CHICAGO -- With the bleat of a Chinese oboe, the ghostly tone of a conch shell trumpet and the intricate rhythms of East Asian, Central Asian and Western drums, Chicago kicked off a yearlong celebration of world cultures.

To kick it off

n the Indiana Daily Student's sports section, readers get a lot of information about athletes and get snippets of quotes from them but rarely get the chance to experience sports from an athlete's point of view. The IDS and IU's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee have teamed up to start a biweekly column written by the very athletes you often see and read about.

A slut by any other name...

Insulting, maligning, disparaging, sullying. These are the words we use to classify our descriptions of certain other women. These tramps - er, women - are usually dating our friends' ex-boyfriends. It's like that scene from "Sex and the City" when Samantha, one of Carrie's best friends, announces that Natasha is a stupid name. Natasha is Carrie's ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend. Of course she has a stupid name. She has to. Do you understand? My roommate came to me last night, eyes heavy with sadness. "It happened," she said quietly, and it had. Her ex-boyfriend from high school, for whom she still has strong feelings, just told her that he was about to release his new relationship to the public via Facebook.

March of pride

·

There are few students who could carry a gun through Memorial Stadium on game day and receive silent respect from the crowd. But for the members of the IU Pershing Rifle Society, it's just another Saturday. The organization, which traces its roots back to a group formed more than a century ago, presents the American flag at all home football and basketball games and many ceremonial events throughout Bloomington. But despite its time-honored history, the IU Pershing Rifle Society has been plagued in recent years by a lack of interest. Maj. Todd Tinius, a retired Army officer and adviser for the organization, said the society at IU, which is traditionally made up of almost entirely Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets, was once a much more popular organization.
