Jill Behrman Run for the End Zone-Team and Early Registration Deadline
Monday, Oct 1, 2007
More Contact Info: recsport@indiana.edu
Location: HPER or SRSC
Web site: http://www.recsports.indiana.edu
The IU Campus Recreational Sports has been organizing the Run for the End Zone 5K Run and 5K Walk since 1996. Before that, it was offered as a student only, cross country meet at the IU Cross Country Course. As the event expanded, Campus Recreational Sports decided to organize a road race instead that would involve everyone in the IU and Bloomington communities. Thus, the Run for the End Zone was born, beginning and ending in an IU football end zone (just for the fun of it)!

Now, in honor of Jill Behrman, a former IU student and employee of Recreational Sports, Campus Recreational Sports has joined with the greater community in organizing the annual Jill Behrman Run for the End Zone 5K Run/Walk and One Mile Fun Walk. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Jill Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship and Jill’s House.
The Jill Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship is offered by Campus Recreational Sports and Eric and Marilyn Behrman and is open to undergraduate students who exhibit leadership potential and abilities, character and ethical values through their involvement in Recreational Sports, and the University and community organizations. Jill's House provides a temporary, homelike residence for patients undergoing outpatient cancer treatment at the Midwest Proton Radiotherapy Institute facility in Bloomington.

Informatics Colloquia: From Transience to Transcendence: The Psychological Impact ofthe Awareness of Mortality
Friday, Sep 21, 2007
Time: 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM
This talk will provide an overview of terror management theory and research. Briefly, the theory posits that the human cognitive ability to be aware of mortality, juxtaposed with biological proclivities to live, creates the potential for extreme anxiety. People manage this anxiety by attempting to live out their lives as significant beings in a symbolic seemingly eternal reality, rather than as transient animals fated only to death. This is accomplished by investing in a cultural system of beliefs that imbues existence with meaning, order, and permanence, and provides mechanisms by which people can feel enduringly significant. To date, over 300 empirical studies have supported predictions derived from the theory, offering implications for understanding diverse forms of social behavior. The present talk will focus on research exploring the types of stimuli and psychological threats that provoke thoughts of death and the implications this has for understanding reactions to others in our social world in such contexts as medical, health, and political decision scenarios. Discussion of how these ideas can inform and be informed by informatics research is encouraged. Biography Jamie Arndt is Associate Professor of Social Psychology in the Department of Psychological Sciences at the University of Missouri, Columbia. He received his Ph.D. in Psychology and the University of Arizona.
