UA and TEP create plans for 100% renewable energy BY JAKE TOOLE @JakeToole4
The way this campus uses energy could change drastically in the next few years. Multiple University of Arizona offices collaborated with Tucson Electric Power to create a plan to shift the campus to 100% purchased renewable energy. According to Trevor Ledbetter, the director of the UA Office of Sustainability, the plan ensures 100% of the campus’ purchased electricity for its grid plan will come from renewable sources, but not total electricity on campus. “The university does produce ... approximately 40% of its own electricity using traditional fossil fuel resources,” Ledbetter said. “So 60% of our total electricity use will come from renewable energy resources, but 100% of our grid purchase resources will come from renewable resources.” Ledbetter said that the reason the plan still states 100% renewable energy is because it will completely address one category of emissions, Scope 2 Emissions, at the UA. “Scope 2 Emissions are indirect emissions which result from your purchases of utilities from the grid,” Ledbetter said. “For us, that’s inclusive of steam, electricity etc. For us, we only purchase electricity from the grid.
So, through the deal with TEP, we’re offsetting 100% of the carbon emissions in that space by purchasing only renewable energy from TEP.” Joseph Barrios, the supervisor of media relations and regulatory communications at TEP, said that in the deal with the UA, they will supply solar and wind power to UA through its own facilities, which will completely drive down Scope 2 Emissions on campus. According to Barrios, the deal will be facilitated through the UA paying a fixed “green energy charge,” for the sustainable energy they will provide. Barrios said that some of the energy they will be delivering to the campus will come from two new sustainable projects. “TEP will dedicate some of the power from two new renewable energy projects to serve the UA: a wind farm in New Mexico and a solar plus storage system southeast of Tucson,” Barrios said. “TEP already provides electric service to the UA using both traditional and renewable resources.” Barrios said the wind farm is called the Oso Grande Wind Project and constructions will start later this year. He also said the solar power system is called the Wilmot Energy Center and that its construction will start in January. They both are expected to be completed in 2020. Chris Kopach, the assistant vice president of facilities management at UA, said the deal with TEP came out
of a review and survey for the whole campus, which was looking to see how the UA could improve on sustainability. According to Kopach, a company called CustomerFirst Renewables offered them a traditional power purchase agreement deal, but then conversations were made with TEP to create a new kind of deal with them. “The talks led to further talks, which led to, ‘Let’s see if we can partner in a collaborative fashion and come up with a renewable credits program,’” Kopach said. Kopach said the deal quickly made sense, as TEP already had the two renewable energy facilities in the works for its overall customer base customers and plans, which then coincided perfectly with the deal. “So, we looked at the project, we negotiated at many times, we looked at the costs, driving down costs and utilities, and this just really came together nicely over the last several months,” Kopach said. According to Kopach, the deal was possible because of the strong leadership that surrounded it, including TEP, the university, the Office of Sustainability, the UA’s chief financial officer Lisa Rulney and President Robert C. Robbins. Kopach said that the deal excites a lot of people who have worked hard on it. “It was a lot of time and effort — a lot of hours put into this, and we’re are all very excited to be quite frankly one of the first universities of our size who can
say we’ve eliminated 100% of our Scope 2 Emissions,” Kopach said. “That will be in basically a year and four months. That’s a major accomplishment and we’re all very excited about this project.” According to Ledbetter, there is still a part of the deal that has to be approved. “The green energy piece of the deal has not yet been approved,” Ledbetter said. “It will go before the Arizona Corporation Commission, where it will be vetted to ensure that the agreement does not benefit the University of Arizona at the expense of other ratepayers under TEP. We’ve gone through the necessary processes with TEP to ensure that this is not the case, and both the UA and TEP expect the ACC to approve the deal in the next three to six months.” Ledbetter said that he believes that deal is an important step to take against the growing danger of climate change. “It is important for the UA to lead in this space, as it is critical for our society to transition to a low or zero-carbon economy in the coming decades and to do so as quickly as possible to avert the most devastating effects of climate change and global warming,” Ledbetter said. “Tucson is already the third fastest warming city in the United States, so now is the time to act and to show other institutions of higher education how relationships with local utilities can be leveraged for more impactful action.”

NEWS | STORMY WEATHER
All variables considered, monsoons are on time BY MIKAYLA KABER @KaberMikayla
Monsoon season here in the southwest may have arrived a little late, but it’s not as dry as Tucson locals may think. There are many variables that contribute to the storms this time of year. According to the National Weather Service, official monsoon season begins on June 15 and ends on Sept. 30. But Michael Crimmins, climate science specialist and professor in the Department of Soil, Water and Environmental Science, said that precipitation and humidity don’t normally show up until about July 4 every year. “In Arizona, the North American monsoon system always shows up,” Crimmins said. “It’s kind of like a finely-oiled machine and can be subject to getting off-kilter in very subtle ways. And this year, it just so happens to be one of those years where it showed up a little bit later and has been overall weaker.” Cuyler Diggs, meteorologist for KGUN9, attributed the late start of monsoon season to the wetter and cooler-than-average winter season here in Arizona. May was much cooler and rainier than average this year, which pushed back the monsoon season. “That means that the jet stream was further south over us, into May,” Crimmins said. “And typically, what should be happening in May is that the jet stream should be moving north, and then this high pressure system comes up out of Mexico and it gets hot. That pattern typically starts in May and moves into June, and then by July the high pressure system is over us and even north of us, and it starts to drag moisture in from the south.” The National Weather Service’s record of rainfall from the past years show that since about 2013, summer monsoon seasons have been abnormal in the grand scheme of data. Rainfall has been ranging from the higher side between 6.0 inches and 8.7 inches. “In Tucson, I think that we have been — because we have had such good summers, the past couple — you start to psychologically expect that to happen again. I fell for that,” Crimmins said. “Once you go back in the records and look at the past monsoon seasons, there’s quite a few of them that look like this one.” Although the season has been relatively dry, the effects of it are not as drastic because of the wet and cool winter. According to Crimmins, although fires in July in Arizona are not unprecedented, there is higher risk for them across the state when there is a lack of monsoons. There are a lot of variables on both a global and local scale that contribute to the monsoon behavior. “It’s really hard to peg monsoon[s] because, statistically, there’s so much variability from year to year that it’s harder to

observe change.” said Zack Guido, a research scientist at the Institute of the Environment and School of Natural Resources and the Environment. When looking at influences on a local scale, there is a rise of urban life within the city of Tucson. “In Tucson, we have a micro-climate due to our urban sprawl,” Diggs said. “So what we’ve noticed over the last few years is our temperatures are climbing, but what we really notice is our overnight low temperatures do not go as low. That can be attributed to our urban sprawl because when you continue to build roads and buildings, you know, that’s asphalt, concrete. All these things that collect and reflect heat.” “What happens in Siberia, what happens with typhoons, what happens with the Arctic sea ice, there’s all these interacting parts we don’t quite have stitched together,” Crimmins said. “We know they all fit together, but we are not exactly sure how they fit together.”

NEWS | DACA CHANGES
Tuition changes for non-resident immigrant students BY PRIYA JANDU @Priya_J11
The Arizona Board of Regents decided on Aug. 22 to expand availability for the tuition rate currently paid by Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival students. The board expanded the tuition rate that DACA students currently receive, which is 50% more expensive than the rate for in-state students, to immigrants who are currently not living in the country legally but graduated from an Arizona high school. The previous board policy required that a student needed to be lawfully present in Arizona to be eligible for the altered tuition rate, criteria not required by state or federal law. The non-resident rate only applies to tuition for undergraduate students. The change occurred due to the federal government no longer accepting new DACA applications, according to the executive summary of the revision. “All three state universities are governed by the [Arizona] Board of Regents, and they had a tuition policy that was already in place called the non-resident tuition rate for Arizona high school graduates,” Dean of Undergraduate Admissions Kasey Urquidez said. “That is the policy that was already out there and in place, and so that was allowing students who graduated from an Arizona high school and spent at least three years there the opportunity to have a special rate.” Urquidez said that official DACA students at the University of Arizona have received the lowered rate for their tuition, which was set by the board in 2015. “They were not required to pay the

non-resident rate, which is higher — they were eligible to pay the resident [and] a half, 150% rate of a resident,” Urquidez said. Now, students who graduated from an Arizona high school and attended it for at least three years are also eligible. “The court decision came down that they [DACA students] were no longer eligible for in-state tuition, but the [Arizona] Board of Regents had already set the policy — that non-resident tuition rate — in 2015,” Urquidez said. “The students who had graduated from an Arizona high school became eligible for 150%. A lot of them had been on this 150% for the last year and a half since that court ruling changed. They
already had this. Students who may not have documentation now qualify.” The Arizona Daily Star reported that the change is effective immediately. In an interview with KJZZ on Aug. 27, Gov. Doug Ducey said he supported the board’s decision. “I think somebody that graduates from an Arizona high school is an Arizona kid, and I want to see them have Arizona opportunities in front of them,” Ducey said in the interview. “... We need to continue to follow the law, but we also want to make certain that Arizona high school graduates don’t have to leave our state to pursue opportunity.” The Star also reported that Arizona’s
attorney general, Mark Brnovich, supports President Donald Trump in his efforts to dissolve the DACA program. In an instance where DACA did end up being fully rescinded, Urquidez said that UA will try to do whatever it can to help its DACA students. “We’re governed by the Board of Regents and our state laws,” Urquidez said. “UA itself can’t make some of these decisions. We have to work with our board ... as well as state laws to do whatever we can. In that situation, of course, we’re going to try to do whatever we can to support our students, but we have to abide by policy and state laws and federal laws.”

INVESTIGATIVE | GROCERY COSTS
Food for thought: Higher than average prices found at on-campus markets BY JAKE TOOLE @DailyWildcat
Students living on campus at the University of Arizona may find shopping for their own groceries hard. Prices of food items, such as Oreos, peanut butter, granola and Top Ramen at on-campus markets were priced higher than when they were found at grocery stores such as Safeway and Fry’s. The prices of 50 items were analyzed and compared between the three on-campus markets, Park Avenue Market, U-Mart and Highland Market and the grocery stores Safeway and Fry’s. Of the 50 food items that were compared, there was an average of a 29.80% increase on prices for products sold at the campus markets than the same items sold at Fry’s and an average of 38.82% increase of prices compared to Safeway. A dozen eggs at the Highland Market costs $3.59, while at Fry’s, a dozen eggs costs $1.99. Folger’s coffee at the Park Avenue Market costs $8.79 but the same product at Safeway costs $5.99. Todd Millay, the senior director of the Arizona Student Unions, said in an email response that the reason the prices at the UA are higher than a grocery store chain such as Safeway is because they do not have the volume to buy inventory at the cheaper prices of chain grocery stores. He also said the Student Unions’ large facilities come with many other costs that contribute to the higher prices at the UA markets. “Our electric bill, IT needs, facilities costs, etc. are much higher than a grocery store,” Millay said. “In order to cover those costs, our prices in certain products, particularly prepackaged goods, will naturally be higher. For non pre-packaged foods, we are commonly at fair market prices.” “The reason why there may be price discrepancies between PSU, Highland market or U-Mart is still debatable,” Millay said. “Currently, those operations finances run independently from one another, so our managers have flexibility to adjust pricing to some extent to ensure they have a sustainable operation.” Michaela Davenport, the student director of Campus Pantry, said the higher prices found at the UA market does affect students, especially those living on campus. Campus Pantry is a student-run organization that offers free groceries to supplement the needs of students, faculty and staff on campus. “I think it definitely affects students, especially students, maybe, who have difficulty obtaining transportation or something like that, and sort of depend on these close-to-campus resources,” Davenport said. Spencer Ciammitti, a sophomore studying
molecular and cellular biology who lives at Árbol De La Vida, said, “I get most of my groceries off campus just due to the price gouging. I don’t want to overpay, and saving money is a major goal of mine in college.” Davenport said the abnormally high prices potentially have an effect on many of the students on campus who already struggle with food insecurity. The 2016 Campus Climate Booklet said “52% of undergraduate and 29% of graduate respondents indicated that they often or always ate unhealthy or nutritiously unbalanced meals because healthier options were too expensive or inaccessible,” and according to a survey created by the Hope Center for College, Community, and Justice, 41% of four-year university students experienced food insecurity. The USDA defines food insecurity as “a lack of consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life.” However, Davenport said that for college students, food insecurity can manifest in many different ways. “It’s not necessarily about a constant state of hunger, right?” she said. “It’s not like all the time you’re starving or anything like that, but it could be at the end of each month before you get your last paycheck for the month and you’ve paid all your rent and your utilities and stuff, you don’t quite have enough money to make it stretch or you have to really make meals last.” UA is considered to be located in a “food desert,” Davenport explained. Food deserts are areas that are not accessible to fresh groceries and therefore add to the overall food insecurity of those living there. “If you think about where is Fry’s and where is Safeway, not close enough to walk, not really anyway,” Davenport said. A lot of industries on campus, not just food, seem to have higher prices than those same industries off campus, Davenport added. She said that some housing units are charging $1,000 per person per month. “So, I think businesses and stuff close to the university think that being close to the university, ‘Oh we can charge these prices,’ but I don’t think for a lot of low-income college students who attend this university, I don’t think that is fair or equitable,” Davenport said. Lucas Quilter, assistant administrative director of SafeRide and a junior studying political science, said that SafeRide, an ASUAsponsored student-run carpool-ride share program, is meant to be a solution to the lack of accessible and safe transportation on campus. Quilter said that SafeRide’s goal is to ensure that students on campus know they have someone to call when they don’t feel safe, or even if they just don’t want to spend money on other ride share programs such as Uber or Lyft.
GRAPHIC BY AMBER SOLAND | THE DAILY WILDCAT
“That’s where SafeRide comes in,” Quilter said. “We are free and unlimited. You can use us however many times you want to go within our two-mile boundary to get to restaurants, shopping centers, El Con, Walmart, Target [and] any of that kind of stuff. We help people who don’t want to pay $5, $10, $15 in Uber charges to get in and around the hot spots of Tucson.” Grocery stores are included in the two-mile boundary that SafeRide drives to, according to Quilter. “If you are trying to pay $6 for a carton of eggs, we can do that for you” Quilter said. “Or if you are trying to pay $2 for a carton of eggs we can also bring you there.” Davenport said that while she would like to know why these prices at the UA markets are higher than prices at other grocery stores, the Student Union has worked a lot with Campus Pantry to supply food to students in need. She said they donated the space that Campus Pantry currently uses in the union and provide produce from the rooftop gardens, among other things.
While these higher prices found at campus markets should be talked about and lowering them could help students, lowering them will not fix food insecurity on campus, Davenport said. “Food insecurity does not exist because the high prices charged at the Student Union,” Davenport said. “Food insecurity exists because college is expensive, because rent is outrageous, because healthcare is ridiculous, because all these other factors. So, I think this is a symptom that helps perpetuate food insecurity for sure, I don’t think it’s helpful that we charge high prices here, but also I don’t think that’s necessarily the main thing we should be tackling.” Davenport said she believes the true solution to food insecurity lies in institutional change.

’Cats get ready for another whiteout BY JACK COOPER @jackwcooper23
Do you remember where you were on Sept. 20, 2014? If you’re an Arizona fan, then chances are you were probably at Arizona Stadium to see one of the wildest games in Pac-12 history or watching it on TV. When Arizona took on University of California —Berkeley five years ago, most people expected a shootout — a back and forth game totaling near 100 points and well over 1,000 yards of offense. Well, that’s what happened, but getting there wasn’t the easiest thing for the Wildcats football team that eventually went on to win 10 games and make a New Year’s Eve bowl game. Arizona was trailing 31-13 to Cal going into the fourth quarter in the first ever “white-out” game at Arizona Stadium. But that’s when everything changed. The Wildcats would go on
to score 36 points in the final quarter, capped off by a 47-yard hail mary pass from Anu Solomon to Austin Hill just as time expired. Solomon finished the game with 520 total passing yards and 5 touchdowns. That mark of 520 still stands as the most passing yards in a single game by an Arizona quarterback. Why does all of this matter five years later? Because coming up this week, Arizona faces off against Texas Tech University, which plays a similar style of football as Cal did. It’s another September matchup and it’s another “White-Out.” Many of the same storylines heading into the game this weekend are similar to the ones five years ago, and Head Coach Kevin Sumlin talked about what makes Texas Tech so dangerous. “They’re playing really well right now. Defensively, they’ve been a more complete front and they move around and have great speed,” Sumlin

said. “And offensively, they have a quarterback who’s completing 71% of his passes and thrown 5 touchdowns and only one pick.” Texas Tech quarterback Alan Bowman likes to throw the ball around the field. He threw for 2,638 yards last season, and in the two games he’s played in this year, he’s up to 696 passing yards. Bowman also likes to get that ball out to many different receivers. Last game, Texas Tech had 12 different receivers make a catch and, at the game before, they had 11. Expect plenty of deep plays down the field against an Arizona secondary that gave up 41 points to NAU and also had no answer for Hawai’i’s Cedric Byrd II. When asked about his defense and their performance against NAU Sumlin said: “You’ve got a little bit of everything [big mistakes and little mistakes] and it was a tale of two halves. We had some
other guys out there, we got some starters but we had a communication problem. Communication between some players was an issue. We had some guys in and out of positions and some rotational problems.” The game will be high scoring, fastpaced and has the potential to have a combined final score over 100, despite Texas Tech only giving up a combined 13 points in their first two games to Missouri State and University of Texas at El Paso. They’re facing a different offensive animal in Arizona that is No. 11 in the country, averaging 51.5 points per game this season. Kickoff for the second ever “WhiteOut” game is set for 7:30 p.m. at Arizona Stadium against Texas Tech, and the game will be aired live on ESPN.

ARTS & LIFE | TUCSON ARTIST
Stick with Audrey, she’ll bring color into your life Artist Audrey De La Cruz and her husband returned to Tucson to rediscover their passion for creating. Their self-run business has been spreading throughout the community BY BRIANNON WILFONG @BriannonWilfong
From trendy stickers that people can place on their Hydro Flasks to colorful art prints and cards for people to send their friends, Audrey De La Cruz has turned her personal artwork into crowd favorites with her self-run business, Annotated Audrey Art. Hailing from Los Angeles, De La Cruz was working with English teachers and international students as a program representative at UCLA. However, she wanted a new work landscape to pursue her passion for art and drawing rather than working a desk job. De La Cruz and her husband would later come to Tucson for the artsy community, where her art would prosper. “I remembered from my time going to school here that there is just a really strong arts community and a really strong support of local businesses and local artists,” Larry Andrade, De La Cruz’s husband, said. “We had been talking about that while we were in LA and sort of stressed out by our normal jobs, how, ‘Oh, we want to do something else.’ She wanted to pursue more of the art and it just seemed like a good fit.” Since moving back to Tucson, De La Cruz has turned her focus to being a full time artist. She takes her sketches she does in her freetime or drawings/paintings that she has created and turns them into prints to sell. De La Cruz and her husband started Annotated Audrey Art in 2016. The couple runs the art printing business themselves. They spend most of their day printing, cutting and packaging all of the different items that Annotated Audrey Art sells. Some orders exceed 60-250 cards a week, making their days busy. De La Cruz is the brains behind the artwork and Andrade is the man behind the printing, deliveries and making sure all of the stores
“
that carry Annotated Audrey Art are stocked for customers. Most of De La Cruz’s artwork is inspired by the desert landscape, the colors of the various plants and cacti capture her imagination. Her signature is using vibrant, pastel colors and whimsical paintbrush strokes in the drawings. Her artwork also includes inspirational phrases such as “happiness blooms within,” “the future is diverse” and “bloom where you are planted.” “I make a lot of stuff that’s very Tucson and very local-based,” De La Cruz said. “I’m just inspired by everything … I go to the mall and I see some colors together on a shirt and I’m like, ‘Hell yeah, that would be a cool mountain scene,’ just experiencing life through my eyes.” De La Cruz’s mission through her art business is to keep the artwork she creates as accessible as possible. Accessible art means keeping the prices low for customers as well as keeping the artwork and phrases appropriate for all audiences.
farmer’s market seller, Kelley Costales of Purple Sky Incense, is a fan of De La Cruz’s work. “I have Audrey’s stickers and cards in my booth because, well I love them! And of course, I’m not alone. Everyone seems to connect with her colorful vibrant designs,” Costales said. “I also have the highest respect for them as business people and look to them as an example of how to do things the right way. I admire them for finding a way to pursue their dreams with integrity and being very successful at it.” Costales sells Annotated Audrey Art pieces at pop-up shops with De La Cruz’s full support. “I did a fundraiser last month for a local dog rescue and [Annotated Audrey Art] generously donated a number of pieces to it,” Costales said. “They’ve also done their own fundraising for local shelter animals and I love that they are compassionate and charitable also.” COURTESY AUDREY DE LA CRUZ| THE DAILY WILDCAT De La Cruz and her husband THE ART OF AUDREY De La Cruz. founder of Annotated Audrey, has use their business to donate become popular among the local Tucson Community. to charities like those around Tucson. The money that they make is always going back into their business as well to expand slowly. De La Cruz finds it surreal to see her artwork in all of the local stores and to see them on people’s water bottles around Tucson. “I made that, I remember when I was drawing that on my iPad … ”De La Cruz said “It feels really great and it doesn’t ever go away, that feeling of ‘I cant believe someone liked it enough to buy it and stick it on their bottle forever.’ Annotated Audrey Art has new items coming soon this month. De La Cruz posts about new collections or inspirations to her social media accounts, especially her Instagram account. Her stickers, art prints and cards are available online on her website.
I make a lot of stuff that’s very Tucson and very local-based,” AUDREY DE LA CRUZ “I think accessible art is something that doesn’t offend people … our main focus with our stuff is to provide the highest quality that we can at an affordable price,” De La Cruz said. Annotated Audrey Art started at the UA Farmer’s Market but has since moved onto selling their artwork in 15 local businesses all around Tucson. Stickers and cards are being sold in stores such as Bookmans Entertainment Exchange, Pop-Cycle and the UA Bookstore. “Basically, any place [of business] that I think is a good fit for my work, I see if they will carry my work,” De La Cruz said. Fellow farmer’s market businesses also sell De La Cruz’s artwork at their booths. One

OPINION | STUDENTS RIGHTS
All students rights and freedoms must be protected BY KAYLEIGH COOK @DailyWildcat
I
n the news today, we hear about three things: Donald Trump, the Democratic primary campaign and never-ending bipartisan wars within Congress. Our focus is largely on topics that will affect our democracy on a greater scale, but lately our guaranteed rights and freedoms have been routinely violated by the very government sworn to uphold them. During the last week of August, nine international students at Arizona State University were prevented from re-entering the United States from China at Los Angeles International Airport by Customs and Border Patrol. The students went back to China, where many are pursuing their degree online at ASU. ASU President Michael Crow was both confused and angered by the actions of CBP, and wrote to the U.S. State Department as well as the Department of Homeland Security. His letter outlined his concerns and demanded answers from the government, including an explanation of CBP’s “standard procedures” and a way that ASU can aid foreign students when they are entering the U.S. In the letter, President Crow states that every one of his students had the “necessary documentation” to reenter the United States, and points out that the students were forced to either buy their own tickets back home or face a five-year ban from the US. This constitutional crisis has since been seemingly swept under the rug by the U.S. government. President Crow’s letters have received no response from either Secretary of State Mike Pompeo or any officials at DHS. According to The State Press, CBP released a vague response: “The Chinese students were deemed inadmissible to the United States based on information discovered during the CBP inspection”, which did not answer, or even address, the concerns outlined by President Crow. I reached out to the Office of the President at ASU. “Unfortunately we do not have any updates or further comments,’’ said Jerry Gonzales of the Media Relations
Department in an email. Oddly enough, something very similar happened to a Palestinian freshman at Harvard this year. According to the Washington Post, Ismail B. Ajjawi was prevented from entering the U.S. and had his student visa revoked on the grounds that “an immigration officer claimed she ‘found people posting political points of view that oppose the U.S.’” when going through the student’s electronics, despite the fact that Ajjawi had not made any of these posts himself. In the face of growing social media outrage, the student was allowed back into the U.S. in time to begin classes for the fall semester. As a student at the University of Arizona, I am both outraged and terrified by both of these instances. We, the United States, have been violating rights that members of our government take an oath to uphold, and no one seems to care. The ASU students had their Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights bypassed with absolutely no apology, acknowledgement of wrongdoing or even rationalization of the act. Our First Amendment, which has been defended in countless Supreme Court cases, was taken away from a Palestinian student despite the fact that he did not make any of the “opposing” posts. Speaking out about things the U.S. government does is a right that everyone in the country has, and is central to the health of our democracy. If the U.S. wants to continue to advertise itself as a beacon of democracy, it has a very long way to go. Our rights, human rights, cannot be taken away from people just because they are not from America. The xenophobia that currently exists in our government should be disconcerting for every citizen, especially those who are going to inherit the animosity that it creates. The UA has hundreds of international students who diversify our student body and bring new viewpoints and culture to our campus. The thought that CBP could prevent them from coming back — and that our top diplomats could turn a blind eye to the situation — chills me to the bone. Democracy is not America’s object to behold, but rather, it is an ideal to uphold, and we cannot dictate what humans deserves human rights. — Kayleigh Cook is a freshman studying politics and philosphy-economics-law

OPINION | PUBLIC TRANSPORT
Tucson Transit needs to be reevaluated BY NATHAN GOSNELL @DailyWildcat
T
ucson seems to be upping its transit development around town. Its grant was expanded, roads are seemingly being repaved more and more and other construction projects have become a mainstay when driving around. Most of these projects focus on the roadways themselves, designed for car-based transit. They center around expanding access for cars and an already car-centric roadway. There are a few key issues with this, especially in a city like Tucson, which already faces urban sprawl and lacking public transit. If transit remains car-focused and based around the downtown area, Tucson will fall increasingly into the pit many other cities, especially western ones, have fallen into. Suburbanization has already occurred, and Tucson is already in many ways faced with urban sprawl. Many Americans are still met with the necessity of car usage, often due to urban planning and its influences on resident behaviors. Many people, especially Tucson residents, are presented with suburban areas that lack access to public transit or are simply too inconvenient to reasonably consider walking, biking or taking the bus. Sun Tran ridership even decreased 8.1% from December 2017 to the following year, according to their website. Instead, areas where transit has improved the most are places where people who are already privileged and rely less on public transportation typically frequent and live, like the streetcar that runs in the downtown area. Projects like the streetcar, while promoted for their economic bolstering of downtown, fail to acknowledge the large sum of Tucsonans who are unable to access it. Attention has been focused on the economic outputs that occur for downtown, where many locals don’t live or commute to. Those who would benefit most from low-cost public transit, such as lower income families and those further out from the core, are left out of the plan for projects around campus, like the streetcar. There are social implications to the lack of investment in public transit as well. Those who are privileged enough to afford a car, including maintenance, gas and so forth, are the same people who would be less likely to take public transit except in heavily urbanized areas. In Tucson, this also carries weight due to our extreme climate, leaving
many people without cars or reliable transit at the whim of excessive heat while biking or walking. While infrastructure for biking has improved within recent years, the city still has many ill-equipped or dangerous roads for riders due to small bike lanes and a lack of protection outside the city center. Pedestrian deaths have also increased within recent years from 160 pedestrians killed in 2013 to 245 killed in 2018 according to a KVOA report. There a few key issues with the carbased strategy of transit planning. Most importantly, it fails to focus attention on serious social problems and instead misdirects funds into projects that won’t generally benefit the average person of the city. They lack an equitable approach that promotes and sustains public transit for lower income residents, especially when funds are channeled into projects largely not usable by the common resident (i.e. the streetcar). Furthermore, it fails to see the dire need for better transit planning, especially a divergence away from cars and a promotion of alternative transportation. While people may not have the access and means now to switch primarily to public transit, it is possible, as shown by the city center’s increasing infrastructure. It is climate denialism to still rely on car-focused design strategies, and by refusing to promote the development of equitable alternative transit, issues of environmental sustainability are exacerbated, especially in a city situated in an extreme climate. While the city does a lot of good in terms of transit, and it was one of the top 50 urbanized areas with most transit travel in 2016 and 2017, according to the American Public Transportation Association, there is still a distinct gap between the wider Tucson area and downtown, with the average household owning 2 cars and only 2.6% of commutes being through public transit according to the U.S. Census Tucson’s placement as a growing urban center leaves a responsibility for providing equitable access to public transit. Bus lanes are mainly non-existent, bike infrastructure is still minimal and many residents find themselves back in their cars and stuck in traffic.

ARTS & LIFE | RITMOS LATINO
UA salsa club opens the floor for new members BY JAMIE DONNELLY @JamieRisa11
Whether you’re an experienced dancer or have two left feet, Ritmos Latinos encourages everyone to join their weekly salsa dancing classes. “I have, like, two-and-a-half left feet and I have managed to learn the basic steps,” Kristina Mihajlovic, a member of Ritmos Latinos, said. “The thing we stress here is to always improve, practice, learn and have fun.” Ritmos Latinos is a University of Arizona club that aims to bring together people who love Latin music and want to learn how to salsa dance. During the classes, the club’s volunteer instructors teach members Rueda de Casino, a Cuban style of salsa dancing. Members of Ritmos Latinos gathered at the La Vita House on Sept. 3 and hosted a Latin dance night, giving students a glimpse of what the club has to offer. They started the event off with a quick run through of the basics, then they danced the night away as Latin music blared over the speakers. “It was a promotion event,” Damian Romero, a member of Ritmos Latinos and one of the volunteer instructors, said. “We worked with new students and gave them a sample class, very basic stuff, but fun.” Romero, a graduate student, learned how to salsa dance in Canada before joining Ritmos Latinos. Romero had initially learned about the club while working as a teaching assistant three years ago and has been involved with the club ever since. “I started teaching salsa in my Spanish class because I am a teaching assistant for the Spanish Department,” Romero said. “One of my students got involved with Ritmos Latinos and she told me to come. It was just a great experience from the beginning.” Unlike Romero, UA senior Soraya Sandoval joined Ritmos Latinos her first semester of freshman year when she considered herself to have two left feet and couldn’t dance. After being persuaded by the former club president, she took a chance, joined, and never looked back. “I came across Ritmos Latinos at the club fair and I had no dance experience whatsoever,” Sandoval said. “I just decided to join and try it out. I found it to be pretty cool and I was able to make all kinds of new friends.” You don’t have to be a UA student in order to participate; Ritmos Latinos is open to all Tucson community members and salsa enthusiasts. Maria Rivera, a Tucson resident, saw the event on Facebook and decided to check it out. “I went to another dance event and someone had mentioned the club, then I found the event on Facebook,” Rivera said. “I haven’t done salsa dancing in Tucson before, I had danced in Florida prior.” While Mihajlovic does have fun dancing, she

believes that getting the opportunity to meet all kinds of new people makes the club what it is. “I think the most fun aspect is getting to meet new people and trying new things,” Mihajlovic said. “You get to go out of your comfort zone, but in a safe environment where everyone is there to help you learn. I think that is the best part.” Sandoval also agrees that getting to meet new people is the best part of joining Ritmos Latinos. She describes it as a group dance experience because you are constantly switching dance partners, allowing members the chance to meet everyone. “I think the social aspect is great and it’s just fun,” Sandoval said. “It’s not competitive so you come even if you have no dance experience.” As for the rest of the semester, Ritmos Latinos will continue to host weekly dance classes and is introducing a new event that allows dancers from all levels to come together and enjoy Latin music. “This semester, we are trying out our Wildcat Latin dance parties that we will have once a month,” Sandoval said. “Usually we only went to class once a week, but now, with this dance party aspect, we can bring in more UA students who aren’t part of the club.” If you are interested in learning more about Ritmos Latinos and what they do, you can visit their website, ritmoslatinos.org.

SPORTS | RECAP
High press key for Arizona in 4-0 trouncing of UC Irvine BY MAX COHEN @MaxCohen_DW
Arizona women’s soccer started fast, intense and never let up in its 4-0 victory over the UC Irvine Anteaters. The ‘Cats dominated the run of play from the opening whistle, scoring 3 goals in the first nine minutes. Arizona also maintained their streak of not conceding a goal at now four games, five including their opening friendly. The scoring started in the second minute when Jada Talley saw Brooke Wilson making a back-post run. Talley floated a ball behind the Anteater back line onto Wilson’s foot, allowing Wilson to chip the keeper with ease. “I saw her making the back-post run,” Talley said postgame. “And that’s a really easy ball for me to play. Like, I’ve been playing it since club. That’s one of the balls I was taught to play — the second runner, not the first. And Brooke is always making runs for me. That’s why I have a couple of assists this year.” Just four minutes later, Talley caused more trouble for the Anteaters. She forced a turnover at the top of the UCI 18-yard box and found Jill Aguilera. Aguilera took a touch and, with her second, found the
back of the net. Four minutes after Arizona scored to double their lead, they were at it again. After a slide tackle, Iyana Zimmerman found the ball at her feet. She put a ball over the top and found Talley, who tucked it home for the first time. After Arizona scored their third goal, the game slowed down. For the first ten minutes, UCI tried to play out of the back but were stifled by Arizona’s high pressure. After Arizona’s third goal, UCI played more directly, playing over the press rather than through it. This caused a bit of a problem for the ’Cats because they struggled to find quality shots when building from the back, rather than from a forced turnover. Arizona’s fourth and final goal was an incredible individual effort from freshman Madison Goerlinger. She blocked a shot in Arizona’s box and immediately made herself available as an outlet. Wilson sent Goerlinger through the backline, and Goerlinger beat the keeper far-post for her second goal of the season. Arizona women’s soccer will travel to Santa Clara to play the Broncos for their next match on Friday, Aug. 13 at 7:30 p.m. Santa Clara received votes in the last United Soccer Coaches poll, but it will take place on Friday the 13th — so who knows?

Arizona wins two out of three during the SDSU/USD Invitational BY DANIEL PHILIPSBORN AND CLARISSA EDWARDS @DailyWildcat
The start of the SDSU/USD Invitational did not go as well as expected for the Arizona Wildcats, as they fell short to (No. 2) Nebraska in a four-set match (25-17, 25-14, 17-25, 2517). Although the Wildcats failed to upset last year’s runner up for the national championship, there were many bright spots from Friday’s match. First off, the team proved that they will not be discouraged when down two sets to a juggernaut of a program like Nebraska. Also, Devyn Cross played extremely well in her first game back from injury, recording 6 kills and 3 blocks (team high). As for career milestones, Julia Patterson, who showcased a variety of skills in the losing effort, has now totaled over 2,500 assists in her college career.
Lastly, Paige Whipple continued her strong start to the season, recording 13 kills (team high), 6 digs, 2 assists and an ace. On Saturday, Arizona volleyball played their second game of the invitational against West Virginia and won 3-1. Arizona lost the first set 32-30 but then turned it on from there. The Wildcats went on to win the next three sets in a row 25-14, 25-12 and 25-19. Whipple went on to lead the Wildcats in kills again with 19. The second game of the doubleheader had Arizona play against San Diego State. Arizona swept with a score of 3-0. Some outstanding players of the game were Paige Whipple with 13 kills, Katie Smoot with 12 kills and Shardonee Hayes added 9 herself. Arizona had 30 digs and SDSU had 23. Arizona’s next game will be held on Sept. 13 in Lawrence, Kan. as the Wildcats travel to play in the Kansas Invitational.

Out of state tuition, is it worth it? BY JANELLE ASH @DailyWildcat
W
hen it is time for a student to decide where they are going to attend the next four years of their life, the cost is usually an important deciding factor. According to the University of Arizona’s Scholarship and Financial Aid website, out of-statetuition for the 20192020 school year is $36,600. That is just the cost for tuition alone, so many people may ask: Is the University of Arizona worth the out-of-state tuition? Personally, I am an out-of-state student, so I believe the cost is worth it. The University of Arizona excels in many different programs, from our astronomy major to the Eller College of Management. Being a part of the School of Journalism the last three years has opened new opportunities to help better my career. The journalism school has an adviser dedicated to helping students apply and find internships and jobs that are best suited for them. If you are the type of person who can handle triple-digit weather, the University of Arizona may be just the place for you. Tucson is a college town, so almost everything revolves around
the University. This makes being away from home a little bit easier. According to the University’s website, there are over 100 majors to choose from, with some of the most popular being business, management, biomedical sciences and health related majors. The university also has a wide range of graduate programs, including the James E. Rogers College of Law, the Eller College of Management and a College of Medicine. I have had a wonderful experience at the university these past four years and I recommend it to anyone that has this school as an option. There are so many ways to get involved on campus, from greek life to the hundreds of different clubs. For me, getting involved on campus was joining the Daily Wildcat, where I was able to do what I love and be surrounded by people who share the same passion I do. If you are in a financial position to pay the out-ofstate tuition price, my advice is to go for it! There are also many different scholarship opportunities that students can apply for and grants that are awarded. I also suggest to everyone I know: If you can go out of state for college, go. You get a chance to live in a different state for a short period of time. You also have the chance to get outside of a place you may have lived your whole life and get outside your comfort zone. — Janelle Ash is a senior studying journalism

Wasn’t that pillow a bit to the right? It was not the work of a thief in the night. And yet it still gave two students quite the fright. Two University of Arizona Police Department officers arrived at Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall after getting a call about a suspicious occurrence in a dorm room on Aug. 21 at around 11:30 p.m. When the officers arrived, the resident assistant led them to the students’ room. The students told them when they had left their room at around 4:30 p.m. that afternoon, they had been sure to lock the door. When one of them returned at around 8:45 p.m. that evening, the door was locked, just as she had left it. The room, however, was not. As she entered the room, the first student noticed that her pillows had been moved and placed in a stack on top of her bed. A few other belongings were also in new locations around the room. The second student described similar changes. She also suspected that someone had gone through a bag she kept her valuables in. Despite the strange arrangements, neither student reported anything stolen.
made it over the wall with ease. The second student had a harder time getting over the wall and eventually fell over it. During the fall, her lanyard broke and her keys fell into the garage. The officer walked over, handed over the keys and saw the second student struggling to stand. Eventually she got to her feet and the students walked off toward the Highland District. The officer called after them, but they did not respond. Additional officers arrived to assist and the two eventually spoke with the students near Colonia de la Paz Residence Hall. The second student, the one who had fallen, had bloodshot eyes, smelled like alcohol and slurred her speech, according to the officers. She had also been stumbling on the walk over and continued to struggle to maintain her balance during her conversation with the officers until she was told to sit down. Paramedics also arrived on the scene, after an officer called them to check on the second student and quickly cleared her. The officers also spoke with the first student, who told them that she had made a mistake and apologized for it. She said that it was her first time away from home and was a good student. She and the other student had been at an offcampus party, where they had been drinking. While walking back, they went through the garage where the officer eventually saw them. The first student said two other friends had been with them. She refused to name them, though did say she was upset that they had “ditched” her. The officer reported that throughout their conversation, the first student spoke with slightly slurred speech and smelled like alcohol. The first student was placed in the UA Diversion program and the second student was cited and released for minor in possession.
en garde! It is the responsibility of this Police Beat writer to inform readers that a UAPD officer found a rusty sword on the top floor of the Second Street Parking Garage on Aug. 25 at approximately 8 a.m. The officer described the sword, which he found under a utility box, as over three feet long, made of brass and overall similar in appearance to a “Civil War-era cavalry saber.” No one has come forward to claim the sword.

Let’s face it, there is no way to come onto campus looking at bikes and not appear suspicious. However, it doesn’t help when a person admits to law enforcement officers that the other reason he was on campus was to ogle college students. Two UAPD officers were en route to a potential bike theft near Steward Observatory when they got word of another bike theft occurring nearby. The officers drove to the area near Speedway Boulevard and Mountain Avenue where they spotted two men, both pushing motorized bicycles. According to the officers, one of the men matched the description of the suspected bike thief from the first call. The men agreed to speak with the officers. When asked, both men said that they were not on campus to steal bikes. A records check revealed that the first man, the one who matched the previous description, has two warrants out from the Tucson Police Department. The officers handcuffed him. The first man said that he and the second man had been at UA looking at bicycles as well as “enjoying the scenery” of sorority members back on campus. One of the officers asked if he had attempted to cut a bike lock. The first man called upon his right to remain silent. The second man told officers that he was not there to steal, that he had no tools for the job in the bag he was carrying and that he would not allow them to search his bag. He was let go and left the scene with both bicycles. After the second man left, officers took the first man to Pima County Jail where he was booked on his outstanding warrants.
not in kansas anymore Many new students face hurdles when coming to college. But sometimes failing to get over those hurdles, both literal and metaphorical, can get students in trouble with the law. A UAPD officer was patrolling the area near the Cherry Avenue Garage when he spotted two students walking toward a short wall in the garage on Aug. 25 at around 2 a.m. According to the officer, the first student quickly
