Power is sexy

By Anna Piontek · Monday, Oct. 8,2007 8:53 a.m.

Sexual harassment is new to our legal and cultural lexicon, the first cases happening as recently as the 1980s. These cases put the fear of God into some male employers and workers. In order to avoid the reality of power relations in the workplace, women who file sexual harassment lawsuits are routinely derided as uppity, politically correct women who can’t handle a joke.

Cheating our athletes

Monday, Oct. 8,2007 8:47 a.m.

According to recent reports, cheating among NCAA athletes is not only in the news again but it’s being subsidized by their respective universities.

Beneficial ban

By Jacob Stewart and Jake Stewart · Monday, Oct. 8,2007 8:45 a.m.

If in the following weeks students feel the ground begin to shake and see a few bricks come loose from campus buildings, they should not be alarmed. Indiana isn’t exactly along the San Andreas Fault. It’s no earthquake. Rather, it’s the adult smokers of Monroe County grumbling about the limits being placed on their right to privacy and the dangers of government limitation.

Recycling rivals

By Abby Schwimmer and Ab Schwimmer · Monday, Oct. 8,2007 8:44 a.m.

As a loyal School of Public and Environmental Affairs student, it kills me to have to say what I’m about to say. No, really, this is not easy for me, especially given the history of the rivalry between my beloved SPEA and the famously infamous Kelley School of Business. In fact, I’ll probably regret saying this the second I put it down on paper.

Rocktober

By Brian J. McFillen · Monday, Oct. 8,2007 8:43 a.m.

This month, an incredible amount of great live music is coming to Bloomington and the surrounding area – so much so that I’ve taken to calling it “Rocktober” (often with a simulated echo, and always to the embarrassment of everyone around me).

By Matt Dollinger · Monday, Oct. 8,2007 12:03 a.m.

For a good portion of the last decade, IU football has been little more than a punch line. But Saturday the Hoosiers jumped on top early, and the joke was on their opponent.

By Michael Sanserino · Sunday, Oct. 7,2007 11:56 p.m.
