Racism wrongly crowned Elvis king

By Ryan Whirty · Wednesday, Feb. 11,2004 4:19 p.m.

Herbivore Heaven

By Holly Johnson and Holy Johnson · Wednesday, Feb. 11,2004 3:57 p.m.

For a sleepy Midwestern town nestled deep in Indiana quarry country, Bloomington certainly stands out in more than just a few respects. It is politically liberal-minded, to be sure, drawing on a rich repository of University-educated intellectuals, corporate types and activists. It's tolerant: take a stroll through the Sample Gates and onto Kirkwood Ave. at any given hour and you're sure to see North Face-clad frat boys, Prada-carrying fashionistas, Little 500 cyclists swathed in spandex and dreadlocked skateboarders perfecting their skills at People's Park.

By Holly Johnson and Holy Johnson · Wednesday, Feb. 11,2004 1:03 a.m.

When sophomore Elliott Robinson moved into Eigenmann Hall last year, he was thrilled to find a campus convenience store located in his building's foyer. He was startled, however, when he perused the receipt from his first foray into C-store shopping. That bag of beef jerky he'd been coveting? Eight dollars. Had Robinson sauntered across the street to the Village Pantry at the corner of Tenth and Union streets, he would have found the same product for two dollars less.

Hoosiers travel to Penn State looking for a win

By Tyler Hoeppner and Tyler V. Hoeppner · Wednesday, Feb. 11,2004 12:56 a.m.

Following Saturday's double-overtime loss to Iowa, senior A.J. Moye had a talk with his teammates. He said he spoke with emotion and from the heart to let his teammates know how he felt with this being his last year. IU (11-9, 5-4 Big Ten) will take the floor at 6 p.m. tonight at Penn State to see if that message has finally sunk in. "Everybody knows what it takes now, there's no doubt in my mind," Moye said. "We're going to give everything we've got to win. We saw what happens when we take stuff for granted out there on that floor." Emotions got the best of several players last week after the Hoosiers dropped three straight games, two of those at home. Moye and sophomore forward Sean Kline both talked about the lack of team effort, without naming names.
