I never thought we’d have to write this letter. But the severity of the threats against IU student media, by our own university, warrant immediate action. Next week, on April 25, the IDS will stage a one-day walkout — the first in its 157-year history.

The financial situation of the IDS — and IU student media in general — has been an ongoing story and struggle. This semester, an IU Student Media Committee, which @nicnapier1 and I are a part of, is aiming to find a solution. Read about it here:

The IDS means everything to me. I would not be the journalist and person I am today without it, and I know many other staffers feel the same way. Not to mention the role of the IDS at IU and in the Bloomington community is invaluable. Please take time to read this today.

Nearly two years ago, @idsnews ran out of money. Today, the IDS is running a deficit around -$450,000, without a permanent financial plan. We are waiting for an answer with time we cannot afford. A somber update for this Student Press Freedom Day:

If you have time in your day, please take the time to read this special story, where I profiled a horse, Luna, and how she impacts the lives of children. We all can learn a lot about ourselves through perspective and helping those in need.

After the number of police cars in the Dunn Meadow area diminished, protesters were told to “relax” at 6:31 a.m. as they believed there was a lower risk of police encroachment on the camp. They spread out around the encampment with some going back into their tents. 6/x

IU refuses to support student media. Next Thursday will provide a glimpse of a possible future without @idsnews as it exists today — a future we will face if IU continues to make cuts to our newsroom.

@idsnews For years the university has rejected proposals from the IDS to solve our financial issues. Meanwhile, the IDS is forced to decrease professional staff and reduce the print paper. There is nothing left to cut without substantially changing the IDS.

@idsnews IU sees student media as a business, rather than a learning lab that provides students invaluable experience and produces vital news coverage, whose contribution to the university and community can’t be captured by a budget line. Ultimately, this becomes a press freedom issue.
