The Center for Student Life gears up for this
semester’s Six O’Clock Series
By stephanie bachman
Staff Writer
[email protected]
The Six O’Clock Series is returning
for another semester at Indiana University of Pennsylvania with an all-new set
of programs for students to attend.
The program has been a constant
at IUP for more than 10 years. It is arranged by the Center for Student Life
on campus. However, many of the ideas
for programs come from other people or
organizations.
Various departments or organizations will often suggest event ideas with
the Center for Student Life, which will
then organize it and make it possible.
Ideas could come from anyone, such as
the Interfaith Council. The other topics come from the staff at the Center for
Student Life.
The assistant director for the Center
for Student Life, Brianna Drylie, explained some of the benefits students
get out of attending.
“We have a great variety of pro-
grams,” Drylie said.
“There is a little bit of something for
everybody. They have an educational
value and an entertainment value. Also,
a lot of professors offer extra credit or
require attendance.”
Not all of the this semester’s programs will be held in the Hadley Union
Buiding Ohio Room. Last year, the
Center for Student Life had a program
that was so popular they had to turn
people away because the Ohio Room
filled to capacity.
In anticipation of large attendance
for certain events, the location has been
changed for a few topics. These include
“Shakespeare, Pimps, Hollywood, and
Reality TV: An Evening with Robert
Townsend and Blessing Offor” and
“Holocaust Survivor and Researcher
Discuss Implications,” which will be
held in Toretti Auditorium in the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex. Also, “Until Tuesday” will be held
in Fisher Auditorium.
Programs co-sponsored by the Afri-
2015
SCHEDULE
can American Cultural Center, such as
the Shakespeare event, are always popular.
Students might recognize the Holocaust Survivor program from last year,
which is being brought back due to high
demand.
“Until Tuesday” might also sound
familiar. It was supposed to be the final
event for the Six O’Clock Series in the
fall semester, but got cancelled due to
inclement weather.
Drylie had some advice for any students who are thinking of attending but
might be a little unsure if they should
come.
“There really is something for everyone,” Drylie said.
“They are all interesting, and they are
free. So if you are interested in coming,
you should definitely come and check it
out. We have more than enough room
to accommodate everyone. We always
have great reviews. Come check it out
for sure, and we love having people
there.”

Marine pilot from Indiana dies in

The Impact of Suicide
February 9
An Indiana University of Pennsylvania student was injured early Sunday
morning in a hit-and-run accident in
the 100 block of South 11th Street.
Alyssa Boxer (senior, music) was
walking home from her friend’s house
when she was struck by a vehicle from
behind while on the sidewalk.
“It all happened so fast … we never
heard her coming,” Boxer said in an email interview Monday. “I just remember rolling over after falling back to the
ground.”
Boxer did not lose consciousness.
Her roommate, who was walking with
her, called 911, and the Indiana Borough Police, Indiana Fire Associaiton
and Citizens Ambulance Service responded to the scene at 12:11 a.m. Sunday, according to the Indiana County
Emergency Management 911 media
report. Boxer said the driver was a
woman, and she initially stopped after
the accident.
“[She] came over to me asking if she
hit me and if I was okay,” Boxer said.
“She said that she was going to move her
car out of the middle of the road and
then took off.”
Boxer could not attest to whether
or not the driver appeared to be under
the influence of alcohol or drugs. Fortu-

nately, she and her roommate were able
to get the license plate number before
the woman sped away.
As of now, Boxer is only suffering
one significant injury from the accident.
“I’m very blessed that while I’m sore
in multiple places, the only major injury
at this point is my right shoulder,” she
said. “It’s broken, and I have some follow-up appointments to see exactly how
bad it is and what it will take to treat it.”
Boxer is thankful for her friends,
family and the IUP and Indiana communities for their timely support.
“There’s been such an outpouring of
support … and it’s helping me stay positive,” she said.
Boxer said she feels good knowing
the information of her accident is circulating throughout the news and social
media, and the police have been keeping
in touch with her.
“Last time I was spoken to,” Boxer
said, “they thought they might have an
idea of who it was, but that’s really all
I know at this point. I’m just leaving it
to the police and allowing them to do
their job.”
Police records described the vehicle
as a 1995 Chevrolet work van, and the
driver was described as a white female
between the ages of 30 and 40 with
brownish hair, wearing a black zip-up
hoodie.
Anyone with information is asked to
contact the borough police.

Marine Corps pilot and Indiana native Capt. Elizabeth Kealey, 32, died
Friday from injuries sustained in a helicopter crash earlier that day.
Capt. Kealey, along with 1st Lt.
Adam Satterfield, 25, of Oldham, Ky.,
were conducting routine flight operations at the Marine Corps Air Ground
Combat Center in California when
their helicopter crashed around 4:40
p.m., according to the Marines. The two
were the only Marines on the helicopter. Both were stationed at the Marine
Corps Air Station at Camp Pendleton,
Calif. Capt. Kealey was commissioned
in the Marine Corps on May 27, 2005.
She was deployed twice with the 13th
Marine Expeditionary Unit and and
once in Operation Enduring Freedom
in Afghanistan. She was serving as a
helicopter pilot and weapons training instructor. Her awards include
the Air Medal with three Strike/Flight
awards and the Navy and Marine Corps
Achievement Medal.
“Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers
go out to the families and loved ones of
our fallen Vipers, and we stand poised
to support them in this tragedy,” said
Lt. Col. James M. Isaacs, commanding
officer of HMLA-169, in a news release.
“Capt. Kealey and 1st Lt. Satterfield
were both outstanding Marine Corps
officers and talented helicopter pilots.”
The crash is being investigated by
military authorities.

Powerful blizzard forces shutdowns,
travel restrictions in Northeast
By Tina susman, Joseph
tanfani and molly
hennessy-fiske
Los Angeles Times
TNS
NEW YORK – Snow and powerful winds swept into the Northeast on
Monday as a storm predicted to grow
into a major blizzard prompted mass
transit shutdowns, highway closures,
thousands of airline flight cancellations
and a ban on driving in New York City
and on major roads across the region.
The storm began slowly, with light
snow falling gently in New York and
the surrounding areas. By afternoon,
winds had picked up, and the warnings
from mayors, governors and emergency
officials took on a new urgency. Metal
scraped against pavement as plows took
to the streets to push fast-accumulating
snow off to the side.
“Everything we know so far makes
clear you cannot underestimate this
storm,” New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a news briefing, which came
on the heels of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s
announcement of transit disruptions.
In addition to announcing the driving
ban in New York City, which was taking effect at 11 p.m., de Blasio said city
parks would close at 6 p.m. because of
the danger of falling trees and branches. Schools, which were open Monday,
were to be closed Tuesday.
Cuomo said the Long Island Rail
Road and Metro-North, which carry
tens of thousands of people daily between New York City and its northern
and eastern suburbs, probably would be
shut down at 11 p.m. New York City’s
subways were expected to operate on reduced schedules after about 8 p.m.
“This is going to be a blizzard. It is
a serious blizzard,” said Cuomo, who
joined the governors of New Jersey,
Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts in declaring at least partial
emergencies in their states. Some counties in Pennsylvania also were under
emergency declarations.
Across the region, all but essential
state employees were being let out of
work early to prevent them from being
on roads in the evening, when the storm
was expected to pick up strength.
“Stay home if you can,” New Jersey
Gov. Chris Christie said, or only go out
in “an absolute emergency or necessity.”
Thousands of flights into and out
of Northeastern airports, from Boston
to Philadelphia, were canceled through
Tuesday. Stores quickly sold out of items
including milk and eggs and shovels and
rock salt.
“You should have seen the shovels we
had lined up there,” said Linda Harris, a
store greeter at a Lowe’s in South Philadelphia, as she pointed to a nearly empty wall. “You got to get up early in the
morning. They started coming in at 7.”
The only supplies left by late morning were a few oversized shovels, a
dwindling pile of salt and one green
disc-shaped snow sled. Philadelphia was
not expected to get anywhere near the
snowfall totals predicted for New York,
but forecasters kept people anxious.
“We know we’re going to get something,” said Frank Cassel. “We just don’t
know what.”
To the north and east, though, there
was no question what was to come: anywhere from 1 to 3 feet of snow, along
with wind gusts of 40 to 70 mph. The
National Weather Service issued a blizzard warning from southeastern New
York and northeastern New Jersey up to
northeastern Maine. “It appears many

of the major metropolitan areas will be
affected anywhere from Philadelphia
through New York City and into Boston,” the agency said in a statement.
By early afternoon, Penn Station, a
major transit hub serving Amtrak, Long
Island Rail Road, New Jersey Transit
and city subways, was humming with
travelers hoping to reach their destinations before the brunt of the storm hit.
One of them was Vincent Yeager,
who had put in a morning’s work at his
office job before heading home early to
Hazlet, N.J. He expected to be back to
his normal routine by Wednesday.
“Everyone always overreacts, thinking it’s going to be the end of the world
but it’s really just Mother Nature,” said
Yeager.
But another traveler, Debbie Corbett, of Buffalo, N.Y., had respect for
nature’s wrath. She experienced a storm
that dropped 7 feet of snow in Buffalo
in November. Corbett and her 15-yearold daughter, Clare, cut short their visit
to New York and were waiting to catch
a train back to Buffalo, where only light
snow was forecast.
“In November, we were trapped in
our house for days,” she said, adding
that New Yorkers were wise to prepare
for a worst-case scenario.
Cuomo said he would decide after a
4 p.m. weather update, whether major
highways in New York would be closed
to all but emergency vehicles. Gov. Dannel P. Malloy in Connecticut declared a
driving ban on highways at 9 p.m.
De Blasio said the driving ban in the
city applied to everyone except people
traveling for emergencies and emergency vehicles.
“I don’t think it’s draconian,” he said,
“I think it’s necessary. This is a common
sense thing to do.”

Obama seeks to mine ‘untapped
potential’ in US-India relationship
By Kathleen hennessy
Tribune Washington Bureau
TNS
President Barack Obama vowed
Monday to accelerate U.S. trade and investment in India, saying both nations
need to do more to capitalize on the
“untapped potential” in a relationship
that could define economic and environmental health in both countries.
“In our globalized world, the fortunes of the United States and the fortunes of India are inextricably linked.
We can grow and we can prosper together,” Obama told a group of business
leaders on Monday during his second
day of a trip to New Delhi.
“We’re moving in the right direction.
The U.S.-India economic relationship is
also defined by so much untapped potential. ... I think everybody here will
agree we’ve got to do better.”
Obama announced a series of new
trade initiatives aimed at boosting defense and technology exports and touted progress on a stalled nuclear power
deal and renewable energy investment.
His remarks during his three-day
stop in India also included a polite push
for Indian officials and the executives
gathered at the Taj Palace hotel to ensure the rush to develop is both “environmentally sound” and “inclusive.”
“Growth cannot just be measured by
the aggregate. It can’t just be measured
by GDP, it can’t just be measured by the
bottom line on a balance sheet,” Obama
said. “Growth in the end has to make
people’s lives better in real tangible and
lasting ways.”
Before the public meeting, Obama
and Prime Minister Narendra Modi met
privately with nearly 30 chief executives
from U.S. and Indian companies. The
CEOs in attendance included Robert
Iger of Walt Disney Co., PepsiCo’s Indra Nooyi, Sacramento Kings owner Vivek Ranadive, Honeywell’s Dave Cote,
Ahmad Chatila of SunEdison and Daniel Roderick of Westinghouse.
Westinghouse is among those that
may benefit from what Obama dubbed
a “breakthrough understanding” in
stalled negotiations over U.S. companies’ push to build nuclear power plants
in India. On Sunday, the two sides
said they had resolved two key sticking

points, accounting for the nuclear material produced by U.S. companies and
liability in case of an accident.
U.S. officials cast the agreement as a
step toward moving India off fossil fuels
– a key aim in the Obama administration’s climate change policy – and expanding access to electricity to the 300
million Indians without it.
One summit attendee called the discussion promising.
“The dialogue was comforting, reassuring and genuine,” said Nishith Desai,
head of an advisory law firm in Mumbai
that represents U.S. and Indian clients.
“It appeared both the U.S. and India
need each other and want to do business.”
“The breakthrough in the nuclear
deal really made people believe that
both parties are more flexible than ever,”
he added.
That progress aside, Obama’s trip has
largely been a show of grand ceremony
and gestures aimed at deepening U.S.India relations under the leadership of
the popular new prime minster.
Leaders began the trip by focusing largely on areas of agreement,
and
Obama
had
so
far avoided commenting on issues of extreme poverty or human rights.
On Monday, he addressed the issues delicately in front of the host. He
heaped praise on Modi’s economic development plans, which include a push
to clean up the street and improve sanitation.
“I know the prime minister has even
taken to sweeping the street himself and
the CEOs are following his lead,” he
said.
“We might have to try that in the
United States.”

• The Project Theater Board at
Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Mass., decided in January to cancel
its upcoming annual presentation of the
feminist classic “Vagina Monologues.”
The all-women’s college recently declared it would admit males who lived
and “identified” as female (regardless of
genitalia), and the basis for cancellation
of “Vagina Monologues” was that the
unmodifiable script is not “inclusive” of
those females – that it covers only experiences of females who actually have
vaginas.
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished
• Kathi Fedden filed a $30 million
wrongful death lawsuit in December
against Suffolk County, N.Y., police after her 29-year-old son, driving drunk
in 2013, fatally crashed into an office.
She reasons that the son’s death is the
fault of the police officer who stopped
him earlier that evening and who must
have noticed he was already drunk but
did not arrest him.
The officer, who knew the son as the
owner of a popular-with-police local
delicatessen, merely gave the son a lift
home, but the son later drove off in his
mother’s car, in which he had the fatal
crash.
January 27, 2015
• A generous resident (name withheld by KDKA-TV) of South Oakland, in seasonal spirit the week before
Christmas, invited a pregnant, homeless woman she had met at a Rite Aid
store home with her for a hot shower,
a change of clothes and a warm bed for
the night.
The resident was forced to call police,
though, when she went to check up on
her guest and discovered her engaging
in sexual activity with the resident’s pit
bull. The guest, enraged at being caught,
vandalized the home before officers arrived to arrest her.
The New Normal
• The website/smartphone app Airbnb, launched in 2008, connects travelers
seeking lodging with individuals offering private facilities at certain prices.
About a year ago, entrepreneur Travis
Laurendine launched a similar smartphone app, “Airpnp,” to connect people
walking around select cities and needing
access to a toilet, listing residents who
make their utilities available, with description and price. Laurendine told the
New York Post in January that New York
City is a promising market (though his
two best cities are New Orleans and Antwerp, Belgium). The prices vary from
free to $20, and the facilities range from
a sweet-smelling room stocked with
reading material to a barely maintained
toilet (with no lavatory), but, said one
supplier, sometimes people “really need
to go, and this will have to do.”
Government in Action
• Kentucky, one of America’s financially worse-off states, annually spends
$2 million of taxpayer money on salaries and expenses for 41 “jailers” who
have no jails to manage. Research by
the Kentucky Center for Investigative
Reporting in January noted that Kentucky’s constitution requires “elected”
jailers, notwithstanding that 41 counties have shut down their jails and house
detainees elsewhere via contracts with
sheriffs. (Though the jailers may be
called upon to transport prisoners from
time to time, the 41 counties are mostly
small ones with few detainees.) Several
jailers have full-time “side” jobs, and
one jail-less jailer employs five deputies
while another has 11 part-timers.
• A.K. Verma was an “assistant executive engineer” working for India’s central public works department in 1990
with 10 years on the job when he went
on leave – and had still not returned by
the end of 2014, when the government
finally fired him. He had submitted numerous requests for extensions during
the ensuing 24 years, but all were denied, though no agency or court managed to force him back to work. (India’s
bureaucracy is generally acknowledged
News
to be among the most dysfunctional in
Asia.)
Ironies
• Timothy DeFoggi, 56, was sentenced in January to 25 years in prison
on child pornography charges – unable
to keep his illicit online transactions
hidden from law-enforcement authorities. Before his conviction, he was acting
director for cyber security in the U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services and, one would assume (wrongly),
an accomplished user of security software.
• After a heavy snowstorm in Frankfort, Ky., (the state capital), in November, with many absences reported, the
state labor policy agency (called the
Labor Cabinet) was among the agencies
needing snow removal at its headquarters more promptly than overworked
cleanup crews could provide. A call was
circulated for volunteers to go outside
and shovel snow, but that job was apparently too laborious for the labor agency;
there was only one taker.
• The Tampa Bay Times (formerly St.
Petersburg Times), reeling financially as
many newspapers are, pledged several
properties it owns (including its downtown headquarters) to borrow $30 million last year from a distressed-property
lender and now announces an intention to pay back that loan by selling
the properties. As reported by the local
St. Petersblog website, the sore-thumb
loan was almost exactly the amount the
Times paid in 2002 for “naming rights”
to the Tampa concert-and-hockey
venue, the Ice Palace (which became
the St. Petersburg Times Forum and is
now Amalie Arena). Thus, St. Petersblog
wrote, “do the math,” concluding that
the Tampa Bay Times was pressured to
sell its own headquarters building in order to pay for the 12-year privilege of
being able to name someone else’s building.
Least Competent Criminals
• Not Well-Thought-Out: (1) Shane
Lindsey, 32, allegedly robbed the Citizens Bank in New Kensington, on Jan.
14 and ran off down the street, but
was arrested about 15 minutes later a
few blocks away, having stopped off at
Eazer’s Restaurant and Deli to order
chicken and biscuits.
(2) Jeffrey Wood, 19, was arrested
in the act of robbing a 7-Eleven in
Northeast Washington, D.C., on Jan.
10 – because two plainclothes detectives
were in the store at the time (though the
police badge of one was hanging from a
chain around her neck). As soon as the
man announced, “This is a stickup,” the
detective drew her gun and yelled, “Stop
playing. I got 17” (meaning a gun with
17 bullets).

Drops in gasoline prices
won’t likely last, analysts say
By David conti
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
TNS
The $2 price party taking place at gas
stations in about half the country likely
will end before it reaches Pittsburgh,
analysts say.
“Refineries have been processing
less crude oil and thus producing less
gasoline, which will contribute to a soft
bottoming out of the national average
before a small recovery,” Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst with
online price tracker GasBuddy.com,
said Monday about seasonal refinery
work that usually lifts prices starting in
early February.
Gasoline in western Pennsylvania fell
another 6 cents to an average of $2.30
per gallon, according to GasBuddy’s
survey of 731 stations in the Pittsburgh
region. Motor club AAA put the western Pennsylvania average at $2.28.
The drop in the national average
slowed to a decrease of 2 cents to $2.02.
AAA said the price decline slowed because of increases in a few Midwestern
states dealing with refinery issues.
Analysts expect the national average
to dip below $2 this week – a level drivers are paying in 27 states – “but motorists shouldn’t expect it to last very long,”
DeHaan said.
A glut of oil driven by more crude
from U.S. shale, a refusal to cut production by major exporters such as the
countries in OPEC and flat global demand has contributed to a national decline in gasoline prices of about $1.25
per gallon since last year.
Analysts including GasBuddy predict the price to bounce back by at least
35 cents by early May.

year in action.
Student Government Association
President Marissa Olean (senior, criminology/pre-law) said that the program
has allowed many organizations and
clubs to promote themselves and gain
new members.
“If organizations are using it for recruitment and keeping an active roster,”
Olean said, “it’s going to work wonderful for them. [SGA] recruited about half
of our new members through CrimsonConnect.”
Three hundred and fifty-five organizations are registered on CrimsonConnect, and 2,459 students have logged
in using their four letters and university
passwords, according to Olean.
Upon logging in to CrimsonCon-
nect, students are able to enter their interests into the system to find clubs and
organizations that may appeal to them.
They can also update their profiles with
details such as their hometowns, demographics or social media links.
Along with listing active clubs and
organizations at IUP, CrimsonConnect
also informs students of upcoming campus events.
Clubs are able to complete the recognition process – which must be done
every three years – through CrimsonConnect. Olean also mentioned that
incoming freshmen are introduced to
CrimsonConnect during their orientation programs.
“When freshmen go through orientation,” Olean said, “they sign up for it,
which is really cool because then they
can see all the organizations on campus.
It helps them get involved as a freshman.”

Student debt grows; financial aid application rates rise
By KAREN HERZOG
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
TNS
MILWAUKEE – For the past three
years, Teresa Piraino has diligently filled
out the federal application for financial
aid for her son Anthony, who is studying criminal justice at the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
In the next few weeks, the Pirainos
will scramble to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid again
– this time for two kids, as daughter Jessica plans to study nursing at Alverno
College in the fall.
“I want to get right on it,” Teresa Piraino said of the online form known as
FAFSA, which becomes accessible every
Jan. 1. “The stakes are high, and I want
to get the most we can because I can’t
give them the money they’ll need.”
With the cost of college escalating –
and with it, student debt – no one wants
to leave money on the table.
But for many families, procrastinating on filing FAFSA may mean missing
out on thousands of dollars in Federal
Work-Study, low-interest Federal Perkins Loans and the Wisconsin Grant
for state residents – all need-based aid
awarded on a first-come, first-served
basis. When the limited pool of money
is gone, students who otherwise would
qualify are out of luck, and are left with
higher-interest federal and private loans
that can pile up debt.
A low-income student potentially
could leave more than $6,000 on the
table in first-come, first-served money
that doesn’t have to be paid back or that
can be repaid at a lower interest rate
than other available loans, according to
financial aid officials at several Wisconsin universities.
Students who don’t file FAFSA at
all could also miss out on Federal Pell
Grants – scholarships of up to $5,645
that they do not have to pay back.
About 2 million students who would
have qualified for a Pell grant missed out
a few years ago – the most recent data
available – because they didn’t file FAFSA, according to data from the 201112 National Postsecondary Student Aid
Study.
Of those students, 1.3 million would
have qualified for a full Pell grant valued
at $5,730 for the 2014 - 15 academic
year, according to Mark Kantrowitz, senior vice president at Edvisors Network
and author of “Filing the FAFSA.”
FAFSA also is required for middleclass families who may qualify for scholarships or school-based financial aid at
colleges that don’t use their own supplemental aid forms.
FAFSA, which must be filed every
year financial aid is requested, requires
copies of income taxes and asks for information such as the student’s Social
Security number, family income, family
size and the number of family members
attending college.
Many don’t file the 10-page,
108-question online form early enough
– or at all – because they find it intimidating, they’re procrastinators or they
assume they earn too much money to
qualify for financial aid, according to
financial aid directors.
Two key federal lawmakers charged
with overseeing the reauthorization of
the Higher Education Act in the U.S.
Senate last summer proposed simplifying the federal student aid system, including reducing FAFSA to a form the
size of a postcard that would ask only
about family size and household income
from two years ago.
“That’s going overboard,” said David Ehlinger, an accountant who lives
in Evansville and has twin daughters
in Wisconsin public colleges. “There
are other questions that need to be answered,” he said, “such as whether it’s
earned or unearned income, and do you
pay child support, which is not on tax
returns but is taken into consideration
by FAFSA.”
For those eager to tackle FAFSA, the
form can be filed with estimated 2014
income tax information.
Some schools, including UW-Madison, prefer families wait until after they
have filed their tax returns so they don’t
have to revise the FAFSA numbers later.
Those not eager to pay the govern-
ment money owed in income taxes can
still fill out tax returns early to complete
FAFSA. They have until April 15 to pay
any tax money owed.
UWM, which awards aid to about
80 percent of its 30,000 students, is
among the schools that award on a firstcome, first-served basis.
This year, UWM is trying something
new to get more students to file FAFSA
by March 1. A campus call center set up
for admissions representatives to reach
out to students who have been admitted
will also encourage FAFSA filing.
Continuing students who file by
March 1 will be eligible for a raffle with
prizes such as a financial aid grant. Less
than half the university’s continuing
students who apply for financial aid
do so by March 1, according to Mark
Levine, interim director of financial aid.
UWM awarded $2.6 million in Perkins loans to about 1,800 undergrad
and graduate students for the current
academic year. The maximum award is
$2,000 a year, Levine said.
“We could probably give out double
that number, in terms of who qualifies,”
Levine said.
UWM gave out $1.6 million in work
study to about 600 students, averaging
$2,500 per student.
“There are a lot of students who are
eligible for all three – Perkins, work
study and Wisconsin Grant,” Levine
said.

The Wisconsin Grants for state residents are capped at $2,384. UWM this
year awarded $12.8 million in Wisconsin Grants to about 6,650 students,
Levine said.
Lawrence University contacts families who haven’t filed FAFSA by a certain date to make sure they don’t miss
out on aid, said Ken Anselment, dean of
admissions and financial aid.
In September, the university announced that it had received an anonymous $25 million matching gift to establish an endowed scholarship to help
meet its goal of providing 100 percent
of the unmet financial needs of future
Lawrence students. It’s the largest gift in
the university’s history.
The Zaffiros of Milwaukee aren’t
leaving anything to chance in their college search or the quest for the best financial aid.
They planned to tackle FAFSA right
after the first of the year to be among
the first in line for whatever financial aid
Emily Zaffiro, a senior at Pius XI High
School, qualifies for at the college she
chooses to attend.
“It’s going to play a role in her decision about where she’s going to college,” said Emily’s dad, Jim Zaffiro. “I
don’t want her to have a huge amount
of debt.”
UW-Madison won’t start awarding
financial aid until final income tax information from 2014 is available, typically
mid-February through mid-March. The
flagship university awards aid in waves
so later applicants don’t miss out.
About 60 percent of UW-Madison’s
students receive some type of financial
aid, according to Susan Fischer, the
school’s financial aid director.
Fischer said one way to reduce the
pressure for financial aid dependence is
to discuss family finances long before a
student applies to colleges.
Universities have net price calculators on their websites to offer an estimate of financial aid families can expect.
“Parents need to talk to their high
school kids early to be realistic about
what they can afford,” Fischer said.

application, go to the U.S. Department

Opinion
Penn EDITORIAL
As time goes by
Time is of the essence.
But, perhaps ironically, we sometimes don’t even take the time to realize such
a truth.
Instead of cherishing and focusing on the day at hand, we often find ourselves
drifting into a purgatory of thoughts about what has yet to come.
Wishful thinking, especially in regards to the future, is far from dangerous.
How else would dreams be born, aspirations be fueled and goals be established?
But if we allow our desires to overcome our presence “in the now,” then how can
we expect to even make strides in accomplishing those goals, demonstrating those
aspirations and making those dreams come true?
It’s reasonable to wonder where your degree is going to take you – and that possibility extends well beyond the classroom.
You might be curious as to what kind of job you’ll get, where you’ll live or how
you’ll afford, well, anything.
It’s even reasonable to assume some of those curiosities will become worries.
As each question becomes more of a reality, it’s only natural that we might begin
to think about potential problems or how we can plan for a successful journey
ahead.
But the minute we allow those curiosities or worries to consume our everyday
thoughts, we have surrendered our own ability to take one day at a time and
embrace the inevitable accompanying highs and lows.
That’s not to say we shouldn’t ever put thought into things down the road, or
make either physical or mental preparations for the future.
Those things can be just as essential.
What we must be aware of, however, is the fine line that stands between said
preparations and a self-inflicted stress about days which we cannot see.
If we can make efforts to establish some sort of balance or – better yet – make
efforts to genuinely appreciate each day as its own, then we’ll already be more prepared for the steps that await us.

Dear Editor,
Indiana University of Pennsylvania’s
Haven Project Peer Educators are holding a campaign for stalking awareness
January 26 through January 30.
The Peer Educators will host a panel
on how to work with victims of stalking on Wednesday in Wallwork, G98
and will have an information table at
the Center for Health and Well Being’s
Health Hut during the week.
One important focal point of this
campaign is the depiction and normalization of stalking in popular culture.
Most recently, pop group Maroon
5’s chart-topping hit, “Animals,” has
Opinion
raised a few eyebrows.
The lyrics themselves are enough
to cause concern, as lead singer Adam
Levine compares the woman to an
animal, saying he is “preying on [her]
tonight” and expressing his desire to
“hunt [her] down” and “eat [her] alive.”
But the video is even more unsettling. It features Adam Levine obsessing over a woman that is essentially a
stranger. He then proceeds to follow
her in secret, photograph her and even
watch her as she sleeps.
What the video fails to show is the
scary reality that is stalking.
According to VictimsOfCrime.org,
6.6 million people are stalked in the
United States each year. In 1 out of 5
of these cases, the stalker uses weapons
to threaten or harm the victims. Often,
victims have severe anxiety, insomnia,
social dysfunction, or depression as a
result of their stalker’s actions.
Stalking is not something should
be glamorized by Hollywood or taken
lightly. It is not romantic, nor is it flattering.
It is a crime, and it should be reported as such.
Students are encouraged to learn
more about stalking by logging onto
www.stalkingawarenessmonth.org or
www.iup.edu/haven.
If you or someone you know experiences violence, help is available. You’re
not alone.
Contact the Haven Project at
(724) 357-4799 or the IUP Counseling
Center at (724) 357-2621. If you are in
immediate danger, call 9-1-1!

IUP students awarded for theater
accomplishments
By jessie list
Staff Writer
[email protected]
Students of Indiana University of
Pennsylvania were recognized for their
exceptional work in theater at the 2015
Kennedy Center American College
Theater Festival Jan. 12-16 at West
Chester University.
The KCACTF is a national theater
program involving nearly 18,000 students nationwide from 600 different
academic institutions.
It is at this festival that college students from around the country are able
to showcase their work in theater – from
directing to acting, all the way to set design and theater technology.
The event highlighted the wide range
of talent at IUP as students received
awards in several different categories.
Amos Glass (senior, theater) and
Sarah Fabiani (junior, hospitality management) won events in the Tech Olympic competition, which aimed to test
students on their knowledge and skills
in technical theater.
Kim Siegle (senior, theater) received
a Regional Award in stage management
for her presentation of her work on Theater-by-the-Grove’s “Fahrenheit 451,”
which was shown at IUP in November.
For the same show, Chelsea Kikel
won both the Stagecraft Institute Award
in sound design for a week of workshops
in Las Vegas this summer and the Kennedy Center Award for a week’s intensive at the Kennedy Center in April.
Shane Malachow (freshman, computer science/theater) was also recognized for achievement in the Design
Storm event, in which designers and
directors from different schools were
teamed up to create their own production of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House.”
Kaitlyn McGilvray (senior, theater)
was sent forward in the field of six finalists in the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society directing event, a program that featured directing workshops,
discussion panels with other student
directors and a showcase of a prepared,
student-directed scene.
McGilvray presented her cast of Andre Briscoe and Indira LaTouche performing a scene from Katori Hall’s “The
Mountaintop.”
When asked how they began their
path in dramatics, many of the awardwinning students traced their love for
theater all the way back to childhood,
though it was made apparent that IUP
adequately fostered their interests.
“Because IUP is a liberal arts program,” McGilvray said, “you are encouraged to look at many different areas of
the arts and theater. We are required to
take classes in every area of theater, from
acting, stage management, directing
and design.”
IUP’s educators have given these
students endless amounts of encouragement for success in their careers within
the department and outside as well,
Glass said.
“Over the past few years, I have
felt supported in almost every area for
which I have tried,” McGilvray said.
Students, like McGilvray, feel that
they could not have gotten this far without the constant support from others.
“You can’t do theater as just yourself,”
McGilvray said. “You need mentors and
aids and as much help as you could get.
I love the collaboration that comes with
creating art.”

New jungle gym near
Stapleton Library to
become building?
By samantha Barnhart
Copy Editor
[email protected]
This semester, what many students
assumed to be a new jungle gym near
Stapleton Library is beginning to look
suspiciously more like a building than a
large playground structure.
Various students have shown confusion and concern over the structure’s
new look.
“It looked like a huge, metal jungle
gym when I left campus for winter
break,” Taylor Manson (senior, hermitage) said. “When I got back to campus
last week, I noticed that now it’s beginning to have walls. Jungle gyms aren’t
supposed to have those.”
Though the official identity of the
structure is unknown, several rumors
have circulated campus suggesting that
the project’s identity is a building – not
the sought-after playground for which
students had hoped.
Joseph Brody (sophomore, pelt art)
said he heard one such rumor.
“I heard a rumor that it’s actually going to be a $30 million building that’s
supposed to house seven departments
in the College of Humanities and Social
Sciences,” Brody said. “But it’s just a rumor. It’s probably wrong.”
The student body is now divided
into three set camps: those who believe
the structure will be a building, those
who continue to believe it is a jungle
gym and those who refused to fill out
the survey.
Thomas Moose (junior, pickpocketing) is among the students who believe
the structure will become a building instead of a plaything.
“When some of my friends were arrested for climbing over the gate and
swinging from the metalwork last semester,” Moose said, “I thought it was
ridiculous. But now that I think it’s a
building, and not, in fact, a jungle gym,
that totally makes sense.
“I’m not happy about it, though,”
Moose added.
Of the jungle gym supporters, Sarah
Larkin (freshman, equinox therapy) explained why she remains hopeful.
“I’m still under the impression that
it’s part of a massive playground for
adults,” Larkin said. “Every time I walk
by, the construction workers seem to be
having fun. They’re always playing loud
country music, and they even get to
hang out in trailers.
“If that isn’t the definition of fun, I
don’t know what is.”
Though construction continues to
make the structure look more and more
like a building, students like Larkin and
Layla Schmidt (freshman, robot love)
aren’t discouraged.
“Even if it turns out to be a structure
for learning and not for fun,” Schmidt
said, “I’ll still treat it like it’s a jungle
gym anyway.”
At this point in time, the structure’s
true purpose remains a mystery.
“I’m telling you, it’s a new humanities and social sciences building,”
claimed Joe Stamos, one of the construction workers on the project. “It
isn’t a mystery at all. I don’t understand
why this confusion exists.”
It appears that only time will tell.

During the spring semester, some
students at Indiana University of Pennsylvania are looking to shed the pounds
they may have gained over winter break.
Students on campus are hitting the
gym, starting to eat healthier and making new goals to help them lose weight.
Courtney Hanchey (sophomore,
psychology), who checks people into
the gym, has noticed the increase of students attending.
“There has been an increase of students since the new semester,” Hanchey
said, “and the most popular equipment
seems to be the full-body machine and
the treadmill.”
Hanchey herself has always worked
out, but she wants to improve her methods this semester.
“I started more cardio to burn belly
fat,” Hanchey said. “I want to get back
into three meals a day with small snacks
in between and only drink water.”
Richard Ront (freshman, mid-level
education: social sciences) has a new
plan in order to help him lose his freshman 15.
“My new plan is to do more cardio,”
he said, “since I have never done it before, and I want to cut out soda.”
Ront likes to work out at the campus
gym.
“I like to have the ability to do something else while exercising,” Ront said,
“and the television on the machines
helps me do that.”

[email protected]
for more details.
To help other students with their
own goals, Ront has a few suggestions.
“Lifting to build mass instead of
strength by using low weight and high
reps could help,” he said, “and it is important to drink just water to help you
shed pounds.”
Kaitlyn Mazzotta (freshman, nursing) would also like to exercise more but
has a main goal to eat healthier.
“I would like to not buy food
from on campus more and try
to eat more fruits and vegetables
and definitely eat less bread products,”
Mazzotta said.
Other options on campus are also
available for students who would prefer
to exercise in groups.
The Hadley Union Building Fitness Center offers group fitness
with classes for $5 for a daily pass,
$20 for a monthly pass or a semester
pass for only $40.
The classes start soon for this semester and include all kinds of workouts,
including cardio, dance, karate, stepping and biking, all with trainers.
For more information on
the classes, times and dates,
students can contact the gym or go to
www.coop.iup.edu/Co-op_Fitness
If this kind of exercising doesn’t
sound appealing to students looking to
lose weight, other campus activities are
available as well.
These activities include tubing and tobogganing at the golf
driving range. I-Cards can be used to
rent equipment and participate for a
small fee.

“The Giver,” a 1993 NewberyMedal-winning novel by Lois Lowry
for young adults and depicting a dystopian society, finally made it onto the big
screen last year.
The movie takes place in a community where emphasis is put on “sameness” and things such as emotion, color,
pets and weather do not exist; they were
eradicated to create a supposedly utopian society devoid of pain and strife.
Jonas, portrayed by Brenton
Thwaites, is the main character, and
after his graduation is given the job as
receiver of memory.
As the receiver, he alone knows the
truth of the world and can help those in
charge make informed decisions.
He receives these memories from Jeff
Bridges’ character, who is only known as
The Giver.
The challenges of this unique job
play heavily on the 16-year-old boy –
four years older than the original novel’s
protagonist’s age – and create the main
plot of the story.
The movie has received heavy criticism since its October 2 release, especially in regards to its differences with
the novel. No movie adaption will be
perfect, and some changes are necessary;
but movies can also go too far from the
inspiration for a fan’s taste.
That is partly what happened with
this film.
The age difference is understandable
because it helps the director appeal to
his target audience.
However, in this case, it
also lets Phillip Noyce create
an on-screen romance between
Thwaites and his costar, Odeya Rush,
who portrays one of Jonas’ best friends,
Fiona.
Their
characters’
romance
never
really
existed
in
the
novel outside a few thoughts and dreams
that Jonas experienced.
It is clear this was done for dramatic
and cinematic effect, but it also just does
not feel right – especially compared to
the original plot.
However, it is not as big an issue
as the one surrounding Meryl Streep’s
character.
Streep portrays the role as Chief Elder and main antagonist in the film.
Yet her character’s role was, once
again, seemingly created for the movie
adaption.
Her character plays a far bigger – and
more sinister – role than that which appears in the novel.
The main problem with this is that
the new character does not even seem
to know whether she is supposed to be
a prime example of authoritarianism or
an evil mastermind.
The Chief Elder goes from appearing to be out of the loop on
what is happening during Jonas’
training to understanding exactly what
is going on and what freedoms the community has relinquished.
Lowry’s novel is simple. It presents
big ideas about society without overcomplicating things for the young readers.
The story is one about nonconformity and the importance of
both positive and negative aspects
of the world.
Yet
in
Noyce’s
desire
to
create
a
captivating
and
action-filled movie, he loses a lot
of what makes the story as great
as it is, simply by overdoing a
lot of the beautiful simplicity Lowry
originally conveyed in her book.
For some fans, it will be difficult to
move past the differences between the
movie and the book when watching the
film.
For others, the movie presents a great
opportunity to see a part of one’s childhood on the silver screen.
Though the film deviates from
the novel somewhat and can come
off as loud and overly complicated
at times, the film has its heart in
the right place and can be a great watch.

Second-half surge propels IUP over Clarion
Chance, Crimson Hawks outscore Golden Eagles 53-37 after halftime for 17th win of season
By VAUGHN DALZELL
Staff Writer
[email protected]
Finishing the game strong, the Indiana University of Pennsylvania men’s
basketball team enjoyed a victory over
Clarion University
Saturday.
The Crimson
Hawks went into
halftime
down
one point but
outscored Clarion
53-37 in the second half alone to
improve to 17-3 (11-3).
Coach Joe Lombardi had a lot to say
about the second half swing for the No.
25-ranked Crimson Hawks.
“Coming into the game, Clarion
was quoted as saying they were excited
to play a ranked team,” he said, “and
they came out and put some fear into
our team.”
The second half, however, was a different story.
“We took it to another level,” Lombardi said. “We hit the glass hard and
got a lot of second-possession shots. We
played our best basketball in the second
half.”
Senior point guard Devante Chance
(communications media) explained the
difference in IUP’s performance.
“We were able to get first rebounds
when the shots went up on defense,” he
said.
“And some guys were in foul trouble,
including myself, and it kind of took
our edge away in the first half.”
Chance, who’s been called an iron
man for playing his fourth 40-minute
game of the season, has appeared in at
least 38 minutes of action in 10 games
this year.
“Playing 40 minutes a night is always a challenge that I love to face,” he
said, “because my brothers need me out
there, and I continue to work on my
body and prepare for games where I
don’t come out.”
It was a team effort that drove the
Crimson Hawks’ victory, though, as six
IUP players scored double digits. The
high man was Shawn Dyer (graduate,
criminology), who had 20 points and
was 7 for 11 from the floor.
Meanwhile, Daddy Ugbede (junior,
communications media) had another
strong performance in the box score.
He stepped into the starting lineup yet
again and finished with 10 points and 4
rebounds in just 22 minutes.
Devante Chance (senior, communications media), prepares to drive the ball for the Crimson Hawks.
Brandon Norfleet (junior, communications media) also had himself a day,
finishing with 18 points on a hot 7 for
9 shooting.
Devon Cottrel (redshirt junior, communications media) sat out this game
against Clarion with a hamstring injury
that he suffered Wednesday against the
University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown.
Coach Lombardi expects him to get
some treatment and come back for their
next game.

team improve to a 17-1 record with an
impressive 85-56 victory over the Golden Eagles.
Clarion falls to a 1-18 overall record,
which is the second worst mark in the
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
The Golden Eagles are also 0-14 in division play and have lost 14-straight contests.
Stoner, going into the game, was
only 19 points away from 1,000 points.
The forward from Pittsburgh tallied her
milestone early in the second half and
joins fellow senior Lindsay Stamp (se-
nior, criminology) in the 1,000-point
club.
Stamp reached her milestone earlier
in the season against Ohio Valley University.
The Crimson Hawks started strong
in the first half with an early 11-4 run to
start, and by the time the first half came
to a close, the Crimson Hawks built a
sturdy 47-23 lead.
Head coach Tom McConnell used a
sizable portion of his bench during the
first half. Stoner raced out to a 17-point
performance at halftime, and Stamp fin-
January 27, 2015
ished the half with 13 points.
Clarion looked for a response and
generated more offense. The Golden
Eagles posted 33 points in the second
half, but their offense, minus the departed Hannah Heeter, could not make
up for poor shooting in the first stanza.
IUP posted 38 points in the second
half to capture its 17th win of the season. Moreover, the team moved into
the top spot in the PSAC West after the
previous leader, California University of
Pennsylvania, fell to Gannon University.
Stoner finished with a double-dou-
ble and her second 20-point game of
the season. She was an efficient 8-of-13
from the field and 83 percent from the
charity stripe.
In addition to Stoner’s performance,
Stamp also managed to have a solid
game, finishing with 19 points, nine rebounds and two steals.
Perhaps the most glaring statistic was
IUP’s advantage on the glass, as it collected 52 boards to Clarion’s 26.
The Crimson Hawks will return to
action Saturday at 5:30 p.m. against the
Seton Hill Griffins.

For the Flyers, it’s time to either adapt or perish
By MICHAEL GOSNELL
Staff Writer
[email protected]
1975.
Gas was 57 cents per gallon and milk
only set you back $1.40.
1975 also symbolizes the pinnacle of
the greatest period of hockey in Philadelphia Flyers history.
It marks the last time the Flyers captured a Stanley Cup.
Flyers fans will undoubtedly recall
the ’70s as being the era of the “Broad
Street Bullies,” an era of an in-yourface, win-at-all-costs brand of hockey.
It served the Flyers well, delivering two
Stanley Cups in the ’70s and a myriad of
memorable moments and players.
That era was highlighted by two important players in Philadelphia hockey
history: Bobby Clarke and David “The
Hammer” Schultz.
Clarke, a member of the Hockey
Hall of Fame, was the heart and soul
of Broad Street during his 1,144 games
played in Flyers orange and black.
He was the embodiment, one could
say, of what was right about the National Hockey League in the ’70s.
Conversely, Schultz personified what
was wrong with the NHL during the
’70s. He holds the record for penalty
minutes in a single season with 472.
Schultz and his teammates terrorized
the league.
The year 1975 is the pinnacle of
greatness for an otherwise goon squad.
Unfortunately, Flyers management, a
portion of the Philadelphia fan base and
certain players are stuck in 1975.
Tuesday was another example of
what is wrong with hockey.
For a game that is struggling to gain
national attention by ESPN and other
media outlets, the disgusting performance displayed by the Pittsburgh Penguins and Flyers brought the game back
to the ’70s.
It should not happen. Not in today’s
game.
Everything evolves, and that includes
how a sport is played.
The NHL and its players have adapted their style of play and the way they
do business.
The game is a finesse game now,
which would make players like Schultz
an endangered species. The role of the
enforcer is a dying breed in hockey because players are now called upon to do
more than fight or check.
Don’t tell that secret to Flyers management.
The powers in Philadelphia have routinely hired what can only be described
as Neanderthals on skates. Their current
caveman?
Zac Rinaldo.
For those who did not catch the
game on Jan. 20, Rinaldo maliciously
and intentionally delivered a check from
behind to Penguins defenseman Kris
Letang during the first period.
The game was marred with fights,
checks and cheap shots, the usual menu
for the Flyers and a portion of their fan
base.
Rinaldo was ejected for boarding and
will undoubtedly receive a suspension
from the NHL Department of Player
Safety.
But at issue here is not the hit itself
but the comments made by the caveman.
“I changed the whole game, man,”
Rinaldo told a scrum of reporters.
“Who knows what would’ve happened
if I didn’t do what I did?”
How many different kinds of gutless
do you have to be to make comments
like that?
Rinaldo also commented that since
Letang was a star player, he would be
hearing from the NHL.
Are you feeling queasy yet? If not,
there’s more.
The embarrassment of the Flyers
organization continued his diatribe,
calling for the league to ignore the important pieces of the film showing the
illegal check to Letang.
“I don’t think they should slow it
down and dissect every little thing,”
Rinaldo said.
Because they’ll find something
damning, right?
What a joke the Flyers franchise is
for keeping this guy on payroll.
Those comments, filled with disrespect and a lack of common sense, are
an indication of where the Flyers franchise is in 2015.
That begs the question: Who is to
blame for the state of the Flyers?
Everyone involved is, from fans to
management to the players themselves.
Let’s start from the top:
Chairman Ed Snider employs three
individuals that have played a hands-on
role in the continued lack of success of
the Flyers franchise.
Those three individuals are President
and former General Manager Paul Holmgren, current GM Ron Hextall and
head coach Craig Berube.
Holmgren almost single-handedly
prevented Philadelphia from taking a
necessary step forward in their identity
by electing to trade away key players in
exchange for players with toughness and
some skill.
The Flyers elected to trade team
captain Mike Richards to Los Angeles
in 2011, where he has since won two
Stanley Cups along with former Philadelphia teammate Jeff Carter.
Both trades netted quality players in
Brayden Schenn, Wayne Simmonds and
Jakub Voracek (who is leading the NHL
in points with 56), but Holmgren elected to free up cap space for a goaltender.
You remember him, right?
Ilya Bryzgalov ring a bell?
Holmgren signed the eccentric goalie
to a nine-year, $51 million deal in the
summer of 2011.
Bryzgalov lasted two seasons with
Philadelphia, as his sporadic play in net
saw the remaining seven years of his
contract bought out by Holmgren.
But perhaps the most egregious
transaction to date was the trading of
James van Riemsdyk in June 2012 to
the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange
for defenseman Luke Schenn.
This trade is, was and will forever be
a boondoggle by Holmgren.
Schenn has provided next to nothing to rave about during his tenure in
Philadelphia.
Schenn has nine goals in three seasons with the Flyers, and a minus-3 in
orange and black.
Toronto has benefited with van
Riemsdyk’s addition, and he has become
a key piece to the Maple Leafs’ future.
The comedy of errors continued for
Holmgren.
Just three games into the 2013-14
season, Holmgren fired Peter Laviolette
as head coach and replaced him with
Berube, the current head coach.
Berube is a former Flyers player who
spent seven seasons in Philadelphia.
During his career, Berube amassed
3,149 penalty minutes.
Therefore a perfect fit in the culture
of the Flyers. The culture of the “Broad
Street Bullies.”
Players like Rinaldo will continue to
tarnish the Flyers’ image as long as his
own image still gets to represent the city
of Philadelphia, its fan base and the organization.
Current General Manager Hextall
has the unenviable task of deal with the
fallout from Jan. 20. All I can say is:
Good luck.
The culture change is inevitable, Flyers fans. Truthfully, the fan base must be
the ones calling for changes.
Changes in the way their team plays,
conducts itself and changes in personnel, if need be. It will be a slow process,
but a necessary one.
In order for the Philadelphia Flyers to maintain the level of success for
which they were known – instead of the
cheap and dirty style of play they are
now – they must evolve.
Adapt or perish.

Men, women qualify for
IUP at YSU Invitational
By JASON JARVIS
Staff Writer
[email protected]
The Indiana University of
Pennsylvania indoor track and
field team competed in their
second meet of the season at the
Youngstown State Invitational
Friday.
For the men’s team, Austin
Cooper
(freshman,
TRACK & FIELD
accounting) won
the
800
meter with
a time of
1:56.
T h i s
time earned Cooper a Pennsylvania State Athletics Conference
qualifying spot. Also for the
men’s team, Jeremy Claypoole
(junior, exercise science) finished
third in the triple jump with a
jump of 13.96 meters.
Claypoole also qualified for
the PSAC championships in February.
The IUP women’s team had
three PSAC qualifiers from Friday’s meet.
Rachel Magliane (junior, dietetics) finished fourth in the
3000-meter distance race at
10:47.
Brooke Smay (sophomore,
safety science) finished fifth in
the triple jump with a jump of
11:02 meters.
Right behind Smay in sixth
place for the triple jump was
Kiah Walton (freshman, fashion
merchandising) with a jump of
10.89 meters.
The indoor track and field
season continues next week for
IUP as they travel to Lewisburg
for the Bucknell Bison Open.

College basketball needs some help, starting from the top
By SAM MELLINGER
The Kansas City Star
TSN
The conversations are like hearing a
mother talk about her son’s bad decisions. She loves him, always will, but
hanging out on the corner late at night
is nothing but trouble. She sees the dark
road and hopes her dear boy makes the
right changes before it’s too late.
This is the picture you get talking to
people inside college basketball about
their sport. They love the game, but
hope it gets help.
In an age of growing value for sports
properties, ratings are going down, and
it’s easy to see why. Scoring is at historic
lows. Possessions are longer ... and longer. Attacks on the rim are replaced by
hip bumps on drives, providing incentive to shoot more and more guarded
3-pointers.
Four assistant coaches talked for this
story – two from the Big 12, one each
from the Southeastern Conference and
Atlantic Coast Conference – and at a
minimum advocated for a shorter shot
clock.
They were granted anonymity for
various reasons, including honesty, but
also because the smartest man of the
bunch – no offense to those coaches – is
speaking loudly and clearly.
“I will fight for college basketball until the death,” said Jay Bilas, the former
Duke player and assistant coach, and
current ESPN broadcaster. “But sitting
by and watching this ship sink is not
good enough. Who could defend what
we’re seeing right now?”
The sport’s problems are coming out
of the shadows in what is largely an ugly
season. This will almost certainly be the
slowest season since college basketball
adopted the – then 45 seconds – shot
clock. This is a season of hopeless shots
and streams of timeouts slaughtering
any flow.
One game was 17-14 at halftime and
tied at 55-55 after overtime. Nine teams
from power conferences have won games
without breaking 50 points. Temple
won a game scoring 40 points, on 11of-48 shooting. On Thursday, Georgia
Tech – an ACC program that gives out
scholarships – scored 28 points.
In a full, 40-minute game. No wonder fewer people are watching.
The sport must change. It tried a
year ago, when “freedom of movement”
became a buzz phrase, and the changes worked. Scoring and possessions
jumped. But officials didn’t have the
stomach for it, and by conference play,
with games taking on more importance
and coaches continuing to pressure referees, the game basically reverted to its
old ways.
It’s frustrating because, especially in
private, so many people inside the sport
know the game must evolve. That much
is obvious. There are several simple
shifts that could make the sport cleaner,
faster, and better to watch – and play,
for that matter.
But the thing is, the best way to
make those smaller changes is to address
one outdated, self-destructive and fundamental fact about college basketball:
The game has no leader.
What kind of multibillion-dollar
business operates without a CEO?
“There’s nobody in charge, and that
has become abundantly clear,” Bilas
said. “We deserve the game we’ve got
now. We earned this.”
Jim Haney, executive director of
the National Association of Basketball
Coaches, acknowledges that there is a
growing conversation from within the
game to have a more centralized leader.
“I do think there is interest in trying to figure out how to manage it more
effectively, and what would that look
like,” Haney said.
That’s a start, at least.
This is hardly the first time a major
sport has needed to adapt in a faster
culture. In somewhat recent history, the
NBA and NFL have each faced similar
problems.
The NFL is the most obvious place
to start. Football is a tough-guy culture,
of course, and for decades the NFL glorified its nastiest and most bone-jarring
– often bone-breaking – hits.
But at some point in the late 1990s
or early 2000s, that culture began to
cause problems. First, it was too many
injuries to too many quarterbacks – affecting not only scoring and strategy,
but interest from fans wanting to see
stars. Then, a growing acknowledgment
and acceptance of what the violence of
football does to the brains and bodies of
the men who play it.
In very different ways, both factors
were affecting the attraction and in turn
profits of the sport. The NFL responded
with a series of rules changes – from the
so-called strike zone on quarterbacks to
how defenders can touch receivers – to
increase scoring and reduce injuries.
The result?
In the last 25 years, the top four
seasons in touchdowns-per-game are
the last four seasons. There have been
criticisms about the “wussification” of
a tough-guy sport, but even through all
of the NFL’s other mistakes, the sport
has never been more watched or more
profitable.
The NBA’s moment –“Hi, I’m David
Stern, and my league is boring” – came
in the late 1990s. The “Jordan Rules”
had morphed from How To Defend The
Game’s Best Player to How To Defend
Everyone. Anthony Mason was a star,
and Pat Riley’s Heat was largely blamed
for mucking up an entire league.
By the strike-shortened 1997-98
season, points and field-goal percentage
were each at 30-year lows. The league
responded by cracking down on handchecks, low-post contact and isolated
dribbling, among other changes. Immediately, scoring went up 6 percent, and
pace increased by 5 percent.
The league has continued to shape
rules and officiating in a way to influence scoring, ball movement and drives
to the basket. Many observers say the
NBA’s product has never been better.
This could be college basketball’s
story, too.
By definition, players in college will
never be as good as those in the NBA.
But the environments are better, the
passion bigger, and the platform enough
that it is the world’s first look at the
game’s biggest stars.
College basketball could be a better
product, in other words. If not in comparison to the NBA – that’s entirely subjective – then certainly when compared
with what it is at the moment.
“I love this game, and it’s become
unwatchable,” Bilas said. “It’s hard for
me to argue with people I know and
respect those who don’t want to watch
our game. It’s hard to build a case why
they’re wrong.”
The easiest way to quicken college
basketball is to shorten the shot clock,
most reasonably from 35 seconds to 30.
That’s the pace of both the women’s college game and the WNBA.
The NBA and international game
use 24 seconds.
This would cut down on coaches’
ability to micromanage every dribble.
The NBA did a data study when the
WNBA reduced its shot clock and
found no increase in bad shots.
At the very least, this one change
should be done as soon as possible.
“You’ll get kickback from some
coaches,” one of the Big 12 assistants
said, “because that means we’re giving
up control. If my team isn’t as good as
yours, I want to decrease possessions as
much as I can. But it would make for a
better game.”
Beyond that, the sport should actually commit to the “freedom of movement” changes it began last season with.

Cutting down on hand checks, cleaning
up the wrestling that goes on in the post
and freeing offensive players to go to the
basket both with and without the ball
would make for a more open, higherscoring and generally more enjoyable
product to watch.
But that’s only a start.
The lane should be widened, providing more space for the drives to the
basket that result in so many highlights.
The 3-point line could be moved
back, opening the floor. Our ACC assistant even suggested widening the
court – an acknowledgment of the increasing size and athleticism of players
– to free up play, but admitted this was
a logistical nightmare and probably a
non-starter.
The college game could learn a lot
from the international game.
International games are the same 40
minutes of playing time as college ball,
but generally take about 10 minutes
fewer to complete.
Some of this is with reduced timeouts and stricter substitution rules.
Some of it is in playing 10-minute quarters instead of 20-minute halves. Team
fouls reset at the quarter, meaning fewer
free throws on common fouls.
All of these changes would make college basketball easier to watch, but arguing over the details without a higher-level change in how the sport is governed
is like arguing what color to paint your
new house without a construction company to build it.
Because the sport showed last year
that it didn’t have the fortitude for
changes that demonstrably increased
scoring and possessions.
