Law students give advice following Trump’s immigration orders

In the wake of mass confusion and conflicting government actions after President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders regarding immigration and

refugees, UA’s James E. Rogers College of Law hosted a forum on President Trump’s executive orders on Wednesday, Feb. 8.

New director brings startup expertise to Eller Remy Arteaga, a former entrepreneur, began teaching after spending more than two decades working on startups and corporate innovation initiatives

BY ANGELA MARTINEZ @anmartinez2120

The Eller College of Management has selected a new director to take over the top-ranked McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship.

Remy Arteaga, an entrepreneur himself, began his position in education after spending over 20 years working on startups, accelerators and corporate innovation initiatives, according to the Eller website.

He began his jump into the field of entrepreneurship after he got his first opportunity to launch his business in digital printing.

Afterward, Arteaga said he went back to school after having a degree in electrical engineering to earn his MBA in entrepreneurship and innovation at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

Before coming to Tucson, Arteaga was CEO of DualAlign LLC, served as director at the Deming Center for Entrepreneurship in the University of Colorado school of business and executive director of a non-profit in charge of Latino entrepreneurship programs at Stanford.

He also co-authored an innovation and entrepreneurship book titled “Pivot.”

“I decided to—instead of being focused on shareholder value, my wealth and myself— to look outward and look at

the impact I can have in the world around me specifically in an entrepreneurship center,” Arteaga said.

According to the Eller website, U.S. News & World Report ranked the McGuire center at No. 3 among undergraduate programs and No. 5 of graduate public entrepreneurship programs in the nation.

Arteaga said the focus for the McGuire center is set on preparing students with an entrepreneurial and innovative mindset through curricular and co-curricular courses in order for them to be able to transform businesses and society around them.

In his position as director, Arteaga will be in charge of managing the McGuire Center’s programs and the courses offered, including the innovation expo, community based programs and other co-curricular activities which support the students in becoming entrepreneurs.

Paulo Goes, the Eller college dean, said he believes Arteaga will bring wealth of experience to the school.

He added that because Arteaga ran a similar program at a different school, he knows how to work well with students, communities, businesses and the school.

“I am thrilled we were able to

IMMIGRATION LAW FROM PAGE 1

reached capacity.

“I have never ever seen anything, in the 45 years I have been doing this, like this groundswell of despair, anger and outrage,” said Roxana Bacon, former top counsel for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, when characterizing the worldwide reaction to Trump’s immigration executive orders.

Courts around the nation continue to rule on the legal enforcement of Trump’s orders— the most recent of which coming Thursday afternoon, with a federal appeals court striking down Trump’s most recent effort to revive the ban—creating an ever-shifting field of information.

Tarik Sultan, an immigration lawyer based in Tucson, briefed the audience on Trump’s now frozen executive order banning refugees for 120 days, Syrians indefinitely and visas for nationals from seven Muslim-majority countries for 90 days.

“With foreign policy, perception is reality and regardless of how surgical the administration says this executive order is, it is perceived as a Muslim ban around the world by our enemies and friends,” Sultan said.

Sultan told the crowd the details of one of his affected cases. A U.S. Army veteran who served in Iraq returned to the Middle East as an author and fell in love with a Persian man.

Currently, they are trapped in Oman because the U.S. will not issue him a visa for the United States and they cannot go to Iran because, in retaliation to Trump’s actions, U.S. citizens cannot enter that country.

The executive order allows the president to extend the time intervals found in the ban.

“We don’t view this as a 90-day travel ban, we view it as an indefinite ban,” Sultan said.

The ban is counterproductive to its aims and will increase antiAmerican sentiment around the world, immediately impact humanitarian efforts and negatively impact our national economy as well as international reputation, according to a State Department dissent memo Sultan shared.

Nina Rabin, a law professor at the UA, introduced Trump’s executive order, which is characterized by the administration as aimed at increasing safety inside of the U.S. “President Trump is trying to link undocumented immigrants with fears of public threats and fears about criminality,” Rabin said.

According to Congressional research reports, Rabin said, the vast majority of undocumented immigrants are not criminals.

Trump’s executive order increases the number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, creates an office to regularly report crimes committed by illegal aliens and withdraws grant money from sanctuary cities at the discretion of the Secretary of Homeland Security.

Programs which allowed state police officers to carry out the duties of immigration and border patrol agents and created databases to issue automatic detaining orders for arrested undocumented immigrants were walked back under the Obama administration but are expanded under this order, Rabin said.

The orders also prioritize the deportation of immigrants who have committed criminal acts regardless of if they were charged. Since every undocumented migrant crossed the border illegally or remained in the country illegally, this prioritizes every undocumented migrant, Rabin said.

Lynn Marcus, co-director of UA’s

SHANE BEKIAN/THE DAILY WILDCAT

PEOPLE ATTEND THE TRUMP town hall event to hear thoughts on the president’s recent executive orders on Feb. 8. The James E. Rogers College of Law held the forum in the wake of President Donald Trump’s numerous executive actions regarding immigrants and refugees.

Immigration Law Clinic, presented on Trump’s executive order. Beyond directing the building of a wall and detention of all illegal migrants, the order will substantially benefit private prison companies, according to Marcus.

“The executive order directs the use of all available resources to the building of new detention centers at the border with Mexico,” she said.

It currently costs the state $2.3 billion to detain 441,000 individuals a year, and the backlog of initial hearing dates for immigrant cases is three to four years.

Rabin told the crowd the provisions found in Trump’s executive order will not be implemented without huge appropriations from Congress.

“In the expedited removal process, if an immigration officer encounters someone who is suspected of being undocumented, an officer can issue a formal removal order that is not subject to any review,” Marcus said.

If the officer concludes the individual entered the country illegally and cannot prove they have lived in the U.S. for two years, they can be deported without any judicial hearing.

Marcus worries police departments will abuse the powers given to them by the order.

“This is a very ugly time, but you are not as scared if you are prepared,” said Bacon, the former immigrations and citizenship counsel.

Sultan said the government appears to be processing visa applications again and recommended DACA students file renewal paperwork as soon as possible.

Sultan said the administration will attempt to end a visa program providing international students work visas following the completion of a degree, adding to the growing impact on international students at the UA. Bacon admitted everyone in the room had protest fatigue from the dizzying chaos coming out of the White House. She told the crowd to keep their eye on the ball and talk to their congress members, vote in the midterms and keep fighting back.

‘Operation Streamline’ continues in Tucson Opponents fear fast-tracked court proceedings for immigrants will increase under the new presidential administration

BY KELLY DORNEY @DailyWildcat

Operation Streamline proceedings, the fast-tracked sentencing of defendants largely accused of reentering the United States illegally, takes place every Monday through Friday at 1:30 p.m. in the United States District Court of Tucson. This building is located within walking distance of the UA. Inside these walls, groups of up to seventy immigrants file in for trial. Bound at the wrists and ankles, these men and women stand before the court.

This process proceeds mechanically. The judge asks defendants if they understand the charges, to which the general answer is yes; each person has been informed of the charges in a brief meeting with a lawyer typically assigned to four other people in their group. Many of the individuals who appear before the court have compelling, heartbreaking backstories, yet these stories are not presented for the judge.

“People are arraigned, found guilty and sentenced all in a procedure that takes less than two hours,” said Judith Greene, a criminal justice policy expert, author and director of the nonprofit research organization Who We Are. Individuals move through the court process quickly to conserve time and space, and are generally sentenced to 30 days, with the maximum sentence being 180.

When the proceedings end, the men and women are filed out under the careful eye of courtroom security. When asked about these procedures, the U.S. district judge on the case declined to comment.

Operation Streamline may expand under President Donald Trump’s administration. Attorney General Jeff Sessions was approved by the Senate on Feb. 8 and is expected to head these immigration reform efforts.

The zero tolerance policies that Sessions has pushed, such as Operation Streamline, are meant to deter immigrants from making multiple attempts to cross illegally. They are also designed to make the criminal justice system more efficient.

Controversy over this process

CARMEN VALENCIA/THE DAILY WILDCAT

THE FEDERAL COURTHOUSE ON 405 W. Congress St. holds Operation Streamline cases every Monday through Friday. Up to 70 immigrants are processed at once, often with little interaction with lawyers or the presiding judge.

rests in the fact that the system is sentencing the accused by the masses, rather than trying them individually or releasing them shortly after arrival.

“Our immigration system is entirely broken—it is a complete waste of money and causes human misery” Greene said. “It can take 20 years to gain legal entry.”

Operation Streamline is meant to limit repeated crossings, but Greene suggests the reasons to keep trying may be much more compelling than fear of repercussion.

“People are fleeing poverty, they are looking to make some money to support their families or they are the subject of very violent circumstances,” she said.

Since the conception of Operation Streamline in 2005, illegal re-entry has been the mostcommonly filed federal charge.

Proponents aregue that bringing in large clusters of people at once

is meant to expedite the process.

Matthew Lowen, Associate Program Director of the American Friends Service Committee’s (AFSC) Arizona office, described this mechanized process, stating, “It is a consequence delivery system.”

Lowen works to change policy on a variety of issues from prison privatization to immigrant criminalization. He sees the new administrations building upon this program to make it more prevalent.

“Our concern is of course that there is going to be a push to broaden the net of operation streamline and increase criminal prosecution with immigrants,” Lowen said.

Members of the public are permitted to observe this process firsthand in the pews of the courtroom. On their way in, lawyers often greet regular guests.

“Seeing that in person, I think, is a really moving process; I have yet

to take anyone there who has not walked away completely horrified about what is happening everyday in downtown Tucson,” Lowell said.

Firmly against current immigration policies, Lowell spoke to the informative nature of witnessing it firsthand rather than having to sift through mixed information. “You don’t need to have any talking points really, it’s just pretty obvious that this sucks.”

Lowell recognizes that major efforts directed at policy change are vital. However, small attempts at gaining awareness like going to the courthouse can also be highly impactful.

“That is a really amazing first step, in my mind,” Lowell said.

Some UA students have already accepted this call to action, attending a few of the recent gatherings held in Tucson. UA Freshman Tatumn Zale, BFA in musical theater, has taken notice, attending her first rally on Jan. 31.

At this rally, she proudly displayed

a sign reading “Immigrant” with an arrow pointing towards herself.

“I was driven to this specific rally since I’m only 19, this is the first election where I feel as though I have a firm grasp and understanding of the policies the president is implementing,” Zale said.

She recognizes an apathy towards politics in her peers, many of them voting with their parents or dismissing their relevance. In response, she urges her peers to get involved in politics. “Watch the debates, keep up to date on new legislation being passed and most of all, why America is so wonderful; if you don’t enjoy something a politician said, call your representative,” she said.

In the face of brutal political discourse, Zale remains hopeful about political change. “The mass amounts of protests and marches in the past months will be documented in history books,” Zale said.

POLICE BEAT

BY LAUREN RENTERIA @lauren_renteria

Six hits each A University of Arizona Police Department officer was conducting an area check of the Gould-Simpson Building around 1 a.m. on Jan. 31 when he noticed two individuals sitting on a bench.

As the officer slowly approached, the two people sitting at the bench became startled, gathered their things and quickly walked away.

When the officer got to the bench, he noticed a strong odor of burnt marijuana and followed the subjects who were walking in the direction of Sixth Street.

Another UAPD officer stopped the subjects, one male and one female.

They were both emitting a strong odor of marijuana.

The individuals were advised of their Miranda Rights. The male told police he and the female subject were smoking a blunt.

The male added that he and the female each took about six hits from the blunt and when they noticed someone walking toward them they left in a hurry.

He then told UAPD officers he smokes about four times a month to relax. Officers noted the male exhibited no signs of marijuana use other than the strong odor from his breath and the admittance of use.

The male said the remainder of the blunt was thrown into a trash can. He voluntarily emptied his pockets and no marijuana or contraband was found.

Police noted the woman was slow to speak and had a distinct and noticeable sway front to back while standing.

UAPD advised the individuals they would be issued a UA Student Code of Conduct notice for marijuana use.

Physics breakdown A UAPD officer responded to the Bear Down Gym around 10 p.m. on Jan. 31 to check on the welfare of a UA student.

When the officer arrived, he found a female standing in the grass, while the sprinklers were on, soaking wet and crying.

The officer came closer and attempted to speak with her but she continuously turned away from the officer and began crying louder.

She finally told the officer her name and that she was scared. When police asked why, she did not give an answer. Police then asked why she was standing in the sprinklers and she responded that she “forgot to leave.”

Her boyfriend later arrived on scene and explained they were studying in the Main Library 30 minutes prior to the incident.

He told police she seemed all right when she left the library but was stressed about a physics concept she was having difficulty learning.

The female was transported to BannerUniversity Medical for further evaluation and the UAPD officer completed a Dean of Students FYI notification regarding the case.

OPINIONS Internet takes a shot at dress code sexism Friday — Sunday Feb. 10 ­­— Feb. 12 Page 6

Editor: Scott Felix opinion@dailywildcat.com (520) 621-7579

BY JULIAN CARDENAS @DailyWildcat

T

he hashtag #DressLikeAWoman exploded on Twitter this weekend over an Axios article that attributed the claim to the president’s dress code guidelines.

The phrase refers to Trump’s specific demands for the appearance of his staff. Women, who should be in dresses, and men who should dress in solid colors and be well groomed. This is more than an emphasis on professional attire, which should already be expected from people who have the credibility to work in the White House, it’s an emphasis on specific rules based on gender. This is an instance of Trump’s obsession with optics and unwillingness to let go of his own outdated definitions of how people should live, behave and look.

The article emphasizes the value the president places on appearance, and the importance of how things are perceived by the public. It features specific distinctions between how women and men are ‘supposed’ to dress, according to rules that are set by those in power, not by the staffers.

It was met with major retaliation online, as it should be.

Women all over the world retaliated by uploading pictures showing that women should dress in whichever way they want to. They showed that there is no specific role or dress code for women in today’s society, because women are as ingrained to society as men, accomplishing far beyond typical gendered restrictions.

Women are not restricted to wearing dresses, they can wear suits, uniforms or anything they like. We should be past this conservative way of thinking about ourselves, about how we dress, about how we behave. Refusing to accept this, and specifically defining what one should look like is just another attempt to control and censoring the public.

This is just another way of enforcing rules that aren’t effective at being inclusive and open minded. While uploading pictures doesn’t do much to directly affect change, it does create a united front against these assumptions about what women are supposed to look or dress like. It shows that dresses are great, but that a women’s arsenal of clothing and abilities can consist of much more.

While I was not surprised about the outdated gendered dress code prevalent in this president’s administration, I was astonished about the branding that Trump insists upon.

These definitions, classifications and requirements on how people should look, dress, behave or how they should speak, have been adapted by Trump throughout his years as a

celebrity. His time as president seems to be a continuation of these same rules and guidelines.

Although he has been in power for less than a month, it’s clear that the president is willing to undermine, ignore and disregard in order to confuse or manipulate our nation’s people. He is willing to unjustly define rules based on his perception, not the country’s.

He wants people to dress according to his definition of how they should dress. He wants to set specific rules on how people behave, or live, based on his own perception and experiences. Is he unwilling to listen to the public? Is he unwilling to adapt to the changing country, to the evolving nature of this country’s people? What era of America’s

‘greatness’ is he trying to drag us back to?

We’re living in a time that focuses more on appearances and public perception than on facts. Reality is twisted.

Apparently, if people look the part and speak confidently, as TV personalities and celebrities have learned to do, audiences won’t pick up on the lies they are spreading or of the oppressive, restrictive guidelines they are trying to impose as the norm.

Alternative facts are the new approach. Tweets shoot out into our phones, almost like public announcements, to further divide and cause fear. And we’re becoming accustomed to this. When controversies are the norm, they lose their power to rile people up and encourage change.

SCIENCE Five tips to help you rock the Gem Show Friday — Sunday Feb. 10 ­­— Feb. 12 Page 8

As the Tucson Gem and Mineral Society’s show heats up this weekend, arm yourself with these quick tips and facts to get the most out of your gemmological journey

BY HANNAH DAHL @hannah_dahl715

If you’re not a geologist, a trip to the Tucson Gem Mineral and Fossil Showcase might just be a blur of glittery rocks and expensive jewelry. But with some of the world’s finest gems, minerals and fossils on display, it would be a shame not to take full advantage of the experience this year. These five facts will help you prepare to attend a show and truly get the most out of your experience.

1. Plant, Animal, Mineral?

If you’ve ever played 20 Questions, you already know minerals don’t fall under the same category as a plant or an animal.

“A mineral is a material that has a crystalline structure of a defined composition,” said Shaunna Morrison, UA geoscience graduate student and postdoctoral associate at the Carnegie Institution for Science.

Minerals can be formed in a variety of ways, said Carson Richardson, another graduate student in geoscience. They start out within the Earth’s crust, where magma chambers cool and crystallize different minerals out at varying times and temperatures.

Once the minerals are brought to the surface, a combination of weathering away, rain or ground water can transform them into different minerals, Richardson said.

2. Gems: Minerals’ Flashy Cousin Ever wondered if what you were looking at was a gem or a mineral? The difference isn’t as big as you might think.

“Gems are very high quality, pure versions of certain minerals. They’re also different visually, as well,” Richardson said.

“They typically form in the same ways minerals do, but some of them might form in very specific environments.”

The term “gem” usually refers to something that is transparent and without cracks, the type of stone that would be able to be cut and faceted for jewelry, Morrison said.

Many gemstones, such as ruby, sapphire and diamond, are considered more than just minerals only because of minute differences in chemical composition or conditions during formation. For example, when a tiny bit of titanium is added to the mineral quartz, it becomes the gemstone amethyst, Morrison said.

3. Homegrown Gems Although the theme for this year’s mineral show is “Mineral Treasures of the Midwest,” make sure to keep an eye out for minerals specific to Arizona.

SELENA QUINTANILLA/THE DAILY WILDCAT

OPALS AT THE TUCSON Gem and Mineral Show at 22nd Street and Interstate 10 on Saturday, Feb. 4. Other dazzling minerals, from diamonds to wulfenite, may be seen there as well.

“We [Arizona] produce 66 percent of the nation’s copper and 6 percent of all the copper produced in the world,” said Pam Wilkinson, educational outreach coordinator at the Lowell Institute for Mineral Resources.

Other minerals mined in Arizona include clay, coal, copper, dimension stone, gold, gypsum, limestone, marble, perlite, rhenium, salt, silver and uranium.

Mining also adds economic value and high-paying jobs to the state, in addition to providing our country with valuable minerals, Wilkinson said.

just like that piece anywhere on Earth,” Wilkinson said.

Sometimes how rare a mineral is can make it valuable. Other times, it is their properties that add value.

Take, for example, diamonds, Morrison added. Diamonds are certainly not the rarest minerals on Earth, but their unique characteristics make them particularly expensive. As the hardest substance on Earth and often given to spectacular clarity, diamond can be used for anything from engagement rings to industrial grinding tools.

4. Worth Their Weight In order to form a mineral, the right chemistry, temperature, conditions, fluids, pressure, environment and chemical components must be present, Morrison said.

“When you look at the minerals as they come out of the earth, all their crystal shapes, all their luster, their associations with other minerals; you’ll never find another piece

5. How to Shop With so many shows happening around town, trying to pick the right one to attend can be overwhelming.

Wilkinson recommends the Tucson Gem and Mineral Society’s show from Feb. 9-12 if you’re new to the world of minerals. The dealers there have been vetted to ensure their legitimacy.

This is also the largest of all the local shows and often features particularly beautiful and expensive specimens.

The show provides educational opportunities for everyone, both young and old, Wilkinson said. Afraid of being duped?

Wilkinson also had some tips for buying the perfect gem.

“I think with respect to shopping for things, you should shop for the things that speak to you, that you love, either by their color, their shape, how you feel when you hold them.”

Buying things specifically because they look like they might be valuable is a good way to lose money.

If you’re looking for a display of minerals closer to campus, stop by the Flandrau Science Center and Planetarium to see their newest exhibit, “A Modern Gem and Jewelry Collection,” curated by the UA Mineral Museum, the American Gem Trade Association and the Gemmological Institute of Great Britain.

100 years of science history on Feb. 10

BY NICOLE MORIN @nm_dailywildcat

Garry Kasparov defeated by Deep Blue

Feb. 10 may not seem like the most exciting day, but throughout history it has held some of the most high-profile events in science and technology.

HMS Dreadnought was launched, ushering in a new era of naval power In 1906, the Royal Navy introduced the world to a new naval powerhouse: HMS Dreadnought.

Dreadnought was the first steam-powered capital ship and revolutionized naval design thought by carrying a main battery of large guns alongside a complement of smaller guns, as opposed to the smattering of different sizes found in previous ships.

Alongside these innovations, Dreadnought was equipped with an early fire control system to direct gun fire. She was designed with the intention of improving the Royal Navy’s forces and dealing with newer weaponry designed by enemy countries;.

Her creation sparked a naval arms race as other countries, particularly Germany, rushed to match her might.

HMS Dreadnought is the only battleship confirmed to have sunk a submarine when it rammed into a German U-boat, sending it to the bottom of the ocean. A new generation of ships followed in its wake, called “dreadnoughts.”

The dreadnoughts would dominate the seas and eventually lead to the development of famous battleships such as USS Iowa.

In 1996, a legendary chess match occurred between Garry Kasparov and an IBM supercomputer named Deep Blue.

Carnegie Mellon University specifically designed Deep Blue to play chess and an early prototype was even pitted against previous chess champion Joel Benjamin. Using Benjamin’s help, engineers designed Deep Blue’s playbook for its match against Kasparov.

At the time, Kasparov was the reigning chess world champion. During their first match, Kasparov was beaten by the program, which led to it being the first computer to win against a chess champion under regular time controls. In the subsequent matches, Kasparov won 4-2.

Texas Tech University Founded Public research school Texas Tech University was founded in 1923 as Texas Technological College, in the city of Lubbock. Texas Tech University to this day is the only campus in the state to house an undergraduate university, a law school and a medical school at the same location.

The university was founded when the Texas legislature decided that a new university would be the best option for the region, as opposed to a branch of Texas A&M University. This came after controversy over the school’s location, culminating in some politicians recommending succession of west Texas from the state. Others were more excited; residents were so eager to

As the name suggests, the university is heavily involved in research.

Marijuana Q&A Medical a budding industry for patients

BY AVA GARCIA @Ava_Garcia1

The Downtown Dispensary is a state licensed medical marijuana dispensary located off the intersection of Sixth Street and Sixth Avenue. It has been offering services to patients since it opened in August 2013.

The dispensary was named Best Marijuana Dispensary in the Tucson Weekly’s Best of Tucson in 2015. The Daily Wildcat sat down with general manager Adriana Tysenn to learn about what it’s like working at the dispensary.

Daily Wildcat: What’s your favorite part about working here?

Adriana Tysenn: My favorite part about working here is getting to see the transformation from day one to the following week or the following month for our new patients.

When someone comes in with a debilitating ailment and needs our assistance on what to purchase and how to use it, it can be a really intimidating experience.

Knowing that we’re helping ease their anxiety by walking them through the entire process makes me feel like we’re truly doing our job by helping them. When they come back a week later, a month later, with their lives truly back in their hands, I know that we’re doing something right.

DW: Is there a lot of patient care and interaction here?

AT: Absolutely. I think that we are one of the leading dispensaries as far as patient care and making sure we are walking our patients through the entire transaction. We know that they’re leaving here confident with whatever they’re purchasing and knowing how to use it.

With dispensaries, sometimes you’ll go in and you won’t have the same feeling that you’ll have here, as far as the educational process and making sure that they’re truly understanding everything that they need to.

This is a medicine and it needs to be looked at that way as far as dosing goes and what’s being used for each individual. It’s all going to be different depending on what that person needs.

DW: What kind of edibles are sold here?

AT: Right now, we carry 12 different lines of edibles. It ranges anywhere from gummy bears to hard candies, chocolate bars, brownies, pop corn, it could go on and on, juice, soda. So, lots of options.

DW: Are there any strains that are grown at the dispensary?

AT: We do have our own cultivation facility.

MONIQUE IRISH/THE DAILY WILDCAT

ADRIANA TYSENN, THE GENERAL manager of the Downtown Dispensary, opens a container of marijuana on Thursday, Feb. 3. The dispensary offers a variety of edibles.

Right now we have about 25 strains, and out of those 25, 10 of them are ours. We are hoping to expand into a bigger facility.

DW: How does one become an employee at the dispensary?

AT: We look for knowledgeable and passionate people who want to help others.

It’s important to us that our staff members understand the different ways to medicate and can assist our patients with proper dosing.

We’re just looking for someone who is well versed with marijuana and can explain types of strains, the different effects, terpenes, cannabinoids.

There is a fine science behind this and I think our dispensary genuinely cares about sharing that with patients. We’re going over test results and explaining to them why they’re going to feel sleepier from one strain. and more energized and euphoric from another strain.

Sale racks populate Main Gate Square

BY TAYLOR BRESTEL @taylorbrestel

It seems like everywhere you turn on University Boulevard another clothing store is having a sale. From the sale racks out front to the clearance section in the back, sales are one way to get college students into the store where they might even buy a full-price item or two along with their thrifty purchases.

For students shopping on a budget, a sale might decide which store they would choose over the others.

Sam Daly, a sales associate at Pitaya, said their “BOGO 70% off” sale attracts a lot of customers.

The sale has been going on since September or October, according to Daly, and the store has no set end date for it yet.

“We have [had] our sales a really long time,” she said.

Collette Clothing has a similar style, with a rack of discounted clothing set out in front of the store. Their current sale is for 50 percent off the clearance items, and they have discounted clothing in the back of the store as well. Sales associate Amelia Rodriguez said although the store has these sales, people don’t necessarily purchase just the sale items.

“It depends on what’s on the sale rack,” Rodriguez said. “Sometimes people come in and say ‘I need this now’ and can’t wait for it to be on sale.”

She said the bodysuits and dresses are big

sellers currently.

Jennifer Brinkley, a manager at Grand Central Clothing, sees the same thing with her customers.

“It’s pretty even between sale and regular price things,” Brinkley said. “It depends on the person and what they’re shopping for.”

As of Feb. 9, Grand Central Clothing has a 40 percent off rack out front and 75 percent off near the register. Brinkley said which items are on sale generally depends on how long each thing has been in the store, among other factors.

Brinkley said popular items include rompers and shift dresses, and she predicted that maxi and high-low styles are going to make a comeback this year.

Boutique 816 is also having a number of sales. As of Feb. 9, the store has a rack of 50 percent off clothing out front, as well as a sale on shoes and hats.

Nicole Nardecchia, a sales associate at Boutique 816, said this draws in customers, but they don’t always stick to the sales.

“The same people buy a lot of the sale stuff but they also buy a lot of the regular price stuff,” Nardecchia said. “They tend to mix them.”

The ultimate sale is a going-out-of-business sale, which is currently going on at American Apparel. As of Feb. 9 everything in the store is 40 percent off, according to assistant manager Casey Jargo. All American Apparel stores nationwide will be closing in April.

SELENA QUINTANILLA/THE DAILY WILDCAT

A STUDENT BROWSES THE sale rack at Pitaya in Main Gate Square on Friday, Feb. 3. Pitaya, along with other stores, is having a sale.

“In the past, sales were decided by what isn’t so popular company wide,” Jargo said.

He also said depending on the item, customers might be willing to pay full-price for

it. Halter bodysuits and high-waist cuff shorts were especially popular regular-price items, but those are now on sale with the rest of the store.

“Get it before it’s gone forever,” Jargo said.

Students explore Objectivism with STRIVE

BY IVAN LEONARD @Ivan14bro

On the UA campus there are dozens of clubs to join for a multitude of reasons, whether it is to learn new things, make new friends or kill time.

One of those clubs is STRIVE, Students for Reason, Individualism, Value, Pursuit and Enterprise.

Founded on Aug. 24, 2015, UA’s chapter of STRIVE is dedicated to helping UA students “develop into young people with a clear, firsthanded purpose in their own lives,” according to the club’s Facebook page.

The club’s website said they focus on helping students hone their leadership skills, develop a sense of meaning and help their writing get published.

STRIVE is inspired by Objectivism, a philosophy of Russian-American philosopher Ayn Rand, according to returning STRIVE member Jackson Cassidy, a sophomore studying philosophy, politics, economics and law.

“I gained an immense appreciation for the philosophical values of reason, purpose and self-esteem,

which are more or less the pillars of Objectivism,” Cassidy said.

STRIVE has clubs and affiliates on over a dozen college campuses. The club has even gone international with objectivist clubs in Guatemala, Peru and Argentina.

Jennifer Minjarez, a senior studying philosophy, politics, economics and law, is the head of student executive for the Arizona branch of STRIVE. “My role is building up other people,” Minjarez said. “Trying to give the leadership positions, asking club members what they are interested in doing and then giving them the tools to succeed.”

It was Minjarez who got Cassidy into the club a few semesters earlier, and he has stuck with it since.

“I met Jennifer during fall of 2015 while she [was] on the UA mall for STRIVE during the club fair,” Cassidy said. “I can honestly say that day changed my life forever.

Jennifer and I hit it off from the start and have become close friends. I’ve been involved with the organization ever since.”

Last Wednesday, Strive held its first meeting of the year in room 136

of the Social Sciences building.

“Our first meeting was fantastic,” Cassidy said. “Jennifer, our club leader, gave a great overview of STRIVE and we covered the basics of what we do on and off campus.”

STRIVE prides itself on its ability to give its members life skills.

“It offers students something they normally don’t receive in a regular classroom setting,” Cassidy said. “They get to engage in rigorous intellectual discussion about challenging ideas and to gain leadership positions and valuable, real-world experience useful to their personal goals.”

Minjarez said some people have attended conferences that led to jobs and internships with policy and philosophy through the club.

“Some people have changed their majors because of the discussions we have had and they have seen new things and learn more about their interests and purpose,” Minjarez said.

For Cassidy, the club has shaped his college career so far.

“Like many freshmen, I entered college with only a vague sense of what I wanted to do with my degree,” Cassidy said.

COURTESY ZACH BURRES

STUDENTS DISCUSS “PHILOSOPHY: WHO Needs It?” at a STRIVE meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 8.

He said there was a gap between him and his career goal, which is to become a lawyer.

“Through STRIVE’s many events, the organization has helped me to realize my purpose in life and has given me the moral certainty about my right to pursue it.”

For those interested in learning about STRIVE, Cassidy said people can visit their website at www. striveclubs.org or like the “Strive at the University of Arizona” Facebook page.

Strive meets every Wednesday in the Social Sciences building, room 136.

Arizona looking to break funk against Golden Bears

BY CHRISTOPHER DEAK @ChrisDeakDW

Arizona heads in to their matchup with the California Golden Bears on Saturday facing the same questions that plagued them throughout December. The Wildcats are in a funk.

The Loft, pairs top journalists with their favorite films.

Before the return of Allonzo Trier and the Wildcats’ triumphant victory at Pauley Pavilion, Arizona had issues maintain leads and struggled in the low post.

The series, hosted by the UA School of Journalism and In the five games since the Wildcats defeated UCLA in Los Angeles, they have allowed teams The Loft, pairs top journalists with their favorite films. like the Washington Huskies and Oregon State Beavers to stay competitive into the second half of their matchups. Against the Cardinal, who currently sits at No. 8 in the Pac-12 Conference, they were outscored 42-16 in the paint and allowed junior forward Reid Travis to finish the game with 26 points and 11 rebounds.

If Travis’ dominance against Dusan Ristic, Lauri Markkanen and Chance Comanche is any indication to how the front court will perform against the Bears, the Wildcats could Feb. 12: The Insider March 5: The Killing Fields be in big trouble.

defense just won’t play.

“We have guys who think they are NBA players,” Miller said, “... but they can’t guard the ball. Not only are you not getting picked, you’re not getting invited to [NBA] camp. We have a number of players who can’t guard their man.”

Markkanen’s struggles carried in to the game against the Cardinal, and he started out 1-6 from the 3-point line before hitting a clutch 3-pointer that broke a tie with under two minutes to play.

In his last three games, Markkanen is averaging 6.7 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. For comparison, he averages 15.6 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. “[Wednesday] was the first time that I felt that his confidence was a little shaken, but making that 3 down the stretch in the left corner was big,” Miller said, “He has to also has to be able to do some other things. We played him 28 minutes and he had two defensive rebounds. He’s 7 feet; you have to go get the ball.”

Freshmen Kobi Simmons and Rawle Alkins each played 19 minutes Wednesday, and Simmons was moved to the bench because of Trier’s return to the starting five. Stanford guard Marcus Allen scored 15 points, mostly against Simmons and Alkins, and was described

by Miller as a “line drive scorer,” meaning he does nothing but drive to the basket. If either Simmons or Alkins plays under 20 minutes against California, you can bet Miller was talking about them when he talked about not his players not being able to guard their man.

At 18-6 the Golden Bears are right on the edge of consideration for the NCAA tournament, and a win in McKale Center could possibly lock up their spot. The Wildcats need the victory to keep pace with the Oregon Ducks in the Pac-12.

The best part about being in a funk is knowing that at some point, things will turn around. Now is the time for the Wildcats.

Mauga finished with a game-high two RBI’s and hit her first home run of the season.

Mauga is now 19 home runs short of the alltime Arizona record (87 by Stacie Chambers).

Arizona begins the 2017 season this weekend with the 21st edition of the Hillenbrand Invitational. The No. 10-ranked Wildcats look to start their season off in good fashion as they play five opponents, over the course of the fourday invitational hosted CAL STATE ARIZONA VS. at Rita Hillenbrand NORTHRIDGE Memorial Stadium.

The Wildcats welcome five opponents to Tucson for the 15-game event.

Fordham, Cal State DATE: Feb. 10 @ 5:00 p.m.

Northridge, No. 21 Baylor, Northwestern and Tulsa round out ARIZONA VS. BAYLOR the field; Arizona will play each team once throughout the weekend.

The Wildcats were dominant during their DATE: Feb. 11 @ 3:00 p.m. fall schedule, going 8-0 while outscoring opponents 80-0.

ARIZONA VS. NORTHWESTERN The duo of senior Danielle O’Toole and sophomore Taylor McQuillin combined for 40 strikeouts over 27 scoreless innings.

DATE: Feb. 11 @ 5:00 p.m.

The invitational should serve as an indicator for how ARIZONA VS. TULSA the Wildcats stack up against quality opposition, seeing as four other teams in the invitational made last year’s NCAA DATE: Feb. 12 @ 12:00 p.m. tournament.

Arizona 8, Fordham 1 The No. 10 Arizona Wildcats faced off with the Fordham Rams at Hillenbrand stadium on Thursday night. The Wildcats started the Hillenbrand Invitational off with an 8-1 win over last year’s Atlantic 10 Conference champions.

It was clear pitcher Danielle O’Toole (1-0) needed time to shake the offseason rust off, and she gave up three straight hits to lead off the game, allowing one earned run.

“It’s my last first game, obviously I’m a little nervous,” O’Toole said when asked about the three singles she gave up to start the game.

“Just had to change the game plan a little bit, get on a roll.”

The senior recovered by letting only two Fordham players reach first over the next six innings. The Upland, California, native finished her first outing of the season with nine strikeouts in a complete game win.

Matters only worsened for Fordham when a solo shot by Katiyana Mauga and a pitchhit RBI double by Tamara Statman firmly put

Arizona vs. Cal State Northridge In what will be a difficult tournament overall for the California school, it will give softball fans a chance to see Taylor Glover, who was recently named to the USA Softball Player of the Year list. The senior had an eye-popping .429 batting average, a slugging percentage close to .600 and racked up 22 stolen bases last season.

Arizona vs. Baylor Make no mistake, the Bears can hang with softball’s best. The team returns almost all of their top offensive players from a year ago, notably Jessie Scroggins who led Baylor in five offensive categories. Having failed to win in five of their last six meetings against the Big 12 opponent, Arizona will look to avoid an earlyseason slip-up.

Arizona vs.

Northwestern The Wildcats will face Northwestern right after they face Baylor, and this could be to Northwestern’s advantage. The Big Ten school will have an entire day’s rest before the matchup.

Northwestern brings with them speedster Sabrina Rabin who led her team in stole bases (40), hits (69) and runs scored (54) last season.

She was an All-Big Ten second team selection.

Arizona vs. Tulsa The Wildcats wrap up the weekend with another dangerous mid-major team in the Tulsa Golden Hurricane. Much like Fordham, Tulsa brings some talent with it to Tucson this weekend. Twins Maddie and Maggie Withee spearhead the offensive attack. Both hit over .300 last season and combined for 121 hits.

Arizona is 102-3 all-time at the Hillenbrand Invitational. The Wildcats last loss came in 2009 when they were defeated 6-0 by Creighton University.

Lauri Markkanen faces freshman wall Arizona basketball’s struggles go hand-in-hand with Markkanen’s own struggles.

The Finnish freshman has been impressive all season but hit a wall recently

BY SAUL BOOKMAN @saul_bookman

Coming into Wednesday’s matchup with Stanford, freshman Lauri Markkanen was the key cog in a dangerous Arizona Wildcats. But superman has apparently been hit with kryptonite because Markkanen has struggled the past couple games, causing the Wildcats to stumble as well.

Through most of the game against the Cardinal, Markkanen was lost, unable to find his shot, going 2-for-9 from the field and 2-for-7 from the 3-point line.

Even getting to the free throw line didn’t help as he missed both of his attempts early in the second half.

Visibly frustrated and out of tune, Markkanen settled in and tried to let the game come to him, but he struggled to find his rhythm all night.

Sometimes the ball just doesn’t find its way to you, but Markkanen was also ineffective rebounding and wasn’t a factor on the defensive end, evidenced by the huge night for Stanford forward Reid Travis who finished with 26 points and 11 rebounds.

To be fair, every Arizona big man struggled against the Cardinal’s leading scorer.

“Tonight was the first time that I felt that his confidence was a little shaken,” said Arizona head coach Sean Miller when asked about Markkanen’s recent struggles. “Lauri is going to get out of it. He has to also be able to do some other things.

We played him 28 minutes and he had two defensive rebounds; he’s seven feet. You have to go get the ball, you can’t play 28 minutes and get a total of three rebounds.”

Markkanen came into the game off of his worst shooting

SIMON ASHER/THE DAILY WILDCAT

UA’S LAURI MARKKANEN GETS swatted at by Stanford’s Marcus Allen (15) during the UA-Stanford game on Feb. 8. The UA won against Stanford 74-67. performance of the year at Oregon, scoring only 4 points on 1-for-5 shooting. The game before that, he earned only 8 points on 1-of-6 shooting against a winless Oregon State Beaver team in Corvallis.

From all accounts the freshman wall has been hit.

“I don’t know any player that hasn’t had a streak where they haven’t shot the ball great,” said Wildcats guard Allonzo Trier.

“That doesn’t mean were not going to keep going to him, we trust him, we believe in him ... he’ll be just fine.”

However, even superman

finds a way to battle through adversity and Markkanen did so by hitting a key three with the score tied at 67 to give the Wildcats a 3-point lead with 1:37 left in the game.

It was a big-time shot at huge moment, a moment only the best of the best have the nerve to take advantage of when faced with a drought such as Markkanen’s.

Everything had been going against him—his rhythm, his swagger and his confidence— but he still managed to muster enough will to shoot the final 3 that cemented Stanford’s fate.

A lot of players wouldn’t have done that; a lot of players would have passed that opportunity up, but Lauri Markkanen is not like a lot of players. This is one reason why.

“He’ll get better through this,” Miller said. “I have no doubt he is going to snap out of it.”

The lead held until the 23 second mark when Trier extended it to five with a couple of free throws.

Lost in that transition was a key defensive play by Markkanen as he came over to help teammate Chance Comanche as Travis penetrated

to the basket to try and pull the Cardinal close.

Markkanen’s aid helped alter the shot and Arizona held on for a 74-67 victory.

Markkanen scored 5 of the Wildcats’ final 9 points and finished with 8 points on 2-of-9 shooting.

The best players in the world struggle, but Markkanen’s key plays down the stretch of the game are a reminder of why he is a potential lottery pick and his play is what ultimately may decide what Arizona’s future is in the upcoming postseason.
