Hogging the ball

·

This is the concept that places Toni Smith's brave and intriguing gesture in a more subtly-lit spot-light. We want to praise her for her courage, reminding us how great our freedom is -- the freedom to dissent and question authority. Still, we wonder about propriety.

'Vagina Monologues' raise awareness, inspire laughter

·

I came into this show with an open mind. At first, I expected, as a cynical male, that I would be grossed out, alienated and overall made to feel awkward by what I thought was going to be a vulgar celebration of women's genitalia.

Fouls, cold second half does in IU

·

WEST LAFAYETTE -- Mackey Arena was a sea of gold and black with the occasional spec of cream and crimson. In front of a crowd of 9,819, the IU women's basketball team (11-14, 4-11 Big Ten) fell to Purdue (22-5, 11-4) for the second time this year. While the last meeting at the RCA Dome left the Hoosiers with only a two-point loss, this contest had Purdue the victors 74-48. Sophomore guard/forward Jenny DeMuth said it was different playing at Purdue instead of a neutral location, but that it shouldn't make a difference in how the team played. "Here it was a lot louder," DeMuth said. "Here everything is on top of you. You feel enclosed, but that doesn't really make a difference. You have to go out there and do what you have to do."

Finally Home

·

In the midst of a season long road trip, the Indiana Invitational will be warmly welcomed, a brief, homestand for the IU water polo team. "It is very fun to play in our own pool and in front of our own crowd," senior All-American Kristin Stanford said. "Everybody is getting really excited, a lot of our families are coming to cheer us on." The friendly confines of the Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatics Center will be a comforting change of pace from the normal road venues the Hoosiers are accustomed to.
