Tucson aces LGBTQ rating

Tucson was rated with a perfect score for LGBTQ treatment BY BENNY SISSON The Daily Wildcat

The Human Rights Campaign released an annual list scoring cities around the country on how they treat their LGBTQ residents, and three Arizona cities scored a 100 percent. The HRC releases this list based on data from its Municipal Equality Index, which lays out how a city can and how cities do support lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning people who work and live there, even outside of the state or federal government, according to the HRC website. Tempe, Tucson and Phoenix all received a perfect score based on the HRC’s criteria, which included relationship recognition, municipality as employer and other factors that place each city

The UA Disability Resource Center works with students who may need certain accommodations in academics and campus life, but some students are saying there are communication failures between the DRC and students. While the DRC helps many students at the UA, some students are expressing concerns that are a result of a disconnect between the DRC, faculty around campus and the students. Jessica Meilech, a pre-business freshman, said the DRC is a wonderful resource and she is happy with all the help she is receiving, but that the communication and promotion from all ends could be stronger. “There is a real lack of communication between students, teachers and the DRC,” Meilech said. “I am a good self-advocate, so I’ve managed to make it work, but I know there’s probably a lot of kids that are [struggling], even with this program as a really good support system.” Some of the accommodations for students who require DRC help do not happen fast enough, Meilech said, such as note-taking. Students can receive class notes for each day from a designated note taker, so they can stay focused in class and still get the content on paper. The process, however, takes time

TEMPE — The Arizona Board of Regents president proposed a policy revision she said would change the tuition-setting process for state universities during the regents’ meeting at Arizona State University on Thursday. Eileen Klein, president of the board of regents, gave her report to the regents, which focused on the tuition and feesetting process and her desire to make those processes more transparent. Klein also proposed increasing student involvement in the tuition process, as well as the tuitionsetting calendar. Klein said the biggest thing she would like to see changed is more individualized discussions among the three Arizona public universities — ASU, Northern Arizona University and the UA. Under her proposed tuition-setting calendar, the board of regents

Regents discuss college pipeline, fees BY ETHAN MCSWEENEY The Daily Wildcat

TEMPE — The Arizona Board of Regents discussed issues with the “college-going pipeline” and transparency of student fees on the last day of its meeting at Arizona State University on Friday . Regents Chair Mark Killian said K-12 education in Arizona is struggling to send students on to college and that improvements needs to be made. He added that there are many challenges to operating a high quality high school in Arizona and sending students through the “pipeline” to college. Ten percent of high schools

She suggested the regents use their relationship with the Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction sitting on the board to better address issues with the state’s K-12 education. Student Regents Valerie Hanna and Mark Naufel also presented a student regent report to the board for the first time.

Hanna said students are “excited” over the potential changes to the tuition-setting process as proposed by Klein. Hanna also said students continue to express concern with the transparency of fees. She added that the majority of fees are supported by students and many came about because of students. “There are just some fees out there that we’re not so sure about,” Hanna said. “It’s not super clear how they came about, what they’re being spent on.” Student government leaders from Arizona’s three state universities — the UA, ASU and Northern Arizona University — attended the regents meeting at ASU on Thursday. Naufel said students he’s spoken with have had difficulty finding on-campus employment.

Alpha Chi Omega sorority hosted its first-ever foodoriented philanthropy event at the UA on Friday to bring attention to domestic violence. “The purpose of this event [was] to spread domestic violence awareness and how it is such a prominent issue in our community,” said Ana Maldonadl, a family studies senior. Entrance to Pizza Pie with Alpha Chi was $5, and everyone received a soda and two slices of homemade pizza provided by Alpha Chi Omega’s team of chefs. Katelyn Connors, vice president of philanthropy for Alpha Chi Omega and an elementary education senior, said the money raised from the philanthropy event will be donated to a local shelter for domestic violence victims called Emerge! Center Against Domestic Abuse. “We want everyone to have a good time, but at the same time we want them to walk away knowing they did something and that they took the pledge to end domestic violence,” Connors said. “I think we are giving a voice to something that isn’t talked about very much.” According to Emerge’s website, it is committed to improving and expanding services to all members of the community who are experiencing domestic abuse. Its mission is to provide the opportunity to create, sustain and celebrate a life free from abuse. “There are so many resources out there and so many struggling

with a score on the list. These scores are particularly interesting for many Arizona residents due to a high jump for two of them in a oneyear time span, with Tempe only scoring 72 percent, and Tucson receiving a score of 90 percent in 2013. This quick jump is exciting for Arizona residents who believe in equality, but also brings up questions on the validity and criteria of the HRC. Kat Hermanson, the lead desk assistant for the LGBTQ Resource Center and a sophomore studying gender and women’s studies, said she questions the HRC and feels that the scores are imbalanced. “I think there’s a lot of problems with the HRC both historically and currently,” Hermanson said. “One thing that I would say [is] that [with] the very essence of the society we live in that’s very cis-sexist and hetero-normative, it is unfair to give any city 100 percent on a rating.” Hermanson said she knows of transgender women who have been assaulted in Tucson, which isn’t portrayed through this new rating by the HRC. “Even though I love Tucson and I think we are very progressive in a lot of ways, giving a 100 percent rating to any city is kind of turning a blind eye to a lot of the violence that is still happening,” Hermanson said.

with it that if we give it a voice, maybe we can lessen that struggle,” Connors said. Connors said domestic violence is not an easy topic to talk about, and Alpha Chi Omega wants to give a voice to this growing concern. “This is not just an Arizona issue; it is a nationwide issue,” said Caitlyn Sprong, a chapter consultant for Alpha Chi Omega. According to the Emerge website, about 31 percent of women in the U.S. will report physical or sexual abuse by a partner in their lifetime, and over three women are killed every day by either a husband or boyfriend.

with ASUA Pride Alliance also said they feel the rankings may not be an accurate representation. Greg Daniels, co-director of Pride Alliance, said he was surprised to find Phoenix on the list. “I wasn’t surprised that Tucson got an ‘A,’ but Phoenix, I was like, wait a minute,” Daniels said. “Their city was the one that came up with the bathroom bill. That was a really transphobic piece, [and] Maricopa County is where the largest concentration of social conservatives are. I was very surprised that Phoenix was a part of that list.” The bathroom bill made it a crime for transgender individuals to use the bathroom they identified with, and they were only allowed to use the bathroom that corresponded to the gender they were assigned at birth. Localized to the UA, Tucson may also have contributing factors that show the score is a “cop-out.” Chris Sogge, graduate assistant with LGBTQ Affairs, said that the UA has resources for transgender students that are not offered to faculty, which is unfair and not worth a 100 percent rating. “There is gender-confirming healthcare for students, which includes if you do inpatient hormone treatments, so you have to go to Campus Health [Service] and they will give you the injections,” Sogge said. “… But for faculty and staff, there is nothing, which sucks.”

According to an article in the Center for American Progress, 6,410 women were killed by a boyfriend or husband who used a gun during the years 20012012, which is more than the number of U.S. troops killed in combat during both the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. In the spring, Alpha Chi Omega will also host its second annual Lyre Games. The games are an obstacle course event for every organization on the UA campus to attend. Teams will be formed and will compete in the various obstacle courses. Whichever team has the fastest time wins. “I think UA students will benefit from coming to the event

because not only will they have fun, but they will also learn about a problem that is really big in our community, and hopefully they will get educated towards the importance of spreading awareness,” Maldonadl said. This event will also benefit the sorority’s philanthropy, and proceeds will go back into the Alpha Chi Omega Foundation. “We want to make sure our women are sending a positive note towards what our philanthropy is,” Maldonadl said.

The board of regents took up two issues important to ASU on Friday. The regents voted to approve the first phase of a renovation project to Sun Devil Stadium. A new student section will be added during the phase. The stadium renovation project has a budget of $256 million, with $65.7 million allocated during the first phase. The regents also approved ASU’s request to complete its integration of the Thunderbird School of Global Management.

During the spring semester, a tuition discussion would start in January with each university president announcing a statement regarding their general ideas for tuition, under Klein’s tuition-setting calendar revision. The regents would then visit each university in February, March and April to have a more in-depth discussion regarding the universities’ tuition plans. At the end of April, Klein said, all three university presidents would announce their tuition plans together, and then there would be a statewide hearing open for members of the public to share their thoughts and ideas.

UA Professor creates traffic-decreasing app BY ALYSSA SCHLITZER The Daily Wildcat

A UA professor created an app that will help decrease traffic congestion in different cities around the country. Yi-Chang Chiu, an associate professor of civil engineering at the UA and the creator of the app, Metropia, said it was created to help commuters recognize that they are part of a problem and that they can be part of a solution for future traffic congestion. According to the patent for the technology, the app provides incentives for the public to travel during certain time windows and offers different routes that will help decrease traffic congestion. “We try to offer incentives in a way that encourages those who have flexible schedules,” Chiu said. The app also includes a route determination module operative to create a certain route between an origin and destination, and the app will receive the location information from the mobile device it is installed on. Chiu said that if the app can convince about 10 percent of drivers to be willing to adjust their departure time and route, it would be able to reduce congestion significantly and create powerful improvement. Metropia has been building connections in many different cities, such as Austin, Texas; New York; and trials in Los Angeles, Chiu said. Metropia attracts cities and attention because the technology helps the cities alleviate congestion in their area, making for happier locals. Lewis Humphreys, the software and IT licensing manager of Tech Launch and worker for Metropia, said the whole purpose of the app and company is to address the problem of traffic congestion, reduce energy consumption and improve

the environment. Metropia works with businesses in the communities, the communities’ transportation departments and different industry partners to reach those goals. “They have a novel way of creating incentives for end users,” Humphreys said. “They incentivize the driver to change their behavior and leave and take different routes, leave at different times, based on current traffic data.” The app will also send users notifications about highways backed up due to accidents and allows access to different travel routes. The city of New York recently had an international competition for startup companies to submit information about their technologies, and Metropia was one of the finalists for the competition. Humphreys said the UA has supported the company and Chiu since the beginning.

“He initially had an idea to create the company and approached Tech Transfer,” Humphreys said. “Tech Transfer helped him to protect his property and helped him to meet people, to start his company and continue to be a partner in the support of the company.” Doug Hockstad, director of technology transfer at the UA, said that Tech Launch Arizona is very excited and proud of this new company. “It is our goal to support the efforts of our faculty, to create these impactful changes,” Hockstad said, “and this is a really exciting one and we are happy about this.”

and can be delayed while the school year is already moving forward and assignments and notes have already begun. “I use it mostly for academics, but just even in the beginning [and] getting access,” Meilech said, “They don’t start it before school, so you have to wait a couple weeks to get a note taker and testing accommodations, and by that time you’re three weeks in.” Meilech also said she fears the divide between the DRC, the faculty and the students will cause students to not be as successful as the DRC has hoped and strived for. “It has just taken a lot of me going to talk to the teachers and self-advocacy on my part, and I know that probably some students are just slipping through the cracks,” Meilech said. “I don’t have any real solutions … but as far as fair and equal access? Not exactly totally equal.” Other students have also expressed concerns, but believe it may not be the DRC that need solutions, but rather the faculty. Amanda Martinez, a pre-journalism junior, said she feels that many of her teachers do not work with her accommodation if the class runs a certain way. “The only thing I find difficult with having accommodations is talking to professors, especially in language classes,” Martinez said. “A lot of it is speaking and that’s one of the problems that I have, so it sometimes is a little hard to talk to professors and advocate for yourself.” Martinez said she thinks the DRC could improve its advocating for students. “I think that maybe the DRC staff could reach out to you more, but I do understand that there are so many students that need help,” Martinez said. “If you need help, you have to reach out to them.” According to its mission statement, the DRC wishes to provide equal access and resources around campus and in the classroom for all students that need special attention or help. The DRC offers resources, such as note-taking and extended time for exams and tests. Amanda Kraus, associate director of student development and accommodations at the DRC, said she is proud of the work the DRC does and feels that it is working toward an all-inclusive campus. Kraus said the UA has been committed to making the campus more accessible and that there is a strong link between the DRC and the rest of the UA. “This program is certainly one to be proud of,” Kraus said. The DRC, according to Kraus, works with over 2,200 students a year, with only 33 people on staff. “Personally, I am proud of the progressive way we think about disability,” Kraus said in an email statement. “We believe that the environment bears the responsibility for access and, as much as we can, we work systemically to remove barriers to access.”

Pope Francis made lame duck by conservatives

BY PAUL THOMSON The Daily Wildcat

F

or Roman Catholics — converted or cradle, practicing or not — the selection of a new pope sticks out as a flashbulb memory. It’s not so much election night, where people know they took the time to vote — or didn’t — and have a candidate they’re gunning for, but more like the finale of old seasons of “America’s Next Top Model”: Only one can win, but, outside of prayer, the matter is completely out of anyone’s hands. The judges’ decision is final. Maybe it’s a little more sober than “America’s Next Top Model,” but you get the point. And so it was during the spring of 2013 that Pope Francis was chosen to succeed the recently resigned Pope Benedict XVI. It was an odd time for the Roman Catholic Church ; not since Pope Celestine V in 1294 had the head of the Catholic Church resigned of his own volition. The selection of the new pope seemed direly important. Where was the Catholic Church going? After the death of the beloved Pope John Paul II and a string of disheartening, all-too-prevalent revelations about sexual abuse within the organization, it was clear the Catholic Church needed a change. In the last year, Francis has received a lot of press coverage. Last summer, he surprised the world, saying, “If someone is gay, who searches for the Lord and has goodwill, who am I to judge?” At the recent October synod, Francis urged his followers not to be afraid of change. And just a few weeks ago, Francis demoted outspoken conservative former archbishop of St. Louis Raymond Burke to cardinal of the Knights of Malta. Burke has been critical of the pope’s “reformist” ideologies. And yet, even with Francis’ growing emphasis on issues of poverty, charity and social welfare in deference to the continual discussions against contraception or homosexuality, there have been little-to-no actual reforms within the Catholic Church. No doctrinal change has occurred on issues of marriage rights, contraception or even divorce. While this pope certainly emphasizes different issues than his predecessors, his “progressivism” has seen little-to-no dogmatic progression. Has Francis provided the change the Catholic Church needed? Though I firmly believe that you cannot analyze or criticize the leader of a religious group the same way you can an elected official, the problems with Francis’s lack of progress is comparable to the struggles President Barack Obama has dealt with: The pope, like the president, cannot make uniform decisions for the entire population. He requires the collaboration and implementation of those changes by other members of the clergy . Just as Obama hit a standstill with a highly conservative Congress, so too have Francis’s more progressive ideas been derailed by what appears to be an increasingly traditional clergy . “[Francis’s] attempts to spur discussion among bishops about controversial issues such as communion for the divorced and making a place for gay people in the Roman Catholic Church seem to have failed,” said Peter Foley , director of the Institute for the Study of Religion and Culture and an associate professor of religious studies. “… Pope Francis in not particularly liberal, … but the cadre of bishops bequeathed to him by his predecessors is not permitting him to introduce even the discussion of intentional pastoral outreach into areas his predecessors have shunned.” It is with the understanding of this statement and with the news that just last week Francis made comments on the importance of a “traditional family” that liberal Catholics everywhere released a heavy sigh. The Catholic Church, so poised to change, may be too caught up in its own red tape and Francis, though certainly a step in the right direction, may not be as progressive as hoped. Certainly, the demotion of bishops like Burke sends a clear message, but the October synod of bishops to discuss “family matters” ended with no progressive doctrinal changes. And yet, for an institution that has been around for two millennia, it is unrealistic to expect doctrinal changes overnight. Francis has already declared that another meeting of bishops on issues of the family will take place next October, so he may be just gaining steam. Hope is still on the horizon; progressive Catholics don’t have to give up yet.

IMMIGRATION NATION Obama’s actions are not unprecedented or out of line with his presidential responsibilities

BY ELIZABETH HANNAH The Daily Wildcat

“O

ur nation is a nation of immigrants. More than any other country, our strength comes from our own immigrant heritage and our capacity to welcome those from other lands.” This is the same message heard over and over from those amnesty-loving liberals who just want to sing “Kumbayah” while holding hands with undocumented immigrants. Don’t they understand that the American melting pot is full? In fact, this quote comes from Rush Limbaugh’s homeboy former President Ronald Reagan. He made the remark in 1981, just before signing an executive order that allowed 7,000 anti-communist Polish immigrants to remain in the U.S. without full citizenship. Six years later, the famously conservative president used an executive order to defer the deportation of undocumented children whose parents had applied for legal status under the 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act. Curious. How could a Republican president stray so far from the GOP’s traditional path to citizenship — which is quite easy to navigate, provided that you are an English-speaking official from the Department of Homeland Security? Reagan is not the only conservative president in recent memory to direct immigration policy from the White House. In 1990, former President George

H. W. Bush ordered his administration to defer the deportation of 1.5 million undocumented spouses and children of individuals who had become legal under the very same 1986 law signed by Reagan. He issued the order in response to congressional failure to pass legislation that would have granted similar relief. Sounds familiar, huh? On Nov. 20, President Barack Obama issued an executive order that will allow undocumented immigrants to apply for temporary legal status if they have been in the U.S. for more than five years, have children who are citizens, pass a background check and agree to pay taxes. “President Obama did not create a new law,” said Andy Silverman, professor at James E. Rogers College of Law and member of the Board of Directors for the Florence Immigrant and Refugee Rights Project. “He did not change or alter existing immigration statutes, and he did not make new ones.” Like Reagan and Bush before him, Obama simply used his executive power to guide the implementation of statutes previously passed by Congress. Yet despite the clear historical precedent for so-called “executive amnesty,” critics are decrying Obama’s move as a tyrannical abuse of power and an illegal act deserving of impeachment. They claim his executive order is fundamentally different from those issued by Reagan and Bush. “People who are saying that misunderstand what Obama did,” Silverman said. “[His actions are] the same as saying, ‘We’re going to put our resources into deporting criminal noncitizens.’ … Obama is saying, ‘We’re not going to put resources into deporting people who have

been here for a certain period of time and meet certain qualifications.’” Silverman also noted the irony behind the lack of criticism around Obama’s using his power to deport criminal undocumented immigrants compared to his using it to extend immigrant residence. Haters have every right to disagree with Obama’s stance on immigration. They have the freedom to believe that American society will crumble under the weight of those foreigners who “steal jobs” from “fine American citizens.” But they cannot claim his executive order is illegal. “Obama’s order comes down to prosecutorial discretion, which has been conferred to him by Congress through its approval of Reagan’s action,” said Robert McWhirter, a Pima County Public Defender who has authored two books about immigration law. “If Congress doesn’t like what President Obama did, it should pass a law.” And if Congress lacks the creativity to write an original piece of legislation, perhaps it can borrow words from Reagan, who issued the following statement upon signing the Immigration Reform and Control Act in 1986: “The legalization provisions in this act will go far to improve the lives of a class of individuals who now must hide in the shadows, without access to many of the benefits of a free and open society. Very soon, many of these men and women will be able to step into the sunlight and, ultimately, if they choose, they may become Americans.” — Elizabeth Hannah is a biochemistry sophomore.

Obama’s executive order cannot be allowed to stand alone; laws — and compromise — must follow

BY CASEY HOYACK The Daily Wildcat

T

he U.S.’s immigration policies are broken. Nearly all Americans realize the status quo is untenable and unsustainable. The U.S. needs a system that secures its borders, keeping criminals and drugs out of the country, and welcomes individuals and families that seek to better their life. President Barack Obama’s executive order is a very small step in the right direction. Improvements in border security, procedures that deal with highskilled immigrants who are vital to the U.S. economy and a plan that keeps families from the danger of deportation are all laudable steps. The trouble with the executive order is this: Obama has decided to act alone without working with Congress to pass a bill that is comprehensible or comprehensive enough to fix the entire system. Many of his supporters claim that Obama ought to act alone since congressional Republicans are more interested in theatrics that pander to their political base than working with the

the U.S. In 1990, Bush allowed for relatives living with a legalized immigrant who was in the U.S. prior to the 1986 law to be protected from deportation through executive orders, similar to what Obama has done. In October of that year, Congress expanded this policy and made these protections permanent. One can hope that Obama and the GOP-led Congress can accomplish what that Republican president and Democratic Congress achieved: making substantive reforms permanent through congressional approval, not simply presidential fiat. Good policy is no excuse for the president not consulting the Congress. Procedures, not just outcomes, are important in this republic. Otherwise, we could have stuck with King George III. While Obama’s action is a step in the right direction, it is hardly “overhauling the nation’s immigration system” as many claim it to be. The only way to achieve true immigration reform is for both sides, in both branches of government, to come together and pass a bill. Together. We, a country of immigrants, would benefit immensely from it.

president. The election results of 2012 and 2014 ought to teach the two sides that the American people are interested in bipartisan solutions, not gridlock and drama. Obama and the GOP Congress would be wise to set aside the political theatrics and pass an immigration bill. Together. Second, many claim that the president has the authority to decide who gets deported. While the president does in fact have this authority, he would be wise not to exercise this power unilaterally. Instead, he should work towards a much stronger plan, with input and support from Congress, that can make these policies more permanent. It would be a shame to make a policy such as this, one that keeps families together, merely a short-term gimmick. Unilateral executive orders such as this are butterfly band-aids to a much deeper and more serious wound. Lastly, many point to executive orders by Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush that were just as broad as Obama’s executive order. However, both involved both congressional and legislative action. In 1986, Congress passed a law that paved the way for legal statutes for nearly 3 million people. It was only afterwards that the Reagan administration allowed for children of parents who were given legal status as a result of the 1986 law to stay in

POLICE BEAT BY ARIELLA NOTH

The Daily Wildcat

Not a bromance

A male student was diverted to the Dean of Students Office for underage drinking on Nov. 15. University of Arizona Police Department officers responded to the intersection of First Street and Cherry Avenue around midnight in reference to a report of a fight. At the intersection, they saw about 20 men walking east and talking loudly. There was no sign of an ongoing fight and the men denied being involved in an altercation. The officers drove west based on reports of men running away from the intersection. As they drove, they heard yelling from the Kappa Sigma fraternity house, and a male voice yelled, “I will drop kick them!” One officer exited the vehicle and stood outside the house. A man exited the south entrance, slamming the door. He immediately stopped when he saw the officer. The officer told the man to walk over to him, and he refused. A second man exited the same door. He dropped a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer and attempted to run back inside the house, but the door was closed. The officer told the second man to walk towards him, but he also refused. The officer approached both men and asked if they were involved in the altercation; they both denied involvement. The first man was not identified and was cleared. The second man verbally identified himself and said he was a non-UA affiliate. He refused to provide a local address. A records check found he was a UA student. The first man told the officer he was walking by the Gamma Phi Beta sorority house with the other man when a group of approximately 20 unknown men surrounded him and wanted to fight. He then went to Kappa Sigma to avoid conflict. He said he was not assaulted and did not wish to participate further with an investigation of an assault. He said there was tension between Kappa Sigma and another fraternity. The officer smelled a strong odor of alcohol on the second man and saw his eyes were red and watery, and he was swaying back and forth. He was issued a diversion.

A woman was charged with disorderly conduct on Nov. 15 at a football game. A UAPD officer working the football game was notified by a staff member that two women were fighting on the west side of the stadium. When the officer arrived on the scene, he saw one woman grab the other by the neck. The officer ran up to her and she immediately put her hands in the air. The officer began to escort the woman away. At that point, the woman being escorted tensed up, tried to turn toward the officer and started screaming obscenities. The officer could smell a very strong odor of intoxicants on her breath. She was also slurring her speech. As the officer escorted her to another area, she continued to scream obscenities. The other woman said they were friends and that the woman who was escorted away had been drinking alcohol since 7 a.m. She said she did not wish to prosecute the assault. The intoxicated woman denied medical attention and was ejected from the stadium. She was then transported to the Pima County Jail by Tucson Police Department transportation unit and was charged with disorderly conduct.

The Wildcats head to Hawaii for the EA Sports Maui Invitational BY JAMES KELLEY The Daily Wildcat

Arizona men’s basketball is spending the week in Hawaii, but it’s not a vacation. The No. 2 Wildcats (3-0) begin the championship round of the EA Sports Maui Invitational with Missouri (21) today at 3 p.m. MST on ESPN2. Regardless of the outcome, the UA will play three games in three days. “On a neutral court in this tournament, it is so much about us, making sure we’re ready to go and playing our style, playing hard and together, that’s way more important than even our opponent,” UA head coach Sean Miller said at a press conference last week. “But you’re playing against an SEC opponent and a program that certainly has a great tradition, so we know we’re going to be in for a big test.” Missouri opened the season by losing to UMKC 69-61 in the opening round of the Maui Invitational at home before beating Valparaiso and Oral Roberts. The Wildcats have won 30 consecutive regular-season nonconference games, the longest streak in the nation. The UA has won exempt tournaments like this the last two seasons, taking the 2012 Diamond

Miller is 15-4 in regular-season tournaments and 2313 overall at neutral sites. “Being able to play three games in three days on a neutral court or two games in three days and play against great competition and teams that are really good, that really tests you,” Miller said. “We’re always going to be in these events because I think it makes your team better, and I don’t

want anyone to ever be able to point to our program or team and say, ‘You didn’t challenge yourselves in your nonconference schedule, therefore this is what has happened to you in March.’” The 2012 Diamond Head Classic was also in Hawaii, and Arizona beat San Diego State 68-67 in the championship game.

F

acing then-No. 17/20 and now-No. 17/unranked Utah on the road, in the cold and in the rain was already a recipe for disaster for Arizona football. Then, starting quarterback Anu Solomon went down, but then-No. 15/15 and now-No. 15/12 Arizona (9-2, 6-2 Pac-12 Conference) once again found a way to not only win but blow out the Utes 42-10 behind a dominant rushing game and attacking defense. Solomon was having one of his best games of late, 8-for-17 passing for 158 yards, plus running for 22 yards on five carries and a touchdown. However, the Wildcats not only didn’t miss a beat, but they outscored the 17th-best in the country, according to the College Football Playoff rankings, 21-3 in the second half. Backup quarterback Jesse Scroggins came in and went 3-for-5 for 64 yards and ran for 16 yards on four carries in relief. He started off hot, but once he fumbled two plays in a row, losing the second — which led to the Utes’ second-half score — the UA changed focus. Running back Nick Wilson answered with a 75-yard touchdown run on the next drive, starting a 21-0 UA run to finish the game. The 75-yarder put Wilson over 1,000 yards for season, the first UA freshman to ever accomplish that feat. In fact, only 11 Wildcats have ever rushed for more than 1,000 yards in a season. Wilson added a 19-yard touchdown run to his touchdown tally. He finished with 218 yards on 20 carries for a 10.9 yards per rush average. Former Wildcat Ka’Deem Carey is the best runner in UA history, but a home run-hitter running back like Wilson makes the Wildcats very scary in their last few games of the season. As the rain poured down, the Wildcats fed Wilson the ball and ran out the clock rather than risk throwing the ball with a cold quarterback. Wilson was fourth in the Pac-12 in rushing before the game; had he not missed or been limited by injury for about a month, he would surely be at or near the top of the league in rushing. However, wunderkind Wilson wasn’t the Wildcats’ only storyline for the game. Once again, the

defense was dominant. The Wildcat defense had its best game of the year, scoring two touchdowns, intercepting the Utes in the end zone and setting up 21 points that were scored off touchdowns. One week after forcing the vital fumble to beat Washington and two weeks after scoring on a fumble return against Colorado, UA safety Tra’Mayne Bondurant once again showed his ball hawk skills. First, Bondurant forced a fumble late in the second quarter that defensive lineman Dan Pettinato ran 31 yards for a touchdown. Then, with 9:58 left, Bondurant provided the dagger when he returned an interception 39 yards for a touchdown. Bondurant started the season off the team when the Wildcats opened training camp. Good thing he came back, because he has an uncanny skill for making plays

when the ball comes his way. The defense also was key early on. After forcing the Utes to punt on each of their first four possessions, UA safety Jourdon Grandon intercepted the ball in the end zone when it looked like the Utes would score. The defense made Utah look like the desert team playing in the cold and rain. After the game, UA football head coach Rich Rodriguez told ESPN he didn’t know Solomon’s status for the ASU game. But after the performance of the defense, Wilson and even Scroggins for most of that first drive, Arizona may not need him. While ASU is ranked No. 13 in the CFP rankings, it needed overtime to beat the Utes 19-16 at home.

In what had been mostly a dream season, Arizona soccer’s 2014 run came to a crashing end Friday night as the Wildcats were blown out by the No. 1 seed Texas A&M Aggies in the Second Round of the NCAA Tournament. In a rematch of an early September tilt that ended in a 2-2 tie, the Wildcats (11-8-2) could do nothing to slow down the Aggies and fell by a final score of 7-2 on the road in College Station, Texas. After an early flurry from the Wildcats that failed to produce anything, the Aggies got the game’s first goal in the 15th minute when Annie Kunz was in the right place at the right time and scored off of a deflection on a free kick that was taken from midfield. A mistake from the Wildcat defense made it 2-0 Texas A&M in the 18th minute as Aggie Kelley Monogue found open space near the Arizona goal after a throwin from one of her teammates bounced over the heads of the Wildcat defenders and gave senior goalkeeper Gabby Kaufman no chance at the save. Moments later, it was 3-0 as Monogue again got open and this time finished with the head after receiving a well-placed cross from a teammate. With Arizona’s offense producing very little pressure on the Aggies, Texas A&M continued to push forward and made the score 4-0 in the 32nd minute after Allie Bailey’s shot from just inside the 18-yard box deflected off Wildcat defender Sheaffer Skadsen and past a diving Kaufman. To close the first half, Bailey scored the Aggie’s fifth goal with a perfectly struck ball into the top corner of the net with just a little over two minutes remaining. According to a UA press release, Wildcat head coach Tony Amato knew the team was in trouble after the hot start from the Aggies. “I think they just started the game with the pedal to the floor,” Amato said. “They scored and the crowd got into it, and they just started flying. If soccer had timeouts, I would’ve called one there to let our girls regroup. They just grabbed the momentum at that point and it was just too hard to overcome.” Even with a comfortable five-goal lead at halftime, Texas A&M wasn’t finished dismantling Arizona as

UA volleyball splits Washington road trip BY MATT WALL

The Daily Wildcat

Arizona volleyball finished with a victory and a loss in Washington over the weekend, defeating Washington State in five sets on Saturday after losing to No. 5 Washington on Friday in straight sets. Against Washington, Arizona struggled defensively, especially with the loss of one of its top players. The Wildcats faced a scary moment Friday night when sophomore setter Penina Snuka injured her knee in the first set. Junior transfer Whitney Hunt stepped up in Snuka’s absence but just didn’t add enough, struggling to replace Snuka, who averages four digs per set. Hunt, who played for Weber State before transferring to Arizona, had 31 assists for the Wildcats. Snuka, who had previously been described as Arizona’s point guard by UA head coach Dave Rubio, clearly was missed for the rest of the match. Outside hitter Madi Kingdon led the Wildcats with 17 kills and added 12 digs for her fifthconsecutive double-double. In the end, Arizona struggled to rally any momentum against a tough Washington opponent that had previously come off two straight defeats. The Huskies ended up defeating the Wildcats (20-25, 17-25, 19-25) and outblocking Arizona 7-2. Although they were able to hold on during the first set, Arizona was simply outplayed by a Washington team that wanted to avenge its

previous losses. Against Washington State, Arizona held on for five sets, outlasting the Cougars (25-22, 21-25, 2523, 29-31, 15-8). The Wildcats gathered 109 digs, which is the fourth time this season that the UA has had 100-plus digs, and the seventh most in school history. Kindon’s 34 digs were the fourth most in UA history, and she finished the weekend with her 107th double-digit kill match in her time at Arizona, which set a new record. Adding to the offensive performance were sophomore outside hitter Ashley Harris and senior outside hitter Taylor Arizobal. Harris tied her career high with 19 kills, while Arizobal added a season-high 18 kills. Snuka returned for the Wildcats against the Cougars, entering in the second set on Saturday, dishing out 34 assists and adding 17 digs. Washington State was not predicted to give Arizona much competition, especially because it sits in last place in the Pac-12 Conference and has just one victory over a Pac-12 opponent. The Cougars now have lost eight straight games. The UA finished the weekend at (22-8, 12-7 Pac-12) and has just two more games before it concludes its regular season. Arizona will host USC for senior day on Wednesday and will then travel to Arizona State on Friday.

SEC Offensive Player of the Year Shea Groom blasted a ball past Kaufman at the 47th minute mark. The Wildcats finally got on the board in the 51st minute when senior forward Ali Doller headed in a flip throw-in from Jaden DeGracie. The goal was Doller’s eighth of the season, tied for sixth best in Arizona soccer history. After another goal from the Aggies off of a free kick, Arizona junior defender Hayley Estopare scored her second goal of the season, and the game’s last, when she knocked in a loose ball that Texas A&M failed to clear out.

Wednesday at 8 p.m. On the other side of the bracket is the tournament host, Division II Chaminade (2-0), Pittsburgh (2-1), BYU (3-0) and No. 16 San Diego State. Former Wildcat forward Angelo Chol plays for SDSU. He is averaging 7.3 points per game and 4.7 rebounds a game. Miller played point guard at Pitt from 1987-1988 to 1991-1992. “I’m just going to say what I should say: that it starts and stops with Missouri,” Miller said. “Everyone in the tournament has a purpose, and we’re all going there to learn a lot about our team, and only one of us will leave with two wins.” — Follow James Kelley @jameskelley520

Following the game, Amato could do nothing but congratulate the Aggies for their dominating performance. “We ran into a really good team tonight,” Amato said. “They were firing on all cylinders and it felt like everything they shot in the first half went in. There are a lot of good players on that A&M team, and I expect them to make a good run in this tournament. I thought we started well. We had a couple chances, didn’t finish them, and once they got their goal they came after us. It was a long game.”

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP. answers to your ques�ons about sex and rela�onships Children are exposed to porn for the first time, on average, at 11.5 years of age.

Q

Does porn decrease sexual enjoyment with my partner?

A. It really depends on several factors and we have some questions for you to consider: Do you view porn by yourself or with your partner? If you and your partner both enjoy watching porn together, it may enhance your relationship. If you always watch alone and masturbate while viewing actors on a screen, it may make a “real-life” encounter seem less enjoyable (at best) or downright disappointing (at worst). Your partner may seem inadequate when compared to the performers in carefully-scripted and rehearsed scenes. Sometimes porn sets unrealistic expectations (for performance, appearance, interactions, etc.) that are impossible for regular humans to achieve. How frequently do you view porn? If you aren’t as interested in sex with your partner because you spend hours watching porn, it may harm your relationship. Consider spending more time with your partner,

and less time watching porn. Some people view porn without any negative effects; others become compulsive porn consumers who have difficulty enjoying sex with their partners. What type of images do you watch? There are hundreds of porn genres (fetishes, racial categories, sexual orientations, sex acts, etc.). Porn is often sensational, demeaning, and frequently depicts power imbalances between partners. Is the porn you watch helping, or harming, your relationship with your partner? How can you increase your sexual enjoyment? Porn can be instructive and may enhance sex with a partner. Search for sex-positive flicks that depict erotic or “passionate” love. Choose film producers who portray respect, affection, consent, and equality. Again, if you feel that your porn use is negatively affecting your relationships, it may be time to take a look inside yourself and make some adjustments.

It’s normal to feel down sometimes. But when feelings of depression, hopelessness, or anxiety persist, it may be more than just sadness. If you want to talk, there are people and resources that can help.

Origins of Hollywood’s blacklist BY KEVIN C. REAGAN The Daily Wildcat

Bessie, Biberman, Cole, Dmytryk, Lardner, Lawson, Maltz, Ornitz, Scott and Trumbo: Their names may not be recognizable, but 67 years ago today, they became the first of a long list of actors, writers and directors who would be put on Hollywood’s blacklist. On Nov. 24, 1947, these 10 Hollywood elites were cited for contempt after refusing to answer questions about their involvement with the Communist party from the House of Un-American Activities Committee. Nicknamed the “Hollywood 10,” all of them were found guilty in a federal court and were sentenced to up to a year in prison with a fine of $1,000. “As soon as we got the subpoenas, we knew it was serious,” said Albert Maltz, a screenwriter who would be blacklisted from working in Hollywood until 1964. “No such thing had happened before.” Their imprisonment garnered national attention, and shortly after the hearings, nearly 50 Hollywood executives secretly convened at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City to strategize on how to handle these Communist infiltrations. They agree to suspend the Hollywood 10 from their contracts without pay and to deny any further employment at their studios. After serving their prison sentence, some of the Hollywood 10 were able to keep working under alternative names. Dalton Trumbo won an Academy Award under the name Robbie Rich for penning the screenplay to the 1956 film “The Brave One.” Others, such as Adrian Scott and Samuel Ornitz, never worked in Hollywood again, while Lester Cole and Edward Dmytryk moved to England to keep working. Dmytryk would reappear before HUAC again in 1951 after he served a four and half-month prison sentence in West Virginia. Dmytryk admitted before the committee to being a former Communist and agreed to identify other Hollywood players who were affiliated with the party.

INDIEWIRE.COM

MEMBERS OF THE Hollywood 10 and their families in 1950 protested the impending incarceration of the 10. The Hollywood 10 were 10 members of the entertainment industry who were the first to be held in contempt by Congress for refusing to answer questions about their Communist affiliations to the House Un-American Activities Committee.

“I was being forced to sacrifice my family and my career in defense of the Communist Party,” Dmytryk said in his 1978 autobiography, “from which I had long been separated.” There were some in Hollywood who’d never forgive Dmytryk for naming names to the committee. When invited to speak at a Barcelona Film Festival symposium in 1988, other Hollywood officials reportedly refused to participate in the symposium with Dmytryk. Dmytryk passed away in 1999, and Ring Lardner Jr., the last surviving member of the Hollywood 10, died the following year. The Red Scare in Hollywood began shortly after World War II, when the leftist Communist movement gained greater momentum in the film industry. Remnants of the Great Depression disenfranchised many Americans

from democratic ideals, and so many turned to Communism, according to historian Geoffrey Stone. In 1946, J. Edgar Hoover, the director of the FBI, instilled public fear by addressing Communism as a “growing menace”. Former President Harry Truman responded with an executive order to allow the FBI to investigate the loyalty of over four million federal employees. When J. Parnell Thomas became chairman of the HUAC in 1947, he began snooping into Hollywood after receiving tips of Communist behavior from industry mavericks such as Jack Warner. In October 1947, Thomas began collecting the testimony of socalled “friendly” witnesses such as Walt Disney, Gary Cooper and Ronald Reagan, who confirmed a Communist presence existing in Hollywood.

12 hours for 12 books of Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost’

BRITTAN BATES/THE DAILY WILDCAT

READERS TAKE turns reading all 12 books of “Paradise Lost” at the annual Milton Marathon reading in the Main Library on Friday. Professor John Ulreich organizes and facilitates the event each year.

BY IVANA GOLDTOOTH The Daily Wildcat

“… Whose fault? Whose but his own? Ingrate!” were lines that could be heard echoing from the reading room on the west side of the Main Library’s third floor Friday afternoon. Friday was the 17th Annual Milton Marathon run by John Ulreich, an English professor whose classes revolve around studying the King James Bible and John Milton. The marathon went from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., with readings of all 12 books of “Paradise Lost,” the epic poem written by Milton centuries before. The diction of the epic is very different from works of other writers of the time, such as William Shakespeare’s plays, which can raise questions about what draws people in to study or appreciate it. The appreciation of the work was evident in the engaged expressions on some of the participants’ faces. “There is something in Milton for everyone,” Ulreich said.

Ulreich said the annual reading provides an opportunity to become exposed to different perspectives and interpretations students and audience members may have of Milton’s poem. The long passages are not easy to comprehend and often require some thinking to understand the meaning behind an idea. The crowd of people in the reading room included students who took Ulreich’s class on Milton’s works this past spring. “I think Milton is one of the underappreciated great poets of the English language,” said Jorge Rodriguez, a UA English alumnus, who returned to campus for the event. “I like how I learn something new [every time] I read his books or his plays — ‘Paradise Lost,’ specifically.” Rodriguez added that Ulreich made him care about Milton’s work and inspired him to study it. “[Milton] sounded interesting,” said Emma Harken, an English senior. “I’ve taken pretty much all the Shakespeare

that an English major can take at this university, so it wasn’t too much of a stretch to consider Milton, but at the same time they are very, very different.” Harken added that Milton’s language is more academic and is quoted, found and referenced everywhere, which has helped in other classes she is taking now. “Regarding ‘Paradise Lost,’ Milton brings up these larger than life questions,” said Joshua Morrison, a senior studying English literature and creative writing. Morrison said reading Milton’s work is about thinking what’s actually being asked, which can lead to questions about what life is, what’s important to life and what life means. Morrison said “Paradise Lost” makes an attempt to answer these questions, which is why it captures people’s attention.

The committee then called for the testimony of 19 “unfriendly” witnesses who were under suspicion for Communist affiliation. Ten of these witnesses outright refused to answer personal questions about their political beliefs, which resulted in them being cited for contempt under Congress. “This committee has encouraged an assortment of well-rehearsed witnesses to testify that I and others are subversive and un-American,” Maltz said during his testimony for HUAC. According to José Anderson, a professor at the University of Baltimore’s School of Law, citing the Hollywood 10 for contempt introduced a paradox regarding the First and Fifth Amendments of the Constitution: the HUAC was expecting the witnesses to offer self-incriminating evidence against themselves.

Though the appeals issued by the Hollywood 10 were denied by the Supreme Court, Anderson argues this case later influenced theories of constitutional law during the Warren Court era of the mid-1950s. “The Hollywood 10 … created the national standard for freedom of political association that exists today,” Anderson wrote in 2009. Though more than 200 people would be blacklisted in Hollywood by the mid-1950s, it is the Hollywood 10 who are remembered as the first victims of this notorious witchhunt. HUAC remained in existence until being disbanded in 1975.

Author gives to UNICEF BY CHASTITY EVA LASKEY

The Daily Wildcat

Local Tucson writer Thomax Green recently decided to donate 100 percent of his book proceeds to UNICEF. Green said he originally decided to donate only 50 percent of his proceeds, but because of the Ebola outbreak in Africa, he decided to donate all the proceeds. “The book is basically designed to help you live a more happy, fulfilled life,” Green said regarding his book, “The Shu: The Gnostic Tao Te Ching.” Green said after personally experiencing some recent spells of illness, it made him realize how important it is it to have organizations like UNICEF taking care of the sick. “UNICEF are the only people in Africa that are taking care of all the orphans who have lost their families to Ebola,” Green said regarding why he chose to donate to UNICEF. “Not even the indigenous people want to be associated with these children because they’re afraid of catching the disease themselves.” The official UNICEF website reports, ”At least 3,700 children in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone have lost one or both parents to Ebola since the start of the outbreak in West Africa, according to preliminary UNICEF estimates, and many are being rejected by their surviving relatives for fear of infection.” Green explained that since he was little, he has wanted to write this book. One day at a public pool, an old man sat next to Green and started to explain Taoism to him. Green said he shocked the man when he in turn spoke about Taoism back. The old man then proceeded to call Green a butterfly, which in Taoism means someone who does great things. Green said the man gave him a copy of the “Tao Te Ching,” which he said is related to the part of his book where he rewrites the ancient Chinese manuscript. Green said due to lack of proper exposure by an individual in charge of promotion, his book did not have the launch he thought it would. He said he was disappointed when he first wrote a donation check of only $66, as he hoped it would be much more. UNICEF was not

AMAZON

at all disappointed, however; a representative even sent Green a letter not only thanking Green but also encouraging him not to be discouraged because his donation would help many people. “I actually got a little teary-eyed when I received the letter,” Green said. “It was affirmation that I was doing the right thing, even if it was just a small donation in comparison to what I was hoping. It made me feel better.” In his book, Green writes about the nature of fear as an illusion that isn’t based on the present. “That’s what really spoke to Linda Grady, the representative from UNICEF, because she was having something going on in her life, and she was scared about it and that passage made her feel better,” Green said. Green said he has sent out his manuscript to New York publishers in hopes of his book being printed in different languages for different countries and a larger audience overall. He said he looks hopefully toward the future, and would like to continue to send donation checks to UNICEF. Green’s book is available on Amazon, as well as Mostly Books on Speedway Boulevard and Wilmot Road and Antigone Books on Fourth Avenue.
