GUEST COLUMN: My arrest in Dunn Meadow is IUPD’s mistake and Whitten’s embarrassment https://t.co/AjWu2LP9AN

FROM THE EDITORS: IU student media is under threat by our own university. If we don’t act now to fight against potential budget cuts, we may not recover. So, on April 25, the IDS will stage a one-day walkout.

@IU_Wells senior @savannahsue42, called a "first time author/crochet sensation" by Bloomington's own Rick Morgenstern, presented "Retro Crochet Style" this week to a packed house of Wells Scholars. Come see Savannah tonight @morgsbooks, 6:30 pm.

And, of course, to @sykescooper, who organized the whole activity.

[IU Wells Scholars @IU_Wells]

To mark the beginning of the new semester, @IU_Wells Freshmen joined forces with other Scholars to remove invasive species behind Harlos House. Thanks to Mike Girvin, @IUBloomington landscape coordinator, for supervising this activity!

Awful story but excellent reporting by our own @IU_Wells Scholar @EmmaUber, writing for @TB_Times this summer.

[Emma Uber @EmmaUber7]

A Dunedin man fired 30 rounds from his AR-15 at someone he believed to be an intruder. In actuality, the man was his pool cleaner.

Under Florida's Stand Your Ground law, the homeowner will not face charges.

Very proud of our own @IU_Wells Emma Uber and her prestigious summer internship @TB_Times!

[Emma Uber @EmmaUber7]

Today was my first day as an intern at the @TB_Times!

I'm thrilled to be spending the summer in St. Petersburg covering breaking news. I can't wait to get to know this gorgeous community and tell some stories along the way!

Obligatory first-day-of-work photo I sent my Mom:

@IU_Wells Freshmen @global_iu spent an intense weekend in Berlin, wandering through downtown Berlin & listening to excellent guides at the House of the Wannsee-Konferenz @hausderwannsee1 & the Wannsee villa of painter Max Liebermann @LiebermannVilla.

[IU Wells Scholars @IU_Wells]

Before enjoying a wonderful concert of American music with @BerlinPhil, @IU_Wells Freshman were able to meet up wirth our amazing alum Noah Bendix-Balgley, @BerlinPhil’s concertmaster and ask him questions about his incredible career. @global_iu, @IUBloomington.
