The good, the bad, the nasty

"Drop your cocks, and grab your socks: It's time to saddle a mule." That is the cry that sophomore Mary Solecki heard every summer morning in her outdoor tent cabin from Wayne, a rough and tumble, 60-year-old cowboy who was one of the lead mule drivers at Yosemite National Park in California.

With the Adidas Classic kicking off the men's soccer season Friday, it's time for campus to once again get excited about the school's most successful athletic program. Every season these matches are well attended, yet Bill Armstrong Stadium lacks one thing: atmosphere.

Defending champs roll through exhibition openers

·

FORT WAYNE ' After 67 minutes of flying mud and grass and brutal play, sophomore forward Mike Bock headed the ball into the goal to break a scoreless tie for the top-ranked Hoosiers, who defeated No. 20 Rutgers 2-0 in the final game at the IU-Purdue University at Fort Wayne Soccer Showcase Sunday. IU men's soccer coach Jerry Yeagley said his team's offense clicked during the first 30 minutes of the game when all starters were in the game. The substitution of Bock in the 70th minute, however, allowed the Hoosiers to end repetitive scoreless counterattacks from both teams.

Hoosierfest

·

It's been the story of the summer, an inconvenience to pedestrians and motorists, a bone of contention between local merchants and city government and an eyesore in the heart of Bloomington. It's the construction that closed Kirkwood Avenue earlier this summer. But Saturday night saw a new side of Kirkwood, and for the first time in a long while, people filled the street. Some stopped into local shops such as Smoothie King and Tracks. Some sipped ale in the beer garden, and most gathered around the stage at Grant Street and enjoyed the performances of musical groups Cracker, Karl Denson and others.

Too many tragedies

·

Don't drink and drive. Please. I met a mother this summer who lost her 18-year-old son Adam in a drunk driving accident. He wasn't drinking. The man who hit him was, but that man survived.

Don't 'waste' away your experience

A good friend of mine is an resident assistant in Briscoe this year. As we chatted this week about our summers, I asked her why she had decided to become an RA, especially in Briscoe. There's nothing wrong with that, but I was surprised because she seems more academically oriented. During her first two years, she lived in the Honors section of Ashton Center. It seems she didn't have a choice.
