Abortion ban poses questions for future OB-GYNs

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICES

Starting Sept. 15, Indiana’s Senate Bill 1 will ban abortion in most cases. Now, students working to become the next generation of OB-GYNs are facing complicated choices about their futures.

Morgan Guthrie was still asleep on June 24 when the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was announced. She woke to a text from her mother: “Don’t look at the news.”

Guthrie, a sophomore, is one of many pre-med students returning to IU’s campus after the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision and the

passage of Indiana’s Senate Bill 1, which banned abortion starting Sept. 15 except in cases of rape, incest or risks posed to the life of the pregnant person, according to NPR. Now, students working to become the next generation of OB-GYNs are facing complicated choices about their futures.

“It’s really scary,” Guthrie said. “It just makes you wonder what’s going to happen next.”

Guthrie said she wasn’t

surprised when she heard that Roe v. Wade had been overturned, but she said the decision rattled people she knew. She said many of the pre-med students she knows are still set on becoming OB-GYNs, but they’re scared to consider practicing in Indiana in the future.

“If you’re young like me, and you can go anywhere to practice, you probably won’t want to go to a red state, where your license can be

taken away or you can’t provide the best care for your patients,” Guthrie said. “You work so hard for this moment to become a doctor, so much work and money and effort, and you’re not going to want to put that at risk.”

Guthrie and her friends aren’t alone. According to a recent NPR article, many young OB-GYNs are considering leaving Indiana, likely leaving some women without access to care.

The article places some

of the blame on the media attention surrounding Dr. Caitlin Bernard, an Indiana doctor and abortion provider who provided an abortion to a 10-year old girl from Ohio before the Indiana ban. She was heavily criticized by conservative media outlets and Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita.

Ada Port, a senior studying molecular life science on the pre-med track at IU, said she was heartbroken to hear about Bernard and the young girl’s situation. People want to blame abortions on poor decisions, Port said, but abortions are necessary for many reasons.

Port said she doesn’t know exactly how the Roe decision will affect her future, but she can see it affecting where she lives.

More than that, though, she said it’ll affect her future patients.

“I think a lot of doctors in the gynecology field will not want to be in states where there are abortion bans,” Port said. “I think that’ll limit those states’ access to good women’s healthcare when it already is so hard to find.”

Port was diagnosed with endometriosis while she was at IU and, while a painful process, it’s what solidified her interest in the profession. But the condition is linked to pregnancy risks and could require termination, which may become illegal under Indiana law as of Sept. 15.

A majority of Indiana legislators support the ban, passing the House 62-38 and the Senate 28-19, and the Indiana public has shown support across social media.

L.W., a sophomore on the pre-med track, plans on becoming an OB-GYN and opening her own practice, she said. L.W. has asked not to be named in the story for privacy reasons.

She said she doesn’t want to practice anywhere with strict abortion laws, including her home state of Missouri and “most likely” Indiana.

It’s important for doctors to make the women they’re treating comfortable, L.W. said. For her, the Indiana ban added more stress to her life. She has long-term career goals, she said, and having a child would knock her off that path.

She said her mom regaled her with tips on how to stay safe after the SB1 vote, but she feels IU hasn’t done anything. None of her professors, except for an ethics debate class, have even mentioned the change.

Students, though, have spoken out, shared resources and protested, she said.

“That definitely makes me feel more comfortable on campus, that more people feel the same way that I do,” L.W. said. “IU as an institution I don’t think has done a whole bunch, but I do think the students are working hard.”

Opera 'Don Giovanni' to open on Sept. 16 at the MAC

By Gino Diminich

gdiminic@iu.edu | @GinoDiminchII

The ever-iconic purple curtain of the Musical Arts Center rises, contrasting behind it the dark, grey and grimy set representing 1950s New York City. As smoke drifts across the stage, the atmosphere is ominous — the perfect setting for a story like “Don Giovanni” to unfold.

Jacobs School of Music will present this opera with two different casts from Sept.

16-17 and 23-24 at the Musical Arts Center.

“Don Giovanni” tells the story of the titular wealthy nightclub owner who seeks nothing but the means to his own pleasure. Over the course of two days, he sinks deeper and deeper into the conse-

quences of his actions, ultimately leading to his doom.

This dark opera is told in two acts, with music by Amadeus Mozart and an Italian libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte. The score by Mozart remains as iconic as the rest of his work, but also remains a challenge to sing due to its complex composition. Yuntong Han, an IU grad student playing Don Ottavio in one cast, took the challenge as a test rather than a burden.

“It makes me want to try, to see where I am,” Han said.

“While also enjoying the beautiful melody of the show.”

The vocal challenge lies in the layout of the notes, as the complex structure woven

by Mozart varies in pitch and tempo. It is constantly changing to reflect the frenzied

emotions of the characters in the show.

“It’s not the high notes but it’s the tessitura,” Han said.

“The way he wrote the opera is difficult for everyone, there are notes between the high register and the middle register that need to be sung.”

David Drettwan, a firstyear IU graduate student, plays the titular character in one cast. Despite the twisted nature of Giovanni, he found the role intriguing from an acting standpoint.

“He is an exercise in motivation because ‘what does he want’ and ‘how does he get it’,” Drettwan said. “There’s this manipulation aspect to him where he’ll say whatever you want to hear to get what he wants.”

Indiana wakes up in second half, squeaks past Idaho

After a quiet first half on the offensive side, Indiana football defeated the University of Idaho 35-22 on Saturday night at home to improve to 2-0 on the season.

In last week’s win against Illinois, Indiana was just able to muster 32 rushing yards.

This week, with a nonstop downpour of rain, it was evi-

dent prior to the game's start that Indiana would need to run the ball to win. The Hoosiers would go on to finish with 239 total rushing yards against the Vandals.

The start of the game looked encouraging for the Hoosiers. Their defense forced back-to-back Idaho three and outs and found themselves with great starting field position after back-to-back Idaho punts fell short of the 50-yard

line.

However, a missed field goal followed by a turnover on downs from Idaho’s 1-yard line meant the Hoosiers would come up blank on consecutive red zone trips.

MEN'S BASKETBALL

IU announces 2022-2023 full schedule

By Emma Pawlitz

epawlitz@iu.edu | @emmapawlitz

The Big Ten Conference announced the 2022-2023 men’s basketball slate on Thursday, and Indiana athletics released the team’s full schedule shortly after.

The Hoosiers’ nonconference schedule, which had already been posted prior to the Big Ten matchups, is considered one of the most challenging in all of college basketball by analysts and fans. With opponents like reigning national champion University of Kansas, runner-up University of North Carolina and a Sweet 16-qualifying University of Arizona program within a sub-threeweek span, Indiana will have plenty of challenges in preparation for conference play.

Still, the second half of the season for head coach Mike Woodson and the Hoosiers won’t be much easier. Indiana will face Rutgers in Piscataway, New Jersey, and Nebraska at home in between the North Carolina and Arizona contests at the beginning of December.

One of Indiana’s biggest

tests will come on Jan. 19 against Illinois in Champaign, Illinois. The Hoosiers and Illini sit at the top of many analysts’ Big Ten preseason rankings, and a true road game at State Farm Arena will provide an electric environment.

The final five games of the regular season are arguably one of the most difficult stretches of play. Indiana will face Illinois, Michigan State, Purdue, Iowa and Michigan, with away games against the Spartans and Boilermakers. The results of the Hoosiers’ homestretch could make or break their national ranking heading into the Big Ten and NCAA Tournaments.

With a slew of returning talent and momentum from the 2021-2022 season, Indiana is hopeful for its best season in recent years.

Both the nonconference and Big Ten schedules are far from a walk in the park for the Hoosiers, but if they can outplay some of the country’s best teams in big games, Indiana just might find itself near the top of the conference and the country for the majority of the 2022-2023 season.

The ‘Red Zone’:

First-year students especially at risk for sexual violence

By Christina Avery

averycm@iu.edu | @christym_avery

Editor’s Note: This story includes mention of sexual violence.

With students back on campus also comes parties, late nights and unfamiliar people.

As students work to find their bearings on campus and adjust to college life in the first few months, sexual assaults spike — leaving firstyear students particularly vulnerable.

This is what’s called the “Red Zone,” a period of time each fall regarded as the most dangerous for sexual assaults on campus.

Here is more information about what the Red Zone is, why it happens and what students need to know to protect themselves and others: What is the “Red Zone?”

The Red Zone is widely known as the period from the beginning of the fall semester to Thanksgiving break.

During this time, sexual assaults cases have spiked on college campuses across the U.S. The Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network reports that more than 50% of college sexual assaults occur in August, September, October or November, and that students are at an increased risk during the first few months of their first year of college.

The phenomenon of the Red Zone has been studied since at least 2007, when the Department of Justice’s Campus Sexual Assault Survey found that 84% of women survivors reported being sexually assaulted during their first four semesters on campus. The Red Zone has since been studied and reported on by several institutions and outlets, such as the Center for Women and Families and multiple universities like the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and Brown University.

Why does the Red Zone occur?

One reason students are more at-risk during their freshman year is because of the risks that come with independence, said Sally Thomas, director for sexual violence prevention and student advocacy at the Office of Sexual Violence Prevention and Student Advocacy.

“This is the first time that many first-year students have been away from home and not familiar with their surroundings, not familiar with how to get back to campus, what resources are available,” she said.

Thomas said there are often more parties at places like dorms and fraternity houses during the beginning of the school year. She emphasized that, even if someone is drinking, sexual assault is never their fault.

Alcohol is a factor, she said, because perpetrators often take advantage of those who have been drinking.

“We know that there are many perpetrators who use alcohol as a way to make someone compliant to facilitate sexual misconduct,” Thomas said.

Maddie Butler, Title IX coordinator for IU Student Government, said one reason first-year students are at a higher risk for sexual violence is because they don’t yet have established support networks. People who look to enact sexual violence know this, she said, and look for people who don’t seem to be surrounded by support networks.

Many first-year students

haven’t yet been exposed to thorough bystander intervention training, Butler said, which can make them less equipped to help and support their friends. According to IU’s 2019 Community Attitudes and Experiences with Sexual Assault and Misconduct Survey, 56% of undergraduate women and 63% of undergraduate men said they had received bystander intervention education before coming to IU. Bell Pastore, IUSG’s student body vice president, said the most important part of helping incoming freshmen to be aware is getting the messaging out.

“A lot of students come here and they may have never been exposed to this type of language or these topics before,” she said. “Which isn’t uncommon, but it just means that we have to work twice as hard to make sure that people are being cognizant of who they’re around and making sure that what they’re saying is not insensitive.”

While parties, especially fraternity parties, are known for being hotspots for sexual violence, Pastore said she believes that seeing a collaborative effort to fight sexual

violence will bring out the best solution.

“In reality, it’s an issue that we all face together,” Pastore said.

How can I report an incident and what resources are available?

Butler said one of the strongest ways students can feel supported is when they feel like they know what their options for reporting are.

“During the Red Zone, that really gets taken away because when students are new to campus they haven’t been exposed to those options yet,” she said.

IU’s website lists resources for reporting, such as contact information for the Office of Student Conduct and campus authorities.

Thomas said she is on call at OSVPVA 24 hours, seven days a week. Students can choose to file a report and pursue an investigation, or to only file a report. IU will only move forward with an investigation if a student doesn’t pursue one in rare cases where there is a larger threat to campus safety.

“If they do move forward without the student — the survivor — requesting it, the survivor is told and kept up-

Indiana to tax student loan forgiveness

dated,” Thomas said. “That helps a lot of the survivors we work with.”

OSVPVA focuses on being transparent, so students know what they are going into when they report as much as possible, Thomas said.

“We’re not going to sugarcoat. We’re not going to encourage or force someone to report. We’re going to lay out all the facts,” she said.

Thomas said Confidential Victim Advocates can assist students with tasks like preparing statements and getting extensions and excused absences, and they can give students updates on investigations and meet with them to talk through their feelings.

Thomas said she wants survivors to know it is always okay to speak up when they feel uncomfortable or when someone else is making them uncomfortable.

“I think we need to do a lot more to empower people to feel comfortable saying, ‘You’re creeping me out, please stop,’” she said.

Butler said the process of reporting an assault can be inherently retraumatizing because survivors often have to relive the experience.

President Joe Biden announced in August 2022 that the U.S. government will forgive federal loan debt of up to $10,000 for individuals making less than $125,000 a year.

However, the Indiana Department of Revenue has confirmed they will be taxing student loan debt into a taxpayer’s income to pay state and local income taxes.

Indiana is one out of seven states that is on track to tax the debt discharged under Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan at the state and local level. If the forgiveness plan goes accordingly to Biden’s plan, Indiana residents will see this added tax

in next year’s tax bill.

There are specific exceptions for some types of student loan debt forgiveness, including any loan forgiveness resulting from death or total and permanent disability. These exceptions cannot be taxed.

Indiana’s tax rate is 3.23%, meaning Indiana residents will pay $323 in state income tax for each $10,000 of student loan forgiveness. This does not include county level taxes which will be added on top of that.

The Monroe County tax rate is 1.35%, which adds $135 for each $10,000 of student loan forgiveness.

Last year, Congress passed the American Rescue Plan Act which included a

provision that would exempt student loan debt removed from 2021-2025 from being taxed. This helped set up the framework for Biden authorizing tax-free student loan forgiveness.

Regardless of the act, states can incorporate parts of the federal tax code into their own taxation system to a certain extent. This means they can automatically adopt changes as they are made at the federal level.

States like Indiana follow a static basis which means they mostly follow the Internal Revenue Code but only as it reads on a fixed date, with the date being routinely updated.

There are also some states that follow a version of the

code before the American Rescue Plan Act, which allows student loan forgiveness to be taxed. Those states do have the ability to change and add the exclusions separately or decide to follow the updated version to make the loan forgiveness tax free. Even though Indiana has followed a post-American Rescue Plan Act version of the code, they have chosen to separate from the act on this issue.

The current state budget, which was passed last year, broke from the federal definition of adjusted gross income on several issues for tax purposes. This paved the way for the American Rescue Plan Act’s student loan forgiveness provision being exempt from the state code.

City proposes increase in monthly trash fees

By Christina Avery

The Indiana State House sits in downtown Indianapolis. Indiana is one of seven states that will tax the federal student loan debt forgiven under President Biden’s plan at the state and local level.

a Title IX training which they hope to finish by the end of the year. The training will provide information to those thinking about reporting incidents of sexual violence.

IUSG will also be holding a Red Zone forum 6 p.m.

Sept. 28 in Whittenberger Auditorium, aimed at helping students know their options for reporting and how to support others. The forum will include a panel with members from the OSVPVA, student representatives and faculty experts on genderbased violence.

Butler said she wants students to know they are justified in any course of action they choose to take in terms of dealing with the aftermath of and healing from sexual violence. She said students should inform themselves about what they can do to support their friends.

“Just build a community that, in terms of the language we use, in terms of the support we provide, is condemning sexual violence and is supporting our friends who are opening up about their experiences.”

The City of Bloomington is proposing an increase in monthly trash fees for 2023.

The proposed change comes as part of Mayor John Hamilton’s 2023 budget proposal. The change would eliminate the city’s general fund subsidy for sanitation services over the next three years.

The Department of Public Works is predicting fees for the smallest bins could increase from $6.51 per month to $9.75, according to Indiana Public Media.

For middle-sized bins, payments could increase from $11.61 to $18.25, and large bin fees could increase from $18.52 to $31.50.

Although all taxpayers

pay into the city’s general fund, trash collection is only offered to single-family homes and homes with four units or less.

The fee increase will need to be approved by the city council Oct. 12, 2022.

JARED’S JOURNAL

In America, racism is even found in the drinking water Jared Quigg (he/him) is a junior studying journalism and political science.

The city of Jackson, Mississippi, is in crisis. Since late July, the city has been under a boil-water notice due to water system failures and massive flooding. Earlier this month, over 150,000 Jackson residents did not have any access to water.

Now, residents once again have water, but it’s still been deemed unsafe to drink, and government officials have said the crisis is far from over.

The population of Jackson is nearly 83% Black. Following school desegregation in the 1970s, many white residents of Jackson moved into neighboring cities in a phenomenon known as “white flight.” Wealthier Black residents followed them in recent decades. This resulted in less tax money for the city to repair its crumbling infrastructure, some of which is a century old.

The crisis in Jackson is just the latest in America’s long history of racism and inequality. In Jackson, residents wait in long lines to receive bottled water. In neighboring Ridgeland, with its white majority population, there is no crisis at all.

And while the crisis in Jackson is currently the worst of such crises in America, it is far from the only one. From Baltimore to Honolulu, thousands of Americans don’t have access to clean drinking water, the majority of them being poor people of color.

My argument is simple.

Many Black Americans have been impoverished due to centuries of slavery and oppression, from which no reparations were ever given.

ILLUSTRATION BY JULIETTE ALBERT

Today, Black Americans struggle to escape poverty and as a consequence their cities fall into disrepair due to a lack of resources.

What I’m describing is racism. It is not racism as it is usually thought of, not personal prejudice, but racism nonetheless.

For how can it be anything else? It was racism that thrust millions of people into poverty. It was racism that drove white people out of the cities and into the suburbs. The cities find themselves drained of resources due to racism. Lack of resources prevents the cities from repairing their old

infrastructure. The old infrastructure cannot withstand heavy flooding. The result is crisis.

But good luck trying to get conservatives to admit this. Mississippi’s Republican officials flail about trying to pin the crisis on Democratic mismanagement. Additionally, officials from both parties have even suggested privatizing Jackson’s water system, as if the simple fact of turning over the water system to capitalists will magically resolve everything.

Privatization is the last thing the city of Jackson needs. For one thing, pri-

vate water services cost the typical household 59% more money than public services, according to Food and Water Watch. In Jackson, a quarter of the population already live in poverty – an increase in their water bills would only make things worse.

Enriching shareholders with no democratic accountability is a terrible solution to the crisis in Jackson. What is needed is a massive redistribution of wealth and resources to those who continue to be marginalized due to historical oppression.

“No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part

of the members are poor and miserable,” philosopher Adam Smith wrote. “It is but equity, besides, that they who feed, clothe, and lodge the whole body of the people, should have such a share of the produce of their own labor, as to be themselves tolerably well fed, clothed, and lodged.”

America has benefitted enormously from the exploitation of the working class, and in particular Black Americans who, for much of American history, were compensated nothing for their labor. It is they who suffer through such crises as that in Jackson. The rich and

poor do not suffer equally.

For racism to be adequately addressed, it is necessary to address the economic inequalities it has caused. To paraphrase Malcolm X, it is not progress to remove a knife from someone’s back. Ending legal segregation was never going to be enough. Progress is healing the wound – it is, as Smith said, giving the people their share of the produce of their labor.

The debt America owes to its Black citizens must be paid, for it is very long overdue. jaquigg@iu.edu

JAWING WITH JOHN

Students, this is not the time to give up on being an IU sports fan John Hultquist (he/him) is a senior studying community health.

My sister attends the University of Notre Dame.

Until the very end of the football season last year and into the beginning of this season, she told me how the student body continued to support the football team. There is never a dull moment on game day.

My support for the Hoosiers rests on the expectation that they could win.

But the team’s continued losses in fall of 2021 weren’t assisting my fight against

my sister’s claim that IU has no spirit within the student body. As Memorial Stadium games continued on cold weekend days, attendance dropped weekend after weekend, or at least that’s how it appeared as a student section attendee.

Many athletes were recruited by athletic professionals to play for such a large competitive school, increasing revenue and ensuring competitive weekly games. There are many reasons we should attend these games on a weekly basis.

Last season, my parents took a trip down to Bloom-

ington for the IU versus Rutgers game Nov. 13, and the 38-3 loss was brutal in the November cold. While my parents are always happy to make the familiar trek from Chicago down I-65, the attendance rates shocked them. Memorial Stadium remained full of open seats in all sections.

The sound of cheers was nearly nonexistent.

The saddest moment of the game was when IU fans cheered louder for the shirtless students in the nosebleeds than they did for the athletes on the field.

Students become lazier

as the weather gets colder.

It’s harder to find motivation to attend games when the losing streaks increase game-by-game. The Big Ten Network, and other providers, broadcast IU football games right into the confines of the student bodies’ accommodations.

This became easier due to widespread internet access and the latest technology trends.

Attending football games stays an integral part of the IU Hoosier experience. We are lucky to have a huge stadium and the opportunity to buy low-cost tickets.

If someone is not a season football ticket holder, there are many GroupMe chats and IU Classified posts that allow one to find discounted resale tickets.

If many students attend games, this will provide a way for students to meet new people. Introduce yourself to the person on the right and left of the group of people you came in with.

Many students can recall a time when they were recognized for an accomplishment or achievement. Take time to consider student athletes work hard for simi-

lar recognition in weekly competitions. Why should their demanding work be ignored?

Give your fellow Hoosiers the recognition they deserve. They work hard daily to represent the university. Think about when we play Purdue on Nov. 26.

Our community bragging rights against Purdue depend on how our athletes and peers perform.

Show the players we believe they will win by showing up to the game in support. jrhultqu@iu.edu

Serena Williams plays her final match before retirement

By Jay Upshaw

jnupshaw@iu.edu

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Serena Williams hits a return to Ajla Tomljanovic during their U.S. Open third-round match Sept. 2, 2022 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York.

On Sept. 2, Serena Williams played her last match in the U.S. Open in Flushing, New York.

After a three-hour-long match, she was eliminated

by Ajla Tomljanovic in the third round at Arthur Ashe Stadium. At the end of the match, Williams expressed gratitude for the accomplishments she has made so far to various news networks.

Williams was born in Saginaw, Michigan, in 1981.

In 1996, she debuted at her first tennis tournament at just 14 years old. She claimed her first singles title in 1999 at the U.S. Open, and she eventually ended up winning 23 Grand Slam singles titles and 14 Grand Slam doubles titles. She was also able to compete in the Olympics and win four gold medals. In her entire career, she earned $94.5 million in prize money.

“It’s been the most incredible ride and journey I’ve ever been on in my life,” Williams said to an oncourt reporter. “I’m just so grateful because you got me

here.”

Williams’ retirement was initially announced in Vogue on Aug. 9. After 27 years of playing professional tennis, she expressed interest in pursuing other ventures. Williams expressed conflicted feelings when it came to walking away, saying she doesn’t like to use the word “retirement” and calling it “the hardest thing that (she) could ever imagine.”

News of Williams’ retirement inspired many other celebrities to examine her impact on tennis and this new era of sport.

“Congratulations, Serena, for your heart, skill, intelligence, dedication, and grace,” Barack Obama, the former president of the U.S., said on Twitter. “Few athletes have inspired more people both in and beyond their sport!”

“You’re a GOAT,” LeBron James, an All-Star NBA player, said on Twitter.

“What you’ve done for the sport of tennis, what you’ve done for women and what you’ve done for the category of sport, period, is unprecedented.”

“I think I’m a product

of what she’s done,” fourtime Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka said on Twitter. “I wouldn’t be here without Serena, Venus, and her whole family.”

IU students also responded to the retirement announcement.

“She’s done so much,” IU sophomore Mackenzie Lee said. “She’s a very accomplished athlete, so why not quit while you’re ahead?”

IU sophomore Tyler Niedermeyer said it was cool to watch her play and she was the greatest to ever do it.

“That’s pretty weird because she’s like the face of tennis, for me anyway,” IU junior Corbin Hughes said.

“She’s like one of the only tennis players I know.”

Upon retirement, Williams is still one win short of taking Margaret Court’s record of having the most Grand Slams title wins — 24 to be exact. However, Williams has expressed contentment in her own accomplishments and looks back on her matches fondly.

“I feel like I’ve already won, figuratively, mentally,” Williams said to the New York Times.

In her big aria, ‘Non mi dir’ I think you see her hope for a better future for herself.”

While this production has been “modernized,” — now taking place in the ‘50s with Giovanni as a nightclub owner as opposed to a nobleman — the production is in no way negatively impacted by this change.

Hunt, who has done updated versions of “Don Giovanni” in the past, supported the modernization of the show, citing its timeless themes as a primary reason.

“We’re still so drawn to this because these characters are so human,” Hunt said. “Parts of them exist in us now. I think we can all think of Don Giovanni’s in our lives so it’s not tied to a time period in the same way other stories might be.”

man wide receiver Jordan Dwyer, giving the Vandals a 7-0 lead.

When the rain stopped in the second quarter, the Hoosiers' offense didn’t bother to start in its place. The Hoosiers responded to the Vandals' touchdown with a fumble from senior running back Josh Henderson on the following drive.

The lone bright spot in the first half for the Hoosiers was freshman Dasan McCullough notching a pair of sacks. McCullough would finish with five total tackles. Postgame, head coach Tom Allen credited McCullough’s attention to detail and seriousness throughout preparation.

With Idaho leading by a touchdown late in the second quarter, Indiana’s defense stood strong and held Idaho to a field goal after allowing the Vandals within ten yards of the endzone.

On the subsequent Indiana drive, redshirt junior quarterback Connor Bazelak overthrew junior wide receiver Cam Camper and instead found Idaho sophomore

The Hoosiers went into the locker room trailing 10-0, totaling just 110 yards of total offense and going 1-7 on 3rd down conversions.

"I don’t want to blame the weather but the ball was pretty slick,” Bazelak said about the offense’s first-half struggles.

It was a first half to forget for the Hoosiers, and it quickly was forgotten.

After Indiana’s defense forced a three and out on Idaho’s first second half drive, Indiana’s offense’s first play from scrimmage was a bolt of energy as Indiana senior running back Shaun Shivers found 31 yards of space downfield into enemy territory.

Unlike the first half, the drive wouldn’t stall out from there as back-to-back connections from Bazelak to graduate senior wide receiver DJ Matthews Jr. propelled the Hoosiers inside the Vandal’s five-yard line.

In wildcat formation, wide receiver sophomore Donaven McCulley lined up in the

backfield and ran right down the middle, stretching across the goal line into the endzone to put the Hoosiers on the scoreboard.

On the next drive, in Idaho’s attempt to respond, a bad snap sailed into the endzone and was quickly jumped on by McCoy, but the Idaho quarterback was unable to avoid the safety. The defensive score brought Indiana within one point, trailing 10-9.

Starting with the touchdown and safety to start the second half, the Hoosiers scored 29 unanswered points in the first 16 minutes of the second half. Despite giving up a couple more touchdowns in the fourth quarter including a 71-yard Idaho pass from McCoy to redshirt sophomore Michael Graves, Indiana stayed in control by tacking on another touchdown from senior running back Shaun Shivers and eventually winning 35-22.

After ending the first half with 110 total yards, Indiana finished with 436 yards of offense. Bazelak finished for 197 passing yards, going 16-

29 along with a pair of touchdowns and one interception.

Getting into a rhythm in the second half played a big factor for the offense’s turnaround in the second half, Bazelak said.

Shivers was also a main contributor for the Hoosiers' offense. After just 28 yards on 15 carries a week ago, he exploded for 155 yards on 20 attempts and a touchdown on Saturday.

Despite the Hoosier’s double-digit win, Allen was frustrated with his team’s performance.

“That’s not acceptable in my mind,” Allen said. “As far as the standard with which we have to play, there are too many mistakes.”

Allen acknowledged the difference between halves after the game.

“We just can't wait until halftime to start playing football,” Allen said.

With the win, Indiana improves to 2-0 on the season. Its next contest is against Western Kentucky University at noon next Saturday, Sept. 17, in Bloomington.

FOOTBALL

Indiana defeats the University of Idaho 35-22 COLUMN: Indiana waited 30 minutes before playing good football

By Will Foley

wtfoley@iu.edu | @foles24

Trailing 10-0 at halftime to Football Championship Subdivision opponent University of Idaho amid a downpour of rain, the Indiana football program was practically dead. After pumping hope into the fan base with a season-opening win, Indiana looked destined to follow it up with the most embarrassing loss of the weekend.

Then, the sky cleared up as the second half started.

In unison with the weather, the Hoosiers started to play good football. They put up 239 yards and 23 points in the third quarter alone, cruising in the second half to a 35-22 victory.

So, what exactly happened in those first 30 minutes of game time?

Great question. Who’s to say?

Indiana looked far from a Big Ten team, let alone a Football Bowl Subdivision team. The first-half Hoosiers had just 110 yards of offense, two turnovers, a missed field goal and several wasted opportunities from good field position.

They simply looked outmatched by the Vandals.

In the second half, the Hoosiers looked like a completely different team. The defense constantly forced three-and-outs, the offense clicked on all cylinders and everything was put together for a good half of football, for the most part.

Junior quarterback Connor Bazelak was one of many Hoosiers with a tale of

two halves. When he started the game six for 17 with 49 yards and an interception, it became questionable if he would start the second half.

Bazelak silenced those doubts by going 10 of 12 for 148 yards and two touchdowns after halftime.

Indiana’s run game also finally made an appearance in the second half after being absent for the first game and a half. The Hoosiers ran for 178 yards in the second half and totaled 239 yards overall. Senior running back Shaun Shivers led the way rushing with 155 yards on 20 attempts and a score.

Indiana’s defense once again had its ups and downs. The 330 yards allowed on the game are a bit higher than one would wish, however, the Hoosiers displayed their full potential in the third quarter by allowing just 10 yards on 14 plays.

Many of Indiana’s week one concerns reappeared in the first half, which is not reassuring. The offensive line struggled to give Bazelak time, the defense missed several tackles again and the run game took a half to make any impact.

Judging all these things, what exactly can be taken away from the game? Well, probably nothing. Indiana started poorly then beat up a team it was supposed to beat up, and that’s about it.

For both the fans and the team, this game is one to forget. The expected outcome ultimately came true and that is all that should be said about it. If anyone asks, blame it on the weather.

Indiana finds its legs in the rushing game to win

By Garrett Newman

ganewman@iu.edu | @GarrettNewman20

Following week one where the Indiana rushing attack struggled to find its footing, the Hoosiers were able to hit their stride Saturday night against the University of Idaho. After a slow first half of offense, they scored 35 points in the second half to defeat the Vandals. Leading the attack was senior running back Shaun Shivers.

Shivers ended the game with 20 carries for 155 yards and a score. A former player at Auburn University, Shivers decided to transfer away in hopes of receiving a more prominent role in 2022. He has found that with Indiana,

as he is the primary back in the offense.

His running mate is fellow transfer and senior Josh Henderson, from the University of North Carolina.

Henderson helped tote the rock with an additional seven carries for 58 yards and a touchdown.

Redshirt junior quarterback Connor Bazelak touched on the importance of a good running game post-game.

“It’s awesome. It takes pressure off of me obviously, in the passing game,” Bazelak said. “The O-line did a great job tonight and Shaun, Josh, Trent and Jaylin all did a great job in the backfield.”

Shivers had a couple big runs to help propel the Hoo-

siers’ offense throughout the game. As the lead back, he provided consistent positive yardage when the team needed it most.

Head coach Tom Allen detailed exactly what makes Shivers stand out.

“I think it’s consistency, ever since he came here he has brought juice to the weight room and energy to practice,” Allen said. “He really has a different mindset, that’s infectious. That’s what I love about him. He is tough as nails, you saw the hit he took last week, and he just came back and played.”

Following a game against Illinois where Indiana struggled to have any consistency moving the ball on the ground and finishing the

game with 32 total rushing yards, the Hoosiers’ weekly preparation put an emphasis on changing that.

“We made it a priority and knew we had to,” Allen said. “We rushed for 239 yards total, which is really what you want to be able to do. Really proud of our offensive line, proud of our running backs and proud of the offense for doing that because that’s a big deal for us.”

Only time will tell if the Hoosier offense can continue to run the ball effectively, but Allen said it will continue to be an emphasis as the season continues.

“Running the football needs to be what we do effectively.”

MEN’S SOCCER

Indiana upsets No. 9 Akron, concludes homestand with 2 wins

By Matt Press

mtpress@iu.edu | @MatthewPress23

It was a different atmosphere in Bill Armstrong Stadium on Friday night.

Perhaps it was the presence of Indiana men’s soccer’s 2012 national championship squad who were honored prior to the match, or maybe it was the mass of Hoosier supporters whose raucous cheers filled the air for 90 minutes. Regardless of the surrounding circumstances, Indiana played its most complete match of the season en route to a 2-0 upset of No. 9 University of Akron.

Despite defeating St. John’s University 1-0 on Tuesday, Indiana nearly had its first win of the season spoiled due to a deep back line and a lack of urgency on the attack. On Friday, however, the team threatened Akron’s back line for the entire match with intense pressure from speedy attackers like sophomore forward Sam Sarver.

The Zips’ notoriously potent offense started the match as advertised. However, instead of settling deeper and letting the Zips pepper junior goalkeeper JT Harms with shots in goal, the Hoosiers pushed their trio of center backs higher to stop the

attack before it neared the 18-yard box.

Post-match, head coach Todd Yeagley praised his defenders for their efforts.

“Our team defending won this game first and foremost,” Yeagley said. “The way we turned them over in key spots generated a lot of our attacks, and I’m just really pleased.”

The Hoosiers struck first in the seventh minute on Friday night courtesy of a header from Sarver into the bottom corner. Stringing together passes and building from the back led to senior forward Herbert Endeley bursting down the wing and ultimately sending a cross into the box for the assist.

Yeagley spoke about Sarver’s relentless pressure and penchant for giving the Hoosiers early leads. “(Sarver) works, and he’s always probing both defensively and offensively,” Yeagley said. “He’s got so much emotion in his game and that helps you start. He’s like going zero to 60 in a second.”

Midway through the first half, Indiana had tallied six shots compared to just one from Akron. With aggression and discipline from the back line springing constant threatening chances for Indiana, Akron was forced onto

its heels and had to rely on long balls or clearances to establish any attack.

In the 39th minute, the Hoosiers again found themselves attacking the Zips’ back line. Senior forward Karsen Henderlong eased his way down the side of the 18-yard box and centered a perfect ball to junior forward Nate Ward, who slid in for the shot to put the Hoosiers up by two.

After the match, Ward expressed the excitement he felt when he scored his first goal of the season and ultimately defeated Akron.

“I was just fired up,” Ward said. “It was a hell of a ball from (Henderlong), so it just felt good. It took us a little while to get rolling this season, but we knew we had it in us and we just wanted to take the game to them.”

As the match progressed into the second half, desperation from the Zips set in. With two yellow cards within the span of 30 seconds, it was evident the Zips would increase their levels of physicality to chase the two-goal deficit.

Additionally, the Hoosiers sustained injuries to key players on Friday night. Redshirt senior defender Daniel Munie, fifth year senior defender Nyk Sessock and Henderlong all were slow to come

off the field, but Yeagley attributed this to cramps, saying they should be fine.

After two straight wins,

Indiana will look to carry its momentum when they take on Butler University at 7 p.m.

Wednesday, Sept. 14, in In-

dianapolis. Butler is currently ranked No. 12 in the nation, according to the United Soccer Coaches poll.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Indiana 2022-23 schedule includes 10 nonconference, 18 conference games

By Matt Sebree

masebr@iu.edu | @mattsebree

Indiana women’s basketball announced its 2022-23 schedule Sept. 7. The Hoosiers will play 10 nonconference and 18 conference games this season before playing in the Big Ten tournament, where they lost in the championship last year.

Indiana will begin its season with nonconference games, starting with home matchups against the University of Vermont on Nov. 8 and the University of Massachusetts Lowell on Nov.

11, before traveling to Knoxville, Tennessee, to play the University of Tennessee on Nov. 14.

Indiana also announced it will participate in the Las Vegas Invitational in Nevada, where it will play Auburn University on Nov. 25 and the University of Memphis on Nov. 26. The team will return home to play the University of North Carolina on Dec. 1 as part of the Big Ten/ACC Challenge.

Indiana will open its Big Ten schedule against Illinois at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall on Dec. 4. The

Hoosiers will travel to play the Illini again on Jan. 18 in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois.

Among the Big Ten teams who made last season’s NCAA Tournament, Indiana will play Michigan — who made the Elite Eight — at home on Feb. 16 and on the road on Jan. 23. Indiana will also play Nebraska on Jan. 1 and Maryland on Jan. 12 in Bloomington.

Maryland was knocked out of last year’s tournament in the Sweet 16 — the same round in which Indiana was eliminated.

Matchups against rival Purdue will be played on Feb 5. in West Lafayette and Feb. 19 in Bloomington — Indiana’s final regular-season home game. The Hoosiers swept the two games they played against the Boilermakers last season.

The defending regular season co-champion, Ohio State, will play Indiana on Jan. 26 in Bloomington and on Feb. 13 in Columbus, Ohio. Indiana will also play two games against the other defending regular season co-champion and conference tournament winner

Iowa on Feb. 9 in Bloomington before concluding its season on Feb. 26 in Iowa City, Iowa.

MCPL to honor Banned Books Week on Sept. 18-24

By Tory Basile

vlbasile@iu.edu | @torybasilee

The Monroe County Public Library will celebrate the American Library Association’s annual Banned Books Week with a variety of events from Sept. 18 -24.

Banned Books Week “spotlights current and historical attempts to censor books in libraries and schools,” according to the ALA’s press release. The week long celebration recognizes the importance of intellectual freedom and the sharing of ideas from all perspectives.

Tori Lawhorn, MCPL communications and marketing manager, said the library will recognize Banned Books Week by posting a variety of banned book lists on their websites, as well as arranging book displays at its physical locations.

In preparation for the week’s events, the Kirkwood Avenue location will offer a Homeschool Art Lab: Banned Book Charms event on Sept. 14 as part of its monthly homeschool art program. Students will wrap printed images of book covers over small clay charms to create miniature versions of banned titles like Little House on the Prairie, the Hobit and George.

The Kirkwood location will also welcome younger book lovers to the Teen Artist Club: Mini Banned Book Jewelry event on Sept.

19 and the Tween Reads: Banned Book Club on Sept.

Lawhorn said she hopes the weeklong celebration will illuminate how essential it is to recognize banned books.

“We’re here to provide our community with equitable and impartial access to information and opportunities,” Lawhorn said. “Often

that includes books that can be challenged or banned by certain groups.”

According to the ALA’s annual State of America’s Libraries report, 1,597 books were challenged or removed from libraries, schools and universities in 2021 – a 585% increase from the 273 books challenged

COLUMN: Cozy up to these 5 iconic fall films

By Erin Stafford

lates to fall perfectly.

When the temperature cools and Halloween decor begins to line the shelves at your local grocery store, you know fall is right around the corner. The leaves start to change, the air becomes crisp, and the scent of pumpkin pie follows you wherever you go.

As the days get shorter and the nights get colder, fall sets the perfect mood for cozying up by a fire and watching movies that embrace all the season’s best qualities. With themes that range from witchcraft to romance, here are five films to watch every fall.

“You’ve Got Mail” The owner of a struggling, independent bookstore and the developer of a big box bookstore fall in love while hiding behind their anonymous profiles on an Internet messaging board, both blissfully unaware of the threat they pose to each other’s business. Set against the changing seasons in New York City, “You’ve Got Mail” is one of the most charming romantic comedies of all time. Lead actors Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks remind viewers of the beauty in new beginnings with this enemies-to-lovers tale.

“Practical Magic” Two sisters, who are witches, live in the waterfront village of Coupeville, Washington. Raised by their whimsical aunts in a town wracked with close-minded people, the sisters not only battle prejudice but a curse that prevents them from ever finding love and keeping it alive. With music from Nick Drake and Stevie Nicks, “Practical Magic” exudes a type of small town, by-the-sea coziness that re-

“Dear White People” There is something so inherently autumnal about the start of a new school year. “Dear White People” takes place at a fictional Ivy League university as Black students navigate a world of racial politics. This satirical, coming-of-age film intertwines identity with the season of shifting leaves.

“Dear White People” can educate viewers while also eliciting nostalgia for freshman year of college.

“It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” The Peanuts gang celebrates Halloween in this adorable film about friendship, adolescence and — of course — a great big pumpkin. Little Linus skips out on the fall tradition of trickor-treating with the gang to wait for the Great Pumpkin — a Santa Claus-like figure — to appear and deliver gifts. With a faith-againstall-odds attitude, “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” pulls at the heart strings of viewers both young and old.

“Rushmore” From the mind of Wes Anderson comes “Rushmore,” a story about Max Fischer, a quirky student at the revered Rushmore Academy. When he finds himself attracted to a beautiful new teacher, he asks the father of two of his classmates for advice on how to woo her.

Max’s world turns upside down, however, when the father engages in his own relationship with the teacher.

With acoustic music from The Kinks and Yusuf/Cat Stevens, “Rushmore” captures the charm of first love and academic ambition.

in 2020. Lawhorn said 62% of the books were banned by schools – most of which included works by or about LGBTQ and POC communities.

For Lawhorn, those statistics kickstart important conversations about access to information in schools, and why it’s so important

that MCPL continues to provide a diverse range of views and opinions. “(The statistics) give a perspective on what’s happening in terms of intellectual freedom in schools,” she said. “Books are being challenged in an environment that’s the majority of a student’s experience Mon-

day through Friday.”

Everyone in the Bloomington community is welcome to attend banned book events that week, Lawhorn said.

“We’ve got something for everyone,” she said. “We’re definitely encouraging our patrons to come out and enjoy some banned books.”

COLUMN: What to wear and how to stay fashionable this semester

By Charlotte Jones cmj35@iu.edu

Many people strive to look good. But fashion is more than just looking good — it’s a way to fit in. Style can provide a community, from the patchwork jackets of punk rock to the almost-universal black Converse high tops.

Here’s what to check out this season while not overconsuming clothing: Trend Evolution The best way to stay ahead of the curve is to understand how aesthetics evolve over time. Currently, the coquette look, filled with ruffles and pastels, is all the rage in the online sphere. This, paired with the clean girl aesthetic, embraces hyper-femininity and emphasizes the feminine mystique. However, these aesthetics are focused on dainty dresses and spotless skin, something hard to style during cold weather.

As we shift into the briskness of autumn, we will likely see a shift from pastel pink and cream to more earth tones, especially sage green and brown. A heavy cardigan over a delicate dress will become one of the most fashionable outfits of the season.

Paired with chunky Mary Janes and smudged eyeliner, this dirtier evolution of the coquette look works with the same pieces, just with a grungier attitude.

This new wave of kinderwhore reworks the idea of femininity, something embedded in the backlash to the elitism of the clean girl lifestyle. All coquette enjoyers have to do to repurpose their wardrobe is add a few chunky cardigans, smudge their eyeliner and embrace the darker hues of fall.

of improvisation and intense layering make it more than perfect for chillier climates.

The aesthetic is pretty gender neutral, even working its way into a nonbinary fashion show during NYFW. It is harder to achieve this look sustainably since a lot of looks revolve around metallic bodysuits and faux fur jackets. That being said, eBay is crawling with good finds, allowing those new to the look to find specific pieces without the guilt of unsustainable consumption.

Turn to the Cobrasnake for any fashion inspiration — the iconic party photographer has had a resurgence in popularity, perfectly capturing the revival of indie sleaze.

Important pieces for this look include mirrored sunglasses, tattered sparkly tights, slip dresses and oversized outerwear. Artists like Sky Ferriera and Katy Perry pioneered the wardrobe in the 2010s, wearing pieces from American Apparel and Mudd jeans.

Don’t forget to turn on your phone’s camera flash to get the perfect pictures.

Trends aside, it’s more important to be comfortable in the clothes you wear than to be fashionable. Find what works for you and wear it with confidence.
