Experience What It Means to Be “Fearless”!
“Fearless” is the name of the photography project Jeff Sheng, lecturer at the University of California, Santa Barbara, started 4 years ago about “out” high school and collegiate athletes who openly self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer.
Since 2003, he has photographed almost 50 athletes across the United States and recently began exhibiting the project at various high schools and colleges as part of what he named, “Fearless Campus Tour.” The project is still ongoing and his goal is to photograph over 100 athletes before it will be published into a book next summer.

Cans Across America
On Wednesday (Nov. 7), the Indiana Memorial Union Dining Services at Indiana University Bloomington will try to break the Guinness® World Record for the most non-perishable food collected in a 24-hour period.
In 2006, an event called Cans Across America was introduced at colleges across the United States. The objective of the event was to break the Guinness® World Record for the most non-perishable food collected in a 24-hour period.
Last year's national collection fell just short of the current world record of 221,028.85 pounds, which included 2,500 pounds of food brought in by the IU community. Indiana Memorial Union Dining Services is set to make this year's event bigger and better than last year.
"Our local challenge last year was 2,500 pounds. This year, we've raised the bar to 5,000," said Steve Mangan, general manager of Dining Services at the Indiana Memorial Union.
All of the food collected by the Indiana Memorial Union will be donated locally to the Hoosier Hills Food Bank. Cans Across America 2007 will be held from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. Nov. 7 in all Indiana Memorial Union retail dining locations.
Cans Across America is a unique promotion because it combines a nationwide stop hunger initiative with a rewarding experience in which all students can be proud to participate. Many students are concerned about social issues and the communities in which they live, and this promotion is a great way for them to get involved and make a positive impact. Students, faculty, staff and the general community are encouraged to participate in this initiative.
"We are very excited to make this year's Cans Across America event even bigger and better than last year's, and we are confident that the record will soon belong to us! We invite everyone who is willing to come out and contribute to this great cause," Mangan said.
To find out how you can participate, please contact Indiana Memorial Union Dining Services at 812-855-1777, or visit www.imu.indiana.edu.
IU World's Fare
Indiana University Bloomington will celebrate its international diversity on Nov. 8 with the IU World's Fare. Ethnic food from every continent (except Antarctica) and performances by 22 international student groups highlight this first-time-ever event.
Festivities begin at 5 p.m. in Alumni Hall in the Indiana Memorial Union, 900 E. Seventh St. The event kicks off International Education Week.
IU Union Board and the Office of International Services have designed the IU World's Fare to give the university community and greater Bloomington community the chance to share the cultures that more than 4,000 international students and 1,500 international scholars bring to the area. In addition, a poster exhibition will permit many of those scholars to showcase the research that they came to Bloomington to complete.
"IU's international students and scholars provide the campus and community with a remarkable resource -- they bring the world to our doorstep," said Christopher Viers, associate vice president for international services. "The IU World's Fare is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate their contributions to our vibrant intellectual community."
International Education Week is celebrated worldwide by colleges, universities, embassies, international organizations, businesses and community organizations. It aims to recognize the value of exchange and interaction of students and scholars around the world. This year's theme is "International Education: Fostering global citizenship and respect."
IU Bloomington's celebration includes a concert by the Latin American Ensemble at Auer Hall, International Family Night (co-sponsored by the City of Bloomington), and performances at the Monroe County Library Auditorium, as well as lectures, discussions, and exhibits. The complete schedule is available at http://www.indiana.edu/~intlserv/.
IUB has special reasons to celebrate this year. For the first time, international students comprise 10 percent of the student population. The number of new international students that International Services oriented to study at IU and in the U.S. exceeded 1,000, also for the first time.
"When Union Board contacted us last year and said they wanted to develop a cultural event that would feature the international diversity we have on campus, it meshed with our hopes to find a good and exciting beginning to International Education Week," said Sandy Britton, director of the Leo R. Dowling International Center. "It's been great working with them, and we think the event will be fun for everyone."
