learn themselves is part of that

concept, he said.

“The bond that the students make with each other by the end is amazing because the friendships that people make on these trips often carry outside of the trips,” trip leader Cassie Holtel said. “For myself, I found some of my most genuine friendships through being in Outdoor Adventures.”

Taiwan Day teaches about Hamilton, Barge visit IU, school culture in Taiwan debate affordable housing

IU students learned about growing up in Taiwan during Taiwan Day Sunday.

The East Asian Studies Center and the Taiwanese Student Association organized the second year of the event in the Global and International Studies Building to give IU and the Bloomington community a glimpse into Taiwanese culture.

“We’re very proud of our culture and our diverse society and complicated history,” said Fei-Hsien Wang, an assistant professor in the IU history department. “But we find in general that people at IU don’t know very much about Taiwan.”

Last year Taiwan Day looked at Taiwanese street life. This year the event explored the culture through the lens of elementary, middle and high school life in Taiwan.

“We have a lot of students at IU from Taiwan,” Wang said. “And their school life experience was very different from the school experience here.”

The open house-style event displayed red, blue and white Taiwanese school uniforms, over-the-shoulder book bags and the chemistry and physics workbooks Taiwanese Student Association president Sharon Hsu used in high school.

Wang said the event al-

Mayor John Hamilton and mayoral candidate Amanda Barge debated affordable housing Tuesday night in an unusual location: a classroom.

Both Democratic candidates in the 2019 Bloomington mayoral primaries came to campus for the first time together to speak at IU Habitat for Humanity’s Meet the Candidates event at Hodge Hall. The primary election will take place May 7 with absentee voting beginning April 9. A student moderator from IU Habitat for Humanity and people from the audience asked questions.

Freshman Joe Bergin, IU Student Government’s deputy student liaison to city government, said it was refreshing for city officials to include students in the conversation.

“It’s no secret that students face the same challenges that other Bloomington residents face with housing,” Bergin said.

People who earn $0 to $40,000 or $50,000 a year need affordable housing in Bloomington, Hamilton said.

The candidates discussed the displacement of more than 1,000 students offcampus from the closing of McNutt and Foster Quads.

Hamilton talked about the loss of housing for others in the community because of

lowed students to relate to the similarities and appreciate the differences between school in Taiwan and in the United States.

In addition to the educational memorabilia, the event also highlighted the social aspects of school life in Taiwan. Attendees played student-created games that are featured at Taiwanese school fairs.

“Sometimes when people think about Asian culture, they think about how a lot of Asian kids are really good at math or super smart,” Hsu said. “But I think this kind of helps prevent that stereotype.

It shows the fun side.”

The Taiwanese Student Association’s executive board performed at the event to represent dances Taiwanese high school students would typically do on dance teams or in their spare time. They

also donned uniforms that are worn at two high schools in Taiwan.

“A big part of Taiwanese school life is that students are involved in dance teams, and they do performances,” Hsu said. “We wanted to bring that to the eyes of the public and pick songs that represent vibrant, cheerful school life.”

Attendees were also invited to watch a short animated film called “On Happiness Road.” It showed a young girl’s first day at an elementary school in Taiwan.

Senior Eric Lo and graduate student Jennie Chen said the event is important to provide awareness to those who may not know much about the small country.

“It’s great to celebrate some of the Taiwanese culture and heritage that people don’t typically see throughout the campus,” Lo said.

the extra students that would normally live on campus.

Barge sympathized with the students required to change their housing plans.

Exchanges got heated on certain topics such as cooperation between the city and county government to create affordable housing, the amount of affordable housing funded by the city versus the county and the planning involved in building affordable housing.

Barge, currently a county commissioner, said if elected she would pause and look at how much affordable housing the city needs and how much it would cost. She would listen to people in the community and collaborate with developers to make a plan.

Hamilton said he supports housing plans but sees the need to act quickly on urgent issues, such as homelessness.

“We didn’t need a plan to know that that is a big issue in the city,” Hamilton said.

Barge accused Hamilton of not having a plan for the Affordable Housing Fund, money to support the building of affordable housing in the community collected by the city from developers. She said making the plan for the fund must involve the county.

“The public deserves to know when we will get there.”

Barge said.

Hamilton shot back that the city came out with a plan

for the fund in 2016 and has already used some of the funds to build affordable housing. He said the city has facilitated the creation of 600 bedrooms of affordable housing during his term.

“My question is how much has the county created in the past two years you’ve been in charge?” Hamilton asked Barge.

Barge argued the county government does not have the same ability to facilitate the construction of affordable housing because development requires infrastructure from the city, and attempts at collaboration have not been successful.

“The only way the county is going to make affordable housing is if the city and the county work together to provide infrastructure,” Barge said.

While the county has land to build affordable housing, Hamilton said infrastructure costs are high.

“Land is important, but you have to have the funding to do it,” he said.

Freshman Brooks Passarelli, a student in the audience, talked after the event about students’ knowledge of what goes on in the Bloomington community.

“I think it’s really important for students to know about the community of Bloomington," Passarelli said.

“And I think it’s important for us to know how we affect the community as well.”

NARROWING IN WITH NISHANT

THOUGHT POCKET

Proposal for universal child care needed in US

From multivitamins to Muscle Milk, we must regulate substances

Nishant Mohile is a junior in international studies and economics.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., unveiled a major proposal to provide universal child care last week with the potential to dramatically transform American society.

Warren’s plan would have the federal government partner with states, tribes, nonprofits, and other entities to create a network of child care centers available to every family. Child care would be free for families earning below 200 percent of the federal poverty line of $51,500. Wealthier families would bear some costs. This bill has the right approach in dealing with the burden of child care.

The cost of child care in Indiana is $8,918 annually.

Comparatively, in-state tuition at IU costs $10,680 annually, only $1,700 higher with a degree at the end. Does this mean university is a good deal or child care is a bad one?

Could it mean both?

Child care costs have increased by 24 percent in the past decade. The Department of Health and Human Services labels child care costing over 10 percent of household income as unaffordable.

Warren’s plan would charge no families over 7 percent.

This proposal would cost $70 billion a year and be fully financed by her proposed wealth tax.

Currently, 40 percent of children spend some time in the care of someone who

is not a parent. Warren’s bill would certainly help them.

What about stay-at-home mothers? Here, the answer is not so favorable.

Warren’s bill would help mothers enter the labor force while leaving stay-at-home mothers out. This isn’t right.

A rival proposal from the People’s Policy Project would provide stay-at-home mothers with the money it would cost to send their children to a public center. Women’s labor is not free, and they should be paid for the work that they do.

Paying for otherwise unpaid household work could even marginally reduce the gender wage gap.

Warren’s proposal would not only revolutionize society at large but also have a massive impact on universities

such as IU. IU has some high-quality child care centers, but that doesn’t mean the system is working. Julie Beasley, the Parent-Student for the Graduate and Professional Student Government, commented from in a personal regard, saying it took 18 months for her son to simply get off the waiting list.

IU cannot claim to be a meritocracy if potential students are kept from education due to issues having nothing to do with their academic abilities.

Child care is also deeply personal. Beasley said she had peace of mind knowing that her son was being cared for well by people she trusts to do so. Having access to affordable childcare lets student-parents be both better students and

workers.

Students are made brighter by having smart classmates who require child care services and could otherwise not attend. Additionally, faculty and graduate students can develop and deliver class materials better when they not worrying about whether their kids are safe or not.

Lastly, we should not stop at just child care. IU should develop support mechanisms for student-parents, working with them to make sure that child care emergencies don’t force them to leave.

Being a parent is hard, and being a student-parent doubly so. IU should do all that it can to make sure that it is a place where student-parents thrive. nmohile@iu.edu

JAC’S FACTS

IU fails to combat on-campus discrimination Jaclyn Ferguson is a sophomore in journalism.

The discrimination students of color experience at IU has not sufficiently improved recently. People might not be walking around wearing Ku Klux Klan attire, but racism is still alive and well on IU’s campus.

Last October, there was a deadly shooting at an offcampus Halloween party hosted by Kappa Alpha Psi, which is one of the nine historically black fraternities.

Although it was not on campus, the majority of people at the party were black IU students.

In response, IU administrators implemented several resources for students including free Counseling and Psychological Services services and walk-in counseling at the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center.

The university responded well to this devastating situation.

Having a swift response in situations regarding marginalized minority students should not only occur during times of crisis, though. Focusing on the

needs of minority populations overwhelmingly during traumatic times but minimally on a day to day basis is unacceptable and perpetuates division.

Although there are resources throughout campus, IU is not doing enough to fully combat the problem.

IU is a predominantly white institution in Bloomington, which is in an area that has a dense history of racism.

It is just 30 minutes away from arguably one of the most racist towns in Indiana: Martinsville.

On Dec. 26, 1968, the Black Market, a shop that sold books, clothing, records and artwork of Africans and African-Americans, was bombed by the Ku Klux Klan.

People often say, “history repeats itself,” but this history is not repetitive. Discrimination at IU has barely had the chance to become history, because it has been ever-present Just earlier this month, black IU junior Henok Tesfay was walking down Third Street when a group of white students flicked him off.

Tesfay said when he acknowledged them they proceeded to call him the n-word.

Many students have reported hearing “white power”

chanted at parties.

Former IU student Pamela Wilhoite said she had to withdraw because racism and discrimination had such an impact on her well-being.

Wilhoite was studying to receive a master of social work at the IU School of Social Work, but said that after continuous discrimination, stereotyping and microaggressions she withdrew last October.

During a cognitive behavioral therapy lab, a professor said she sounded like a “black mom.”

After the situation, Wilhoite said she believes she did not receive proper resources and support to attempt to work through these troubling words and actions.

The non-inclusive environment caused Wilhoite’s mental health to deteriorate.

Wilhoite believes this comes down to a huge lack of support. She talked to other students of color who finished the program, and they had the same experience.

“It’s just not a welcoming or supportive environment,” she said. “Grad program or not,” Discrimination against students of color is too preva-

lent to continue to be swept under the rug.

There are resources such as a bias incident reporting, through the Dean of Students: Division of Student Affairs, where students are able to make a report based on an incident where an individual is targeted in a discriminatory way.

Additionally, the Student Advocates Office works to “assist students in resolving personal and academic problems so that they may maintain progress toward earning a degree.”

These are good resources for students, but it is difficult to believe the university is doing enough when discrimination at IU continues.

There should be additional resources implemented.

Maybe students who discriminate against blacks could be required to attend cultural awareness classes or take part in community service toward an organization benefiting people of color.

This will only happen when there is a real sense of urgency on the fight against prejudice, specifically against people of color. jaraferg@iu.edu

IS IT JUST ME, OR...

Child brides should be a bigger issue in Indiana Ally Melnik is a freshman in journalism.

Imagine being 16 again.

It’s sophomore year of high school and you’re starting to figure yourself out. But what if that all ended because your parents consented to you being married?

This is still a rare reality in America today.

Donna Pollard was a child bride in Tennessee in 2000 — Pollard’s mother consented to her being married to a 31-year-old man when she was 16 — and lived her teenage life in Indiana, where she’s now trying to change the marital consent age.

Although the age of sexual consent is 16 in Indiana, 15-year-olds can get married as long as they have parental and judicial consent. And in 2017, according to the Pollard story, “95 teens aged 15 to 17

were married. Of those, 78 were girls and 17 were boys.”

While the title “child bride” gives me visions of girls on “Little House on the Prairie”, or perhaps of girls living in an impoverished third-world country, it is still very much a phenomenon in modern-day U.S., albeit an uncommon one.

According to Indiana Legal Services, 17-year-olds can get married with just parental consent; however, 15 and 16-year-olds can get married with consent and a court order to issue a marriage license, but the majority of these people are usually getting married because they are expecting or already have a child.

Typically, those under 18 can’t get married unless they have parental consent, otherwise those involved would have to petition to a court as to why their marriage would be of the best interest.

While 95 may seem like a lot of minor marriages in 2017, Indiana is actually not one of the higher ranking states.

Alabama, Kentucky, West Virginia and Idaho are the states with the highest rates of minor marriages; these states also have high levels of poverty.

In addition, these states are home to individuals who see marriage as the solution to teens having sex out of wedlock. Some even push for marriage when a pregnancy results from a statutory rape.

While I don’t agree with it, I can understand how marrying your daughter off to hopefully get her out of poverty would be a not-completelyinsane idea. But I can’t condone it if it’s totally old-school, where you trade your daughter for a flock of sheep.

However, the idea of marrying your daughter to her rapist is absurd. It shouldn’t

be a matter of whether or not he got her pregnant; if she was sexually assaulted, he should not become her spouse — that would only open the floodgates to years of abuse.

Organizations such as Survivors’ Corner, formerchild bride Donna Pollard’s group, are attempting to raise the minimum marital age in each state. Pollard’s group, plus human rights activists like Unchained and Human Rights Watch, are also fighting to make sure a rapist isn’t allowed to marry their victim.

More work still needs to be done in order to change the fact that 17 states don’t have a minimum age for minors to marry, because — and I feel fairly confident in saying this — no 16-year-old is every ready to get married, no matter the circumstances. amelnik@iu.edu

The Food and Drug Administration recently announced efforts to strengthen its regulation of dietary supplements.

The FDA’s actions are a much-needed move to shed light on what can sometimes be a shady business. They are a signal to lawmakers that the FDA needs the resources to provide this kind of oversight.

The business behind dietary supplements is larger than many would think. The industry as a whole is worth $40 billion, with more than 50,000 products available.

Three out of four Americans take a dietary supplement on a regular basis according to the FDA. A 2015 article in the health journal Clinical Nutrition found that 66 percent of college students studied used a dietary supplement at least once a week, and college students appeared more likely to use dietary supplements than the general population.

Despite the industry’s size, dietary supplements are also a kind of a gray area for the FDA. It’s difficult to track products, especially when they’re sold on the internet. Moreover, producers of dietary supplements don’t have to tell the FDA what’s in them.

Dietary supplements sometimes market themselves as if they’re a drug, even though they’re not.

Strengthening the FDA’s oversight of dietary supplements prevents companies from spreading misinformation and marketing unsafe products.

Part of the FDA’s renewed efforts involved sending 12 warning letters and 5 advisory letters to companies who illegally claimed their dietary supplements could prevent, treat or cure diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes and cancer.

The FDA also plans to

update its new dietary ingredient notifications, or NDIs, which flag new ingredients for inspection. These compliance policies require manufacturers to alert the agency of any ingredients not sold in the US prior to 1994.

There are many cautionary tales of “dietary supplements gone rogue” that evidence the need for reform and expansions in oversight.

For example, the FDA has seized kratom imports and issued several warnings after 44 deaths were directly linked to kratom in 2017.

Kratom is a botanical chemical that has been marketed as an “opioid alternative” to fight opioid addiction, but these claims are built on little knowledge about the effects of its use. From these deaths, it’s clear that kratom is not safe, but it is marketed as if it were.

A similar story took place when the FDA declared supplements with highlyconcentrated caffeine to be unlawful, or when the agency warned that Rhino male enhancement products were adulterated with unlabeled drugs.

Although these actions are needed, I wonder if the FDA can also regulate supplements before they hit the market. As a consumer, I don’t want the warning after I’ve eaten something dangerous.

Dr. Peter Lurie, a former associate commissioner at the FDA, said that the agency had spent years debating policies that improve oversight of new dietary ingredients but had not released it.

At worst, the FDA’s announcements are an ineffective stunt that bring attention to concerns surrounding the dietary supplement industry. At best, the FDA’s announcements are a sincere attempt to create clarity. We need the agency to inform and guide the public in dietary decisions. tifxie@iu.edu

RACHEL’S REASONING

Dorms are a dreaded destination of disease Rachel Noll is a sophomore in journalism, nonprofit management and Spanish.

From the communal bathrooms to the hundreds of people pressing the elevator buttons everyday, your health is set up for failure the first day you move in to your residence hall.

Regardless of how many roommates you have, there is no master plan to stop the spread of germs and illnesses while living in the dorms.

It’s your first day of college. You are ready to have the time of your life while living in close quarters on a floor with more than 50 other people.

It’s supposed to be a party every night, right? You get to be with all your friends.

They’re laying right next to you, or are just one door down. No matter the time of day, there’s someone nearby who is ready to go on an adventure with you.

While this is true for some people, there is no doubt that their group will eventually experience thedestruction of flu season.

There’s no escaping it in the dorms.

It’s all fun and games until the cold weather hits and suddenly you watch your friends get hit with the stomach flu, pink eye, the mumps or other contagions.

That’s when you know it’s time to take shelter and

go under the radar for a few days. I knew this all too well while living in Eigenmann Hall last year. At one point, five of the people on my floor had the flu.

I did what I had to do and stayed quarantined in my room until the destruction was over, only leaving to seek food, use the restroom and occasionally sneak out to class.

However, if your roommate happens to come down with one of these illnesses, its game over for you. You can try to keep the shared items constantly cleaned, but with there only being about 30 feet between you each night, chances are you’re going to suffer too.

The dorms that have communal bathrooms get hit worse than all of them all.

Often times you will see the sick ones walk out without washing their hands, and you will witness them touch countless door knobs and appliances. There’s simply no avoiding it.

All you can do is walk fast with your head down and hope you make it to spring without getting sick, but anyone who has lived in a dorm can tell you it’s highly unlikely.

If you’ve made it this far and haven’t gotten sick yet, that is good news. Don’t worry, spring will be upon us soon, and flu season will soon pass. racnoll@iu.edu

both died by gun violence. A couple weeks ago, he found out another friend was also shot in the shoulder but survived.

“I don't think nobody want to lose a family member or a friend,” he said after the rally. “That’s just sad.”

People don’t take the issue seriously, Leadford said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 er, said Kim enjoyed guiding students who were passionate about their career paths.

But Kim had her own interests, too.

Ever since she was a child, Kim loved theater, her mother said.

He doesn’t feel like anything has changed recently to make the issue better.

In the future, Leadford hopes to see fewer murders because so many people have lost loved ones.

IU freshman Evann Englert, who spoke at the event, is part of a group trying to start a campus chapter of Students Demand Action.

He said he became involved with gun safety advocacy

last year and realized more changes needed to be made.

“Since Parkland, literally nothing has been done,” he said before the rally.

In the legal system, few efforts for significant gun reform have been successful.

A bill recently passed in the U.S. House of Representatives would fix loopholes in the system that currently don’t require background checks for guns purchased at

online or at gun shows.

The White House has said President Trump would veto the bill if it passed in the Senate.

Englert brought up the issue of background checks during his speech in which he advocated for attendees to contact their local legislators to get laws passed.

“Universal background checks sound like common sense, right?” Englert asked.

The crowd cheered.

“That’s because they are.”

Marleyla Wiltz, a sophomore at Bloomington High School South, traveled with a group of Bloomington students to the main March For Our Lives rally last year in Washington, D.C. She carried the same light blue sign this year, which reads "books not bullets."

She said she noticed the Indianapolis march was

pretty small, partially because it was on a state level but also because people are starting to become complacent again.

But it's just the beginning, Wiltz said. For her, there is still much more to do to keep the United States safe, and she plans to one day run for office to make that happen.

"We just need to keep going," she said.

She would put on plays for her family when she was young and later starred in several high school performances.

While studying at IU, Hinton wrote a dissertation on the representations of sideshow freaks in modern British and American musicals and plays.

“It all came back to theater,” her mother said.

As part of her dissertation, Hinton interviewed actor Mat Fraser, who starred in the show "American Horror Story."

She wrote about how Fraser, who was born with a disability affecting his arms, and other actors with

disabilities are portrayed in pop culture.

Suzanne said she was considering making the dissertation into a book.

Hinton’s partner since 1995, Steve Jarosz, said he enjoyed constantly learning from her about music and pop culture.

Jarosz and Hinton met

while they were graduate students at IU studying Slavic languages.

They did not plan on staying in Bloomington after finishing their studies, he said, but the two lived in town together for about 20 years.

“Our lives just kind of got tied up in Bloomington,”

he said. “It just became our home.”

Jarosz said Hinton was determined to help her students and the university. IU had a special place in their relationship, he said.

Hinton is survived by her parents Suzanne and Keith, her brothers Erik and Joshua and nephew Xavi.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “James is not to be denied in being challenged by our young Andrew Capobianco and it was great to see him show the young guy the ropes on how to handle a meet like that,” Johansen said.

Connor and Capobianco scored 467.60 and 458.90 respectively on the 1-meter. This was Connor’s first Big Ten 1-meter crown and Capobianco’s personal best for the event.

On Friday, Connor earned his second 3-meter title with 494.10. Capobianco scored 477.60, giving him another second place finish.

Capobianco also achieved fourth on the platform dive in the final night of the competition with 416.00. He was the only diver in the conference to participate in the A finals of every diving event.

“Andrew was stellar all week and we’re looking forward to a week of rest and recovery before getting qualified for all three events at zones,” Johansen said. “I have a feeling we should see even better performances out of him in the coming weeks.”

» BASKETBALL

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 about the lost shot they just missed or the fact that we haven’t scored the last two or three possessions,” Moren said. “When our shots do fall, it’s amazing how much confidence we have and how we play off of that.”

The impressive shooting would continue throughout the first half and was capped off by an 11-0 IU run to take a 21-point lead into the locker room.

“We got the shots we wanted,” Moren said. “We got some run-outs. We also manufactured some shots that were not in our offense.

I’m not sure that ignited us anymore than we were already ignited because this was a must-win for us.”

While IU’s shots were pouring in, the team was clamping down on the defensive end. Purdue shot just 30 percent in the game and had its lowest scoring total in a game since scoring 45 against Minnesota on Feb. 14.

“I thought we were really disciplined, solid defensively,” Moren said. “We didn’t give them anything easy.”

After being outrebounded in a loss to Purdue earlier this season, IU crashed the board Sunday to create a 4630 rebounding advantage.

Junior forward Brenna Wise has said this season that rebounding is more about toughness, and the team showed it today by having five players grab five or more rebounds.

“They put their money where their mouth is,” Moren said. “There is a positioning part of it, for sure.

That’s part of it, but it really comes down to your toughness, your grit and your tenacity.”

Sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney was a part of the rebounding effort, grabbing eight boards — five of which were offensive.

“They weren’t really boxing me out, so I had opportunities to go in and try to get it,” Yeaney said. “They came into my hands, so I was able to get us second-chance points.”

Patberg led IU in scoring with 18 points on 8-for-13 shooting while also having just two turnovers.

Postgame, Moren said she feels her team is different when Patberg is playing well,

and it showed today.

“I’m not afraid to say that because if there’s one kid that can handle that kind of pressure, it’s AP,” Moren said. “The way she came out and handled herself today, I thought was a special perfor-

mance.”

IU finishes the regular season with a 19-11 overall record and 8-10 in the Big Ten. As the team sits on the bubble of most potential NCAA Tournament brackets, it will look to improve

its résumé at the conference tournament in Indianapolis this week.

The dates and times of IU’s games will be determined after the conclusion of Sunday’s Big Ten matchups.

Shooting back Aron Bright is a high school teacher.

Would students be safer if he had a gun?

By Peter Talbot pjtalbot@iu.edu | @petejtalbot

A

ron Bright stood around the corner from the locked door in classroom A202. Minutes before, the assistant principal’s voice had come over the intercom: lockdown.

As Bright remembers it, one student who’d stayed after school for help stood behind him.

From the tone of the assistant principal’s voice, Bright knew this wasn’t a drill.

It was 2012. He had been waiting for the day an active shooter came to Avon High School. In his mind, it wasn’t if it happened. It was when.

“I could do things if someone stood at the classroom door of A202 with an AR-15 if I had my handgun that I can’t do without it.”

Aron Bright, Avon High School Teacher

Bright thought, “I don’t have my handgun.”

Empty handed, Bright wasn’t prepared for a gunfight. But he did have a plan.

If the gunman came to the classroom door, he would have to shatter the glass and reach through to unlock it. If it came to that, Bright said later, he was ready to rip the gunman’s arm off and feed it to him. He waited.

No one ever burst through his door. Later, he was told police had a tip that a former student was on the way to Avon High School with a gun, but they arrested him at home.

The next day, Dec. 14, 2012, a gunman killed 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

ion”. His phone doesn’t ring. When someone calls, an engine roars.

He grew up on a hog farm in Centerville, Indiana. Guns were around him, but Bright didn’t start shooting regularly until later in his life. To get away from farming, Bright became a teacher.

He teaches a United States history course to juniors at Avon High School and is in his 25th year as a teacher.

Bright tells it like it is, said Catherine Trinkle, an instructional coach who observes classes to give feedback to teachers. She said he uses questioning to get his students to approach topics more deeply.

Bright calls himself old-school. He likes to lecture and isn’t big on group work. He said he wants his students to not only tell him their opinions, but to back up those opinions with historical facts.

His teaching goes beyond U.S. history, however.

He has been a firearms instructor since 2008. Bright teaches at Parabellum Firearms and Indoor Range in Avon and owns a private gun training business, Bright Firearms Training.

Bright taught an advanced group of shooters Feb. 18 at Parabellum. The group of five ran drills practicing shot speed, shooting with their weak hand and shooting while moving.

While shell casings rained, Bright paced and watched. His commands were strong and loud enough to be heard through protective ear muffs.

Above all else, Bright preached safety, telling the group if someone pointed a gun at another person, even if it was empty, they were done for the night.

The men shot for more than two hours. The

“This bill would have only increased tensions that day.”

* * * Bright, 48, teaches history in Avon, Indiana. In early February, he spoke to a committee of the Indiana House of Representatives to support arming teachers.

He told them about the time he was locked in his classroom, waiting for a gunman to burst through the door. He said for those 17 minutes, he was angry and defenseless.

“I could do things if someone stood at the classroom door of A202 with an AR-15 if I had my handgun that I can’t do without it,” Bright testified.

Teachers are not known for their ability to kill.

They’re seen as shepherds rather than security guards. But with every school shooting whipping up fear, schools are under pressure to keep kids safe.

If it’s hard to picture a teacher with the nerve and skill to defend students in a hail of gunfire, then it’s useful to get to know Aron Bright. He’s a toughtalking dead shot who’s practiced under pressure.

He’s also human, and he’s made mistakes. He still believes his students would be safer if he were armed in class.

Bright’s voice in the debate is lonely but resolute.

Bright testified to support House Bill 1253, which would allow schools to use state funds to provide 40.5 hours of firearms training to teachers, school staff and employees who volunteer and are authorized to arm themselves during the school day.

Two Indiana teachers unions opposed the bill.

Representatives from both the Indiana State Teachers Association, which according to its website has nearly 40,000 members, and the American Federation of Teachers Indiana testified against it. Bright was the only teacher to testify in support of the bill.

In Indiana, it’s already legal for school districts to decide whether teachers can bring firearms into school. So far, three school districts allow some teachers or school staff to carry.

More districts may make the same decision if the bill is passed.

After Bright spoke, 21 more people testified.

Four other teachers and an IU professor argued bringing more guns into schools would only create more opportunity for harm. Some said the funds proposed to be used for weapons training would be better spent placing police officers in schools or bolstering students’ mental health treatment.

To Bright, none of these arguments addresses what a teacher should do when face-to-face with a person determined to kill.

Suppose mental health programs didn’t help.

Red flags were missed. The shooter got past school security. Police are on their way. The student resource officer is down the hall. A classroom of students is staring down the barrel. Now what? * * * On the range, with his gun in its holster, Aron Bright can get a shot off in less than a second. He doesn’t just carry one Smith & Wesson on his hip.

hollow shells falling to the concrete sounded like wind chimes. * * * Emily Cole, a senior at Noblesville High School, testified against House Bill 1253 the same day as Bright. During her testimony, she spoke directly to Rep. Chuck Goodrich, a Republican from Noblesville.

She told Goodrich she sat in front of his daughter at school when a student at Noblesville West Middle School shot two people in May 2018. She said they held hands and cried together.

“This bill would have only increased tensions that day,” she said.

Guns are inherently dangerous, Bright said.

That’s something he stresses when teaching gun safety. Even if there is no magazine in the gun and he can see that the chamber is empty, he said he still treats the gun as if it’s loaded. That’s one of the first lessons any shooter learns in training.

Bright agreed that there are legitimate concerns to having guns in schools, such as accidental misfires during normal days or poor accuracy in the event of a school shooting, but that doesn’t mean there’s a better solution.

Safety issues can be mitigated not only through proper training, he said, but by letting people who don’t want to be armed stay unarmed.

him, but Bright intervened. Bright came at the man like an offensive lineman, Panko said, sending him careening toward the lockers where Bright pinned him. He said the man was escorted out of the building.

Bright’s coaching career at Avon ended in 2002.

He was suspended after biting the head off of a live sparrow in front of his wrestlers as a motivational tactic before a tournament.

The story was picked up by national news outlets. He explained back then that in the country, where he grew up and where the incident happened, sparrows are varmints. The bird didn’t suffer and neither did his team, he said. But it was still a bad idea.

He chose to resign as coach because the incident was the only thing people wanted to talk about, he said in February.

“It was the right intentions,” Bright said. “It was the wrong thing to do. It was unprofessional, it was stupid and what it did was it cost me in a big way.” * * * Jenny Bivans, a retired elementary teacher, testified against the firearms training bill the same day Bright testified. She said the teachers she knows would take a bullet for their students.

The hundreds she knows aren’t trained to kill, she said, and they don’t want to be.

“Educators are wired to be helpers, nurturers, mentors and role models to their students,” Bivans said. “Police officers are wired to confront school shooters.”

Bivans has two granddaughters in elementary school. She knows the police officer posted at the their school in Zionsville, Indiana. She said she doesn’t know why student resource officers like Officer Sam aren’t the answer.

During his opening testimony, Rep. Jim Lucas, a Republican and author of House Bill 1253, argued that with the funds proposed to be used by the bill, a school could train 45 teachers to use firearms. He said having just one resource officer costs around $70,000 annually.

The bill passed the Indiana House education committee that Bright and the other teachers testified in front of. Since then, it has passed a second and third reading and been referred to the Senate to be voted on.

If passed, the bill will return to the House to be approved before it’s seen by the governor.

Supporters of the bill could still argue that arming teachers is the last defense when a gunman is standing in the doorway.

Ann Herron, a retired teacher, also testified against the bill. In an interview, she said in her 23 years teaching, she never had to face a gunman in school. She resists the idea that teachers would be the last line of defense in a school shooting.

“If that is really the only true solution to this, then I wouldn’t be able to teach,” Herron said. * * * The lights were out in the indoor shooting range.

Jerry Hillenburg, 68, stood in the dark.

Bright had set up the range to simulate a home intrusion. One at a time, Hillenburg and the other marksmen had to defend their homes from the paper and wood robbers with just a handgun and flashlight.

* * * For years, Bright coached wrestling at Avon.

Wrestling has been a part of Bright’s life since middle school, and the lessons the sport has taught him inform his perspective on self-defense. He said it’s part of the reason he decided to take up shooting.

At a national tournament in 1992, Bright, wrestling for Manchester College, now known as Manchester University, faced Tom Moore, a wrestler from West Virginia. Bright had suffered many losses and a set of broken ribs to Moore in the past, and this time, he lost to him again. Moore went on to lose in the tournament to another wrestler, and Bright recognized that no matter how strong or fast he was, someone would always be stronger or faster.

“I’ve had Tom Moore kick my ass a few dozen times and then I watched him get treated like a child,” Bright said. “I decided out here in the real world where there ain’t a referee to save you, I’m probably going to need some help.”

Adrian Panko is a former Avon High wrestler who graduated in 2001. He said Bright taught him to be tough and work well under pressure.

Panko supports arming teachers and said he would have trusted Bright to carry a firearm at school when he was a student. He said as a teacher and coach, Bright was committed to his success.

That commitment became clear to Panko during a freestyle wrestling meet, he said. During one of his matches, the fight started to get dirty.

He won the match, but in the hallway afterward, the player’s father confronted him, Panko said.

He said the man cursed at him and reached for

“Educators are wired to be helpers, nurturers, mentors and role models to their students.

Police officers are wired to confront school shooters.”

“Up!” Bright yelled.

Hillenburg drew his gun from his holster and flicked on his flashlight. In the light were two boxy wooden men holding handguns, surrounding an innocent man holding a black phone. Hillenburg assessed the situation. He paused. He fired his gun.

He paused. He fired three more rounds.

He repeated the process on the second scenario and made his way down to the third.

“Now, this target sucks ass,” Bright told Hillenburg. “I’m going to give you a hint. This is a hostage situation.”

“OK,” Hillenburg said.

“One gets shot, one doesn’t,” Bright said. “Up.” Hillenburg drew his gun and turned his flashlight on. Six seconds passed. Bang. Four more seconds. Bang. He holstered his gun.

When the lights came on, Hillenburg had done well on every scenario but the hostage. The first bullet hit the hostage in the corner of the eye. The second, Bright told Hillenburg, hit the brainstem.

“He’s done,” Bright said. “That’s a tough shot.”

TRAVEL COLUMN

When studying abroad, linguistic loneliness can be isolating Anna Groover is a junior studying English, geography and religious studies.

This semester, I’m studying abroad in Aix-enProvence, France, where I’m taking classes at a local university alongside French students and doing a homestay with an elderly French woman.

When I envisioned this semester, I didn’t account for how psychologically draining the language barrier would be. Instead, I expected sunshine! Provence!

Baguettes!

During my first few weeks here, I would walk home in the evening after classes exhausted by the

sheer amount of extra thinking packed into my day, the recollection of verb tenses, random nouns and correct pronunciations jumbling together in my head. This thankfully subsided after a while, but a linguistic worry still plagues me.

I’ve had conversations with my host and other French people that span all sorts of topics: current affairs, Jane Austen, the films of Ingmar Bergman, Bradley Cooper. You name it.

Even so, there are times I feel lonely in French. I feel unlike myself.

A while back, I read Jhumpa Lahiri’s “In Other Words,” a treatise on her difficulty with learning Ital-

ian in a way that allows her to inhabit the language and make it her own. This is the obstacle now in my way.

Yes, I can ask questions and express complicated sentiments and ideas, but right now it seems impossible to carve out a niche for myself in this language that bears the same connotation and subtleties as my English does.

For example, I have yet to find a word in French that encompasses all that “home” means to me. There’s “ma maison,” which means “my house,” and “chez moi,” which is closer to “my place.” Neither of these options fits in my mouth the same way

“home” does, which to me is a word that hums, one I can feel in my bones.

I often wonder if I’m the same person in French as I am in English, a suspicion furthered by my sense of my imprecision in the language. Do I move through the world differently in French? More clumsily?

More direct, perhaps, and also ruder? After all, who knows how many social “faux pas” I’ve made.

All of these anxieties were dogging me one night in particular. But then at dinner, my host brought up her love for a certain American painter, Edward Hopper. I perked up at this.

Hopper has been a favorite

of mine too, ever since I had to recreate one of his lighthouse paintings on the shell of a hollowed-out egg in seventh grade art class.

I told her that she needed to visit Chicago so she could see “Nighthawks” at the Art Institute. At that, she disappeared into another room, then returned with a photo of that very painting that she’d taken when it was on display in Marseille ten years ago.

After that, she retrieved two books of Hopper’s paintings, thumbing through them and pausing on the ones she liked. Like me, she loves his works for their moments of disconnect between people: The absence

of eye contact, bodies turned away from each other and faces rendered disinterested.

Most of all, though, we both love the sterile, institutional urban loneliness permeating his compositions.

She was thrilled to have found this shared love of ours, and we both rejoiced in rediscovering old favorites.

She smiled when I pointed out “Hotel Lobby” to her, a painting that calls the Indianapolis Museum of Art its home.

My own sense of linguistic isolation retreated while she and I discussed our love of Hopper’s lonely scenes, if just a tiny bit. acgroove@iu.edu

LITTLE 500

ALEXIS ENNIS | IDS

Anna Young, a Kappa Alpha Theta Bike Team Rookie, is supported by veteran rider Erika Arakawa during Rookie Week for the 2019 Little 500 race. Rookie week requires first-time riders to practice 15.5 hours on the track.

Everyone has to start somewhere

By DJ Fezler djfezler@iu.edu | @DJFezler

Despite the rain, wind and cold weather over the past two weeks, cycling masks the dreary weather for athletes training for this year’s Little 500.

Racing season has officially begun in Bloomington, and fledgling riders finished circling the blackened pavement on Feb. 22 at Bill Armstrong Stadium to signify the conclusion of Rookie Week practices.

“These practices are really important, especially because for a lot of people, it’s their very first time out on the track,” Kappa Alpha Theta captain Erika Arakawa said. “It’s our responsibility to get them used to not only learning the basic skills like exchanging and pack riding, but also to get them used to different conditions.”

Coupled with offseason preparation, it’s during Rookie Week when teams look to develop new

talent that will contend for victories this year and beyond.

For Kappa Alpha Theta, they’re looking to be the first team in Little 500 history to win three straight titles, but every individual rider has to start somewhere.

Sophomore Anna Young was initiated into Theta last February.

Now she is one of the numerous rookie riders to join the prestigious cycling team this season.

Young’s individual training began over the summer and she began to train with the team after returning to Bloomington in the fall.

During her freshman year, Young said she was missing the athletic purpose in her life. At a younger age, she competed in sprintathons and was a competitive swimmer, but she didn’t participate in sports in 2018.

After Young joined Kappa Alpha Theta, Arakawa reintroduced that purpose to her. Young said Arakawa was one of her first friends in the house and their re-

lationship has only grown since.

Young had no prior knowledge of the sorority’s historical success in the Little 500.

As a member of the Riders Council, Arakawa aids the development of many riders pedaling around the track for the first time.

But as a team captain, she also trains with her own team’s rookie riders. Over the course of Rookie Week, aspiring racers strengthened not only their bodies, but their knowledge of the sport.

Young said learning track safety was a crucial to her Rookie Week education.

Weather and track conditions are going to be different every single day, and adapting to the changes creates the safest racing environment possible.

She also said these practices are important for building relationships with other teams.

New riders share advice from with each and they experience training together. In some cases,

the athletes who shared the track during Rookie Week will be competitors for the next three to four years.

Through training, Theta built an extensive support system with their active members and alumni.

The sorority that started the women’s Little 500 has won eight races, the most by any women’s team.

Members of the past have paved the way for future teams, culminating in a culture that brings past and present together.

Current riders, even rookies, have an opportunity to follow in their alumni’s footsteps.

Theta has won two Little 500 races in a row for the second time in five years.

With the legacy that is tied to the sorority and the loss of last year’s hero, Rachel Brown, the pressure is on for the team to win it all again.

When time permits, the team sits down to coordinate their schedules with one another. When

can they schedule team meetings?

When do they complete homework? When is everyone in class?

How much race tape do they watch outside of practice?

“Biking is always a factor in your mind,” Arakawa said. “Whatever I do, am I able to still bike?”

New riders discover that what happens over the course of a season is anything but expected.

Weather and other natural factors are out of their control, but their dedication and effort lie in their own hands.

The offseason planning and training have led to the moment when the cycling season begins.

For the rookies, this season is about tracking their progress and development.

“Everyone tells me, ‘The first year is the prime year for how much you improve’,” Young said.

“Being able to see my progress and also just being with my teammates, because honestly, the best part is the team aspect.”

SOFTBALL

IU loses first game of season, takes down No. 10 LSU

By Jared Kelly jaakelly@iu.edu

IU softball has heavily relied on stellar pitching and opportunistic base hits throughout its perfect start, but it was only a matter of time before their deficiencies started catching up to them.

This weekend’s trip to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, is where the Hoosiers earned their first loss, but the they still managed to leave with three more resume-building wins.

IU had little time to find a rhythm with its first two matchups coming against Stephen F. Austin University and No.10-ranked Louisiana State University.

Game one had an uneventful start as IU senior

BOBBY GODDIN | IDS

Then-freshman outfielder Taylor Lambert, now a sophomore, celebrates after making a run against Nebraska during the 2018 season. IU won against Illinois State University on March 3.

Tara Trainer and Stephen F. Austin freshman Kassidy Wilbur were locked in a tense pitching duel.

Miscommunication in

the infield allowed a routine pop fly to fall in the fourth inning, giving the Ladyjacks the lone of run of the game to hand the Hoosiers their

first loss of the season and a 1-0 defeat.

“Offensively, we didn’t make the adjustments we needed to make,” IU Head Coach Shonda Stanton said.

“That loss is gonna sting a little bit.”

The second game Friday didn’t get any easier for IU as they got ready to take on No. 10 LSU. IU wouldn’t relinquish its lead after jumping out to a 4-2 lead by the third inning, topping LSU 7-2 and picking up its second win over a top-ten opponent this season.

Sophomore outfielder Taylor Lambert played a big role in the win, going 2-for4 at the plate and adding a highlight-reel catch, leaping above the center field wall to rob LSU of a game-tying

home run.

“We did a good job bouncing back and playing scrappy,” Lambert said.

Saturday’s doubleheader was another opportunity for IU to add two more quality wins facing University of South Carolina Upstate and Illinois State University.

Another masterful outing by Tara Trainer was all IU needed to claim a 2-0 victory over USC Upstate. Trainer racked up seven strikeouts en route to a complete game shutout.

Less than an hour later the Hoosiers were back on the field to take on the Redbirds, this time getting shut out themselves and losing 3-0.

Redshirt junior Josie Wood had a shaky start, giving up three runs to Illinois

State in the first inning before being pulled. Junior Emily Goodin was able to stop the bleeding as she pitched 5.1 innings and gave up zero runs, but it wasn’t enough to offset IU’s stagnant offense.

IU finished out the weekend Sunday morning, getting its revenge on Illinois State with a 2-0 win. Tara Trainer racked up nine more strikeouts, moving herself into second place among IU softball’s career strikeout leaders.

Indiana improved to 17-2 on the season but also lost its unbeaten streak in the process.

“I think we can finally take a deep breath now that we lost a game,” Stanton said. “This group does a good job of not worrying about streaks.”

WATER POLO

Hoosiers pick up three wins this weekend in Bloomington

By Jacob Toppen jqtoppen@iu.edu | @JaketoppenSP

In the Hoosiers first home matches of the 2019 season, the IU water polo team found the win column three times in its own pool.

IU tipped off the Indiana Classic on Friday night against Salem University. The Hoosiers were out to a quick start scoring four goals in the first quarter. IU headed in to halftime with a 5-4 lead and never looked back from there defeating Salem 14-9.

Late in the match, freshman utlity Izzy Mandema had a highlight goal after scoring

a spinning, behind-the-back, no-look goal.

Freshman attacker Tina Doherty was dominant in her first game, scoring four goals for the Hoosiers along with teammate and junior attacker Megan Abarta, who contributed four assists.

Following the Hoosiers first game Friday, IU was up early Saturday for another matchup against Mercyhurst University. The Hoosiers were strong on both the defensive and offensive sides of the ball, taking a seven-goal lead in to the half.

Freshman utilities Izzy Mandema and Hannah Falls-

Hand led the way for the Hoosiers in this match, scoring a combined seven of the teams 13 goals. IU’s impressive performance included seven individuals finding the back of the net in their 13-7 victory.

A big reason why the Hoosiers were so dominant against Mercyhurst was because of the play on the defensive side of the ball. IU racked up steals throughout the match, finishing with 10 total.

In the second match of the day, IU hosted Wagner College, who proved to be a tough out in the pool. Wagner was out to a quick, three-goal lead but sophomore driver Juli Hi-

lovsky got IU on the board before the half.

Tina Doherty added a goal for IU late in the game, but the strong fight from the team in the second half was unable to bring them back in its 11-2 loss. This was the first time in program history that the Hoosiers have lost to Wagner, bringing the all-time series to 17-1.

On the final day of the Indiana Classic, the Hoosiers were set to meet California State University, East Bay for the first match of the day. The Hoosiers came out firing on all cylinders on both sides of the ball.

Abarta was filling the stat sheet for the Hoosiers with a goal, an assist and two steals in her dominating performance.

Mandema also filled the stat sheet with two goals, three assists and two steals.IU took a convincing five-goal lead in to the half, leading CSU-East Bay 5-0. IU freshman goalkeeper Sarah Greeven produced a shutout in the first half and saved 11 shots total.

IU continued its dominance in the second half, but CSU-East Bay made an attempted comeback late in the match that was stopped short.

The Hoosiers defeated the Pioneers 8-6.

In IU’s final match of Indiana Classic, ut went back and forth with California State University, Northridge. Both teams came out scoring early as the match was tied at three after the first quarter.

Mandema got the Hoosiers on the board first with one of her three goals in this match. The Hoosiers took a 7-5 lead into the half, but were not able to hang on in the second. They lost a tough fought match in their final game of the weekend 11-10.

IU returns to the pool March 7 for another home match against Wittenberg University.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

IU bounces back, but looks for consistency and get a first-round bye, playing its first game Thursday as opposed to Wednesday.

“We didn’t really want to play on the first day because it’s hard to win the tournament playing all four days,” sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney said.

But the bigger question that remains isn’t what day IU will play, but which IU team will show up next?

It could be the one that failed to feed off a win and lost by 20 to Northwestern or the one that came out firing and dominated Purdue.

“To say that I haven’t had anxiety I’d be lying,” Moren said. “Just because we’re going down the stretch here and we’re playing for something.

Every game matters.”

The question of how IU would respond to a big win over No. 10 Iowa was met with disappointment — a 20-point loss at Northwestern — but the question of how IU would deal with that disappointment was met with intensity.

IU dominated Purdue 73-51 on Sunday in its final game of the regular season.

IU Coach Teri Moren called it some of the team’s best basketball in terms of how the Hoosiers scored the ball and stayed out of foul trouble.The Big Ten Tournament is next up for IU, 19-11 overall and 8-10 in conference play.

When Moren mentioned that IU is playing for something, she means the NCAA Tournament.

In 2017, IU won 20 games and went 10-6 in the Big Ten and missed the tournament.

In 2018, IU missed out again at 16-13 and 9-7 in Big Ten, another year on the outside looking in. The last year the Hoosiers made the tournament was 2016 when they went 20-10 and 12-6 in the Big Ten. This season, IU’s record has similarities to all three of those seasons. In the most recent bracketology, the Hoosiers were on the bubble, so their hopes of making the tournament could come down to if they win some games in the Big Ten Tourna-

ment, which ultimately comes down to which Hoosier team will show up.

Moren said the team plays well when junior guard Ali Patberg plays well, and she scored 18 points Sunday and said her team’s performance

at Northwestern was uncharacteristic.

“It was kind of a pride thing,” Patberg said. “That’s not how our team plays. That’s not how our program is supposed to represent the university, so we needed to come

out and play the way we’re supposed to play, and we did.”

IU’s first game in the Big Ten Tournament will either be at 4 p.m. Wednesday or noon Thursday.

Maybe video didn't kill the radio star

Rejoice: The Jonas Brothers are back Hannah Reed is a senior studying journalism.

COURTESY PHOTO

College radio thrives as a testing ground for new sounds and talent that are taken seriously by observing record labels.

Katie Maher is a junior studying ethnomusicology, media studies and arts management.

“No one listens to the radio anymore” and “you should get into podcasting instead” are standard reactions I receive when telling anybody I’ve been heavily involved with my local independent stations throughout high school and college.

Despite the concerns of dedicating a large amount of time on a medium perceived as obsolete, my reasoning for staying involved with college radio station goes beyond personal enjoyment.

Apart from valuable broadcasting experience for student DJs, college radio serves as the ultimate outlet for discovering and engaging with both local and up-and-coming artists who produce a sound outside commercial radio conventions.

College radio thrives as a testing ground for new

sounds and talent that are taken seriously by observing record labels, and it is an honor as a college radio DJ to have input. Major labels take what is charting highly at college stations as indicators of who could potentially gain mainstream success.

This is no surprise to those familiar with the rise of grunge acts from college rotation to the mainstream in the ‘90s, but it is evident college radio input still shapes the success of upand-coming artists. In an age where traditional radio listenership has declined nationwide in the advent of technologies which provide customizable listening experiences, college radio still serves a purpose.

Take WIUX, IU’s college radio station, which has featured several artists in its programming before they reached a mainstream audience. Indie slacker rocker Mac DeMarco, Grammy Award-winning rock band The War On Drugs and reflective musings from Chi-

cago rapper Noname were all broadcast on WIUX’s airwaves.

These artists later secured widespread critical acclaim, sold out headlining shows and late-night talk show performances. In fact, all three of these artists headlined WIUX’s annual Culture Shock music festival before moving onto larger festival billings including Pitchfork, Coachella and Lollapalooza.

The effect college radio has on supporting Bloomington’s locally produced music is also apparent, even if a song is only featured on one station's lineup.

IU sophomore and local musician Katie O’Neill, who performs under the moniker ktfaithful, said her recent success came when her music was picked up by WIUX last fall.

“Being a part of the college radio scene has helped get my name out so much faster than any platform I’ve been on,” O’Neill said. “I was grateful that I was put

on the rotation because it is a great way for artists like me to gain exposure”.

When O’Neill’s alternative pop single “In My Head” charted at number fifteen on WIUX’s top thirty reported to the North American College Community in early February, the single’s total streams skyrocketed on Spotify. Within a month of the single’s release, it had gained over 20,000 listens.

In the current mainstream music soundscape, there is little variability in lyrical themes and messages in addition to inequivalent exposure for underrepresented artists and genres.

However, college radio stations continue offer a refreshing alternative. Unlike commercial radio, DJs have full control over what is played during their hour.

Local artists have the potential of landing onto a DJs playlists, when getting airplay at a commercial station isn’t a possibility. katamahe@iu.edu

A popular vine once said, “The Jonas Brothers can’t break up, they’re brothers.”

Truer words have never been spoken: The band is back.

The boys have long since thrown their purity rings in the trash — Nick and Kevin have exchanged them for wedding rings, and Joe is engaged — and the Jonas Brothers' six year-long hiatus went with them. My willingness to listen to anything other than “Sucker,” which was released March 1 at midnight Eastern Time, also went out the window.

"Sucker” is incredibly upbeat and catchy, and after hearing the music Nick and Joe have put out individually since the split it’s exactly what I expected it to be and more.

The video, directed by Anthony Mandler, features the three boys and their significant others: Kevin’s wife Danielle, Nick’s wife Priyanka Chopra and Joe’s fiancée Sophie Turner. The six dance in a castle and take baths while eating suckers and looking absolutely incredible.

Kevin, Nick and Joe are finally back in the trio where they rightfully belong, and my adult heart is aching like a teenager’s again, beating at speeds that are likely unsafe.

The Jonas Brothers formed in 2005 and released four albums, three of which

were with Hollywood Records owned by Disney.

They made appearances on “Camp Rock” and “Hannah Montana” as well as starred in their own show “Jonas,” before breaking up.

My world shattered in October 2013 when the announcement was made. All I could think about was that I never got to go to a Jonas Brothers concert in my red dress and high heels to gain the love and affection of Nick Jonas. After almost six years, the wound was nearly healed when I saw the Jonas Brothers change their photos on social media to black.

That was when I knew they were back, and accompanying the return was my will to live.

If my apartment complex allowed me to hang things on my walls, I would likely consider recreating my Nick Jonas-covered childhood bedroom. Although, no offense to Nick and his stans, but post “Sucker” music video it would likely be photos of Joe instead.

I mean, Nick in that vest?

Chopra in that gold dress?

Joe in that turtleneck? I feel like I need to personally thank each and every one of them.

Truthfully, I’ll be thanking them for the rest of my life, because if “Sucker” is any hint of what’s to come from the three brothers we all know and love, we’re in for a treat. hanreed@iu.edu
