THE IDS WILL NOT PUBLISH OVER SPRING BREAK, MARCH 14-18. PUBLICATION WILL RESUME MONDAY, MARCH 21.
LOOK DIFFERENT?
THE IDS IS COMING BACK FROM SPRING BREAK SKINNIER AND BETTER THAN EVER...
As newspapers adjust to today’s
economy, they must fi nd ways to conserve
resources. One way the Indiana
Daily Student will be cutting back is
by using less newsprint.
After spring break, the width of
the paper will shrink by an inch. Th is
is comparable to one column in the
current paper. Although we will physically
have less space, the editorial staff
sees this as an opportunity to not only
rethink the way our paper looks but
also the way we present content. In
the coming weeks, you can expect to
see more short story forms in an eff ort
to present news more effi ciently.
Design-wise, this means running
larger visuals, writing compelling
headlines and taking more risks with
our use of color, typography and
page organization.
Today’s paper is the fi nal edition
in our current style. Th e IDS will not
publish March 14-18, and the paper
will resume printing the Monday
after spring break, March 21, with
the new design. We would love to
know what you think. E-mail editor@

Federal Pell
Grants could
see major cuts
BY MICHELLE SOKOL
mlsokol@indiana.edu
Thursday was the deadline
to fi le the Free Application for
Federal Student Aid in order
to qualify for the maximum
amount of fi nancial aid.
But even students who
fi led the FAFSA on time may
not receive as much as they
expected.
President Obama’s budget
proposal, released in mid-
February , revealed that Federal
Pell Grants may be cut by
as much as $100 billion during
the next 10 years.
Pell Grants are part of a
federal fi nancial aid program
that 9.4 million college students
rely on each year.
The average yearly Pell
Grant is worth more than
$5,000 and is considered by
many to be the backbone of
federal fi nancial aid. Yet it
may be subject to a decrease
as part of House Resolution 1 .
If the bill passed by the
U.S. House of Representatives
makes it through the Senate
deliberation and is approved
by Obama, students could see
a decrease of up to 15 percent
in the amount of their Pell
Grant. Students receiving the
maximum award of $5,550
would see their grant drop to
$4,705, a loss of $845 .

Senior in fi nals for award
BY CLAIRE ARONSON
cearonso@indiana.edu
Senior Caitlin Ryan was selected
as one of 15 national fi -
nalists for the Students in Service
Awards . Ryan, an Indiana Daily
Student employee , is representing
IU in the competition. The winner
will be announced March 18.
“It is really exciting,” she said.
“It is exciting to be the only person
from Indiana to have made it
this far.”
Ryan’s service project is called
Books & Beyond , a service learning
project that connects college
students at IU with TEAM school
students in Newark, N.J. The writing
partners work together to write
children’s stories centered on a
general topic during the course
of the year. Rwandan students at
Kabwende Primary School are
also writing stories. The stories are
all compiled into an anthology and
delivered to Rwanda, Ryan said.
“The core value of the project
is that everyone in this world has a
story to tell so everyone’s story is
important,” she said.
Ryan, along with four other
students and fi ve teachers, traveled
to Rwanda during summer
2009 to deliver 2,000 books .
“It was amazing,” she said.
“It was my fi rst time in Africa. It
was a cultural experience for sure,
but it was also really cool to see
the project go full circle because
when we were building it up, we
were thinking about that this is
benefi ting three different groups
of students in two countries, and
fi nally we got to see the part outside
the U.S.”
The Students in Service Award
winner receives a $5,000 scholarship
, $2,500 for his or her nonprofit
project and $2,500 for the community
organization with which
he or she is partnered. Ryan, however,
applied for the award because
of the potential benefi t to the
project as a whole.
“I mean getting the scholarship
would be nice, but I mainly did it
because I saw it as an opportunity
for us to get a grant and support
our project,” she said. “This
is the fi rst year they did this particular
competition, and I didn’t realize
how big of a deal it would be
and how many people would enter.
You can see what all the students
are doing around the country,
and it is really amazing.”
Ryan, who is planning on traveling
to Rwanda again this summer
to deliver more books, said
Books & Beyond has made her
college experience.
“I mean I love the academic
things IU has to offer and I have
learned a ton in the classroom, but
I have learned almost more outside
the classroom through my
involvement in this project,” she
said.
Ryan said she sees the project
continuing to be successful after
she graduates.
“In my fi rst and second year, it
was like, ‘I am investing myself in
this because this is a good thing to
do,’ and this year it has been more
like, ‘this is awesome and I want
other students to have this opportunity
in the future,’” she said. “I
think it is going to go really well.”
New research in brain mapping
BY BRIANA BARGER
bcbarger@indiana.edu
In the game “Six Degrees of
Kevin Bacon,” the theory is that
any actor, no matter how well or
little known, is somehow connected
to the actor Kevin Bacon
through other actors in movies.
It is the player’s job to fi nd that
connection.
The same concept is used in a
new study about brain networks.
Dr. Olaf Sporns , IU neuroscientist
and author of the recent book
“Networks of the Brain ,” gave insight
to his research and how it applies
to everyday life.
Sporns said the book includes
research that puts together two
separate fi elds of work that had
never been pieced together before:
the workings of the brain and
networking .

Greek houses prepare for spring break trips
BY VICTORIA SUMMERS
vsummers@indiana.edu
For many greek houses, it’s
tradition to go on spring break
trips together, and this year is
no different, said Josh Vollmer ,
vice president of communications
for Interfraternity Council .
For Kappa Delta sorority, it
has been a long-standing tradition
for its sophomore pledge
class to go on a spring break trip
together, said sophomore member
Rachel Rapp .
This year, 22 of the 40 women
in her pledge class are going
to Daytona Beach , Fla. , she said.
“It’s a tradition within the
house for your sophomore year
to go with your pledge class
somewhere for spring break,”
Rapp said. “It’s like a good time
after midterms to just relax, especially
as one of our last big
things with our pledge class this
year.”
Vollmer said in previous
years, many houses went to Acapulco,
Mexico , because there
was a company that worked
closely with IU to get greek
“There are many networks —
networks of cells, proteins, people,”
Sporns said.
By applying the concept of networking
to the brain, research has
shown a new way to look at and
map the brain.
“This will help us understand
how the human brain functions
work,” Sporns said. “That is my
hope. We are beginning to get a
much clearer picture of the wiring
diagram and what that looks like.”
Professor of psychological and
brain sciences Aina Puce said this
can change the way researchers
study the brain.
“I think that it’s a change in the
way that we think,” Puce said. “We
do think (of) the brain more as a
whole, and it allows us to study the
brain in ways that we haven’t been
able to before.”
Puce is also the director of the
students party package deals.
But this year, many students
have changed their plans because
of the travel advisory in
Mexico, Vollmer said.
“This year is unusual, and the
majority of people seem to be
going to Ft. Lauderdale as one
collective group,” Vollmer said.
“This probably has a lot to do
with the violence in Mexico.”
Delta Zeta is one of the houses
going to Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.,
for spring break. Junior member
Meagan King said 12 women
from her pledge class are going
on the trip together.
While the destination varies
each year, King said it’s a tradition
for women in the same
pledge class to go on spring
break trips together.
“Every year they pick a
place. Last year they went to
Acapulco, and the juniors last
year in our house went to Ft.
Lauderdale,” King said. “I think
it’s just kind of like when you’re
a sophomore you go here, when
you’re a junior you go here, and
senior year you just kind of pick
a place.”
Imaging Research Facility.
“I am basically a brain scientist,”
Puce said. “I study how (the)
brain makes sense: the body language,
studying brain function and
how different areas of the brain
and different structures of the brain
interact with others and how our
brains make sense of it.”
Sporns said the importance of
connecting networking with the
brain might best be explained by
using the small world phenomenon,
which shows up a lot in social
and biological networks.
Sporns mentioned the game
“Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon”
when talking about the brain
network.
“With the movie actor database,
I think you can play this online,
you can connect any two actors
with as little as four or fi ve
links every time,” he said.
King also said the women
from her pledge class will be
taking a coach bus to Ft. Lauderdale
as part of their travel
package.
“You could either just buy
the package to stay in the hotel,
or you could just buy the package
to ride the coach bus down
there and stay in the hotel, so
all the people that are going that
might not even be in our house
will be riding the bus with us,”
King said.
As an alternative to a traditional
spring break trip, 10
members of Lambda Chi Alpha
fraternity are going to Slidell,
La., to build homes for Habitat

Fromm said.
Fromm said the building site
is just outside the city of New

were destroyed during Hurricane
Katrina, so there are still a
lot of recovery efforts.

4 IU professors recognized,
elected to be AAAS fellows
BY DAVID CAMELI
dcameli@indiana.edu
Four faculty members from
the IU Department of Biology
were elected as fellows to the
American Association for the Advancement
of Science , which ties
the department’s record for most
inductees in a single year.
Lynda Delph , Roger Hangarter
, Roger Innes and Rudy Raff
were joined by IU Rudy Professor
of political science Edward
Carmines and more than 500 other
individuals honored in Washington,
D.C., for their work.
This is the second consecutive
year that list included at least one
faculty member from IU .
Innes is the chairman of the
IU Department of Biology and
was honored for his study of the
molecular mechanisms by which
plants detect pathogens . He said
the inductions will bring more
recognition to the department.
“Ever since I joined this department
in 1991 I have known
Challenge” and wanted to return
again this year.
“We’re building a house
with hundreds of people we’ve
never met, and what’s really
cool about it is that everybody
leaves their mark,” Fromm said.
“When you’re done, you get to
write in some sort of part of the
house about your group, so last
year we wrote our letters and
our names, and they’re still in
the house.”
Fromm also said each Habitat
for Humanity house takes
three to four months to build,
and Lambda Chi men could be
doing anything from installing
insulation and plastering to
painting, depending on how far
along the house is when they arrive.
“Now is the time to show this
campus, our dean, ourselves, our
families, our community that we
can do something,” Fromm said.
“We are, as a greek community,
so strong and so important
to this school. We need to show
that we can do something outside
of our home and outside the
walls of our fraternity.”
it was an outstanding department,
but I also felt we were underappreciated
by our peers on the
West and East Coasts,” he said.
“This type of recognition helps to
alleviate that issue.”
The addition of this year’s
class brings the total number of
inductees from the Department of
Biology to 19 .
Innes said 14 AAAS members
are active and that almost 25 percent
of the department’s current
faculty has been inducted.
Raff, distinguished professor
of biology , whose research focused
on the developmental processes
in the evolution of species
and the fossilization of marine
animal soft tissue , said the quality
of the faculty has made his
time as a professor and researcher
more enjoyable.
“I’ve been here for 40 years
now, and I haven’t really wanted
to go away anywhere,” he said.
“It’s really a very good environment
if you’re doing science and
if you’re a faculty member.”
Raff said the department’s
emphasis on research has also
provided undergraduate students
with an opportunity to work in
a faculty member’s lab while receiving
class credit.
This experience can prove invaluable
for undergraduate students
who are interested in attending
graduate school, he said.
Innes said faculty members
are chosen “primarily based on
their outstanding track record in
research.” As chairman, Innes
said his job is to ensure that the
department can provide the resources
necessary for success.
“Indiana University has invested
heavily in providing stateof-the-art
facilities such as microscopes
and supercomputers,
thus providing a conducive environment
for research,” he said.
“With our combination of outstanding
junior faculty and outstanding
infrastructure, I expect
the department will continue to
add to those 19 AAAS fellows at
a steady clip.”

In life and in politics, it’s dangerous
to oversimplify the complex world we
live in.
The devil is in the details — and if
you lose sight of them, you lose sight of
the real situation. Political
scientists oversimplify
the world in
many ways, but one of
the worst is describing
a country and its people
in the light of its
government’s actions.
There is an unfortu-

nate truth in that many
people who discuss
politics will take the
actions of a particular
government and equate
them to the people.
This black and white view of the
world, the “us versus them” mentality,
causes all kinds of political miscalculations,
which result in terrible consequences
for the lives of people.
Some people take it as far as associating
a nationality with the government’s
policies. For example, some may think
because people are Chinese , they must be
freedom-hating, commie comrades. And
if they are from Saudi Arabia , surely they
must view women as property.
Some clearly make the mistake of
transposing the will of a government to
the will of an individual. For politicians
to do this and then base foreign policy
decisions off these notions causes even
greater issues — issues that can spawn
international confl ict.
The truth remains that these individuals
are diverse and cannot be summarized
by their government’s actions. Many of
these issues are too political for the individual
citizen to invest interest in; thus,

RULE 4
Governments do not represent the people
many politicians have free reign when it
comes to international diplomacy. The
truth is most people don’t invest themselves
into the complexities of governments’
policies; most humans have normal
hobbies. The majority of people of
the world are not overzealous, extremist
or otherwise violent. People generally just
want to live happy lives, maybe do some
good for the world — certainly not conquer
it. While governments are supposed
to be accurate representations of the people,
they oftentimes do not refl ect their
full interests.
As seen clearly in democracy, much
of the time the minority party is silenced
on the international scene as the majority
party conducts diplomacy. In autocratic
governments, it’s even truer that these
governments’ actions do not refl ect the
true will of the people.
Thus, never take international policy

as a standard for judging individuals or
groups of populations.
“OK, fi ne Matt,” you might say. “But
what’s the big deal?”
The big deal is we make decisions that
affect those people based on their
government’s actions.
The big deal is we impose sanctions
on Iran and its people based on what Ahmadinejad
, Khamenei and a few other old
Iranian men do. The big deal is we invaded
the country of Iraq partially based on
the terrors committed by Saddam
Hussein .
There is a fi ne line between an issue
with a government and an issue with a
people. While it is true sometimes to end
the atrocities committed by government,
there must be use of force that affects
both the people and the government.
Sometimes, we need to go to war to

Sociable readers, tweet this: My
close friends max out at 150.
No, I’m not talking about character
space for those microblogs. I mean real,
true friends — you can’t have more than
150 of them.
Here, I’ll go fi rst
to make you seem
less cruel and heartless.
(I have to confess
here because my
idea of Facebook is
burying my introverted
head in a hard-
bound book.)
I, Paige Henry,
admit in this article
that I have less than
150 friends.
Why this number?
Well, some years ago
a British anthropologist by the name of
Robin Dunbar published an article theorizing
that a primate’s neocortex size
is directly related to its species’ general
population of social groups.
For us humans, Dunbar’s number is
said to fall somewhere between 100 and
230, but the “mean group size” is said
to be 147.8, which is then rounded up to
the magical 150.
This number is regarded as how
many relatively close relationships our
brains can maintain in a practical manner,
and despite common misconceptions,
it seems to be true.
Even Facebook fi ts into the formula.
Their statistics state that 500 million
people actively use the site, yet the average
has 130 friends.
The Wall Street Journal says the
number 150 has corresponded to our social
groups for centuries: “The length of
But more often than not, there are several
other political mechanisms and actions
in place to foil the efforts of governments
without foiling the people of
the nation. Supporting opposition movements,
applying international political
pressure and even aiding the people of a
nation can sometimes undermine the efforts
of corrupt governments .
Overall in politics it’s important to remember
when making political decisions
that the people are a separate entity from
the government that represents them.
Though the government may have
meant harm and perhaps deserves reprimand,
the people remain a separate matter.
Take to heart that all of us are one of
the same, even under the guise of
differing governmental rule.

address books, the size of hunter-gatherer
bands, the population of neolithic villages
and the strength of army units” all
typically add up to 150.
So those of you boasting 300, 500,
1,000 friends or more — who are you
kidding?
We all know who our actual, best
and dearest friends are; yet we’re claiming
to be “friends” with people we don’t
even talk to, let alone see.
I know Facebook is a great tool for
connecting with lost buddies and staying
in touch with those we do care
about, but maybe we should be honest
and tweeze out those fi ller-friends.
Deleting false friends (false acquaintances,
really) doesn’t need to be viewed
as murder. No one is going to die from a
simple, polite “de-friend.”
Maybe the Lenten season should
promote this kind of purity purge, an
abstinence from weak social ties.
In an online interview from 2008,
Dunbar elaborated on his number 150,
saying that it’s just “one in a series of
circles.”
At our social core there are about
fi ve best friends; the next ring houses
around 15, then 50, and fi nally 150 for
quality relationships.
We should be proudest of the people
we know intimately. It seems to me that
having a strong base of fi ve friends is
better than an army of strangers.
An individual’s worth and “likeability”
don’t belong in a numbers game
measured by arbitrary buddies.
As always, it’s about quality, not
quantity.

PEACE OUT,
HOOSIER
STATE!
The forecast for Bloomington
this spring break is bleak. The
highest temperature will reach
61 degrees , and almost every
day will be cloudy . Here are
some places you could go to
escape the doom and gloom of
the Hoosier state.
South Padre Island
Surrounded on all sides by
beautiful beaches and water,
this Texan island will see
temperatures in the mid-70s
during break.
Las Vegas
What happens in Vegas
stays in Vegas — that is until
you come home and brag to all
your friends that you went there
for break. Temperatures will be
in the high 70s in this desert
city, and you’ll fi nd no shortage
of things to do.
Panama City
Florida is the classic getaway
for those on spring break. You’ll
get low 70s and a week of
sunshine if you choose to hit
this beach.
Lake Havasu
Pack plenty of tank tops and
short shorts. This favorite for
West Coast college students,
located in Arizona , features
beaches and a lively nightlife.
Visitors will see high 80s all
week.

TAKING YOU THERE
INDIANA HISTORICAL SOCIETY PRESENTS 3-D EXHIBIT
COURTESY PHOTOS
LEFT Live actors re-enact the scene that occurred after Robert F. Kennedy announced the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. on April 4, 1968, in Indianapolis. The actors are part of an exhibit at
the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Museum titled “You Are There.”
RIGHT Robert F. Kennedy breaks the news of Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination in Indianapolis. Kennedy traveled to Indianapolis in order to campaign for the presidency.
BY MICHELA TINDERA
mtindera@indiana.edu
Hours after he learned Martin
Luther King Jr. had been killed,
Sen. Robert F. Kennedy took the
podium in Indianapolis to notify
an unaware crowd of the tragedy.
On that evening of April 4,
1968, Indianapolis was one of the
few cities in the U.S. that did not
experience riots.
This was supposed to be
another routine stop on Kennedy’s
presidential campaign tour, but in
the few hours between his last stop
at Ball State University and Indianapolis
, Kennedy prepared himself
to present an unwritten speech
to address the issue head-on.
Now 40 years later, through
3-D hologram effects, live acting
and dialogue from Kennedy’s
speech, fellow Hoosiers can experience
what it was like to be a part
of the crowd that evening as a part
of the most recent addition to the
Indiana Historical Society’s “You
Are There” exhibits.
The exhibit titled “You Are
There 1968: Robert F. Kennedy
Speaks ” opened Feb. 22 at the Eugene
and Marilyn Glick Indiana
History Center in Indianapolis .
The exhibit’s topic was selected
from the 1.6 million photos
the IHS has archived and took
three and a half years to complete,
Director of Exhibitions
Research and Development Eloise
Scroggins said.
“We wanted to pick something
with really compelling subject
matter,” Media Relations Manager
Amy Lamb said. “A lot of people
are aware of Kennedy’s speech,
but some aren’t. This allows everyone
to learn more about it.”
The people who were in the
crowd April 4 and are played by
actors in the exhibit are still alive
today. The actors were required to
4
meet and talk to those people so
they could get a realistic portrayal
of what happened at the speech.
Theodore Boehm , who was 29
years old at the time, was an upcoming
lawyer and member of
Kennedy’s audience. He later
went on to become an Indiana Supreme
Court Justice and served as
CEO for the 1987 Pan American
Games .

Dogs detect early bed bug
infestations through smell
BY KOURTNEY LIEPELT
kliepelt@indiana.edu
Detection dogs won’t let the
bed bugs bite — literally.
Carol and Ryan Cobine promote
early detection of and education
about bed bugs through
their business, The Dog Knows
Detection . They utilize their
dog Dixie , along with a handler,
to identify the presence of
the insects.
“We really want to educate
people so that they understand
what they can do, and we want
to give people one more tool that
they can use to monitor,” Carol
Cobine said. “You don’t understand
how much an infestation
can turn your life upside down
until you actually have one.”
The key to using dogs for inspections
is the teamwork between
the dog and its handler,
Carol Cobine said.
She said the inspection process
typically entails an initial
walk-through of the site by
the handler, followed by a walkthrough
with Dixie.
» 3-D
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4
Boehm said in a press release
that the campaign speech was
“a pivotal event for me that rededicated
a career toward public
service.”
Now he is portrayed by an actor
in the exhibit.
“The actors get to know a lot
about them and their personality,”
Lamb said. “They learn the little
The handler then chooses a
starting point for the dog in each
room being examined and gives
a search command. It is the handler’s
job to keep the dog on task
during this.
If a bed bug is scented, Dixie
will sit and put her nose on the
strongest source of the odor — a
passive alert, Carol said.
This dog and handler team
is an improvement from purely
visual inspections as it speeds
up the process, President of the
National Bed Bug Association
Micah Nix said.
“A human inspection can take
anywhere from a half hour, to do
it properly, and we can go in there
and do it in just a few minutes using
the dogs and a visual inspection,”
Nix said.
Since bed bugs are diffi
cult to detect due to their
small size and elusive nature,
Nix said using a dog’s sense
of smell improves a bed bug
inspection signifi cantly.
“Because of the nature of
the insect, they hide in various
crevices, and they’re just not
things, everything down to their
idiosyncrasies.”
“You Are There” is one exhibit
of many in the interactive “The
Indiana Experience. ”
The other exhibits currently
open are “Tool Guys and Tin
Lizzies, ” where visitors can walk
into a 1924 automobile repair
shop, and “The Violin Maker Upstairs,
” where visitors are introduced
to a violin-making couple
in 1914 Indianapolis.

presented for visual inspection.
Using the olfactory senses
of a dog magnifi es your inspection
many, many times over,”
Nix said.
In addition, many people are
unaware of bed bug detection
methods, making it more diffi -
cult to determine whether or not
bed bugs are present in a room or
building.
“Only about a third of humans
react to a bed bug bite, so
two-thirds of us can be fed on and
never even know it,” said Marc
Lame , entomologist with the IU
School of Public and Environmental
Affairs .
In any case, detecting bed
bugs early, prior to an infestation,
is crucial, Carol
Cobine said.
“If you detect them early, then
you have a greater chance of remediation
because bed bug infestations,
once you have them, they
are very diffi cult to remediate and
they’re very hard to get rid of. If
you catch them early, the dog can
help determine the scope,” Carol
Cobine said.
“This was the fi rst time constructing
an event rather than
a scene like a grocery store,”
Scroggins said. “It came with a
whole new set of challenges.”
Guests can also visit “Destination
Indiana, ” the “W. Brooks
Fortune History Lab ” and the
“Cole Porter Room. ” All are exhibits
designed to allow visitors
to literally experience Indiana
history through high technology
and interactivity .
Many IU students will be experiencing the nightlife during
this spring break. Here’s a look at different laws for bar access
in popular spring break destinations.
Florida
Many students
will be hitting Miami
or Panama City . Some
clubs will allow those 18
or older inside at night.
Usually they’ll have a
sign reading something
like “18 to enter, 21 to
party. ” You still can’t
buy alcoholic drinks.
If you are serving as
designated driver for
your group of 21 and
older friends, many
clubs will give you free
nonalcoholic drinks .
Passing the bar
Texas
This state will be
warm and sunny as
well and might be a
great getaway for
some students. Like
Florida, it depends
on the bar . Some will
allow people 18 and
older in , but many will
not take a chance on a
minor sneaking liquor.
However, if you’re with
a group of friends that
are 21 and older, your
chances improve .
Indiana
It’s probably not
a big spring break
destination, but some
of us are stuck here. As
you all probably know, in
Indiana you have to be
21 to get into the bars
or buy alcohol. Sorry
guys, you’ll need to fi nd
another way to stay
warm.
IDS FILE PHOTO
Illinois
Though it will be
colder there than in
southern Indiana , some
of us might head to
Chicago for our break.
Again, it is up to the
bar’s discretion whether
or not to let minors in .
Most, however, will let in
people 18 and older, but
they’ll mark their hands
so the bartenders know
not to serve them .

a source for the scent.
After a few hours of sleep,
Corbin saw smoke and fl ames
and ran into his parents’ bedroom
to wake them up.
“If it wasn’t for him, we’d
all be dead,” Natasha said.
An electrical fi re from a
wire behind a wall connecting
the living room, dining room
and kitchen that had been smoldering
for hours had burned
through and begun to devour
the four-bedroom house.
Natasha said she immediately
dialed 911 while Brandon attempted
to put out the fi re on
his own.
“I just grabbed the kids, a
picture of the family and ran to
the neighbors,” Natasha said.
The cost of damages are
still unknown because the Eggers
were not the offi cial owners;
they were renting to own the
house. Natasha said what was
not completely destroyed by the
fi re has smoke or water damage.
Among other issues, fl oorboards
have buckled, the ceiling
has holes in it from efforts
to put out the fi re, and all their
major appliances are unusable.
To add to their fi nancial problems,
on Tuesday the fuel pump
of their 2003 Grand Am broke
while they were on the way to
pick up Corbin from school.
The repairs cost $315 , and
the car is the family’s only
source of transportation.
“It was lucky that it broke
right in front of a mechanic’s
house,” Natasha said.
Because both Natasha and
Brandon are currently unemployed,
they do not have the
funds to quickly fi x the house
or pay for their hotel room.
Natasha said she had planned to
look for jobs later in the week
once they were settled in, but
since the fi re she hasn’t had the
time to try. Before becoming a
homemaker she was a certifi ed
nurse’s assistant, and she said
she’d like to get back to that
work if possible.
The local Red Cross paid for
the family to stay in a two-bed
room at the Patriot Inn in nearby
Spencer, Ind ., for several
nights, Natasha said.
“We actually just had someone
donate enough money to
pay for another few nights today,”
Natasha said.
However, without that funding,
the family’s other option
is to live in an unheated
RV donated by a local preacher.
It is parked next to their
charred home.
As of now, they have nowhere
to wash their clothes.
Despite their struggles, the
Eggers said they plan to move
back into the house when it
is fi xed.

“We want to stay,” Natasha
said. “It was a life lesson, and
we’re not going to run from it.”
Since the fi re, the electrical
wires throughout the house
have been redone by a professional
electrician, which cost
the family an additional $1,800 .
Brandon said he is willing to
do any sort of labor to earn money
for repairs and bills. He said
he has experience with masonry
and electrical work, though he
is willing to mow lawns or do
any other work needed.
They set up donation cans at
several gas stations in the area,
including the Clay City County
Junction , Marathon gas stations
and the Spencer Circle K . Natasha
said they received a $25
check in one of the cans.
But they have to take the
cans down soon. They were
only allowed to keep them there
for a few days .
A Bloomington bank, The
Peoples State Bank , is also
helping the family raise funds.
Brandon said Red Cross volunteers
urged him to open a local
bank account where people
could donate funds for his
family . These donations can
be made online or at any of
the bank’s fi ve locations in
Bloomington.
“We’re used to helping other
people, not people helping us.

face,” Natasha said.

half as the Hoosiers tried to

that span . “We take them with no
hesitation at all.”
IU all but neutralized PSU’s
leading scorer Talor Battle , holding
the senior guard to 3-of-12
shooting with four turnovers .
Penn State shot worse as a team
from the fi eld than IU, but the Nittany
Lions tallied 11 offensive rebounds
to IU’s four , capitalizing
with 17 second-chance points .
“I think we had a lot of mental
lapses on the rebounding end,”
Watford said. “A couple times we
didn’t hit guys and a couple times
tipped a couple balls out and got
long rebounds. It was a battle all
game, and they unfortunately won
the rebounds.”
Watford matched Brooks with
15 points to lead the team , but
he was only able to grab four rebounds
. Freshman guard Victor
Oladipo , who gave the team an
early spark off the bench, led the
team with six boards .
For IU, the season ends on yet
another bitter note. The Hoosiers
lost their last nine games to close
this year , and they lost 12 of their
last 13 games last season and their
last 10 games two years ago .
IU fi nished with just two more
victories than last season and one
less win in the Big Ten . One area
of improvement Crean said was
emphasized in offseason — rebounding
— bit the team Thursday
as it had all season. IU won
just two games when it lost the rebounding
battle this year .
But Crean said some of the improvements
the team made from
year-to-year aren’t as easily seen
on the court, but he’s seen them in
his time around the team.
“I’m not sure a year ago guys
would have understood playing
through some of the pain that
they played through this year,” he
said. “And I’m proud that they’ve
learned how to do that, and hopefully
that’s going to help them
down the road.”

IU policy doesn’t allow the

This includes the ledgers of

Steve Veldkamp said, “All
student government records are
open to the public.”
But when the IDS requested
the 2010-11 ledger last month,
IUSA Treasurer Sierra Hsieh said
she must work with IU Legal,
which concluded that some parts
of the documents couldn’t be disclosed
due to restrictions in the
Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act.

sets requirements and guidelines
for releasing student records and

“My family has bad credit,”

order 30 days after the alleged
incident, the student fi rst went to
Middle Way House , which assists
victims of domestic violence.
According to court records, the
woman was accompanied by two
friends. Staffers at the Middle
Way house told the student to go
to the emergency room.
The source said records at
Middle Way House describe two
friends carrying the student, but at
the hospital, she had no one carry
her according to hospital records.
The student said she received a
wheelchair, but the hospital said
she declined the wheelchair and
left under her own power, according
to court documents.
According to the source,
the student refused to have
of money, how it’s distributed, its
amount and when it’s mailed.
The 2010-11 ledger did not
list which students were reimbursed,
nor which companies received
checks. IUSA budgets
show what category of money
is being spent, but not where the
money ends up.
Beth Cate, IU’s associate general
counsel, said IU can’t release
records it believes could be used
to identify a student.
According to the state’s Access
to Public Records Act, documents
like these should be open
record, but the statute also states
releases can’t violate federal law
such as FERPA.
The IUSA documents not being
released include some related
to the GPS bus tracking debate,
such as disclosures of confl ict of
interest or commitment.
This means any student organization,
including IUSA, could
be using money without disclosing
the details to the public.
“I have at least another two
years until I graduate,” Jones
said. “I’m scared that what it
would come down to is I would
have to drop out and work full
time for a while.”
Maralee Clayton , associate director
of fi nancial aid at BSU said
the Federal Pell Grant is one of
the most important programs to
help the neediest students at most
universities.
Clayton said almost 6,000
students at BSU receive the Pell
Grant, but the cut will probably
force a majority of the students to
rely more on student loans.
Clayton said she is waiting
anxiously to fi nd out from the
federal government what kind of
cuts students can expect so that
she can prepare to help them.
“I want to tell all students to
make sure they follow through
and get their applications in on
time,” Clayton said. “That way,
they can secure money from
other sources as needed.”

Spring break brings 8 straight contests for Hoosier squad
BY KEVIN BOWEN
kdbowen@indiana.edu
As many IU students head to
Florida next week for no work and
all play, the baseball team will be
playing a rigourous schedule with
eight games in eight days beginning
Saturday .
IU coach Tracy Smith’s squad
sits at 7-4 heading into the eightgame
stretch and will play seven
northern teams, with Pittsburgh
made within the roster this year,
it’d be even better next year.
Then, this team was still getting
put together. The foundation
was still visible, and some
of the construction parts (in the
form of 4- and 5-star recruits)
weren’t going to move in until
the next few years.
So with missing parts and
players that were only going to
get better in the ensuing years,
anything completed this season
would be improved upon in
the next.
But now, the third year of
IU coach Tom Crean’s foundation
building saw a few cracks.
Maybe more than a few.
Before anyone jumps to say
there were some unforeseen circumstances,
I’ll say it. Some of
those cracks were not so much
the fault of anyone. Guy-Marc
Michel , the 7-foot mystery , was
supposed to help out in the desperately-need-help
post position.
Sophomore guard Maurice
Creek never got healthy. There
were other injuries.
Without those setbacks (and
being the only team from a BCS
conference .
With no off-days on the trip ,
Smith will rely on the depth of his
pitching staff.
On Wednesday, seven IU pitchers
took the mound against Indiana

them got more than one inning
of work .
The bullpen-type sessions
those pitchers threw against the
Sycamores is a precursor for what

maybe a couple more games.
Does a couple more wins really
save the season?
Second, there was — believe
it or not — some improvement.
This team got blown out by Big
Ten teams on a consistent basis
the past two seasons. That
didn’t happen this year. Thursday’s
close contest was a classic
example. Those near-wins
(or close losses) amount to, I
guess, moral victories.
After the game, Crean and
the players talked about the improvement,
if unseen in wins,
that had happened this season.
It came from the team’s closeness,
they said.
“We grew together as teammates,”
IU sophomore Christian
Watford said. “We’re teammates
on and off the courts.
That’s one of the great things
we have with each other.”

doing that, this team is still

Smith said he will need out of
them in Florida.
“What you try to do is, your
best pitchers, you would like to
get maximum starts out of them
down there,” Smith said. “We
will try and keep them on a weekend
rotation, and this is a chance
for our young guys who maybe
haven’t gotten chances up
to this point who need to step
up and take advantage of their
opportunity.”

venue, same story.
Similar to IU’s loss to Penn
State in December at Assembly

Ryan Halstead could become
the Hoosiers’ closer.
Junior Blake Monar is the only
Hoosier to start a game in all three
weekend series so far this year , and
IU has won in each of his outings .
“I still don’t think we have
seen the best of Blake yet, but he
has still been plenty good enough
ups tonight — the (D.J.) Jackson
match-up and the Brooks
match-up,” IU coach Tom Crean
said. “And that’s why we
had to mix defenses more. It got
us in rotation.
“There were a couple of
times we just didn’t block out
very well. When everything
is all said and done, the rebounding
I think was the difference
in the game. And a lot
of that, like I said, is because of
the rotations.”
Most of the focus for IU
entering the matchup was on
guard Talor Battle and for good
reason. The senior was recently
named All-Big Ten First Team
after leading Penn State in scoring
with 20.4 points per game .
That plan worked for IU, as
tough defense — in particular
senior guard Jeremiah Rivers
— forced Battle into contested
shots from the get-go. He was
1-of-6 shooting from the fi eld
at halftime and ended with only
13 total points .
“I just wanted him to not
have confi dence around me,”
Rivers said. “Every time he was
around me, I didn’t want him to
to keep us in games,” Smith said.
“It’s a compliment to him when
he gives up two runs and his head
coach says he still isn’t sharp.”
Last year the Hoosiers captured
fi ve of seven on their spring
break trip . When the Hoosiers return
from Florida, they will have
a weekend series with Evansville
before embarking on the Big Ten
schedule .
One key the Hoosiers will
focus on in the Sunshine State is
feel like he could just score,
and I don’t think he did. I just
kept hacking at the ball, getting
in him, and was able to do
a pretty good job on him.”
IU did what it could to minimize
the damage in the fi rst
20 minutes. It went into halftime
with the same amount of
rebounds as the Nittany Lions
and had a two-point advantage
in the paint.
The second half, though,
brought a different result.
Brooks was fed the ball on
a majority of offensive possessions
for Penn State, and
he didn’t disappoint. The senior
scored at will in the second
half, fi nishing 5-of-7 from the
fi eld in that period.
Some of that can be traced
back to poor defending from
freshman forward Will Sheehey
, who was often found on
Brooks down the stretch.
“Our bigs got into foul trouble
early, and that hurt us on the
block,” Sheehey said. “There
were times, myself personally,
I just played horrible defense.”

sustaining a winning streak. In the
last two weekend series, IU has
failed to win on the fi nal day of the
road trip .
“We would like to be a little
more consistent on Sundays,” senior
Wes Wilson said. “For whatever
reason we get two wins and
can’t come out with a third one. I
think spring break is a chance for
everybody to get a lot of reps and
getting comfortable before heading
into Big Ten play.”

WARHOL HAPPENINGS INVADE
ART MUSEUM
BY CORRINE LAMBERT
corlambe@indiana.edu
Campbell’s soup cans have
invaded the IU Art Museum .
Delicately placed in the lobby
with red daisies on top, the cans
welcomed patrons to the fi rst of
three Warhol Happenings .
Artist Andy Warhol is famously
known for this Pop art
paintings of classic pop culture
icons, such as Marilyn Monroe
and the Coca-Cola bottle.
The events are designed in
conjunction with the museum’s
spring guest exhibition, “Shot by
Warhol.”
Thursday’s affair was designed
to center around music
and featured local band,
Tammar .
Frontman Dave Walter said
he hopped on the opportunity to
perform at the IU Art museum
because he used to work there.
“I used to sing during my
midnight shift,” Walter said.
“The acoustics are fantastic
in here.”
Walter also said Tammar’s
choice to cover Velvet Underground
songs during its fi rst
set seemed only fi tting because
Warhol used to manage the band.
As Tammar began to play,
Velvet Underground’s lyrics
were projected behind the stage
in the Thomas A. Solley Atrium .
Walter sang the lyrics that
were also jotted down in his
journal, which he held.
While listening to the concert,
audience members had the
opportunity to tour the gallery.
Jacobs project aid students with careers
BY BRITTANY TEMPEST
britempe@indiana.edu
The IU Jacobs School of Music
is working with music career
specialist and author Angela
Beeching and the Kelley School
of Business’ Johnson Center for
Entrepreneurship and Innovation
on a revolutionary studentdriven
program to assist music
students in entrepreneurship and
career development .
Beeching, from Boston , is
the project leader and is advising
students through the
program.
“This whole thing was started
by the Jacobs School inviting
in guest speakers to talk
about careers in music and entrepreneurship,”
Beeching said.
“I was one of them.”
The program consists of four
to six workshops and several advising
sessions to help students
develop career skills.
“This is really about building
a framework for the future,”
Beeching said. “It’s more of a
pilot program.
“The program focuses on
what students want to learn and
uses surveys to determine which
workshops will be available and
plays a part in which speakers
are selected.”
Beeching said she thinks the
program is great for giving student
options.
“This has been great. We’re
all about showing the students
what their options are for careers
and in entrepreneurship,”
she said. “I’ve been having a
blast with it.”
The program is open to all
ages and has seen everyone from
freshmen to doctorate students.
Sophomore music education
major and fl utist Lauren Raby
said she fi nds the preparation to
be a helpful tool, especially for
performance majors.
“Jacobs is making us the best
musicians possible and Project
Jumpstart is helping with
the business aspects of getting a
job,” Raby said.
Beeching said Project Jumpstart
is different from entrepreneurial
programs at other
schools.
“What’s so important about
this program and what sets it
apart from other schools is the
fact that it’s really student-driven,”
Beeching said. “There are
four student leaders involved in
this project.”
The student leaders are senior
Clair Studdard , who is an
oboe player working toward a
bachelor’s degree in music performance
with an outside fi eld
in business and a minor in psychology
; Angela Kloc , a second
year graduate vocal student ;
Marie-Elise McNeeley , who is
pursuing a master of music degree
in early music as a student
of Stanley Ritchie .
Also a student leader is Peter
Thoresen , who recently completed
his coursework toward
the doctor of music degree in
voice and vocal literature and
is a graduate team leader , according
to the Jacobs School of
Music website.
Alain Barker , director of
marketing and publicity for the
Jacobs School of Music, completes
the team as the project
mentor .
Beeching and this team meet
via Skype once a week.
Beeching is here for eight
weeks total and often only one
week at a time.
She said she is incredibly
dedicated to Project Jumpstart
and emphasizes the importance
of the students.
“Without the students, this
wouldn’t be happening at all,”
Beeching said. “It’s really all
about the students.”
Jacobs professor awarded Lifetime Achievement for his music legacy
BY CELIA GRUNDMAN

Distinguished professor of piano
at the Jacobs School of Music
Menahem Pressler recently won
the Lifetime Achievement Award
for the 2011 International Classical
Music Awards .
“I am thrilled that I am remembered
and not forgotten,”
Pressler said. “My activities

The judges for the prestigious

CHET STRANGE | IDS
Tammar performs Velvet Underground songs Thursday at the IU Art Museum as part of the “Shot By Warhol”
art exhibit. The exhibition is putting on display more than 150 photographs from the Andy Warhol Photographic
Legacy Program.
The IU Art Museum gallery
features more than 150 of Warhol’s
original photographs.
Special event coordinator
Madeline Bornstein said the
laid-back atmosphere of the exhibit
is the most interesting part.
“The exhibit is set up to look
like The Factory . It’s really casual
and fun,” Bornstein said.
Warhol’s original Factory
was located in Manhattan and
was the hangout for artsy types
during the 1960s .
selecting the winners, Pressler
said.
For Alexander Kerr , professor
of violin , Pressler winning the
lifetime achievement award came
as no surprise.
“It’s well-deserved,” Kerr said.
“He’s literally a living legend and
one of the most important musicians
in the world.”
Pressler began studying violin
at age 5 , and his brother took piano
lessons , “but he was tired, so
I would take the lesson instead,”
Pressler said.
Thus, he learned both instruments
until he had to select one
Many of Thursday’s patrons
were out to support Tammar and
view the exhibit.
However IU alumna Lea
Woodward said it was the familiarity
of Warhol’s name that ultimately
drew her to the event.
“I don’t really come to the art
museum that often, but I think
everyone has at least heard of
Andy Warhol,” Woodward said.
“And the fact that his work is being
displayed so close to home
was more than enough reason to
upon entering school .
He chose piano .
“Piano seems to be everything,
a whole symphony orchestra,”
Pressler said. “It has the richest
repertoire.”
He recently returned from Munich
where he played with the Ebene
Quartet , a group of talented
young musicians whose show
sold out.
Traveling all across the world
to perform and teach, Pressler said
he teaches “like mad when I come
home.”
“Teaching is that which
gratifi es the most deeply,”
check it out.”
The next two Thursdays will
feature different events at the
museum. Both will be based on
Warhol’s exhibit.
A screening of “I Shot Andy
Warhol” will be shown March
24 as part of the movie night.
March 31 will be in the theme
of Warhol’s famed Factory parties
. Both events are free.
Guests will also be offered
special tours of the
exhibition.
Pressler said.
On Monday, Pressler left for
California ; on Tuesday, he taught
and performed at the San Francisco
Conservatory.
Later this month , he will be
traveling to Vancouver and then
to Paris.
On April 6 , he will attend
the ceremony for his Lifetime
Achievement award in Tampere,
Finland .
“He’s amazing. He has the
knowledge of 70 years and the
energy level of a 20-year-old,”
Kerr said.
Michael McQuay , a doctoral
student and assistant of Pressler ,
said Pressler has an “insane dedication
to his students and teaching
career.”
McQuay said he believes
Pressler has something most performers
with similar accomplishments
do not: He gives back to his
students as an educator.
If he has a three-day break during

Local band ready
for Bloomington
IU freshmen search for name, place
in Bloomington’s local music scene
BY KELSEY COLLISI
kcollisi@indiana.edu
Accompanied by a slide guitar
and a banjo, IU freshman Peter
Oren introduced his new band
as “Lil’ Wayne, Rick Ross and
Nicki Minaj” because the band
has yet to settle on a name. However,
the audience said he sounded
a little less Weezy and a little
more Johnny Cash with his highstrapped
acoustic guitar and deep
voice.
Along with freshmen Quintin
Caldwell and Terry Neumann ,
Oren is in the process of what
many people just talk about doing:
starting a band. Oren said
they have yet to defi ne their
sound.
“We’re new to everything,”
Oren said. “And though I get a
little nervous at times, I know
this is what I enjoy doing.”
Though still in the early stages,
the band already played its
fi rst show this past week at The
Bishop and is getting feedback.
“I didn’t know what to expect
when they came on stage,” sophomore
attendee Rachel Kolavo
said. “The lead singer looked
nervous, but when he started to
sing, I was taken aback with his
voice and how great it really was.
You can tell that Johnny Cash
had to be an infl uence.”
Though many had the same
response as Kolavo, Oren said
when friend Aaron Frazer of The
Natives asked him on a scale
of one to 10 how much Johnny
Cash infl uenced him, he had to
reply with only a three.
“I’m more inspired by Bill
Callahan in Smog or Wilco ,”
Oren said. “But we’re a baby
band, we’re still defi ning a
sound, and we still don’t even
have a name.”
Currently the band is still torn
in its initial phase of selecting a
name. Though CASO is what the
band has been terming itself recently,
Roman Nose and Blue
Gums are still on the table. Oren
and Caldwell said they hope to
have a name with signifi cance,
and their fi nal decision needs to
be permanent. Neumann said he
agreed and said the name is one
of the most important aspects in
the process of becoming a band.
“The name is incredibly important
because it’s what helps
people recognize you as a band,”
Neumann said.
Though Neumann is new to
the country/folk sound , he played
in a British indie-rock band when
he lived in England , which he
said he believes has given him a
lot of experience.
“When we decided to play
a show with only being together
for a few months, I was completely
surprised,” Neumann
said. “In my previous band it
took us almost a year to put together
a solid enough set to play
a venue.”
Neumann said that the process
of starting a band is somewhat
of a journey, from collaborating
styles, to writing, to
gaining confi dence and practicing
to fi nally performing. However,
with the fi rst show out of
the way, CASO has already decided
to start booking more
shows and is looking to start recording
an EP to be fi nished by
the latter part of the semester.
“I was lucky to meet Aaron,
who helped me to record
solo vocals already and invited
us to open for his band The Natives,”
Oren said. “But we hope
to record as a group now and
just start focusing on good music
writing.”
As an English major , Oren
said he doesn’t see himself as an
extremely knowledgeable musician
but wants to focus his songs
on the lyrics instead.
“I want the music to be simplistic,
to really lay an emphasis
on the lyrics which I hope will
be a little more complex,” Oren
said. “I am interested in a lot of
social and environmental issues
that kind of theme to a more melancholy
sound.”
Oren said though he wants
to maintain a simplistic sound,
he would like to see the band
add another guitar or possibly a
drummer with a bass and snare
drum and hat symbol to make the
music more rhythm-based.
“I think the addition of drums
will fi ll in that gap you get with
having three string instruments
rather nicely,” Caldwell said.
The band has begun to make
an impression on the local music
scene. Kolavo said she looks forward
to seeing them develop as
a band.
“Their sound was calming,
and the crowd seemed to fall
quiet to listen intently to their
songs,” Kolavo said. “The guys
seemed to fi t in nicely with the
Americana lineup, and I think
people liked them for what
they were.”
Oren said he doesn’t really
know what is to come for the
band but said he loves to sing and
write, so he’ll continue to do so.
“I’ve never played in a band
before so I’m really looking for
people to tell us how they feel
about our sound,” Oren said.
“Otherwise, I guess we’ll just
have to see what happens after
spring break.”
the world and have “won competitions
and made records. They are
teachers and they are respected.”
Another achievement of his is
the acclaimed Beaux Arts Trio , of
which he was a co-founder and
pianist .
The group offi cially split after
the 2007-08 season.
Pressler said the trio is special
for existing for more than 50 years
performing at thousands of concerts.
Even when Pressler broke
his ribs, he still continued to play
10 concerts in Australia.
“I never missed one concert,”
Pressler said.

GET FUZZY DARBY CONLEY
KINSEY CONFIDENTIAL THE KINSEY INSTITUTE
Question: I have a friend who
is having some issues with her exboyfriend,
and made a comment to
me about how she was wondering if
perhaps she was homosexual because
she had never really been attracted to
very many of her past boyfriends, but
realized that she wasn’t attracted to
girls, either. I’m familiar with the general
concept of asexuality, but I wasn’t able
to fi nd much information online. How
does a person know whether or not
they’re asexual, and can an asexual
person have romantic relationships
with other people?
Answer: These are great
questions for anyone – including
scientists who study sexuality.
The truth is that researchers are
only beginning to understand the
complexities of sexual orientation,
and we know strikingly little about
asexuality.
In biology, the term “asexuality”
typically refers to organisms that
reproduce without having sex (e.g., note
the popular “I wish my homework was
asexual so it would do itself” Facebook
group). When it comes to human
sexuality, however, researchers tend
to use the term “asexual” to describe
individuals who do not experience
sexual attraction.
These individuals may either
experience no sexual attraction, or else
very low levels of sexual attraction
when compared to most other people.
There may be hormonal explanations
for this lack of sexual attraction, but it
is likely more complex and there may be
several causes of asexuality. Similarly,
we do not fully understand why some
heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual
individuals have higher or lower sex
drives than their friends or partners.
It is important to point out that
asexuality typically describes a lack of
Kinsey Confi dential

Sexuality Information Service for
Students (KISISS) at IU. Visit the web
site at kinseyconfi dential.org or e-mail
them at kisiss@indiana.edu.
sexual attraction and that this is stable
and usually lifelong – in other words,
someone who identifi es as “asexual”
typically reports that they have never
(or very rarely) experienced sexual
attraction. This is different than people
who, for example, used to feel sexually
attracted to other people but now
no longer do – perhaps because of a
medical condition, sexual or hormonal
side effects from medications, or a
problematic relationship.
While most people will experience
periods of low sexual interest, desire
or attraction at some point in their
lives, few people (probably less than
5% of the population) would say that
they have never experienced sexual
attraction. However, given the lack
of rigorous research in this area it is
impossible to say with any certainty
how common the experience of
asexuality may be.
Because researchers tend to
describe asexuality as not experiencing
sexual attraction, there is no “test” to
know whether or not you are asexual;
you simply feel this way or you do not.
As for relationships, research suggests
that asexual individuals can and do
form intimate, romantic relationships.
Sometimes these relationships even
involve sex. If that surprises you,
consider the fact that many people who
consider themselves to be heterosexual,
homosexual or bisexual occasionally
agree to have sex with their partner
when they do not want to.
People willingly have sex for many
reasons other than feeling sexual
attraction – for example, to be nice to
their partner, to “reward” their partner
for an act of kindness or romance, to
stop their partner from nagging, to
relieve stress or in order to procreate
(have children).
It is therefore not that surprising
that some asexual people may have
sex, even if they do not feel – or only
rarely feel – sexually attracted to their
partner. That said, asexual individuals
may be less likely to form romantic
relationships than others. What some
asexual individuals stress, however, is
that their lack of sexual attraction is not
necessarily distressing or problematic
for them, and that they can live full,
satisfying and happy lives. Further, they
have often learned to create intimate
bonds with people in ways that do
not require sexual sharing – which is
probably a skill that most people could
benefi t from developing.
As for whether your friend is
homosexual or asexual or heterosexual
or whatever else, it is impossible for
us to say. However, it is completely
normal for young people to question
issues related to their sexuality and she
doesn’t have to label her sexual identity
now or ever unless she wants to. Some
people begin feeling sexual attraction
later in life compared to their peers.
Others never feel sexual attraction to
others, or less often do.
It doesn’t have to be a “problem”
but if it feels like a problem either
now or in the future (possibly in the
context of a romantic relationship),
she might fi nd it useful to speak with
a sex therapist (www.aasect.org) for
information or support. She can also
connect online with others through
the Asexuality Visibility and Education
Network (AVEN; www.asexuality.org),
which also offers information to the
general public.

SOFTBALL
Hoosiers take strong
start to Oklahoma
The IU softball team will look to
continue its winning ways when it
travels to Norman, Okla. , to play in
the Oklahoma Spring Festival . The
Hoosiers will open the tournament
Saturday with games against
Missouri State and host school, No.
10 Oklahoma .
The Hoosiers’ strong pitching
has been one of the biggest reasons
behind their 10-8 start to the
season, and sophomore pitcher
Jessica Dobson said she thought
that senior Morgan Melloh has
been the biggest reason for the
outstanding pitching.
“I think Morgan is doing a great
job jumping ahead of the batters,”
Dobson said. “If you look at it, she
has two strikes on all batters, which
defi nitely puts them back on their
heels.”
Freshman Ashley Warrum said
the Hoosiers need to get better at
getting hits at the right time.
“Everybody is doing a good job
getting hits, it’s just when we get
the hits,” Warrum said. “We just
need to really focus on getting the
hits when people are on base.”

Zone meet to carry
NCAA Championship
implications
Despite lacking many seniors,
the IU diving team has made do
with what it has. It has captured the
women’s and combined team titles
at U.S. Diving Winter Nationals and
has performed in the top two at
both Big Ten Championships .
This weekend , the divers travel
to Columbus, Ohio , to continue their
season at the Zone Diving Meet .
The meet represents a chance
for divers to qualify for the NCAA
Championship .
IU coach Jeff Huber and his
squad have strived all year to put
together consistent efforts in each
meet, and this is no different.
“For us, that’s what we hope to
put together — our most consistent
list, because at that meet it’s just
going to be consistency,” he said.
Multiple divers have struggled
with injury leading up to the meet.

Senior Santiago Gruter prepares to return the ball during the Hoosiers’ 6-1 win against Wright State on March 6 at the IU Tennis Center.
WATER POLO
Success based on defense
Defense wins championships.
The IU water polo team’s fi ve-game
winning streak is predicated largely
on defense, as the Hoosiers have
allowed 4.8 goals per game in their
past fi ve matches . They look to
take their strong defense into this
weekend’s Aztec Invitational in San
Diego.
The Hoosiers’ increased
success on the defensive end of
the pool comes from dictating how
opponents run their offense, IU
coach Barry King said.
“We’re controlling the action
at the center better than we had
previously,” King said. “It’s tougher
for the opposing offenses to run
their offense through the middle.
The less time they’re running their
offense through the middle, the
more time we’re allowed to play
defense further away from the cage.
That’s an advantage because they’re
shooting from further away and our

King said controlling the middle

“It shortens the pool for us

they’ve got the players to make the
jump, so they’re a dangerous team,”
Bloemendaal said.
IU junior Stephen Vogl said it
would be important for the Hoosiers
to properly channel their energy in
what is expected to be an intense
match.
“There’s obviously some sort
of added pressure to the match,”
Vogl said. “But if you look at it in
a positive sort of way, that’s only
going to help you play better.”
Even though IU’s roster doesn’t
contain any players from Big Ten
territory , Bloemendaal said his
players understand the signifi cance
of this match.
“It will be like no other match
we play throughout the year.
Regardless if a player’s ever played
in it or not, they’re going to feel
something different in that match,”
Bloemendaal said. “There’s a
different level of intensity, and they
know that everybody’s looking at
that match.”

IU sophomore forward Christian
Watford , who fi nished with
15 points on the night, said the
loss was based on a lack of
toughness on the glass.
“We had a lot of mental lapses
on the rebounding end,” Watford
said. “A couple times we
didn’t hit guys and a couple
times tipped a couple balls out
and got long rebounds. It was a
battle all game, and they unfortunately
won the rebounds.”

a basketball team. The Big Ten
Tournament mandates 30 minutes
of time for media in the
locker room, and as soon as I
walked in, I could just feel the
disappointment in the players.
There was nothing pleasant
about talking to the visibly despondent
Hoosiers.
These guys are good people,
and they always talk about good
friends.
The maddening part then —
maybe for players, coaches and
fans alike — is that the closeness
didn’t translate to success
on the court.
And why that closeness
didn’t translate is where the
cracks began to form. There
were issues of accountability,
toughness and leadership —
mental aspects that create a giant
divide between mediocrity
and success.
Mental issues may not be
easy to solve, either. Sometimes
players have those intangibles.
Others don’t and may never
learn them.
So that’s where IU is. It fi nished
with its third consecutive
20-loss season and posted a
3-19 record since mid-
December .
The season was not as forgettable
as it should have been.
The foundation now has some
cracks to repair before the
sleek, shining new parts can be
built.

Grapplers to wrestle in NCAAs
BY MAX MCCOMBS

Last season, junior Matt
Powless got his fi rst taste of
the NCAA wrestling tournament.
This year he returns to
the tournament familiar with
the atmosphere and with a more
ambitious goal.
“Last year I made it to nationals,
and that was my goal,” Powless
said. “Once I did, I don’t
want to say I didn’t care, but I was
defi nitely happy already with my
season. I went out there and wrestled,
but I don’t think I fully committed
myself the way I should
have to winning those matches.
I was already happy with myself.
Going there this year with it not
being a surprise but an expectation
has me a little more driven.”
IU will send four wrestlers
to Philadelphia for the NCAA
Championships on March 17-
19 . Joining Powless, who wrestles
in the 197-pound weight
class , are seniors Kurt Kinser at
149 pounds and Paul Young at
157 pounds and graduate student
Ricky Alcala at heavyweight .
“Every one of these guys
has been to nationals before,”
IU coach Duane Goldman said.
“They have an idea of what
they’re stepping into. They just
need to go in there and be confi
dent and not look ahead. It’s a
tough tournament.”
While each of the IU qualifi
ers has been to the tournament
before, last year Kinser and
Young each qualifi ed for different
weight classes, 157 pounds and
165 pounds , respectively. Alcala
wrestled for a different school,
California-Davis .
Kinser, Young and Powless
clinched their berths in the Big
Ten Tournament last weekend .
Alcala suffered a pair of upset
losses and ultimately placed seventh
, not high enough for an automatic
qualifi er spot . However,
when wildcards were announced
Wednesday , Alcala made the
fi eld .
“Ricky had a little bit of a
tough go,” Goldman said. “He
appears to be back on track. He
wrestled really well in his last
match. We were pretty sure that
he was going to get picked up (as
a wildcard).”
Released along with the wildcard
selections were the brackets
for the tournament revealing both
the seeds at each weight class and
fi rst-round matchups . Kinser will
wrestle Missouri’s Kyle Bradley
, who he has defeated this season,
in the opening round. Young
will face Pittsburgh’s Donnie
Tasser while Powless will meet
LJ Helbig of Wyoming . Alcala
will wrestle Spencer Myers of
Maryland .
“I’m pretty familiar with
all their opponents,” Goldman
said. “I think for the most part
we avoided some seeds. I think
they all have good fi rst-round
matchups, ones they all have
good shots of winning. They’re
feeling good.”
Practices leading up to nationals
will largely be geared toward
preparing for fi rst-round opponents,
as the wrestlers have control
over little else, a lesson Powless
has learned both from IU’s
All-American coaches and his
own experience last year.
“You always want to say
you’re taking it one match at a
time, but in the back of their head,
everyone is thinking, ‘If I win
this match I have so-and-so, if I
lose I have so-and-so,’” Powless
said. “I did that last year. I lost
on the fi rst round, and then in the
wrestlebacks I didn’t get who I
thought I would get because there
was another upset, so I ended up
wrestling someone and things
didn’t work out for me. This year
I’m defi nitely going to take it one
match at a time and only worry
about that fi rst match.”
TRACK AND FIELD
Helmer not fazed by expectations for IU squad
BY CHRISTOPHER WEBB

IU coach Ron Helmer isn’t
going to let the No. 6 IU track
and fi eld team’s success overhype
its expectations.
Going into the NCAA Indoor
Championships Friday in Texas ,
IU brings three students who recently
earned Great Lakes Athlete
of the Year honors, in addition
to Helmer, who was named
Great Lakes Coach of the Year
by the United States Track and
Field and Cross Country Coaches
Association .
He said his team must compete
with realistic results in mind.
“The best way to succeed is to
lower expectations,” Helmer said
of his team. “They need to understand
that they don’t have to
perform a superhuman feat.”
Although IU sophomore
Andy Bayer , senior Faith Sherrill
and junior Derek Drouin might
not put up superhuman numbers,
they have excelled this season
by putting up numbers that have
helped give the team a top-10
ranking throughout the season .

Sherrill said she was pressured
to do better this season after
winning All-American honors
last year , as well as winning her
event in the shot put at the Big
Ten championships in Lafayette.
While Sherrill tries to repeat
her success this year, Bayer said
he is just coming into his own.
“After cross country season
I just put into my mind what I
needed to do this year,” said Bayer,
who was named the men’s Big
Ten Track Athlete of the Year.
“The Big Ten meets were helpful
in letting me know what to expect
from myself.”
Although the expectations
for Bayer were slowly creeping
over the horizon at the Gladstein
Fieldhouse , Helmer said Bayer’s
progression since high school
was staggering.
“Bayer wasn’t very good in
high school,” Helmer said. “He
didn’t become the whole package
until he started doing well on
the track. And the kid is so unassuming,
and I love it because
there is nothing like an athlete
accepting being great and then
doing great.”

IU boasts nation’s
No. 6 recruiting
class for 2011 season
BY DANIEL ALLAR
dallar@indiana.edu
The IU women’s tennis team
has signed fi ve players to land the
No. 6 recruiting class in 2011 , according
to the Tennis Recruiting
Network.
The recruiting service, which
ranks players on a fi ve-star scale,
lists Ariel Beckerman as a fourstar
prospect and the Hoosiers’
other recruits as fi ve-star players.
Carolyn Chupa , ranked No.
22 in the class , is the top prospect,
and the other fi ve-star signees —
Alecia Kauss , Katie Klyczek and
Shannon Murdy — are in the
top 51 .
“It’s very unique in that next
year we’re going to have nine
players on the team and fi ve are
freshmen,” IU coach Lin Loring
said. “That’s very strange.”
The fi ve newcomers , all from
the United States , will replace
three international seniors on
a roster that currently has only
one American, freshman Kayla
Fujimoto .
Loring said his squad will not
be in a rebuilding mode.
“Normally if you lose three
seniors who are starters, you’re
going to have a rebuilding year,”
Loring said. “I don’t expect us to
drop off at all. We should end up
with even better depth than we
have this year.”
Fujimoto said she knows most
of the incoming freshman from
playing junior tournaments together,
and she even practiced with Katie
Klyczek, a Munster, Ind., native
who is coming to IU as the No. 51
prospect in 2011 .
“I’ve trained with her since
we were probably 11 or 12 so I
know her really well,” Fujimoto
said. “She’s one of my really good
friends.”
The team will be a lot different
next year, Fujimoto said, but
she said she is looking forward to
playing with the incoming class.
“I’m really excited about having
them here, knowing them from
juniors and stuff,” Fujimoto said.
“It will be a lot different dynamic
because there will be a lot more
Americans than international, but I
think the team’s mostly pretty excited
that they’re coming.”
This season’s team, meanwhile,
is gearing up for its Big Ten opener
at 11 a.m. Saturday at rival Purdue .
“I didn’t know anything about
the Indiana-Purdue rivalry last
year before I came, but now I understand
it’s big,” sophomore Leslie
Hureau said. “We’re ready for
it, I think. We’ve been practicing
well, and we just want to go out
there and compete, do our best.”
