Freedom under fire

In the past, the University of Michigan Press has been known to publish a body of fairly controversial works. For example, in 2004 it released “The Limits to Union: Same-Sex Marriage and the Politics of Civil Rights,” by Jonathan Goldberg-Hiller. This book provided a discussion of the same-sex marriage debate, which was and still is, needless to say, an extremely divisive issue.

Letters from Abroad

BOLOGNA, Italy – I am the biggest art history dweeb ever. I will freely admit it. This week, I finally made some time to start exploring the local art and culture (other than the bars and nightlife).

Food for the soul

Fried catfish, rib tips and collard greens greeted attendees of the 11th annual Soul Food Festival on Saturday afternoon at Karst Farm Park. And along with the unhealthy fare came health care screenings for attendees. With DJ Toe Toe spinning hip hop, and everything from Beastie Boys to DJ Unk, members of the Bloomington community mingled while exploring the booths of various businesses and organizations in between plates of Cajun and soul food.

With the defensive formations it used Saturday, it seemed as if Akron thought IU was a pass-happy offense. It thought wrong.

RUNNING WILD

·

Sophomore quarterback Kellen Lewis said he simply took what Akron gave him. The Zips were generous. In the first quarter, Lewis took off for a career-best 64-yard run on a quarterback option – and he was just getting started. The run was a microcosm of the game, as Lewis ran 18 times for 199 yards and two touchdowns in the Hoosiers’ 41-24 victory over Akron.

IU drops 2 tough games over weekend

·

The IU field hockey team had a tough weekend, dropping two hard-fought contests to No. 12 Ohio and No. 5 Wake Forest at the IU Field Hockey Field. The Hoosiers raised their level of play to the competition, but fell just short in both games, losing to Ohio 1-0 and Wake Forest 2-1. “We didn’t get the results we wanted, but I think we had two good performances,” IU coach Amy Robertson said. “The job of the coaches is to always be working on the next thing and always trying to be taking steps forward. I think we took some big steps forward.” IU (4-3) lost a heartbreaker to Ohio on Friday. The Hoosiers and Bobcats played evenly throughout the game, with Ohio outshooting IU 10-8 and earning a 5-3 advantage in penalty corners.
