Fran Watson and the law students who worked on Darryl Pinkins’ case through Watson’s innocence clinic traveled to Lake County to see Darryl on the day he was released from prison. Watson lost Darryl’s case six times before his conviction was vacated.

The third life of Darryl Pinkins After 25 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, Darryl Pinkins is finally free.

Now he’s starting over in a world that did not wait for him.

“A quarter century,” he says, shaking his head. “That sounds strange.”

PORTAGE, Ind. — The world got colder while he was locked away. He can’t stand to watch the news. It doesn’t show any of the good, he says.

Just the dark. When he goes to the grocery store, he notices people aren’t as kind. They don’t look each other in the eye. They walk the aisles staring at their phones and everyone seems short-tempered.

“Just look at how people drive on the highway,” he says.

Darryl Pinkins tries not to be bitter about the stolen years. But at 64, starting over is hard.

For a quarter century, the world lurched forward, and he stayed stuck.

* * * In his first life, he was a family man. He had a wife and kids, a house, a job at a scrap metal factory in northwest Indiana. Then he was convicted of a rape he did not commit, and his second life began. His innocence isolated him from the other inmates.

“There’s a saying that prisoners are like crabs in a barrel,” Darryl says. “If one gets close to getting out, the others will do anything to bring him back down to the bottom.”

His third life began in April 2016 after an IU law professor and her students used

DNA evidence to secure his release. Fran Watson spent 17 years trying to free Darryl and another man who was wrongfully convicted in the same case. Throughout her career, Watson has helped release five men from unjust prison sentences.

The public wants to believe the criminal justice system works and that Indiana’s prisons are full of the guilty. Watson knows better. Eyewitnesses can be mistaken. Memories are unreliable. Detectives, hell-bent on believing they have the right man, ignore evidence that suggests otherwise.

“What happened to Darryl happens all the time,” Watson says.

Darryl returned to regular life in a storm of cameras and

publicity. But once the cameras went away, he was left alone. He’d gotten divorced in prison. His kids had grown.

Some had moved away.

He doesn’t feel whole, so he prays to God every day, asking him to send someone he can share his new life with.

As long as he’s alone, his freedom feels hollow.

“If you don’t have love,” he says, “you don’t have God in you.”

From the very beginning, he’s been sure God had a reason for letting him be locked up for so long.

He’s still waiting for the answer. * * * SEE PINKINS, PAGE 5

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The survival instinct kicked in for IU. Needing a win to advance in the Big Ten Tournament, IU brought back the potential it had shown earlier this season when it beat Kansas and North Carolina.

On the back of a dominant second half, IU defeated Iowa 95-73 at the Verizon Center, and scored the second-most points ever by a team in the Big Ten Tournament.

“We know we can be a dangerous team when we’re clicking like that,” junior guard James Blackmon Jr. said. “We’re all playing together.”

Blackmon was the player Iowa had to fear the most in the second half. He unleashed an inferno on the Hawkeyes and scored 18 points and made all five of his shots. He finished with 23 points.

“I thought what James did better in the second half even than the first was he cut,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. “He was getting from one side to the other.”

His shot was key for the rest of the Hoosiers’ offense.

“It helps a lot because he’s a big part of our team,” freshman forward Curtis Jones said. “We know what he’s capable of.”

After losing its halftime lead early in the second half, IU roared ahead on the back of an offense that shot 67.9 percent from the field and 75 percent from 3 in the second half.

The offense showed the tantalizing potential that had eluded IU for so much of the season.

New IUSA election code details grounds for disqualification

By Jesse Naranjo jlnaranj@indiana.edu | @jesselnaranjo

In two weeks, students will vote for the next IU Student Association executive ticket and congress.

In the past year, the IUSA Election Commission has worked to revise its bylaws and procedural election code to make them understandable to students who want to get into student government.

In the last two elections, a series of code violations and technical disputes resulted in IUSA’s Supreme Court having a final say on the outcomes. Election Commissioner and junior Eric Langowski said the most significant changes to the election code and bylaws pertain to the Election Commission’s system of checks and balances, which is why the commission now has a law student supervising it.

Here’s a look back at past violations, ways tickets can receive reductions to their vote count and some ways a ticket can be outright disqualified.

Past elections In the 2015 IUSA Election, the three tickets in the running shared 17 complaints alleging some sort of rule breaking. Initially, the only outcome was percent reductions in each ticket’s vote count. Soon it was revealed the winning ticket, Amplify for IUSA, committed campaign finance violations for not reporting non-monetary donations. The donations in question were free t-shirts and the use of a pony for campaign purposes.

Amplify had already received an 11.5 percent vote reduction, but

following revelations to the election commission, it was disqualified. After appealing the decision to the IUSA Supreme Court, the disqualification was upheld and the second place INTouch ticket was elected.

In 2016, the REAL for IUSA ticket, which makes up much of the current administration, was given a 21.4 percent reduction in votes.

This was upheld by the Supreme Court. REAL violated voter rules prohibiting the distribution of voting links by third-party emails. IU College Democrats emailed this link to students, and the election commission decided there was enough evidence to suggest collusion between the group and REAL. Despite the lost votes and complaints by an opposing ticket, REAL was not disqualified.

The current situation The current Procedural Election Code, approved by the IUSA Congress on Feb. 21, has a series of changes. Among them are decreases in campaign spending limits, increases in vote deduction penalties and a higher evidentiary standard for disqualification.

Langowski said the current Election Commission’s main job is to keep track of the election code, not to pass subjective decisions.

The only violation the commission is actively looking for is campaigning in non-designated places, since tickets have to apply and be assigned these locations, he said.

Infractions detailed in titles IV, V and VI of the revised election code lay out some ways tickets SEE IUSA, PAGE 6

IU Media School professor Joan Hawkins introduces the next act in Player’s Pub “Spoken Word,” event Thursday evening. Hawkins also preformed two pieces, “The Ballad of Renee and Buzz” and “Leonard Cohen and Edie Sedgwick at the Chelsea Hotel.”

Professor performs live poetry

By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor

When professor Joan Hawkins writes, she sits at her desk surrounded by bookshelves, near a large window that overlooks the forest behind her house.

She types on her laptop and peers up the wall at a large drawing of Virginia Woolf her husband made for her. Photos of singer-songwriter Patti Smith and poet Jorie Graham sit on the desk.

Hawkins said she writes by looking at those women.

Hawkins performed two longer pieces at Thursday’s spoken word performance at Player’s Pub along with poets Tony Brewer and poet Eric Rensberger. Shakespeare’s Monkey, an Evansville poetry band,

also performed.

The spoken word night takes place on second Thursday of the month. It is sponsored by the Bloomington Writers Guild and organized by Hawkins and Brewer, who is the chairperson of the Writers Guild.

Hawkins is an IU film studies professor and writer. Hawkins performed two pieces. The first, a jazz poem titled “Leonard Cohen and Edie Sedgwick at the Chelsea Hotel,” was a tribute to the late singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen she wrote on his last birthday, Sept. 21.

The second was a humorous prose piece, titled “The Ballad of Renee and Buzz,” that detailed Hawkins’ helping a 17-year-old girl and 21-year-old man elope when Hawkins was 12. She kept their

suitcase in her room for the couple whenever they were ready to leave town.

Hawkins has a building writing process. She comes up with one line then uses that to create a full poem.

Content with her piece, Hawkins walks away from the poem. When she returns to the work a couple days later, Hawkins agonizes over the piece, pulling it apart. She reorganizes the words, often cutting much of it until she gets to the most basic message of the poem.

“It’s not an easy process,” Hawkins said. “I get great feelings of energy and enthusiasm, then I’m plunged into despair and selfloathing. I crawl out with something I can actually read.”

Seniors attempt to complete IU bucket list

By Rebecca Ellis rebellis@indiana.edu | @rebeccae_97

Hike around Griffy Lake, kiss someone special in the Rose Well House at midnight and explore the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center. These are just three of the 56 items on the IU bucket list.

Every summer, the New Student Orientation program provides freshmen with a list made up of things every IU student should have done by the time they reach the end of their senior year.

Having reached the middle of the spring semester, time is almost up for the class of 2017, which begs the question as to whether their lists are complete.

Taegan Anthony, a senior majoring in psychology and gender studies, said she remembered to do a few things on her list.

“I remember dipping my feet in the fountain and putting my feet on the art museum wall,” Anthony said.

Further than that, Anthony said she thinks the IU bucket list is a good starting point but is not essential for a complete experience. She said it’s good for freshmen

coming in because college is a whole new experience.

After that stage, Anthony said she believes the IU experience has a different meaning for each person. For her, that was community service.

“I tried to get more involved in the community rather than the campus,” Anthony said, “I did more volunteer work.”

However, Bridget Kennedy, a senior majoring in tourism, hospitality and event management , said she tried to complete it but has not finished it yet. Kennedy said she found her interest in the Marching Hundred instead.

“I’m in band, so I get a different experience than I would have from doing the bucket list,” Kennedy said.

However, she did have one thing that she had done from the bucket list that was her favorite: ordering freshly baked cookies during a late night conversation with friends.

In a similar way to Anthony and Kennedy, Julia Bogen, a senior majoring in linguistics and East Asian languages and cultures, have not completed the bucket list. She said she had a different set of interests that did

not match some of the items on the list.

“I’ve never been to a basketball game,” Bogen said, “I do more cultural events like the Lotus Festival.”

However, Bogen said she did many of the things on the list without making an active

effort to do them, such as enjoying the restaurants on Fourth Street. Bogen said she thinks IU is so much more than a bucket list can sum up.

“IU has so many events that are beyond that,” Bogen said, “You can really find

Professor questions education plan

By Rachel Leffers rleffers@indiana.edu rachelleffers@indiana.edu

Throughout President Trump’s campaign, he seldom addressed his plans for higher education. Since his inauguration, that trend has continued and been shared

by Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos. Trump and DeVos have not been specific about their plans for higher education; however, DeVos said her views on policy align with Trump’s, which include the belief that four-year universities are not benefiting students as they should be.

“For too long a college degree has been pushed as the only avenue for a better life.

The old and expensive brickmortar-and-ivy model is not the only one that will lead to a prosperous future,” DeVos said to the United States Senate’s education committee at a hearing Jan. 17.

In DeVos’ first higher education address as Secretary of Education, she said Trump’s plan for the first 100 days noted the importance of community colleges because they provide students with options for post-secondary education.

“This plan notes the importance of expanding vocational and technical education, the types of career and

technical education that community colleges excel at providing,” she said.

Victor Borden, a professor of educational leadership and policy studies, said he agrees post-secondary education degrees are not for everyone, but said they continue to serve an important role in preparing people for work and life.

He said higher education provides people with many benefits, such as higher income, better health and greater community engagement.

There are initiatives to expand post-secondary credentials beyond traditional degrees, such as an associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate to post-secondary credentials from vocational schools.

“Many jobs that did not require advanced training now do require it as the level of technology and complexity of such jobs continues to grow,” Borden said.

During Trump’s first substantive speech on higher education at a rally in Columbus, Ohio, in October, he focused on his plan to lower the cost of post-secondary education.

He proposed an incomebased plan for borrowers who are paying back federal student loans.

He suggested the amount borrowers pay back per

month would be capped at 12.5 percent of their income, compared to the Obama administration’s 10-percent cap.

He also advocated all outstanding debt be forgiven after 15 years of steady repayment, compared to the Obama administration’s 20 years.

Trump denounced government regulations contributing to administrative bloat and said he would review taxexempt endowments, so the benefits could be passed on to students.

“Some schools are paying more to hedge funds and private-equity managers than they are spending on tuition and tuition assistance, while taxpayers are guaranteeing hundreds of billions of dollars of student loans to pay for rising tuition costs,” Trump said. “We want universities to spend their endowments on their students, not them-

selves.”

However, Borden said he is involved with multiple agencies responsible for implementing compliance requirements and has seen various efforts to make compliance more efficient.

“I would love to see more intelligent compliance, but I also know it will be a very complicated and politically charged task to decide which types of compliance and regulations to pull back on,” Borden said.

Borden said he’s sure Trump’s administration will decrease administrative bloat in small ways.

However, considering how multifaceted and far spread compliance requirements are, he said it’s difficult to imagine Trump’s administration significantly decreasing administrative bloat.

Borden said he’ll believe it when he sees it.

With a new Latinx initiative, the LGBTQ+ Culture Center and La Casa Latino Cultural Center are working together to serve intersectionality between the centers.

“We each bring a different perspective or strength, and I think students have a greater resource when it’s a joint initiative,” La Casa Director Lillian Casillas said.

Latinx is a group that was created to provide a safe space for those who belong to both the LGBT and Latino communities. This includes undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff on campus.

The initiative focuses on creating a support system and community and looking to increase education and advocacy for the group on campus.

“When people choose to go to one center rather than the other, it’s denying one half of their identity,” said Danielle Hernandez, a graduate assistant at the LGBTQ+ Culture Center.

Latinx arose partially from existing groups at La Casa that focus on Latino and Latina students, Casillas said. The Latino and Latina initiatives were created to provide networks of support for male and

female students of Latino heritage across campus. However, Casillas said it became apparent in discussions that the center had to think about the spectrum of Latino students outside of the gender binary.

Casillas said Latinx is a term outside the culture center that reflects the idea of the gender spectrum rather than the gender binary. Instead of thinking of students as Latino, with a masculine -o ending, or Latina, with a feminine -a ending, Latinx is a genderneutral term.

“I would be neglecting multiple identities by not looking at the intersection,” Casillas said.

It is often hard for students that come from different cultures with stricter gender roles to come out to their families, Hernandez said. As a result, the Latinx initiative provides students a place to find support and discuss these issues with others who understand their situations.

Hernandez said the Latino community tends to be more Christian in faith, and issues of being gay or queer within a family may arise from these religious beliefs. As a result, people who identify as both LGBT and Latino may feel alienated from one side of their identity, she said.

“If you hang out with Latino friends, they don’t under-

stand the coming-out part,” Hernandez said. “If you hang out with LGBTQ friends, they don’t understand why you can’t just come out to your family.”

Latinx is student-led, with Hernandez and Casillas acting as presences from either culture center. The location for Latinx meetings rotates back and forth between the two neighboring houses.

The two centers have always had a strong relationship, LGBTQ+ Culture Center Director Doug Bauder said.

He said from the first day his center opened, Casillas and La Casa acted like neighbors

and have paired with the LGBTQ+ Culture Center for various events throughout the years.

“It’s not only creating these strong groups, but then, how do we bring them together to create a larger community,” Casillas said.

Bauder said he hopes to see the group get a message out on campus to remind people that everyone is made up of multiple identities.

“I think that it’s really important for students to value all aspects of themselves,” he said. “They’re just going to be happier as the people they are.”

exclusive to the individual is the best way to go about four years at IU. “I feel like a lot of people feel pressured to get a certain experience,” Bogen said. “I feel so much happier without the pressure to go to certain events or parties.”

An all-gender bathroom sign partially ripped off a wall on the third floor of the Frances Morgan Swain Student Building has now been classified as a hate crime by police.

While Munroe said vandalism is quite common on a college campus, what qualified this case as a hate crime was the fact that the sign was for an all-gender bathroom and the police report said the word “men” was written on the wall where the sign had previously been attached.

There was an M and an N on the wall with a large gap

between the letters where the sign had been torn from the wall.

The incident occurred around 6 p.m. Monday, according to the police report which was filed Tuesday morning. Police said the damage is estimated at $50.

IU police department Lt. Craig Munroe said police do not have any suspects in the case yet. IUPD will look into the information they have, as well as check for possible witnesses or cameras that may have seen the incident.

The case will be left open for additional information until the suspect is found.

IU research finds caffeine helps prevent dementia From IDS reports

Caffeine is one of 24 compounds IU researchers said has the capability to help protect the brain against dementia.

According to an IU press release, caffeine and similar compounds boost an enzyme, NMNAT2, in the brain that guards neurons in the brain and prevents neurodegenerative diseases.

Hui-Chen Lu, a professor in the Linda and Jack Gill Center for Biomolecular Science and the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, led the study and said the research could develop important drugs and treatments.

“This work could help advance efforts to develop drugs that increase levels of this enzyme in the brain, creating a chemical ‘blockade’ against the debilitating effects of neurodegenerative disorders,” Lu said in the press release.

Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s are caused by misfolded proteins which build up in the brain and affect

more than 5.4 million. According to the press release, NMNAT2 fights against the misfolded proteins in what Lu and colleagues call a “chaperone function.”

Researchers showed how caffeine increases production of the enzyme and also improves memory.

The research was tested on mice who were genetically modified to produce more misfolded proteins and less NMNAT2.

When caffeine was given to the mice, the rodents began to create higher levels of the protein.

Researchers also found 13 compounds that lowered the production of the enzyme and Lu said that information helps understand the causes behind dementia better.

“Increasing our knowledge about the pathways in the brain that appear to naturally cause the decline of this necessary protein is equally as important as identifying compounds that could play a role in future treatment of these debilitating mental disorders,” she said in the release.

History center showcases role of women in war

By Brooke McAfee bemcafee@indiana.edu @bemcafee24601

A Vietnam War protester, a World War I Red Cross worker and a Union housewife in the Civil War will act out the often overlooked roles of women in wars throughout United States history at an upcoming program.

“Women at War: The Home Front” is Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Monroe County History Center.

Women will be in costume and play the characters in first person as they interact with museum guests in the galleries.

The museum is presenting the event as their Women’s History Month program. It will show how these different wars affected women on the Indiana home front, education and public programs manager Erin Anderson said.

“We wanted to do something like this to highlight the contributions that women made that people may overlook because these are not necessarily the glamorous, well-known superwoman kind of stories,” she said. “They’re rather the stories of the wives and the moms and the grandmas.”

Each of the women conducted their own research into their characters, Anderson said. None of them received a script.

They accepted the challenge with enthusiasm.

“It’s really good when you’re a history nerd, and you’re surrounded by other history nerds who are willing to do crazy things like this when you ask them,” Anderson said.

Some participants based their characters on specific people, while others created their own characters based on a combination of influences.

Anderson will be portraying a Union Army wife who is living in Hope, Indiana, while her husband fights for the 67th Indiana Infantry in the Civil War. She said she based her character on a woman from her hometown.

Although she focused on a single person for inspiration, Anderson said she wants her story to provide a general sense of what it was like to be a Northern woman in the Civil War. Exhibits manager KayLee Witt will portray a Native American woman from

“These are tiny snapshots of a particular moment in time. The names may change, but the stories remain the same.”

Erin Anderson, Monroe County History Center programs manager

the Piankashaw tribe during the War of 1812.

She said she did not base the character on a specific historical figure, but instead she wanted to create a character that would reflect a particular historical situation. Her character’s husband is a white man of French background who is fighting against the British and their Native American allies, including his wife’s family.

Witt said she wanted to portray the issue Native American faced in a war in which they fought other Native Americans.

She said she also wanted to show the significant role Native Americans played in the war.

“The Native Americans were very active in the politics of this territory, and I think that’s something that needs to be brought up about a war that people don’t think about much any way,” Witt said.

Other characters include a black woman who is protesting the Vietnam War, a Red Cross worker during World War I, a housewife from World War II and a war production worker during World War II. Anderson said people often have a limited view of women’s roles in war throughout history.

“A lot of people think of women’s roles in war, and they only think of Rosie the Riveter and women in World War II,” she said.

“There are similar experiences that go through all military conflicts, where back at home women are the ones keeping the kids fed and the businesses running and making sure things are still going.”

Although each person is representing a different person and time period, many of the stories and struggles are connected, Anderson said.

“These are tiny snapshots of a particular moment in time,” she said. “The names may change, but the stories remain the same.”

Lakecrest Drive is a part of the proposed fifth area of annexation. In the upcoming weeks Bloomington will hear from citizens who live in the seven proposed annexation areas.

‘Islands’ could be annexed

By Emily Ernsberger emelerns@indiana.edu | @emilyerns

This is the third installment of a weekly five-part series profiling each of the seven areas proposed for annexation of Bloomington. This week covers areas three, four and five, the three sections within city limits.

No one in Mayor John Hamilton’s office really knows why three areas within the limits of Bloomington are not official parts of the city, but people living in the middle of the city may soon become official residents.

Hamilton proposed the addition of seven areas in and around Bloomington last month, a total of 10,000 acres and 15,000 people. These seven areas, which are currently unincorporated, would be official parts of the city.

City services do not currently extend to these areas, though Bloomington is the closest municipality to the people in the proposed annexation areas. If approved, annexation would take effect Jan. 1, 2020.

Hamilton said at his public proposal Feb. 3 that the annexation “will allow all those households and businesses in the community to be a part of the same future of Blooming-

ton.”

These three areas are collectively called the “islands” in the annexation proposal. They are located at the block of Evergreen Drive, North Johnson Avenue, West Third Street and North Kimble Drive and areas around the block; land on both sides of South Cory Lane; and land from the corner of Adams and Allen streets to Bloomfield Road, down to the corner of Weimer and Wapehani roads.

Combined, the three areas would bring 1,709 new residents, 435.08 acres of land and 3.8 miles of county roads to the city.

These areas include Bloomington and Perry townships. Everyone in the annexed areas will see property tax increases. Both Bloomington and Perry township rates would rise to about $2.03 for every $100 of value, with 2016 tax rates.

Annexing all three islands will cost between $124,342 and $155,689 in the first year.

This is significantly less than the other four areas, which could reach up to more than $19 million for one area.

Though Bloomington has been annexing areas throughout its history, the land surrounding the three areas was

annexed from 1990 to 2003.

Why exactly these areas were never included is a mystery to even those proposing annexation.

“We don’t really know why they weren’t annexed before,” city spokesperson Mary Catherine Carmichael said.

“Most of the people here now weren’t around when that was happening.”

Many residents of these areas live in low income housing. Some of them have expressed disinterest in being official parts of the city despite living in the middle of it. They like the freedom they have on the “islands.”

“I can burn, the taxes aren’t as high, and I can live,” area four resident Connie Franklin said.

Franklin, 63, said she does not see any benefit from being annexed when all services are there for her to use, including a city transit bus stop near her home. This is a common criticism of all residents of the annexation areas.

“I just prefer to not live in city limits,” she said.

If you are not sure whether you live in the proposed annexation areas, look at bloomington.in.gov/annex to search by name, address or parcel number.

Annexation schedule Meetings and proposed scheduling for the rest of the annexation process March 20-21, 24: Public information meetings, 6-8 p.m. in City Hall March 22-23, 25: Public information meetings, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. in City Hall March 31: Notice of public hearings to be publicized and mailed to landowners May 31: Public hearings on proposed annexations June 28: Consider adoption of annexation ordinances and any fiscal plan updates July 7: Notice of adoption of annexation to be publicized and mailed to landowners outlining the remonstrance process, if approved on June 28. Landowners in the annexation areas will have 90 days from this day to file a petition against the annexation.

Oct. 6: Annexation ordinances could be eligible for recording and filing Jan. 1, 2020: Annexation takes effect

Family of slain teen speaks for first time

By Jack Evans jackevan@indiana.edu | @JackHEvans

DELPHI, Ind. — The murders that shook this town permeated even the door to a drafty room connected to the Carroll County Courthouse, identified as a museum. The designation might suggest a place of the past, of preservation.

On Thursday, the room — not museum-like at the moment, its wood-andglass cabinets emptied of artifacts and mint-green wall paint crumbling — filled instead with the present, with the temporary.

It echoed with the footsteps of out-of-town news reporters, whose two dozen cameras formed a loose semicircle. A banner at the front of the room bore phrases like “Murder tip line” and “Angels in heaven.”

And, for the first time since the double murder that made a national news story of this quiet town of 2,900, a family member spoke publicly about the lives that could not be preserved.

“This horrible crime has torn a hole in our family that will never heal,” said Mike Patty, the grandfather of 14-year-old Liberty German, whose body, along with that of her 13-year-old friend Abigail Williams, was found last month in woods near Delphi, Indiana.

The girls went missing Feb. 13 on a hiking trail near the Carroll County town.

A day later, a search party found their bodies, and the day after that, authorities deemed their deaths homicides.

In the month since the murders of Libby and Wil-

liams, as law enforcement has released a trickle of information, the crime has drawn substantial attention.

More than 25 law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and Indiana State Police, are working on the case. Last month, police released a grainy photo and audio snippet of the suspect, captured on Libby’s cell phone before her death, and the story appeared in outlets ranging from the Washington Post to the Daily Mail.

Tips and donations both skyrocketed.

Indiana State Police Sgt. John Perrine told media during Thursday’s press conference 11,000 tips have come in, and a reward fund for information leading to an arrest has reached $224,000, including a nearly $100,000 donation from Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay and former punter Pat McAfee.

The tips and donations — some of which also went to a fund Patty said the family hopes to use to found a park in the girls’ memory — have been part of a community effort Patty said has kept the families afloat.

“It’s overwhelming,” he said. “The support that we’ve received from friends, the schools, law enforcement ...

It’s overwhelming.”

In the press conference, Patty became the first family member of either girl to speak publicly since the murders.

Joined by his wife, Becky, who did not speak, Patty read a statement from Abby’s family, which reiterated the teenage friends’ love for each other and thanked media organizations for respecting their privacy.

In a prepared statement and a question-and-answer

session that followed, Patty reiterated his thanks to law enforcement, the media and the community. But he also reflected on the void left by the murders.

The families feel it in the small things, he said. Family meals without the girls’ voices. The unmet expectation of them walking in at the end of a school day. The softball season they’d been preparing for just the day before they were killed, and for which they’ll never take the field.

He remembers it in the last thing he said to Libby, the thing he has always said to her and every other family member before parting.

“In our house, it’s always, ‘I love you,’” he said. “Every time.”

He remembers it as he looks and re-looks at the grainy picture, listens and re-listens to the audio snippet, every day. Patty said he believes Libby would want people to take the time to look at the picture and listen to the audio, to call in any tips they have.

“Somebody knows something,” he said. “Somebody has to.”

As for what police know, Perrine said he had no significant updates for the public. Every tip is investigated, he said. So far 2,000 have already been cleared, while 1,500 are yet to be assigned to an investigation.

He also addressed a handful of rumors that have floated around social media and tabloid websites about the case. Ideas have circulated about connections to the double-murder in 2012 of two pre-teen cousins in Iowa, and while the crimes bear some similarities, investigators have no evidence con-

“The support that we’ve received from friends, the schools, law enforcement ... It’s overwhelming.”

necting the cases.

Asked about rumors tying the murders to occult practices, he said he knew of no specific investigation into the occult, but investigators are casting a wide net.

“We’re looking into everything. We’re open-minded,” he said. “If it’s possible, we’re looking into it.”

The visible marks left in the community by the murders are small and colorful.

Around downtown Delphi, signs in the windows of local businesses encouraged people with information to come forward. A flier in the window of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce advertised a local campaign to “Light Up Delphi Until Its (sic.) Solved,” by way of the distribution of orange light bulbs.

Ribbons of green, blue, purple and pink were tied around lampposts, banisters, trees — essentially anywhere they could be tied — and blew in the breeze.

The rear window of a Hummer urged, in green and purple writing bookended by hearts, “Fly High Sweet Angels.”

The details reflected the community support Patty said he and the families needed to keep going as they wait for a justice that’s yet to be served.

“All we have right now is optimism,” he said.

» PINKINS

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 At 1:30 a.m. Dec. 7, 1989, a young woman’s car was rear-ended while stopped at a red light in Hammond, Indiana. When she got out to check the damage, a man got out of the other car and approached her.

“Are you all right?” he asked.

She didn’t get to answer.

The man grabbed her arm and yanked her toward his car. Other men emerged from the darkness and helped shove her into the backseat. They covered her eyes with a pair of green coveralls — a work uniform from Luria Brothers, a nearby scrap metal factory — and took turns raping her. They stole several rings off her fingers, dumped her back in her car and drove off.

From the beginning, the case simmered with racial tension. The woman, who was white, told police she’d been assaulted by five young black men. But she insisted she hadn’t been able to see well enough to identify any of them. The attack was the latest in a string of “bump, rape and robs,” where assailants rear-ended women’s cars, then robbed and assaulted them.

Darryl’s wife saw a piece about the crimes on the local news. He heard her yelling about it in the kitchen while he laid on the couch in the living room. How could anybody, his wife wondered, do that to a woman?

The police came for Darryl during his shift at the Luria Brothers factory in the middle of a safety meeting. They arrested five factory workers. Darryl still remembers the cold of the handcuffs against his wrists and the metallic insult of a detective’s gun pressed against his skull.

A few nights before the assault, Darryl had been out after work with friends from the factory. They had changed out of their coveralls before stopping at a liquor store. Someone broke into their car and stole all of their coveralls. Darryl and his friends reported the theft to their bosses so that their coveralls would be replaced.

The missing coveralls became the key piece of evidence connecting Darryl and the others to the crime.

In the middle of a pre-trial conference, after months of saying she couldn’t identify anyone, the victim saw Darryl holding his infant daughter and told police he’d been the first man to pull her from her car.

The identification should not have been admissible, Watson would later argue in Darryl’s appeals. Watson suspected the victim was pressured by police.

The lawyer who represented Darryl at trial had never had a case this big and was out of his depth, Darryl remembers. The defense attorney later testified that he had sleep apnea.

He was taking over-thecounter medication to stay awake, he said, and told Darryl to nudge him if he nodded off in court. At trial, the attorney dozed during the DNA expert’s crossexamination. He missed his chance to object when she used outdated science to argue that Darryl’s DNA was present in samples from the scene.

Darryl was sentenced to prison for 65 years for rape, robbery and criminal deviate conduct. The cases against three of Darryl’s coworkers were dismissed.

Darryl’s friend, Roosevelt Glenn, was convicted of rape and sentenced to 35 years.

None of it made sense to Darryl.

He’d spent his whole life in Gary, Indiana and had never been in trouble with the law. As a child, he was a Boy Scout who loved exploring. He was obsessed with cowboys and Indians.

His favorite western was “The Magnificent Seven.”

He pounded drums in the Tolleston High School marching band. He was a guard on the basketball team at Jerusalem Baptist Church. After graduation, he served a stint in the

Navy. He fell in love with a waitress, got married and started a family. He still went to church on Sundays.

He taught his son to shoot 3-pointers.

Before the police put a gun to his head and took him away, Darryl had never been arrested. He says he’d never even had a traffic ticket.

How did he end up in a cage? * * * Darryl started his prison sentence June 14, 1991. He was behind bars for the next 9,082 days.

While he was inside, Beanie Babies invaded American houses. OJ was acquitted. Someone cloned a sheep in Scotland. The president lied about a blowjob. A new millennium began, and the world didn’t end. Towers fell. America went to war. Hurricane Katrina left Louisiana underwater. The United States elected a black president.

A gunman walked into an elementary school in Connecticut and murdered 20 children. Netflix reigned.

Han Solo came back, then left again.

Darryl wasn’t oblivious to the changes in the culture, the passage of history.

He had a television in his cell. Inmates talked about what was happening outside. But he couldn’t feel the ways the world shifted.

He kept to himself and did things that would help him when he got out. He learned Braille, earned a bachelor’s degree in general studies, took Tae Kwon Do. He talked on the phone with his family every day and started storing all his letters in garbage bags when there were too many to stack.

Anything that broke up the monotony was welcome. On holidays, food was brought in from outside the prison. Kentucky Fried Chicken, Burger King, Hostess snack cakes and Coke. He still remembers a piece of cheesecake he had one Christmas.

His family would come to visit, and he’d see the ways his kids had grown.

Sometimes they brought him photographs, awards and report cards, and he’d save them in a photo album that he’d flip through when he sat in his cell.

At times he could feel himself hardening. The distance between him and the rest of the world grew and he could feel himself fighting to close the gap.

“When you’re locked away from society, you can become a cold and careless person because of your own pain,” he said.

“I missed the realness of a person’s heart.”

When he felt the coldness growing, he stretched toward God. His prayers became less structured and more personal, like he was talking to a friend. It made him feel less alone.

His existence was almost monk-like in its discipline and order, each day an echo of the last. Early wake-up call. Head count.

Breakfast. Work. Study.

Lunch. Workout. Dinner.

Television. Bed. Repeat.

Every scrap of time he had he put toward trying to get his conviction overturned. But for the first eight years, there was nothing. Then, after writing dozens of letters to wrongful conviction projects around the country, one stuck.

Fran Watson was running an innocence clinic at IU’s Robert H. McKinney School of Law in Indianapolis. Barry Scheck, the lawyer who’d worked on OJ Simpson’s dream team and ran an innocence project of his own, sent the IU professor a letter, suggesting she take a look at Darryl’s case. He explained the DNA evidence in the case should have excluded Darryl outright and asked her to take a look.

“We strongly suspect a thorough investigation would make this a fairly spectacular set of exonerations,” Scheck wrote.

Watson is a lawyer through and through. Her work with wrongful convictions didn’t — and still doesn’t — depend on the innocence of the accused but on whether the system had done its work.

But she knew the first

TAYLOR TELFORD | IDS

Darryl Pinkins relaxes in his kitchen on a Sunday morning after having breakfast with his son at Cracker Barrel. He shares the house with his nephew, who is a firefighter and is gone for days at a time. Darryl says it’s like living alone.

time she met Darryl that he could never have done it. * * * Watson has lived at the center of the case for a long time, and it shows.

One day, sitting in her office, she tried to recount how she had won Darryl his freedom. To her, every detail was vital. She wanted to explain everything, so she kept hijacking her own explanations mid-sentence and breaking off to brandish documents.

“Do you see?” Watson asked repeatedly.

The professor worked on Darryl’s case for 17 years.

She drove to prison four times to tell Darryl they’d lost another appeal, but she never considered dropping the case.

In 2013, Watson brought the case to a scientist developing cutting edge DNA profile technology. When he analyzed the samples from Darryl’s case, he found five distinct sets of DNA — one for each of the alleged assailants.

Fran filed the new DNA analysis in May 2015.

The evidence was strong enough that the court granted Darryl a new hearing, but not until April of the next year. In January 2016, after three years of studying Darryl’s case, “48 Hours” committed to airing an episode about his story.

Fran used the media attention to pressure the court.

On April 22, 2016, the state moved to vacate Darryl’s conviction. He was supposed to be released the same day. Camera crews circled outside the jail. Darryl’s entire family came.

And then, more waiting.

The paperwork was filed too late, the jail said. Darryl spent another weekend in prison, though the state had declared him an innocent man.

He got out Monday, April 25, 2016. Watson was the first one to see him, dressed in civilian clothes, looking fit in a navy blue polo shirt, blue jeans and Nikes. At his side, he clutched a newsboy cap and a Bible.

To her, it was a sad day.

Even as she stood and watched him embrace his family, she couldn’t help but be angry.

“It never should have taken so long.”

When the family got home, Darryl’s nephew cooked him his first meal as a free man. It was a T-bone steak, well done, just how he likes it.

That night he slept easy. * * * He doesn’t sleep in a cell anymore, and he doesn’t have to wake for head count. But the rhythms of prison linger. He still wakes automatically before sunrise and can’t fall back asleep.

When he was released a year ago, he had no money or home of his own. So he moved into his nephew’s house. His nephew is a firefighter, so he’s gone for days at a time when he’s working shifts at the firehouse. Darryl says it’s like living alone.

From the start, Darryl prayed every day, asking God to send him a woman to share his life with. He didn’t want a girl. He want-

ed more than someone to flirt with, to chase and kiss.

He wanted someone who would look at him and truly see him. Someone he could build a world with.

But he knew he couldn’t begin a relationship unless he had all the other pieces of his life in place. He needed a car and a house of his own, but he couldn’t afford either without a job.

So he started searching. He put together a resume. He spent countless hours on the phone with his lawyers and with the Veteran’s Administration, asking them for help finding an opening.

He applied for dozens of jobs. His resume boasted of his experience in the bluecollar positions he’d held before prison. Cutting metal components, installing gauges — skills he’d mastered in jobs that had long since begun to disappear.

Several times, he came close to getting hired, only to lose out at the last minute. Summer turned into fall.

Thanksgiving and Christmas passed and he was still looking. He knew his conviction was showing up when companies ran background checks on him.

But he had been exonerated. So why was there still a problem?

One company offered him a job and took his photo for an ID badge. He was waiting on his schedule when they stopped answering his calls. They sent a letter saying they were “unable to continue with the hiring process.”

Not long after New Year’s, Darryl was still jobless, still stuck in his nephew’s house. If he wasn’t on the phone or watching sports, he was just sitting.

He hated the silence, so he played music constantly.

His taste was a mish-mash of things he liked before he went away, like The Dramatics and The Temptations, and music his son Dameon showed him, like Chance the Rapper and Kendrick Lamar.

Throughout his time in prison, Darryl stayed close to Dameon. They spent hours on the phone most days, analyzing scripture and talking through their daily lives. When Darryl was released, Dameon bought him an iPhone. Darryl had no idea how to work it. His little nieces and nephews had to talk him through the buttons and swiping. He couldn’t get comfortable with it, so he switched to an Android. He still spent a lot of time fighting with it. He typed with his index finger, hunt-and-peck style. It took him a few extra seconds to answer each call.

Months dragged past with no progress.

His life was still on hold, just as it had been in prison. And then, in March, nearly a year after his release, things started coming together.

With some help from the Gary Housing Authority, he found a townhouse. His move-in date keeps getting pushed back, but he’s hoping to be on his own by the end of the month.

The city of Gary invited him for an interview. They wanted someone to test water around the city. The interview ended with a handshake and a congratulations. They told him he could start in a few weeks.

Shortly after Darryl got the job, his son surprised him by pulling into an auto lot while they were driving around town. Darryl’s license had expired while he was in prison, but he’d just retaken the written driving test and passed.

“See anything you like, Dad?” Dameon asked. Darryl couldn’t afford a car on his own, but Dameon told him he would co-sign for it.

Darryl tested three cars and came away with a used black Chrysler 200. It wasn’t his dream car, but it was handsome and would get him around. After the papers were signed, he got into the driver’s seat and turned the keys in the ignition. He found a radio station he liked and turned it up.

He and Dameon drove to a sports bar and shared a mess of nachos and drank Miller Lite while they watched the Bulls play.

Finally, his life was moving forward.

Key events in Darryl Pinkins’ case DECEMBER 7, 1989 Bump, rape and rob committed in Hammond, Ind.

MAY 3, 1991 Darryl Pinkins is convicted of rape, robbery and criminal deviant conduct.

JUNE 14, 1991 Darryl is sentenced to 65 years in prison.

* * * On a Sunday morning in March, Darryl and Dameon brave the post-church rush and share breakfast at a Cracker Barrel.

They both order a little of everything: eggs, bacon, hash browns and pancakes, though Dameon added a couple extra eggs and got pancakes with blueberries.

Darryl can’t compete with his son’s appetite.

“We’re gonna need a couple extra syrups,” Dameon tells the waitress when she set down three glass bottles of syrup with their meal.

Dameon scrolls through his phone and reads off the basketball matchups and recent trades while waitresses hustle around them.

“DeMarcus Cousins got traded to New Orleans,” Dameon says, raising his eyebrows.

“How about that?” says Darryl, cleaning his sunglasses with a paper napkin.

They debate about the Spurs and Lakers game that’s starting in a few hours and stretch back in the wooden chairs, both complaining that they ate too much.

This is what Darryl imagined for all those years — sharing meals with his son, talking about sports, being normal and happy.

If only his whole life could have been like this.

People have told him they can’t believe how fast he wrangled the pieces of his new life, but it doesn’t feel fast to him. He’s still pushing himself to move faster, so he can start searching for the one thing he really wants.

Darryl has seen the ways anger can warp a man, so he tries to keep his at bay. He does his best not to dwell on all that wasted time, but whenever someone tells him they’re sorry for what he’s been through or asks him what it all felt like, the fury returns.

“I don’t want to bury it,” he says, “regardless of the pain it causes me.”

When the anger comes clawing, he’ll step outside and sit on his little deck.

He likes to watch the squirrels run across the lawn. He likes the sound of the wind.

“Sunshine still feels like a Christmas gift.”

AUGUST 18, 1999 Barry Scheck writes a letter to Fran to ask her to look into the case. Fran visits Darryl and decides to help him.

APRIL 22, 2015 Mark Perlin, founder of cutting edge DNA technology company Cybergenetics, submits his analysis of the evidence and says Darryl is not present in any of the samples.

APRIL 22, 2016 The state of Indiana vacates Darryl’s conviction.

APRIL 25, 2016 Darryl is freed from prison.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 can lose votes. Base percentage vote reductions have not had significant sway on the outcome of recent IUSA elections, but a six-ticket election means a wider dispersion of votes. A ticket with more votes has less to lose from a two-percent decrease than a ticket with very few votes.

Langowski said the evidentiary standard, defined in Section 601 of the election code, is significantly higher this year, which means if a ticket wants to file a complaint to disqualify another campaign, there has to be concrete proof. He said since the standards are more strict, the penalties will be equally severe.

Campaigning in the restricted areas defined in the code could lead to a base deduction of five percent.

Campaigning in an establishment where patrons must be older than 21 years old is also prohibited. Interference with other campaigns’ materials would lose a ticket or candidate 2 percent, while any deliberate act to cause another ticket to violate the election code would result in a vote deduction twice the size of the violation they caused the other ticket to commit.

Using the IUSA office for campaign purposes could lose a ticket or candidate five percent. Improper use of emails, a hot topic in last year’s election, would result in a base deduction of a half percent per email sent.

Voter fraud, one of the more controversial infractions, is defined as any voter intimidation, vote manipulation or provision of voting

technology in person. Campaigns may not hand out goods valued at more than $1 in exchange for votes, nor can they pressure someone to vote for a specific candidate. Violating any of these rules could lead to disqualification or vote loss for any ticket or candidate on whose behalf these infractions were committed.

Campaigns are now prohibited from receiving more than $500 from each of their executive candidates. Congressional candidates on the same ballot may not contribute more than $250. Anybody not on a ballot or affiliated with the campaign may not contribute more than $100 in a single IUSA election.

Tickets cannot spend more than $3,000 and their expenditures cannot exceed contributions. The intermediate financial statement is due Friday at 11:59 p.m. for this election cycle, unless tickets request a short extension prior to this deadline. The final statement is due after the election.

Any combination of these violations, which don’t include bylaw technicalities, could result in a lost election and inevitable IUSA Supreme Court battle. In addition to this, Langowski said the commission cannot write themselves complaints, so an outside party must be the one to detect violations. He said this is because alleging a rule break by any ticket could be interpreted as an attempt to sway the election’s outcome.

The updated bylaws and election code are available to the public on the IUSA website, as are any advisory opinions issued by the Election Commission.

Crean said this team has forged something as a product of many different things this season, which started with a win against Kansas and followed with great wins and tough losses.

IU has picked up some momentum in recent weeks and won three out of four games, but the Hoosiers haven’t won two consecutive games in the Big Ten tournament since 2003.

“We’ve just been getting after it, believing, having

faith,” Jones said. “That’s just the biggest thing for us — having faith and just keeping going after it every day.”

The calendar has turned to March, and IU has gained a new mentality while it regains its early season form.

This mentality will be tested Friday against Wisconsin.

“It’s win and advance,” junior guard Josh Newkirk said. “You lose, and you go home, so we definitely got an edge and are playing like it.”

Laughter said she liked

Ryser because she let her write book reports and essays in the style she wanted, often dropping in funny lines.

“It’s a way to say thank you,” Laughter said.

Poetry in particular is an expressive art for Hawkins.

significant highlights the team could get excited about, but his favorite part was that it wasn’t always the same person carrying the load. Junior middle distance runner Daniel Kuhn has broken a number of IU records this season, but Helmer said the other athletes who broke records made him equally proud.

Helmer said he thinks there has been a standard set for both preparation and performance in the wake of the Big Ten title.

“That’s what I want, whether I coach here for one more year or 10 more,” Helmer said. “Being able to sustain this level of team, effort and competitive spirit for years to come is absolutely what I want. We thought

Helmer said he knows it will take plenty of hard work in order to accomplish this mission.

“As an athlete, it’s impossible to stay the same,” Helmer said. “You either get better or worse. We must become better, which will allow us to sustain this in the future for a number of years.”

We need more community gardens Volunteers can begin Thursday helping at the IU Campus Garden initiative for the spring 2017 season.

Located at The Hilltop Gardens on 10th Street, students and volunteers can work within the IU Office of Sustainability’s edible gardening plot to provide educational opportunities to the Bloomington community and produce for the Indiana Memorial Union.

This amazing opportunity not only helps the community we live in but stresses the importance and benefits of community gardening and food system sustainability in general — something most people do not know enough about.

To many people, it’s common knowledge that energy production and factories negatively affect the environment. What is less universally understood is that the agriculture and factory farming industry represents one of the largest threats to the environment as well.

A study by the World Resources Institute found that the agricultural sector creates 14 percent of the global greenhouse gas emissions: the most significant driver of observed climate change.

To put this into perspective, the agricultural perspective produces more emissions than the entire transportation sector, which contributes 13.5 percent of all global greenhouse gas emissions.

What makes this statistic alarming is that this is the most conservative estimation, and that our current food system will become increasingly unsustainable.

Under our current food production system, the average meal will travel more than 1,500 miles from a factory farm and take seven to 14 days to get to your table. This combined with the United States’ meatdriven dietary preferences, which result in the most

environmental damage, and a growing global population means environmental damage from farming has no end in sight. We need a change to our current food production systems.

This is where community gardens, and The Hilltop Gardens specifically, can help. First and foremost, community gardens help solve the problem of our unsustainable food system by simply educating more people that the problem exists. For anything to change, people must know that the problem exists in the first place.

The Hilltop Gardens succeeds at this goal by providing educational resources for youth, IU students and the Bloomington community.

With workshops like “Getting started with backyard chickens,” The Hilltop Gardens also provides practical skills that help individuals promote sustainability.

Other than education, the Office of Sustainability’s edible gardening space strives to make material change one step at a time. By providing fresh, local produce to the IMU, this garden works to cut down on the 1,500 miles the average meal travels before reaching the end consumer and then forgoes a week-long shipment. Locally produced food contains more nutrients, thus making Bloomington a healthier place.

Community gardens are crucial to making change to our current unsustainable food sourcing practices.

I urge all readers to keep in mind the benefits of locally sourced food, and to either volunteer at the Hilltop Community Gardens, or any other garden in your community. sareynol@umail.iu.edu

COFFEE CHRONICLES

Other developed nations must pull their weight If the United States does something to intervene in world affairs it is both wrong and right.

It will be labeled the world’s overbearing policeman and also the greatest superpower on earth.

It’s impossible for the U.S. to be all things to all people and this has caused many Americans to wonder why other countries, especially developed nations like many of our allies, cannot pick up some of the slack.

These beliefs played well with President Trump’s “America First” outlook, but many decried his pro-U.S. rhetoric as too nationalistic.

While I do not support many of the protectionist policies Trump would like to enact, I do think he is right for calling attention to the gap between the U.S.‘s global efforts and the efforts of its allies.

One of the prime examples of this is the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

After Trump took office, he caused an uproar by claiming NATO was unfair to Americans because they paid more than their fair share in exchange for allied support.

However, judging by indirect funding of NATO, the U.S. does spend the most by funding 22 percent of NATO’s budget. Even President Obama said European allies often did not contribute their fair share to these alliances.

To put this into perspective, NATO member nations are asked to allocate two-percent of their GDP to fund the alliance. The U.S. annually gives money equal to 3.61 percent of its GDP to NATO, while countries like France, Germany and Italy all fail to reach the two-percent goal.

This, coupled with the

fact that the U.S. has the highest GDP in the world, means that many European nations are disproportionately benefiting from U.S. contributions.

It’s easy to look at European nations and criticize U.S. social programs.

This is a contentious subject, but one of the reasons is the U.S. provides the funding for research that benefits the whole world, and it’s not just military.

Let’s take a look at the pharmaceutical industry.

It is constantly slammed, sometimes rightly, about how the prices of drugs in the U.S. are too high when compared to nations like Canada.

However, this fails to account for the fact that the U.S. subsidized drug development and research that is then used by the rest of the world.

When American consumers buy pharmaceuticals, their purchases subsidize the research for the international community.

Overall in 2013, the U.S. paid for 46 percent of biopharmaceutical research.

I think it is easy for all of us to look across the Atlantic and see that Europeans have some social programs that the U.S. does not.

However, this is only because the U.S. pays for things that allow these countries to forgo these parts of their budget.

American allies should be required to contribute more to our alliances, and the U.S. should stop subsidizing the military and pharmaceuticals for the rest of the world.

Maybe then we can support domestic social programs instead. npatwari@umail.iu.edu

Exploring private space travel Government programs aren’t the only ones reaching for the stars So far it’s been an eventful year for both NASA and SpaceX, the private space exploration company founded

by Elon Musk.

With the recent planetary discoveries, the potential change in the Hubble constant, and now SpaceX’s announcement of private space travel, there’s a lot to look forward to.

SpaceX is promoting privately funded space travel, and we think this may be our best bet to literally reach the stars.

Space is expensive. Therefore, we cannot rely on just the government to get our astronauts or plain space lovers into the cosmos. By funding these programs privately, we will get more work done.

When SpaceX announced its plan to send two people on a moon tour, the Indiana Daily Student asked professor Constantine

Deliyannis what he thought about these plans. Deliyannis teaches in the astronomy and physics department at IU. Deliyannis said he loved that NASA and SpaceX were working together to get more work done than they would accomplish separately.

He stressed the importance of recognizing our accomplishments so far and putting into perspective what we will need to do for the future.

It’s expensive to study space, and it’s even more expensive to travel and investigate space. Because of this, SpaceX felt it was more important to fund space exploration privately rather than publicly. The government has a capped budget for what it can give to space exploration. Right now, the government is giving NASA $19 billion of the $3.73

trillion budget for the fiscal year of 2017.

Out of this budget, a projected $8 billion is geared toward human exploration.

While this may seem like a large number, only $3 billion of that is budgeted for actual exploration. The other $5 billion is budgeted for the research that goes into getting people into space.

Of course, that is still a large sum of money.

The two tourists traveling with SpaceX will pay at least $35 million for a ticket, which was the most recent price to send astronauts to the International Space Station.

NASA is paying $80 million per astronaut for rover missions on the moon.

Private spaceflight will one day become its own industry because of the steps SpaceX is taking. In our lifetime, we may see a new era of the space race.

Blue Origin is a private spaceflight company owned

by Jeff Bezos. It announced that it too will be supporting private spaceflights. The rocket design and the astronaut who will be partaking in these private spaceflights were revealed earlier this month.

This brewing competition is not only exciting, but it is producing more technology and information about space travel.

Rather than pitting countries against each other in a race to space, we are seeing privately funded companies do the exact same thing.

This time around, though, if one of them fails, it is not at the expense of the government or the people of the country.

One day humans will see commercial space tourism.

Private space companies are helping us get there.

KARL’S KORNER

A world without women would be absolutely awful On International Women’s Day, social media users across the globe advocated that every day be women’s day.

There’s great sentiment behind that idea but it seems like a rather abstract and difficult idea to follow through on.

Recognition lies at the heart of this undertaking.

We need to acknowledge the role of women in our everyday lives. Maybe the easiest way to do so is to imagine a world in which women didn’t exist.

Conjure up this make-believe world in your mind.

Immediately, you’ll realize a stark difference in this fictional landscape — there are no people. This factor is easily overlooked because most of us don’t wake up every morning reminiscing the good old days when we lived inside our moms for 9 months.

Aside from the obvious absence of human beings, the world would be missing a lot of key inventions as well.

Let’s begin with something easy – the Toll House tubs of cookie dough you buy at the grocery store. There’s virtually no opposition to the gooey

insides of a warm chocolate chip cookie.

You can thank Ruth Graves Wakefield, who sold her cookie recipe to Andrew Nestle and received a lifetime supply of Nestle chocolate. Talk about a baller move.

Sadly, in a world without women, you’d have to say goodbye to beer as well, even though it’s almost exclusively marketed towards men.

According to a study conducted by Jane Peyton, the earliest brewing practices in Mesopotamia and Sumeria show women were the only ones allowed to brew the drink or run any taverns.

Whether it’s canned or bottled, warm or cold, in a glass or a funnel, men have women to thank for their choice beverage.

Additionally, this world would be void of dishwashers, and you’d be forced to wash your dishes by hand, or more likely let them pile up in your sink until they’ve reached the ceiling. Josephine Cochrane created the first reliable handpowered dishwasher because she didn’t like doing the dishes. Neither do I. Smart lady.

A few other household

appliances made by the hands of women include disposable diapers, ironing boards and paper bags. Forget about your neatly packed sack lunches and crisply ironed button-downs because in a world without women, these practical objects wouldn’t be accessible.

Moving on to more serious and perhaps life-saving inventions, let’s say you live on the fifth floor of an IU tenement building and your moronic next-door neighbor caught their frozen pizza on fire. In a world without women, you’d probably die because Anna Connelly invented the fire escape.

Now, let’s take a look at death scenarios that could occur in water. We all saw “The Titanic.” Rose gets toted away with 704 lucky survivors to New York City with no problem.

Without Maria Beasley, who invented the life raft in 1884, Rose would have died alongside Jack on that fated wooden door, which by the way totally could have held them both.

If you were to need surgery in a world without

women, that’s too bad because Nobel Prize winner Marie Curie investigated radioactivity, discovered the elements polonium and radium and was crucial for developing surgical X-rays.

On rainy days in a world without women, you’d be more likely to stay at home, because Mary Anderson invented the windshield wiper.

If you were thinking about passing the time on said rainy day by playing Monopoly, you couldn’t — Elizabeth Magie created the precursor to Monopoly, “The Landlord’s Game.”

As you can see, a world without women absolutely sucks. No chocolate chip cookies. No fire escapes. No windshield wipers. Thankfully, this made-up world is not reality.

The next time you load up the dishwasher or get an Xray, let a woman in your life know how much you appreciate her, tampons and all. After all, she did invent beer. jlkarl@umail.iu.edu

Alumna works on new music video project

By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

IU alumna Stephanie Stewart grew up surrounded by music. With her father, David, playing guitar with various Bloomington bands and a proximity to the IU music scene, the performance world was always appealing to her.

After spending a few years modeling, Stewart has returned to Bloomington to start producing one of two planned musical projects.

“I always wanted to be part of a musical project,” Stewart said. ”I would go to all the shows in town and was friends with a lot of bands. They told me if you like music, you should just start your own project.”

The project, which will culminate in an album, focuses on turning Bloomington into the stage for a video series that mimics that of the popular genre of Bollywood, Stewart said. She is working with her father and keyboardist friend Mike Stone.

“I love Bollywood films,” Stewart said. “I love how they have a story and musical acts that are just so gorgeous and so poignant. I want to create one kind of like that using Bloomington and, if I travel places, adding that footage in as well.”

Stewart edited most of the music videos shot so far using the resources available at the Monroe County Public Library, and the

current installations are available to view on her YouTube channel.

Stewart said she did not study music or any kind of arts classes at IU. Instead, she graduated in 2012 after studying at the School of Public and Environmental Affairs and the School of Global and International Studies.

She said the global recession and the idea that arts-related careers may not be the best use of her full scholarship played into her decision to study something unrelated to art.

“Honestly, I think if you really love art, you should really just do it,” Stewart said. “You’ll research and learn about it on your own, but art really makes you think.”

After graduation, Stewart applied to and seriously considered joining the Peace Corps — the path of foreign relations that her two areas of study steered her toward.

Stewart said after doing some photo shoots with a local photographer and posting the photos online, she was approached to model. From there, she felt drawn to the creative world once more.

After getting a start modeling for a photographer in Chicago, Stewart said she pursued that career path for four years. She said she traveled to places from New York City to Istanbul but the lifestyle became exhausting

by the end.

“It’s a hard grind, it really is,” Stewart said. “You’re always alone, even if you’re with other people. Once you hit 25, they pretty much call you a ‘classic’ model. So it was time to do something else.”

Stewart’s history and experience with the business side of the modeling world helped inform her on some of the similar skills she would need later in the music world, she said.

She read Donald Passman’s “All You Need to

Know About the Music Business,” which deals with contract law and principles of joining the industry. From there, Stewart said she realized the importance of music image and what she did and did not want to do as she entered the new career.

“A lot of people don’t understand this, but as an artist, you produce a product and then you perform it for people or you sell it,” Stewart said. “How you present yourself really determines how your career will go early on. The first year is crucial.”

Vocal students take top honors at Matinee Musicale

By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

Soprano singers Katherine Jones and Amy Wooster, along with many other Jacobs School of Music students, took top honors in the undergraduate voice category at the Indianapolis Matinee Musicale competition. Jones took the first place prize of $1,250, and Wooster received $1,000.

The Indianapolis Matinee Musicale competition is an opportunity for aspiring musicians to compete Katherine Jones with others across a variety of platforms, including vocal, piano and

instrumental at both the graduate and undergraduate levels.

Jones said she started singing in second grade, and her mother could never get her to stop singing around the house. Now she’s a junior in Jacobs and has competed once before in the Matinee Musicale.

“Music has been a constant encouragement though my life, and I feel immensely fortunate to be able to pursue my passion,” Jones said.

“This year was great. I got to go to Matinee Musicale with my best friend, and I am very happy with the way I performed.”

Wooster said she began at a young age as well and has sung in choirs since middle school.

Spring break looks resemble runway style

By Samantha Bunes sbunes@indiana.edu

With spring break just days away, one can only imagine what kinds of trends will appear on beaches this year.

Well, surprisingly enough, some of the same trends we saw emerge on the runways earlier this year are making their way to the beaches of Florida and Mexico as well.

This year has been a big one for velvet. We have seen velvet in many different forms, making a big jump from just being the staple fabric for Juicy Couture velour jump and track suits.

From velvet ankle booties, slip dresses and everything in between, velvet has made a lasting mark on the fashion world this year. By making its transition from a plush, wintery fabric to the beaches, we see that velvet is not going out of style any time soon.

Triangl Swimwear, a highend swimwear line, released a line of velvet swimsuits earlier this year. I know what you are thinking: How well does velvet fair against sand, saltwater and pool water chlorine? According to Triangl, the neoprene and Italian velvet swimsuits are subject to sun fading but will stop peers dead in their tracks when worn on the beach or by the pool.

Like we have seen earlier this year, ‘90s trends are making a big comeback. Triangl implemented these styles in their new collections, but also added their own personal flare. We see the revival of the quintessential “Baywatch”

one-piece bathing suits with high cuts around the legs and a scoop in the back. These bathing suits were very popular in the ‘90s, but Triangl updated the style to be trendier by combining neoprene and Italian velvet.

There is another ‘90s trend making a cameo in swimwear.

Denim swimsuits have also emerged this season in swim and beachwear. From different two-piece styles and onepieces, there is a denim swimsuit to fit everyone’s body type.

You can only imagine what Britney Spears would be wearing on the beaches of Malibu in the late ‘90s and early 2000s.

Another spring break trend that is big this year is highwaisted swimsuit bottoms.

Victoria’s Secret’s PINK line released a collection of these trendy bottoms with slits all along the sides for a more flirty and girly feel. They also designed many different styles of swimsuit tops, giving beachgoers the option to pick what fits their style and body type.

Crop tops, flip-flops and jean shorts will be everyone’s go-to while transitioning from the beach to the pool. At night, rompers, bodysuits and flowy tanks will be seen down the street of Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale.

Chunky heels and wedge sandals provide style but are also easy to walk in, whether trekking to dinner or to the nightlife.

No matter your swim style preference, velvet or no velvet, do not forget to pack your sunscreen, favorite sunglasses and a good book.

“Through that, I gained a love of singing and performing,” Wooster said. “I remember being one of the weird choir kids who loved singing the concert pieces over the popular songs, which pushed me to research more about classical music. My junior year of high school is when I discovered opera and fell in love with it.”

Wooster’s time at IU has been enriched by professionals and coaches dedicated to seeing their students succeed, she said Matinee Musicale was another constructive experience, which Wooster said is crucial for anyone looking to practice music.

“The biggest piece of advice I would give to a prospective student is to find a teacher

immediately,” Wooster said.

“It is crucial to find a teacher who will not only improve technique but also help with choosing an audience repertoire. Also, I would educate a new student to educate him or herself and get involved.”

Being on stage is a transformative experience, Wooster said.

“I love being able to walk on stage and be a completely different person,” Wooster said. “It’s an amazing outof-body experience where I get to play a character that is unlike myself. The feeling of being onstage is difficult to describe, but I best define it as feeling a special connection to the music, the words, the character and the audience.”

Jones said for her, performing is a rush.

“Music has been a constant encouragement though my life, and I feel immensely fortunate to be able to pursue my passion. This year was great. I got to go to Matinee Musicale with my best friend, and I am very happy with the way I performed.”

Katherine Jones, Jacobs School of Music soprano singer

“Luckily I don’t get super nervous anymore but rather channel any energy that could have gone into being nervous into focus,” Jones said. “Most of the time I don’t even remember singing, I get ‘performance amnesia’ the adrenaline basically takes over.”

After the competition, Jones shifted her focus to being a student and working on the upcoming production of “The Music Man.” Thinking about graduate

school, Jones said she often reflects on music’s ability to unite.

“It connects with audience and performer in ways that spoken word cannot,” Jones said. “I think that everyone should incorporate some aspect of music into their day to day lives. It is what helps me get up in the morning and my constant encouragement to do my best and do justice to the music that I am performing.”

MEN’S BASKETBALL

IU starts strong on first day of NCAA zones

Freshmen boost IU over Iowa

By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@indiana.edu | @ZainPyarali

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In March, everyone is forced to grow up. For the freshmen, growing up is especially important.

Playing in their first college postseason basketball game, the men’s basketball freshmen weren’t fazed at all.

Freshman forward De’Ron Davis and guards Devonte Green and Curtis Jones combined for 31 points off the bench and played a large role in IU’s 95-73 victory against Iowa in the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday night.

“We bring a lot to the table as a class and a lot to this team,” Green said. “I’ve definitely grown. It’s been a long year. I’ve learned a lot over the whole season.”

Davis set the tone for the freshmen against the Hawkeyes. The 6-foot-10 forward checked in with 15:08 to play in the first half. Ninety-nine

seconds later he was 3-of-3 from the field with a steal and seven points.

Davis attributed his success to being aggressive from the start and playing low to the ground, per IU Coach Tom Crean’s suggestion.

“Me and coach Crean had countless talks about me being low,” Davis said. “That obviously works for me. Just being active on the defensive end. Defense really works for us. Being active on the defensive end leads to easy buckets on the offensive end.”

He didn’t miss a shot the entire night, going 7-of-7 from the field and scoring a career-high 15 in 14 minutes of play. Davis has shown glimpses of how effective he can be when staying out of foul trouble, and the freshman did tonight by only picking up three against Iowa.

Green and Jones logged big minutes Thursday night for IU off the bench because of early foul trouble from junior guard Josh Newkirk.

Newkirk picked up two fouls in the first 3:30 and sat for the remainder of the half.

The freshman guard duo effectively ran the offense alongside junior guards Robert Johnson and James Blackmon Jr. while they were on the floor.

Green finished with 10 points and five rebounds while Jones added six points, but the biggest takeaway from their play is the two combined for just one turnover.

Jones has had an up-anddown year, from the first game of the season against Kansas when his 15 points led the Hoosiers past the Jayhawks to the last game of the season when he didn’t see the court against Ohio State.

There was a stretch in the Big Ten season when he didn’t score a point in four consecutive games, and Crean said Jones has earned his playing time and felt bad for not getting him in against the Buckeyes in the season finale.

“I thought Curtis went in and did a very good job,” Crean said. “I’m not surprised.

He’s worked extremely hard.

Again, he’s a great example of our program, what happens year after year. The young guys continue to get better and better. He’s a part of that, as is Devonte and De’Ron.” Because the freshmen have played a full season of college basketball, they know their role and what they need to do in order for IU to succeed. Sophomore center Thomas Bryant said he feels like this team doesn’t skip a beat when the young guys are on the floor and knows that they can be counted on .

“Those freshmen came in and helped us a lot,” Bryant said. “Just knocking down shots, playing defense, whatever it was, they went out there and did it. It’s real good when you have other guys that can come in or have been in and can just count on them to go out there and execute for you.”

Day one of the Zone C Championships proved fruitful for the Hoosiers.

At their home Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatics Center, IU qualified four of its five divers who competed Thursday for the NCAA Championships at the Zone C Diving Championships.

“It’s a tough meet,” Michael Hixon said. “Zones are always tough for everybody.

They’re long and the competition is really tough, so you know two girls qualifying on 3-meter and me and James (Connor) qualifying on 1-meter is a great start.”

Hixon and Connor, both juniors, were important players for the men’s team.

Hixon won the 1-meter springboard championship ahead of Purdue’s Steele Johnson by a score of 831.80 to 813.00. Connor also qualified for the NCAA Championships in the event by finishing fourth on the 1-meter.

“You know this is a really hard meet to dive in, as you can tell,” head diving coach Drew Johansen said. “They’ve been diving for four hours straight. Coming off the emotion of the Big Ten Championships, they handled themselves like pros, they were great today.”

Junior Cody Coldren had a solid performance as well, as he finished 11th out of the 18 finalists.

“As Cody gets higher, Cody gets better,” Johansen said.

“So if Cody can get his A-cut tomorrow or in the next day we’ll have all five of them going to NCAA’s.”

On the women’s side, junior Jessica Parratto and senior Michal Bower lived up to the hype. Parratto finished second in the 3-meter dive,

“Michal gets the performance of the day award. Coming off of the injury that she took at the Big Tens, having to scratch that event, it being one of her better events, and she showed us how good she was today.”

Drew Johansen, head diving coach

while Bower finished third.

“This meet is always a marathon,” Parratto said. “We call it marathon diving. We’ve been diving since 11, so it’s been about six hours, but you know this is all about consistency, just literally landing on your hands for 12 dives, same for the boys. So I couldn’t be prouder of the team.”

Bower, a senior from Loveland, Colorado, injured herself during the 1-meter dive at the Big Ten Championships and could not compete subsequently in the 3-meter or 10-meter platform.

Johansen said he was impressed with Bower’s performance.

“Michal gets the performance of the day award,” Johansen said. “Coming off of the injury that she took at the Big Tens, having to scratch that event, it being one of her better events, and she showed us how good she was today.”

After hours of diving Thursday, the Hoosiers will be back on the boards again beginning at 1 p.m. Friday for the women’s 3-meter and men’s 1-meter.

“For now it’s just about doing what we can to kind of lighten the load, and the stress and the expectations kind of moving through the next few days” Connor said.
