Treading through adversity

By Tom Kir · Thursday, April 12,2007 12 a.m.

For most IU seniors, their life perspectives change after graduation. For one IU women’s water polo player, it changed before her senior year even started. In August 2005, Emily Schmitt was preparing for her senior year of college, just a few months before the start of her last water polo season. She set out for a bike ride in an attempt to make the most of one of the last remaining days of summer. While traveling down an unfamiliar road, she was hit by a van and blacked out. “I don’t remember the few minutes before it happened,” Schmitt said. “I had no recollection of the impact or sound. The first real recollection of that night was being in the hospital.”
