LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
Top A graduate walks to her seat prior to the commencement of the Graduate Ceremony at Memorial Stadium on May 7.
The class of 2021 will always have a special significance in the history of IU. Two years of classes before an interruption in March of 2020, which was in turn followed by the strangest year of college in living memory. Between COVID-19, seemingly perpetual construction on campus, the greatest women’s basketball season in memory and a football program on the rise, this year’s graduates have seen a bit of everything. This class was asked to adjust and rise to the occasion when classes moved online last spring, and your graduation serves as proof that you rose above that challenge to succeed. All of you, along with some members of the class of 2020, got the commencement ceremonies you’ve worked for and deserve this past Saturday. You will find photos from that event included in this special edition. We at the IDS hope that this paper will fill the role of a reminder for the present and future of the kinds of trials and experiences the class of 2021 faced on their road to commencement. Things still don’t quite look normal, and many of you weren’t able to celebrate in the ways you had wished. Along with that, the future is still shrouded in uncertainty for many graduates You’ve faced uncertainty before during your time at IU, and you’re more than capable of overcoming it as you've proven time and again . As far as things not looking normal, Bloomington won’t be going anywhere. This city has been a home for many of you these past few years, and it’s more than happy to welcome you back in the future. Congratulations, class of 2021! We’ll be here in Bloomington cheering you on as you move on to accomplish great things.

9,714 degrees awarded at commencement By Phyllis Cha cha1@iu.edu | @phyllischa
IU awarded 9,714 degrees to students May 8 from 103 countries and all 50 states during the in-person undergraduate commencement ceremony. Attendance at the ceremony was limited to faculty and IU graduates from the classes of 2020 and 2021, but was live streamed on IU’s Facebook page for family and friends to watch. Those in attendance were wearing masks. The youngest graduate was 20 and the oldest was 74. IU Provost Lauren Robel, who is stepping down from her position as IU-Bloomington provost and IU executive vice president in June, spoke about how skeptics thought students were incapable of staying safe during the pandemic. “And yet, here you sit, in your caps and gowns on the cusp of moving your tassels from right to left,” she said. “Why? Because the skeptics underestimated you. They underestimated us and they completely missed what was at stake.” She thanked students for their efforts to keep campus safe by getting tested and acknowledged that students sacrificed a lot over the past year. She commended the students for their persistence in helping others during the pandemic, whether by helping other students through jobs on campus or volunteering for the community.

“Overwhelmingly and fiercely and courageously you demonstrated grit and resilience and character,” she said. IU President Michael McRobbie awarded Robel the University Medal, which he said has only been awarded to 19 others in IU history.
This was the 129th commencement ceremony McRobbie has presided over and will be his last before he steps down from his position. Robel awarded McRobbie an honorary Doctor of Science degree. In his speech, McRobbie congratulated the class of 2021 and thanked
them for their efforts to keep campus safe. “Despite the enormous challenges and disruptions caused by the pandemic, you remained dedicated to your studies and steadfast in adjusting to all public health measures needed to help fight the
pandemic, with a combination of courage, resilience and an unwavering concern for others,” he said. The classes of 2020 and 2021 have been affected greatly by the pandemic, student speaker Jason Wang said. Wang graduated with degrees in finance from the Kelley School of Business and computer science from the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing and Engineering. “Perhaps the least specific, yet most important thing we missed, was the victory lap of tailgates, dinners, kickbacks and conversations we had all planned to celebrate the completion of an incredible four years,” he said. Wang said the silver lining in the hardships of the past year was seeing the persistence and grit of the Hoosier spirit. As someone from New York, Wang said he finally understood what it meant to be a Hoosier. Hoosiers are those who are willing to put the needs of others first, he said. “This will not be the last time that we, as people, will be tested. We will never be fully immune to failure, loss, trials and tribulations,” Wang said. “But without a shadow of a doubt, I know that when the time comes, we will have the endurance necessary to rise above these struggles together as peers.”
Meet the only triplets from this year’s graduating class By Helen Rummel hrummel@iu.edu | @HelenRummel
Ellie, Maddie and Ronnie VanBuskirk have watched one another grow up and shared countless celebrations over the years. Last Saturday, the three got to graduate together one last time. The three sisters are the only set of triplets in IU’s 2021 graduating class and were also the first triplets born at the Bloomington hospital. Up until now, they had always attended the same schools. “It’s like having two best friends with you all the time, wherever you go,” Ellie said. The VanBuskirks are now thirdCOURTESY PHOTO

They said while they weren’t certain they would always end up at IU, they have always had Hoosier pride. “It’s really cool to come back and have it completely come full circle,” Ronnie said. The three remember their parents, both IU graduates, helping them host tailgate parties for IU gamedays over the years. They said this was where their family and friends could all meet and was a long-standing tradition in their household. “Our family would always have the biggest tailgate,” Maddie said. “Everyone could count on that and everyone was welcome.” When the three had discovered SEE TRIPLETS, PAGE 4

Mother Bear's Pizza Campus is located at 1428 E. Third St. Bloomington businesses, including Mother Bear's, served more customers than usual during graduation weekend.
Graduation brings businesses more activity By Luke Christopher Norton lcnorton@iu.edu | @ByLCNorton
With the class of 2021’s graduating seniors, class of 2020 graduates and graduates’ parents in town for commencement and graduation celebrations, local businesses in Bloomington noticed more activity than usual weekends. Workers at Hartzell’s Ice Cream on Dunn Street noticed more customers arriv-
ing later in the day, particularly during the night of commencement, and students coming into the store with families. “Generally we don’t really get a lot of older people, this weekend I think we’ve had a lot of older people,” Camryn Schneidau, a Hartzell’s Ice Cream employee, said. “People come in with their whole families.” The increase in activity wasn’t limited to in-person
dining. Restaurants, including Mother Bear’s Pizza Campus, also saw more takeout orders than an average weekend. Spencer Hill, the general manager of Mother Bear’s Pizza Campus, has worked at the local pizza restaurant for 12 years, and been on shift during multiple graduation weekends in the past. Hill said that while workers weren’t sure what to expect this year, the amount of orders was comparable to
past years. “Overall we were probably slightly less busy than normal, but we were extremely busy,” Hill said. “We probably got a lot more carryout versus the dine-in that we usually get.” Hill said that the restaurant had more takeout orders than usual, and believes it was because of people staying at home to celebrate. “I think there’s still some people who don’t want to
come out to eat, but also people who don’t want to wait for a table,” Hill said. Retail businesses on Kirkwood Avenue also noticed a spike in activity during graduation weekend. Greetings on Kirkwood, a gift shop that sells IU apparel, was busy to the point that extra workers were requested to come in Friday, Grace Feiner, a sales associate at Greetings, said. Customers were visiting
the store on a constant basis between 11 a.m and 5 p.m., Feiner said, and most were parents buying IU apparel with their children. Feiner has worked during graduation weekends in the past, and said she expected this year’s weekend to be different, with less customers visiting than in the past. “Really, the only difference was that everybody coming in was wearing masks,” Feiner said

The state legislature's veto override Monday terminated local COVID-19 restrictions in Indiana more stringent than the state's, requiring approval from local city councils, mayors or county legislative bodies for reinstatement.
Indiana lawmakers override veto By Phyllis Cha cha1@iu.edu | @phyllischa
Indiana lawmakers voted Monday to override Governor Eric Holcomb’s veto of Senate Bill 5, making it more difficult for local health officials to issue stricter emergency health orders than the state. Senate Bill 5 ends local COVID-19 restrictions from local health officials more stringent than the ones ordered by the state. For local restrictions to be reinstated, they will need approval from the local city councils, mayors or county legislative bodies, according to an IndyStar article. The bill also lets local businesses appeal shutdown orders in response to public health emergencies. The Indiana House voted to override Holcomb’s veto with a 59-30 vote, and the Senate voted to override it by a 36-10 vote Monday. Holcomb vetoed Senate Bill 5 on May 4. The bill passed the In-
IU President Michael McRobbie delivered Tuesday’s State of the University Address to a small and socially distanced crowd at 1:30 p.m. in President’s Hall. This was McRobbie’s final address after serving as IU president for 14 years. McRobbie announced his retirement last August and will be succeeded by Pamela Whitten. Whitten will be IU’s 19th president and first woman to take the role. She will begin July 1. Each year, the University Faculty Council invites the president to deliver an address. The address usually summarizes the past school year’s student achievement, research, economic development and other topics helping to define the university. McRobbie opened his speech by addressing the university’s successful measures around the COVID-19 pandemic. He said IU’s campuses are some of the safest in the state because of low transmission rates, and he thanked all faculty and staff who worked to keep campuses safe. He also thanked the IU Bloomington School of Public Health and IUPUI’s Fairbanks School of Public Health for their contribution to research in Indiana. Despite the pandemic, McRobbie said the university remains fiscally strong. He said many other universities across the country had to lay off faculty and staff due to budget cuts caused by the pandemic, but IU didn’t have to do so. He said the university’s fiscal position has remained strong and philan-
thropy is at high levels. More than 308,000 degrees have been awarded over the last 14 years — the length of McRobbie’s time as IU president — and more than 212,000 of these degrees were earned by Indiana residents, making the university the largest source of highereducation in the state for residents, he said. More than 50,000 of these degrees were earned by students of color, McRobbie said. McRobbie spoke more about diversity and growth of the student population during his tenure as president. He mentioned the opening of culture centers, like the LGBTQ+ Culture Center, and new programs that help marginalized students, like the Pandemic Health Disparities Fund, which helped students in need of financial support due to the pandemic. He said the class of 2020 has 23,401 students of color, a 102% increase over the last 14 years. Continuing to speak about growth in the university, McRobbie said more than 500 new degrees and certificate programs have been created during his time as president. He also recognized a variety of different school openings across IU campuses that happened during his tenure, including both schools of public health, the Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies and the Media School. McRobbie concluded the speech by thanking his family, faculty, staff and everyone who has helped him during his 14-year tenure across all seven IU campuses. “It has been an enormous honor to serve that great university and all of you,” he said.

Graduating seniors share their experiences and advice Amaiya Branigan is a senior in journalism.
Graduation season is here. As official Alumna, The class of 2021 are now able to reflect on their experiences at IU in totality. The circumstances this class faced will go down in history. The impact of COVID-19 disturbed the method of study for educational institutions across the world. Approximately 93% of American households with school-aged children reported a switch in their child’s mode of instruction. Statistics surrounding the disruption in high education are similar. According to the National Conference of State legislators, the 2020 school year was significantly affected. Around 1,300 institutions across the nation made the decision of switching to online modes of instruction and canceling inperson courses. A reported 44% of colleges and universities quickly adopted a learning system for students that drastically changed the college experience for many students. For many, the second semester of junior year belonging to the class of 2021 had a tremendous impact on how students were able to interact with their school and set the tone for what the remainder of their college careers would become.
Conducting virtual classes is now a commonality shared among college institutions in the country, yet each one may have provided a different experience for their students. Five graduating IU seniors agreed that their experiences changed their lives but they are equally excited to see what the future holds. Although their experiences were varied in nature, they all wished the university would care more about its student body. “Bloomington is what you make it,” IU senior Tobalese Apata said. A person who sits in their dorm all day compared to a person who immerses themselves in campus activity will likely have a different outlook on the university. “IU definitely showed me a lot of different people and I’m grateful for that,” Apata added. “But please hold these white boys in frats accountable for rape the same way you throw Black kids out of school for marijuana.” Apata said she is thankful to the university for bringing out creative aspects of herself she didn’t know she had in her. However, she wishes to see more students of color enrolled in the future. She also said she wants to see the university put more energy into investigating situations such as the death of former IU student, Joseph Smedley. She perceives the university’s
involvement in the investigation to be of poor effort and referred to it as the epitome of disappointment. The university prides itself on “fulfilling the promise,” but the promise's meaning is in the eye of the beholder. IU senior Steve Gueye said he made the bulk of his memories at IU during his sophomore year. “I made a lot of memories in one building, the fifth floor of Wells Library,” Gueye said. “That’s where we as Black people came together. You could talk about your issues with people who are going through the same things, eat and sleep. It was free therapy and a bonding experience.” For years, the fifth floor of Wells library has been an unofficial safe space where students of color come to mingle and study. Gueye’s primary critique for the university is centered in support for students. “I’d say check on your students more. Don’t just send us an email. You can tell when it’s motivated and when it’s real. I always felt like when teachers check up on me it’s robotic and strategic,” Gueye said. Gueye is not alone in observing a disconnect between students and faculty as a problem. For senior Trenise Buchanan, the IU networking base has a strong impact on her Hoosier experience.
Some of her favorite memories were created through the School of Social Work. “I loved the actual hands on experience through my practicum at the Centerstone non-profit mental health org and working with Brown county middle school.” Buchanan said. Buchanan cherishes being a part of the close-knit union of students at the School of Social Work but she imagines that the university has ways it can improve in the future. “The school is running a business at the end of the day but continues to listen to the students. They are what make IU,” Buchanan said in reference to the university at large. Similar to Buchanan, IU senior Brooklyn Hill found that being a part of a closeknit community has been one of the most important aspects of her college experience. “Being a part of the African American Dance Company was big. We were a family,” Hill said. “Every time there was distress, we were able to come to the studio and dance it away together.” Hill has been a part of the company since her freshman year. As Hill leaves the university, she still worries for future Black students that will walk behind her. She leaves behind one message to the university. “Have more compassion for Black people instead of
using them for diversity ads.” Brooklyn shared. Accommodating the needs of Black students is also something senior Yemisi Akinro expects from IU. Her involvement in campus organizations such as the African Women Leadership Organization and the Chi Alpha Christian Ministry has allowed her to experience the institution from many different positions. “Every time I think back on my college experience, I think of the people I’ve met and how they’ve helped me feel comfortable at a PW,.” Akinro stated. Creating safe spaces for all students at a large institution such as IU is essential. This provokes a healthy, balanced environment that allows everyone to feel welcome, seen and heard. Recognizing that the experiences of each student vary depending on their background is a major step in facilitating this type of inclusive environment. “IU pushes the narrative of people having jobs before graduation, but that isn’t the truth for every student in their experiences,” Akinro added. Being transparent and willing to accommodate the need of every type of student is a wish that each of these soon to be graduates have as they conclude their undergraduate journey.

Ellie said it was a good way to make sure they all stayed in touch even if they no longer lived in the same house. “When we lived together it was so easy to keep up with each other’s lives,” Ellie said. “That just changed into once a week.” The trio said IU has given them a place where they can celebrate their individuality while still being involved in each other’s lives. The three said some of their friends didn’t realize they were triplets until graduation. “We’re our own people,” Ellie said. “As much as we’re sisters and we love each other, we’re also very different.” Each sister is at a different sorority. Ellie is in the Alpha Gamma Delta. Ronnie is a part of Alpha Chi Omega and Maddie is in Kappa Alpha Theta. Following graduation the three hope to spend some time with family in their hometown of Noblesville. They have not yet had the chance to celebrate their graduation with extended family due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Ellie graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Media, Maddie with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and Ronnie with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Exercise Science. The three expect to spend time together even if they are apart in the future. Whether they will plan vacations together or meet up for their shared birthdays, they said they cannot imagine a life without one another. “I think about this a lot and there’s not a doubt in my mind that, obviously, we’re going to stay in touch in the future,” Ellie said.

Class of 2021 had a very unique senior year Olivia Franklin is a sophomore in journalism with a minor in political science.
The IU class of 2021 had a sudden end to their junior year, and a senior year full of restrictions — even their college graduation was altered because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Graduating college doesn’t just mean receiving a diploma — there are many traditions that seniors partake in before they graduate from IU. This could be taking graduation photos in front of the Sample Gates, going on a bar crawl with friends before graduation or even just jumping in Showalter Fountain one last time. Seniors were unable to experience these traditions
the same as previous graduating classes did. Many seniors tried to make the most of this year, even if it was under less than ideal circumstances. “This year I regenerated myself and decided to stop being lazy and I feel like I’ve been happy this year and made the most of the time here with my friends,” senior Jake Toppen said. “You can either sit around and be negative about it or enjoy your last year of college.” Some graduates, including Toppen, decided not to go to the commencement ceremony because their parents could not attend the ceremony. “I think I would go to graduation if we weren’t in a pandemic but I didn’t
want to because my family is coming down and I can go take pictures and celebrate with them instead of sitting at a ceremony,” Toppen said. The class of 2021 did not get to experience any of their classes in person this year except for a select number of hybrid classes. “Senior year was definitely harder because I missed out on in-person classes and opportunities to meet new friends,” Toppen said. “A lot of my friends I met during in-person classes.” The class of 2021 not only missed out on academic opportunities, but social opportunities as well. Many of the local hotspots shut down or changed their poli-
cies because of COVID-19. “I feel what I missed out on the most during the pandemic was the bar life,” Toppen said. “When you turn 21 you want to go out and celebrate with friends and Bloomington is a place where you celebrate.” Although the numerous restrictions and switching to an online environment brought many negative experiences, it also brought positive opportunities for some people too. Students were encouraged to spend more time outside with friends, schedules were more flexible with online classes and some classes were more laid back with open-note exams. “I enjoyed making so many new friends from my
apartment complex this year,” Toppen said. “None of us could actually go out so I met so many new people this year that I probably wouldn’t have met if it wasn’t for the pandemic.” IU’s class of 2021 had their graduation ceremony Saturday along with some members of the class of 2020. Graduating in a pandemic is not easy, so congratulations classes of 2021 and 2020! Although your senior year was not how you imagined it would be, you still have good memories during your time at IU to look back on. With your degree in hand, you can look forward to your future full of endless opportunities. orfrankl@iu.edu

Graduates show how they decorated caps By Nadia Scharf njscharf@iu.edu | @nadiaascharf
Graduation caps are one of seniors’ final chances to show their individuality before heading off into the real world. Everyone who chooses to decorate their caps does so for different reasons, and each ends up with their own special design. Michaela Gustaitis is a senior majoring in chemistry and minoring in music. She wanted to incorporate her major into her cap, and she did so with a pun. “It’s really nerdy, but the ‘class of’ is the periodic elements, so it’s like chlorine, arsenic, sulfur, oxygen and then fluorinem,” Gustaitis said. To fill the bottom, she borrowed inspiration from a social media trend. “I saw a TikTok that was ‘frog tattoo ideas’, and one of them was a chemistry frog, so I painted that on there with a rainbow beaker,” Gustaitis said. Hannah Purtlebaugh is a secondary special education major focusing in math. Purtlebaugh said she’s excited to enter the workforce. “I really went to college because I wanted to be a teacher, and I knew that was the route I had to take to get there,” Purtlebaugh said. “So I’m really excited to find a job and get into a school in the fall and to get to where I’ve been working towards for so long.” As a Disney fan, Purtlebaugh incorporated elements from the franchise as well as a reference to her major. Her cap depicts Cinderella’s famous castle in gold with the words “and she taught happily ever after” in the Disney font. Another senior who took inspiration from her favorite franchise is Krystal Watters. “I’m a huge, huge Star Wars fan,” Watters said. “So I knew I had to incorporate Star Wars somehow.” Her cap features the Star Wars Rebel Alliance logo in red with the words “rebel scum” written in yellow. She also added the IU trident and 2021. “It represents me and Star Wars, and things that I like, so I just thought it would be perfect,” Watters said. Some graduates have gone for an aesthetic design, like Amy Gallagher, who will be graduating with a degree in media management and a minor in marketing. In her time at IU, she’s worked with IUSTV, served as a student ambassador in the Office of Admissions and co-founded the Women in Media club. Gallagher said she decorated her cap for her high school graduation, but she hasn’t had the time to go allout this year. Instead, she put a black feather boa around the outer edge and left the middle black. “A girl from my high school graduation decorated hers like that, with feathers around the edge,” Gallagher said. “It’s cute, it’s simple, it’s fun.” For others, though, their caps represent their journey and the obstacles they’ve faced along the way. Jenna Szaday will be graduating with a degree in psychology and a minor in marketing. She’s decorating her cap with the phrase “just for today,” which is the slogan for Narcotics Anonymous. Not only does she volunteer there, she’s also a member herself after struggling with drug addiction in college. “I decided something needed to change, so I went to NA,” Szaday said. “It was kind of weird at first, but I think that ultimately it saved my life, and it’s been a really positive experience for me.” Szaday said NA also helped shape her career goals. While she began her psychology degree with a focus on mental health, she’s now shifted to addiction counseling. She said the phrase that she’s decorated her cap with has helped her get to where she is today. “The ‘just for today’ slogan is really important to me,” Szaday said. “We’re taught to live day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment. There’s just this mindfulness to it.” From frogs to Disney to inspirational quotes, caps of all backgrounds will get tossed in the air at graduation on Saturday. Congratulations, seniors!

Bittersweet songs for the class of 2021 By Ellie Albin ealbin@iu.edu | @elliealbin1
As the class of 2021 nears the end of their time at IU, now is a great time for grads to sit back, relax and take a few minutes to listen to this playlist filled with contemplative songs as they reflect on their college experience. “Beauty in the World” by Macy Gray This song always reminds me of endings because of its use in the ABC dramedy “Ugly Betty.” I won’t give any spoilers about the show, but just know that this is a perfect anthem as you embark on the next step in your life. It reminds you just how beautiful life is and how much potential life has. “Heroes” by David Bowie “Heroes” is genuinely one of the greatest songs ever written; it’s hard to listen to it and not feel inspired. It’s sweetly optimistic and a little dreamlike at times, and its use in “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” makes it feel even grander – if you don’t love “Heroes” already, then go
watch it in context of that film. “99” by Barns Courtney Courtney’s song is a melancholy trip down memory lane. As the Class of 2021 prepares to graduate, I’m sure many will take some time to look back at the road that got them here. “99” is a lovely ode to the wonderfully carefree days of childhood and how complicated and uncomfortable life can become as we grow up. “Girl on Fire” by Alicia Keys There aren’t many songs that are more uplifting than this one. When you listen to it, you genuinely feel like you can conquer anything in the world, which is exactly the feeling any college grad wants to experience. “I Have A Dream” by ABBA One of the greatest joys in life is dreaming big and letting ourselves pursue those dreams. ABBA’s classic tune is a gentle, mesmerizing reminder that dreaming of bigger things can get you through your darkest moments and re-
mind you of the good in the world that is all around you.
the world a better place to be. So, college graduates, dream on.
“Suddenly I See” by KT Tunstall Tunstall’s inclusion of lines like “This is what I wanna be...Why the hell it means so much to me” in the chorus detail those wonderful moments in life when you realize you’re passionate and head-overheels in love with something – like a career, for instance. Even if you haven’t had this moment, you will, and this song serves as a reminder of that.
“In My Life” by The Beatles They really do have a song for everything, and it’s almost impossible for me to leave them off of a playlist. “In My Life” just happens to be the perfect song for looking back at everything you’ve been through and the people who have gone through it with you. You’ve come a long way. Graduating is a big deal. Take some time to look back at all the moments that made you who you are today.
“Audition (The Fools Who Dream)” from “La La Land” Dreaming has certainly been a prominent theme throughout this playlist, but for good reason. Dreams are often not only a gateway for a better life for yourself, but a better life for others – even if it often feels foolish and childish. In Emma Stone’s bittersweet vocal performance, though, she reminds us that even if dreams are messy and not always wellplanned, they’re worth it. Dreaming simply makes

“Outro” by M83 This is a song that has that larger-than-life feel. There aren’t even that many lyrics – it’s about five lines, to be exact. This song feels like it is marking the end of an era, which is exactly what’s happening for college seniors. This song makes me feel both heartbroken and triumphant at the same time. Regardless of where you’re at on the emotional spectrum about graduation, this song will force you to reflect.
The only desk I’ve ever written for at the IDS is the arts desk. I am only a freshman, and I’ve only been on staff for two semesters, so maybe that’s not actually so surprising. But when my first semester at the IDS came to a close in December, I actually applied for one or two desks in addition to the arts desk, thinking I should probably expand my horizons a bit and show a little love for my other interests. But I got placed at the arts desk again, and, I’ll admit, I was a bit bummed at first; I was a little disappointed that I wouldn’t be trying out a new section, and I felt like I wouldn’t continue to grow as a writer. And in all honesty, I sometimes felt self-conscious about being an arts desk member. Not because I didn’t love the things we wrote about. But because I didn’t think other people did. Sometimes, it feels like people sweep arts and entertainment under the rug, and in many ways, I can understand why. It often feels like arts and entertainment news is only filled with reality TV stars, arguments between rich celebrities and the occasional Buzzfeed quiz. I’m so lucky that I got to delve more into this world, because those are far from the only stories out there. If it weren’t for the arts desk, I never would’ve gotten to learn and write about Glenn Close’s costume collection coming to IU. I wouldn’t have gotten to interview the amazing people who put together the “SEE HER RUN: Monroe County Women in Pol-
itics” exhibit. I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to share my opinions on music – something I hold near and dear to my heart – and write articles ranging from album reviews to song rankings to sharing my love for the Beatles and Taylor Swift. And, just in general, I never would’ve gotten to see what a great arts and museum scene Bloomington has. With the Jacobs School of Music, the Eskenazi Museum of Art, Lilly Library and more, there is so much to explore. I even got to try and track down why Bruce Springsteen was eating at the Uptown Cafe in Bloomington, and, even though I’m fully aware that a story like that may not seem too important in the grand scheme of things, it actually is. Because, for some reason, people care. And it’s okay that we can’t always explain why we care. Writing about the arts has allowed me to understand people’s passions on a deeper level. The arts – whether it be music, movies, books or another medium – are a portal into someone’s personal life. It puts our deepest devotions on display and let’s us show to the world who we really are and why we love being alive. It may not have the glamour of being a political reporter or investigative journalist, which I thought I would be one day. I’m only 18, so who knows – but when you get past the tabloid stories – arts reporters and columnists often get to explore humanity at its best, not its worst. And we will always need those stories.

MEN’S TENNIS
‘A true Hoosier’ Will Piekarsky reflects on his time with IU men's tennis By Ara Cowper acowper@iu.edu | @aracowper5
A group of twelve-and-thirteen-year-olds gathered in a circle, waiting to hear what their tennis camp instructor had to say. “How many of you want to play collegiate tennis one day?” Will Piekarsky raised his hand. Nothing special happened the first time Piekarsky, now a graduate student, picked up a tennis racket. The sport was simply an activity to keep the energetic five-year-old busy during his family’s annual summer vacations to Pennsylvania. And for nine years, that’s all the sport was — a summer activity. It wasn’t until Piekarsky began high school that he decided to take tennis seriously. He played tennis for the Bloomington High School South Panthers, and it was there that he would be an All-State honoree twice while earning three Area Player of the Year accolades. He’d also make the Indiana Senior Boys All-Star tennis roster in 2015. Despite success as a high school player, Piekarsky initially had just one Division I offer as a senior: Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. Indiana University, his hometown school, remained his biggest goal. “Being from Bloomington, I just loved Indiana so much,” Piekarsky said. “It was always the dream of mine.” Born and raised in the area, Piekarsky grew up an avid IU fan. He practiced at the IU Tennis Center in his younger years and through his seasons in junior tennis. After a late offer for a spot as a walk-on and getting accepted into the Kelley School of Business, Piekarsky knew that he had to come to IU. For him,
it was the perfect opportunity all at once. “It was a no-brainer for me,” he said. “I just couldn’t say no.” Piekarsky walked on to the program in 2016. He joined head coach Jeremy Wurtzman’s second recruiting class at IU, one that was focused more on local recruits rather than internationals. “With our recruiting class, they were looking for a lot of Americans,” Piekarsky said. “I was especially offered a spot because I was from Bloomington and knew the culture of IU and what it took.” As a walk-on, Piekarsky had to prove himself from the start. Wurtzman said that Piekarsky never skipped practice and was always there for his teammates. “I remember with Will, our first week of practice we were in tough conditioning and right away he’s yelling “Hoosiers!” and getting everyone fired up to get through the workout,” Wurtzman said. “And I think that really proved to show what he was all about—just blood, sweat, and tears for this program.” Piekarsky eventually moved to a starting doubles spot during his senior year. He competed in doubles for the last two years, picking up a .706 winning percentage. This past season, Piekarsky started every match at No. 3 doubles. He spent the last fifteen matches playing with freshman Ilya Tiraspolsky, and the pair have an 8-4 record together. “He’s played a big role in doubles,” Wurtzman said. “That has meant so much to this team and so much to him, I know.” But it was never about the playing time for Piekarsky. He hopes that through his time at IU, his teammates learned how to “give it all for the team.” He
said that he wants them to be selfless because that’s the teammate he tried to be, and the culture that needs to be continued. One of Piekarsky’s proudest moments was being named a team captain, but he can’t name one specific moment that stands out in his career. “I don’t know if there even is just one special moment,” Piekarsky said. “Spending every day with the guys and being able to look back and see the culture we built is really special every day.” After spending the last few years with the team, he’s proud of how things have progressed. “Seeing how the culture has evolved in the five years that I’ve been here, from where we’ve started to where we are now, it’s just a whole different atmosphere,” Piekarsky said. “Good things are on the way.” After coaching Piekarsky for five seasons, Wurtzman describes him in one word. “Passionate,” he said. “He’s brought so much passion and positivity to this team and it’s contagious to everyone. Will has given everything to this team.” Piekarsky started out as a Bloomington kid with big dreams and finished as a doubles starter, a team captain, and a leader in the program. The twelve-year-old boy who raised his hand at a tennis camp over a decade ago had no idea the success that was to come. “It was from the first week here until the last match that he played, Will was going to give everything that he has to this program,” Wurtzman said. “He is a true Hoosier in every single way.” COURTESY PHOTO

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
Reflecting on Teri Moren’s time in Bloomington By Audrey Hausberger auhaus@iu.edu | @AudreyHausberg1
IU women’s basketball head coach Teri Moren entered her team’s NCAA tournament locker room with a dry head of hair and dry clothes on her back. She left soaked after her team
surprised her with streams of water from firing water bottles following their victory against No. 12 Belmont University on March 24. This marked the program's first ever Sweet Sixteen appearance. Moren and her team then went on to make pro-
gram history for a second time in the NCAA tournament when they made it to the Elite Eight after upsetting No. 1 North Carolina State 73-70. The 2014-15 Season First seasons will often have stumbles. Moren’s first
season with IU ended with a losing record of 15-16. Despite the challenges of coaching a new team in a new environment, Moren had some highlights such as improving the Hoosiers' scoring average, free throw shooting and defense. IU’s 72 points per game
C
was the program's best since the 1995-96 season, and their 74% free throw shooting was the best since the 2003-04 season. Moren improved the team’s quickness on defense, which translated to 284 total steals, the best in four years.

nament in 14 years. Moren’s accomplishments this season earned her the Big Ten Coach of the Year award. The 2016-17 Season Moren’s season record continued to improve in her third year, when the Hoosiers finished with a 23-11 record. New program records in points scored with 2,547, scoring average with 75 points per game and assists with 564 helped lead them to the WNIT Quarterfinals. The 2017-18 Season Continuing their success in the WNIT, the Hoosiers won the tournament after defeating Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in the championship game. The team finished the season with a 23-14 record. Moren also had success recruiting strong players in Tyra Buss and Amanda Cahill, who together set 10 records and rank in the top five of IU women’s basketball’s all-time scorers. Buss and Cahill also made All-Big Ten teams with Buss making the first team and Cahill the second. The 2018-19 Season This season marked the fourth consecutive year of a 20 plus game-win with a 2113 record. The Hoosiers also had their fourth straight postseason appearance as the 10 seed in the NCAA Tournament. They made it past the No.7 University of Texas at Austin in the first round, but fell short against the No. 2 University of Oregon in the second round. The 2019-20 Season Moren and her team showed a significant jump for their win-loss ratio,

holding a substantial winning record of 24-8. Their efforts this season had them ranked for all 20 weeks in the AP’s top 25. Included in this, the Hoosiers made a program record ranking at No. 12.
The 2020-21 Season Moren’s most recent season was her best yet. The Hoosiers had their lowest amount of losses during Moren’s tenure with a 21-6 record. The Hoosiers also accomplished another program
record with 16 wins against Big Ten competition. Their regular season success earned the Hoosiers their highest NCAA tournament ranking in program history as the No. 4 seed, with their second highest of a No.
6 seed dating back to 1983. For the first time in program history, IU made it to both the Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight. Other accomplishments for her players include junior guard Grace Berger being
named as one of 13 finalists for the USA Women’s FIBA Americup team while senior guard Ali Patberg, sophomore forward Mackenzie Holmes and junior guard Aleksa Gulbe won All-Big Ten honors.

IU men's basketball head coach Archie Miller speaks Oct. 2, 2019, at Big Ten Basketball Media Day in Rosemont, Illinois. Miller was the head coach from 2017 to 2021.
The tragedy of IU men’s basketball and Archie Miller bhohulin@iu.edu | @BradleyHohulin
Prologue One program clinging to its dignity, in fair Bloomington where we lay our scene, a struggling team fell under scrutiny. So, IU basketball fired Tom Crean. Archie Miller was the coach IU chose, with hopes he would give the Hoosiers new life. But after poor offense and worse free throws, it became clear Miller brought mostly strife. While IU fans are often full of love, in Miller’s time they did not hide their rage. They believed Miller ought to be removed for never reaching the sport’s biggest stage. Thus, the university we attend, must start anew and find a way to mend. Act One From the University of Dayton, home of the Flyers, in 2017 Miller was hired. An Elite Eight visit was his claim to fame, and a certain excitement was attached to his
name. It seemed as though Miller would change the game, not spin his tires with more of the same. Defense was a strong point — offense, not so much. The passing was poor and the shooting lacked touch. Still, there were upsides to Miller’s reboot. He signed Romeo Langford, a five-star recruit. But Langford just couldn’t quite carry the team, and the hype train stalled after 2018. The NIT was IU’s destination, a quick quarterfinal elimination. Act Two Langford skipped town, but IU wasn’t left stranded. A helping hand came, and that help was left-handed. Trayce Jackson-Davis, a scoring machine, joined shooters like Al Durham and Devonte Green. The journey was long and paved with adversity. Then IU caught fire against Florida State University. The Hoosiers stole five wins from schools that were ranked.
Then again, there were times when they totally stank. Triumphs took turns with 20-point losses, but the wins were enough to appease Miller’s bosses. When at long last the postseason talk came around, it felt like the Hoosiers were tournament-bound. I won’t tell you what happened next because, well, who needs to relive a 14-month hell? Act Three The Hoosiers were close to the big dance, no doubt. Still, no March Madness games equals no clout. The path to approval has only one route, and NIT visits are nothing to tout. IU started sloppy, but had good reasons — young players, new gameplans and no real offseason. Yet the Hoosiers kept losing in all the same ways, getting trounced several times once they hit Big Ten play. Who needs cash for boxing on pay-per-view? To see a butt-whooping, just watch IU play Purdue.
Time after time that the Hoosiers got beat, Miller sweat more on his scalding hot seat. Fans and alumni charged forward in fleets in a grammarless maelstrom of quickly-typed Tweets. Act Four This spring, the tournament came to our home state, where fans vacillate between thrilled and irate. Ankles were twisted and noses were smashed, and IU’s postseason hopes once more were dashed. In 49 others, it’s merely a sport. In Indiana, nothing’s of greater import. Thus, I see why folks were all out of sorts when the Hoosiers couldn’t even play on their home court. All of the star-studded in-state recruiting couldn’t make up for their god-awful shooting. March 15, thanks to two hefty donations, Miller was exiled from the Hoosier nation. Miller was fired, though none of us cried for his $10.53 million goodbye. Full rides are godsends for kids who need aid,
but the school has some coaches who need to get paid. Act Five Miller was gone and IU needed answers. Who could corral all the possible transfers? The Hoosiers were broken and needed a fix. Enter Mike Woodson of the New York Knicks. Sure, Woodson won plenty back in the day, but his hire raised more question marks than hoorays. Hoosier fans’ hearts didn’t lean Woodson’s way — until he convinced JacksonDavis to stay. Armaan Franklin and Durham were gone, but Woodson kept Race Thompson from moving on. A pair of skilled freshmen remained on the depth chart, and Woodson appears to be off to a great start. Hopefully now all our heads have been cleared. Stop tweeting and dry those rage-induced tears. It’s not all that tragic. Let go of your fears. We’re watching a game, not reading Shakespeare.
We’re sharing our secret.
