Job forecast up for December graduates

By Beka Mech · Tuesday, Jan. 2,2007 5:31 p.m.

Already having secured a job, senior Libby Spille might have an advantage over most other December graduates, but IU Career Services representatives said other students graduating early shouldn't be too worried because they will enter a more receptive job market than in the past.

Hoosiers almost there

By Alyson Brodsy and Ryan Corazza · Monday, Dec. 11,2006 10:40 a.m.

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- There the Hoosiers were, at it again. Down five points with 2:01 to play, freshman Joey Shaw stripped the ball from the University of Kentucky's Ramel Bradley near IU's basket. Shaw hit a layup. The Hoosiers were now down three.

Record breaking

IU graduate Aaron Waltke wears his 160th shirt in his attempt to break the world record for most T-shirts worn at once. Senior Adam Hoelzel, left, helps recent IU graduate Aaron Waltke put on his 159th shirt in Waltke's attempt to break the world record for most T-shirts worn at once. Waltke succeeded in putting on 160 shirts, breaking the record set by Matt McAllister in Santa Barbara, Calif., on Sept. 15. McAllister wore 155 shirts in his record attempt. Waltke had to send in paperwork months in advance to get clearance for the official record attempt. Guinness researches past records and accepts or rejects proposals to break the records. Waltke said he will send Guinness World Records a video tape of the event, as well as newspaper clippings and pictures. He said he doesn't expect to get a spot at the Guinness museums but said it's possible that the record could be in the "Guinness Book of World Records."

'76 ring worth more than cash

By DeAntae Prince · Sunday, Dec. 10,2006 11:56 p.m.

The recent selling of the Hoosiers' 1976 basketball championship ring has provoked many evaluations of the item itself. But what was lost among all the hoopla is the man behind the ring. The first 1976 championship ring sold on eBay for $50,100 on Dec. 3. But this price does not capture the value put on the ring by its late owner Harold Andreas, former player Kent Benson said.

The way of the future

By Alyson Brodsy and Jessica Simendinger · Sunday, Dec. 10,2006 11:36 p.m.

In light of Lindsay Lohan's recent e-mail debacle and the fact that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I have decided to take this opportunity to make a similar public statement in response to Lindsay's. Here is my own e-mail. Please enjoy.

Seasons of Love

By Alyson Brodsy and Grace Low · Sunday, Dec. 10,2006 11:33 p.m.

If the frenzied mob of angry soccer moms descending upon Target this past weekend like a pack of rabid bears after hibernation was any indication that the holiday season is here, a slew of secularized religious holidays are right around the corner. The tantalizing jewelry sales at Kay, the kitschy knickknacks at seasonal kiosks and even those creepy Bratz dolls are calling to your credit card: "Buy this or you will have failed as a friend, child, boyfriend, parent ..." With the apparent commercialization of Christmas, Hanukkah and the Winter Solstice, it is very easy to be jaded to the possibility of the season.

Call in the cavalry

By Alyson Brodsy and Brian Stewart · Sunday, Dec. 10,2006 11:32 p.m.

It is always a sure sign that one neither knows nor cares about Iraq if he or she buys into the masochistic myth that the source of jihadist violence is U.S. foreign policy. Those people now counsel deference to the "wise men" who cut their teeth under George H.W. Bush, whose aversion to "foreign adventures" apparently stands in pleasant contrast with current management.

Week of the living-dead

By Alyson Brodsy · Sunday, Dec. 10,2006 11:31 p.m.

If college is to prepare students for the cold, ravaged wasteland that lies outside the pearly Sample Gates, then there's one lesson white-collared slaves-to-be must learn during their brief tenures. Freshmen, we hate being the one to break this to you, but it's better that you learn now than have your bright-eyed optimism slowly beaten out by the University's two-by-four of disappointment over the next few years. What we are about to tell you will hurt more than learning the truth about Santa Claus: the disbelief, the anger, the betrayal. You have to stay strong because the next paragraph will expose the raw malevolence that courses through the veins of the faculty.
