Meet the new Wildcat The Daily Wildcat
The Daily Wildcat has always embraced change. We were an early adopter of digital news, creating a responsive and up-to-date website and a mobile application for ease of use. We took a risk in creating our immensely popular Wildcat Weekend editions with edgy entertainment content and robust designs. These past changes allowed us to better serve the UA and Tucson’s communities. Though change is never easy, we are doing it again and in a big way. Ninety percent of you reading about this are on your computers, smartphones and tablets. You are part of a technologically savvy community that consumes news throughout the day, every day. It is time for us to stop treating our readers like they have not changed in the last 15 years. So how do we fix this?
Digital
We already started making changes this summer. Internally, we have changed our structure to place digital news production at the forefront of our operation. Digital editors work seven days a week to make sure dailywildcat.com, our mobile app and you, the reader, are kept up-to-date the moment news breaks. We are partnering with UATV, Arizona’s student television station to provide more student-produced content for you. You will be able to find their videos on dailywildcat.com starting in September. You will see stories released throughout the day as they happen, more video and slideshows, the introduction of interactive web elements and much more. Check in with dailywildcat.com throughout the day for the latest information.
We have been very lucky to have a community that values our print papers. Not many other college publications can say the same. Through research we have learned that, though the majority of our readers are accessing our content via web or mobile, a large number still reach for a Daily Wildcat to catch up on university news. For you, our print edition readers, we have some updates as well. We are reinvesting in our print product by being more selective with what content makes it into the paper. While online you will see our traditional campus coverage, our print product will be refined and focused on giving you the best stories we tell. There are more than two sides to every story, and we want to do a better job of finding them. We have doubled the size of our investigative desk by adding a second editor to focus on longform features of socio-political issues facing the world today. Look forward to seeing more exciting content and stories about the most pressing problems of the day. You will see better designed and easier to read papers with more interactive ways for sharing stories. There will be more photos,

Our writers will be given the opportunity to find their voice and write about what interests them on our new blog section. This will help us cover non-traditional news outside of campus that we did not have room to cover before. You can expect more engagement from us through social media. We will be tweeting, posting and, for the first time, snapping throughout the day. We’ll be more interactive as well. Reach out to us any time. These changes will have come into effect before or with the Oct. 1 launch of our new version of dailywildcat.com and mobile app.

more illustrations and more graphics to give context and supplemental information. We are also reducing our print schedule from five days to three days a week. Not because we can’t afford it, but to re-invest our efforts those days to making bigger papers with better stories. Our publications will be refined to better meet your expectations. You can look forward to more special editions and sections throughout the year like our Arizona Football guide. We are excited for all the possibilities these changes will bring and we are receptive to the future challenges. It is time we face the changing news environment and our changing readership’s preferences. We will be a better news organization for you, our community, not because we have to, but because we want to. We hope you are as excited as we are. It is my pleasure to introduce you to the new Daily Wildcat. — Jessie Webster is a journalism senior and the fall 2015 editor-in-chief. Follow her @JessieWebster15

POLICE BEAT
Riding Dirty A University of Arizona Police Department officer conducted a routine stop for a broken license plate lamp on a Chrysler 300 leaving the Taco Bell parking lot May 15 at 4:17 a.m. The officer noticed the driver, a UA student, had red, watery, bloodshot eyes, and he could smell alcohol in the vehicle. The driver denied drinking but agreed to field sobriety tests. After failing three tests, he was placed under arrest for minor in possession of liquor in the body and operating a motor vehicle under 21 years of age with liquor in the body. A Breathalyzer test administered at the UAPD Main Station revealed a bloodalcohol content of 0.032. Meanwhile, different UAPD officers conducted an inventory report before impounding the vehicle. The search uncovered two shotguns, a handgun, ammunition and a large amount of prescription medication. The vehicle contained a fully loaded Ruger P95 handgun in the center console. Underneath the gun was a plastic bag with 98 Xanax pills and a medicine bottle with 59.5 more Xanax, totalling 157.5 pills without a legal prescription. The trunk contained two additional firearms, a Weatherby shotgun and a Sako bolt-action rifle. The driver said, “I’m pretty sure it was a gift,” when asked how he obtained the pills. He received a felony charge for possession of a dangerous drug and was civilly charged for a non-working license plate lamp in addition to the drinking charges. He was transported to the Pima County Jail and referred to the dean of students for

violating the Student Code of Conduct. F*cking pig, mother f*cker A UAPD officer observed a man trying to conceal himself behind bushes in front of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity on June 26 at 11:40 p.m. The man said he was just trying to find somewhere to “take a leak,” and added that he was not familiar with the area, as he had arrived in Tucson from Nevada 12 days prior. The officer soon identified him as a homeless individual from an earlier interaction. Fraternity members living at the residence were informed of the incident. They complained about a lot of homeless activity such as trespassing and theft. At the resident’s request, the male was arrested for trespassing and was transported to the Pima County Adult Detention Center. On the ride over, he shared his thoughts with the driving officer, calling him a “f*cking pig, mother f*cker.” “Prepare yourself when you let me out of this piece of sh*t, I’m not going to be nice,” he said. “I’m going to beat the f*ck out of all of you!” Swingin’ for the fences A UAPD officer arrived at the Main Gate Parking Garage May 14 at 11:05 p.m. in response to reports of suspicious activity. Upon arrival a group of young males were seen fleeing the garage via the stairs. Two males stayed on top of the garage’s roof where the officer observed debris, which appeared to be broken glass, scattered across the ground. The men admitted a group of five or

Faculty diversity rising slowly In 2014, the percentage of students who were minorities was larger than the percentage of faculty who were minorities, indicating that racial diversity is more common among students than faculty BY Olivia Duffett The Daily Wildcat
While the student body at the UA becomes more racially diverse each year, the faculty isn’t keeping up with the trend. According to data compiled by University Analytics and Institutional Research, 37.5 percent of students enrolled in 2014 were minorities, which is a five percent increase over the past four years. Unfortunately the percentage of minority staff, in comparison, represents only 27 percent of all employees and only increased by a meager 2 percent during the same time period, from 2011 to 2014. While the difference may seem slight, further examination of the UAIR’s diversity profile reveals that the increase in employee diversity doesn’t apply to all staff members. Broken down into subgroups, employees who fall under the categories of classified, appointed and graduate associates or assistants accounted for the slight improvement, whereas administrators and tenure-track faculty showed no statistically significant change. Laura Hunter, the program and research manager at Inclusive Excellence, which serves as a focal point for diversity efforts at the UA, explained in an email interview that this discrepancy may be in part due to the fact that women and minorities are underrepresented in the candidate pool. “Lack of mentors, unconscious bias and other factors can contribute to a ‘leaky pipeline’ in which women and minorities tend to ‘leak’ at every stage from graduate school to upper ranks of academia,” Hunter said.

Despite the slow changes in demographics taking place amongst the faculty, the UA is ahead of the national average in terms of race and ethnicity of college faculty. In 2013, the National Center for Education Statistics reported that only 21 percent of all fulltime faculty in degree-granting postsecondary institutions represented minorities. Conversely, the national average of minority students enrolled in postsecondary institutions was 39.7 percent, just above UA minority enrollment. “There are many factors that contribute to differing levels of diversity across universities [including] differing outreach activities of the universities, the diversity of the larger community where the university is located and
the political climate of the state,” Hunter said. The UA will continue to strive to advance diversity through Inclusive Excellence, which focuses on using research, education and community engagement to anchor inclusion in the core of the university’s mission. “Diversity is embedded in many different units across the [UA] as it is, but we’re seeking better coordination of diversity efforts to increase the impact these initiatives can have,” Hunter said. These efforts include the creation of the Diversity Coordinating Council and replacing the chief diversity officer, who recently left the school. The council, featuring its Never Settle strategic plan, strives to
strengthen the diversity of the UA community at all levels, including race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, nationality, language, religion and socio-economic background. Aaron Thompson, coauthor of “Diversity and the College Experience” and a professor of sociology for Eastern Kentucky University, discusses why it’s important to have diverse college campuses. Thompson wrote in a US News article that having a diverse campus is a necessity for social progress on school campuses, prepares students for working in a global society, expands worldliness and promotes open-minded thinking. He believes that being exposed to as many different cultures
and walks of life during such a crucial developmental period can forever affect the manner in which students treat human dissimilarities for the rest of their lives. Inclusive Excellence currently works to help recruit more diverse faculty members through several programs like the Diversity Coordinating Council. “We are currently in a state of transition,” Hunter said. “We have exciting new plans that will be unveiled in the near future that I believe will be an innovative approach to diversity efforts.”

six individuals were breaking Christmas ornaments with a baseball bat. No bat was found at the scene but the officers observed a backpack on the ground. When asked, none of the men claimed responsibility for it. A search of the abandoned property revealed a cold, halfempty bottle of Stella Artois beer and a cold Landshark beer bottle, which matched broken glass on the ground. When the sluggers were asked if they had been drinking, the answers varied. One male denied drinking and later passed sobriety testing. The other male initially denied drinking. He later changed his response and admitted to drinking prior to the incident. He was charged with minor in bodily possession of alcohol. Both men were released after cleaning the debris off the ground. Before leaving, one individual went back for the backpack, but the officers explained that since it had not been claimed, it would be destroyed.

answers to your ques�ons about sex and rela�onships
sexual health mythbusters! 2015 EDITION Since 1995 SexTalk has been answering questions about sex and relationships from UA students. Here are some of the persistent myths that we often hear: MYTH: I heard ASU has its very own STD. Is that true?
MYTH: Mountain Dew shrinks your testicles and lowers sperm count.
FACT: Wildcats get the same sexually transmitted infections that afflict Sun Devils. The top 3 at UA are chlamydia, HPV, and herpes.
FACT: Good news: NO. Bad news: Mountain Dew is not the new male birth control.
MYTH: If I go to Campus Health for birth control, my parents will find out. FACT: If you are 18 or older, your medical records are confidential and protected. Your parents cannot access them without your written permission.
MYTH: Peeing after sex keeps you from getting an STD. FACT: Sorry, urine won’t prevent herpes, chlamydia, HIV, or other STDs. Peeing after sex might help avoid a urinary tract infection, so it IS a good idea to take a trip to the bathroom after sex.
MYTH: Women can’t get pregnant when they are “on top,” right? FACT: Fertile females get pregnant in all kinds of positions (read the Kama Sutra for ideas).
MYTH: Anal sex isn’t really “sex,” so it’s safe, right? FACT: Anal sex increases your risk of sexually transmitted infections like hepatitis, syphilis, and HIV.
MYTH: You can’t get pregnant the first time you have sex. FACT: First time, tenth time, 100th time – it doesn’t matter. Young adults and teens are at their peak fertility.
UA Campus Health offers many sexual health products and services: STD testing and treatment, condoms, the “morning after pill,” HPV vaccine, birth control, etc. And, Campus Health protects your privacy – if you Bursar any charges, your statement will simply read: “Student Health Charge.”

ASUA focuses on expansion BY GABRIELLA VUKELIC The Daily Wildcat
Rolling in the new academic year, the Associated Students of the University of Arizona received a new presidential board for the 2015-2016 school year. The board is excited to announce many changes both on campus and within the student government. Last year, ASUA proposed and passed a senate reform in their constitution’s bylaws. The new reforms allows designated senators to represent each of the 17 colleges on campus. Given this opportunity, a total of 20 senators will enact policies for a stronger focus on the students in each academic college. “The Elections Commission and the marketing department in ASUA are already doing a great job at marketing the new senate reform,” said ASUA President Manny Felix. “They want to make sure students are aware of this great opportunity.” One of the organization’s goals is to help students become more educated voters by gearing up for the upcoming national elections in 2016.
The student government is working to implement ideas on how to engage students and encourage them to be more actively involved. ASUA will also continue to promote sexual assault awareness on campus. ASUA Sen. Matt Lubisich proposed a campaign against sexual assault modeled after the University of Michigan’s “I Will” campaign. According to Lubisich, the campaign will take place in late January or early February. ASUA will join Krista Millay from the Women’s Resource Center and other Wildcat Events Board members, Lubisich said. During the week-long event, several programs and clubs will have the opportunity to host their own event on how to raise sexual assault awareness on campus. Laci Green, a renowned YouTuber, public sex educator and feminist activist, will host a sex education event for students on campus to talk about topics regarding the definition of consent along with other impactful and important topics. This year, the student government is choosing their new student regent who will work closely with the Arizona
Board of Regents and the UA Office of Admissions. The student regent is the closest liaison between the university and the board. “Valerie Hanna, [the UA]’s previous student regent, did a great job at representing the students and making sure to always keep our best interest in mind,” Felix said. “We need a student regent who will keep doing just that.” Arrangements are currently being made for the spring semester. ASUA Office of Diversity and Inclusion co-directors Karlyn Bradley and Fernanda Bueno said they plan to host a diversity conference including cultural centers on campus, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning Student Affairs, and other clubs and organizations to promote cultural inclusiveness and awareness. They also said they plan to host an open house where ASUA members will visit cultural centers to talk about ways in which ASUA can help and be more actively involved. ASUA Executive Vice President Evan Hastings discussed the ambition ASUA has for the upcoming year and the transparency he plans to promote in his new position.
KYLE HANSEN/THE DAILY WILDCAT
MANNY FELIX speaks at an Associated Students of the University of Arizona presidential debate on March 9. Felix is the current ASUA president.
“I’m excited for this new position and look forward to see ASUA succeed in our goals this year,” Hastings said. “Jordan Allison, our previous EVP, has taught me everything I need to know, and I think my experience with ASUA has contributed well to my victory in the election.” Felix and Hastings encourage all students at the UA to get involved in as many clubs and organizations
as possible, as the variety and opportunity given on campus is widespread and will only benefit student success in the future. “Good luck to all Wildcats on their first day of class,” Felix said.

like a fraternity would be a great way to make the school feel smaller,” Otto said. “Coming from Chicago and not knowing many people in Arizona, it also gave me a great opportunity to meet new people.” Otto said he would describe the recruitment process as long and grueling, but rewarding at the same time. “There’s no better ice breaker than asking the guy next to you if he can see the sweat coming through the back of your shirt,” Otto said. Kewin said all 14 fraternities that are part of the UA Interfraternity Council, as well
as three new expansion chapters, Alpha Kappa Lambda, Theta Xi and Zeta Psi, participated in recruitment. “I really like the diversity of houses on campus and the different things each house has to offer,” Otto said. “I’ve met some cool friends during the rush process, which is something I wasn’t expecting. Overall it’s been a great experience.”

It’s been difficult to miss the crowds of well-dressed freshmen and hopeful sophomores around campus for the past week. Why? UA fall sorority and fraternity recruitment were happening simultaneously. “Having rush at the same time as the girls was interesting because we could bond over the long rush process,” said Ben Otto, a freshman studying philosophy, politics, economics and law. “Coming back to the dorms after rush, everyone was in the same boat.” Fraternity and sorority recruitment involved 1,040 men and around 1,700 women, numbers that have grown steadily over the past few years. The 15 Panhellenic sororities that participated in recruitment welcomed new member classes of about 130 women in size. Danielle Fork, a journalism sophomore, said she chose not to participate in recruitment because Greek life does not align with her personality. “I don’t enjoy being around a lot of girls, and I don’t believe in paying to be a part of a sisterhood or to have friends,” Fork said. “I don’t need to be a part of Greek life to enjoy my college experience.” Stephanie Fick, a business administration senior and active member of Delta Gamma, disassociated from her own chapter during recruitment week to help the potential new members go through the recruitment process. “It was one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done,” Fick said. “The women in my group and the other recruitment counselors constantly made me happy, even on the long days. I’m so lucky to have met them this week.” Brian Kewin, president of the UA Interfraternity Council, said there were about 150 more men registered for fall recruitment this year in comparison to last year. Kewin believes this is due to increased

Grad students find voice with GPSC BY Terrie Brianna The Daily Wildcat
The Graduate and Professional Student Council has been a part of the UA for over 20 years. Jason Harris, the GPSC president’s chief of staff, said the organization is present on campus because graduate and professional students have different needs than undergraduate students. Some of those needs, Harris said, include healthcare, childcare, research opportunities, graduate assistant or teaching assistant positions and determining tuition and fees. Harris noted that the organization is fortunate in certain areas, which allows for grants and funding for research. “I would look to solidify my studies as a graduate student and be able to help others in my position with research opportunities and social support,” Harris said. The organization is comprised of a council of representatives from each of the 16 colleges with graduate programs at the UA. While the elected council is comprised of graduate and professional students, anyone can get involved with GPSC. According to Sarah Netherton,

Hart embraces new challenges BY Chastity Laskey The Daily Wildcat
University of Arizona President Ann Weaver Hart has a positive outlook and a plan for not only the upcoming year, but for the future of the UA. “The UA faces many challenges and has many opportunities this year,” Hart wrote in an email. “Our approach to all of them will be guided by the Never Settle strategic academic and business plan, and so I hope to continue achieving the goals of the plan.” Hart said the university will continue to face many challenges as it pursues its goals. Foremost: the impact of funding cuts that took effect this year. “I think it is clear that we owe her a lot of kudos for minimizing the extent of the cut to the [UA],” said Lynn Nadel, chair of the faculty and regents’ professor of psychology and cognitive science. “It could have been a lot worse if she hadn’t done as good of a job as she did.” Nadel said he has known Hart since shortly before she came to the UA, and that they share ideas and work together in trying to resolve a variety of issues that involve the campus and faculty. Both Nadel and Hart mentioned the importance of hiring and keeping quality faculty at the UA. “Retaining top talent in an environment of diminishing funding is incredibly difficult, and the quality of your education and of the UA’s other core activities depends greatly on our ability to attract and keep dedicated, worldclass faculty and staff here as part of the campus community,” Hart said. Nadel said there are always unexpected consequences, and those leading the effort have to be trusted to respond well. He said he operates on the assumption that the team will react intelligently when things don’t go as planned. “Do we have people in these positions who we trust, who are going to do the right thing?” Nadel asked. “I think the answer there comes back to hiring good people, and I think that’s what [Hart has] done.” To address the other challenges that have come from funding cuts in a way that meets the university’s long-term needs, Hart said that some of the most important work UA senior leaders

will be doing this year consists of collaboration with the Arizona Board of Regents, the Arizona Legislature and Gov. Doug Ducey to create a new model for state appropriations that will be sustainable and allow the UA to achieve its mission. “Other challenges that have come from funding cuts include finding resources for critical building maintenance, for creating new programs and also adapting current ones so that our degree offerings, research and community partnership programs remain engaged with the world that we live in,” Hart said. Nadel said that what Hart has done is no neat trick right now in higher public education. Hart added that many institutions are struggling, but the UA is struggling for the lack of resources and not for the lack of a plan. “I think she’s sort of helped the university reset its strategic
course by being very alert to the political environment in the state and very alert to the changes that we needed to institute here without sacrificing our values,” Nadel said. “I think she’s managed quite well to position us in a place where we can succeed.” Hart said she is looking forward to continued positive outcomes for UA students from the 100% Engagement Initiative, which is a core component of the “Engaging” pillar of the Never Settle plan. “The initiative is focused on giving every UA student thwe opportunity to apply knowledge from formal learning experiences in new settings,” Hart said. “This translation and application of knowledge in new settings is an absolutely critical cognitive ability that the 100% Engagement Initiative is meant to help students develop.” Hart mentioned the Office of Student Engagement, which provides valuable resources
for students and faculty as an example of how this initiative is continuing to evolve. “Another important area of work through the Never Settle plan is the UA’s partnerships,” Hart said. “For instance, I recently signed an agreement with the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México to create a Center for Mexican Studies on our campus. … UNAM is one of the most prestigious and successful universities in the world.” Hart expects the partnership with UNAM to bring new opportunities for students and for faculty research in areas of study that are vital to the future of the UA and to the well-being of not just Arizona, but of the entire country. When asked what she considers to be her greatest accomplishment within her presidency to-date, Hart said, “I am very proud of the collaborative approach that we used to develop and begin
implementing the Never Settle strategic academic and business plan. This includes collaboration across campus, with faculty and staff in multiple colleges, centers and administrative units coming together to create innovative and pragmatic solutions to the challenges that we face as an institution.” The agreements with Banner Health and UNAM, Hart said, are exemplary instances of the university’s collaborative spirit and the approach taken when working with partners from outside the university in the development of the Never Settle strategic plan. Hart assumed the role of president in July 2012. She is the 21st president of the university and its first female president. “I am so very glad to be a part of this community and very proud — Follow Chastity Laskey @WildflowerWishes

Perks for students as school begins BY Victoria Peirera The Daily Wildcat
Wildcats are being welcomed back to school this week with all sorts of free events, services and offers, both on and off campus, to make sure the semester starts off strong. Every year, students have to go through the hassle and expense of purchasing new textbooks, replenishing supplies and settling tuition dues. For those just starting their freshman year or moving into a new house or apartment, an additional chunk of change is directed towards setting up a living space. At this time of year, there’s clearly a lot of money flowing out of the hands of students and their parents, so something like the beginning-of-the-semester Student Insider Discount Handbook is a useful commodity. The coupon books feature deals for restaurants, services, shopping and activities all over campus and the surrounding area. A free appetizer at Frog & Firkin, discounted shipping rates at The UPS Store and a free game of billiards in The Cellar Games Room were only a few of the dozens of deals offered last year. Not only do these coupon books provide students with money-saving opportunities, but they also come with guides to the best eateries, shops, bars and apartment complexes in the area. Various establishments at Main Gate Square on University Boulevard are running their own back-to-school specials. American Apparel is offering 30 percent off specific items for a limited time both in-store and online, according to the company’s website. Urban Outfitters is doing something similar with discounts on all sorts of clothing and items that students might need. Gentle Ben’s Brewing Company, the popular restaurant and microbrewery that transforms into a club on the weekends, is bringing back their $2 Tuesday drink special. This Tuesday, all drinks will be $2 from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m., music will be provided by Trevor Morgan and wristbands can be purchased at any time during the day or at the door. According to Gentle Ben’s Facebook page, “It’s bound to get crazy, which is perfect because you weren’t planning on going to class during syllabus week anyway.” Last weekend, various events were held for those new to campus. Residence Life and the Arizona Student Unions held Party in the Park on Friday, August 21. From 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. students could play volleyball, laser tag or bubble soccer; get henna tattoos or a caricature drawing; enjoy free food and listen to music all while meeting some new friends.
Victoria Peirera/The Daily Wildcat
UA STUDENTS enjoy the festivities at the Party in the Park outside of Park Student Union on Friday. The event was part of Wildcat Welcome.
Another event held over the weekend, this one specifically for freshman, was the New Student Convocation Bigger.Better. Bash! Beginning at 6 p.m. on Sunday night, students were able to sample free food from the Student Union Memorial Center’s numerous eateries through the Taste of the Unions. Around 8 p.m., the convocation portion of the night began. Students were introduced to some Wildcat traditions, met Wilbur and Wilma Wildcat and were treated to a surprise performance by DJ Tom Loud’s Hot Dub Time Machine, a show from Sydney,
Australia. “We’re committed to making everything bigger and better as we move forward,” said Allen Womble, the Student Engagement Coordinator for the Arizona Student Unions. “Last year was the first year it was out on the mall in that way, and that went so well that they wanted to keep that and add something extra, and that’s how it came together.” Tonight, Campus Recreation is holding their annual Meet Me at the Rec event from 6-8 p.m. at the William David Sitton Field. Students will have the opportunity to learn about the activities offered through the
Rec Center, including intramural sports and outdoor adventure programs, while meeting new friends and playing some games themselves. With all the free events and discounts to be found on and off campus during this first week of school, students can be sure that they’ll be starting off the semester right.

Looking back on films of the summer BY Alex Guyton
The Daily Wildcat
This summer saw huge, record-breaking returns at the box office. So, does huge financial success equate to some actually worthwhile movies? While “Jurassic World” and its Indominus Rex-sized $1.6 billion (and counting) didn’t make this list, here are four films of the past summer that you should still try to catch before they leave theaters. “Mad Max: Fury Road” — In a postapocalyptic wasteland, Max (Tom Hardy) crosses paths with Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron), a top soldier for Immortan Joe, the deified leader of the masses who controls access to water. Furiosa has stolen Joe’s daughters away from his abusive kingdom, and Joe, accompanied by an entire army of gasguzzling four-wheeled machines of various shapes and sizes, wants his daughters back. Those couple of sentences sum up about all of the exposition that the movie spoon-feeds its audience. In fact, I might have been a little verbose. It’s not to say that the narrative is nearly non-existent. On the contrary, it’s a fairly thorough narrative that’s presented in an extremely economical fashion. Having less dialogueheavy exposition makes more time for sanity-defying car crashes and flamespewing guitars. It’s an action film that maximizes the amount of, well, action. A novel, refreshing concept that’s all the better when the myriad setpieces are certified bonkers. “Inside Out” — Pixar is one of the few film companies that simply needs no introduction. Their library of 3D animated films houses many modern-day classics and “Cars 2.” The next film to enter this hallowed ground takes us into the mind of an 11-year-old Midwestern girl, where emotions are anthropomorphized as spritely avatars. There’s hot-headed, red Anger; exasperated, green Disgust; fidgety, purple Fear; dumpy, blue Sadness; and the leader of the bunch is pixie-like, yellow Joy. When her family moves, Riley’s state of mind gets out of whack, and it’s up to her emotions to delve into her brain and set things right. I’m not convinced that “Inside Out” is the studio’s best; it sometimes felt a little too cute, occasionally shorting the infinite complexity of human emotions through palatable simplicity. However, a film landing in the upper-middle section of Pixar’s catalogue still places it in rarefied air when compared to everything else. “The Gift” — Jason Bateman and Rebecca Hall play a husband and wife,
Courtesy of Kennedy Miller Productions
respectively, who gain the unwanted, persistent attention of an old classmate, played by Joel Edgerton. Edgerton, known for his acting career, also wrote and directed this incredibly well-paced, insidiously quiet thriller. The ending tries to be too clever for its own good, and the film nearly trips over itself and falls on its face as it reaches the finish line. However, it’s still not enough to fully detract from the tension that Edgerton patiently mounts throughout the entire film. Among the myriad of franchise films and big-name blockbusters, it’s easy for this one to get buried. Don’t let it. “Straight Outta Compton” — The biopic of seminal California gangsta rap group N.W.A. has a lot going for it. On the superficial level, the actors look a lot like the rappers they’re representing. Case in point, Ice Cube’s son, O’Shea Jackson Jr., plays his father. This level of fidelity is matched in the subject matter, as Dr. Dre and Ice Cube were advisors to the film. From the group’s impoverished beginning through their meteoric, controversyriddled hustle to the top of music, the story is engaging and feels authentic. However, even though the gritty tale includes a good many warts, it doesn’t include them all. Most notably, Dre’s physical assault of music journalist Dee Barnes in 1991 was in an earlier version of the screenplay, but omitted for the sake of streamlining the narrative. — Follow Alex Guyton @guytonalexander

Sitcom examining life of RAs strays from reality BY ALEX FURRIER
The Daily Wildcat
At some point in every student’s college career, the same thought will cross their minds: maybe I should become a resident assistant. The perks are obvious. No rent expense. Your own room. The perfect amount of authority to inevitably go to your head. The cons? Dealing with people’s problems. All. The. Time. An RA has a 24/7 job. A job bound to produce memorable stories and hijinks, the perfect recipe for a sitcom. That’s the thought process behind Hulu’s “Resident Advisors,” which follows the misadventures of five RAs as they stumble their way through the intricacies of the RA life. To verify the accuracy depicted by “Resident Advisors,” former UA resident assistant Peter Reynolds was interviewed. The expectation heading into the interview was that the life of an actual RA would not live up to the ridiculousness of “Resident Advisors,” but as the old saying goes, truth is stranger than fiction. When asked about the experience as a whole, Reynolds described the RA life
as “revealing.” “I barely slept for a year,” he said. “I was exposed to so many new things. I was pushed beyond anything I was expecting. I lived where I worked, and I learned so much. Basically, I was a group facilitator for a malleable group of freshman, and it was pretty neat.” “Resident Advisors” focuses on the zany misadventures of the RA life rather than the trying experience of balancing school, life and a 24/7 job. The show begins each episode with a flash-forward to the same pivotal event: a fire alarm during a dorm-wide Halloween party. Although this specific event never happened during Reynolds’ time at Coronado Residence Hall, he shared a never-ending amount of amusing and sometimes disturbing stories. Even one that was about a fire alarm. “One time, right before mid-terms, the alarm went off around 5 in the morning,” Reynolds said. “We were all really confused and half-awake but managed to get out of the dorm pretty quick. As an RA, I got to handle crowd control. The last person out of the building was covered in white powder and was coughing. Firemen went around the building

and confirmed that there was no fire. What had actually happened was this: someone came home drunk, stole a fire extinguisher from the wall and sprayed it in his sleeping roommate’s face. The roommate, thinking no one would ever use a fire extinguisher unless there was a fire got up and pulled the fire alarm. He also had asthma, resulting in hospitalization.” This story touched on a key difference between the “Resident Advisors” and the actual RA experience: it’s not all harmless fun in real life. As with every sitcom, all of life’s problems wrap up neat and tidy in 20 minutes. Not so in real life. Peter told stories of a drug bust that lasted for seven hours, which exceeds the entire run time of the first season of “Resident Advisors.” Other stories involved the necessity of policemen, such as an argument between frat guys that escalated to a brawl. Luckily, that story had a happy ending. “When the officers showed up, the four frat guys bolted,” Reynolds said. “We couldn’t find them for a while, until we heard them talking from one of the rooms. The cops knocked for a while

New semester, new food With school starting, take the opportunity to explore new food options around the UA campus
BY REINA MORRISON The Daily Wildcat
A new school year brings new students and new food to Tucson. With new restaurants around town and more to open this year, it’s easy to find fresh places to eat off campus. For those looking for a restaurant that focuses on breakfast, lunch and the in-between, Prep & Pastry has added another location at 6390 E. Grant Rd. With a large menu featuring french toast flavors like s’mores and apple strudel, and classics like pancakes, omelettes and a large selection of other egg dishes, Prep & Pastry is open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekends. Nook, located downtown on East Congress Street, is another breakfast joint that opened in March. Nook serves breakfast, lunch and brunch, offering a locally owned environment with a wide variety of urban dishes. Their menu has everything from avocado toast to a Benedict flight. “We do classic American food with some international flare,” said Nook owner Nikki Thompson. Be sure to try the godfather Benedict, the restaurant’s most popular dish. “It’s a Benedict with prosciutto, arugula, poached eggs, a house hollandaise and finished with a balsamic
drizzle,” Thompson said. “It’s by far the number-one thing people want.” Nook is open from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday and until 3 p.m. on the weekends. Kneaders Bakery & Café recently opened on 135 S. Wilmot Road. If you’re looking for freshly baked goods or lunch, Kneaders offers sandwiches, soups, salad, pastries and a wide variety of baked goods. They are open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday and are closed on Sundays. Street Taco & Beer Co. is now located downtown at 58 W. Congress St. for those interested in a quick bite to eat. They offer $2-3 traditional Mexican tacos as well as locally crafted beer. Open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, Street Taco & Beer Co. stays open for an extra hour on Friday and two extra hours on Saturday before closing for Sunday. “I’m excited because the food is really reasonable for college students, and I love tacos,” said Alexandra Cebry, a junior studying social behavior and human understanding. Johnny Gibson’s Downtown Market opened this summer on 11 S. Sixth Ave., operating from 7 a.m. to midnight. This new market offers a self-proclaimed “eurban” style of grocery shopping, and even offers delivery service by bike for customers. “The Downtown Market is really close to where
I live, so it’s convenient for me and has a lot of good organic produce,” said Rachel Ward, a junior studying retail and consumer science. The market’s grand opening will take place in September. For a sweet treat, The HUB Ice Cream Factory has opened separately from its former location inside the HUB Restaurant. Here you can find homemade ice cream, shakes, floats and sandwiches. Try their salted caramel or oatmeal cookie dough flavors served at both the restaurant and the Ice Cream Factory. They are open from noon until 10 p.m. Sunday through Wednesday and stay open from noon until 2 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. For a variety of burgers, barbecue items and Sonoran specialties, look for RoadRunner Mobile Kitchen as a quick way to grab a bite in between classes. The mobile kitchen resembles a food truck atmosphere with a variety of foods. Illegal Pete’s Mexican restaurant and bar will open this fall as well, with live music on 876 E. University Blvd. “We’re really excited to be a part of this community,” said owner Pete Turner.

in the super-loud cop knock, and then they opened the door to find all of them hiding under beds crying.” Real life doesn’t always resolve into hilarious incidents though. Reynolds was required multiple times to testify for assault and domestic abuse incidents. Not all of “Resident Advisors” turned out to be inaccurate. There certainly were plenty of circumstances on the show and in real life that required a sit down between roommates with their RAs as mediator. Good RAs, in Reynolds’ experience, also give out their cell phone number in order to be more easily accessible, a fact repeatedly seen on the show. Yet the inaccuracies of the show pile
up, each more outrageous than the last. According to Reynolds, no RA was tasked to get drunk in order to “lead by example” and show the danger of alcohol. Farts were not a consistent source of humor, and life was not interrupted by advertisements for Abercrombie & Fitch jeans and Eggo waffles. “Resident Advisors” and the actual RA experience do not entirely match up, but both provide good stories filled with humor. Real life will always be stranger than fiction, but if you’re in the mood for some lighthearted college escapades filled with humorous misunderstandings all in the fish tank of the RA life, don’t be afraid to check out “Resident Advisors,” streaming now on Hulu. — Follow Alex Furrier @badjazzmaverick

“Lean On” — Major Lazer and DJ Snake “Lean On” was a club hit during the summer and a great song to spin around and move your body to with your best friends on the dance floor. It really gets you nostalgic about warm nights out with friends and not having a worry or care in the world.

“You Know You Like It” — DJ Snake and AlunaGeorge DJ Snake did it again with another great club banger for the summer. This song is more laid back but still gives you that summer feeling of a careless attitude.

“Here” — Alessia Cara Although this is not a fun-loving song for the summer, we can’t forget about those who simply like to kick back with true friends. This song is a shout out to the introverts that feel the pain of house parties that Cara describes. I hope your summer was more enjoyable then hers.

“Bad Blood” — Taylor Swift feat.

Not to mention all the big celebrities that played rough and rowdy characters in the video going one-on-one with Taylor Swift. Why is this a great summer song? Because you feel awesome listening to it.

“Cheerleader” — OMI (Felix Jaehn remix) OMI’s tropical feel in the song “Cheerleader” makes it perfect for the summer. Even if you weren’t able to make it to the beach, this song takes you there in a matter of minutes. Its fun, light beat and smooth voice give it a laid back feel that makes you feel like you’re on the beaches of Jamaica drinking a margarita. Isn’t that what we all want to do during the summer time?

“Can’t Feel My Face” — The Weeknd The Weeknd keeps on spitting out hits, and “Can’t Feel My Face” was a great love song for the summer! The heavy bass presence and simple hi-hat and snare beat on the drums gives it a funky feel. You’ll want to dance like Michael Jackson when you hear this song.

Nothing new about appropriation BY Nick Havey The Daily Wildcat
W
hile Canada has a general reputation as an innocuous, lovable country, fashion magazine ELLE Canada is under fire this week after asking the question “Is the dashiki the new caftan?” in a trend piece. While both dashikis and caftans make for comfy summer garb, assigning the traditional West-African garment a trend tag and calling it the new “it” item is quite problematic. This is mostly because it’s not new, and it’s not a trend; it’s a culture. “[S]ince when were dashikis new? [M]y culture is not a trend” Twitter user @__stxcey asked. The dashiki, like cultural appropriation and white stylizing and fetishizing of nonWestern cultural items as “it” pieces, is nothing new. It’s been a traditional piece of clothing in West Africa for centuries. Twitter user @LOVEEugonma cites frustration: “This is so irritating. NOTHING about a dashiki is new. It’s been the ‘it-item’ in African countries since forever.” American popular culture has been beneficially infused with black culture since the 1700s and, as jazz, blues, R&B and rap music have become popular, white appropriation of black culture has become
the norm. The adoption of cornrows on white people, grills, and artificially plump body parts — just Google Kylie Jenner if you’re confused — is ubiquitous. “The Hunger Games” actress Amandla Stenberg addresses the growing concerns of cultural appropriation in both an Instagram post and a well-done video appropriately titled “Don’t Cash Crop My Cornrows,” noting that black women are criticized and judged for dark skin, plump lips and natural hairstyles like cornrows and afros. However, those attributes are considered favorable when attributed to white women. They become trends and physical accessories instead of expressions of a cultural identity or stylish ways to treat and maintain the natural hair of black people. Stenberg goes on to explain that, “Appropriation occurs when a style leads to racist generalizations or stereotypes where it originated, but is deemed as high fashion, cool or funny when the privileged take it for themselves.” ELLE Canada’s trend piece is an example of this. Stenberg also notes the recent influx of popular music icons utilizing black culture in their music videos and personas, from Riff Raff and his neon cornrows to Katy Perry’s

cornrows. The use of ebonics and a nonsequitur cut to an image of Aretha Franklin with “#respect” emblazoned boldly below it in Perry’s “This is How We Do” video show that appropriation runs rampant. Fashion is no different. While high fashion is occasionally deemed tactless and insensitive in its use of white models to exhibit “ethnic” or “tribal” styles, there are some ways to do it properly. At Fashion Week, Japanese designer Junya Watanabe displayed a subpar show exhibiting white models with exaggerated dreadlocks and large, chunky tribal jewelry. In the past, Watanabe has been known for his deft manipulation of cultural styles in his shows. His Fall/Winter 2015 collection used La Sape inspired Congolese sapeurs and actual Congolese models to display the dandyism and style endemic to the piece of clothing. It was, as Menswear writer Nick Grant said, “On point.” So when ELLE Canada simply assigned a trend tag to a traditional garment and displayed a white model wearing it, problems were likely to arise. Ndekela Sakala, a junior studying psychology and biochemistry, is

uncomfortable with a traditional cultural garment becoming a trend. “Dashikis [and other traditional clothing] aren’t necessarily sacred, but they are uniquely tied to African culture,” Sakala said. “Political black movements have sort of reclaimed them and use them as a way to reconnect with their African ties. “With the ELLE article, it makes me constantly uncomfortable when publications make things prominent to black culture the newest ‘it’ item, because they’re rarely new, and they’re also something that comes as a source of ridicule for the originating culture by media sources, but become cool because everyone wants to be Beyoncé or Rihanna, you know?” Sakala asked. Ironically, Beyoncé and Rihanna have both been pictured wearing dashikis by brand Dimepiece LA on Instagram and in media. While I’m a fan of Beyoncé and Rihanna, I didn’t let myself buy a dashiki at Buffalo Exchange, and I’m glad I didn’t because I: A—looked ridiculous, and B—am not African… I won’t be having dreads anytime soon, either. Before you adopt either of those things or myriad other options, ask yourself the same question Stenberg asks in her video: “What would America be like if we loved black people as much as we love black culture?” — Nick Havey is a senior studying physiology and Spanish.

Bernie Sanders not a done deal BY Greg Castro The Daily Wildcat
M
ost college students are rightfully enthralled with Bernie Sanders. He’s a young person’s candidate, promising massive economic reforms aimed squarely at reducing or even outright eliminating student debt. As a student myself, I’d love to see the Bern in office. Not only would he work to repair our broken loan system, but he’d also end the war on drugs. He’d fight the privatization of prisons, schools and healthcare. If Bernie won, the birds would sing from the trees and the animals would come out of the forests to herald the dawn of a new age. But unfortunately, that is extremely unlikely to happen. On June 25, just as Bernie was beginning to gain popularity online, Huffington Post Politics ran a column headlined, “It’s Official — Bernie Sanders Has Overtaken Hillary Clinton In the Hearts and Minds of Democrats.” While the Internet has never been known for its clear and honest headlines, this one in particular championed the misleading click bait game. Many read this headline as: “Oh great,
Bernie is beating Hillary now!”, but others actually read the article itself and realized that the piece offered up nothing more than some observations on Bernie’s rise to popularity in New Hampshire and, well, almost nowhere else. That’s because Bernie isn’t particularly popular beyond the educated, wealthy utopia we call New England. HuffPost Pollster, being grounded in statistics and, you know, facts, is less susceptible to misleading headlines and tells a very different story. As of Friday, Hillary Clinton is leading national democrat election polls with 49.6 percent of the vote, leaving Bernie with a mere 21 percent. CNN notes in a poll of their own that Bernie is gaining some ground, though not at the rate he needs to. Since the Clinton email scandals, Bernie’s numbers have risen, though only slightly. According to CNN, “Democrats and leaners think Clinton would best handle issues related to the economy, … race, … foreign policy … and the income gap.”
“
In a conversation amongst FiveThirtyEight editors, Harry Enten, the senior political writer and analyst for the site, noted that, most of all, Sanders needs to find a way to appeal to black voters in the way that Hillary does. “If Clinton continues to win 70 percent of the black vote, Sanders will likely get stopped in South Carolina,” he said. The editors conclude their conversation by giving Sanders a mere 2-percent chance of actually winning the nomination. Clearly, there are many more battles across many more fronts that Sanders needs to win before the race can even begin to be called close. And yet, the fact still remains that Bernie seems imminently popular on social media and college campuses. So why isn’t that being reflected in the polls? Well, polls take into account not only demographics, as in what kinds of people vote, but also voter turnout, as in what percentage of what kinds of people will actually take the time to physically vote. Typically, we 18-to-24-year-olds don’t do so well in that regard. According to
As of Friday, Hillary Clinton is leading national democrat election polls with 49.6 percent of the vote, leaving Bernie with a mere 21 percent.”
Relax
the United States Census Bureau, in 2008 only 49 percent of young people voted compared to 70 percent of those 45-and-up. Guys, that’s disgusting. Us young people have more to win or lose in this election than any other demographic. The policies implemented by the next president will still be affecting us in 20 years, while those 45-and-ups will either be in the nursing home or in the grave, not really in a position to care either way. This isn’t a call to work hard to beat the republicans. We have nothing to fear (on the national stage) from a party whose most popular candidate is Donald Trump. Though that should serve as a reminder to be sure to vote in your local and state elections as well. Republicans are doing more damage there than they ever could on a federal level. The point, then, is to actually pay attention to the issues, not just to vote for the candidate who sends you a bumper sticker. Students could make history and elect the most liberal president of the last century, or keep reading HuffPost Politics and let Hillary, the establishment candidate, ease on down victory lane. — Greg Castro is a film and television production senior.

Men not the only natural athletes BY ELIZABETH HANNAH The Daily Wildcat
A
quick glance at the items that generally adorn the sideline of an Ultimate Frisbee field — a blaring speaker, an assortment of costumes and a keg — should give you an idea of how seriously Ultimate players take themselves. To be a successful Ultimate player, you must adhere to three simple rules: play hard, have fun and uphold the “spirit of the game.” Any athletic achievements borne out of those principles are secondary to an irrational love for chasing a flying disc back and forth across a 70-yard field. It takes a lot to stir up a group of Ultimate Frisbee players, but this summer the Tucson Ultimate community was abuzz with controversy. Every fall, spring and summer, Tucson Ultimate organizes a recreational, co-ed Ultimate Frisbee league. In co-ed Ultimate, each team has seven players on the field at once, and both teams must have matching gender ratios. For example, if one team has
four men and three women on the field, the opposing team must also have four men and three women. In general, the offensive team decides what the gender breakdown will be on a given point. In the past, any Ultimate Frisbee aficionado could sign up as an individual player and be guaranteed a spot on a Tucson League team. The consequence of this system was a consistently male-dominated League structure. Although League was ostensibly co-ed, in reality there were significantly more male players than female players. As a result, most teams played with five men and two women on the field, and women often played the entire game for want of substitutes. This summer, Tucson Ultimate implemented a policy mandating that each League team include at least three women at all times. To be guaranteed a spot on a team, men and women were encouraged to sign up together as pairs. Any unpaired men who registered individually were matched with any unpaired women. Men left without female counterparts were assigned to a team in a newly formed Men’s League.
“
But there is a problem with a co-ed sports league in which, at any given time, 10 of the 14 players on the field are men.”

Perhaps, unsurprisingly, this new policy created uproar among people who felt that men were being unfairly excluded from League. They argued that it was appropriate for teams to have more men than women because, after all, more men tend to play Ultimate than women. Many saw no issue with a 5:2 gender distribution on the field if team demographics lent themselves to such a ratio. But there is a problem with a co-ed sports league in which, at any given time, 10 of the 14 players on the field are men. This dramatic imbalance inevitably causes women to be looked upon as second-rate players, bodies who simply take up space that would be better utilized by men. Repeating the oft-heard mantra “men play more sports than women” does not justify this glaring inequality, but rather allows it to continue without being subjected to serious scrutiny. Instead of blindly accepting the notion that men inherently participate in sports
more often than women, people should question what causes this phenomenon. Perhaps it is the fact that young girls continue to be funneled into activities like dance and swimming, while young boys are pushed towards basketball and soccer. Maybe it is a function of the media, which perpetuates the male-dominated nature of sports through its glorification of size, speed and strength. How can co-ed adult sports leagues be expected to recruit women who have been subtly turned away from competitive athletics for their entire lives? The answer lies in the actions of league directors and community members who must make an active effort to improve the status of women in co-ed sports. Tucson Ultimate’s new policy did not address the root causes of gender inequality in Ultimate Frisbee. It did, however, lead to a two-fold increase in the number of women who participated in League this summer. Most importantly, the policy sparked a muchneeded conversation about how to build an Ultimate Frisbee community that values and respects its women as athletes. — Elizabeth Hannah is a neuroscience and cognitive science junior.

Compton native Grant leads receivers BY justin spears The Dailly Wildcat
TYLER BAKER/The Daily Wildcat
UA Wide receiver SAMAJIE GRANT (10) goes for a catch during a game against Nevada on Aug. 12, 2014. Grant grew up in Compton, Calif., before coming to the UA.
The first two weeks of preseason camp for Arizona football are already in the books, yet there are still question marks surrounding the team. Arizona football head coach Rich Rodriguez is only entering his fourth season at the helm of the Wildcats. The last of the Mike Stoops bunch moved on and Rich Rod’s roster finally contains veteran players as well as underclassmen. Just like any team battling in training camp, the leadership role is won and lost in preparation for another successful season. For Arizona senior wide receiver Samajie Grant, it’s a chance to showcase his improved game on the field, as well as off. “It’s really important to me because we got a lot of young guys who are still trying to learn the plays, and me being out there doing the right thing is a big impact on them,” Grant said. “If I mess up, they’re right behind me, so it messes everything else up.” Grant was put in the doghouse after the 2014 regular season when he ended up in the crosshairs of legal trouble. Grant was cited for suspicion of driving under the influence just hours after Arizona won the Territorial Cup by defeating ASU 42-35 to clinch their first Pac-12 South title. After a two-touchdown performance against the Sun Devils, the receiver did not start in the Pac-12 Conference Championship game against Oregon. Grant’s absence showed, as the Wildcats had just 20 yards in the first half with Anu Solomon and Nick Wilson injured. Grant not being available as a playmaker was apparent in the Pac-12 Championship,
but it wasn’t just the DUI incident that raised eyebrows across the nation. Growing up in Compton, Calif., is not easy, as revealed in the newly released film “Straight Outta Compton,” which highlights the rise of the popular rap group N.W.A., from the streets of Compton to eating dinner in the White House. It turns out that Grant has family members in the movie. “The guy who walked on the bus, Menace, that’s my uncle,” Grant said. Just like N.W.A., Grant has gone from rags to riches. Being in the heart of a city flooded with gangs poses a number of challenges, especially involving gun violence and the use of drugs. Grant took the yellow brick road out of Compton and used a tough mentality to make a name for himself amongst the best in the Pac-12. Still, unless the Wildcats win a national championship, Grant will not be eating with President Barack Obama the same way Eazy-E did. Even so, Grant looks to rise to stardom. “The atmosphere is very different and everyone is focused this season,” Grant said. Grant’s leadership role will be a key factor this year. He will be taking the reigns of the receiving corps with David Richards, Trey Griffey and Nate Phillips—a responsibility Grant hasn’t yet taken on in his tenure at Arizona. A new season in a loaded Pac-12 South means a fresh start for Grant. And if he picks up the slack from the previous season, he could turn “Straight Outta Compton” into straight into the NFL.

The fall semester is a time full of new beginnings and opportunities. Students old and new start with a clean slate in both their schedules and their social lives. The same goes for Arizona Athletics. Teams look to do better than the year before, and coaches work with a new cast of players. Here is a look at the upcoming season for some of the fall sports.
parking.arizona.edu
Football: Arizona football head coach Rich Rodriguez and the Wildcats fell just short of winning last year’s VIZIO Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Ariz., and will be looking to repeat what was a strong 2014 season for the UA. The Wildcats won the Pac-12 South championship and posted a 10-2 regular season record, upsetting then-No. 2 Oregon in October. Arizona earned a spot in the Pac-12 Conference Championship and a rematch against Oregon after defeating ASU. Junior linebacker Scooby Wright III leads a group of key returners for the Wildcats, including redshirt sophomore quarterback Anu Solomon, redshirt junior receiver Cayleb Jones and sophomore running back Nick Wilson. ESPN’s preseason AP Top 25 has the Wildcats sitting at No. 22 in the country. Five other Pac-12 teams cracked the poll, four of which the Wildcats will play this year. Arizona has a tough road schedule this year and will travel to play USC, Stanford and ASU, while UCLA will travel to Tucson on Sept. 26. Oregon, the top preseason Pac-12 team, will not play the Wildcats this regular season. The Wildcats play their first game
at Arizona Stadium when UTSA comes to town on Sept. 3. Soccer: Arizona soccer opened the season with a 4-0 victory over Abilene Christian on Friday. Sophomore Gabi Stoian, who was a 2014 second team All-Pac-12 player as a freshman, scored two goals to get the season started for the Wildcats. The Wildcats also faced Santa Clara on Sunday night and emerged victorious, 2-1. Stoian and sophomore Cece Bilginer each scored a goal. Last year, Arizona posted an 11-8-2 record while making it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Volleyball: Arizona volleyball is set to kick off their regular season this weekend in Dallas. The Wildcats will play at the SMU Invitational and begin by playing SMU on Friday, then continue Saturday against Texas State and Abilene Christian. The Wildcats will be without Madi Kingdon, a two-time All-Pac-12 first team player who graduated last year. The Wildcats will be returning with junior Penina Snuka, who joined Kingdon on the All-Pac-12 team. The Wildcats finished last season with a 24-10 regular season record and reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Volleyball head coach Dave Rubio will lead the Wildcats in his 24th season. Arizona will play its first home games in McKale Center when they host the Arizona Invitational on Sept. 4 and 5. — Follow Kyle Hansen @k_hansen42

Soccer opens season with pair of wins BY RYAN KELPAIRE The Daily Wildcat
The soccer season is underway as Arizona got off to a strong start over the weekend with a 4-0 win over Abilene Christian on Friday night before beating Santa Clara 2-1 on Sunday. In the season opener against Abilene Christian, both teams were sloppy in the first ten minutes or so, but the Wildcats got on the board in the 15th minute. Sophomore Gabi Stoian lofted a free kick from 40 feet into the box, which was then headed in by sophomore Cali Crisler. It was Crisler’s first career goal as a Wildcat. The Wildcats attempted nine shots in the first half but only managed to find the back of the net once. The second half was a different story. In the 53rd minute, senior Hannah Wong crossed the ball to a wide open Stoian, who tapped the ball in from the center of the box to extend the lead to 2-0. Ten minutes later, Stoian weaved her way through a few defenders and scored from 15 yards out to put Arizona up 3-0. The barrage continued after senior Hayley Estopare headed one in on a flip throw from freshman Jessica Nelson to make it a 4-0 game.
The offense, which manufactured 22 shots, certainly clicked, but the defense’s performance was equally as strong. “Our outside backs were out there early and really preventing anything from coming in,” said senior Sheaffer Skadsen. “We were really able to deny a lot of stuff trying to trickle in.” Arizona held Abilene Christian to just two shots in the entire game, none of which were on net. Though it was a relatively easy win for Arizona, it did come at the expense of the team’s health. Lexe Selman was forced to leave the game with an injury in the 12th minute. Crisler had to leave the game four minutes later, just a minute after scoring her first career goal. Stoian, the team’s leading scorer last season, was also dealing with an ankle injury of her own. The plan before the game was to limit her minutes, but after Selman’s injury, it forced her into action sooner than anticipated. “I didn’t know how much I was going to play,” Stoian said after the game. Head coach Tony Amato echoed Stoian. “We were trying to see how the game would go, and she hasn’t been at 100 percent at training, so we’re going to

August 24-25, 2015 • Sports when Santa Clara earned a penalty kick. However, goalkeeper Lainey Burdett got in front of the ball and saved the Broncos’ shot from going in. The tie lasted for six more minutes until Arizona’s Cece Bilginer provided the go-ahead and decisive goal. It was the first career goal for the sophomore. “It’s an amazing feeling,” Bilginer said. “It just feels so good to put the ball in the back of the net and help the team out.” Bilginer’s goal proved to be the game changer. Despite a few attacks on goal, Arizona’s defense shut down Santa Clara over the final 20 minutes, and the Wildcats were able to escape the first weekend with an unblemished record. “We started out rough, so to be able to recover from that, and fight, and battle and finish the PK ... I started looking at the chances that were created,” Amato said. “We created more chances there that I thought were dangerous down the stretch, and we were able to pull it out.”

ease her in,” Amato said. Stoian finished with two goals and an assist, but admitted she’s still feeling the effects of her injury. The injuries to Selman and Crisler are much more concerning. “It doesn’t look good,” Amato said about Selman’s injury. “She buckled and went down, so you’d think it’s a bad knee injury.” Arizona was already dealing with injuries, and these two additional setbacks have put the Wildcats in a tough spot moving forward. “I’m very worried about it,” Amato said. “We already had some people out from the team anyway being injured, and anytime you lose personnel, it’s not fun.” Arizona battled through those injuries on Sunday in a close victory over Santa Clara. The Wildcats fell behind early when the Broncos’ Jenna Holtz scored in the second minute. Santa Clara held the lead for most of the first half until Stoian delivered the equalizer 35 minutes into the half. The two teams entered halftime tied at 1-1. It looked like Arizona might fall behind again in the 63rd minute

Football exits camp with top-25 ranking BY ezra amacher The Daily Wildcat
Arizona football was awarded an early seal of approval from the national media about 24 hours after the Wildcats ended their 16-day preseason camp. The defending Pac-12 South champions will open up the season with an AP Top 25 ranking next to its name for the first time since 1999, as the UA was tabbed the No. 22 team in the country on Sunday. The Wildcats, who have returning sophomore Anu Solomon at quarterback and All-American Scooby Wright III at linebacker, are one of six Pac12 Conference schools ranked in the preseason poll. Rival ASU is ranked No. 15 in the country, while Oregon leads the conference with the No. 7 overall ranking. Preseason expectations have not been this high for Arizona football in over a decade. The Wildcats’ Saturday scrimmage gave the coaching staff a better indication as to whether or not the UA will meet those expectations. “It was probably a typical end of camp scrimmage where there is some pretty good intensity,” Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez said. “We got about 95-100 plays in. There was a little bit of heat so we were tested a little bit, which is good. I’ll have a better idea after I watch the film.” The highlight of the scrimmage came on a 50-yard touchdown pass from Solomon to junior wide receiver Nate Phillips. Solomon and the first-team offense had their way for most of the contest. That could be taken as either a good or bad sign, depending on whose perspective. Arizona is used to relying on its fastpaced offense to be its strongest attribute. Now that Rodriguez has a returning quarterback roaming the pocket, the offense could take another leap forward. “I think, all around, [Solomon] has gotten more comfortable,” wide receiver Cayleb Jones said in a statement. “He has become a much better player, even off the field. He is tougher physically and mentally. He forces us to learn the different routes and coverages so we become better as an offensive unit.” Arizona should also be solid on the ground, as sophomore running back Nick Wilson returns from a freshman season in which he ran for 1,375 yards and 16 touchdowns. Wilson’s average of 105.8 yards per game set Arizona’s freshman rushing record. The success of both Solomon and Wilson will depend heavily on the stability of Arizona’s offensive line. The position group took a few hits over
the summer; first, guard Jordan Poland was dismissed from the team in July after being arrested for trafficking stolen property. Then, in early August, center Carter Wood was ruled out for the season with a chronic right foot injury. Wood was expected to be Arizona’s starter at center this season. Cayman Bundage, a senior who started 12 games last season, will likely replace Wood at center. The offensive line also adds California transfer Freddie Tagaloa, a former top recruit. “Part of it is we’re looking to see who the best five guys are,” offensive line coach Jim Michalczik said. “We want to get the best five guys on the field.” Arizona will field a young defensive group, particularly in the secondary. The Wildcats lost three secondary starters over the spring, including Jared Tevis, who was second on the team with 99.5 tackles, and Jourdon Grandon, the team leader in interceptions. Replacing that level of production could wind up as Arizona’s toughest challenge in the season’s early going, but returning free safety Jamar Allah voiced some cautionary optimism following the scrimmage. “I think there is a lot of room for improvement,” Allah said. “We have to fine tune things before the first game. I think we have done much better than I thought we would do with having a lot of new guys coming in.” The Wildcats do have one of the Pac12’s better safeties in senior Will Parks, as well as a budding sophomore in Cam Denson. In addition, former wide receiver DaVonte’ Neal transitioned to the secondary over spring, providing more immediate depth. Then, of course, there’s Scooby. The reigning Chuck Bednarik Award winner—given to the top defender in college football—is arguably as valuable as any player in college football. Wright led Arizona last year in almost every defensive category, including 163 total tackles. Even if Wright’s numbers drop from last year, Wright could provide more of an impact for a somewhat-rebuilt defense. Wright, already listed at 246 pounds, looks to have added even more muscle over the offseason. If he and his cohorts can compliment an explosive offense, there’s a chance Arizona could find itself snugged in the top 25 all season.

Former receiver Neal boosts secondary
Tyler Baker/The Daily Wildcat
ARIZONA’S DaVonte’ Neal tries for a catch during a game against Cal on Sept. 20, 2014. 49-45. Neal switched from wide reciever to cornerback over the offseason.
DaVonte’ Neal, a former blue-chip recruit, readies for his new position this fall at cornerback. Neal joins a young secondary who will need him to contribute immediately
BY ezra amacher The Daily Wildcat
When Arizona’s offense takes the field for the first time next week, one of the contingent’s biggest names will be watching from the sideline. DaVonte’ Neal’s days of catching passes from quarterback Anu Solomon are over. The former Notre Dame transfer is now firmly a cornerback. Neal, who started 10 games at wide receiver for the Wildcats last season, made the switch to cornerback in February after expressing interest in flipping from offense to defense to head coach Rich Rodriguez. Neal redshirted the 2013 season after leaving Notre Dame for Arizona and
had an underwhelming year in his lone full season as wide receiver. He finished the season with just 214 yards and two touchdowns. The move to cornerback provides a different type of pressure on Neal; instead of being asked to complete breakout plays, his goal is to prevent them. After six months of training, including the past two weeks of fall camp, Neal says he is ready for the new challenge. “I feel a lot more comfortable,” Neal said. “Coming off spring ball, I got a lot more knowledge for the game and for defense. It was just getting back into the football aspect of it. There’s still a lot for me to learn, but I think I’m learning it at a good pace.” That is welcome news for the Wildcats, considering that the secondary must replace four defensive backs who combined for eight interceptions. Arizona adds a handful of newcomers to compliment Neal.
“They’re young,” Neal said. “It’s their first year in the system so they’re going to be a little nervous when they step in the game. There’s going to be a lot of jitters, but I think they’re doing a pretty good job right now picking up the material and going on from there.” The addition of Neal should ensure Arizona not only greater depth at the position, but also experience. Neal frequently played cornerback at Chaparral High School, where he was twice named Arizona Gatorade Player of the Year. The previous time at the position allowed Neal to make an “easy transition” from one line of scrimmage to the other. “I’m having to flip my hips a lot more,” Neal said. “It’s not an adjustment I couldn’t make.” By deciding to switch positions way back in February, Neal had extra time to regain the idiosyncrasies of the newer position, especially the change from running forwards to backwards.
Neal spent most of the summer training in Tucson, working with teammates like Cam Denson and Jamar Allah as well as the strength coaches. “We basically [got] our whole defensive back group together [and went] through drills,” Neal said. “We’d make sure everybody is flipping their hips, getting their eyes back to the ball, things like that.” The chemistry that the group forged in the hot summer months will soon be tested on the field. If one thing’s certain about Neal’s shift to cornerback, it’s that he’s ready to get going for good. “First game is in two weeks and we haven’t played football in I don’t know how many days,” Neal said. “It’s been too long, especially for us.”
