My foreign footballer friends

·

SEOUL, South Korea - Sergi kicks the ball in my direction. I trap it and make a quick pass to Ho-jun, who passes it to Lukas, who then kicks it to Giacomo, who dribbles it down the field and promptly passes it to Mathieu, who, with some fancy footwork, dances around the defenders and shoots.

Jacobs faculty lectures for library series

·

Classic musical numbers, Chicago blues and rural folk music filled the auditorium at the Monroe County Public Library Monday night during the panel discussion titled “Dealing with Hard Times: Popular Music During the Depression.” Jacobs faculty members Constance Cook Glen, Andrew Hollinden and Glenn Gass lectured as part of the IU Library series “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?”, which continues through the end of October. All three included music from the Depression era, as well as music that was influenced and had influence during the time period.

Aliber has talent

·

Freshman Tommy Aliber might not currently be the best player on the IU men’s tennis team, but his hard work and dedication have turned him into a two-time state champion and the No. 1 singles player in the Missouri Valley and give him the ability to possibly reach that point at IU.

As leaves change, so do BCS bowl perceptions

·

The leaves are changing, and so is the temperature. In other words, we are starting to find out who is for real and who is not in the college football world, and who could or will not contend for the National Championship.

Students earn extra cash by tutoring others

If you spend any time on campus, you will likely see flyers tacked advertising lessons and tutoring of all kinds. For some IU students, especially music school students, teaching others can be a great way to earn extra cash or just a way to share something they are passionate about.

Lunchtime lessons for the health care debate

·

In language that is only comical because it is hyperbolic, protestors during the 9-12 Tea Party March on Washington attempted to link President Barack Obama to ideologies as diverse as fascism, communism and socialism claiming, “they’re all intertwined.”  What the marchers were presumably trying to articulate when they alleged that fascism, communism and socialism are indistinguishable (which, at least from a policy perspective, is quite untrue) was their fear of an authoritarian government.

Breast cancer beyond the boobies

·

It’s Machiavelli in a string bikini: Do the ends justify the scantily clad means? Even though it is hard to argue with promoting awareness about cancer, these ads hurt more than they help.

Scared of Sweden?

·

According to the American conception of socialism, Sweden should be a desolate wasteland filled with mindless communist zombies, right? After all, they give poor people things after transferring money from people who can afford it (gasp!).
