DERRICK DECLARES

By Bryan Roy ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

For all the military-esque salutes Derrick Williams gave after spectacular plays in McKale Center, yesterday it became official that those would mark his final goodbyes to Arizona.

The standout sophomore decided on Wednesday to forego his junior and senior years to enter the NBA Draft with an agent as a projected top-5 pick, despite a looming league lockout.

“I have enjoyed my two years at Arizona both on and off the court,” Williams said in a statement through the school . “I want to thank my teammates, who are like brothers to me, my coaches and all Wildcat Fans for making my experience an unforgettable one.”

Williams will finish his coursework this semester in Tucson and become one of 14 Wildcats to declare early for the NBA Draft since 1984.

“Derrick is a special player and rightfully should be considered to be one of the all-time great Wildcats,” UA head coach Sean Miller said in a statement. “As good of a player as he is, he is an even better person.”

The consensus among fans on Twitter was that Williams’ WILLIAMS, page 3

ASA releases survey on impact of rising costs

By Rebecca Rillos ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

A recent survey conducted by the Arizona Students’ Association revealed that students pay an average of $348 for textbooks per semester.

ASA released the results of the survey today, which polled 303 students from the university.

Twenty-two percent of the students polled said they paid $500 or more for one semester’s worth of textbooks.

“Every college student is familiar with the problem of going into the bookstore and paying hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars every semester to get the textbooks required for their classes,” said Alisha Raccuia, a intern with ASA. “We really wanted to just get an idea of where students were spending their money and what they were spending their money on.”

Students were asked how much they pay out of pocket for all college expenses not covered by scholarships, grants and other forms of aid. About one-fourth reported that more than 75 percent of their college expenses are out of pocket and 60 percent of students polled said they have decided against purchasing a TEXTBOOKS, page 2

Residence hall rates will increase by the smallest percentage in recent years based on a request by the Arizona Board of Regents.

Hall rates increase annually to account for Residence Life debt services and inflation, according to Residence Life Director Jim Van Arsdel. Residence hall rates have risen an average of 7.15 percent each year since the 2004 to 2005 school year, according to proposals submitted to the Arizona Board of Regents.

The original proposal submitted

by Residence Life would have increased undergraduate residence hall rates an average of 7.08 percent

and all campus halls an average of 5.47 percent for next year. Regents rejected the proposal and later approved raising rates 3.5 percent across the board at their meeting last week.

The two new halls set to open in the fall will cost residents $7,410 for the year. Cost for the next tier of residence halls is set at $6,717, tier-three halls will cost $5,892 and tier-four halls will cost $5,320 under the approved proposal.

Rate increases from the past several years have helped generate revenue to pay for the two new residence halls under construction. The buildings will increase Residence

He explained that the Tech Games were particularly “awesome” for the UA teams because they did not make any mistakes resulting in point deductions during any of the events.

“This was actually the reason why we won,” he said.

His teammate, management information systems senior Jesse Zhang, said that the hardest part about designing and building a PC was trying to figure out what the “clients” wanted and explaining important factors to them such as cost.

Fritze talks guns, tuition

By Bethany Barnes Arizona Daily Wildcat ASUA President Emily Fritze went over some of the controversial topics circulating campus at the Wednesday ASUA meeting.

Fritze said she thought the Associated Students of the University of Arizona’s stance on UA tuition and fees had been considered by the Arizona Board of Regents. The board members approved increases for both tuition and fees during their meeting April 7 and 8.

She said ASUA had a victory in a “glass half full sense” because the initial proposal was rejected, but she said it was unfortunate that the regents did not go through mandatory fees individually.

“This was the most heated conversation at an actual public meeting that I’ve seen,” Fritze said.

She also spoke about the bill approved by the Arizona House of Representatives last Thursday that would allow firearms to be carried in certain areas on campus. The bill is awaiting final approval from Gov. Jan Brewer.

“At this point, anybody who feels the need to do so, I encourage you to contact the governor ’s office,” Fritze said. “We will just have to wait and see what happens.”

Fritze noted that the governor has received ASUA’s resolution of opposition.

She also reminded the senate that students will campaign once again for ASUA president next week. Fritze said a public forum is in the works for April 19. The presidential election results and, “cross my fingers, a new president” will be announced April 21.

HALLS continued from page 1 Life debt services $12 million a year, according to Van Arsdel.

“Those are really expensive projects,” Van Arsdel said. “We have to figure out a way of generating money to pay that off.”

Under the original proposal, 2.2 percent of revenue from increases would have funded debt services.

The other 3.3 percent would have been used for increased operating expenses and improvements such as installing security cameras around residence halls, according to Vice President of Student Affairs Melissa Vito.

The regents cited the increases as being too high considering the state of the economy. Residence Life representatives reconfigured the proposal overnight to propose the 3.5 percent increase.

The reduction in approved increases will result in $920,000 less funding for these improvements, Vito said. Maintenance may be deferred and contribute to rate increases in the future.

“The needs won’t go away,”

TEXTBOOKS continued from page 1 textbook because it was too expensive.

According to an ASA press release, the government accounting office reported that college textbook prices have increased at twice the rate of inflation, and that the prices have followed close behind increases in tuition.

The average textbook costs $52.36 new, according to the National

she said.

Residence Life reviews its budget each year and projects future needs when setting rates, according to Van Arsdel. Residence Life is financially sustained on rent and does not receive funding from tuition, student fees or the state.

“We are business-like in that sense,” he said.

Rates are based on this need rather than a direct comparison to the off-campus market, according to Van Arsdel. He said most people who live in residence halls are freshmen committed to living on campus.

“The typical student isn’t choosing between a residence hall or the community,” Van Arsdel said.

“The choice the person is making is living in a residence hall at the UA or a residence hall on another campus.”

Rachel Held, a junior studying psychology and mathematics, said she lived on campus her freshman year and did not consider other options.

“I knew I wanted to live on campus for my first year to be there for everything,” she said.

Held said she moved off campus the following year for more personal space and not because of cost increases.

“Looking back on it, living off campus is probably more cost effective for me,” she said. “But even with cost increases, if I could go back and do it over I would live on campus again my freshman year.”

On-campus housing continues to reach capacity as costs increase, Vito said. Financial aid awarded to students uses current residence hall rates in the estimate of the cost of living.

“Demand has grown every year or has been stable,” Vito said. “It has not declined.”

Increases in rates will continue as inflation raises operational costs, Van Arsdel said. He said he does not foresee massive construction after the completion of the new halls, which may limit increases funding debt services.

“What we try to do with our analysis is always start with the basic question, ‘Do we need more money?’” Van Arsdel said. “If we don’t, we have no justification for an increase.”

Association of College Stores’ 2005 College Store Industry Financial Report.

Textbooks that include CDROMs, pass codes and e-books inflate the costs of books, the press release stated.

Katy Nail, an ASA intern and sophomore studying English and political science, said she has spent more than $1,000 on textbooks during her two years at the UA. She recently switched to an Amazon Kindle, which she said makes books more affordable for

her but it is not always an option for every class. Only 2 percent of the students polled reported that using an e-reader, such as an Apple iPad or Kindle, is the best way to save money on books.

“While I’ve used innovation methods to save money, not everyone is able to do this,” Nail said. “We would like to continue to work with the bookstore and the university to save students more money and make education more accessible and affordable.”

“We wanted to tie it into the company’s overall demand to create new ideas, take risks, and think outside of the box,” said Thompson, a marketing and entrepreneurship senior.

Thompson added that his biggest challenge in creating a theme was that it was “very ambiguous” because he was unsure of what exactly the judges wanted.

The judges included a panel of technology firm executives, engineers and technical experts.

Students competed in nine different games and the event also included a sponsor showcase and networking event to help students connect with prospective employers.

Photography center gets $3.5 million gift

By John Kuells Arizona Daily Wildcat What would you do with $3.5 million?

The UA’s Creative Center of Photography has a few plans, after Arthur J. Bell bestowed this large sum upon the center as part of his final estate.

Bell worked as a professor at Columbia College in Chicago and had no connection to the UA before leaving this large estate with the center, which received the money in December.

Bell, a photographer himself who studied under the renowned photographers Aaron Siskind and Harry Callahan, also donated his own archive that is now on display in the center.

“He wanted to leave his photographs and his estate because he recognized that the center was an internationally known archive of American photographers,” said Katharine Martinez, director of the Center for Creative Photography.

The center will use the donation to help fund its conservation efforts. The center’s conservation lab aims to assess different ways to maintain its many photograph archives, and the money will go to creating a full-time job for a senior photograph conservator. The center has had no one to fill that challenging job until now.

Martinez said the job would likely be filled

by spring 2012, since becoming conservator requires extensive training in chemistry and art history to accurately assess collections.

“Someone like that is really necessary to get this program off the ground,” Martinez said.

Any leftover money will go toward other conservation efforts, including additional staffing, supplies and extensive equipment such as microscopes. “(We) thought Arthur would be happy knowing he was, in effect, taking care of his teachers and other photographers,” Martinez said.

Martinez spent 11 years as director for the Fine Arts Library at Harvard University and other acclaimed photography centers, including the Smithsonian Institution and Stanford and Columbia universities.

However, she said she decided to work here because the institution is “extraordinary and internationally known,” whose unique focus may have been the reason for Bell’s generous donation.

“We’re the only place that has as its primary function acquiring archives of photographers,” Martinez said.

Martinez ranked the Creative Center of Photography as one of the nation’s best and said its mission is to support learning and to serve as a research resource for all. This will be a little easier with the help of Bell’s $3.5 million estate.

For all the military-esque salutes Derrick Williams gave after spectacular plays in McKale Center, yesterday it became official that those would mark his final goodbyes to Arizona.

The standout sophomore decided on Wednesday to forego his junior and senior years to enter the NBA Draft with an agent as a projected top-5 pick, despite a looming league lockout.

“I have enjoyed my two years at Arizona both on and off the court,” Williams said in a statement through the school. “I want to thank my teammates, who are like brothers to me, my coaches and all Wildcat Fans for making my experience an unforgettable one.”

Williams will finish his coursework this semester in Tucson and become one of 14 Wildcats to declare early for the NBA Draft since 1984.

“Derrick is a special player and rightfully should be considered to be one of the all-time great Wildcats,” UA head coach Sean Miller said in a statement. “As

good of a player as he is, he is an even better person.”

The consensus among fans on Twitter was that Williams’ move was “smart, understandable and bittersweet” since his stock can’t rise much higher than what’s projected: the Pacific 10 Conference Player of the Year could be the top overall pick this summer.

While he won’t be made available to the media until early next week, fans showered Williams — one of the only college basketball players with a verified Twitter account — with congratulations and well wishes through social media.

When asked what he’ll most be remembered for during his two seasons at Arizona, fans noted: 1. Dominating Duke in the Sweet 16. Between his tomahawk dunk over Kyle Singler and 25-point first-half performance, Williams earned national recognition in Arizona’s signature win to cap off a 30-win season.

2. “The Block” against Washington. Williams himself said it was one of the best moments of his career in McKale’s raucous

3

“White Out” atmosphere on ESPN. 3. More clutch tournament performances: Whether it was his drive against Memphis on the last possessions — he finished an And-1 to keep Arizona from going out in the second round — or his lockdown defense against Texas on the last possession to advance to the Sweet 16, Williams could not have been more clutch when it mattered most this season.

Williams took his time to decide and made a drama-free announcement through the university yesterday afternoon.

The 6-foot-8 sophomore led the Wildcats with 19.5 points and 8.3 rebounds per game last season, with 13 double-doubles.

Solomon Hill said on Twitter: “I just bought a CAVS, WOLVES, GOLDEN STATE, & WIZARDS Williams 23 jersey. #swagswag!”

Added teammate Kevin Parrom: “Congrats to the best wildcat to date..

Derrick Williams ! Have fun guarding Boozer ... haha Luv Ya Son.” The Draft is scheduled for June 23 at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J.

Arizona Daily Wildcat

t has been a little more than three months since the horrific events of Jan. 8, when a shooting at a “Congress on Your Corner” gathering left six dead and dozens wounded, including beloved Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

And while the events of that day must still be terribly sharp in the minds of the victims and their loved ones, they seem to be rapidly fading from Tucson’s collective consciousness. Updates on the shooting victims and the trial of the alleged shooter, Jared Loughner, pepper local media occasionally, a far cry from the wall-to-wall coverage that dominated front pages for days after the shooting. Tucson seems to be moving on and, hopefully, gradually healing.

But one narrative thread in the ongoing story continues to capture the media and public’s imagination: Giffords’ remarkable recovery.

In a time when the news cycle seems perpetually dreary, reports of Giffords’ progress, which have been overwhelmingly positive almost from the get-go, give everyone who follows them something to cheer about. She has brave, talented doctors, a loving family, a dedicated staff and, as every Southern Arizonan knows, an indomitable spirit. And she’s getting better every day. It’s just the story we all need to get through the bad news pouring in from all other fronts.

But, as a recent story in Newsweek suggested, media coverage of Giffords’ recovery may be misleading the public about her future in the public sphere.

“I can understand how somebody listening to us might say they expected her to show up and be normal,” Dr. Dong Kim, one of the neurosurgeons who has worked with Giffords, told Newsweek. But, he cautioned, “’leaps and bounds’ means much faster recovery than the average patient from a similar type of thing.”

The doctors interviewed for the Newsweek article all stressed that those following Giffords’ progress from afar must remember the severity of the injuries Giffords sustained, and how profoundly such injuries might continue to affect her throughout her life.

Many spoke about a “new normal” — the goal doctors set for their brain-damaged patients. Giffords’ new normal might not look anything like her old one, and her supporters need to be prepared to embrace whatever a new normal means.

Rather than focus on the reality of recovery from a severe head injury, much of the media and the political world has turned its attention to Giffords’ future in politics. Although she has no idea, she’s widely considered the Democratic frontrunner for Jon Kyl’s soon-to-bevacant Senate seat. Speculation about when she’ll be well enough to return to politics has seemed endless, and has come from Giffords’ own staff as well as from the media. Fellow Democratic politicians spoke of Giffords as a “formidable” and even “unbeatable” Senate candidate in the Newsweek story.

But we, the public and Giffords’ wellwishers, must leave the politicking up to the politicians and strategists. It’s tempting, especially for Arizona Democrats, to be excited for a Giffords Senate run. It’s understandable to hope she’ll someday be able to return to politics.

But if she is either unable or unwilling to make that transition, Giffords still deserves unswerving support. Focusing on her political future detracts from the purely human miracle of her recovery.

It has only been three months. And while Giffords has made wonderful progress, it’s important for the media to reign in its endless speculation and focus on just that: her progress. Not as a congresswoman or a potential senator, not as a pawn in Arizona’s political game, but as a person, a victim of violence and a fierce fighter. Whether Giffords runs for Kyl’s seat or slips quietly out of public life, she deserves the same amount of compassion and love.

For all I care, Giffords can spend the rest of her life underwater basket weaving, if that’s what she and her family decide is right for her. I’d be proud to call her my senator, but I’m equally proud just knowing she’s still out there, fighting bravely, no matter what her future holds.

Campus guns bill upholds people’s rights

I understand how an editorial such as this (“Campus gun bill aims for safety, misses target” April 12 issue) can get drafted, as gun legislation is an emotional and often polarizing issue. As I see it, this editorial is full of emotion and devoid of sound reason.

And I disagree with nearly every idea presented within it.

First, and most importantly, where did you get the idea that the second amendment of the Constitution was included to keep an armed populous available for defense against British troops? I hope this is not being taught in schools, because it is completely false! I do not claim to be an expert on our nation’s Constitution, but I am pretty sure that the second amendment exists primarily to ensure the capability of the people to execute an armed revolt of a corrupt government. Our government.

“Let’s start arming priests and rabbis.”

This bill arms no one. It simply legally restores the right of the individual to carry a concealed firearm on campus. If this bill passes, you can still choose not to carry a firearm. I don’t know you but, based solely on the content of the editorial, I think it best that you choose not to arm yourself.

Next, in response to the paragraph “How dare legislators pass a law because

they believe it best, without listening to the people who are most affected by it?” I understand that employees of all three universities in this state drafted letters to the legislature that expressed concerns with the concealed carry bill. I suspect that these concerns were given due consideration; however, in this case I think that cooler heads prevailed, and the rights of individuals to defend themselves from violent crime was restored. I would argue the opposite: “How dare legislators pass a law that rescinds the rights of individuals to bear arms?”

“When someone walks down the UA Mall with a gun on his hip … ” If the gun is properly concealed, then you will not know who is carrying. And there will be no visible reason to get concerned, upset or afraid that someone you do not know is carrying a firearm. Besides, it is really not your business anyway.

Lastly, there is one sentence I do agree with — “That isn’t real life.” Sadly, if you want to know what real life is, see the map of campus shootings on page 2 of the April 12 Daily Wildcat. I think that this is what the state legislators had in mind when the bill was passed.

UA artist’s work draws attention to environment

I am writing in response to the article in the Daily Wildcat (“Campus Creatives: Andrea Jensen” April 13) about the Master of Fine Arts candidate Andrea Jensen and her outstanding public installation that addresses environmental issues present in today’s society. I think that Jensen’s billboard does a great job of illustrating how our environment is being effected by mass consumerism. The billboard is also a response to the BP oil spill of 2010, which had a very negative impact on our society and its environment. Not only did it affect the wildlife of the Gulf of Mexico, but also the fishermen that make a living from the fish they catch. Jensen’s billboard does a phenomenal job of displaying the oil spill in an artistic way and really puts it in perspective. I was driving on Alvernon Way over the weekend and this stunning billboard really made me stop and think about how our everyday lives make a significant impact on Earth and its environment. Andrea Jensen did a great job of addressing pressing environmental issues in a way that catches your eye and makes you stop and wonder what you can do to change how people impact Earth.

You should know, though, that I am not as heinous as it seems, or maybe I should say that I am not always as heinous as it seems. Yes, I have the tendency to be cynical, bitter and judgmental, but that doesn’t mean I am destined to be a crazy, crotchety cat woman.

Beneath my sarcasm and snarky remarks, I am a happy person just like you. So rather than sipping on my regular haterade this week, I have decided to channel my favorite blog, The Rockstar Diaries, and share 10 things that make me truly happy.

Mal’s happy list

1. Bike rides in the rain 2. French fries — you know when you were little and someone would say “I love insert inanimate object” and you replied with, “then why don’t you marry it?” Well, let it be known that if I could marry French fries, I would.

3. Skyping with friends in faraway lands … or as close as California 4. Pretending I am the next Martha Stewart with my party planning and craftiness 5. Love — stories, letters, songs. I love love 6. Sunday Funday BBQs with good beer and even better friends 7. “Winning, duh.”

8. Knowing that the best is yet to come 9. My sisters. They may not be as smart as your siblings (I am not lying when I say they thought that “shrill” is what vegetables do when they get old), but they are infinitely cooler than yours 10. Making up songs about my daily life/

activities to the tune of “Pants on the Ground” Even more important to me than my own happiness, is the happiness of those around me. To prove it, I interviewed a few of everyone’s favorite Wildcats to see what puts a smile on their faces. Who knew I had the capacity to be happy and nice in one week?

Anyway, here’s what they had to say:

UA football quarterback Nick Foles’ happy list 1. My faith in God 2. Going to bible study with my teammates 3. My family and friends 4. Playing a variety of sports 5. Singing in the shower 6. Watching movies 7. Being at the beach so I can boogie board 8. Playing with my dogs 9. Mentoring kids 10. Dancing at weddings

ASUA President Emily Fritze’s happy list

1. Karaoke. Anywhere. Anytime.

2. The first cup of coffee in the morning. The last cup of coffee in the evening 3. Whistling 4. Driving with the windows down, wind blowing, music blaring 5. Belly laughs 6. Reading. Not for class. Just for fun.

(Currently David Brooks’ “The Social Animal”) 7. The UA Mall at dusk, students sprawled out on the grass with Frisbees and books in hand

8. My snooze button 9. Uninhibited, limb sprawling dancing 10. Genuine people with high hopes and big ideas

UA softball center fielder Lauren Schutzler’s happy list

1. Starbucks, and the smell of coffee in the morning 2. My bulldog, Bruno, and his adorable wrinkles 3. Laughing at people who ask a question about something the professor just covered 4. Dancing really ridiculously to make my boyfriend as uncomfortable as possible 5. Food, food and more food (especially fast Mexican food at 2:30 a.m.)

6. King Curtis from “Wife Swap” and his famous line, “Bacon is good for me!”

7. Working out and being sweaty. Weird, I know, but how can you not be happy about that?

8. “Teen Mom” 1 and 2, “Real Housewives,” “Pretty Little Liars” and “Make it or Break It,” especially while lying in bed 9. The feeling of being done with a huge test you just spent a week studying for, and knowing you’re going out this weekend, guilt free 10. “I like turtles.”

No matter how busy or stressed you might be, take time out of your day to acknowledge what makes you happy. If nothing else, you should be happy you are not an ASU Sun Devil. Am I right?

‘Shadow’ zips off with phone

A girl’s cell phone was stolen at the Spring Fling carnival on April 8 after giving her phone to a stranger.

A University of Arizona Police Department officer working the fair met with the 16-year-old girl about the missing phone.

The girl said that while in line for the Zipper ride, she gave her blue Cricket cell phone to a man who called himself “Shadow.� “Shadow,� who was wearing all black, promised the girl that he would hold on to her phone until she was off the ride.

When the ride was over, “Shadow� was nowhere to be found, so the girl contacted UAPD. UAPD performed a search of the carnival but could not locate “Shadow�.

UA fights five-foot fence fetish

For the second time this semester, holes were cut in the fence of the University of Arizona Rincon Vista Sports Complex.

The damage was reported to UAPD on April 11 at 1:05 p.m.

A UAPD officer responded to the location and made contact with a UA employee who showed the officer the two holes in the southwest corner of the fence.

Each opening was about 5 feet in length, one of them on Winsett Street, and one on Plumer Avenue.

It is still unknown when the damage occurred, but to have been during the weekend of April 8.

UA facilities management personnel attached wire clips to the fence to temporarily close the holes until full repairs could be made.

When taking pictures of the damages, the officer found footprints next to the cut section of the fence.

The photos were placed into UAPD property as evidence.

Good Samaritan gets phone stolen

A UA student’s cell phone was stolen in the Manuel T. Pacheco Integrated Learning Center by a man he had lent his phone to on April 8.

An unknown man approached the student in the ILC and asked to borrow his cell phone.

Although the student said that he thought the man to be homeless, he allowed him to use his cell phone because he had seen the man several times in the ILC before.

Within a few minutes, the student could no longer see him in or around the ILC. He began to look for the man but, after an hour of searching, called UAPD to report the theft.

The student told officers that he wishes to press charges if the suspect is apprehended.

Police Beat is compiled from official University of Arizona Police Department reports. A complete list of UAPD activity can be found at www.uapd.arizona.edu.

ON THE SPOT B. Spears fan wants magic carpet ride

RECYCLE

WORTH NOTING

Please recycle your copy of the Arizona Daily Wildcat.

Tierney Shea UA Pomline

How does it feel to be known as a Pommie?

Personally, I get offended by the term “Pommie.” It’s a little embarrassing sometimes. But I love performing for UA, and I love being on the Pomline. I just don’t like the term “Pommie.”

Who do you think is more powerful, J.Lo or B. Spears, these days?

I personally like B. Spears better.

Would you ever experiment with someone of the same sex?

Sketch. Like a little kiss here or there? But nothing more than that, no.

Do you feel like a UA celebrity with the attention the Pomline brings?

Actually, it’s kind of funny: when I walk around campus no cares who I am. But on Saturdays, game days, people ask to take pictures with me and it’s weird, like old men. Just when I put that uniform on, people really care.

Have you ever had a crush on a cartoon character?

Aladdin.

Turned on by the magic carpet?

I just want him to whisk me through the sky.

What do you want for your next birthday?

I need the iPhone 5, and world peace.

HOROSCOPES

Taurus (April 20 - May 20) — Today is a 7 — The next two days bring romantic activity. Receive a new challenge from a loved one, then listen to your heart and accept or decline. Go for substance over symbolism.

Man without legs hopes to inspire students as physical education teacher There are certain teachers whose influence can affect students for the rest of their lives, whose names are never forgotten. Doug Forbis hopes to become one of those — and it’s not just because he doesn’t have any legs.

The 24-year-old Spartanburg, S.C., man is finishing up his first year of a two-year graduate education program at Converse College. He plans to teach physical education to kids with special needs.

Rather than spending his youth as an observer, he joined swimming and basketball leagues for disabled kids.

“It was a big deal to meet others going through the same issues. It gave me a safe zone each week going to practice,” he said.

Now he hopes to offer that safe zone for those in need at a local self-

“It’s so rare for kids with special needs to have a teacher with special needs — that almost never happens,” he said. “I think it would help a lot for these special need kids to say, ‘Look, Mr. Forbis is a teacher, I can do that, too. He lives by himself, gets around town, goes shopping, I can do that, too.’ A lot of kids don’t know that’s an option.

They just depend on the system their whole lives.”

Life after Williams

A look at what Arizona’s rotation might look like in 2011-12

By Kevin Zimmerman ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Derrick Williams is officially off to the NBA, and by hiring an agent, his decision guarantees the Arizona Wildcats basketball team will need to fill his spot in the starting line-up by committee.

His departure brings the Wildcats’ roster to 14, meaning they are a couple spots over the allowed 12 scholarships.

With incoming freshmen in guards Josiah Turner and Nick Johnson along with forwards Sidiki Johnson and Angelo Chol looking to make an immediate impact, here are some scenarios to ponder.

How do opposing defenses adapt, and how does it affect Arizona?

This could be the biggest ad-

Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat

While sophomore forward Derrick Williams says goodbye, head coach Sean Miller will need to figure out who he will turn to as his leading scorer. A solid nucleus of returning players as well as a highly touted recruiting class will give Miller options in his third year.

justment to losing Williams.

Comfortable with defenses collapsing on the forward, Arizona will likely react by becoming more of a drive-andkick team.

With an expected guard-heavy rotation next year, head coach Sean Miller said in his seasonending press conference that “what worked last year isn’t going to work this year.”

That hints that Arizona could run out three guards at a time.

Lanes will be more open, and defenses will be more man-toman against the Wildcats, so don’t expect Arizona to shoot as well from the 3-point arc as they did when sinking guards would leave Fogg or Parrom to help on Williams.

But on the bright side, that gives Arizona a spread-out, ballhandler heavy offense — think the Sweet 16 Duke game, where Williams even spent most of his time on the perimeter.

This will play to the Wildcats’ advantage, with ultra-athletic Nick Johnson likely to see some time and fellow freshman Turner doing what he does best, penetrating for the score or finding teammates.

In the end, this will be a huge

adjustment for Arizona strategically, and expect a period for them to feel it out. Ultimately, Miller has recruited the athletes to make the transition less harsh.

Who patrols the paint?

Losing Williams hurts from a size perspective.

Miller will rely heavily upon Jesse Perry, who will be a senior in his second year at Arizona, but the head coach said Perry won’t be playing at the 200-210 pounds he did this season.

To finish the season strongly, Perry earned honors in the AllRegional team in Anaheim, Calif., averaging 9.5 points and 6.5 rebounds in two games against Duke and UConn.

Along with Perry, the development of center Kyryl Natyazhko becomes crucial in providing a solid defensive presence inside. He’ll have help with rugged Sidiki Johnson and possibly a lanky shot-blocker in Chol, though Chol himself could struggle early on with his slight, 210-pound frame.

Either way it’s sliced, players will need to step up in the rebounding department to replace Williams.

@wildcathoops Derrick Williams leaving for the NBA Draft is… @JasonAClairmont: a smart move @NeemaAzim: inevitable. @UofAlec: good for him, bad for college highlights @Jnmurray: a smart idea. can not get his stock any higher @ross_helland: smart if there isn’t a lockout; Missing out on a National Championship possibility by leaving @ZonaRube: as sad as the day Sean Elliot graduated. @benm0rse: Bittersweet. @Guert: I just cut off a limb but other than that, yeah I’m fine. We’re fine. Everything’s fine here. How are you? @arizcats5: Soul crushing

’Cats struggling at the plate Lack of timely hitting may doom Arizona when it faces stronger teams

By Tyler Johnson ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Arizona softball team won its weekend series at Oregon State and now sits in sole possession of first in the Pacific 10 Conference .

However, there was plenty to be concerned about in Corvallis .

Arizona left a total of 35 runners on base in its three-game series against the Beavers. The Wildcats also saw very little production out of what is supposed to be the strongest part of their lineup.

Stacie Chambers, Lini Koria and Kristen Arriola were a combined 5-for-28 against Oregon State. The four, five, six trio also managed to record just three RBIs for the weekend , which is well below the 107 they recorded in the team’s first 38 games.

Head coach Mike Candrea says the lack of production out of this spot hurts the whole team’s offense.

“Obviously when it comes to offensive production,” he says, “there’s a purpose for everyone, and those four, five and six hitters are the ones who are driving in runs normally. So when it happens, it looks easy and we put a lot of runs up, and when it doesn’t we leave a lot of runners on base.”

The hitting woes did not end with the team’s three primary hitters. Alex Lavine and Baillie Kirker, who have struggled for

Icecat players move to oust coach

By Mike Schmitz ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Who will be the leading scorer?

The Wildcats have 19.5 points per game to replace, and don’t expect it to be done by any way other than committee.

To take an obvious approach, guard Kyle Fogg will be a senior and has shown the ability to put up points in the past. But don’t expect him to deviate much from this year’s Fogg, a savvy passer who put most of his energy into locking down opposing 2-guards.

That leaves room for forwards Solomon Hill and Kevin Parrom — if he’s healthy — taking on more aggressive roles. Each has the skill-set and capability to be the team’s leading scorer, Hill especially.

He showed flashes of his aggressiveness in the postseason by being a strong one-on-one player, dropping 16 points on Texas’s Jordan Hamilton, and is the closest of any of the returners to having NBA-level athleticism and talent.

The other option to lead Arizona in scoring would be guard Momo Jones, the secondleading scorer for the Wildcats in 2010-11 by averaging 9.7 points per game. But barring any transfers, Jones will be splitting time with back-up Jordin Mayes and Turner at point guard, meaning the top scorer is unlikely to come from the point guard slot.

MLB

most of the season, continued to do so against Oregon State.

The pair recorded just two hits on 17 at-bats and failed to drive in a single run . Kirker is now hitting a dismal .194 on the season with just 14 RBIs .

The bright side of five of the hitters having off weekends was that the Wildcats’ talented roster was able to pick up the slack and win the series.

Junior Karissa Buchanan was 6-10 on the weekend, and senior Lauren Schutzler was 5-12 with three of the team’s 11 runs .

Senior catcher Stacie Chambers, who hit 2-9 on the weekend, does not see the trend continuing for the Wildcats’ hitters.

“I think it was just a bad coincidence,” she said. “We hit well, and we will score runs.”

Arizona will have to improve their hitting quickly, as they face consecutive series against Washington and ASU. Both teams are currently just one game behind the Wildcats for first place in the Pac-10 , and ASU was ranked No. 1 in the nation a week ago.

Both teams present difficult challenges if Arizona fails to get production from the best power hitters in its lineup.

Washington and ASU are the top two teams in the country in average runs per game with 8.52 and 8.44 , respectively. If these teams continue to produce against the Wildcats, 11 runs may not be enough to win a game, let alone a series.

Hallie Bolonkin/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Catcher Stacie Chambers entered the season as one of the most fearsome offensive threats in the NCAA, but after she and fellow power hitters went just 5-for-28 last weekend the Wildcat offense has cause for concern. Arizona hosts Washington this weekend.

The Arizona club hockey team has been the model of consistency in Tucson since 1979, as the Icecats have played the last 32 seasons under the program’s pioneer and head coach Leo Golembiewski.

But after a pair of underwhelming seasons and continuous discontent with the organizational structure of the team, the Icecats are in the process of removing Golembiewski and turning toward a more traditional club setting.

The Arizona Daily Star originally reported the news late Tuesday night, and several current and former players have confirmed the news since then.

Six different current players declined to comment further until everything becomes official, which is expected in the next few days.

Neither Golembiewski nor associate coach Dave Dougall could be reached by phone on Wednesday night, and Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs, Frank Farias, was also unavailable for comment.

But it appears Golembiewski, who won 634 games as head coach and still owns the trademark on the Icecats name, is on his way out, and the players will finally have the control they’ve been seeking.

“I’m excited for these guys, just for the fact that I think it’s going to become a much more legitimate hockey program,” said former Icecat and captain Zach Cherney, who played from 2006-2010. “It’s going to be run the right way, and it’s going to be run the way that they want it.

“If the decision wasn’t completely unanimous, it was a far majority that wanted a change to get the program in their hands, not in the hands of a program that they couldn’t really relate to anymore,” added Cherney, whose younger brother Spencer is still an Icecat.

Golembiewski “lost the locker room,” according to Cherney, who said it became the head coach “versus the team.”

It got so bad that former Icecat and captain Austin Capobianco said the first two lines would have to handle substitutions on their own. Capobianco referred to it as “self-government.”

The longtime head coach was responsible for landing corporate sponsors, cutting a deal with the Tucson Convention Center and making ice hockey in Tucson an entertaining and profitable business.

But despite his success in the past that included a national championship in 1985, Golembiewski could no longer identify with this group of 18- to 23-year-olds. According to Capobianco, he lacked hockey knowledge, and that, coupled with his need for total control, led to a split locker room.

“He would divide the locker room so much. I would say 98 to 100 percent of every team realized how crazy this guy was,” Capobianco said. “We figured that if we all avoided him and hung out together, he would just quit.”

Capobianco said the team thought about trying to get Golembiewski fired at times, but due to the current structure, there was really nothing they could do.

He built the program and is the reason for decades of success and excitement, but it appears Golembiewski’s departure will be announced in the coming days, and the Icecat players will have control of a program that’s been in the head coach’s grasp for 32 years.

The players are taking on a “players elect process,” according to Capobianco, who said he could be one of many candidates for the job. Former Icecat hall of famer, assistant coach and current ASU coach Jeremy Goltz is also rumored to be in the running.

It remains to be seen what direction the Icecats will take and whether or not Golembiewski is even on his way out. But all signs are pointing to a major change in Arizona club hockey, and it should come to light sooner rather than later.
