New solar energizes UA In partnership with E.ON and TEP, the new Tech Park solar panels will add 2 megawatts to the 25-megawatt array in addition to a storage system

BY EDDIE CELAYA @DailyWildcat

The future, much like the Tucson summer sun, is bright for the UA Tech Park. Tucson Electric Power, in collaboration with E.ON Climate and Renewables North America and Landis +Gyr, has a new solar energy storage solution located at the park — one that will not only power homes but also boost the park’s reputation as a solar hot spot.

The latest addition to the UA Tech Park’s Solar Zone, the Iron Horse Energy Storage and Solar Project, contains a new solar panel array and a battery storage system that will serve both practical and investigatory

purposes.

TEP spokesman Joe Barrios said the new solarpanel array, constructed

by E.ON, will be capable of generating up to 2 megawatts of energy. The combined total generated by the various solar-panel arrays in the Solar Zone is about 25 megawatts.

Perhaps more crucial, though, is the storage system and its capability.

Barrios said it can store 10 megawatts of energy.

“Renewable energy storage offers great promise,” he said. “[When] integrating renewables into the grid, the challenge presented is production variability.”

In other words, the quality of solar energy fluctuates depending on the time of day, the season

and the weather.

The UA Tech Park is a massive 225-acre multi-purpose facility on South Rita Road and is home to multiple solarpanel arrays owned by different companies. Its mission, according to its website, is to “contribute to the discovery and development of new technologies.”

TEP, which owns or has an agreement with seven of the 10 sites featuring solar arrays in the park’s Solar Zone, then sells that energy to customers.

In a press release, Landis + Gyr, the maker of the storage system, claims the 10-megawatt containerized lithiumion energy system will

Regent Greg Patterson resigned amidst a flurry of misfortunes concerning an outburst criticizing a state legislator’s Western-wear Monday, June 19.

“It’s been a hectic weekend, and the past 24 hours,” said Vianney Careaga, the student regent representing UA. The story broke when the Arizona Republic obtained a secret recording, made

by Patterson, of a meeting between himself and Rep. Mark Finchem, R-Oro Valley.

Regents President Eileen Klein and Rep. Jill Norgaard, R-Maricopa, also attended the meeting.

During the February meeting, Patterson grew frustrated with Finchem and Norgaard over a bill that would have created separate boards for each of the public Arizona universities to provide local oversight in addition to the Arizona Board of Regents.

The meeting culminated in a “caffeineinduced rage,” as Patterson described it, in a June 2 post on his blog. After nearly a half hour of civil discussion, he criticized Finchem’s “Sunday go-to-meeting” tie and mustache saying, “I would start by saying the costume doesn’t work. You know, trim that down, buy a suit. Decide where you want to be, but this isn’t it,” as can be heard in a portion of the recording released by The Republic.

Patterson then left the meeting and discussion continued among the remaining members.

“As far as I’m concerned, the issue with Mr. Patterson was dead a long time ago,” Finchem said. “The things that have followed out after it, frankly, are none of my concern.”

Klein told The Republic that Rep. Finchem has always been “a complete gentleman, even in that moment.”

Patterson apologized in the blog post, which has since been deleted, following The Republic’s record request that provided the recording.

“I was angry and unprofessional,” he wrote. “So, Mr. Finchem, I apologize for the harshness and unprofessionalism of my tone. It’s a real apology. I’m not ‘sorry that you were offended’. Yada yada. I’m sorry for the offensive tone that I used.”

In his resignation letter, Patterson

Ng excels between pipettes and pirouettes

BY TORI TOM @DailyWildcat

For Natasha Ng, the road to becoming a Fulbright Scholar was tough, but worthwhile.

Last December, Ng completed her UA undergraduate degree in molecular and cellular biology with a 3.8 GPA. “That was with a lot of suffering,” she laughed. “I spent a lot of nights crying in the library.”

Those harsh study hours of dedication and laborious work paid off when Ng was accepted as a Fulbright Scholar in March.

The program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, has awarded around 8,000 grants annually since its establishment in 1946, according to the Fulbright website. Ng, 22, is one of approximately 1,600 American scholars selected by the Foreign Scholarship Board.

She said the “rigorous” application process required her to write a personal statement, grant statement and attend an in-person interview.

“I tried not to think about the statistics too much,” she said. “I felt like I was a good fit for what the program was looking for.”

As a teaching assistant for several UA biology courses, Ng discovered a passion for teaching.

Nick Roalofs was one of the students Ng taught as a preceptor for Introduction to Biology two years ago.

According to Roalofs, their friendship evolved around the change they both wish to see within the world.

“We talked about being a more compassionate person and putting

our hearts and souls into making the world a better place,” Roalofs said. “We are each other’s yin and yang. When Natasha is down I lift her up; when I’m down she lifts me up.”

In October of 2016, she applied to the Fulbright Scholarship Program in Poland at the University of Opole, intending to become an English teaching assistant.

“I want to see how education and healthcare systems can be different,” Ng said. “I think interacting with people who are different from me will be a

valuable experience.”

After enrolling into an Introduction to Biology course freshman year, Ng knew she wanted to pursue a medical profession. As a future medical doctor, Ng wants to develop a diversified perspective.

“A lot of patients will come from different backgrounds and will have different life experiences,” she said. “I think it’s good to try to learn how to interact with those who are different.”

When Ng returns to the U.S. in June 2018, she plans on attending medical school in either New York

or Boston to pursue a career in dermatology, while also dancing for the National Basketball Association.

“I think dancing for the NBA is actually tougher to get into than medical school,” she said.

Following preliminary auditions, contenders are subject to several unrelenting rounds of cuts. Despite all odds, Ng is willing to persist toward her NBA dancing dream.

Kyla James, a dance instructor at BreakOut Studios on Fourth Avenue, met Ng about a year ago when she was one of her students.

It was not long after the two became friends.

“She’s a pretty serious dancer,” James said. “She trained a lot and is really talented. Natasha is just as talented as the rest of them.”

When Ng was 10 years old, she and her family moved from Ahwatukee to Scottsdale. Her parents then placed her in dance school and the rest is history.

James said she commends Ng’s strength, ambition and ability to juggle a dance career with academic endeavors.

“Natasha is really driven,” she said. “You don’t meet a lot of people who want to be a doctor and be on a dance team at the same time. So I have a lot of admiration for her drive.”

Ng, who is trained in jazz, hiphop and ballet, said she hopes to somehow incorporate dance to further engage with future students. She is confident this unspoken connection will “surpass the language barrier” between her and the Polish community.

Though she is awaiting the arrival of her passport through the mail and is traveling to Los Angeles next month for her visa, Ng is eager to leave for Poland in September.

In preparation for her year abroad, Ng completed a year of Polish through UA’s Critical Language Program and began independently studying the country’s history.

She will be teaching an English class to Polish students majoring in the language and a Scientific Writing course to STEM students at the University of Opole while living on her own in the city.

“I think the right person got this [position] because she put in the hard work and effort,” Roalofs said.

Maricopa prosecutor takes over Bootman case

BY CAROL ANN ALAIMO ARIZONA DAILY STAR (TNS)

An out-of-town prosecutor has taken over the sex-crimes case against the UA’s former pharmacy dean.

The Pima County Attorney’s Office, which has handled the case against Jesse Lyle Bootman since charges were filed 18 months ago, recently transferred it to a prosecutor in Maricopa County after Bootman’s lawyer claimed the local lawenforcement establishment is biased in favor of the victim.

It’s the latest twist in a legal saga that’s been inching through the courts since late 2015 with no end in sight.

Bootman, 66, has pleaded not guilty to charges of sexual assault, sexual abuse, aggravated assault, kidnapping and drugging the alleged victim with a prescription sleep aid.

Police said the alleged victim sustained a broken nose and other injuries in what authorities described as a “brutal” attack at Bootman’s rented home in the Catalina Foothills.

Pima County Attorney Barbara LaWall, in a May 10 court filing, said she believes her office has acted properly in handling the case.

“However, to avoid even the slightest

appearance of impropriety, PCAO has determined that it will send the case to the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office for prosecution,” the court filing said.

Defense lawyer Joshua Hamilton of Tucson had asked the court to remove the local prosecutor “due to conflict of interest and appearance of impropriety.”

Hamilton, in an April court filing, maintained the alleged victim has a “special relationship” with local police and prosecutors because she was a key witness in a high-profile criminal case many years ago.

“She worked hand-in-glove with detectives while the case was being investigated and while it was prosecuted,” said the defense complaint.

The claim the county attorney’s office is biased is one of more than 20 pretrial motions the defense has filed, some of which question the credibility of the complainant and the actions of police and prosecutors.

For example, the defense also recently asked the court to ban the alleged victim from testifying against Bootman, claiming she misled police about the extent of her previous relationship with the defendant.

The court has yet to rule on that request.

So far, four different judges have overseen the case, two of whom were replaced at the

request of Bootman’s attorneys.

Bootman was dean of the UA College of Pharmacy for nearly 30 years before the university removed him from the post and banned him from campus in the wake of criminal charges.

said he “was overzealous in my defense of the universities” and “I do not wish to be a distraction to the ongoing work of the Regents and the universities.” However, his defense may have already had an impact on university relations with the state legislature.

While Finchem’s bill, HB 2359, was ultimately never assigned to committee, he said he’ll probably reintroduce a revised version of the bill next year.

“Regular business oversight at the local level is beneficial,” he said. “I think it’s a check on the system at both ends.”

The point that prompted the bill, and Patterson’s performance, was that administrative spending at Arizona’s universities has risen over the past several years, leading to concerns about the efficiency of the board’s governance.

Klein believes the altercation could have an impact on the future of the universities’ relationship with lawmakers.

“My bigger concern is that I don’t want anyone for a second to think that this is how the regents do business,” she told The Republic.

Patterson’s actions also cost him an invitation to Gov. Doug Ducey’s signing of the new $1 billion university bonding plan. While concerned initially, Patterson told The Republic he was OK with not attending since he didn’t help craft the bill.

Patterson believes he was standing up to Finchem’s “bullying,” which, as a former lawmaker, he claims legislators use to get their way. He believes Finchem’s plans

News • Wednesday, June 21-Tuesday, June 27, 2017 for the restructuring of the board are unconstitutional, as the Board of Regents is outlined in Arizona’s constitution.

“I think Mr. Greg Patterson did the right thing, because he put aside some personal issues for the sake of preserving the work of the regents and stepping aside so we can move forward,” Careaga said. “I thank Regent Patterson for his leadership in the past year, for his leadership as chairperson, and I thank him for his friendship.”

Following Patterson’s resignation, Vice Chair Bill Ridenour, who was slated to assume the chair position July 1, will remain as the board’s next Chair.

“I have confidence that Regent Ridenour will do well as chair person for the Board of Regents,” Careaga said. “He has good ties with UA … I think Regent Ridenour will do really well, and I look forward to this upcoming year.”

Regents serve for eight years with an appointment by the governor. Patterson was appointed in 2012 by Gov. Jan Brewer.

“Mr. Patterson has been a tireless advocate for our public universities and I sincerely appreciate his commitment, dedication and service to the board,” Ridenour said in a press release.

Ridenour, a UA alumnus and former student body president, was appointed by Gov. Brewer in 2014. “…I wish to make clear that I in no way condone his remarks or behavior,” Ridenour said in a June 16 press release the day The Republic article ran.

“We cannot allow his regrettable remarks and actions to diminish the hard work and outstanding results of the Arizona Board of Regents.”

“I thank Governor Ducey for his trust in me for this important position,” Taylor Robson said in a press release. “I look forward to working with the regents and university presidents at such a critical juncture…”

Taylor Robson is currently the founder and president of the development company, Arizona Strategies. She previously held the positions of executive vice president of DMB Associates Inc., a Scottsdale-based community developer, and

as a principal at the law firm Biskind, Hunt & Taylor, PLC. She also served as president of the Foundation for Environmental and Economic Progress, representing landowners in matters of federal law concerning endangered species and wetlands.

Regent Rick Myers’ term will expire next year, prompting another appointment by the governor.

help TEP strengthen and diversify its grid.

“The solution balances TEP’s need for a system that delivers superior cycle life, high power density and rapid charge capabilities,” the company stated.

Wright said the UA Tech Park has one unique quality that sets it apart from most competitors.

“Unlike most tech parks around the country, this facility is a part of Tucson’s grid system,” he said. “Therefore, it allows for application of new technologies on a grid. Then they can test to see what works and what doesn’t.”

Bruce Wright, associate vice president for Tech Park Arizona, echoed Barrios’ sentiments. He added that the energy storage system could have other benefits as well.

“This could have implications in other industries, from mining

to agriculture and on,” he said.

During a ribbon-cutting ceremony June 1, Mark Frigo, vice president of energy storage at E.ON, said he was excited about opening the company’s first facility in North America.

“Energy storage has the potential to truly revolutionize the 21stcentury grid,” he said.

Frigo said Iron Horse would be key in TEP solidifying its commitment to renewable forms of energy.

“Energy storage systems like Iron Horse allow utilities such as TEP to use renewable resources more effectively and efficiently within their electric grid,” he said.

Barrios agreed. He also said E.ON’s system and those like it are integral to utility companies like TEP moving away from conventional fuels like coal and natural gas.

The university is committed to renewable energy for the future, according to Wright. He noted the Solar Zone produces two times the

energy it uses.

“There has been an effort, institutionally,” he said, “to commit to renewables and being more responsible.”

OPINIONS Five millennial myths that need to go Editor: Jamie Verwys opinion@dailywildcat.com (520) 621-7579

Wednesday— Tuesday June 21 ­­— June 27 Page 6

BY AURORA BEGAY @DailyWildcat

T

he millennial generation isn’t all about spoiled and privileged young people. It’s the generation that is currently in the work force and in college.

It’s the generation that everyone misjudges and degrades.

“Oh, you’re just a millennial,” or “these millennials nowadays,” have become common insults to my generation. We aren’t as bad as older generations put us out to be.

Every generation has its differences. Just because I am in the millennial generation doesn’t mean I’m a completely different person from someone older or younger than me. There are five major stereotypes about the millennial generation that are completely false.

The first stereotype about my generation is that we are entitled.

I’m not sure about you, but I know a lot of people who aren’t millennials who feel like they are entitled to something they want.

I know that sometimes we do come off as wanting to be in a higher position because we feel like we deserve it, but we just want to prove to others that we are better than you think. It should be taken as a great thing that we want to show you our skills and demonstrate how eager we are to earn greater responsibilities.

A second stereotype of millennials is that we want to be praised for everything we do.

I completely disagree with this, and I’m sure my peers do as well. Personally, I would rather praise myself than have someone praise me. I’d rather be praised by people for a major milestone like graduation or a new job than getting an A on my midterm paper.

A third common stereotype I hear

is that we are way too distracted by technology. As we all know, social media is the hype of everything right now. The older generations aren’t as interested in the latest apps, probably because they can’t grasp the concept of a Snapchat filter or what it means to make an Instagram theme. Just because they’re unsure of what the trends are nowadays, they shouldn’t take it out on us.

Every day technology changes and we are adapting to a more futuristic lifestyle. It’s a part of our everyday lives. Jobs nowadays require people to have an understanding of how to use social media and what to expect from the use of social media.

The fourth stereotype is that we tend to be “job-hoppers;” we can’t pick a career so we’re reduced to modern-day nomads wandering from job to job. I’m not seeing this as a bad thing.

Journeying through different career paths, we are building a healthy and desired versatility as well as a variety of new experiences and skills to add to our resume.

Change isn’t a bad thing.

My generation should be supported for taking different job opportunities. Some of us aren’t sure what we want to do as a career so we are going to taste test different fields in order to find what is most fulfilling of our skills and talents.

The last stereotype is that we want special privileges. We want our bosses to be flexible with our requests. Who doesn’t want some flexibility? As long as we work hard and prove to our bosses that we are capable and responsible enough to have their trust, these “special privileges” will help us work through the tougher scenes in life and raise job satisfaction.

These stereotypes of what millennials are like don’t add up.

The world is evolving daily and we are simply adapting.

College culture impacts who we are as people We are formed by the people, places and things that surround us. The university setting plays a part in who we are, and it varies from school to school

BY CLAUDIA DRACE @claudiadrace

A

s cliché as it sounds, college is a place for young people to mold into their fully adult forms.

A college’s environment can completely reroute a student’s planned course of action, due to how their surroundings impact them as both students and people.

I was always aware this was the case, but I thought the road to becoming an adult was determined by who a person is at their core, and the college that an individual went to was simply a location for them to grow.

Last year, when I was deciding which university to attend, I didn’t think much about how the school I was choosing would have a huge impact on the type of person I would become, and to what degree my school’s culture would contribute to that.

About a month ago, I returned home to Idaho from the UA for summer to reunite with my family and friends.

My high school friends were all very driven and put in effort to go to a wide range of schools.

Of my close high school friend group, only one of us stayed in Idaho, where she attends a medium sized state school in a rural area. One went to a small liberal arts school in Utah where she is a student athlete.

Another went to a prestigious private school in the heart of Boston. One of us went to a small liberal arts school in Georgia, and I went to a large state school in the Southwest.

Clearly, we didn’t choose the same paths for our postsecondary education, and it’s showing now that we are back together. I don’t know how the rest of them feel, but I notice a difference between the UA’s culture and that of other schools.

The biggest thing that I can compare and contrast between

ALEX MCINTYRE/THE DAILY WILDCAT

PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS LINE UP outside of Delta Gamma on Aug. 20, 2015. Greek life is a large draw for many students at various colleges around the country, including the UA, as way to be a part of and cultivate community.

the UA and the medium-sized rural Idaho state school is Greek life.

Greek life is huge at this Idaho school, and because it’s in a really small town there isn’t much to do besides Greek life. So, if you choose to live in the dorms, they say it’s practically social suicide.

Though Greek life is huge at the UA, students don’t need to join to have a fun four years.

My friend that went to a liberal arts school in Utah has a very different social life than those of us here.

She is an athlete at her school, which is not uncommon, because 90 percent of their student body are student athletes, with a large portion on the Olympic ski team.

(Where is the Wildcat ski team?).

The skiers are known as “snowbros,” and the minority that don’t play sports are called NARPs, which is short for “nonathletic regular people.” I guess the UA is filled with a bunch of NARPs who never have to trudge through snow to get to class.

Boston and the entire East Coast is known for being very liberal, to a slightly pretentious degree.

My friend that goes to school in Boston is liberal, which doesn’t bother me because I too am a liberal. She loves that her school is filled with students who discuss feminism theory and gender/ sexuality with fluidity. This is definitely not how my school is.

At the beginning of the school year, I was slightly disappointed with the amount of Trump

supporters there were at Arizona.

Now I’m friends with Trump supporters, even though I’m not one myself.

To each their own, but I like the political diversity among the UA’s student body. I think that it has expanded my political knowledge and has challenged me in ways that other schools would not have.

For my friend that goes to a small school in Georgia, she was exposed to a Southern culture that she has not experienced before.

She went into college in a serious relationship, which is why a school culture like this is beneficial to her.

At her school she said that everyone there is either in a longterm relationship or looking for one, even as freshmen.

Of course, there are couples at the UA, but in my experience, the majority of the freshman class is single and usually isn’t looking for their future spouse.

The University of Arizona isn’t the best school in the world, but I like the opportunities it has provided. The person I’m becoming is in part because of the experiences that I have had as a Wildcat.

I do envy some of the things that my friends have at their schools that I don’t, but ultimately I think I made the right decision for me. I think all of my friends ended up in environments that are best suited for them.

Every school is different. It’s just about finding the right school for you and making the best of your school’s culture.

JOSE GARDEA STUDIES FOR a final on Dec. 3, 2016. Students often feel pressure and stress to do well in classes.

Straight A pressure is unnecessary

BY AURORA BEGAY @DailyWildcat

As college students, we all feel the weight of grades, as the pressure to get A’s each semester can cause significant stress. We often fear the judgement that might come from others for not getting A’s; after all, we don’t want anyone to think that we’re not smart or working hard.

While getting the occasional B or C does have an effect on your GPA, it’s not the end of the world. It doesn’t mean that you’re not intelligent or capable. It doesn’t define who you are as a person.

We all have those classes that require inordinate amounts of homework and reading. They push us to approach a subject from all angles, sometimes requiring us to develop different learning methods to grasp the material.

It’s a struggle that college students face on a regular basis.

When we feel like we’re trying our best, but our grades don’t reflect our effort, we get discouraged. We may even lose the motivation to get A’s in some classes,

settling instead for passing. It stings when a professor says that we have potential yet we still struggle. We may even feel that the professor pities us, which can make us feel even worse.

Support from friends, family and professors can help college students feel less discouraged by “bad” grades. Even though we might not be doing as well as we would like, being reminded that we’re still capable and having our efforts noticed can make a world of a difference.

If you’re not seeing A’s on your papers, ask your professor why you got the grade you did. Professors can offer you guidance that can help when writing papers. Go to their office hours and ask them to read your rough drafts — they will be more than willing to help you!

They want you to succeed. Your grades are largely dependent on how much effort you put into the class, so make the effort to go to office hours if you’re struggling.

I didn’t get straight A’s during my first semester of college. I was still adjusting to my new settings and the new demands of me as a student.

In high school, I heard that college professors didn’t care about their students, that it was up to me to learn the material and determine what professors expected. That’s a myth.

After my first year of college I felt

discouraged that I didn’t earn straight A’s, so I decided to make a change.

Starting my sophomore year, I met with my professors frequently and asked more questions during class — questions that I’m sure many other students thought of as well but were too shy to ask.

After changing my approach, I saw an improvement in my grades. I became satisfied with how well I was doing.

Because I was doing better overall, I found that I wasn’t as stressed during finals. I wasn’t as worried about getting a certain score on a final exam to do well in the class.

It’s not a tragedy if you don’t get straight A’s. Give your classes your best effort and you’ll be able to accept the grades you get.

What ultimately matters in college is that you pass your classes and continue working toward your degree.

Don’t be embarrassed just because your peer got an A and you didn’t.

Instead, remind yourself that you did the best that you could and focus on strategies that could help you in future classes.

Just remember that you have to be your own advocate and take control of your education. Continue to work hard, take your studies seriously and you’ll surely succeed.

UA athletics needs to directly confront sexual misconduct

BY THE DAILY WILDCAT OPINIONS BOARD @DailyWildcat

T

he case of Craig Carter, former UA track and field assistant coach accused of sexually assaulting a student athlete, raises concerns about the growing normalcy of sexual assaults and misconduct occurring within the UA athletics department.

In the scenario involving Carter, a UA student athlete alleges that crimes were committed against her by someone who should have kept her safe – her coach.

There was also the case of former UA men’s basketball player Elliott Pitts, whose departure from our school and his team was chalked up to a “personal issue” by UA officials; Pitts’ departure came only after accusations of sexual misconduct and stalking a fellow student.

And yet, in another incident altogether, former football running back Orlando Bradford is awaiting trial for 10 felonies and five misdemeanor charges involving domestic abuse allegations made by multiple women.

Bradford’s circumstances may not be rooted in “sexual misconduct,” but make no mistake: these are incidents of men within the UA athletic department exercising violent and harassing power over women, all coming to light over the span of barely a year.

The university should be both morally and legally responsible for keeping every student safe. Part of that responsibility includes knowing when an internal institution within the university is ignoring, if not perpetuating, a culture of violence and harassment against women.

Inside college athletic departments around the country, a culture of keeping quiet and protecting those involved with college sports is becoming more and more prevalent. Cases of alleged sexual misconduct at Michigan State University, Baylor University and the University of Oregon have dotted the landscape in recent years, and, sadly, there is nothing that says the UA doesn’t belong on the same list. At the UA there is simply not enough transparency about how the athletic department has handled these situations in the past, and what it plans to do moving forward. The UA community deserves to know what has changed, if anything, in light of a lack of procedure for athletes and UA students facing sexual harassment, assault, domestic violence and stalking, etc.

What methods are in place at the athletic department for recording and addressing sexual assaults? Who is a

student supposed to look to for help if they are dealing with this type of abuse?

In the case involving Carter, and others, the athletic department has failed to address these claims as specified by UA policy. A mere relationship between a coach and a student is a fireable offense, but university officials didn’t speak with the student athlete directly, opting instead to send her a couple emails which she never answered. In a meeting with former athletic director Greg Byrne regarding the relationship in question, Carter simply denied it, and it was not discussed again. He would later admit to holding a box cutter to the student, threatening to cut her face. How unhealthy does a prohibited relationship need to be for the university to take action on their own?

There is no time like the present for the UA to get ahead of the problem, and truly investigate this culture on our campus — especially equipped with a brand new athletic director in Dave Heeke and a brand new president in Dr. Robert Robbins. Baylor University responded to a huge sexual assault scandal in its football program with a self-commissioned investigation into the sexual violence that was occurring. There would be nothing more transparent than a self-audit by the UA into the policies, history, frequency, training and priority given to addressing the current culture of sexual assaults.

In a press conference, UA football head coach Rich Rodriguez commented on the post-allegation discipline procedure for former student athlete Orlando Bradford.

“There ain’t one,” Rodriguez said. “We have a rule. You put your hands on a woman, you are done. That’s it. There ain’t no sit down and talk.”

We can certainly see what Rodriguez means here in relation to Bradford; but there’s something telling about the way he worded it: there needs to be talk. Not Bradford trying to get back on the team, but rather the rest of us — the UA community — talking about revisions that need to be made to athletic department procedures, policies and outcomes. There needs to be accountability. If the department of intercollegiate athletics or the UA administration is already working on an action plan, they should be transparent.

TWO STUDENTS WORK WITH their Skittle-sorting machine in a sorting competition held by the biomedical engineering department. The contestants consisted of students from two different biomedical engineering classes.

Students build bots in hands-on courses

BY NICOLE MORIN @nm_dailywildcat

Undergraduates in the College of Engineering and the School of Information came together last semester to test their skills and knowledge in a candy-sorting competition.

The student competitors were enrolled in two courses offered during the Spring 2017 semester: BME 210 and ISTA 303. The classes are extremely hands-on, instructing students on modeling, programming and practical electronics. To bring their creations to life, students also learned how to operate 3D printers and laser cutting machines.

“We try to teach as little as possible, and instead push them to apply what they learned to our labs and their own projects,”

said David Lesser, a graduate student studying astronomy and astrophysics who co-taught the BME 210 course. “As you can imagine, we challenged the students a lot, but they all did a fantastic job of running with it.”

The classes were inspired by the Tucson makerspace community center Xerocraft, in which Lesser, assistant professor Peter Jansen and associate professor Urs Utzinger are actively involved. Many of the classes’ activities and labs were similar to those created for the makerspace.

The competition was the culmination of a semester of hard work. Pitting the two classes against each other, teams designed machines to sort Skittles by color as quickly as possible.

Each robot had to be able to pick up a single Skittle, which it would then pass in front of a sensor capable of determining

color. Once it determined the color of the candy, the machine had to be able to set the Skittle in the correct cup.

Scoring emphasized correct sorting and speed. Penalties were given for an incorrect color categorization, while points were awarded for fast completion times. The student response was more than enthusiastic.

“This was a very new experience for me, having a class where students don’t want to leave when the class ends,” Utzinger said. “Everybody actually contributed and wanted to participate in the contest. Everyone had a machine.”

The winners were a duo from the ISTA class, who’s robot not only categorized the whole bag, but managed to do so with an average of two Skittles per second. They won a small cash prize.

Students were not graded on their designs, however. “The competition was mainly meant to be fun and collaborative,” Lesser said.

While the candy-sorting contest was enjoyable for all involved, it was also a demonstration of the types of skills Lesser and Utzinger hope students will take away from their classes.

For Lesser, one of the main goals of the contest was to give students the ability to solve difficult problems with creativity, elegance and speed.

Utzinger hopes to see students walk away with more confidence in their abilities, especially if they are concerned about

whether or not engineering is the right major for them.

“I think that every undergrad student has this concern about whether they’re made for the particular major they want to study,” Utzinger said. “I think that in this class [engineering majors] can see what engineering is about, what practical skills might be needed and whether they are having fun doing this.”

The maker class, as noted by Utzinger, will also make for a good addition to a resume as it demonstrates time and experience spent engaged in valuable, practical application of skills.

Both maker classes are currently limited to students within the biomedical engineering department, but the group responsible for the course hopes they will eventually be available to more students.

‘Jane the Virgin’ inspires pursuit for higher education The CW’s series about an aspiring writer raising a child draws parallels to a mother pursuing a bachelor’s degree at UA

BY AURORA BEGAY @DailyWildcat

During the past three weeks, I’ve spent much of my free time binge-watching “Jane the Virgin” on Netflix, and it’s helped me strengthen the relationship between me and my career goal. As an aspiring journalist, I’m always writing —whether it be an essay for class, a column for the Daily Wildcat, or just for myself. Writing has always been my passion, and I love expressing myself through this medium.

“Jane the Virgin” refers to Jane Villanueva, a woman who was accidentally artificially inseminated during a routine pap smear. The story follows her relationships and the ongoing drama with the many people in her life, from her mom, dad, grandmother, and on-again-off-again boyfriend to her son, her son’s dad and his wife-turned ex-wife. The show is a whirlwind of craziness in the style of a telenovela.

After Jane gives birth to her son, Mateo, she realizes that she wants to pursue her dream of becoming a writer.

Viewers watch her pursue that goal through her journey toward a master’s degree in creative writing. The show portrays Jane’s struggle to write romance novels while being pushed by advisors to strengthen her work to better capture readers’ attention.

Even after Jane’s dream of becoming a writer comes true as she lands a book deal to publish her first novel, she remains humble and focuses on her main priority: Family.

Watching this TV show felt like watching a hyperbolic version of my life.

As a junior at the UA pursuing a degree in journalism, I’m being challenged every semester by amazing professors who have years of experience. And I’ve had great opportunities to gain experience, such as writing at the Daily Wildcat and interning at the Arizona Daily Star.

I’m being pushed to learn more in my chosen field and to strengthen the skills that I need—just like Jane.

Though I wasn’t artificially inseminated like her, I am a mom to

CBS TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION

“JANE THE VIRGIN” IS a show featured on The CW where a devoutly religious main character, Jane Villanueva, becomes pregnant from an accidental artificial insemination.

a two-year-old little girl. I’m always trying to balance the craziness of my life, making sure that I have time for my

daughter, my schoolwork, my writing jobs and my classes.

After having her son, Jane had a hard

time letting others watch him while she worked on her writing. However, she realized that she really wanted to focus on her dreams, and that doing so wasn’t going to be easy. She would need to couple her motivation with help from those closest to her.

When I had my daughter, I felt the exact same way. I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to let others watch my daughter as I went off to my classes, but I pushed through the “mommy guilt” and continued on my chosen path. I’m glad I did. I’m loving everything I’ve been learning about journalism — and I’ve learned just how much support I have from those closest to me.

Jane struggles with writer’s block throughout the show. Viewers sometimes see her sitting at her dining room table typing sentences on her laptop, only to delete them in frustration.

During these moments, Jane talks with others about it, soaking up their words of encouragement. When she emerges from her writer’s block, it’s usually due to a sudden “eureka” moment in which an idea just clicks.

My life is not a TV show, but I long for those inspired moments. From watching Jane’s method of defeating writer’s block, I’ve learned a new strategy for escaping that awful feeling of being stuck. I’m going to start talking to the people in my life about the stories that I’m writing, and I’m going to be more open-minded about their opinions and critiques.

Overall, Jane has taught me that it is possible to be a mom while pursuing your dream.

I’ve struggled with figuring out what I want to write about, but after watching this show, I’ve realized that events are not always going to happen the way you envision. Your dream will take time and dedication, but it can be realized.

Jane, to me, represents who I want to be when I’m 28 years old. I want to be successful but humble. I want to be able to overcome challenges and be a good person. Although saying so may be cliché, as long as you’re having fun doing what you love, it will all work out in the end.

Local food, art, culture

BY SIMON ASHER @DailyWildcat

The din of hungry patrons harmonizes with the trumpets and violins of the Mariachi Estrellas de Tucson. Booths are set up and their fragrances waft together in a blend of local color, homemade salsa and Mexican cuisine. Tapas are displayed proudly, beautifully crafted samples of some of the best flavors in Tucson. Welcome to the Tucson 23 Mexican Food Festival.

“We want to showcase what the community already has to offer,” said Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance communications director Cait Huble. “We want to highlight the culture that’s in our community.”

By bringing in local artists and musicians in addition to restaurants, the festival showcased the true diversity of Tucson. Partnered with Visit Tucson, SAACA organized over 35 local

organizations, restaurants and artists to form the Tucson 23 Mexican Food Festival, which boasts “The best 23 miles of Mexican food.”

With an estimated 1,100 attendees, the second annual festival was a smash hit. Patrons explored the attractions displayed at the beautiful venue hosting the festival, JW Marriott at Starr Pass.

While sampling and determining favorites, the attendees formed long lines to taste what others raved about. When asked about SAACA’s plans for future festivals, Huble said “We’re already scheduling a third.”

Tiphanie Myles and her daughter Ashaunti described their favorite booths and the atmosphere of the festival, noting that they appreciated the fact that children fit in just as well as adults.

When asked what her favorite booth was, 8-year-old Ashaunti said “All of them, I wish I could stay here forever.”

This past NBA season serves to remind us just how much of an impact former Arizona basketball players are having on the NBA. If you happened to have been paying attention to any of the five NBA Finals games over the last few weeks, then you probably noticed some familiar names and faces come across your television screen — Steve Kerr, Andre Iguodala, Richard Jefferson — just to name a few. At one time or another, all three of them once donned the navy and cardinal jerseys that read “ARIZONA” on the front.

In total, six former Arizona Wildcats three for the Golden State Warriors and three for the Cleveland Cavaliers - had a hand in this year’s NBA Finals that culminated in a 4-1 series victory for Golden State. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, forward Andre Iguodala, and assistant coach for player development Bruce Fraser earned the 21st, 22nd, and 23rd NBA rings in Arizona basketball history.

The championship puts both Kerr and Iguodala in elite company as Kerr is now just the 4th head coach in NBA history to win multiple titles within first 3 seasons of coaching, while Iguodala had the best plusminus stat (+60) of any Warriors member during the finals.

This is also the third year in a row that multiple former Wildcat players have earned championship rings in the NBA. In a rising era of super teams, Arizona is well represented on some of the league’s most dominant squads.

But the impact of former UA alumni was not limited to just the NBA Finals; the fact of the matter is that several Arizona basketball players left their paw prints all over the NBA this past season.

Former UA point guard T.J. McConnell went from undrafted in 2015 to signing with the Philadelphia 76ers and hitting not one, but two game-winning shots during the 2016-17 season.

Aaron Gordon, the 4th overall pick in the 2014 draft, is a dunk highlight reel waiting to happen. His performance in the 2016 AllStar Dunk Contest left so many spectators in awe, that even drone footage couldn’t do him justice.

And let’s not forget Luke Walton. The former UA forward and two-time NBA Champion is the head coach of one of the league’s most storied franchises, the Los Angeles Lakers.

But the biggest stage of them all this year was during the NBA Finals, where Steve Kerr and Andre Iguodala each had signature moments of their own that will surely be remembered.

After being absent for six weeks during

the playoffs and for the first game of the finals due to serious back pain, Kerr returned to coach Golden State in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, and helped guide the Warriors to their second title in three years.

Iguodala then sealed a victory in Game 3 when he stripped LeBron James of the ball as James went up to attempt a game-tying three-pointer during the final seconds.

All in all, this past NBA season is a reminder that even though Arizona has not produced a superstar caliber player in quite some time, the program still breeds players who have the ability to stick and make an impact at the professional level, both in playing and coaching.

And with the NBA Draft quickly approaching, it is also a reminder that Arizona is a still premier stepping stone for athletes who want to make their childhood dreams come true.

Arizona is, after all, “A Player’s Program.”
