Thomas gives IU more post presence

·

IU is down by one point. One-and-two-tenths seconds remain in overtime. Junior forward DeAndre Thomas is on the line about to shoot two free throws. After a couple of dribbles, Thomas calmly sinks the first free throw. One shot remains to give the Hoosiers the victory.

Hoosiers face Rockets on Friday in NCAA Tournament

·

With its season on the line, the IU women’s soccer team will battle the University of Toledo on Friday in the Hoosiers’ first NCAA Tournament game since 1998. The Hoosiers travel to West Lafayette to take on the Rockets at 11 a.m. The winner of Friday’s match and the winner of the Purdue-Oakland contest will face each other Sunday. The winner of that game will travel to College Station, Texas, and continue in the tournament.

Stopping at the fork in the road for the Bucket game

·

It’s been a long time since the Hoosiers played a “must-see game.” But if you’re in Bloomington on Saturday and not inside Memorial Stadium, I feel bad for you. Stop talking about Eric Gordon for 48 hours. This weekend belongs to the football team.

IU alumna Meg Cabot to release latest book Tuesday

After nearly 50 books, New York Times bestselling-author Meg Cabot is at it again. Her well-known series “The Princess Diaries” made a splash at the box office with every teenage girl’s favorite royal Princess Mia, but tiaras will be taking a backseat in Cabot’s new novel “Big Boned.”

Photo students display work from Japan trip

Last summer, 11 IU undergraduates, graduate students and professors traveled thousands of miles to Osaka, Japan, with one thing on their minds: communication. The group of Americans aimed to capture “communication” in photographic form, and they only had four weeks to do it.

Impossible promises

·

It’s pretty simple, really. I’d like increased government spending, I just don’t want higher taxes. I want all bad things ended immediately, and the number of good things to increase 10-fold. Also, I should really mention that I want to feel safe – all the time. But I don’t want my civil liberties encroached upon, and I don’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Politics of spending

·

Thank God Election Day 2007 is finally behind us. Now we can forget about all the city council members and mayors we just elected and return our focus to national politics.

Show me the progress!

Sky-high executive pay at Fortune 500 companies is nothing new, and although many of us might not like it, CEOs receive gargantuan compensation packages even if they send their companies diving into the dirt.

Take back Assembly Hall

·

Outside of our hatred of buying overpriced books at the bookstores, I cannot think of a single campus cause that can unite students more than our fight for a better student section at IU basketball games.
