Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed a bill that would have set different regulations for ride-sharing networks and regular taxi services. House Bill 2262 would have allowed the state of Arizona to regulate ride-sharing networks, such as Uber and Lyft, though without the same safety standards and insurance requirements as taxi services. The bill was passed by both houses of the state legislature and sent to the governor’s desk on Thursday, where she vetoed it. In her veto letter, Brewer said the bill would allow the networks to operate in Arizona without the safeguards necessary for drivers, consumers and the public. “Consumer safety must not be sacrificed for the sake of innovation,” Brewer said. Brewer cited gaps in insurance coverage and a lack of required drug testing for drivers as reasons she vetoed the bill. With the veto, Uber and Lyft will still be able to provide services in Arizona, though they will continue to operate without any regulation by the state. Uber and Lyft representatives have both expressed disappointment regarding Brewer’s decision. In a statement, Uber said ride-sharing as we know it is dead in Arizona. “With the veto of H.B. 2262, Gov.

Fare increases still uncertain BY LAUREN NIDAY

The Daily Wildcat

It is unclear right now whether the city of Tucson will approve proposed Sun Tran fare increases for the 2015 fiscal year. In a memo regarding the upcoming budget, the city did not approve a 25-cent increase in bus fares, according to an article released by the Arizona Daily Star on April 21. Kandi Young, communications and marketing director at Sun Tran, said that Sun Tran is continuing its compilation of user opinions and feedback, and will present its findings to Tucson Mayor Jonathan Rothschild and the city council in about a month. On April 2, Sun Tran hosted an information session in the Student Union Memorial Center Kiva Room to gather student and

faculty input on the proposed fare increase and route changes. Students and faculty had the ability to ask representatives of Sun Tran about the changes, and were encouraged to fill out a survey providing input that is currently being compiled and will eventually be presented to Rothschild and the city council prior to their decision regarding the proposed changes. Bill Davidson, manager of public information and marketing at UA Parking and Transportation Services, urged students and faculty to participate in the information session and give their feedback because around 3,000 Sun Tran passes have been purchased from the PTS office. Following a Comprehensive Operational Analysis that was completed in February, Sun Tran was able to analyze routes and

fares and conduct on-board rider surveys, according to Young. From this information, three different options were developed regarding how Sun Tran could gradually increase fares over the next 10 years. Young said the three proposed bus fare increase options include a plan for small incremental increases through 2025.

She had previously stated that she believes the mayor and council will choose a mixture of the three options, heavily based on user feedback. “We are still moving forward,” Young said. — Follow Lauren Niday @lauren_niday

Brewer has taken an action that will slash quality jobs, restrict access to a best-inclass transportation options and set Arizona back in the innovation economy,” the statement read. Lyft issued a statement saying that it had worked with state legislators to craft a regulatory framework that would, in fact, have set high safety standards for ridesharing networks. “Today’s disappointing decision goes against Arizona’s commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship,” the statement read, “but we will continue to stand strong as a community and do everything possible to ensure a path forward that allows ridesharing to thrive in Arizona.” In the statement, Lyft also said the safety measures it employs surpass those required by the state for other transportation services. Lyft said it already has “rigorous requirements” in place to ensure safety including background checks, vehicle inspections and commercial insurance policies. Steve Thompson, general manager of Uber Arizona, said earlier this month that safety is extremely important to Uber. Drivers must be 21 years old, have a four-door car registered in their name and go through background checks, Thompson said. “We want to make sure we have the top partners to ensure safety for everyone,” Thompson said. Uber had launched a social media campaign called Keeping AZ Moving Forward in the run up to the vote on H.B. 2262, urging Arizonans to express their support for the bill to their state legislators.

The UA chapter of ASCP was founded in October 2013 and focuses on geriatrics and long-term care.

Lyft vehicles are easy to notice due to the pink mustaches attached to their bumpers. Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed a bill Thursday that would have implemented regulations for ride-sharing networks such as Lyft and Uber.

Ride-sharing networks like Uber and Lyft have been popular among UA students since the two ridesharing networks launched their services in Tucson this academic year. Uber started operations in Tucson in October, and Lyft, whose cars are identifiable by their pink mustaches, began operating in Tucson earlier this month. Representatives of taxi services in Arizona praised Brewer’s decision to veto the bill. Mike Pinckard, president of Total Transit, the parent company of

UITS has also begun installing emergency screens in large lecture classrooms on campus that allow UAPD to broadcast messages immediately, Brummund said. The term “swatting” would be an accurate description for this situation, according to Barrera. He described “swatting” as a national trend of committing or reporting an offense while pretending to be someone else, which triggers a

Discount Cab, said the veto protected consumers and Arizona businesses from a “sweetheart deal” for ride-sharing networks that would have only benefitted a wealthy few. “H.B. 2262, which would have created special insurance and drug-testing loopholes for billion-dollar rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft, was bad law — law that put at risk every Arizona driver and passenger,” Pinckard said.

Bianca Taylor, a psychology junior, said she found out about the email threat when one of her friends posted an article about it online. She said her first reaction when she read it was slight panic, but that she was

Henes also said he thought students are less safe when they use services like Uber and Lyft because of those services aren’t held to the same safety standards as taxi services.

glad UAPD did not send out an alert to students about the email. “It’s not really necessary because you don’t want to cause a panic if there’s not a real threat,” Taylor said. Taylor added she had experienced something like this last year, when students received an alert about a man with a gun in the Administration building. She said she knew that was a more serious threat because UAPD sent out an alert to students, while in this case most students were not affected.

Patient profs win over hard knocks BY JESUS LUNA TARAZON The Daily Wildcat

T

he day after one of my exams, it became apparent that about 40 percent of the class was missing from the seats. Naturally, this was brought up by the professor. Cue the inevitable random student shouting “Can the people who showed up today get extra credit since so many people bailed?” This caused the professor to go off on a tangent; he’s not one of those teachers who takes it easy on his students. “You think any of your future bosses are gonna give you a raise just because you showed up on time?” he asked. This went on for quite a while, with him diverging to talk about “effort-based grading,” where the teacher gives students full credit for every assignment turned in, regardless of how well they did. I was a bit frustrated that he went on about his disapproval of this mentality for so much of the lecture, especially because of the polarizing way in which he went about it. This professor, who I won’t name, takes a very strict approach to the way he teaches the class. There are three exams, no homework assignments, and no lecture notes offered online. If you miss a day, you have to hope someone is willing to let you copy their notes. If you don’t do well enough on the exams, then get ready to take the class again next semester. While the content of the course isn’t mind-numbingly difficult, this approach would be considered pretty intense for other materials where it’s much easier to fall behind. His attitude comes from the idea that college is supposed to prepare you for the real world, a world where messing up means you have to try again. It’s definitely an understandable perspective on education. I’m sure students who are pampered by teachers are less able to cope with the “real world” once they graduate. Offering all students generous extensions of deadlines, or excessively handing out extra credit could potentially spoil them. While I definitely agree students shouldn’t be given too much leeway, I also feel many people who advocate for this approach are a little overzealous about it. The subject needs to be handled with more finesse. Students shouldn’t be encouraged to do the bare minimum, but there’s nothing wrong with a professor tossing out a couple of extra points on a quiz, or giving an extra day to turn in an assignment at the cost of a penalty. I think the majority of college students are already aware that life isn’t always fair. In fact, I’m certain the concept of “shit happens” isn’t completely alien to anyone who’s already been living on this planet for over 18 years. It’s actually a bit insulting when, as a grown adult, someone gives you the “you don’t always get what you want” speech you’ve heard a billion times before. The fact of the matter is, regardless of how well we are taught by our professors, we’re going to make plenty of mistakes when we go down our respective career paths. This is inevitable, but it’s also very unlikely that a new employee will be harshly punished for messing up. You’re probably going to meet people who are understanding and want to help you improve yourself. The approach that some professors take to education leads me to believe they want to condition students for a life of unrelenting stress and hardship. Even if some careers are really like that, shouldn’t students be able to learn how to cope with it, rather than getting beaten down by the “sink-or-swim” method? A study conducted at Harvard University in 2009 led by David G. Rand, a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard’s Program for Evolutionary Dynamics, revealed that a reward-based approach resulted in better cooperation and desired behavior than a punishment-based system. I get that students need to graduate prepared, but when it comes to actually teaching them concepts and testing their understanding, I don’t think punching them in the gut for making a mistake is the best method. Failing a student on an assignment for narrowly missing a deadline, or docking ridiculous amounts of points for things like formatting errors doesn’t really promote a better work ethic. Excessive positive reinforcement may not make concepts any clearer, but neither does too much negative reinforcement. Negative reinforcement still serves to inform those involved about the consequences of their shortcomings. However, if the reinforcement is too harsh, the receiving party is more likely to struggle or lose motivation. In the end, it seems that a professor can reach students more effectively by being understanding and offering constructive criticism, rather than just throwing the textbook at them. — Jesus Luna Tarazon is a senior studying English.

‘Trends men hate’ part of patriarchial problem BY MAURA HIGGS

I

’ve been told men like confidence. I’ve been told men don’t notice what you do with your hair or if you change your lipstick color. But in the past few years, there have been numerous articles telling me what fashion trends men hate. Last year The Huffington Post published a list of 23 trends that guys apparently hate, including everything from peplum tops, which it compares to maternity wear, to bright lipstick that might leave a mark. This is just one of many similar lists across many sites. So should I ignore these articles because, in my experience, men don’t even see changes in my appearance? Or should I just not care what men think because I’m better off feeling confident than dressing for a man? These articles are creating an unrealistic double standard for all women, and their authors assume that we only want to try to meet men’s standards. We already live in a patriarchal society. Essentially men already run everything, providing the majority of the leadership in most parts of life. We don’t need them in our closets, too. To assume that articles like this do

Pulse of the Pac Columnists from around the Pac-12 write about pets, kegs and non-midterm midterms From “You’d think the word ‘midterm’ would be pretty selfexplanatory” by Alec Grevstad

I’m just a speech communications major, but I feel the prefix in that word is “mid.” This is short for middle. In a perfect world, I would take only one midterm per class, and it would happen halfway through week five. But this isn’t a perfect world. Whether you are a geologist, an art major or aren’t even enrolled in school, but love the columns anyway, we can agree one thing: A midterm should be given in the middle of term, not sooner and not more than once. If it’s going to happen more than once, or before or after the middle of the term, there’s no need to recreate the wheel. There’s already more than one word for those: tests, exams, assessments, questionnaires and quizzes. The Daily Barometer Oregon State University

From “Pets in college: no animal should be left behind” by Marissa Mararac

From “First, they came for our kegs” by Editorial Board

Last week, The Arizona Republic published a story detailing the Student Safety Task Force and its consideration of banning kegs at tailgates during home football games, increasing police presence and keeping fans from re-entering the stadium. This group is in charge of “examining and enhancing student safety on campus, as well as in the nearby communities where students reside,” according to the Arizona Board of Regents. The ban on kegs, specifically, is a complete and utter rejection of a culture that we came to expect while coming to college. It’s a feature of not only our culture as Americans but as college students. Taking away kegs isn’t going to solve the problems brought on by drinking; it’s only going to divorce us from the culture we’ve come to expect. The State Press Arizona State University

In college, students sometimes feel the need to get a pet, which is completely reasonable because pets can make the best companions. Some colleges even use dogs as stress relievers for students, according to an article from USA Today. The downside to owning a pet in college is that when a student graduates or goes home for the summer, they are often unable to take their companion with them. The excuses for abandoning their animal can range anywhere from “I’m moving to another state” to “My parents didn’t know I had a pet.” College students should think long and hard about the animal’s life before they go through with a pet purchase or adoption. No pet should be left behind. The Daily Evergreen Washington State University

POLICE BEAT BY MARISSA MEZZATESTA The Daily Wildcat

Girl down

A UA student was referred to the Dean of Students Office and medically assessed for a high level of intoxication on April 20 in Coronado Residence Hall. A University of Arizona Police Department officer responded to the lobby of Coronado at 12:45 a.m. in reference to an intoxicated woman. The officer spoke with a resident assistant who said an unknown man assisted the woman into the lobby and left her leaning against the front desk. The woman could not keep herself upright and slumped to the floor, prompting the RA to contact UAPD and Tucson Fire Department medical personnel. The woman, later identified as a student, was medically assessed and transported to the University of Arizona Medical Center. The student had consumed about 10 to 12 shots of alcohol that night, at an off-campus location. The student was taken to UAPD and a Dean of Student Office referral form was completed.

Laugh attack

A non-UA affiliated man was arrested on April 19 for disorderly conduct and having outstanding warrants. Two UAPD officers were dispatched to the ScienceEngineering Library at 4:31 p.m. in reference to a disruptive person. A library staff member said a man in a brown shirt had come into the library and was laughing loudly. The staff member asked him if he needed any help and the man said he wanted a free soda because he had seen in the movies that universities give out free soda. The man then went outside and sat on a bench and continued laughing loudly. The staff member told him she could hear him from inside the library, and that she did not feel comfortable leaving the library with him outside of it. The officers found that the man had 11 outstanding warrants from Tucson Police Department, and he was arrested.

M

a dark theater, with no breaks or interruptions, the movie becomes a disconcerting, if not oppressive, experience. It made me tense and uneasy. The score’s strings alternate between two main themes to set the haunting scenes. One is a storm of pulse-pounding, scratching strings that drive forward with percussive determination. The other sounds are comparable to the “Scene D’Amour” theme from Alfred Hitchcock’s “Vertigo.” It is distorted, high-pitched, ethereal and paranoid, all in one big mass. It is extremely safe to say that you’ve never seen Johansson in a role like this one. She’s certainly been in more serious roles before, like in “Vicky Cristina Barcelona,” but nothing this outlandish. She bares all, literally, appearing for the first time fully nude on film. Her performance begins appropriately distant and restrained, yet, as the narrative progresses, becomes more emotional and vulnerable. “Under the Skin” is a difficult movie, dealing with themes of sex and human nature in very complex visual and narrative styles. However, if you are able to navigate what at times seems impenetrable, the film offers up a lot. Don’t worry, it might take a second viewing. There are things I still don’t understand, and I’m certainly going to see it again.

Who. What. Wear. Ciana Gastelum

marketing sophomore What are you wearing today? I am wearing a flowy white cotton tank with a strappy bra underneath, hig-waisted daisy shorts and black T-strap sandals. What do you like about floral print? I only buy floral print because it makes me feel more feminine and it’s happy. I don’t like to wear solid or dark colors. I just feel a little more dressed up when I’m wearing a print. Who or what inspires your style? Lately I have been inspired by the styles worn at Coachella and Stagecoach because it’s so indie and hippie. It’s just free and pretty and floral. What is another thing you like to wear in the springtime? I personally have been into detailed shorts, like the ones I’m wearing today.

Jennifer Piatt

Leonardo Sanchez

junior studying Spanish, Portuguese and political science

philosophy, politics, economics and law freshman What are you wearing today? I am wearing my ambassador polo, my SMORES [Sophomore Honorary Counsel] letterman, grey shorts and Vans.

What are you wearing today? I am wearing a floral dress from American Eagle.

Do you always wear UA clothing? For the most part yes, because I work at the [UofA] Bookstore and that’s basically our uniform. I always rep my clubs and stuff. What do you like to wear now that it’s warmer out? For sure shorts, and every now and then tanks. Anything that keeps me cool. Who or what inspires your style? I don’t think anyone inspires it. I feel like I don’t have a style because it’s so here and there. What do you wear on a first date? Depends on where we’re going to go. If it were a classy dinner then I would dress up, a nice ironed button-up shirt and some hipster shoes.

Do you wear floral print often? I do in the spring. Who or what inspires your style? My mood. I’ll dress how I feel that day. In your opinion, what is one thing every girl should have in their closet? A little black dress. What else do you like to wear in the springtime? I like to wear lots of cardigans. I like [layers], bright colors and shorts. — Compiled by Alicia Vega

Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It helps people with ADHD focus and maintain attention to work and study more effectively. Adderall, Vyvanse, Ritalin (methylphenidate), and all other prescribed ADHD medications are legally classified as Schedule II drugs because, although they have been approved for medical use, they have a high potential for abuse and misuse. Current research on interaction effects of alcohol and these stimulants are limited but clear on one point: when mixing alcohol with commonly prescribed doses of methylphenidate, our body naturally converts this drug combination into a new substance (i.e., a psychoactive metabolite) called ethylphenidate. While the effects of low doses of ethylphenidate are currently unknown, high doses of alcohol and ethylphenidate are reported to be toxic. Further, this drug combination reduces one’s perception of drunkenness while increasing stimulant euphoria. This distortion in thinking and emotion makes users more prone to make unsafe decisions while under the influence. Although Adderall and other Schedule II stimulants are considered safe for medical use, no drugs are entirely free of side effects. Talk with your doctor if you are taking a prescribed ADHD medication and are considering using alcohol. Side effects of improper use of stimulants such as Adderall can include irritability, restlessness, increased heart rate, headache, aggression, and insomnia. The Food and Drug Administration gave all ADHD stimulant medications a “black box” warning (their strongest warning) because of their potential for abuse and dependence. Mixing these stimulants with alcohol can not only make you sick but be risky combined.

No. 9 Arizona softball has dominated at the plate, but in the circle, the Wildcats’ pitching staff has struggled to limit walks BY ROBERTO PAYNE The Daily Wildcat

A high-powered offense has led the No. 9 Arizona softball team to 39 wins and an undefeated record at home. However, there are serious concerns over whether the pitching staff is able take the team deep into postseason play. “Pitching and defense is what wins championships,” junior utility player Hallie Wilson said. “As long as we can keep runners off base, no more free passes … that needs to be a mentality we take on to the road.” As Wilson implied, the Arizona pitching staff has been struggling mightily, and one of its major issues has been command. Over the past five games, the pitching staff walked the same number of batters (34) as it retired by strikeout (34). Those strikeout numbers would be much lower had senior Estela Piñon not had 11 strikeouts as a relief pitcher over the same stretch.

Piñon has been by far the most why Candrea pulled Saturday’s consistent pitcher on the team, and starting pitcher Shelby Babcock has the full confidence of Arizona after 2.1 innings and Sunday’s starting pitcher Nancy Bowling after head coach Mike Candrea. “Estela [Piñon] is just really .2 innings. “Outside of [Piñon] right now, competing her butt off right now,” we’ve got to keep Candrea said. plugging away with “She’s matured a Walks can the process, and the lot, she doesn’t hit kill us, so it’s next couple weeks the panic button will be a challenge,” and she can throw something Candrea said. “It some strikes when we’re working may be a breakout she needs to.

performances this season, but have struggled as of late. Of the two, it’s most important to get Fowler to return to her previous form. The big issue with Fowler has been command and making sure she limits her walks. The righthanded pitcher has walked 75 batters in only 62.1 innings but allowed only 27 hits over that same stretch, which brings up the question: How good could Fowler be if she limited her walks? “We’re working on it, and it gets very frustrating,” Piñon said. “Walks can kill us, so it’s something that we’re working on as a staff right now.” Getting those walks down from Fowler could give Candrea the second pitcher he needs and put the Wildcats in a better place come postseason play.

run on 12 hits and stranded 13 base runners. Lopez said he hopes Hoard will provide additional depth and power to the Wildcats’ lineup to jumpstart an offensive revival. “[Situational hitting] was better [on Sunday], but to be very candid with you, it’s not the standard that we’ve had here,” Lopez said. “The fact is we haven’t had the year we’d like to have, and we haven’t done a good job with situational at bats at all. I mean, my goodness, how many bases-loaded double plays did we hit into this weekend?” In Sunday’s contest, despite coming away with the victory, Arizona struggled to perform with bases loaded and only cashed in on one of four opportunities. “We teach strikeout, hit a pop out or get a fly ball or get a sac fly [in bases-loaded situations],” Lopez said. “Go ahead and get a base hit, or a double or triple, but do not hit a ground ball,” Lopez said. Sophomore pitcher Tyger Talley said the

Arizona women’s tennis awaits its fate for Tuesday, when the NCAA Women’s Tennis Selection Show will air and determine which region the Wildcats will end up in for the NCAA Women’s Tennis Tournament. Currently, the Intercollegiate Tennis Association ranks the Wildcats No. 23 in the country. “We had a great regular season,” head coach Vicky Maes said. “I feel our team was consistent and better all the way down the lineup than previous years, which allowed us to pull some upsets along the way.” Arizona’s high-profile wins have come against now-ranked No. 41 Purdue, No. 60 Georgia State, No. 39 Washington, No. 38 Utah and No. 24 ASU. Its high-profile losses have come against now-ranked No. 1 UCLA, No. 4 California, No. 9 Stanford, No. 13 USC and No. 30 Texas Tech. “I knew the strength of our group and certainly didn’t feel like our wins over Washington and ASU, for example, were upsets, but we still had to get the job done when those teams were ranked ahead of us,” Maes said. “Our focus is on the team tournament now, and we are excited to find out where we go.” The Wildcats have posted an 17-6 record overall, and they hope to bring the momentum from their undefeated at-home streak to the NCAA Tournament. “I think we need to make wherever we are stationed our home because we won’t have the U of A crowd and atmosphere,” senior Akilah James said. “We need to believe that we can win and that we beat some top teams in the country [already], so we do have that momentum.” The four senior leaders are ready to bring their previous postseason experience to lead

Freshman designated hitter Michael Hoard represents a new piece of the offensive puzzle that Arizona baseball head coach Andy Lopez is attempting to construct. Hoard, who saw his first action over the last six games on Sunday night, has made the most of his limited opportunities this season. Sunday, Hoard delivered a two-out, twoRBI double to spark the Wildcats’ offensive attack. He finished the game 2-for-3 at the plate. Lopez said that Hoard, a left-handed batter, will face every right-handed opposing pitcher from now on, adding that he is excited to get Hoard some at-bats to get him ready for next year. Despite the fact that Arizona amassed 11 hits in the series finale against ASU on Sunday, Lopez has belabored the fact that overall, the team’s situational hitting has been subpar and unacceptable. Over the first two games of the series, the Wildcats only combined for one
