Hoosiers display growth in tough defeat

·

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. – If a picture is worth a thousand words, it takes only one to describe the look on Jeremiah Rivers’ face moments after Saturday’s loss to Illinois: devastation. With IU coach Tom Crean by his side, the junior guard slowly walked across the court toward the IU bench with a look on his face that epitomized the clichéd words “agony of defeat.” This was not just any loss.

Hoosiers beat at the buzzer by Illini

·

One shot changed everything. With four seconds on the clock, Illinois took a timeout. Instead of focusing on Illini guard Demetri McCamey, who had already scored 17 points and dished eight assists, Crean prepared for his equally dangerous teammates. McCamey in-bounded the ball and received a hand-off pass before driving to his right, shooting over senior guard Devan Dumes and freshman forward Christian Watford. As his shot slid through the net, the final horn blared on a Hoosier 72-70 loss.

Students break out of job norms

Valerious said she called the man who owns both the business and the bikes. “I left a message being like, ‘I’m your woman, seriously!’” she said. But Valerious is just one of the students at IU with a somewhat crazy job.

Judicial boards discuss Facebook in courtrooms

·

Do compromising Facebook photos constitute tangible evidence? Does looking through a private online photo album mean a breach of privacy? During IU Student Association’s second-annual judicial conference Saturday, judicial board members debated those questions.

Why dat? Who dat? Wat?

·

I can understand the need to protect a company’s image and trademark, but to trademark “Who dat?” not only encourages unhealthy grammar but makes little sense on what counts as property.

Let’s dismiss the curry delusion

·

As a first-generation Indian-American, I have substantial experience with Indian cuisine, but I felt completely out of the loop when it gained popularity and started being referred to as “curry.” Was I less cultured than I thought? Had my mother failed to cook this trendy dish at home?

Drop the deadline

Withdraw from a course after the beginning of the second week of the semester, and the dreaded W will land on your transcript.

Roeder is no MLK, Jr.

·

Not only is the mention of a staunch advocate of nonviolence incontestably out of place here, but the use of a cultural hero like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to further the agenda of a murderer and the violent movement behind him is also sick.
