A small card in IU’s reference library was imprinted with a brief definition of the word “Hoosier.” Jeffrey Graf, a reference associate at the Herman B Wells Library, thought its explanation was too brief, so he produced a large file of information and started a struggle that has been on IU’s campus for quite some time.
A small card in IU’s reference library was imprinted with a brief definition of the word “Hoosier.” Jeffrey Graf, a reference associate at the Herman B Wells Library, thought its explanation was too brief, so he produced a large file of information and started a struggle that has been on IU’s campus for quite some time.

It’s somewhat fitting that IU couldn’t pull out its win against Northwestern in regulation. The 88-80 overtime win in the finale of the regular season just wouldn’t have been right if it didn’t feature a time of uncertainty, which has been the only constant for the 2009-10 IU men’s basketball season.
