Blame Canada

By Scott Leadingham · Monday, Sept. 11,2006 10:52 p.m.

I remember when I told my parents that I was different. The setting was rather dim -- if that is how such ambiance can be described. Lighting in Chinese restaurants is notoriously low, which is an appropriate metaphor for how I was feeling at the time. But despite all the misgivings I had for what I was about to say, I knew it had to be said. Sure, they might think I was some sort of weirdo, even a shame to our distinct family name, which had been guarded and unblemished for decades. Despite all of this, it was high time to come clean. It was time to stop living a lie.

By Sonia Rana · Monday, Sept. 11,2006 1:30 p.m.

Fans and supporters cheered and shouted early Saturday at Memorial Stadium not for a football game, but for the more than 1,400 runners who crossed the finish line of the inaugural 13.1-mile IU Mini-Marathon. Participants from 25 states took part in the race, and hundreds more joined in for the 5K run and other weekend activities. Proceeds from the weekend will go to a scholarship fund to help cancer survivors attend IU. The IU student group Circle of Life organized the races in addition to various other activities to raise money for a scholarship fund to honor Bill Z. Littlefield, a Kelley School of Business professor who died of cancer last year. At press time, senior Kevin MacCauley, president and chief executive officer of Circle of Life, said it was too early to tell how much money had been raised for the scholarship.

Many business school professors and students participated in the event, including Dean Dan Smith. Smith run in the 5K with his wife and family dog.
