It was almost like theater in the round when the keynote speaker for IU Bloomington’s Black History Month began to speak. Feminist theorist and cultural critic bell hooks played to a standing-room-only audience at Whittenberger Auditorium Feb. 5, inviting those who were standing in the aisles to come and join her on the stage. Read about it at this Web site:

After a one-year hiatus, the IUB Division of Recreational Sports put on its 24-hour fund-raiser for Indiana Special Olympics last weekend. Among participants were IU freshmen Paul Bozgo (left) assisting Brian Rosenzweig, who in this case was serving as a human bowling ball, in one of 50 recreational sports activities that raised $15,000. Since its inception in 1976, SOS has raised more than a half million dollars for Special Olympians in the state.

No, it’s not the set of ER we have pictured
here. Rather, it’s a photograph on the set of IU’s newest television
commercial, which was filmed in Bloomington last month. Assistant
director John Dombro watches the monitor while director of photography
Dave Kessler films a scene at the IUB School of Nursing building.
The TV spot, which focuses on faculty excellence at IU, is now being
aired. Read about it (and view it on line) in today’s Home Pages.
