Editor’s Notebook: A musical welcome to Bloomington, in the key of 20 mph

Bloomington has budgeted $125,000 for public art at the Miller-Showers Park gateway. In case the decision makers need another two cents: Don’t put the art next to the road. Put it right in the pavement. If a piece of visual art is spectacular, in all the ways public art...

New alcohol permits offer cheaper option in Bloomington

Downtown Bloomington businesses can apply for new three-way alcohol permits that cost $25,000 and allow restaurants to serve beer, wine and liquor. Applications are open through Nov. 30, according to a community announcement.

Businesses can apply at bton.in/civic . Ordinance 2026-18, approved by the Bloomington City Council, made additional permits available through two eligible state programs: the Downtown Redevelopment District and Courthouse Square Historic District. Unlike traditional permits, the new district permits cannot be sold or transferred. A permit must be returned to the state when it is no longer being used. The $25,000 fee is set by the state. How Bloomington's alcohol permit process will work The application period runs from Nov. 6 through Nov. 30. City staff will first review applications for eligibility before a committee reviews them. Staff will then make recommendations to the Common Council, which will review applications and recommend permits to the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission.

OPINION: Kirkwood needs more police. Gun-free zones are legally shaky

Editor’s Note: All opinions, columns and letters reflect the views of the individual writer and not necessarily those of the IDS or its staffers. Another vicious shooting on Kirkwood Avenue again raises the question of how to address Bloomington’s periodic gun violence. This time — in the early morning of Nov. 1, as students continued to celebrate both Halloween and Indiana football’s hard-fought homecoming win — a shooter drew a gun in a large crowd and injured seven people. In hindsight, gun violence this past weekend was, alas, perfectly predictable.

Candy Stripe Scoop – Is It Real? IU Faces Syracuse Monday (Week Two)

Where: Gainbridge Fieldhouse (Indianapolis, IN) How to Watch: FS1 (and in our forum here) Opponent Glance: The Syracuse Orange are 2-0 head coach Gerry McNamara’s first campaign in charge. They opened with a 16-point victory over New Haven and then drilled Central Connecticut State 102-49 on November 5. During the exhibition season, Syracuse lost to UConn (72-52) and narrowly beat Siena. The Orange are led by Siena transfer Gavin Doty and Kiyan Anthony. Both are 6’5” guards or wings that are averaging better than 15 points per game. Jaeden Mustaf figures to draw the assignment on at least one of those individuals and the Hoosiers will probably lean on a variety of others to defend the second leading offensive weapon for Syracuse. The Orange have not been inclined to play a quick pace (299th in adjusted tempo) so this probably won’t turn into a track meet but IU should have an advantage down low as Syracuse has some height but lacks the kind of bulk Indiana can throw at them with Samet Yigitoglu, Aiden Sherrell and Sam Alexis. IU’s defense has shown the ability to really bother opponents with length and size but the attention to detail on that end has been inconsistent thus far and DeVries will be needing to see 40 minutes of high-intensity defense in order to win.

Syracuse-Indiana matchup recalls glory days as programs seek return

Forty seasons ago, Keith Smart rose up from the baseline and sank a 16-foot jumper with four seconds left to lift Indiana to a one-point win over Syracuse in the NCAA Tournament championship game. It was a magical era when both schools lived near the top of the national rankings. But all these years later, the Hoosiers and Orange are simply searching for a path back into the NCAA Tournament. Syracuse hasn't participated in March Madness since 2021, and Indiana hasn't been there since 2023. Considering that Syracuse (2-0) and Indiana (2-0) are off to fine starts this season -- albeit against outmanned regional opponents -- the winner of Monday night's non-conference clash in Indianapolis will take a valuable step toward earning a coveted NCAA berth. New Syracuse coach Gerry McNamara, who teamed with Carmelo Anthony to help longtime coach Jim Boeheim get his only NCAA championship in 2003, retained just two players from last season's squad that finished 15-17: Sadiq White Jr. and Kiyan Anthony, Carmelo's son. Anthony, who is averaging 15.5 points per game this season, and White (11 ppg, 10 rebounds per game) join Siena transfer Gavin Doty (16 ppg) and Slovenian freshman Mark Morano (12.5 ppg,
