IU students honored with Founders Day

KATRINA CRAWFORD
Indiana Daily Student
Excitement was running high Saturday at the IU Auditorium as hundreds of students, parents, faculty members, and administrators prepared themselves for the Founders Day ceremony and celebration.
Several families stood outside with their honorees before attending the ceremony, which is held to celebrate academic excellence and recognize students who achieved a 3.5 GPA or higher in 1994.
And inside the building, faculty members shared in the exhilaration as they put on their academic robes before marching into the Auditorium.
The ceremony started at 2 p.m., when the first strong notes of the organ were heard throughout the Auditorium. The organ was played as the platform party proceeded to its place on the stage.
The Auditorium then hushed as the ceremony began with a few words from IU President Myles Brand.
He later introduced Ritchie Hoffman, the campus minister of Christian Student Fellowship who gave the invocation.
Hoffman produced a chuckle from the audience after he said "we even honor those moms and dads who came to honor their sons and daughters who did not have a choice in being here."
The IU Jazz Ensemble, conducted by IU music Professor David Baker, played an original composition titled "Wells-Spring." Written by Baker, the songs were dedicated to IU Chancellor Herman B Wells and were played in honor of the University's 175th birthday.
Brand called the performance "brilliant." He talked about lU's history, and said "our Founders Day ceremony is a reminder of that outstanding history."
After Brand spoke, he turned the podium over to IU Vice President Gerald Bepko. Bepko, also IUPUI chancellor, awarded several faculty members with various awards.
One faculty award winner was Rita Maremore, professor of speech and hearing sciences. She said she was excited to be awarded the Pinnel Award for University Service.
The student speaker, senior Jules Lin, followed Bepko. His speech reflected on his years at IU and offered friendly advice for other students.
Lin first defined a "Hoosier" using the University's standards, and then speculated about what lU's founders would think about the campus now. He also addressed the stories he could tell his grandchildren about his days on the IU campus — including surviving dorm food.
The speech ended with his encouragement to all students to try and obtain the goals they seek and his own definition of a "Hoosier."
"The definition of a Hoosier is inside of you and me," Lin said.
The honors students were then presented with Kenneth Gros Louis, IU vice president and IU-Bloomington chancellor, offering the first words of recognition.
"(It) is (a) time to pause, to say to you, your parents, that we celebrate you because you are among the best and the brightest," Gros Louis said. "You have my affection and my very best wishes."
All in attendance joined together to sing "Chimes of Indiana," and "Hail to Old IU" after all the students were honored.
Brand then invited the crowd to join a celebration at the Indiana Memorial Union.
"I think this is terrific. I'm very proud of each and every one of them," Brand said after the ceremony. "It's a great day to celebrate the quality of the University by celebrating the quality of the students. I could not be more pleased."

IU Awards Degrees to 35 Area Graduates

Birch Bayh, former U.S. Senator from Indiana, was speaker at the 165th commencement of the Indiana University Bloomington campus. He received his law degree from IU, and was given an honorary Doctor of Laws degree.

- - - Miles Andrew Cline, P.O. Box 1728, bachelor of science in education; - - -(Reporter, Martinsville, Indiana, May 1995.)

Congratulations to our 1995 Most Valuable Graduate
Miles Andrew Cline
I want to nominate my big brother, Andy (Miles Andrew Cline), as Most Valuable Graduate of 1995. He is definitely most valuable to me. He will graduate with an education degree, which is fitting, because he has been the greatest teacher in my life. He has taught me about winning and losing, standing for what I believe in (even if it's not

always popular), and to be my own person. He's also taught me everything I know about the game of basketball, vital knowledge for any IU student! I couldn't have made it through my first three years here at IU without him, without his guidance and patience. I know he will be successful it whatever he does, because that is just the kind of person he is. I wish I could be more like him. He is the strongest person I've ever known and the best friend I've ever had!
Andy was nominated by Cindy Cline. He was chosen in a reader write-in contest sponsored by the IDS. May 5, 1995. Indiana Daily Student, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana.

Sink-Cline
Beth A. Sink of Bloomington and Andrew Cline of Martinsville are planning an Aug. 4 wedding at Salem Separate Baptist Church in Spencer.
Sink is the daughter of Mary Ann and Roger Sink of Spencer. She received a bachelor of arts degree in education in 1996 from Indiana State Univiersity. She is completing a master's degree from Indiana Wesleyan University. She isemployed by Edgewood Junior High as a sixth-grade math teacher.
Cline is the son of Claudia and Sam Cline of Martinsville. He received his bachelor of science degree in education from Indiana University in 1995. He is completing a master's degree in school administration at Indiana University. He is employed by Edgewood Junior High as a science teacher and athletic director. He is also the Edgewood High School girls' track coach. (Publisher; date of publication; unknown.)

Indian Creek welcomes Andy Cline back home
By Amy Hillenburg
Indian Creek High Schools new assistant principal fits right in - that's because Andy Cline has come back home. He graduated from ICHS in 1990, lived in the area, and just finished his master's degree at IU Bloomington. Cline is no stranger to southern Indiana.
He said the staff and Principal Bob Duke gave him a warm welcome last week as he began a career in the administrative side of public education. Cline didn't know Duke personally, but said they think along the same lines. "We're both for an open-door policy, and we want to keep the communication lines open between parents, teachers and

the community," Cline said
He's spent 12 years as an educator and coach with Bean Blossom and Richmond (Richland) Schools, serving the last seven years as a teacher, coach and athletic director at Edgewood Junior High, four miles west of Bloomington.
It was a grueling schedule, starting at 5 a.m. and ending some nights at 11 p.m.
"I wasn't married for five of those years, so it didn't matter when I came home," Cline said. He still wonders how he managed to do it all.
His wife Beth is a sixth-grade math teacher at Edgewood and said their budding relationship got a lot of help from fellow teachers who thought they would make a good couple. They have a son now, Lucas, who is six months old.
The family will stay at their home in Bloomington - at least for awhile.
Good opportunity
Although Cline was eager to try his hand at administration, the position at ICHS opened up quickly, and he had little time to mull things over. He's glad he made the decision to come to Indian Creek. "It's a good opportunity because it will make me more rounded in my career," Cline said. "The administrative work I did as an athletic director actually parallels what I'm doing now."
Cline didn't set out to be a teacher. "I went to IU for a sports medicine degree. But found myself going back to Indian Creek and other schools, donating my time with kids and working at the fisheries," he recalled.
"My dad kept saying that teaching would be a better fit for me than sporrts medicine. There are teachers in our family - my cousin O. J. Sloop was at Center Grove. I think he served as assistant principal and athletic director."
Andy's father, Sam Cline, is a Morgan County historian, genealogist, and former county councilman.
As an assistant principal, Cline will supervise the discipline policy, attendance and truancy. Duke has directed him to formulate an orientation for freshman next year, so he won't be looking for things to do.
Cline believes the biggest challanges to educators include meeting the No Child Left Behind mandates and working with the state budget. "Having to watch every penny just makes our job that much harder," he remarked.
Cline's main goal for this year is to understand the legal structure of being an administrator and reassociating himself with his native community. "I've had a wonderful reception. We have a strong staff - some of them were my teachers," he smiled. (The Reporter-Times, Martinsville, Indiana, September 5, 2003.)

Administrator up for state honor
By JO ELLEN WERKING WEEDMAN
Staff writer Oct. 3, 2005
As assistant principal at Indian Creek High School, Andy Cline is the boss of some of his former high school teachers.
Cline is a former Brave, who returned to his alma mater three years ago as assistant principal. He is in the running for the State's District Nine assistant principal of the year award.
He received district honors when he was named assistant principal of the year by the Indiana Association of School Principals. The district award drew nominations from seven counties in south central Indiana.
Now, Cline is a candidate to win the honor of statewide assistant principal of the year at a luncheon this week in downtown Indianapolis.
In his third year as an assistant principal, Cline said he was surprised he won the award.
"In our district there are some very big schools and a lot of people with a lot more experience than I," Cline said.
The former student has made big improvements in the school in the short time he's been there, teachers and other administrators wrote in letters of recommendation for the award.
Cline has expanded the freshman orientation program to include a motivational speaker and packets of information for parents.
Other current endeavors include making sure the high school is in compliance with state and federal laws and starting a student of the month program this year. Most of Cline's job involves disciplining students, so this year he also plans to start a positive postcard program.
Teachers will write positive comments about students and mail them home to parents, Cline said.
Before returning to Indian Creek, Cline spent eight years as a classroom teacher and seven years as the athletic director at Edgewood Junior High School in Ellettsville.

Thanks for a job well done
The Signal staff recognizes the principals for their work at IC The Signal Staff Editorial
More often than not, when a high school student is reprimanded for breaking a rule or simply acting out of line, he or she proceeds to place full blame of the situation on the shoulders of the person who must decide the punishment. Whether the consequences involve an hour detention, a Saturday school, or even a suspension for any number of days, it never seems to be the accused's fault. He or she often declares the administrator "has it out for me," "totally overreacted," or "it

was my first time" in regards to whatever the penalty for their actions may be. This is where we, the Signal staff, feel students are stepping over the line.
In the high school scene, the school administrators handle punishment. At IC, it is specifically dealt with by Principal, Mr. Robert Duke and Assistant Principal, Mr. Andy Cline. Because of what their jobs entail, many students have come to view them in a bad light. What they fail to recognize, however, is that they are merely doing what their contracts instruct them to do, which is maintaining order on school grounds. We, as a staff, would like to go against the flow and rather than criticize Duke and Cline for what they do, thank them for a job well done. IC is more than lucky to have such fine administrators overseeing our time spent at school, and we think it is time for students to stop focusing on the ways they "inconvenience" them and to look at the positive impacts they have had on our school.
With all of the attention focused on the punishments our principals hand out each day, we students often forget how encouraging and sociable Duke and Cline are. We may not know of the situations with principals in other schools, but we do know how much we appreciate walking into our school each day to the smiling faces of principals who not only know us by name but also genuinely care about how we are doing. Do you ever notice how the only time they are not smiling is when a student misbehaves and they are forced, by contract, to take action? Do you not notice the looks of disappointment that cross their faces when they return to their offices to find students sitting in the chairs by their doors? It is because they know we are better than that and hate seeing us acting so immaturely.
Perhaps the problem here rests not within our administrators; perhaps it rests within us. If we could all grow up and stop getting into trouble, they would not have to hand out punishments to each kid that passes through their office walls.
The Indiana Association of School Principals recently named Cline the District Nine Assistant Principal of the Year, and we, the Signal staff, firmly believe that he is more than deserving. Both Cline and Duke display all of the characteristics a school could need in their principals. They do not receive nearly as much recognition for all of their hard work as they deserve. Thus, we ask of the entire student body of IC to take into consideration how fortunate we are to have such outstanding

individuals as our school administrators. It does not hurt to show some appreciation and gratitude and shout a simple "thank you" instead of a "why did you give him a Saturday school?"
