Student arrested on rape charges From IDS reports

IU student Si Chen, 21, was arrested on a rape charge early Saturday morning and taken to the Monroe County Correctional Center for the level three felony.

Chen allegedly confined a female IU student to his Tulip Tree Apartments room late Thursday night and sexually assaulted her multiple times, IU Police Department Capt. Andy Stephenson said.

IUPD was called to IU Health Bloomington Hospital on Friday to meet with the victim.

According to Stephenson, officers then located, interviewed and arrested Chen.

From IDS reports

Two men were arrested on charges of burglary early Sunday morning for attempting to break into the Sigma Chi fraternity house after reportedly being denied access to the night’s party.

IU Police Department Capt.

Andy Stephenson said the men, later identified as Levi Drouillard, 27, and Kenneth Mitchell, 35, got into an altercation with a few Sigma Chi members after being denied entry.

One of the men then produced a pocket knife, causing the Sigma Chi members to go inside.

The two men returned later, allegedly kicking in a window in anger after not being allowed entry, IUPD Lt. Brice Teter said. Sigma Chi members then called the police.

Mitchell also faces a charge of public intoxication, while Drouillard also faces charges of intimidation, criminal mischief, criminal trespass and disorderly conduct.

One of the men sustained cuts to his head when he tried to enter the house and was taken to the hospital when police and an ambulance arrived minutes after the men tried to break in.

Sigma Chi sober executive David Holtkamp said no one in the house was injured but declined further comment.

Other Sigma Chi members also declined to comment during the night.

Several police cars were on the scene following the attempted break-in, and the injured man was initially treated in an ambulance before being taken to the hospital.

Last March, after a ballet student reported a sexual assault by a lecturer, IU waited six weeks to notify the police.

In those six weeks, the University uncovered allegations by six others against Guoping Wang, 54. Wang worked as a dance coach in the Jacobs School of Music.

IU fired him in May. Critics say the University should have called the police right away instead of asking administrators to investigate first.

Wang’s defense attorneys say Wang is innocent and argue the delay in turning over the case to law enforcement was unfair to both the ballet student and to their client.

The ballet student said Wang had sexually assaulted her while preparing for the previous fall’s “The Nutcracker.” She said he trapped her in his office, pulled off her leotard and tights and stopped only when he heard someone in the hall.

IU immediately placed Wang on leave and directed University officials to conduct an investigation. The investigation unearthed reports from six more students and staff that Wang had forcibly kissed them on the mouth.

The University did not report any of the allegations to the IU Police Department until May 4. IU announced Wang’s termination the following Monday.

In July, Wang was arrested and

charged with criminal confinement and sexual battery. He is currently out on bond and awaiting a pretrial hearing.

University officials pointed out that they had acted in accordance with their policies and procedures while investigating Wang.

“I feel extremely confident that IU acted responsibly, ethically, professionally, and quickly in this case,” Provost Lauren Robel said in an email to the Indiana Daily Student.

The University’s handling of the case raises a number of questions. Why did officials wait so long to notify IUPD? When did the Jacobs School of Music administrators first learn about any of the allegations?

“I don’t like people who are not trained like detectives and police officers conducting investigations,” said Amelia Lahn, one of Wang’s attorneys. “They don’t do it to the same standard, and then it’s muddying the waters.” * * * The answers to these questions are likely lying in a 13-page memorandum summarizing the findings and recommendations of IU’s internal investigation. The document also contains accounts from the six other students and staff SEE DENIED, PAGE 6

The IDS is interested in talking with students who have any knowledge of this case.

The IDS is also interested in talking to other students who have experienced sexual assault or been accused of sexual assault.

Movember co-founder speaks to greek men

By Regina Mack regmack@indiana.edu | @regmack_

The Movember Foundation that raises millions of dollars for men’s health annually began as a challenge between friends to bring the moustache back in style, said Movember co-founder and CEO Adam Garone while speaking to a group of more than 200 members of the greek community Friday evening in Alumni Hall.

Mostly men from Interfraternity Council chapters gathered for Garone’s talk for the culmination of the IFC’s no-shave November philanthropy effort. Jesse Scheinman, vice president of community programs for the IFC, said more than $10,000 has been raised so far in what is the IFC’s first community-scale philanthropy in recent memory.

Garone said he and his friends who started Movember in 2003 were inspired by what the women around them were doing to raise funds and awareness for women’s health issues like breast cancer and wanted to do something similar for men’s health.

“At that time there really weren’t any campaigns for men’s health and we were were shocked to learn that on average men die six years younger than women,” Garone said. “That’s a long time.”

Garone said Movember’s funding priorities are prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health and suicide prevention, and Movember is the biggest fundraiser of prostate and testicular cancer research in

the world.

“Usually cancer researchers operate in silos at universities, so we’ve been able to create national and global strategies and connect people who are trying to find cures,” Garone said.

Scheinman said the IFC engaged individual organizations to raise funds by recruiting a couple people within each chapter who were dedicated to getting their chapter motivated.

“We saw that we should be doing a council-wide philanthropy, and we really wanted to work with an organization that was pertinent to our demographic as 18- to 22-year-old males,” Scheinman said. “We found that Movember connected with that vision and those values.”

Scheinman said the IFC’s most recently colonized chapter, Alpha Kappa Lambda, raised the most money on the chapter level and said that speaks volumes about the new chapter as an organization.

Garone also advised attendees on the skills necessary for founding an incredible organization. He said resilience is the most important attribute of an entrepreneur.

“A new company does not need much to start, but it must have the die-hard commitment of the founders,” Garone said.

Garone said founders of organizations should lead by example, make sound decisions and stay humble, because ego is a blinding force.

“You spend the first half of your adult life focusing on being successful, but you get

to a point where you start thinking about legacy and reflecting on your life and what you’ve achieved,” Garone said.

Maddi Lasson, a director of service for the Panhellenic Association, said the Movember initiative strengthened the sense of community between the IFC and PHA. “I think this is one of the first times the IFC has ever done a philanthropy that all of the fraternities could participate in to work together on something that truly affects their community,” Lasson said.

Muslims fear hysteria after election

By Christina Winfrey cawinfre@umail.iu.edu | @tinawinfrey33

Middle Eastern Studies professor Nazif Shahrani came to the United States from Afghanistan for college about 50 years ago, but when he was finished, he could not return home due to the conflict that would inundate the region for years.

He decided to become a naturalized U.S. citizen, but he worried about his family’s safety in Afghanistan.

They never expressed concern for his safety living in the U.S. until the election of Donald Trump.

“There is a lot of hysteria that Donald Trump’s campaign and election have created, but we should remember this is a country that prides itself on rule of law and our constitution,” Shahrani said. “Our laws are to protect the rights of all American citizens at all times.”

In his years living in the U.S., he has become accustomed to the harassment Muslims often get due to stereotypes from events, like the war, that are occurring in the Middle East. However, he has recently seen a higher degree of negative actions toward the group. These actions can often leave Muslims in fear of what may come next.

Muslim women are some of the most targeted, Shahrani said. Due to the head scarves they often wear, they stand out as Muslims while Muslim men dressed in typical American clothes may not be so easily recognized. Freshman Hanan Mohamed, a practicing Muslim who wears a head scarf, said she has heard of a few incidents of harassment of Muslim people around Bloomington. This sometimes leaves her on edge.

“Especially after the time change and it being darker so much earlier, it’s a lot more worrisome to be walking around alone at night,” Mohamed said. “There have been stories of people who try and pull your head scarf off or different types of harassment.”

Mohamed’s youth group leader and her family were also called terrorists by a car driving past them.

Mosques have also been subject to hateful messages, Shahrani said. He said a

hateful letter was recently sent to all Southern California mosques, which was not common before.

Shahrani said he believes the recent presidential election played a role in the rise of poor treatment of Muslims. While these issues existed long before Trump ran for office, Trump’s actions have allowed for more acceptance of hateful behavior. This has left many Muslims in fear of what will happen within the government.

The Islamic Center of Bloomington’s executive board has a good relationship with the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Shahrani said. The FBI often reaches out to Muslim communities with concern for their safety.

Shahrani said the Muslim community can help the FBI feel at ease about Muslims in the process as well.

“We are in touch,” Shahrani said. “We have nothing to hide. They periodically contact the board. If we have concerns we also contact them.”

While some Muslim communities have open communication with the FBI, many still fear they are being closely watched and are uneasy about the possibility of a Muslim registry in the future, Shahrani said.

“It is very likely that our mail is intervened, especially electronic mail and telephone,” Shahrani said. “I certainly feel like my phone is listened to.”

While some of Shahrani’s colleagues would rather be jailed than be subject to

these kinds of restrictions, he said he does not get discouraged by the possibility of someone keeping an eye on him. He has nothing to hide, he said.

Shahrani said while the harassment of Muslims in the U.S. may be rising, there are still many people willing to help and show sympathy.

The Bloomington mosque recently received a letter from a man identifying himself as a white atheist. The man said if Trump’s government creates a registry of Muslims, he would proudly register himself as a Muslim in support of the community.

Shahrani has also seen sympathy from his neighbors. One day he heard a knock on the door, and it was his neighbor with a plate of cookies in hand. She was concerned about how his family was feeling after the election.

Other women at a postelection meeting in City Hall stood up and said they would wear head scarves in sympathy if Muslim women continue to face harassment.

“It’s really nice to know there’s that sort of support group,” Mohamed said.

Mohamed said she believes the issues Muslims are facing could be solved if people take more time to understand Islam instead of stereotyping it based on groups like the Islamic State group. Islam is a religion of peace, she said.

A change must be made in the way Americans view

“We are in touch. We have nothing to hide.

They periodically contact the board. If we have concerns we also contact them.”

today’s problems and foreign countries’ actions, Shahrani said. Then the problems Muslims face may be solved.

“The root of much of this problem that we have with the region is not religious — it is fundamentally political,” Shahrani said.

“Unfortunately the media as well as the politicians try to make them religious problems, and that sort of gives them liberty not to talk about the political nature of these problems.”

Since he has been in the U.S., Shahrani said he strives to be a patriot, not a nationalist. He said being a patriot is standing with one’s country when its policies are morally right but also criticizing one’s country when its policies are morally wrong. This stance allowed him not to have to choose sides in the U.S. war in his country of birth, Afghanistan, he said.

“This is where we are not honest with ourselves as a country,” Shahrani said.

“We need to care about the appropriateness of our foreign policy in it’s being in accordance with our fundamental values.”

Stein admitted to dealing marijuana to the officer on scene, and both men were taken to the Monroe County Correctional Center.

Two temporary IU Landscape Services employees were arrested Thursday morning for the possession of drug paraphernalia, driving under the influence, possession of marijuana and possession of controlled substances.

Driver Glen Johnson and passenger Kyle Johnson, both 24, began driving an IU vehicle after arriving to work intoxicated at 5 a.m. Thursday, IU Police Department Capt. Andy

Stephenson said. Their supervisor called IUPD to report the incident.

Officers found the men and conducted a search.

They found a glass smoking device with marijuana residue and a bottle of Xanax in Glen’s vehicle. In Kyle’s pockets they found a small amount of marijuana and a few Xanax pills.

Stephenson said the men were taken to the Monroe County Correctional Center.

Administrators speak on immigration issues

By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@iu.edu | @SarahVerschoor

Since Donald Trump’s election as the next president of the United States, some people have rallied for IU to be a “sanctuary campus” where undocumented students are protected from deportation while they are on campus.

IU Provost Lauren Robel said if IU is to become a sancutary campus, it would have to happen through a Board of Trustees action.

The Board of Trustees does support IU’s commitment to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals immigration policy, which protects those brought to the US without documentation as children from deportation for renewable two-year periods.

“We obviously will support them within the limits of the law, but we do our very best to assure that we’re thinking creatively about all the ways in which we can provide support that are legal,” Robel said. “I don’t think there’s a lot of space there, actually. I don’t think there’s much space between what they ask for and what we have done.”

Robel met with the UndocuHoosiers Alliance on Nov. 28 after they delivered demands on Nov. 16 to her and IU President Michael McRobbie to meet with them and discuss how they will support undocumented students when Donald Trump takes office.

Robel said she thinks the possibility of opposing immigration officials being able to execute immigration law on the IU campus is an unwise step for a number of reasons because of her concern for IU students.

“So, I think the position we’ve taken is we will do everything that is legally

within our power to protect our students and we do everything that we do with our students interest in mind, not with political statements in mind,” Robel said.

Robel said despite what has been said on the campaign trail, Trump has already sharpened his statements about immigration on people with criminal records.

“And as you can see from the DACA program, you can’t have done that to be in this program,” Robel said.

“We have some reason to be hopeful that the new administration will not be focusing on this program although we have no assurances in any direction.”

There are currently 17 reported DACA students on the IU-Bloomington campus and around 200 at all Indiana University campuses.

However, Robel said there are likely more who haven’t identified their status to the University.

“But, we do not know who those people are,” Robel said. “We don’t ask them to identify themselves as undocumented. We don’t seek that information.”

The University currently has resources in place for DACA students. They will also launch a website this week for students, faculty and staff that comprehensively lists University resources.

One of the resources includes counseling for immigration-related issues through the Office of International Student Services.

“We also have a very long list of attorneys who are willing to work with students on immigration matters for free,” Robel said.

The Office of Scholarships also helps aid DACA and undocumented students. Students who are not citizens or legal perma-

nent residents of the United States are not eligible for state or federal financial aid, so the Office of Scholarships looks for private forms of aid through the IU Foundation or other private sources, Robel said.

These resources were outlined in both McRobbie’s statement to the Board of Trustees on Dec. 1 and in a letter sent to the 17 IU DACA students from Robel on Nov. 21.

“So far, we are unaware of students who need help who we haven’t been able to give help to,” Robel said.

“I’m not saying they don’t exist, I’m just saying we don’t know.”

At the Board of Trustees meeting Dec. 1, McRobbie reminded the Board and those gathered that he, too, is an immigrant. McRob-

bie has signed a statement, along with 300 other university presidents and chancellors, in support of DACA and undocumented immigrants.

“I have a particularly acute sense of the importance of immigration programs and all those affected by them for I am, myself, an immigrant, as are my three children, through we are all now proud citizens,” McRobbie said.

While the University has recently declared its support for the DACA program, the UndocuHoosier Alliance and Students Against State Violence are continuing to work on making IU a sanctuary campus. The UndocuHoosiers and SASV rallied separately at the Board of Trustees meeting a day prior to McRobbie’s statement.

Graduate student government addresses campus food

By Chris Mura cmura@indiana.edu | @chris__mura

The Graduate and Professional Student Government assembly focused on food access during their meeting Friday afternoon, including support of the Real Food Challenge.

The Health and Wellness committee brought two resolutions to the floor, presented by committee chair Blake Forland.

Forland brought forward a resolution that would solidify GPSG’s support for the Real Food Challenge, a nationwide effort to provide healthier food options on college campuses.

According to the Real Food Challenge website, 40 universities across the country have committed to making 20 percent or more of food served on campus real food by 2020. The challenge defines real food as food that is locally grown, fair, ecologically sound and humane.

The resolution would compel IU President Michael McRobbie and Provost Lauren Robel to sign the Real Food Challenge Commitment. It would also

compel them to work toward making 20 percent of IU’s food real by 2020.

The Real Food Challenge also includes the Real Food Calculator, a tool that allows students to track their university’s food spending and calculate the percentage that is real.

Forland stressed that for the administration to sign onto the challenge, students would have to make it clear they are in favor of the movement.

“The signing of this challenge in the spring is contingent on student support,” he said.

Some representatives worried that the wording of the challenge sounded elitist to students who can’t afford expensive organic food, especially following a resolution encouraging support of the Crimson Cupboard.

Others compared the financial cost to the physical cost.

“The problem with cost is very understandable, but we need to think about the cost of eating food that’s hurting us,” said Naomi Byerley, a representative from the School of Public Health. “When we support

local growers and local vendors that are working within the bounds of the seasons here, that is cheaper than food that isn’t locally sourced.”

Other representatives were concerned that the resolution didn’t have a concrete plan of action and would only ask the administration to sign onto the challenge.

“I think that this resolution, if presented to the provost, will not yield a result that’s actually meaningful,” said Megan Rohlfing, a representative from the School of Public and Environmental Affairs.

“I feel that there should be a part two, where we say, ‘Listen: commit.’”

Other representatives felt that passing bills that would not see a result was a waste of time as a legislative body.

“Why are there not consequences?” said Shadia Siliman, a representative from the Department of Gender Studies. “Why are we not using ourselves as a body to accomplish things?”

After some discussion, the bill was tabled for voting at a later date after rep-

resentatives agreed that they did not have enough information on the Real Food Challenge or its goals to vote either way and that a plan of action should be written into the resolution.

The other Health and Wellness bill urged GPSG members to donate to and volunteer at the Crimson Cupboard, a food bank exclusively for students, and

to raise awareness of food insecurity on campus.

Forland announced that all members of the Health and Wellness committee had committed to volun-

teering at the Crimson Cupboard for at least one day next semester.

The bill passed unanimously with little hvhdiscussion.

THE SOUL PURPOSE

CONVERSATIONS WITH KATE

Don’t settle for discord

‘Hamilton’ mixtape is a success KAITLYNN MILVERT is a sophomore in Spanish and English.

MADDY KLEIN is a sophomore in English and comparative literature.

If our country’s political problems were described as an illness and we turned to pundits for treatment, our mass diagnosis would likely be ideological isolation.

Whether you prefer to imagine yourself in a bubble or an echo chamber, the popular idea among those interested in politics is to suggest that the left and the right don’t communicate as often, as openly or as respectfully as they should.

Few examples of an attempt at such communication have been received better than The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah when he interviewed conservative commentator Tomi Lahren on Wednesday, and yet the laudatory responses to the interview are disappointing.

Today’s Editorial Board addresses the interview’s implications for the general public and white nationalism, but as an English student, I also took interest in Noah and Lahren’s language.

I argued in a previous column that we could not exempt ourselves from difficult political conversations, but I did not imagine at the time that the trend of bubble-popping would become so dangerously encouraging of complacency. Now, if you can manage to agree to disagree, you’ve done your job.

Your work is finished.

Is that really where we stand? Do we wish to take on no greater challenge than to say, “I think you’re wrong, but I won’t hate you for it,” and move on?

Neither Noah nor Lahren actually hold public office, and most of their audience members don’t either. That doesn’t mean they can’t affect the political process. If we relied solely on our politicians to provide solutions, we would be doing ourselves a disservice.

Part of what sets the standard for successful conversations so low is that meetings of political opponents rarely sustain the dignity necessary for each side to take the other seriously.

Though Lahren is frequently angry and impertinent in her videos, she is never disrespectful to Noah, saying of the general public: “I wish that we could disagree with each other without thinking that we are bad people or ill-intentioned folks.”

These can be hard words to accept from a woman famed for comparing Black Lives Matter to the KKK, or dismissing liberals as “intellectually dishonest snowflakes.”

And yet she emerges from the ideological shelter of her online show with comparative grace, matching Noah’s civility rather using her trademark taunts.

To see this change is evidence of the power of language. That this particular episode of the Daily Show is primed to become canon for the discourse of decency reminds us just how much our words can matter.

“Words, to me, are far less egregious than actions,” Lahren said. This statement is unacceptable, at least not without qualification.

People commit egregious actions when they feel emboldened or justified by words. Genuinely understanding the problems we face requires acknowledging that words and actions are mutually complicit in any evils that exist.

Awareness of the power our words carry should push us not only to choose them carefully but also to use those words to create solutions. It’s not enough to play nice for 26 minutes on a talk show interview only to reach an impasse at the end. We have to start finding a way forward together. mareklei@umail.iu.edu

EDITORIAL BOARD

It’s no laughing matter Trevor Noah’s interview with Tomi Lahren shows a national trend Now that Trevor Noah’s interview with far-right sorority girl Tomi Lahren is nearly a week old, liberals feel content with Noah’s mature treatment of Lahren. Their measured, logical approach to dealing with this country’s mass organization of fanatical racists has clearly been a smashing success.

Another dose of joking around with racists on national television could prove disastrous.

“Normalization” doesn’t even begin to describe what Noah has done. Especially in the case of Lahren, who, to the Editorial Board, is more dangerous than someone like Richard Spencer, the chief ideologue of the contemporary white nationalist movement and president of the National Policy Institute.

Because Lahren is a young woman, the stereotypical view of white nationalism being dominated by men shatters. Though it is naïve to say that white women can’t be ardent racists, the contemporary expansion to include young white women is undoubtedly an alarming development.

If one watches Trevor Noah’s interview, they will find an expose on how American liberalism has failed to stop the proliferation of white nationalism. The fallacy that Noah and other liberals indulge in repeatedly

is to assume that people like Lahren can be dealt with through logic and rational argument.

Noah spends the entire interview pinning down the question of “Is she racist?”. This is amazing considering that seconds before she had called Black Lives Matters “militant” and the “Hands Up Don’t Shoot” slogan a “false narrative.”

Yet, Noah doesn’t once flat out call her a racist or harshly refute the insanity coming out of her mouth.

Instead, he goes into the liberal cliché of giving a pretentious monologue logically explaining how what Lahren says is false. If people like Lahren understood or cared for logic, reason and basic humanity, they wouldn’t be a white nationalist.

We have lost so much ground to white nationalism in the last year and a half because we have passively accepted them. They are well organized, ruthless and hateful and have taken over the country because any hypothetical opposition has refused to fight fire with fire.

The Huffington Post has a comprehensive article called “My Journey to the Center of the Alt-Right.”

Though the article was written a few days before the election, its introduction is now ominous: “I went to a white nationalist ethnostate in Indiana. I got bounced from a secret

meeting in D.C. I spent weeks figuring out how hate gurgles up from the nastiest recesses of the Internet.

And I’m sorry to report that unconscionable racists will be a force in American politics well beyond November 8.”

The diagnosis is clear — white nationalism has become potent enough to fabricate an expansive internet culture. It has symbols, heroes, villains, language and vision.

Its ideology even goes beyond race, harkening back to the reactionaries of the French Revolution.

It is anti-democratic, monarchist and demanding of exaltation to the state, military, leader and nation.

There is no other force in America quite like it, and that is why it has succeeded. Noah’s preoccupation with the question “Is Tomi Lahren racist?” now seems even more ridiculous.

Lahren’s blind, religious-like obedience to the police and American flag, along with her incessant spewing of racist stupidity should instantly answer that question for Noah and other liberals, who choose to deal with Lahren and her cohorts with jokes and rationality.

These tactics have gotten us nowhere. Another futile social media post denouncing these people is not going to stop them.

LUKE LOCKS IN

Trump doctrine of unpredictability comes home Examine each presidential debate over the last year and a half. You won’t only find ad hominem, lies and far-fetched promises. Any seasoned political junkie will notice the lack of substance in these debates regarding foreign affairs.

Foreign policy is saved for the end of debates, and only deals with generalities such as “security” and “terrorism.”

It could be argued that the foreign policy segments of the debates are the only parts that matter, as the president is unconstrained when it comes to war and peace.

President Obama’s domestic policy legacy was a watered-down healthcare bill that barely made it through Congress and the courts. Almost no one discusses Obama’s early decision to send 30,000 troops to Afghanistan — a decision made by close advisors and with no Congressional oversight.

Americans don’t want to believe that the president has more power over nuclear submarines in the Persian Gulf than education or so-

Kennedy encapsulated this reality in a 1960 remark to his opponent Richard Nixon: “It really is true that foreign affairs is the only important issue for a president to handle, isn’t it? I mean, who gives a shit if the minimum wage is $1.15 or $1.25 in comparison to something like this?”

Though Donald Trump himself may not be aware of this reality, the early, visible stages of what I refer to with chagrin as the “Trump Doctrine” show striking deviations from his predecessors.

Other presidents usually put distance between themselves and U.S.-backed regimes. Not Trump. The Donald isn’t even president yet and he’s making pleasantries with the leaders of the Philippines and Pakistan.

The Pakistani government released a block quote of what Trump supposedly said to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, a breaking of international norms. They allege that Trump called Sharif a “terrific guy,” and said he was “ready and willing to play any role that you want me to

play.” For all of Trump’s talk on “radical Islam,” he certainly shows no qualms with cozying up to an Islamic military regime that has nuclear weapons and protected Osama bin Laden for years.

The Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is also on Team Trump. Duterte claims Trump told him that the Philippines brutal extrajudicial executions of alleged drug dealers was “the right way” to go. Reports say Duterte’s murderous campaign has killed around 5,000 people.

Another plank of the Trump Doctrine is “unpredictability.” We’ve recently caught a glimpse at what this word means for Trump with his controversial call to the President of Taiwan.

The call broke with the U.S.’s “one China” policy which goes back to Richard Nixon. In a display of measured statesmanship, Trump took to Twitter to defend himself, tweeting “Interesting how the U.S. sells Taiwan billions of dollars of military equipment but I should not accept a congratulatory call.”

Although the U.S. is an impe-

rial state and the world’s top arms dealer, the president usually doesn’t brag about it on Twitter.

Finally, Trump’s biggest shake-up in the realm of foreign affairs is his obsession with appointing generals to top positions usually held by civilians. With former generals as his national security advisor, secretary of defense, and potentially secretary of state, Trump has broken the concept of civilian control of the military that goes back to 1789.

Many are defending these former generals as honest and brave warriors, showing a religious-like obedience to agents of the state just because medals are pinned to their chests. The military shouldn’t control politics, but Trump is turning the country into a military junta by the day. luwrobin@umail.iu.edu

The long-awaited “Hamilton” mixtape was released Friday, much to the delight of devoted Hamilfans, as the musical’s most avid followers are called.

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s compilation of remixed hits from his Broadway sensation “Hamilton: An American Musical” brings together celebrated artists from different stylistic traditions in a reprise of the cassettetape culture of the 1990s.

Just as the original mixtape tradition preceded the track-skipping potential of the CD, the collection is best listened to from start to finish in its intended order. The significance of the art form, in part, exists in the yoking together of certain stylistic and lyrical selections.

It is precisely this form of selection that lends particular resonance to Miranda’s latest musical narrative.

With the musical’s original mantra of “Who lives, who dies, who tells your story?” this revisionary mixtape captures this central question of narrative selectivity.

By collecting new voices and revised songs, the mixtape prompts consideration of the act of retelling — just as our constant revisiting and recontextualizing of history is best thought about as its own sort of remix.

The stylistic syncretism that the mixtape enables, with its combination of rap, hip-hop, pop, rhythm and blues, reflects the diversity already present in the musical. “Hamilton” is, after all, a critical retelling of a moment in U.S. history, in which diverse contributions to the nation’s formation are brought out from their traditional behind-the-scenes positions in the history books.

The musical’s racially diverse cast and its innovative incorporation of diverse, culturally significant musical genres alternatively foregrounds the equally diverse background of U.S. history, bringing to center stage the historical roles of immigrants and women, among others.

The mixtape, in taking this same sense of diversity and mixing it up, models the constantly evolving cultural composition that defines the U.S. as a nation predominantly composed of immigrants.

Furthermore, the form of the mixtape has historically been central to U.S. art and culture in its democratizing pervasiveness within the population. In his 2001 book “Sonata for Jukebox,” critic Geoffrey O’Brien writes that the personal mixtape is “perhaps the most widely practiced American art form.”

In terms of O’Brien’s assessment, it seems relevant that the predominant U.S. art form would be such a personal, yet dynamic, type of cultural production. The individual taste that defines a personal mixtape allows for diverse individual identities, but the act of compiling and sharing naturally responds to more collective cultural currents.

The role of the mixtape as an art form may have changed to a certain extent with the introduction of digital playlists, but the cultural core of the form still exists in the compiling, sharing and remixing of music.

“Hamilton: The Mixtape” is an example of this cultural exchange writ large.

In short, I would recommend the mixtape as a soundtrack when working on final paper revisions this week. Not only does the mixtape have some great tracks, but it supplies an inspiring form of revision and rewriting in and of itself — in terms of not only music but also history and culture. kmilvert@umail.iu.edu

IU group rethinks stereotypes

By Dominick Jean drjean@indiana.edu | @Domino_Jean

Laughter rang out Sunday night on the third floor of Ballantine. The topics — drugs, race and incarceration — being discussed in Ballantine 317 were serious, but junior Kinza Abbas and fellow student Yassmin Fashir did not let that stop the discussion group from smiling and laughing.

Abbas and Fashir are part of IU’s CommUNITY Education Program and encourage discussion on diversity and social justice at IU and Bloomington.

“What are some stereotypes you’ve heard about places, people and violence?” Abbas said.

The group brought up several stereotypes: super predators, ghettos and the prevalence of drugs in black communities. Perri Smith, an IU student in attendance, said these stereotypes exist because people base their ideas and stereotypes about race on the past.

“We’re basing the future off the past when the past didn’t work,” Smith said.

To better inform the discussion about the origins of the black criminality myth, the group watched a clip from the Netflix documentary “13TH.”

The documentary details the 13th Amendment loophole that allowed many African Americans to be enslaved for minor criminal offenses after the Civil War. Though slavery as an institution was eliminated at the end of the Civil War, it was still allowable under the amendment as punishment for a crime. Historian Jelani Cobb said in the documentary the myth of black criminals arose in this same period.

“The 13th Amendment loophole was immediately exploited,” Cobb said in the documentary.

Abbas said the discussion was also designed to look at a play soon to show at IU called “Exonerated.” The play is about six people, black and white, who were wrongly convicted and then exonerated for their crimes years later.

“We wanted to explore that racial element,” Abbas said.

While the group began with discussions of race and their effects on the criminal justice system, the conversation quickly progressed to drugs. Sophomore Erin Miles, an IU nursing student, said she works in an emergency room and addiction is not handled well in general and should not be treated as

a criminal offense.

She said often nurses patch people up in the emergency room and they are picked up or penalized for their addictions by police.

“The only reason it’s a problem is because we’ve made it one,’ Miles said.

Miles said there is a real stigma around drug addicts as bad people. The stigma hampers what they can and cannot do in society.

“You don’t want to take care of bad people,” Miles said. “That’s a stigma in the medical community.”

Miles also said if someone makes one mistake, some people assume they are a bad person for life, rather than try to help them. Lloyd Graham, another IU student, said that outlook is too simple. Graham said legislation tries to deal with complex problems in simple ways and it is not helpful.

“Keeping things simple is how we’ve always had it,” Graham said. “We don’t question it.”

Just as the 13th Amendment allowed for the reenslavement of African Americas, the criminal justice system can effectively do the same to other people, as well as African Americans, by dehumanizing them, Abbas said.

“You can still create spac-

es where people are not human beings,” Abbas said.

These spaces exist today, Miles said. However, she said the idea of the justice system as unfair was not something she grew up with or what she was taught.

“I was raised to believe the system was fair,” Miles said.

Graham said he thinks the simplicity of the justice system is a huge problem.

He said a one-size-fits-all justice system lets people slip through the cracks. Miles agreed and said instead of a system that works for the average person, it should work for the people on the outskirts and the edges.

Fashir also asked the group where they saw the issue of race in drugs to bring the conversation full circle.

Miles said the issue of drugs has grown since it has moved into white and welloff communities, but the emphasis changes. Rather than people doing drugs in those communities, the discussion often revolves around the idea the drugs are happening to them.

At the end, Fashir said these issues of race, drugs and justice belong to everyone and need to be discussed.

“Everyone is responsible in a sense,” Fashir said.

Chess is growing in popularity among young people in Bloomington through organizations like the Bloomington Indiana Scholastic Chess Club.

BISCC is a nonprofit organization for schoolage chess players interested in competitive chess and skill-building. BISCC meets every other Sunday at the Monroe County Public Library.

Cristian Medina, a doctoral candidate at IU and president of BISCC, said there are many activities to choose from for children but his son was drawn to chess from a young age.

Rebecca Harris, president of the MCPL side of BISCC, said the game’s appeal comes from its simplicity — anyone of any age can play.

“The kids love the game,” Harris said. “I think it’s good for bringing people together.”

BISCC creates a competitive yet supportive atmosphere that fosters the spirit of teaching and builds relationships between the kids, Medina said.

This Saturday, BISCC was host to 10th Annual Bloomington Scholastic Chess Open at University Elementary School. Medina said he expected 80 to 100 kids to participate in the competition.

To spread awareness about the organization, BISCC set up chess tables at the Farmers Market two or three times this season, Medina said. People can play chess and watch a simultaneous game, in which an expert chess player makes one move at a time and plays multiple games at once.

“The expert always wins,” Medina said. “It’s

incredible.”

The best players are geniuses, but the game is beneficial to all, particularly the children, Medina said.

The game helps children develop focus and attention span, he said.

Jimmy Brown, an instructor with BISCC, said chess teaches critical thinking skills at a very impressionable age. Children learn to think ahead, which is a crucial tool when it comes to evaluating opportunities in life, he said.

“You’re taught at a young age the repercussions of your actions,” Brown said.

Because of this, Medina said he’d love to see more children involved with BISCC. BISCC is also working on donating chess tables at strategic places in Bloomington, Medina said. The club has already donated chess tables to Soma Coffee House and Boxcar Books, and it is currently talking with the public library to donate a chess club table there, he said.

Medina also started an online petition to have chess tables set up in public places, such as on the B-Line and in the parks.

The petition has received about 120 signatures, he said.

Though a board and 32 pieces are all that is necessary to play chess, a yearly membership and access to the biweekly meetings is $120 per year, which many families cannot afford, Medina said.

BISCC is having a dineand-donate at BTown Diner on Dec. 10, to raise money for scholarships for students in need to join BISCC. “Chess is embedded in American culture,” Medina said. “My goal is to raise awareness and make it available to everyone.”

“ Why are we taking hundreds of years of jurisprudence that has been refined by the courts and congress and throwing it out the window and putting together this internal process through a university setting that doesn’t have any of the protections for the accused?

IU’s policies on sexual misconduct by faculty

members. During the past two and a half months, the IDS has filed public records requests and questioned the IU administration about the memo and any other documents related to this case.

IU’s lawyers denied the record requests and insisted the memo does not qualify as a public record for several reasons, including the fact that it is part of Wang’s personnel file. The IDS was able to obtain information about the six other alleged victims from an interview with IUPD Detective Nathan Koontz.

Frank LoMonte, director of the Student Press Law Center — a nonprofit organization that advises campus journalists across the country in First Amendment battles — scoffed at the University’s explanation. IU, he said, was making excuses to keep the details of what happened between Wang and the ballet student secret.

“If he had socked her in the mouth, would you regard that as a human resource issue?” LoMonte said. “If he’s ripping people’s clothes off, if he’s physically violent, you have to treat that as an emergency.”

The Jacobs School of Music, established in 1921, is a crown jewel of IU’s campus.

The nation’s second-best music school, according to a 2010 U.S. College Rankings review, produces ballerinas who often land jobs in the highly competitive world of dance.

In the ballet program, students strive for coveted roles in the annual production of “The Nutcracker.” This year’s production ended Sunday.

Wang, a native of China, danced with the Shanghai Ballet Company for 11 years before joining the Ballet Chicago in 1993. He became a full-time lecturer at IU in 2007 and was promoted to senior lecturer in 2014. Last year, he coached dancers in “The Nutcracker.”

Wang declined to be interviewed for this article. The ballet student did not respond to interview requests. Gwyn Richards, dean of the music school, declined to be interviewed but emailed a short statement to the IDS. “The Jacobs School handled the case as advised by the offices of the campus,” Richards wrote. “As you can imagine, their assistance was invaluable.”

Koontz and another IUPD detective wrote and filed an affidavit after Wang’s arrest.

According to the sworn statement, Wang asked the student to stay late after a rehearsal Nov. 6, 2015, to work on her technique.

Wang suggested the student move from the dance studio to the hall to practice stretches. Then he invited her into his office, where he left the door open. He demonstrated stretches in which he laid on his back, then asked

“ Procedures for Responding to Incidents Involving Allegations of Faculty or Staff Sexual Misconduct The University will promptly respond to all complaints of Sexual Misconduct alleged against a University employee. Any individual reporting that they have been a victim of sexual violence will be informed of how to, and provided assistance in, making a criminal complaint with the appropriate law enforcement agency.” “ All procedures, excluding any appeal, should be completed within 60 days, absent any special circumstances.” “ Upon receipt of a complaint against faculty or staff, an Investigator will conduct an initial assessment to determine whether it falls within the scope of the Sexual Misconduct Policy, and whether it rises to the level of an allegation of sexual misconduct. The initial assessment will include informing complainants and respondents regarding the nature of allegations and explanation of this policy and procedures.” “ Report of Investigation The Investigator will create a report of the investigation setting forth: 1. factual determination(s); 2. recommendation as to whether the respondent is responsible for the sexual misconduct using a preponderance of the evidence standard (more likely than not); and 3. recommendation as to appropriate sanctions, if any, as set forth below.”

the student to mirror him.

While she was on the floor stretching, Wang tried to forcibly kiss her, the detectives said. The student pushed him away and stood to leave, but Wang closed the door.

The student felt frozen, the affidavit said.

“Please Guoping, no, this can’t happen,” she said.

According to the detectives, he pulled off the student’s leotard and tights.

Both of them heard a noise from down the hallway. Wang walked toward the door, and the student stood and pulled up her leotard and tights. She was able to walk away.

As she left, Wang allegedly told her not to tell anyone about what happened.

The student immediately texted her roommate, who met her outside the Musical Arts Center. For a while, she told no one else. She continued to rehearse for “The Nutcracker” and performed as scheduled. After winter break, Wang bought the student a birthday gift — the affidavit does not describe the gift — and tried to deliver it through her dance partner. The victim then told her dance partner what had happened.

Wang continued to work with the ballerina and other students as he coached them for the spring ballet. On the Monday following the spring ballet’s final performance, the ballerina reported the alleged assault from November to an IU employee.

Given the position of power Wang had over the ballet student, the five-month delay on reporting the incident isn’t surprising, said Audrey Moore, a Middle Way House

crisis line employee.

“She probably didn’t want to compromise this thing she worked so hard on,” Moore said. “Every person who has experienced sexual or domestic violence has amazing reasons for why they choose to report, or why they don’t.”

The University placed Wang on temporary leave and, following its policies outlined as “UA-03,” launched its own investigation involving the Title IX Coordinator, the Office for the Vice President of Research and General Counsel. Nothing in the policy prohibits the University from immediately calling the police.

At some point during the six-week investigation, the ballet student requested police involvement, according to the affidavit. After the assault was reported to police, IUPD detectives interviewed the ballet student. In the affidavit, they described her credibility and demeanor. “(Her) account was very similar to the account that was described in the memorandum. She did not deviate in any way ... Her statement appeared to be credible and her behaviors and stress indicators appeared to be authentic as if she was telling the truth.”

Despite IUPD’s belief that the student told the truth, officers waited months, until July 14, to arrest Wang. It took that much time, IUPD Capt. Andy Stephenson said, to reach and interview all of the seven people who reported unwanted advances.

IU officials told Stephenson Wang had been placed on leave and was not allowed to return to campus. They didn’t tell him why. The police

did not learn of the details of Wang’s alleged sexual misconduct until May 4, Stephenson said.

concerned about the music school’s efforts to keep the allegations quiet.

The music school’s Dean Richards sent a memo to music students May 9 informing them Wang had been fired.

“Student safety is of paramount importance to the university, and to the Jacobs School,” Richards wrote in his email.

“Should you receive an inquiry from the media, do not feel compelled to respond,” Richards wrote. “And instead forward it to my office.”

The dean’s words, while not an explicit request for secrecy, served as a warning to students who may wish to speak with the media, LoMonte said.

“Most people read that and assume there’s a punishment,” he said.

The policies that concealed the investigation and its findings from public view are not distinct to IU. Universities across the country are interpreting the congressional Violence Against Women Act as justification for investigating sex crimes through the Title IX office, as opposed to involving law enforcement, LoMonte said.

“When you run an investigation through the Title IX office, you buy yourself additional secrecy,” LoMonte said. “People are purposefully using Title IX rather than the police.” * * *

* * * The probable cause affidavit is public record. What is not part of the public record is the 13-page report.

IU’s General Counsel denied the IDS’s request to see the 13-page report on the grounds that the report was part of Wang’s faculty personnel file, contained information protected by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and belonged to the IUPD investigatory record.

After reviewing the original records requests and IU’s denial of the requests, Frank LoMonte of the Student Press Law Center laid out several reasons why the report should be accessible.

“This is a complete misstatement of Indiana law,” LoMonte said after reviewing the records request denial. “If they used the document to make a decision on personnel status, it is not exemption ... the law says they have discretion to withhold or not withhold.”

The report’s place in IUPD’s investigatory record should have no bearing on a University decision to release it, he added.

“The fact that the report is being used by police is a completely bogus excuse,” LoMonte said. “This exemption applies to information police gather themselves ... The fact that police stick it into the file does not make it investigatory.

That’s just wrong.”

LoMonte was also

Wang’s defense attorneys expressed many concerns about IU’s decision to delay notifying the police.

Wang’s defense attorney, Katharine Liell, said the decision is indicative of a larger issue. Universities should not be conducting investigations parallel to law enforcement.

“Why are we taking hundreds of years of jurisprudence that has been refined by the courts and congress and throwing it out the window and putting together this internal process through a university setting that doesn’t have any of the protections for the accused?” Liell said. * * * The 13-page report could answer the following questions: To whom within the ballet department did the alleged victim report her assault?

Which staff members reportedly experienced sexual misconduct, and did they report those acts to the music school administration?

Why did it take IU so long to notify the police? Were the victim’s wishes a part of that decision?

Liell and Lahn, who defend many students accused of assault during Title IX hearings, said they believe these internal investigations are problematic for everyone.

“It is a terrible process,” Liell said. “I don’t even know if it can be fixed.”

GOING BOWLING Tom Allen adjusts to head coach role as IU earns bowl bid Sunday

By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu | @TaylorRLehman

There are unsettling differences between the beginning of December 2015 and the beginning of December 2016 for the IU football program.

After a 6-6 season last season, IU Athletics Director Fred Glass was welcomed into practice by thenCoach Kevin Wilson. Glass stood in front of the team, reached into his jacket and pulled out two New York Yankees baseball caps.

“We’re going to New York,” Glass said, and the players celebrated a bid to the New Era Pinstripe Bowl in New York City.

Fast-forward to December 2016 after another 6-6 season, and Fred Glass has accepted a bid to the 2016 Foster Farms Bowl to play No. 19 Utah on Dec. 28 in Santa Clara, California. IU is going to back-to-back bowl games for the first time since 1990-91.

However, the athletic director didn’t tell Wilson. He told new IU Coach Tom Allen, who told his team on its first practice without its head coach of six years.

Wilson resigned Thursday.

“When something like this happens, there’s just a lot of questions — questions on the coaches, questions on their future, everything,” Allen said. “For me it’s a matter of calming everybody down and saying, ‘Here’s what we’re gonna do. This is the vi-

sion between now and getting us to the bowl game.’”

The days since Wilson’s resignation have been a whirlwind for Allen.

Fewer than 12 months after being hired by Wilson as IU’s defensive coordinator, Allen saw investigations into Wilson’s treatment of players and philosophical differences between Wilson and Glass lead Wilson to resign.

The day after unexpectedly accepting his new head coaching job, Allen flew to Florida and watched his son and IU commit, Thomas Allen, move on to the state finals of Class 7A football with the Plant High School Panthers.

The new coach was back in Bloomington on Sunday though, for practice and was ready to lead a team filled with players openly concerned about Wilson’s situation.

“It’s been a really crazy few days, but it’ll calm down,” Allen said. “At the same time, it’s been exciting. Our coaches are banding together, locking arms and just attacking this thing together.”

The attack begins by keeping everything as close to the way it was before Thursday.

The last thing the new coach wants to do is change the culture and environment of the team before it plays its biggest game of the season, Allen said. Wilson’s culture drove the Hoosiers to two consecutive bowl bids and four consecutive Old Oaken Buckets.

The program hasn’t seen this kind

of success in decades.

Every player on the team was recruited by Wilson. This includes firstyear Hoosier quarterback Richard Lagow and the rest of the IU offense, which Allen — a defensive-minded coach — said he’s not touching until after the bowl.

He will limit the coaching changes until after the bowl game.

Quality control contributor Shawn Watson — who coached former Louisville quarterback and current Minnesota Viking Teddy Bridgewater — is now quarterbacks coach.

Offensive coordinator Kevin Johns also coached the quarterbacks and wide receivers while Wilson was coaching in addition to swapping play-calling duties with the head coach by quarter. Watson’s promotion takes some pressure off Johns while he calls all the offense’s plays, Allen said.

Everything else remains the same.

“We haven’t made a lot of changes up to this point,” Allen said. “We want our guys to be comfortable with what we’re doing offensively and defensively and want the schedule to be similar. As far as our guys and who we’ll be coaching with, it’ll be very similar for sure.”

As Allen turns his focus toward the bowl game, the new head coach said he knows little about the Utah Utes. He hasn’t seen them play all year.

The Hoosiers didn’t face a team from the Pac 12 conference this sea-

“It’s been a really crazy few days, but it’ll calm down.

At the same time, it’s been exciting. Our coaches are banding together, locking arms and just attacking this thing together.”

son, and the last time they played a Pac 12 team was in 2004 when they defeated then-No. 24 Oregon, 30-24.

Allen said studying one opponent for an entire month can make a game become stale and curb enthusiasm, so he plans to use the next few weeks to help players rest after 10 consecutive weeks without a bye week.

He’s already downloaded a lot of film, though, which he’ll study while he’s on the recruiting trail this week as he works to develop a plan to take on one of the Hoosiers’ toughest opponents this season.

Utah is 8-4 with wins against USC and UCLA and narrow losses to Oregon and current No. 4 Washington.

Allen said he’s watched the Utes in the past and knows they are a spread offense, but that’s about it.

“It’s a team where there’s not really a common opponent, so it’ll be a challenge,” Allen said. “They’re not going to be running the triple option, I know that. They aren’t going to be in the I-formation a whole lot, I know that.”

HUSS REPORT

Foster Farms Bowl offers IU another chance to break through The beginning of IU Coach Tom Allen’s tenure as head coach will start when IU takes on No. 19 Utah in the Foster Farms Bowl on Dec. 28 in Santa Clara, California.

Some predictions had the Hoosiers in Nashville, Tennessee, in the Music City Bowl, a destination that would have fit IU well, but the Foster Farms Bowl still presents the team with an opportunity to prove itself against a quality opponent.

Allen said the Hoosiers’ challenging Big Ten East schedule has prepared them well.

“I think anytime you play a great schedule like we play, it allows you to have the confidence to know, ‘Hey, we played some awfully good football teams this year,’” Allen said.

Utah is a really tough opponent, but this game offers IU that chance to break through against top-level competition on the national stage.

In Allen’s introductory press conference, he noted his intention to continue to grow the program.

“My goal for this program is to break through in 2017,” Allen said. “We’ve been close. I joked about it in my last press conference. I’m tired of getting text messages from my buddies telling me how hard we play, how close we are. Those things are true. It’s time to break through.”

While Utah isn’t a traditional power like Ohio State and Michigan, beating Utah would be a perfect way to kick off the Allen tenure.

Utah also offers IU a new opponent because IU doesn’t typically play Pac12 teams.

The Hoosiers have not played a Pac12 team since 2004, when they played the Oregon Ducks.

“It’s fresh, and it’s new, absolutely,” Allen said. “It’s a team where there’s not going to really be any common oppo-

nent. There’s going to be a whole new challenge.”

Teams’ mindsets are often hard to gauge heading into bowls because the game is so far removed from the regular season and their normal schedules.

Add to that coaching changes and players deciding if they want to enter the NFL draft, and there’s nothing consistent about bowl games.

Allen said his players were chomping at the bit to get back to practice, and from what we’ve seen from their messages of support on Twitter, the players are going to use this bowl as an opportunity to rally around each other and their coach.

However, the turmoil swirling around the program makes this game more difficult for the Hoosiers than previously expected.

“I think anytime you play a great schedule like we play, it allows you to have the confidence to know, ‘Hey, we played some awfully good football teams this year.’”

Tom Allen, IU football head coach

The location, from a travel standpoint, is far from ideal. It’s going to be hard for Hoosier fans to watch in person the first game of Allen’s time as head coach, but California is a nice reward for the players who have earned this opportunity.

IU’s moving forward as a program, and the Foster Farm’s Bowl is just another step in the right direction. aphussey@indiana.edu @thehussnetwork

MEN’S BASKETBALL

IU defense keeps Southeast Missouri at bay

By Andrew Hussey aphussey@indiana.edu @thehussnetwork

IU men’s basketball has never lost to an Ohio Valley conference team.

That remained the case Sunday as IU beat Southeast Missouri State, 83-55.

The Hoosiers’ defense was beyond stifling against the Redhawks and kept the visitors to 31-percent shooting.

The Redhawks went just 1-of-14 in the first eight minutes of play, while everything clicked for the Hoosiers and the home quad jumped out to a 16-point lead early in the first half.

However, Southeast Missouri was able to mount a comeback and close the deficit to five at one point in the first half.

“We had a great start to the game, a fantastic start, and then we needed to get our second wind back, ” IU Coach Tom Crean said.

Junior guard Robert Johnson paced the Hoosiers’ attack and helped IU get off to a hot start. Johnson had a team-high 17 points, but his role went far beyond scoring.

“He’s very important from a leader-player standpoint” freshman forward De’ron Davis said. “He controls the tempo on the floor,

and he controls everybody pretty much. As a team, we’re working on our communication, but Rob really controls the tempo.”

Communication was an issue for IU in its lone loss of the season against Fort Wayne; however, those problems seem to have been rectified.

The improved communication helped IU’s defense be a dominant force Sunday.

“I think it was just the connectivity of ourselves on the defense,” Johnson said.

“The guys are really talking and active, especially in that one stretch in the first half.

I think we set the tone early how we wanted to handle certain guys and take away tendencies.”

The only negative aspect for the Hoosiers was IU’s turnover problem, which has plagued the team all season and was used

by Southeast Missouri to mount its only comeback attempt.

However, IU responded with an eight-nothing run, which gave the team more breathing room heading into halftime.

IU had 18 turnovers against Southeast Missouri, and Crean said he knows they have to clean those up.

“We have to commit less of them,” Crean said. “We’ve got to do a better job with

the ball.”

IU started the second half on a 10-to-1 run, sparked by freshman guard Curtis Jones.

He had five points in that stretch and helped the Hoosiers take firm control of the game.

Crean praised IU’s defensive effort in the second half, which possibly was even more effective than it was in the first 20 minutes and forced the Redhawks to go on another long drought of nearly eight minutes without scoring.

IU cruised in the second half and never got a real threat from the Redhawks.

The victory marked the end of a difficult four games in eight days for the Hoosiers.

“I think it was pretty tough,” Johnson said. “I’m

proud of the way the guys fought and found the energy to be locked into things like shootaround to film. I think it’s a really big jump for our young guys as far as how you have to prepare every game. I think overall it was a good week.”

Hoosier Thomas Bryant shows all-around value in win

By Zain Pyarali zpyarali@iu.edu | @ZainPyarali

Sophomore Thomas Bryant likes to have fun when he plays basketball, and IU Coach Tom Crean said that’s when the standout big man is at his best.

With just more than four minutes remaining in the game, Bryant caught an entry pass on the low block,

drop stepped and finished with a two-handed dunk.

Although this may seem like a normal occurrence for the sophomore, this was Bryant’s first made field goal Sunday.

He finished just 1-for-2 from the floor with seven points while knocking down five of six free throws in IU’s 83-55 win against Southeast Missouri State.

While Bryant was in a funk offensively late in the first half, he made a hustle play when he threw his body to the floor. The ball went out of bounds as the Redhawks regained possession, but Crean motioned Bryant over to the bench. The head coach gave his sophomore forward a chest-bump and sent him back out on the floor. It was just the little ex-

tra energy Bryant needed.

“Just be excited and have energy,” Crean said about the exchange between him and Bryant. “He wants to play at a level moving forward where this is an average week and wants to do it for a decade plus. He was putting too much pressure on himself, not having fun, and that’s when he’s at his best.”

During a week in which IU played four games including Wednesday night’s matchup against No. 3 North Carolina, the big man from Rochester, New York, logged 30 key minutes against the Redhawks on Sunday.

He brought down 10 rebounds and tallied three assists while terrorizing the Southeast Missouri offense on his way to recording

four blocks and three steals.

His only shot attempt other than the dunk was a missed 3-pointer two minutes into the second half.

The 6-foot-10 Bryant handled the Redhawks down low. As a team, Southeast Missouri finished the night with zero points in the paint and at a season-low SEE BRYANT, PAGE 11

Music summit offers industry experts’ advice

By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@ius.edu | @katiechrisco

A table with coffee, cookies and other snacks lined the right side of the Frangipani room at the Indiana Memorial Union on Saturday afternoon.

Music Industry Networking club members and other students interested in the music industry chatted and snacked while waiting for the Bloomington Music Summit to begin.

Presented by MINC, the Live from Bloomington Concert series and the Union Board Music committee, the summit is an annual conference for students interested in careers in the music industry.

The conference featured three panels with music industry executives discussing their careers in the industry and offering advice to the students.

Union Board Music Director Katherine Jordan said many of the speakers or panelists were IU alumni. She said she reached out to people she knew who worked in music in order to fill the panel slots.

Cydney Mosby, director of Live from Bloomington, said it wasn’t difficult to find music industry executives willing to participate or speak at the

Music industry professionals speak on the shift toward streaming and advertising during the Bloomington Music Summit on Saturday afternoon in the Indiana Memorial Union.

summit.

She said they tapped into the IU alumni network.

“That really helped because all of the alums are super excited to come back and speak about their professional experience with students,” she said. “There were a lot of people who were super willing to come back and see the campus for a weekend anyway.”

The conference opened

with a keynote address given

by Jon Reens, vice president of marketing for the Midwest region of Live Nation, the liveevents company.

Reens spoke about how he became involved in the professional music industry after graduating with a degree in environmental science from DePaul University.

He said the students who attended the event had a great

opportunity to become the next generation of the music industry.

“Don’t do it for money,” he said. “Don’t do it for stature.

Don’t do it because you think it’s cool. Do it because you’re passionate about it.”

After the keynote presentation, the first panel, titled “Hoosiers to Hollywood,” began with music industry executives from the Walt Dis-

ney Company, Live Nation and others.

Monika Herzig, jazz musician and School of Public and Environmental Affairs professor, moderated the panel.

During the panel, the music executives discussed their careers and advice for the students and how the music industry is changing with a shift from physical copies of music to streaming online.

David Watts, manager of editorial content for the Disney Music Group, said the problem with streaming is artists aren’t being paid for their work.

“If everything is available and you can have it all the time, you don’t want it anymore,” he said. “I say buy music, buy CDs, buy vinyl, go see shows.”

After the conclusion of the panels, students were encouraged to network with the speakers and panelists.

Mosby worked on the summit last year as well, and said this year’s panels were larger than in the past.

Jordan said this year’s panels also had a wider range of speakers, from their fields of work to how advanced they are in their careers.

“We have some panelists who only graduated last year and are just getting started, and then we have people who have worked with artists like Britney Spears, NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys,” she said.

Jordan said this is only the third year the summit has occurred, but it is growing and she looks forward to seeing what will happen in the future.

“Hopefully it’ll be a continued tradition,” she said.

IU holiday tradition sees another year, new material

People gather to look at the photos and paintings exhibited Friday, July 5, at Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center. This is part of the Gallery Walk event that takes place the first Friday of every month.

Artists showcase sculpture, print, paint across downtown

By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

December’s Gallery Walk invited a variety of artists to showcase their works across Bloomington’s multitude of art spaces Friday.

Three of the galleries participating, The Venue Fine Art & Gifts, The Blueline, and Gather handmade shoppe & co. displayed artists using different mediums, some three-dimensional and others on flat canvas.

The Venue Fine Art & Gifts featured a sculpture show, with metal pieces created by artist Bert Gilbert, an IU alumnus with a Bachelor of Arts in sculpture and painting.

“I didn’t really use my degree for many, many years because I have an old house and I have a family, I have a business that I run, Gilbert Construction,” Gilbert said. “When my son left for school at Yale, I suddenly had time, so I went back and started doing art. That’s kind of my mid-life crisis — doing art rather than a convertible or a girlfriend.”

The works Gilbert included at the show came from across the seven years he has been practicing and cross lines of technique.

Hesaid to make the pieces exhibited in this show, he used many techniques, including direct burnout, which incorporates the physical object in making a mold for the metal, as well as hot wax, which is a multi-step process involving the creation of a few more molds.

“I’ve tried to show the textural qualities of the ma-

terial, you can see the stitching on the boot and the thread on the boot, as well as the broader texture, like this piece where you have a little bit more of a visual imagery that’s formed by the gases burning out of the material,” Gilbert said.

The Blueline continued its RIOT series with RIOT 2, a collection of works by more than 10 local artists working across mediums. The works are smaller and can be purchased as holiday gifts.

Artists featured in this show include Benjamin Pines, Jessica Newlin, Erik Probst and many others.

The space was set up in the style of a living room, with couches and coffee tables on each end of the gallery, and paintings of a variety of sizes and forms dotting each of the surrounding walls. The subject matter ranged from self-portraiture to abstract forms.

Gather, in its gallery space, presented the work of artist Elizabeth Busey, who works in fine art printmaking.

In the show, Busey included both traditional prints, a few printed on a non-traditional material, silk, and collages made from pieces that did not register correctly.

The pieces all made by using linoleum blocks to transfer the prints onto the material in a style Busey said is known as reduction linocuts.

“It’s easier in some ways because you don’t have to worry about carving in the wrong place on different blocks, on the other hand, you can’t go backward,” Busey said. “If you’ve

“That’s kind of my mid-life crisis — doing art rather than a convertible or a girlfriend.”

Bert Gilbert, artist and IU alumnus

made a decision to carve something away, you’re pretty committed to that, which I think makes it more exciting.”

Busey also created collages from pieces of linocuts that were not as successful as full pieces, which she said was a therapeutic experience.

“There are always linocuts that are either test ones or ones that didn’t quite line up,” Busey said.

“In printmaking you need to register something, meaning the block prints the same place every time. When it’s misregistered, it’s almost like your newspaper when the comic page is blurry.”

Busey said she is currently inspired by natural patterns such as clouds and topography, and also by the mathematical sequences found in up-close views of nature.

One of the pieces on display is references the appearance of a sunflower she grew, though Busey said she tries to allow audiences the chance to decide what they are seeing when they examine her work.

“I try to title things so it’s a bit ambiguous, so people have their own interpretations of what they’re seeing,” Busey said. “They might see something completely different, and I don’t want to change that experience for them.”

The buzz in the IU Auditorium was deafening Saturday afternoon as the audience regrouped following the matinee performance of Chimes of Christmas.

The production, a collaboration between Singing Hoosiers and other oncampus and local music and dance groups, was directed

by Jacobs School of Music visiting lecturer Ly Wilder.

Wilder has been the interim director of Singing Hoosiers for the last two years and was with the group for three years prior to taking the position. She said almost all of the show’s material, including a modified number from “Hamilton: The Musical” and a Bollywood style “Jingle Bells,” was arranged specifically for this production.

“If you think about ‘Hamilton,’ that’s the freshest thing in musical theater,” Wilder said. “Of course, that’s not Christmas, but we had to make it Christmas.”

Wilder said she hopes adding these new elements brings new energy to the show, which has been a tradition at IU for more than half a century. Along with the new Christmas numbers, the show featured a performance from Hooshir, IU’s Jewish acapella group.

Wilder said while the name of the show is Chimes of Christmas, she wants to make sure that the production is inclusive and reaches relatable to all groups in at-

tendance.

To senior Brandon Porter, Chimes of Christmas is a timeless tradition for Singing Hoosiers, with each production having its own unique qualities, he said.

Porter, a Musical Theater Direction major, is one of two student managers for the group.

“The Singing Hoosiers have such a beautiful, storied tradition that has taken place over 67 years, and we evolve and we change every single year,” Porter said.

This is Porter’s fourth year with the group, which he said he’s been a part of since his first day of freshman year.

A big difference for him this year was more integration of younger students from Syncopation, a show choir for middle school-aged students, which is part of Bloomington Expressive Arts Training. BEAT is a community arts program founded and run by Wilder and her wife, who choreographed much of Saturday’s show.

“It was really awesome to have the kids involved with us more than they have been in the past,” Porter said.

A quality that Porter said Wilder brings to Singing Hoosiers is a level of passion he has not encountered with other people he’s worked with.

“She has a heart that’s bigger than anyone on this planet,” Porter said.

Wilder said normally the Singing Hoosiers have a fall preview on the first week of October, but this year it was

halfway through the month.

She said this made it feel like the day of Chimes, the group’s main fall semester production, had come early.

To add to the already stressful atmosphere, Wilder said a bass that was supposed to be used in the show suffered damages overnight. They found out it was not functioning an hour and a half before curtain call and had to rush to get a different one ready.

After the 2 p.m. show, Wilder said she was pleased by the energy on stage but a little surprised by how engaged the audience was so early on in the day.

“Sometimes a matinee audience can be a little bit more reserved, but we felt really privileged to hang out with this audience today,” Wilder said She said Singing Hoosiers functions like a community, and the musicians support each other like a family would. Their level of devotion to the group and to their music is something she hoped the audience saw.

Porter said the group’s drive for success ensured there was something new at every performance. The Singing Hoosier’s spring production in April will not be the same as last year’s, nor will it be the same as the one done a decade ago.

“The Singing Hoosiers work so hard and they pour their hearts out every single time that we walk on stage, and I want people to experience that,” Porter said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8

IU basketball survives week from hell and tallies four wins Exhausted, mentally drained, achy, ready for a nap.

It’s been a tough week for the press covering IU basketball this week.

The Hoosiers are probably tired as well.

In eight days, IU Coach Tom Crean and company took on four different teams. One of them was No. 3-ranked North Carolina. The other three, well, were not.

After a disappointing — to say the least — loss to Fort Wayne, IU needed to right the ship quickly, especially with a primetime matchup against the Tar Heels coming up in the middle of the week.

IU made quick work of Mississippi Valley State, pummeled North Carolina and then grinded its way to two satisfactory victories against SIU-Edwardsville and Southeast Missouri State.

Four games. 4-0.

“I think it was pretty tough,” junior guard Robert Johnson said about the schedule. “I’m proud of the way the guys fought and found energy, to be locked in to things like shoot around to film. I think it was a really big jump for our young guys.”

There’s still plenty to improve on, but in terms of getting the job done, the Hoosiers were up to snuff.

Here’s as vague a sentence you’ll find in the Indiana Daily Student. We learned a lot about IU this week, but we still have plenty of questions.

read that, but it’s true.

“Hey, Greg. What did we learn?” you ask suspiciously.

Well, that’s a fantastic question.

We know this squad is as deep as a Crean roster has been since his arrival at IU. Sophomore forward OG Anunoby’s high ankle sprain at the end of Wednesday’s North Carolina game allowed for sophomore forward Juwan Morgan and freshman forward De’Ron Davis to garner some attention.

Against SIUE and SEMO, Morgan went a combined 12for-12 from the field.

That’s 100 percent for those wondering. Some things could have gone better for the Hoosiers, but Morgan’s field goal percentage could not.

“That’s swell and all, but that’s just one thing you noticed. Give us some more,” you demand.

OK, OK. Here we go.

Sophomore Thomas Bryant, the man in the middle, may not have had the gaudy stats that he often puts up, but he was as pivotal as any player on the court.

Against SEMO, Bryant didn’t make his first bucket until the second half, yet he was still a presence.

No. 31 had 10 rebounds, four blocks, three assists and one chest bump with Crean.

He also shot 5-of-6 from the free throw line to bring his

percentage for the last four games to over 80 percent. Last season Bryant shot slightly less than 71 percent. Finishing and-ones and other trips to the line makes him somehow even scarier.

With all of that said, none of this matters without Anunoby. The high-flier went down near the end of the North Carolina game and is day-to-day while definitely making progress, Crean said.

Fortunately, if a player were going to go down, this was as good a time as any.

31 percent from the field.

It was the Hoosiers’ fourth consecutive game in which they held their opponent to less than 40 percent from the field.

What Bryant brings to this team is more than just scoring. He constantly brings the energy to his teammates by fueling them through the game.

Junior guard Robert Johnson, who led all scorers with 17 points, said Bryant’s efficiency on defense and energy are keys to their success.

“His energy is something that drives him to be good,” Johnson said. “I think day in and day out that’s something that we have to have from him, his energy, regardless if he’s scoring points or not.”

Playing four games in an eight-day stretch is no simple task, and Crean admits his group has had a very long week.

Crean said sometimes his team has too much selfinflicted pressure because the frustration kicks in, but he credits Bryant, Johnson and sophomore forward Juwan Morgan for being locked in during practice through this tough stretch.

“They have been on point, on attack and on a mission since the middle of the week, a week ago when it comes to really taking more responsibility for their teammates and setting the tone with their energy every day,” Crean said.

“It’s hard to do that every day, but he just needed a reminder that it’s OK to have some fun.” health during a busy phase today and tomorrow. Act decisively and steadily. You have the necessary resources. Do the best job you can.

SWIM & DIVE

Hoosiers continue to win on eve of winter break

By Ben Portnoy bmportno@indiana.edu @bportnoy15

Two different events yielded similar results as the Hoosier swimmers were back in action at both the AT&T Winter National Championships in Atlanta and the Miami Invitational in Oxford, Ohio, this weekend.

IU came away with three event wins and four school records at nationals and five event wins in Oxford, Ohio.

“Overall, for the most part, it was what we wanted to do,” IU head swimming coach Ray Looze said. “It wasn’t perfect, but it was, you know, it’s definitely moving in the right direction.”

Senior Marwan Elkamash, junior Ali Rockett and sophomore Vini Lanza led the group at nationals.

Elkamash, a transfer from South Carolina, was spectacular for the Hoosiers and won both the 500

and 1,650-yard freestyle and broke both school records and pool records in the process.

“To have a transfer like him have such an immediate impact is really, really good,” Looze said. “He’s really happy. He’s thriving, getting better with every meet. Every week he improves. Marwan’s just been a wonderful addition to the team, and he’s fit right in.”

Lanza set school records in the 100 and 200-yard butterfly and had an NCAA A cut-qualifying time of 45.56 in the 100.

Glover was fourth in the 100-yard backstroke, third in the 200-yard backstroke and was on the first-place team in the 400-yard medley relay.

On the women’s side, Rockett continued to cement herself as a strong performer after struggling her first two years on campus.

She finished third in 100yard backstroke and joined senior Gia Dalesandro, and

juniors Holly Spears and Delaney Barnard for a fifthplace finish in the 200-yard freestyle relay.

“It just continues to show me that obviously that my hard work is paying off,” Rockett said. “Switching groups is really working for me, and it’s just building my confidence more and more each time I can go a best time or score more points for the team and contribute on different relays.”

For the swimmers who competed at Oxford, the meet offered an opportunity

for some of those lower on the depth chart to step up and put themselves in contention for roster spots for the Big Ten Championships this spring.

Strong performers included freshman Brian Valedon, sophomore Joey

Snodderly and freshman Shelby Koontz.

This weekend also marked the end of competition for most of the Hoosier swimmers this fall. They will have finals and a week off before a training trip to Bermuda prior to the start of

the spring season.

“It’s going to be so fun just to get out of Bloomington for a little, be able to train outside will be nice,” Rockett said. “But also it will give us a good opportunity to be able to bond as a team,” Rockett said.

WRESTLING

IU sweeps road double dual to move to 4-1 on season

By Ryan Schuld ryan.schuld@yahoo.com @RSCHULD

Despite winning just half of the matches on the night, the Hoosiers found a way to win thanks to bonus-point victories and tiebreaker criteria.

No. 29 IU traveled to Southern Illinois–Edwardsville to compete in its second double dual meet of the season. After a pair of close matches, the wrestlers are bringing home two more wins to improve their dual meet record to 4-1 on the season.

In the first match, against No. 27 North Dakota State, IU found itself in an early 6-0 hole but went on to win five of

the last eight matches to bring the score to 17-17.

No. 6 Nate Jackson, 184 pounds, won his match by major decision to give the team four points instead of three. Without that major decision win, the Hoosiers would have lost a close match, 17-16.

Instead, the major decision bonus point forced the match to be decided by tiebreaker criteria.

The tiebreaker criteria gave the Hoosiers an 18-17 win after having eight more total points than North Dakota.

“We’ve been emphasizing scoring points,” IU Coach Duane Goldman said. “We’ve been talking about putting points on the board and stay-

ing aggressive. It made the difference in the match.”

After the victory to open the night, the Hoosiers went on to face the hosts, SIUE. Jackson did his part once again by pinning Jake Godinez to give IU a 15-3 lead through four matches.

Despite the early advantage, SIUE fought back and had a 16-15 lead with two matches left.

Cole Weaver, 141 pounds, regained the Hoosiers’ lead with a final minute reversal to win by decision, 7-4.

One match was left, and IU led by two. The final match was a winner-take-all situation.

Chris Perez, 149 pounds, went on to win 4-0 thanks to a takedown, escape point and

riding time point. His victory notched the team win for IU by a score of 21-16 but also provided Perez with his first victory of the season.

“We’re happy to get him in there,” Goldman said. “He hasn’t been on the mat in a long time with the injuries he has sustained. He had a tough loss against North Dakota State, and to come back and win the dual against Southern Illinois was really good for him.”

After a successful road trip, the Hoosiers will now prepare for their first home match of the season. IU will open its Big Ten season against Wisconsin at 7:00 p.m. Friday, Dec. 9, in the University Gym. “The Big Ten matches are

always exciting, and Wisconsin is a great team,” Goldman said. “Each individual guy in our lineup has shown glimpses of really doing some great

things. We just haven’t had the consistency. Hopefully in the Wisconsin match we can put it all together and compete well.”
