Arizona running back Ka’Deem Carey will face charges this week stemming from a domestic violence incident involving his pregnant ex-girlfriend on Dec. 23, according to the Tucson Police Department. Carey will voluntarily present himself at the courthouse to answer to those charges, according to TPD. Sgt. Chris Widmer, a spokesman for the TPD, told multiple news outlets that charges will be filed this week. The Arizona Daily Wildcat spoke on the phone with the woman involved in the incident, Eller College of Management student Marissa Rambow, a Catalina Foothills native and Miss Arizona USA 2012 contestant. Although Rambow agreed to be identified in this report, she refused to comment on “private matters between Ka’Deem” and herself. According to court documents pertaining to Rambow’s petition for an order of protection against Carey, which he received on Dec. 31, the incident occurred when he went into her room “to obtain a lighter to use illegal substance in home.” Rambow, 23, asked him “multiple times” to leave the room and “he refused, pushed/shoved his way in and knocked [her] to the floor. Threatening [her] pregnancy and [herself ].” According to the documents, Carey then slammed Rambow’s fingers in the door when she tried to prevent him from smoking the substance inside the house. Rambow and Carey had been living together in the same home for the last year, she said. Both UA head football coach Rich Rodriguez and athletic director Greg Byrne released statements on Sunday pertaining to the incident. Rodriguez said, “I’ve spoken with Ka’Deem and am aware of the case. We take these matters very seriously and will support the authorities however we can. Once more specific information is available, we will act accordingly.” Byrne: “The University and Department of Athletics are fully aware of the situation. This is now a matter for the local authorities and we will fully cooperate and assist them as needed. At this point we will have no further comment.” Jeffrey Marks, Carey’s lawyer, said in an email that “Neither Mr.

Effort by TPD to collect weapons raises questions from community
OPINIONS — 4 JADE NUNES Arizona Daily Wildcat
About 200 guns were collected at a gun buyback program that sparked controversy in the Tucson community on the second anniversary of the Jan. 8, 2011, shooting. At 9 a.m. Tuesday, gun owners in Tucson began arriving at the Tucson Police Substation on 22nd Street and Alvernon Way to turn in unwanted firearms in exchange for a $50 Safeway gift card as part of the community’s first gun buyback program. Steve Kozachik, city councilman for Tucson’s Ward 6, organized the program with the help of the Tucson Police Department. According to Kozachik, more than $10,000 was donated in efforts to make the buyback a success. The donations helped Kozachik obtain the gift cards that were handed out to those who turned in weapons. “I came up with this idea right before Christmas,” Kozachik said. “I wanted to see if the city will embrace it.” Kozachik said that he picked the specific date to remind Tucson of how people came together as a com-
munity after the Jan. 8th shootings. Two years ago, Jared Lee Loughner opened fire at a “Congress on Your Corner” event at a Safeway in northwest Tucson. Six people were shot and killed and 13 more were injured, including former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. “We have a Columbine, a Connecticut, a January 8th, and it seems we talk about it for a few weeks,” Kozachik said. “I really just wanted to keep the conversation going, I hope that it will just keep the issue on people’s minds.” However, Tucson’s gun buyback was surrounded by controversy because of the possibility that the firearms collected would be destroyed by the TPD. In addition to those opposing the buyback, some attendees offered cash for unwanted guns. There were signs being held that said “Gas money for guns,” and “Real cash for guns.” “If the city destroys the guns, they’ll be in violation of the Arizona Revised Statutes,” said Todd Rathner, an Arizona lobbyist and member of the National Rifle Association’s national board of directors. “I think they’re not going to get anything
valuable done. They’re only going to get junk.” Rathner was referring to Title 12 Section 945 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which states “...if the property is a firearm, the court shall order the firearm to be sold to any business that is authorized to receive and dispose of the firearm under federal and state law and that shall sell the firearm to the public according to federal and state law, unless the firearm is otherwise prohibited from being sold under federal and state law.” Rathner said the statute makes it clear that the guns must be sold to a federal firearms dealer. He also added that the NRA did not oppose the buyback, but was focused on fighting against the destruction of the guns. “We’ve gone through our city attorney and reviewed the Arizona law,” said Sgt. Chris Widmer, a TPD spokesman. “Basically, for this buyback, we do not fall under that statute.” According to Widmer, any guns that had evidential value or were stolen would be held on to and processed, as in normal TPD procedure. Any gun collected that was not stolen

Following a proposal from the James E. Rogers College of Law and the approval of the Arizona Supreme Court, Arizona law students can now take the bar exam in their third year. The Arizona Supreme Court approved a trial period of two years on Dec. 10, 2012, making Arizona the only state in the country to allow students to take the exam while still enrolled in school. The trial period went into effect on Jan. 1 and will expire on Dec. 31, 2015. Previously, students would not take the bar exam until July and would typically not receive their results until October. “For students who want to have a five month lead on the job market, want to do the bar as part of their legal education, rather than to have another hill to climb after [graduation], for students who want to think differently about what that third year of law school provides, especially that last semester, the advantage[s] are enormous,” said Marc Miller, the UA College of Law interim dean. “If you take the February bar and graduate in May, you get your results in June.” The idea for this change came from former UA professor and current UC Davis professor of law Ga-

Provost candidate lays out vision for UA RYAN ROVECH Arizona Daily Wildcat
Andrew Comrie, the first of three candidates being interviewed for the position of UA provost, discussed his views for the future of the UA at a public forum on Tuesday at the Student Union Memorial Center. John Paul Jones III, dean of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences and chair of the Provost Search Advisory Committee, said initially there were more than 800 people that were either nominated, or invited to apply for the position of provost by UA.
“unrealized potential.” He went on to say that the UA is ahead when it comes to being an interdisciplinary institution and that we need it to stay that way. Comrie is currently vice president for academic affairs and interim provost. The UA has challenges, according to Comrie, such as a decrease in funds from the state. However, these challenges are not something other similar institutions are not experiencing. “We don’t have, I would say, our own particular Achilles heel, in terms of a weakness,” said Comrie.
Jones said that of those 800 plus possible candidates, there were 74 that showed interest in the position and 10 individuals were invited for airport interviews in December 2012. Four of the 10 candidates were then offered the opportunity to come to UA and speak. One individual declined the offer. The final decision is expected to be made approximately two weeks after the final candidate’s interview, said Jones. Comrie, who has worked at UA his entire professional career, opened by saying that the UA is a “great institution” that still has

Staff council weighs outreach Maxwell J. mangold Arizona Daily Wildcat
The Staff Advisory Council addressed matters affecting staff and UA campus-goers this upcoming semester at its monthly meeting. A variety of faculty department representatives meet the first Tuesday of each month to discuss pressing matters, in addition to providing updates about their individual sectors. Tuesday’s meeting marked the first of spring 2013 and covered topics from community outreach to the SAC conference to suggestions for new restaurants in the Student Union Memorial Center. “It involves complex discussion,” said Amy Morris, the associate editor for the chemistry and biochemistry department. “Voting or not to let this person over here have authority to move ahead and do something … that’s shared governance. That’s a concept that’s important for the University of Arizona.” Business matters discussed included a tri-university meeting, CatTran, the SAC website layout and preliminary talks about a parking garage behind Circle K on Sixth Street. Community outreach events discussed included “Cats in the Community Day,” an event that coordinates staff, students and faculty to help a non-profit organization. Additionally, members also discussed “On Our Own Time,” a staff art exhibit displaying works creat-
ed by UA employees or employees’ family members. “We’re like a small medieval town,” Morris said. “We have services, we have administration, we have sources of income, we have expenses … so the Staff Advisory Council is an example of the kind of things that staff is concerned about.” Several of the delegates said SAC’s yearly conference is what they are most excited for in this upcoming semester. The event, which takes place in June, includes seminars, guest speakers, opportunities to network and lunch. “It gives people a chance to feel pampered for the day,” said Julia Rudnick, the appointed professional advisory council representative. Rudnick added that it’s an exciting occasion for faculty, although last year’s event, which was her first, left her feeling “overwhelmed.” Richard Salazar, the Parking and Transportation Services representative, said he is also looking forward to the event, and added that SAC plans are always in the making and something is always going on. “I think in general it’s good to cruise around for students to see the Staff Advisory Committee, see what we’re doing, see what the issues might be,” Morris said. For students interested in voicing ideas to help staff, meetings are held in the Pima room in the student union on the first Tuesday of every month.
turki Allugman/arizona Daily Wildcat ASUA Students for Sustainability is working with UA staff to increase recycling on campus. Project leader Leah Edwards began the effort in January 2010.
Effort aims to boost recycling ALISON DORF Arizona Daily Wildcat
Members of ASUA Students for Sustainability will spend the first three days of the semester educating students and staff about a large-scale project launched over winter break that aims to renew the university’s recycling system. Students and staff spent Jan. 2 through 4 installing 2,700 new bins in every building on campus. Today, students can expect to see one green and one blue bin next to every trash can, covering a total of 1,350 recycling areas on campus. Associated Students of the University of Arizona Students for Sustainability will have a booth on the UA Mall Wednesday through Friday to explain the changes. The recycling initiative is a collaboration between UA Facilities Management, Students for Sustainability, Eco-Reps and Ecoops. The project aims to improve recycling rates by replacing all old bins with new, more conveniently
the recycling program. “There is really a great collaboration going on here between students, several organizations and custodial staff,” said Chris Kopach, assistant vice president for UA Facilities Management. UA Facilities Management has been a big partner in the initiative, designing and paying for all of the bins and lids, which totaled about $6,500. Each lid is clearly marked with which materials to recycle, as well as the Facilities Management logo. Kopach has also coordinated with Edwards, building managers and waste management partners. “This is the culmination of a long process,” said David Munro, program coordinator for Facilities Management. “We now have a new bin, new lid, new signage and a greater sense of uniformity for the recycling program.” The project comes in preparation for Recycle Mania, an annual competition among university recycling programs. In addition to the new bins, Students for Sustainability has made several attempts to promote recycling on campus. Recently, the group introduced recycling to tailgating. Last year more than 22 tons of recyclable material were collected that would otherwise have gone to the landfill, according to Kopach.
located bins, excluding those in the student unions and residence life halls, which have their own custodial staff that takes care of recycling. Leah Edwards, project leader for Students for Sustainability and a junior studying political science, public health and environmental and water resource economics, began the project in January 2010 after noticing a discrepancy in bin distribution around campus. Over the past three years, Edwards has been making maps of every floor of every building on campus to determine the best location for new bins. “I really want to see improved recycling rates,” Edwards said. “It would be great to be able to educate students and staff about what can be recycled.” Recycling rates significantly increase when bins are placed next to trash cans, Edwards said. Students will most likely choose to recycle when the bins are conveniently placed. If recycling rates do improve on campus, the university can collect rebates from Waste Management, Inc. that will cover the cost of
UA office smooths transition for international students Renee Valencia Arizona Daily Wildcat
As many international students face a lengthy process when coming to the UA, International Student Services is focused on creating an easier transition. The International Student Services staff continually guides new students through their transition, from before they come to the U.S. until they graduate from the UA, said Noelle Sallaz, the International Student Services adviser and program coordinator. Orientation provides essential information for students regarding schedules, advising, housing, financial costs, health insurance and legal services through a part of orientation called Succeeding at UA, Sallaz added. “The main goal is to transition students comfortably,” Sallaz said. Sallaz works with fellow orientation coordinator Len Tecson to prepare for spring semester orientation, which takes about two to three months to plan. “The ISS helps students from more than 100 different countries transition to the university,” Sallaz said. The orientation, which took place in the first few days of January, consisted of 280 international students. “Don’t be scared and have faith in yourself,” said Chirag Agarwal, an electrical and chemical engineering sophomore and volunteer for ISS orientation. This is the advice he gives to incoming freshman, along with his

Community Chatter The Newtown, Conn., and Aurora, Colo., shootings reignited the gun control debate. This year marks the second anniversary of a similar tragedy that occurred at a Safeway grocery store in Tucson, where six people were killed and 13 were injured, including former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. In light of these events, should there be more restrictions placed on guns and ammunition? Should there be more gun control?
“I don’t think people should have like AK-47s to protect yourself. I don’t think that’s right. I don’t think people should have access to military-grade guns and ammunition. I mean they were in a school and killed kindergartners, at a Safeway. I mean, these are places you go everyday. Of course you need better mental healthcare. You wouldn’t give a schizophrenic person an AK-47.” -Lindsey Cushman, nursing freshman

“As far as we’re concerned, this is a political stunt just trying to pass new gun legislation in Tucson,” said Daniel Anderson, a community member and NRA supporter. “Some people probably feel like they’re doing something good, or some people just have some pretty shitty guns they want to get rid of that they couldn’t otherwise.”
“I don’t think that it’s really the guns that are the problem. There needs to be better mental healthcare. Maybe there are some limitations to put on some types of weapons, because I don’t see anybody needing like a high magazine clip or something like that. Increase access to medical care and things of that nature. More preventative measures.” -Sam Kinkade, aerospace engineering freshman
“Well, gun control is a good idea. It’s probably not politically, you know, possible too much, given the Supreme Court decisions that have pretty much handcuffed government as far as constraints that can be placed on gun ownership.” -Joseph Tolliver, associate professor of philosophy
Anderson also said that he felt that his Second Amendment rights would be infringed upon if Tucson did in fact pursue a change in gun legislation. Other attendees welcomed the opportunity to turn in guns. “One less gun on the street is good,” said Darrell McQueen, a community member and attendee. “I heard about buybacks in other cities and I was hoping Tucson would do one. I never thought Tucson would but I’m glad they did.”
“I just feel that somebody that is evil is going to do evil things one way or another, doesn’t matter if they have a gun or not. Stick of dynamite, a knife, whatever, they will do bad things and if it just so happens that some good Samaritan needs to defend themselves and they have the capabilities of doing that, I don’t see a problem with that.” -Samuel Newbold, general studies senior

the process for each student requires the same documentation, each experience varies depending on the person. “First I had to take two years of English classes in Texas, and now I am a freshman here,” said Abdulaziz, a mechanical engineering freshman from Saudi Arabia. “I was planning on attending the University of Texas but Tucson has a lower cost of living and people that I know.” Some students experienced multiple rejections for a
“I think what would help majorly would be if they did psychological tests on people who bought guns, because it’s not that hard to get guns.

But I am looking forward to receiving a high quality education.” Despite difficulties, students are excited at the prospect of attending the UA. “I am sure I am the first person from my country to attend the University of Arizona,” said Sidy Traore, a geography freshman from Burkina Faso. “I came to the University of Arizona because it was my destiny.”

A
s the semester unfolds, the Arizona Daily Wildcat is striving to broaden its digital presence: In addition to our website, you can catch us on Facebook and Twitter. We’re playing with Instagram, Pinterest and Tumblr. We’re trying to be all over the Internet. We don’t have much of a choice, really. Given the floundering state of print media at the professional and collegiate levels, news outlets everywhere are under pressure to make the Internet work for them. But what’s important to recognize as my staff and I explore digital media strategies is that the Daily Wildcat staff is more than a bunch of Facebooking, Instatweeting automatons. Surprise: We’re students. Backwards curmudgeons and the technologically challenged can gripe all they want about the rise of electronic screens and the death of human interaction, but the truth is that there’s a real person behind every Facebook post and Twitter update, and they want to connect with you. What’s your story? The Wildcat is staffed by storytellers, though our mediums vary. I love the written word, and plenty of Wildcat reporters feel the same. But visuals editor Kyle Wasson is an ace at telling a story in a single photo. Resident videographer extraordinaire Tyler Besh can tell a story in three minutes or less through his camera. And it’s up to digital media editor Casey Lewandrowski to make sure we say it all in 140 characters or fewer. So even though we’ll spend a lot of time talking about how to make you notice our Facebook posts, and we’ll probably blow up your Twitter feed on multiple occasions, we’re not doing it for the clicks. OK, we’re doing it for the clicks too. But we’re mostly doing it for you. Tell us your story. Occasionally, UA alumni will email or call me about an article in our archives that they somehow stumbled upon 10 pages deep in Google results. These articles are often stories published long before I joined the Daily Wildcat staff, sometimes decades ago. Still, I go looking for them. What I find interesting is that a story in the Wildcat has stayed with those people, even years after it was published. But I’m entering my second semester as the Daily Wildcat’s editor-in-chief and my last semester at the UA. I’ve come to realize that the best and worst moments of my life have happened in the last three and a half years, and, like for many of the alumni who have contacted me, some of those moments are preserved in the archives of the Daily Wildcat. The Wildcat’s roots aren’t in ink and paper. Its roots are in stories that matter. Regardless of what form it is published in, the work of the Daily Wildcat preserves the best and worst moments of the UA’s history, and maybe of yours too. You will hold on to the stories that come out of these years. You’ll want a record of them. And maybe in a couple of decades, you’ll contact another editor-in-chief, looking for a story published this semester, because it once mattered to you. — Kristina Bui is the editor-inchief of the Arizona Daily Wildcat.

Pro: Gun control would save lives
Armed guards can’t prevent tragedy, weapons ban can NATHANIEL DRAKE Arizona Daily Wildcat
N
ot even the horrific events at Sandy Hook Elementary School could make the National Rifle Association budge on its historically conservative stance concerning gun regulations. A statement made by Wayne LaPierre, the CEO and executive vice president of the NRA, made it clear that the NRA will continue to fight fire with fire, as it called for armed guards to be placed in every school. “Would you rather have your 911 call bring a good guy with a gun from a mile away or from a minute away?” LaPierre asked. Take the UA, for example, which has its own armed police force like any other university. Since the police station is on campus and there are officers constantly patrolling, in the event of an emergency, our police force would be able to respond with multiple armed officers in less than 60 seconds. But response time isn’t the issue. In 2002, Robert Flores Jr. killed three professors at the UA even though witnesses said the police were on the scene in three minutes. More recently, in 2007, Seung Hui-Cho killed 32 people and wounded more than a dozen others at Virginia Tech despite the presence of armed police officers on campus.
It isn’t the armed presence that needs to change at schools, shopping malls, movie theaters and temples; it’s the circumstances our officers are forced to work in. Semi-automatic assault rifles are capable of firing 50-60 rounds in a minute. There is no place for these weapons in society. Even with the UAPD’s impressive response times, the number of lives these weapons could end in a university lecture hall would devastate the UA community. This issue isn’t about the constitutional right to bear arms, either. The constitutional rights guaranteed to citizens of the United States can be limited — take libel and slander, for instance. Similar restrictions need to be placed on the Second Amendment in the form of a ban on assault weapons to prevent tragic mass shootings in the future. In addition to an assault weapons ban, Congress should limit the number of bullets that a single magazine can hold, and no person should be able to buy more than two clips at a time. An assault weapons ban may not be retroactive, but limiting the number of bullets a person can buy at a time would help filter massive firepower out of American society more quickly. In this year alone, we’ve seen mass shootings at a movie theater, at an elementary school and at a Sikh temple, and in all three of those shootings the guns were purchased legally. Yes, guns don’t kill people; people kill people. But at the moment, people are doing a pretty good job of killing people with their guns. It’s time that we do something about it. — Nathaniel Drake is a sophomore studying political science and communication.

Con: Banning weapons infringes on Second Amendment
Violent actions of few does not justify limiting rights of many DAVID WEISSMAN Arizona Daily Wildcat
I
n the wake of the tragic shooting that occurred in Newtown, Conn., on Dec. 14, many politicians, as well as commentators and members of the general public, called for stricter gun control measures. Last week, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., introduced new legislation regulating assault weapons. The proposed legislation is meant to be a renewal and expansion of the Federal Assault Weapons Ban of 1994, which expired in 2004. Its provisions include banning magazines or clips holding more than 10 rounds, as well as requiring gun owners to federally register their guns. Sen. Feinstein is proposing a simple solution to a complex problem, a solution that has more to do with her ideological beliefs and goals than crafting a logical response to the Newtown shooting. Punishing the millions of law-abiding American gun owners for the violent actions

of one man would be downright draconian. Merely banning high-capacity magazines will not prevent shootings. For example, the Columbine High School shooting in 1999 occurred under the ban, which dictated how many and what kind of attachments were allowed on a rifle, including sights, scopes and bayonet lugs. An “assault weapon” refers to magazine capacity and attachments, both cosmetic and functional. Assault weapons, as detailed by the ban, are not automatic weapons. Automatic weapons have been heavily regulated since the National Firearms Act of 1934, and are extremely difficult for members of the general public to possess. Firearms regulated by the ban are semi-automatic. Even if all guns were banned, those who seek to wreak death and destruction on the innocent will always find a way, For example, in 1995, Timothy McVeigh carried out the Oklahoma City bombing with a bomb made largely of fertilizer. There are far more law-abiding gun owners in the United States than there are people who harbor intentions like shooter Adam Lanza’s. Lanza was murderous and mentally unstable and, like McVeigh, would have found a different way to perpetrate his crime if he did not have access to a gun. Gun crime has been steadily decreasing in
the United States even as gun ownership has risen. There are a multitude of factors that could have contributed to Lanza’s rampage, as well as that of James Holmes’ at a Colorado movie theater. Some point to violent video games, as Norwegian shooter Anders Breivik allegedly played Call of Duty to train. However, the more likely culprit for mass shootings is the lack of attention given to the mentally ill. Connecticut recently defeated a bill allowing “involuntary outpatient commitment,” which would allow a judge to compel a person to undergo psychiatric treatment or be forcefully hospitalized. All but six states have such laws. It is uncertain whether Lanza would have been recognized as a threat before his rampage, and the benefit of hindsight might inflate what the defeated bill’s effect could have been. However, such legislation has the potential to prevent violent crimes in the future. Political efforts focused on demonizing guns and gun owners, rather than addressing the mental health problem in this country, are disgraceful. — David Weissman is a journalism junior.

“You shouldn’t mess with crazy people.”
A disturbance caused by a UA student at the UofA Bookstore triggered a University of Arizona Police Department response at 12:33 p.m. on Jan. 4. The man yelled at staff and smacked books, then threw a book while in line. “Are you, like, 5?” a staff member said. “You’re going to graduate and become an ugly stripper,” the man replied, adding, “You shouldn’t mess with crazy people.” The man then left the area. The woman said she never felt threatened by the suspect, but was concerned since the man, who looked to be in his 40s, had a child with him. UAPD got the man’s contact information from the bookstore transaction, but was unable to reach him. Bookstore staff said they did not want to participate in any future legal proceedings.

Benz on blocks
A UA student returned to her 2000 Mercedes-Benz Roadster in the Sixth Street Parking Garage after winter break to find all four tires had been stolen. The car was resting on cement blocks upon her return. UAPD responded to the garage on Jan. 2, when the woman initially noticed the theft. The Mercedes was identified with Illinois license plates, and there was no apparent damage to the vehicle besides the missing tires. The student was able to provide a handwritten note dated Dec. 25, 2012, left by an officer who’d noticed the condition of her vehicle and detailing who to contact when she returned. The woman had no idea who could have been responsible for the theft, and did not know the value of the missing parts. There are currently no leads or suspects.

A non-UA affiliated man was tackled to the floor and handcuffed after attempting to shoplift from the UofA Bookstore at 12:33 p.m. on Jan 4. A loss prevention staff member restrained the man on the ground, while a UAPD officer handcuffed him. The officer noted that the man had slurred speech and red eyes. On video surveillance, the man was seen walking into the bookstore, putting on a red sweatshirt and then concealing white sunglasses and a baseball cap under the sweatshirt. He then grabbed a red and blue beanie and shoved it down the front of his jeans before exiting the store. The prevention officer met the man outside and told him to return to the store to discuss the incident. The man shoved the officer and ran southbound down the breezeway outside the bookstore. The prevention officer chased the man and grabbed his sweater, causing him to fall and be restrained on the ground. He was then turned over to the UAPD officer. The suspect told the officer he entered the bookstore to “do a little shopping,” which is when he saw several items he “was amazed at.” The items, which totaled $128.96, were returned to bookstore loss prevention staff, and a copy of the surveillance video was turned in to police as evidence. The suspect was provided a citation and told not to return to the any of the university’s bookstores.

briel Chin two years ago at a UA lunch for third-year law school students. “I know at medical school students take their exams while they’re in school, so when they graduate they are heading off to a residency or training and it really is, they immediately head to the next thing,” Chin said. “Then I thought, well you know, it is too bad that we don’t do this in law school ...Obviously we could, it is simply a question of … people who establish the bar rules, which are the Arizona Supreme Court, making it possible.” Chin brought the idea to Miller who, along with associate dean Sally Rider, took it to the chief justice of the Arizona Supreme Court. Once Miller saw there was interest, he immediately brought in the other Arizona law schools, and the
News • Wednesday, January 9, 2013 proposal was officially brought to the Arizona Supreme Court in January of last year. Alex Hecker, a third-year law student at the UA, said he feels this change could help some students financially. “I think it is going to be most helpful in situations where you have people under a lot of economic pressures to pass the bar or to start working immediately,” Hecker said. However, the change does not automatically affect every law student in Arizona. While students have the option to take the bar exam in February, they can also take it in July as usual, according to Miller. There will be changes to the curriculum for students who want to take the bar exam in February, according to UA professor Susan Salmon. Salmon developed the curriculum with help from local judges and lawyers. However, it has not yet been approved by UA faculty.

Comrie, who is involved with the UA’s strategic plan, said he wants to make decisions and choices that will bring the UA to the next level in the future. He said he wants UA to be known as an institution where students get an “engagement experience” to go along with their education, meaning that everyone gets real world experience whether it’s through research or internships. “We sometimes talk about the journalism program in SBS [College of Social and Behavioral Sciences] for example where 100 percent of those students get a practical experience that helps them integrate what they do, and we said ‘Why don’t we just do this for 100 percent of our students?’” said Comrie. Comrie said he is “consultative” on making big decisions. “Any of the big decisions that I have had to make I have engaged a whole bunch of folks and not done that solo, so that I, frankly, we, made a smart decision and if we made a wrong decision it was one we made as a large group not something me marching to my own drummer made,” Comrie said. Tom Buchanan, director of development for the UA’s Institute for LGBT Studies, said he is excited for Comrie to be one of the final candidates. “It is just good to see someone who knows this university as well as he does, someone with a good head good heart who is one of the finalist candidates, it is just great to see,” said Tom Buchanan the Director of Development for the UA Institute for LGBT Studies.
There will most likely be no classes in the beginning of the spring semester so students can focus on studying for the exam, Salmon said. “We really want to focus on studying for the bar and not skipping out on their regular classes and trying to fit it in,” Salmon said. “We want them to have the best possible chances to succeed.” Jeffrey Grynkewich, a second-year law student at the Phoenix School of Law, plans on taking advantage of this change next school year. Grynkewich said he wants to use the opportunity to start working sooner after graduation. “I will be in one of the groups where I have taken all the classes that are going to be covered on it [bar exam] so I will be able to take the bar, complete my final studies, and look for a job and I feel I will be extra marketable to employers that way,” Grynkewich said.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Lindsey Graham threatened Tuesday to block Senate consideration of President Barack Obama’s nominee to head the CIA in retaliation for the Obama administration’s failure to provide more details about the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. The South Carolina Republican’s threat to place a hold on the nomination of John Brennan as CIA director raises doubts about a second senior national security leadership pick by Obama, with several senators already questioning former Sen. Chuck Hagel’s qualifications to be defense secretary. Graham, a Senate Armed Services Committee member who served as a military lawyer in Iraq and Afghanistan, also voiced concerns about Hagel, a former Republican senator from Nebraska who was nominated Monday. But Graham indicated likely support for Obama’s pick of Sen. John Kerry, a Massachusetts Democrat, to be secretary of state. Criticism over the Benghazi assault, which killed four Americans, from Graham and fellow Republican Sens. John McCain of Arizona and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire contributed to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice’s decision last month to withdraw her name for consideration as secretary of state. Graham brought up Rice again Tuesday in explaining why he is weighing a block of Brennan’s nomination to head the CIA. “I have not forgotten about the Benghazi debacle and still have many questions about what transpired before, during and after the attack on our consulate,” Graham said in a prepared
statement. “In that regard, I do not believe we should confirm anyone as director of the CIA until our questions are answered — like who changed Ambassador Susan Rice’s talking points and who deleted the references to al-Qaida?” Graham said. “My support for a delay in confirmation is not directed at Mr. Brennan, but is an unfortunate, yet necessary action to get information from this administration.” In appearances on TV talk shows Sept. 16, five days after the Benghazi attack, Rice described them as spontaneous violent responses to an anti-Islam film produced in the United States. Her description contradicted subsequent claims by the CIA and other senior U.S. officials who said the attack was well-planned and coordinated by al-Qaida terrorists. Rice and her defenders later said she had relied in her initial account on talking points provided to her by the White House, but Senate investigators subsequently found that several intelligence agencies had changed them to remove references to al-Qaida participation in the Benghazi assault. White House press secretary Jay Carney on Tuesday criticized Graham for threatening to delay Brennan’s nomination. “It would be unfortunate, I think, if in pursuit of this issue, which was highly politicized, the Senate would hold up the nomination of John Brennan to be director of the Central Intelligence Agency,” Carney told reporters. “As the president said yesterday, that post, as well as the position of secretary of defense, secretary of state _ these are essential positions that need to be filled, if possible, without delay.”

What does it mean to be Safe Zone certified? It sounds simple enough: someone who is trained in creating a safe environment. But a safe environment for whom? Isn’t our campus a safe environment as it is? Our campus has been deemed “safer,” with more than 1,000 members of the community becoming Safe Zone certified since the Office of LGBTQ Affairs revamped the program in 2010. While the program isn’t necessarily making the campus “safer” per se, it is raising awareness. Safe Zone training is a twopart workshop that educates
Safe Zone provides glimpse into world of LGBTQ students students on what it means to be an LGBTQ ally. Part one, the general education workshop, explores definitions, describes symbols and surveys the history of the LGBTQ community.

The program not only educates the students who complete it, but also attempts to give participants a small glimpse into the world of LGBTQ students through various activities and

During the workshop, Hannah Lozon, the coordinator for social justice education for Residence Life, makes sure that participants not only understand what the terms are, but how to listen and react to individuals trying to tell his, her or hir (a gender-neutral pronoun) own unique story. It’s also about showing the campus community that there are a growing number of individuals who are here for the support and advocacy of oppressed groups. Posting a Safe Zone bumper sticker
or certificate around campus lets students know that there are people out there providing encouragement. The five hours of training are worth it to understand the struggles that people in our classes, our residence halls and our clubs face every day. The program is geared toward students and staff at the UA, but anyone who takes it can use the knowledge they take away throughout their life. Being Safe Zone certified will differentiate you from the many others who haven’t had the opportunity to be educated about these topics. Next time you’re on campus, keep an eye out for Safe Zone certificates and get involved yourself.

Babies make waves with standout album PReSS PHOTO
K.C. LIBMAN Arizona Daily Wildcat
In the canon of surf-inspired, decidedly West Coast jangle pop, saturation is the norm. Bands who have capitalized on sunny, reverb-soaked sounds are a dime a dozen, often trying to emulate the success of Best Coast’s brilliant first album (prior to Bethany Cosentino’s Urban Outfitters sellout). Even Best Coast itself tried to be Best Coast on its follow-up album, 2012’s lackluster The Only Place. At first listen to The Babies’ single from Our House On The Hill, the head-nodding “Baby,” it’d be all too easy to pigeonhole
the Los Angeles-based band as just another surf group. It’s when you dig into the band’s accolades and digest the album as a whole that you realize The Babies hold a wealth of promise. Formed by Cassie Ramone of Vivian Girls, Justin Sullivan of Bossy and Kevin Morby of Woods, The Babies could easily be labeled an indie supergroup — if the phrase “indie supergroup” wasn’t an oxymoron, that is. From the opening strums of “Alligator,” Our House’s first track, it’s easy to tell that this is an approachable album. The lyricism is straightforward and relatable, the musicianship is delightfully loose and
the vocal interplay between Ramone and Morby harkens to eras past. Out of that vast pool of musical talent comes the true accreditation of a pop band — hooks that are as delightfully enjoyable as anything on the radio, sans the embarrassment of admitting to listening to such things. “Get Lost” is a standout that’s toetappingly good, layering fuzzed-out guitars, jingle bells and Morby’s yawping vocal approach together to create a sugary confection of a song without being cloying. Morby also proves to be as sensitive as he is uplifting, engaging the listener with the stripped-down “Mean” halfway through
the album. Though he utilizes a spacedout backup vocal from Ramone, it’s the arrangement of Morby’s heart-on-a-sleeve lyrics over a plucked nylon-stringed guitar that’s riveting above all else. If Ramone’s success with Vivian Girls and Morby’s prolific body of work with Woods are any indication of the things to come for The Babies, there are bound to be more expansive and adventurous releases from the band. The ground covered on Our House, while fitting nicely into genre classification for the iTunes crowd, shows that jangle pop can both be well-crafted and exude true singer-songwriter elements in the same candy-coated release.
What you missed: the best entertaiment of winter break JASON KRELL Arizona Daily Wildcat
The end of a semester is always full of missed opportunities for enjoyment. Everyone is simply too busy to keep up with the constantly moving machine that is the entertainment industry. Winter break isn’t much better either, as it’s usually reserved for traveling and catching up with old friends and family. It doesn’t leave much time for self-indulgence. The beginning of a semester, though – that’s the perfect time to catch up. Sure everyone is getting back into the groove of school, but the workload isn’t quite as heavy and there is always time to squeeze in a new experience or two during the day. So here are some things you might have missed in the tail end of last semester’s chaos. Music – Kendrick Lamar When I first heard his music in October, I pretty much wrote him off as just another rapper. There

But after taking some time to really listen to Lamar’s album, good kid, m.A.A.d city, I can tell you he’s worth your time. While Lamar probably has plenty of fans already, he’s still new enough that plenty of people are writing him off as just another voice in the crowd.

Regents approve McKale project CAMERON MOON Arizona Daily Wildcat
Photo by Jordin O’Connor/arizona Daily Wildcat McKALE CENTER IS GOING TO RECEIVE an $80 million facelift, expected to begin in the summer of 2014.
McKale Memorial Center turns 40 years old in 2013, and it’s getting an early birthday present. The Arizona Board of Regents approved a proposed $80 million renovation at a meeting on the UA campus in December. With the approval, the university is able to complete the design portion of the renovation process, which includes putting together a financial plan. “Once the project is designed, they need to come back to the board for what is called ‘project approval,’ where they can begin construction,” said Lorenzo Martinez, the associate vice president for finance and administration and regent. “They’ve already been through the first two steps, and now it will primarily depend on how long it takes them to complete the design and how to sort of figure out their financing plan and get that squared away.” In the Capital Development Plan presented to the regents, the university said that McKale “has been operating with insufficient access, restrooms, concessions, points of sale, and spectator amenities, and without needed premium seating.” The plan also set a target date for construction to begin in summer 2014. While athletic director Greg Byrne said Tuesday that it is “too early to tell exactly what it will
look like,” there are two main focuses in the renovation efforts: the fan experience and the student-athlete experience. “From a student-athlete side, because we need to make sure we always remember why we’re here,” Byrne said, “we have a lot of locker rooms we have to address for a lot of our sports.” In addition to the locker rooms, Byrne would also like to upgrade the academic support areas in McKale, the video and score boards and the playing floor, as well as the seating areas. “Chances are, McKale will go out away from the existing structure, widened out toward the Cherry Street [Parking] Garage or the [Hillenbrand Aquatic Center],” Byrne said. The UA is already in the midst of a major construction project, with the football program moving into the Lowell-Stevens facility located in the north end zone of Arizona Stadium next season. Byrne said the added space in McKale will “impact our locker room space for our 19 sports, and we will prioritize those and start working on those, but that will be a part of the renovation process.” In order to gain a better sense of the type of renovations that will take place, Byrne toured Pauley Pavilion on the UCLA campus, which underwent a $132 million renovation from 2010-2012, and he will tour the new basketball stadium at the University of Oregon, Matthew Knight Arena, on
Thursday with a group of donors. “You always look at facilities, ideas and thoughts to bring into what you’re doing,” Byrne said. Last summer, Arizona baseball won its first national championship in 26 years playing at Hi Corbett Field, which Byrne and head coach Andy Lopez cited as a major factor in winning a championship in June. “It certainly has an impact,” Byrne said. “You’re either getting better or getting worse. You can’t stay the same. You have to reinvest in your success. McKale is 40 years old, and it’s time to reinvest.” Byrne does not expect to get any state dollars for the funding of the renovation project, so the next step is to put together a financial model for approval by UA President Ann Hart and the regents. Martinez said that in approving a plan like the McKale renovations, the regents look at the justification for the project and “how it supports the core mission of the university, whether it be recruitment and retention of students, or community involvement.” Byrne neglected to give a specific amount of time needed for fundraising, but did say that he would like the construction to have begun “yesterday.” “It’s too early to put an exact time frame on it, but we’re moving as quickly and efficiently as we possibly can right now,” he said.

efty Gomez, an All-Star pitcher with the Yankees in the 1930s, is said to have coined the phrase “I’d rather be lucky than good.” The No. 4 Arizona basketball team (14-0, 2-0 Pac-12) is certainly lucky, but whether it’s as good as its ranking indicates is still up for discussion. The weekly AP Top 25 poll released on Monday had Arizona dropping from No. 3 to No. 4, despite winning every game this season. The team that jumped them, Louisville, has one loss. Presumably, voters didn’t take too kindly to the Colorado controversy or way-too-close-for-comfort win against Utah. Many are calling them the “Cardiac ’Cats,” and it’s pretty clear why. Games against Florida, San Diego State, Colorado and Utah have all come down to the last shot. “The objective, I guess, is to win by the biggest margin we possibly can,” head coach Sean Miller said at a Tuesday press conference. “We’re failing in that area but I know we’re 14-0, and I know to be 14-0 you need to be in a number of close games.” Just look at the game against Colorado in the Pac-12 opener on Jan. 3 in McKale Center. At one point in the first half, Arizona trailed by 17 points. For more than half of the game it trailed by at least 10. With 1:44 remaining, the Wildcats were down 78-70. They got it to within two points with 16 seconds left, and after a foul and two missed Colorado free throws, Arizona tied the game on two Lyons’s makes from the charity stripe. You know what happens next. Sabatino Chen banked in a 3-point jumper as time expired. The Buffs rejoiced, game over. Or not. Officials decided to overturn the call, Arizona won 92-83 in overtime and Twitter exploded. Talk about playing with fire. “Luck is on our side right now, but it won’t be on our side forever,” sixth man Kevin Parrom said after the Colorado game. After narrowly escaping the Utes with a 60-57 win, Parrom said virtually the same thing. “I think tonight we expected to win by 20 because it’s Utah,” said Parrom, who has garnered 23 points and 16 rebounds in the last two games, “but they played hard from
start to finish and we pulled out another lucky one. [We’ve been] lucky for a couple weeks now but that luck is gonna run out soon and we gotta play hard as a team.” It’s not all luck, though. As the No. 4 team in the nation and the lone ranked Pac-12 squad, Arizona has a target on its back. Teams play their best against the best, and right now Arizona is the cream of the crop. This weekend, the Wildcats travel to Oregon to take on UO (12-2, 1-0) and Oregon State (10-4, 0-1). The Ducks are probably the second or third best team in the conference right now, so that should be another tightly contested game. “We’re going to get everybody’s best shot,” said Lyons, who has shot 9-of-30 in the last two games. “So when we have close games and stuff like that, personally, I never worry. I know people are going to try to play their best against us.” Colorado followed up its collapse against Arizona with a 9-point loss to ASU, while Utah has losses to Sacramento State, SMU and Cal State Northridge. If Arizona is going to go deep into the NCAA tournament in March, it will have to start playing up its potential, instead of down to its opponents. “We can play better, we have played better,” Miller said. “I know that where we hope to be, we’re not anywhere close to that.” As Parrom said, the luck might eventually run out. But, hey, the Wildcats spent most of last year on the other side of that coin, so it’s not all bad. Not counting the “postseason” NIT loss to Bucknell, Arizona lost its 11 games by an average of 5.5 points per game. In fact, in the Pac-12 Championship game against the Buffs, ex-Wildcat Kyle Fogg missed a shot at the buzzer that would have sent Arizona to the NCAA tournament for the second straight year. “It’s not that easy,” Miller said after beating Colorado. “It’s not all luck, but there is some good fortune. Last year we had four or five games that came to the last shot and I don’t know if we ever won one.” — Zack Rosenblatt is a journalism senior.

Men’s basketball off to hard-won perfect start KYLE JOHNSON
Arizona Daily Wildcat
Things did not come easily for the No. 4 Arizona men’s basketball team in the opening weekend of Pac-12 play. A judgment call helped the Wildcats escape with a win against Colorado and Utah had a shot to win in the waning moments of the game, both of which contributed to Arizona falling a spot behind oneloss Louisville in the AP Poll. When senior guard Mark Lyons looks at it, though, all he sees is a perfect 14-0 record. “There are a lot of teams in the country that wish they were 14-0, in our [same] boat,” Lyons said. Only Duke, Michigan and Wyoming remain alongside Arizona with perfect starts to the season, but the last few wins haven’t been easy for the Wildcats. While Lyons said he cherishes the great start, he’s also not satisfied with where the team is. “We’re a team that just wants to get better,” Lyons said. “We’re not like the fat ’Cats who are just happy with 14-0. From our perspective we just take it one game at a time … If we win, we win. If we lose, we just got to learn from it.” One reason why head coach Sean Miller felt that the team had a sluggish start to conference play was the Hawaiian Airlines Diamond Head Classic tournament it won over the winter break. The three-game tournament in Hawaii offered some important
challenges to the team, Miller said, but it had the side effect of disrupting the team’s normal schedule. That didn’t put Arizona in the best shape for the opening weekend of Pac12 play, and it was reflected in the outcomes of the two games. “We return to normalcy for the first time in a while and I believe we’ll benefit from that,” Miller said. “This past weekend we were fortunate to be 2-0.” Arizona picked up victories against Miami and No. 16 San Diego State, both of which will be key come seeding for the NCAA tournament. The Diamond Head Classic required a significant chunk of time, though, making Miller re-evaluate playing in tournaments around Christmas time. “It’s so hard to do that because it’s really a seven-day journey … and then you have to fit Christmas in,” Miller said. “Your players need to have the opportunity to either go home or recharge their batteries.” The Wildcats played San Diego State on Christmas and then had several days off to celebrate the holidays. Lyons felt that the team would be clicking a lot better right now if they hadn’t had the break, but players needed the chance to see their families. “I’m not the type that has excuses and stuff like that but [playing in the tournament] was kind of tough,” Lyons said. “We had a long stretch — 20 days — that honestly took a lot from our bodies.”
Dwindling roles for Chol and York
Arizona started the season with a 10-deep rotation, but as the season has progressed, minutes for sophomore forward Angelo Chol and freshman guard Gabe York have quickly shrunk. York played in the first five games for the Wildcats, though in a limited reserve role, but has only played in three games since. Chol has seen court action in every game this season, yet he’s only getting 8.6 minutes of play, more than three minutes less than he averaged as a freshman. In the Wildcats’ last three contests Chol has also averaged just three minutes a game. “We believe in Angelo,” Miller said. “As we’ve gone smaller for lengths of time, and you take into consideration [the three freshmen big men], he hasn’t played as much. Angelo brings some great things to the table and his best basketball is ahead of him.” Chol, a sophomore, is actually younger than freshmen big men Grant Jerrett and Kaleb Tarczewski and didn’t start playing basketball until seventh grade. Miller said the time will come for both him and York as they develop as players. Chol is averaging exactly 2.0 points and 2.0 minutes per game this season, while York has 23 points in his 50 minutes of play this season.

Casino del Sol to host football All-Star game “I was telling Dayne and Jeff before practice, ‘Guys, I’ve only snapped under center twice, against Oklahoma State and Nevada,’” Quinn said. “So they got a kick out of that.” Now, after five years at Arizona and two as its starting center, Quinn will try to impress scouts enough to hear his name called on April 25-27 in the NFL Draft. And he’ll be getting tutelage from two prominent former Wildcat coaches. Dick Tomey, the former UA head coach who went 95-64-4 in 13 years, and Ron McBride, a former offensive line coach at the UA and longtime Utah coach, will be leading the West squad that Quinn, Tutogi and Austin will all play on. “They’re all big time coaches out here,” Tutogi said. “It’s an honor and a blessing that we were chosen to play in this game.” Quinn is particularly excited
ZACK ROSENBLATT Arizona Daily Wildcat
As center Kyle Quinn preps for his first post-Arizona football game, he’s noticed one major difference. “Now we get to huddle, now we get to snap under center,” Quinn said with a laugh at Monday’s practice for the Casino del Sol All-Star game. Quinn, along with former Wildcat fullback/defensive end Taimi Tutogi and defensive end Dominique Austin, will play in the second annual game on Friday at 7 p.m. at Kino Stadium. After playing for head coach Rich Rodriguez in 2012 in a no-huddle, zone read spread option offense mostly out of a shotgun, it’s a nice change of pace, no pun intended. Quinn hikes the ball to his West team quarterbacks, Kansas’ Dayne Crist and Washington State’s Jeff Tuel.
to play for McBride, who most recently was the head coach at Weber State for six years and coached at the UA from 1987-89. “Coach McBride is one of the best offensive line coaches in the country,” Quinn said. “He’s a legend around the state of Utah and around the country. Everyone is just saying it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity.” As the center and fullback, Quinn and Tutogi were contributing blockers to the stellar season running back Ka’Deem Carey had as a UA sophomore. Carey led the nation in rushing, finishing with UA records of 1,929 yards and 23 touchdowns. But Quinn and Tutogi still know they have a lot to prove. “The biggest thing I want to show scouts here is my coachability and how well I take things in,” Quinn said. “I just want to show him my toughness, my versatility,
and I also want to show my football IQ. You know, before the snap, if you have to make a quick adjustment with what the defense runs … I need to show I can pick up things really quick.” Tutogi didn’t become quite as big a part of the offense over the course of his career as he would have liked. In 2012 he had one carry for a loss of a yard, and in his career 38 carries for 121 yards and five touchdowns, plus 27 receptions for 225 yards and two touchdowns. “I just tried to play within the system,” Tutogi said. “Whatever coach [Rodriguez], [former coach Mike] Stoops wanted me to do. I felt like I could’ve done a lot more but we had guys like Ka’Deem and Matt Scott so I did what they told me and hopefully what they had me do, I produced enough to make guys think I

In November, Cordes broke two American records in the 100-meter and 200-meter breaststroke, proving that his national championship freshman year was not a fluke. The Naperville, Ill., native competed in the FINA World Championships in Istanbul, Turkey, in November and brought home two medals, a bronze in the 100-meter breaststroke and a gold in the 4x100-meter medley relay, where his teammates included the likes of Olympians
Matt Grevers, Ryan Lochte and Tom Shields. This is Cordes’ third career Swimmer of the Month award and only the eighth in the history of the Arizona swim program. Cordes is no stranger to success. After his freshman season, he was named Arizona Athletics’ Male Freshman Athlete of the Year and earned his All-American honors after finishing second in the 400-meter medley relay. He also broke a pool and
UA record in the 100-meter breaststroke at the Texas Invite. At the 2012 Olympic Trials, Cordes placed third in the 100-meter breaststroke finals and 12th in the 200-meter breaststroke semifinals. In high school, Cordes earned All-Conference honors in three of his four years and was a state champion in 2008. Cordes was also recruited by California, USC, Auburn and Virginia.

Turner gets the boot … again ZACK ROSENBLATT Arizona Daily Wildcat
Just call it Josiah being Josiah. The Halifax Rainmen of the National Basketball League of Canada announced on Jan. 2 that Josiah Turner had been released from the team. “Josiah just didn’t buy into my system,” Rainmen coach Rob Spon told the Halifax Chronicle Herald. “Josiah wanted to do what Josiah wanted to do.” After short-lived stints with the UA (one season), SMU (never played a game) and a professional team in Hungary (less than

four weeks), Turner finds himself at a crossroads again. Turner averaged 9.8 points and 3.7 assists for the Rainmen, stats only slightly better than when he was with the Wildcats. In a suspension-filled freshman season with Arizona, Turner scored 6.8 points per game with 2.4 assists. Turner’s talent has never been in question, though. Before coming to the UA, Turner was rated the No. 2 point guard in the country by Rivals.com. “I saw right away the talent that kid had,” Spon said.
In high school, Turner played for two teams in his senior year. Shortly after announcing his decision to leave the UA, Turner was charged with a DUI, but SMU head coach Larry Brown still gave him a chance to play for the Mustangs. Before even playing a game, Turner decided he was instead going to turn pro and signed with a professional team in Hungary. Within four weeks, and before playing a regular season game, he asked for his release from his team in Albacomp. About a month later,
Turner signed with the Rainmen. “Josiah’s just young,” Spon said. “I’d call a set during a timeout I want run and he wouldn’t run it. … Josiah just didn’t warm up very well. Coming to games, I see him sitting around, I yell and he just gives me attitude.” Spon told the Chronicle Herald that the breaking point came on Dec. 23 when Turner was left out of the starting lineup, then asked to be removed from the game — twice. “During practice and games, it just wasn’t working,” Spon said.
Wildcat hockey on thin ice after close losses JAMES KELLEY Arizona Daily Wildcat
Wildcat hockey went 3-2 over the winter break, but failed to beat a Division I team. No. 18 Arizona (13-11-0) beat NAU twice in December, 8-1 and 4-3, and then opened the new year with a 5-4 shoot-out win over Williston State. Then last weekend Arizona blew 2-0 leads in back-to-back games against No. 4 Minot State to get swept 6-2 and 5-3. “We were up two-nothing both nights. It was a disappointing weekend for sure,” head coach Sean Hogan said. The Wildcats were swept for the first time since the middle of November and their record drops to 5-8 against top 10 foes, and 0-8 against top four. “We had spurts here,” junior forward Ansel Ivens-Anderson said. “We looked like a great team at times, we looked like the team that beat Oklahoma and Oakland, but at other times we had our little mental breakdowns, and they tend to capitalize on our mistakes.” On Saturday, Arizona jumped out to an early 2-0 lead, including a goal 45 seconds into the game by senior forward Brian Slugocki, but then the
Wildcats gave up five goals in a row. “The two-goal lead is the hardest lead to stop, but you can’t make any excuses,” Ivens-Anderson said. “We had two goals and if we get that third one, it’s a totally different game — but we didn’t.” Panes of glass on the ice broke twice in the same spot, with 14:03 left in the first and then with 2:32 left in the second period, prompting an early start to the second intermission. After the break, Minot State scored a goal with 1:19 left in the second and with 10 seconds left in the period. Though UA was leading 2-0 when the first delay happened, Hogan said the delays weren’t why the young Wildcats lost. “Those things are going to happen,” Hogan said. “We can’t blame it on the glass breaking twice. We got to be mentally tough enough to get through that.” After the game, the captains and Hogan read the team the riot act. “We gave them two goals, literally gave them the puck,” Hogan said. “You can’t do that and win.” Last Friday, Arizona also led 2-0 against Minot State, but the Beavers scored six unanswered goals — and won 6-2 — five goals in a five-minute span.
Last Thursday, the Wildcats beat Williston State 5-4. Arizona trailed for the last five minutes of regulation until Ivens-Anderson scored the gamesaving goal with 48 seconds left on a power play. After a scoreless five minute overtime, Arizona won the three-man shoot out 1-0 after junior goalie Steven Sisler stopped the Tetons three times and freshman forward Bryan Drazner scored the game-winning goal. Sisler made 22 saves in his first game action since Nov. 17. On Dec. 8, Arizona closed out the fall semester with a 4-3 win over Division II Northern Arizona after nearly blowing a 3-0 lead on Teddy Bear Toss Night, where fans threw stuffed animals onto the ice after the first goal. Junior forward Andrew Murmes scored the first and the game-winning goals. “We were able to pull out the win and that’s all that matters,” Murmes said after the game. On Dec. 7, Arizona beat NAU 8-1, behind a hat trick by Slugocki and four points and two goals by IvensAnderson. Arizona returns to action Friday night when it hosts No. 10 Liberty.

can make it at the next level.” CBS Sports has Tutogi rated as the ninth-best fullback in the draft and projects him in the 7th round-undrafted range. Austin is probably the least likely of the three to be drafted come April, as an injury-plagued senior season saw the 6-foot-5, 285-pound defensive end play in just six of 13 games, recording 14 tackles and one for loss. “Me, Taimi and Dom are out here so we’re representing Arizona well,” Quinn said. “I get to put this [UA] helmet on one more time and represent the university. One last chance to represent the University of Arizona.”
Carey nor I will have any comment until the legal proceedings are concluded.” Carey was the nation’s leading rusher in 2012. The sophomore running back finished the season with 1,929 rushing yards and 23 touchdowns, both UA records. Rambow, who is close to four months pregnant, said that the attention being given to the incident has been “overwhelming.” “If this was a situation with any other normal person it wouldn’t be all over the news and in articles popping up everywhere,” Rambow

said. “But I’m keeping strong through it and trying my best to keep my head held high through it all.” Rambow said she has been the target of cyberbullying on Facebook and Twitter since the Dec. 23 incident became public. “For a few weeks threatening things have been said to me or people have been saying horrific things,” Rambow said, “like that I am a gold digger or that I trapped [Carey] and all of these terrible things. A lot of it from people that don’t even know anything about Ka’Deem and my relationship.” Rambow and Carey dated for 15 months, she said. “It was a surprise to us both when I ended up getting pregnant,”

she said. On Dec. 18, Carey tweeted: “After god blessing me with a great season and a great semester of school. Find out he blessed me with a even better gift. I’m goin 2 b a daddy.” Rambow said that people have been creating fake Twitter accounts just to attack her. Her friends and family are “horrified by the things that have been said,” she said. She said she will probably deactivate most of her accounts. Although Rambow refused to discuss specifics pertaining to matters between her and Carey, she said she is reaching out about cyberbullying through media interviews.
