CAMPUS HELPS FUNDRAISE FOR OLD MAIN

BY MAGGIE DRIVER The Daily Wildcat

President Ann Weaver Hart held her first town hall meeting of the semester on Tuesday, where the UA community asked about the university’s budgeting methods.

Many UA administrators, as well as students and teachers, attended the meeting, which was in an open question and answer format.

Along with Andrew Comrie, the UA Provost, Hart opened the forum with a discussion about the recent Arizona Board of Regents meeting that put forth a budget request for Gov. Jan Brewer. Hart discussed the loss of state funding from budget cuts.

Hart also discussed the state’s funding for the UA, which is based on the performance of faculty and students and on graduation rates.

“Performance-based funding, and our ability to do a better job in that area, is our primary source of increases going forward,” Hart said.

“We all need to feel that there are opportunities for us.”

Hart also brought up a “package” deal voted on by the board of regents and supported by all university presidents, which includes the UA’s land-grant mission in state funding.

“In order for higher education, including the University of Arizona, to advance,” Hart said, “… this request is a package deal … Don’t pick the U of A out and leave other parts in.”

Members of the audience also voiced concerns about the Responsibility Centered

UAPD publishes yearly crime report

BY STEPHANIE CASANOVA

The Daily Wildcat UAPD published its annual report on crime statistics on Tuesday, which revealed a significant decrease in liquor law arrests and a significant increase in liquor law violations leading to disciplinary action.

Sgt. Fil Barrera, public information officer for UAPD, said the Pima County Attorney’s Office, the Dean of Students and the University of Arizona Police Department work together to offer students a diversion program rather than citing them for alcohol violations.

UAPD is taking this opportunity to give students a second chance rather than arresting them, he added.

“We’re just basically taking the opportunity to provide additional education and prevention on campus,” Barrera said.

Reported forcible sex offenses also increased, from zero in 2011 to nine in 2012. Barrera said many UA departments have been working to encourage students to report these incidents, regardless of whether other factors such as drugs or alcohol are involved in the situation.

“I think everyone on this issue is doing a really good job,” Barrera said. “Could we do a better job? I’m sure we could, but we’re trying to get there.”

The report includes statistics regarding a variety of crimes including murder, assault, robbery and drug and alcohol violations, as well as hate crimes.

Motor vehicle theft also saw a significant increase, with four times as many thefts reported in 2012 than 2011.

“We spend quite a bit of time in our lots,” Barrera said, “but there’s quite a bit of property for us to … patrol and just the sheer volume of vehicles makes it kind of hard for us.”

Southern Arizona may be on the verge of a whooping cough outbreak, according to doctors at the University of Arizona Medical Center.

Whooping cough, or pertussis, is a highly contagious respiratory infection that causes severe coughing fits that leave sufferers gasping, or “whooping,” for air. A higher than average number of cases in Pima County this year has raised concern about an impending outbreak.

“Pertussis outbreaks occur about every three to five years, and we’re due for one,” said Dr. Sean Elliott, medical director of infection prevention for the

UA Health Network.

Hospitals in Pima County usually see about 40 to 50 cases of the disease annually, Elliott said, adding that during an outbreak, the number could surge to 10 to 100 times that amount.

Currently, Texas is experiencing a pertussis outbreak, as California did last year, he said.

“It may be that we’re on the brink of an outbreak … or that we’ll see it in the next year or so,” Elliott said, adding that early fall and winter are usually the months with the highest incidence of pertussis.

Symptoms of pertussis include about a week of flu-like symptoms that give way to a prolonged period characterized by persistent coughing

UA fundraises for Old Main

BY BRITTNY MEJIA

The Daily Wildcat A bell rang out across campus on Tuesday, commemorating the first day of UA classes held in Old Main in 1891.

Students, faculty, staff and the community joined together for a fundraising event for Old Main, a fixture on campus for 122 years. At the “Save Old Main Kickoff” event the UA Mall, speakers shared their memories of Old Main and their hopes of reaching the $13.5 million funding goal.

“My decision to become a Wildcat began in Old Main,” said Brenda Puga, the vice president of Student Alumni Ambassadors and a journalism senior.

“Knowing that the same students who began here ate, slept and studied in this building, and it’s still accessible to its current students these days, truly demonstrates that we’re Wildcats for life.”

Puga said she hopes the campus can raise enough funds to keep Old Main accessible, adding that she has

will be able to continue to fund those existing grants.”

Though that may depend on how long the shutdown lasts.

In the event of a shutdown, the department plan stated it would furlough — meaning employees would be placed on a leave of absence — 90 percent of its total staff for the first week of the lapse.

After a week, the department would phase in employees as needed to “prevent significant damage to the underlying activity,” though no more than 6 percent of staff would be back to work during a shutdown.

However, a delay in department obligations and payments beyond one week would severely curtail the cash flow to school districts, colleges and universities and vocational rehabilitation agencies that depend on the department’s funding to support their services, the contingency plan stated.

“For the most part, the current fall semester, everything [financial aid] has already been processed,” said Beth Acree, UA registrar and interim director of the Office of

Management budget. The organization is trying to help create and implement a new budget model for the UA, according to its website.

Hart said Responsibility Centered Management will “reveal to all of us, more explicitly, what the expenses ... for our activities are,” as well as help find what the actual monetary amount is on activities and amenities throughout the university, such as watering plants.

This will help the university determine tradeoffs that must be made in order to keep the university running, Hart added.

Hart said it is important for the university to newspaper,” Novak said.

that can be extremely painful, he added. “[People] have broken ribs with the cough,” Elliott said. “It’s that bad.”

The disease is particularly dangerous for newborn infants. Elliott said the eight or nine pediatric cases reported in the county during the last two months are slightly above average.

Newborn infants are more susceptible to whooping cough than the rest of the population because their developing immune systems can be caught unprepared by the infection, said Dr. Chan Lowe, associate professor in pediatrics and section chief of Hospital Medicine and Outreach at Diamond Children’s.

Although newborns usually receive immunizations when they are two months old, along with periodic “boosters” over the course of their first year, they are highly susceptible to the infection during their first six months because the vaccination hasn’t reached its full strength, Lowe said.

For teenagers and college students, who likely received their last injection at the age of four, Lowe recommended getting the Tdap booster, as the effects of the original injection will have diminished considerably.

“The best way to protect the babies is actually to get everybody else immunized,” he said.

If an outbreak were to occur, Lowe said the doctors in his department would likely

Scholarships and Financial Aid. “We sort of passed the critical time with the beginning of the fall semester, so that’s kind of in our favor.”

On the research level, spending for most existing federal grants and contracts can continue, according to Jennifer Barton, interim vice president of research in the UA Executive Office of the President.

If there are federal grants and contracts that rely on cooperative agreements or the use of federal government resources, the issue will be that federal personnel are unavailable, she added.

“It [the shutdown] will definitely delay new funds coming into the university, which is not a positive development for us,” Barton said.

Overall, any uncertainty over the budget is bad, Barton said. “[It] could lead to delayed or reduced awards in this next fiscal year,” Barton said, “which would of course be difficult on the whole research enterprise, including the personnel who work here.”

begin to give infants their DTaP shots earlier, beginning at six weeks. However, the effectiveness of that strategy would be limited.

Infants sometimes need to be intubated, meaning that a breathing tube is inserted into the infant’s trachea to supply oxygen to their overstressed lungs. However, this can cause further complications.

“It’s terrible,” he said. “It’s such a tricky disease because the throat is irritated, so when we put the breathing tube in, that makes them cough even worse, and then we end up having to paralyze the babies to keep them sedated.”

To avoid catching the “100 day cough,” Elliott said students should cover their mouths while coughing or sneezing and wash their hands frequently.

Although he said he knows it may be difficult for college students who are “hitting the books,” he said that “one of the best ways to stay healthy, both from infections and in general, is to get lots of sleep.”

David Salafsky, director of health promotion and preventive services for the UA’s Campus Health Service, said that although he has not seen an uptick in pertussis cases among students, the Tdap booster is something “everyone should get.”

“Know your vaccination status,” Salafsky said. “If everybody is immunized, then [pertussis] is less likely to spread.”

‘The Simpsons’ to kill off character this season MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

NEW YORK — “The Simpsons” may be going strong in its 25th season, but a major character from the long-running animated series will soon meet his or her maker.

In a conference call with reporters last week, executive producer Al Jean revealed plans to kill off a character in the season ahead.

“We’re actually working on a script where a character will pass away,” Jean said. “I’ll give a clue that the actor playing the character won an Emmy for playing that character, but I won’t say who it is.”

“Simpsons” fanatics will know that this hint doesn’t exactly narrow things down: Nearly every member of the core ensemble of voice-over performers has won an Emmy, including Dan Castellaneta (Homer, Barney, Krusty), Julie Kavner (Marge, Patty, Selma), Hank Azaria (Apu, practically everyone else on the show), Nancy

Soul music meets Yogi Bear Artist shares love for cartoons, Marvin Gaye with downtown exhibit

SAVANNAH DOUGLAS/THE DAILY WILDCAT

TUCSON ARTIST DAVID SAYRE’S exhibit called “How to Kill a Marvin Gaye Song” will premiere this weekend at the Museum of Contemporary Art in downtown Tucson. Sayre’s time as an elementary school art teacher inspired the cartoon drawings featured in the exhibit.

BY MCKINZIE FRISBIE

The Daily Wildcat Artist Dave Sayre knows there is something magical about being a kid and watching cartoons on a Saturday morning.

“That’s what cartoons were to me,” he said. “I was just inspired by them.”

His technique and style of painting are influenced by the early ’70s cartoon era, which played imaginative and eccentric shows such as “Underdog,” “The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show” and “The Yogi Bear Show.”

Sayre puts his cartoonist style of art to work in his latest exhibit, “How to Kill a Marvin Gaye Song,” set to open to the public at the Museum of Contemporary Art on Saturday. The name, Sayre said, pays tribute to his lifelong appreciation of Marvin Gaye.

“I’ve been through so many different types of music in my life, but Marvin has always been there,” he said. “I’ve never left Marvin Gaye.”

As well as stemming from

Sayre’s love for the musician, the exhibit’s title also originates from a thought Sayre had one day in his studio while listening to the radio.

“I heard somebody covering a Marvin Gaye song and it sounded horrible,” he said. “So I, in my head I said, ‘That’s how you kill a Marvin Gaye song.’ And then I thought, ‘Well, that’s the perfect name for a show.’”

The exhibit will feature 12 of his paintings and includes a room with ’70s cartoons playing on massive old-school televisions as his paintings hang in the background.

Sayre said that he has been an artist for as long as he can remember, and his initial inspiration led him to continue to draw and sketch into adulthood.

Before his current style of painting, Sayre focused on more realistic art, but he eventually grew tired of the style’s repetitive technique. “[There] was always an undertone, layer after layer,” Sayre said. “Every time I went to the studio it was always the same

… [Realism] is always the same process; that’s why I went away from it.”

Sayre said his childhood passion for drawing cartoons was revived one night when a friend invited him to watch old episodes of “The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.”

“It just brought back so many memories for me, how important cartoons were in developing artistically,” he said. “That’s why there are so many cartoons in my work; it brings me back to my childhood.”

Sayre is a former elementary school art teacher, and his students’ relaxed and simplistic style of drawing inspired a new style for him.

“They don’t have all this crap in their heads and they’re not bogged down with bills,” he said.

“There’s this fluidity in their lines.

The coolest thing about kids’ drawings is that it’s all universal.

We have kids come from Africa, but they all start drawing a figure the same way.”

He has recently started to paint the colorful versions of

his childhood memories on patterned fabric instead of the standard canvas. Sayre said the fabric provides a more creative backdrop for his paintings than standard canvas does.

As he moved from realistic painting to loosely-styled colorful cartoon paintings, Sayre says that he frequently changes his style and likes to consider his work different from that of other artists.

“It bothers me when artists’ work looks exactly like other artists’ work,” he said. “I want my work to look like my work. I want people to look and say, ‘That’s a Sayre.’ And that’s a long journey.

That doesn’t just happen overnight.”

What fall fashion are you itching to break out of your closet?

I guess jeans, because all summer long I’ve been wearing shorts, and I love wearing jeans. Levi’s are my favorite, by the way. So I’m excited to finally bust out my jeans. Something else, too, is also hoodies. I know that’s not very stylish, but I really love hoodies and it’s kind of seeming like it’s getting a little cooler. Even though it is Tucson so it’s extremely hot year ‘round, but I’m finally feeling the love from fall weather.

How would you best describe your style or how do you think others describe your style?

I don’t want to say hipster, but I love buying clothes at H&M. That’s my favorite store. So whatever you classify people who shop at H&M. Maybe metrosexual.

Can you tell me a little bit about what you’re currently wearing?

My tank top is from H&M and it was only $6. And my jeans are from American Eagle, although they’re pretty old. But I finally got to wear them because it’s been so hot. And then I have Chucks on, classic Converse All Star low top. Oh, and the sunglasses are also from H&M. — Follow Arts reporter Amy Johnson @Amy_Jhnsn

Pointing fingers at ASU not productive

BY CARSON SUGGS

The Daily Wildcat

I

n light of a recent attack on an Arizona State University student, the editorial board of the Arizona Republic published a short piece on how student conduct at ASU and the school’s overall reputation is detrimental to student safety on and off campus.

No one is doubting the shamefulness or the seriousness of violent acts committed against students, but the editorial board of the Republic has reacted childishly and unprofessionally. Its editorial resembles the knee-jerk verbal diarrhea one would expect to see in the comments of a column, not in the column itself.

For the editorial board to put its stamp of approval on such a broad and condescending piece is embarrassing and does little to help raise awareness of a very serious issue.

The article cites “binge drinking, fights and abuse of women” as proof of its opening revelation: “The idea that college students are adults ranks right up there with belief in the tooth fairy.” This all culminates in the “sickness known as party-mania,” a kind of bogeyman out of, it seems, a 1950s informational film warning about the temptations of rock ‘n’ roll music.

Binge drinking, fighting and abuse all occur off college campuses as well, but I guess that fact is not important enough for the editorial board to consider. No, no — it’s the dang college kids, I tell you!

The article contends that these activities are “what some kids think they are supposed to do,” without providing any conclusive evidence or even taking a guess at what might be happening in our culture that would make “some kids” feel like they are supposed to do these things.

“Too bad,” it repeats. “Too bad parents don’t teach respect and restraint before they turn their little darlings loose on the world.” Here, we have gone from “some kids” to the general failure of “parents.”

Of course parents are responsible for teaching their children respect and restraint, but it is ultimately up to individuals — students and non-students — to decide whether they want to be minimally decent human beings and participate in society like nearly everyone else.

But history has shown that some people just don’t want to play by the rules, and nothing can be done to change that, not by ASU, not by the government, not by law enforcement.

“Too bad Tempe can’t bill parents for the extra costs caused by their badly behaved brats,” the article says. But if the editorial board wants these outliers to “suffer real consequences,” would it not make sense for the costs to be placed on those who committed the acts in the first place? The editorial board seems confused about where to place blame and how to remain consistent with its “tooth fairy” revelation.

What happened at ASU is inexcusable and more people should be made aware of it, but the editorial board of the Republic went about informing people the wrong way. Instead of taking the opportunity to make a larger point about the importance of student conduct and facing the consequences of illegal acts, all it managed to express was its desire to get these “naughty children” off its lawn.

A tri-university student safety task force is a step in the right direction, but instead of highlighting its purpose and what good could come from it, the editorial board chose to wag its collective finger at ASU. — Carson Suggs is a senior studying English. Follow him @crsnsggs

Boehner, GOP hurting everyone with shutdown

BY FORTESA LATIFI

The Daily Wildcat

A

t 12:01 a.m. EST on Tuesday, the nonessential parts of the U.S. federal government shut down. About 800,000 federal employees have been indefinitely furloughed and others are continuing to work without pay as a result of the shutdown. For this, we have House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and his mindless followers to thank.

The Democrats, who control the White House and the Senate, and the Republicans, who control the House of Representatives, have never been more drastically divided than they are right now. In March, their inability to reach an agreement on the budget crisis led them to pass a temporary spending measure to buy both parties more time to reach a middle point, or for one of them to concede.

Six months have come and gone and an agreement still has not been reached.

Our government was shut down because of a last-ditch effort by Republicans to block an act that was signed three years ago and upheld by the Supreme Court in 2012.

Our government is shut down because the Republican Party is doing everything in its power to stop a law that extends health insurance to millions of Americans who would otherwise have to do without, allows seniors to buy their prescription drugs for much cheaper and ensures that being a woman isn’t a pre-existing condition by forbidding gender discrimination in health insurance.

The Affordable Care Act covers annual checkups and ensures that young people can stay on their parents’ health insurance until they’re 26. It covers maternity care, mandates that health care companies can no longer drop people’s coverage when they get sick and requires insurance companies to cover the cost of contraceptives.

But the majority of the Republican Party, following the lead of Boehner with its Tea Party values and antiquated ideals, opposes this law so vehemently that it is willing to risk any economic progress we have made by shutting down the government and sending consumer confidence spiraling downwards.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, during his 21-hour filibuster, compared stopping the Affordable Care Act to stopping the Nazis in Germany.

Yes, Sen. Cruz. The Nazi Party in Germany, who murdered, suppressed and imprisoned millions in an anti-Semitic campaign to create a superior race, is definitely comparable to “Obamacare,” which provides more Americans access to affordable health care. And while we’re at it, thank you for reciting “Green Eggs and Ham” during your filibuster, and reminding us all just how childish your party is acting.

“Unfortunately, right now House Republicans continue to tie funding of the government to ideological demands like limiting a woman’s access to contraception or delaying

the Affordable Care Act,” President Barack Obama said on Monday evening. “One faction of one party in one house of Congress in one branch of government doesn’t get to shut down the entire government just to re-fight the results of an election.”

The votes have been counted.

Obama won. Again. The Supreme Court has ruled. And even though Republicans shut down the federal government, open enrollment in the Health Insurance Marketplace still began on Tuesday, as per the ACA. Millions of Americans who have lived without health insurance or who have been charged higher rates because of their gender will have the chance to purchase affordable insurance. It is time that the Republicans accept their losses, stop withholding money from the American people just because they didn’t get their way and join the rest of us in the 21st century.

Healthy eating difficult on campus

BY ELIZABETH EATON

The Daily Wildcat

S

tudents who come to the UA determined to lead a healthy lifestyle may have to pause and check their pocketbooks.

Choosing healthy food options here is more expensive and more difficult than it should be at a university.

A Whopper at Burger King is $3.49, and upgrading to a small meal costs only $2.30 more. That low price buys you 1160 calories of greasy beef, salty fries and sugary soda, amounting to 50 grams of fat (with 12.5 grams of saturated fat and one gram of trans fat), 1460 mg of sodium and 64 grams of sugar.

In contrast, “food your body loves” comes at a high price. A hypothetical salad at Core with carrot shreds, cheddar cheese, croutons, cucumber and fat free ranch dressing would be approximately 250 calories, 11.4 grams of fat (6.4 grams saturated fat), 446.5 mg of sodium and 1.8 grams of sugar — obviously a healthier option, but you’ll have to cough up $6.75 for it.

Adding protein costs another $1.25 to $2, and that doesn’t even include a drink or side like at Burger King.

The high price tags are keeping students away from healthy food and forcing them to make less health-conscious decisions.

“Personally, I like to keep a healthy regime,” said Lior Attias, a pre-neuroscience freshman.

“If healthy food around campus was cheaper, it [would] be easier to do.”

For many students, choosing a lowcalorie food option can hinge on monetary contributions from their parents.

Without the big bucks from parents, students often have to fall back on less-healthy choices at the Student Union Memorial Center.

“I get a whole pizza [from Papa John’s Pizza] because it’s cheaper,” said Avery Mickens, an engineering freshman.

Core is one of only two locations between the SUMC and Park Student Union that offers extensive nutritional information online — the other is IQ Fresh. Nothing at all is provided for the chain restaurants like Burger King, Panda Express, Einstein Bros Bagels, Papa John’s Pizza and Chick-fil-A. To find nutritional information on their food, you have to dig through each business’s separate website.

A complete listing of the health facts for restaurants unique to campus, like the Arizona Room, Cactus Grill, Canyon Coffee, Cellar Bistro, On Deck Deli, Pangea, Sabor, Bagel Talk, La Petite Patisserie and Park Avenue Dining is not available on the Arizona

Student Unions’ website. Only a small handful of menu items are featured, which is hardly helpful. Canyon Coffee, for example, only posts that drip coffee and tea lattes have zero calories, fat, protein and carbohydrates, and fails to list other menu items.

The Arizona Student Unions’ website does say that an “in-depth online look at the nutrition information in each of our restaurants” is coming soon, but according to returning students, the website promised the same thing last year.

“As a vegan living on campus, it’s often difficult to identify foods I can eat versus foods I can’t eat,” said Jessie Marman, a sophomore studying pre-physiology and pre-visual communications. “Last year, I had initially gone to the website to find information, but there wasn’t really [any] available.”

Health should be a priority in college, not something extra to worry about on top of classes and tuition payments. Students should not have to sacrifice healthy choices because they’re afraid of breaking the budget with exorbitant prices or because they simply can’t find enough information on the foods they’re eating. After all, does the UA really want us all to gain the freshman 15?

POLICE BEAT

BY MICAH MONTIEL

The Daily Wildcat

Touchy, touchy

A UA student was arrested and booked by University of Arizona Police Department officers on Sept. 21 at 12:05 a.m. for minor in bodily possession of alcohol in a residence hall.

UAPD officers went to the dorm to speak to a drunken student who had pushed two RAs while trying to get back to his room, after he was seen drunk at a social event in the men’s wing of the dorm. The event was shut down after RAs found out that alcohol was being served.

The student could barely walk and refused to go back to his room until he was told he was going to get written up. Ten minutes later, RAs went to the student’s room and found five men drinking jungle juice. When the RAs accused the student of drinking jungle juice, he got angry and told the RAs to call the police.

When officers arrived, an RA took them to the student’s room.

The student opened the door but stood in the doorway with the door partially closed behind him. He said that he hadn’t touched any women that night, but may have touched some men “in a friendly way.” He also denied that he had told anyone to call the police.

The student smelled strongly of alcohol and had red, bloodshot eyes. He refused to take a preliminary breath test, then tried to shut the door on police officers, saying that he no longer wanted to speak to them and was ready to go back into his room.

As he tried to shut the door, an officer grabbed the student’s arm and took him into the hallway. As the student could not stand up straight, the officer instructed him to sit by the wall, but the student refused. The officer repeated his instructions and the student again refused.

As the officers continued speaking to him, the student began showing mood swings. He was joking and lighthearted one moment, then uncooperative and angry the next. At one point, he tried to convince an officer to punch him, saying, “I can sue the shit out of you.”

At that point, the student was handcuffed, arrested and booked into Pima County Jail.

UAPD officers were called to a fraternity party on Sept. 21 at 12:20 a.m. due to loud noises coming from the fraternity house.

When officers arrived, they saw two to three people outside and heard a lot of noise coming from inside the building. A slight scent of alcohol was also present in the area.

When officers spoke to the fraternity president and vice president, who were standing at the back entrance of the house, the students apologized and one went inside to quiet everybody down. Both students strongly smelled of alcohol and said they were standing in the back to make sure only members of their fraternity and significant others were allowed in to the party.

The students said it was a “hangout” of about 80 people.

When officers asked if they could enter, the students said no.

They added that everything inside was OK and everyone was about to leave.

Officers told the students that people who did not live there should leave, and people who did should to get to their rooms.

As officers were walking out, they could hear voices coming from inside the building yelling, “Shut the fuck up,” and “Be quiet.”

The Greek Life Dean of Students was contacted and notified of the situation.

If you are interested in studying abroad next semester, the application deadline is October 15th, so contact us today to get started!

UA fundraises for Old Main

BY BRITTNY MEJIA

The Daily Wildcat A bell rang out across campus on Tuesday, commemorating the first day of UA classes held in Old Main in 1891.

Students, faculty, staff and the community joined together for a fundraising event for Old Main, a fixture on campus for 122 years. At the “Save Old Main Kickoff” event the UA Mall, speakers shared their memories of Old Main and their hopes of reaching the $13.5 million funding goal.

“My decision to become a Wildcat began in Old Main,” said Brenda Puga, the vice president of Student Alumni Ambassadors and a journalism senior.

“Knowing that the same students who began here ate, slept and studied in this building, and it’s still accessible to its current students these days, truly demonstrates that we’re Wildcats for life.”

Puga said she hopes the campus can raise enough funds to keep Old Main accessible, adding that she has

will be able to continue to fund those existing grants.”

Though that may depend on how long the shutdown lasts.

In the event of a shutdown, the department plan stated it would furlough — meaning employees would be placed on a leave of absence — 90 percent of its total staff for the first week of the lapse.

After a week, the department would phase in employees as needed to “prevent significant damage to the underlying activity,” though no more than 6 percent of staff would be back to work during a shutdown.

However, a delay in department obligations and payments beyond one week would severely curtail the cash flow to school districts, colleges and universities and vocational rehabilitation agencies that depend on the department’s funding to support their services, the contingency plan stated.

“For the most part, the current fall semester, everything [financial aid] has already been processed,” said Beth Acree, UA registrar and interim director of the Office of

Management budget. The organization is trying to help create and implement a new budget model for the UA, according to its website.

Hart said Responsibility Centered Management will “reveal to all of us, more explicitly, what the expenses ... for our activities are,” as well as help find what the actual monetary amount is on activities and amenities throughout the university, such as watering plants.

This will help the university determine tradeoffs that must be made in order to keep the university running, Hart added.

Mark Novak, a landscape architect with the UA Department of Planning, Design and KEENAN TURNER/THE DAILY WILDCAT Construction, said the question and answer ANN WEAVER HART, president of the UA, talks to a full audience session was very helpful and that it worked well. in the Flandrau Science Center for her first town hall meeting of the “You don’t get exposed to that every day, and semester on Tuesday. so it’s interesting to see how that’s working,” Novak said, “especially in our changing budget university, beyond seeing it online or reading it in the environment.”

Hart said it is important for the university to newspaper,” Novak said.

that can be extremely painful, he added. “[People] have broken ribs with the cough,” Elliott said. “It’s that bad.”

The disease is particularly dangerous for newborn infants. Elliott said the eight or nine pediatric cases reported in the county during the last two months are slightly above average.

Newborn infants are more susceptible to whooping cough than the rest of the population because their developing immune systems can be caught unprepared by the infection, said Dr. Chan Lowe, associate professor in pediatrics and section chief of Hospital Medicine and Outreach at Diamond Children’s.

Although newborns usually receive immunizations when they are two months old, along with periodic “boosters” over the course of their first year, they are highly susceptible to the infection during their first six months because the vaccination hasn’t reached its full strength, Lowe said.

For teenagers and college students, who likely received their last injection at the age of four, Lowe recommended getting the Tdap booster, as the effects of the original injection will have diminished considerably.

“The best way to protect the babies is actually to get everybody else immunized,” he said.

If an outbreak were to occur, Lowe said the doctors in his department would likely

Scholarships and Financial Aid. “We sort of passed the critical time with the beginning of the fall semester, so that’s kind of in our favor.”

On the research level, spending for most existing federal grants and contracts can continue, according to Jennifer Barton, interim vice president of research in the UA Executive Office of the President.

If there are federal grants and contracts that rely on cooperative agreements or the use of federal government resources, the issue will be that federal personnel are unavailable, she added.

“It [the shutdown] will definitely delay new funds coming into the university, which is not a positive development for us,” Barton said.

Overall, any uncertainty over the budget is bad, Barton said. “[It] could lead to delayed or reduced awards in this next fiscal year,” Barton said, “which would of course be difficult on the whole research enterprise, including the personnel who work here.”

begin to give infants their DTaP shots earlier, beginning at six weeks. However, the effectiveness of that strategy would be limited.

Infants sometimes need to be intubated, meaning that a breathing tube is inserted into the infant’s trachea to supply oxygen to their overstressed lungs. However, this can cause further complications.

“It’s terrible,” he said. “It’s such a tricky disease because the throat is irritated, so when we put the breathing tube in, that makes them cough even worse, and then we end up having to paralyze the babies to keep them sedated.”

To avoid catching the “100 day cough,” Elliott said students should cover their mouths while coughing or sneezing and wash their hands frequently.

Although he said he knows it may be difficult for college students who are “hitting the books,” he said that “one of the best ways to stay healthy, both from infections and in general, is to get lots of sleep.”

David Salafsky, director of health promotion and preventive services for the UA’s Campus Health Service, said that although he has not seen an uptick in pertussis cases among students, the Tdap booster is something “everyone should get.”

“Know your vaccination status,” Salafsky said. “If everybody is immunized, then [pertussis] is less likely to spread.”

BASKETBALL

Hollis-Jefferson, McConnell share Pennsylvania bond

BY LUKE DELLA

The Daily Wildcat With a roster predominantly made up of Californians, it can be difficult for an East Coast player to fit in and feel comfortable on the Arizona basketball team.

But head down to the Wildcats’ locker room in McKale Center and you’ll be able to hear a faint but bold chant intertwined with the West Coast lingo.

“P.A., P.A., P.A., P.A.,” freshman Rondae Hollis-Jefferson shouted.

“We’ll start clapping our hands slowly then go faster and start chanting that, then we hug. Just to let them know we’re here.”

Small forward Hollis-Jefferson and point guard T.J. McConnell are the two players from Pennsylvania on the Arizona roster of 16. They also happen to be two of the loudest — perhaps most obnoxious — players on the team.

And everyone knows it.

“God, they can be annoying,” said Nick Johnson, a Gilbert, Ariz., native and the Wildcats’ shooting guard, with a smile. “No, they’re awesome and bring great chemistry to the team this year.”

This season will be both Hollis-Jefferson and McConnell’s first year on the Arizona roster. McConnell, a junior, was a member of the Wildcats last year, but because he had transferred from Duquesne in Pittsburgh, he was forced to sit out the season. McConnell was born and raised in Pittsburgh.

Hollis-Jefferson comes from Chester, Penn., which is just south of Philadelphia.

JUNIOR ANDREA VILARASAU finished in ninth place at the Windy City Collegiate Classic.

BY ROSE VALENZUELA

The Daily Wildcat After being ranked No. 10 in the recent golfstat.com poll, Arizona performed at the Windy City Collegiate Classic in Chicago and finished third in the twoday tournament hosted by Northwestern.

Sophomore Lindsey Weaver started off the tournament strong as Arizona’s top finisher on day one. She earned an individual medal with a score of 208 (-5). This led Weaver to obtain her best tournament score as a Wildcat so far.

Weaver said in a press release that she was pleased with her performance throughout the tournament.

“I think, individually, my rounds were pretty good,” Weaver said. “I got off to some rocky starts in the second and third rounds, but I was able to make some birdies and keep myself in contention the whole time.

The course was in great condition, but got a little windy in the second and third rounds.”

Juniors Andrea Vilarasau and Kendall Prince both shared a six-way tie to finish in ninth place. Vilarasau shot rounds of 73, 69 and 74.

Prince shot rounds of 69, 71 and 76.

In a five-way tie for 50th place, junior Manon Gidali finished with a score of 227 (+14), with rounds of 78, 75 and 74.

Freshman Jessica Vasilic

finished the tournament in a seven-way tie for 39th place, shooting rounds of 73, 70 and 78, which gave her a total score of 221 (+8).

“As a team, we are a little disappointed with our thirdplace finish,” Weaver said after the final round of the tournament. “We struggled a little [Tuesday] in the final round, but we will definitely keep improving in the next few weeks so we can pull out a win in our next tournament in Wilmington.”

The team will have time to prepare before traveling to Wilmington, N.C., for the 12th annual Landfall Tradition, a three-day tournament starting on Oct. 25.

ildcat freshman Aaron Gordon will likely be one of the most exciting players in college basketball this upcoming season.

The 6-foot-8, 210 pound forward is projected to spend just one year at the UA before moving on to the NBA, and he has the potential to play a vital role in leading Arizona’s pursuit of an NCAA title.

Gordon has an explosive 34.5-inch vertical jump, excels at dunking and has acquired a unique balance of agility and power.

Coming out of high school, ESPN.com ranked him as the No. 2 power forward in his class. This season, Gordon will be available to play both forward positions, but is expected to start at small forward. He will likely line up alongside post players Brandon Ashley and Kaleb Tarczewski in more of a perimeter role.

This has led some to wonder if Gordon will adjust to the new role, or if it would be better for him to remain at power forward.

“I can play the three [small forward],” Gordon told ESPN’s Jeff Goodman.

“

“I know for a fact I can play the three. If I am fortunate enough to make the next level, I want to play the three.”

Gordon is a great fit at small forward because he possesses the athleticism and agility needed for the position. His size and speed will put him at a unique advantage, as he will be quicker than defenders of comparable size, and possesses more power than defenders of comparable quickness.

As a small forward, he will be expected to put up more jump shots as he extends his range toward the perimeter, which Gordon said he has been working on.

“I’m developing my shot every day, and people will be surprised how well I can shoot it,” Gordon said. “I have a lot more to my game [now].”

A big reason as to why Gordon chose to come to Arizona was because he’s been told that he will play the wing but also have the option to move to power forward on occasion, he said. As it turns out, that is exactly what he’ll be doing.

Coaches still trust Denker in tough times

BY JAMES KELLEY

The Daily Wildcat The old saying goes that the fans’ and media’s favorite player is the back-up quarterback, and to some extent that seems to be the case for Arizona.

Senior incumbent B.J. Denker was 14-for-35 passing with 119 yards, two interceptions and a 57.1 passer rating in the Wildcat’s first loss on Saturday, 31-13, at Washington.

Co-offensive coordinator/ quarterbacks coach Rod Smith agreed that the back-up quarterback is often the most popular.

“I used to be a back up, so I was pretty popular,” Smith said.

“Unfortunately, the fans’ opinion don’t weigh a whole lot in our evaluations of what we’re doing. We respect it, but we gotta do what’s best for us.”

Denker has been the starter since last season’s No. 1 quarterback, Matt Scott, exhausted his eligibility after

the New Mexico Bowl.

“We don’t ask him to win the game all the time, we just ask him to be the moderator of the ball,” Smith said.

“There’s a lot of plays that we left out there that normally, he makes.”

Denker ran for 56 yards on 11 carries at UW. “He’s conscientious, and we had a long meeting Sunday and watched the film together, and he’s a smart guy,” head coach Rich Rodriguez said. “He can make better decisions, both in the run and the pass game.

That was the thing we can correct in a hurry, and B.J., he’ll do that. He had a good practice [Tuesday].”

Denker is 115th in the country in both passing yards, with 445 through four games, and passing efficiency, with a 94.4.

“He saw it in the film session,” Smith said. “He’ll be better … If he had to do it over again, I really believe he would make better decisions next time.”

The loss snapped Arizona’s fourgame win streak.

COLE MALHAM/THE DAILY WILDCAT

UA SENIOR QUARTERBACK B.J. Denker looks for a receiver downfield during Saturday’s game against Washington.

“It was on me, just not taking what they gave me and not making the right decision on a right play,” Denker said after the game.

Smith said Denker has gotten too much of the blame.

“He’s embarrassed; I’m embarrassed; we’re all embarrassed because this ain’t just B.J. Denker.

I didn’t do my job, you know what I mean?” Smith said. “Not one person ever wins a game; not one person ever loses a game. That’s the problem … too much emphasis

is put on the quarterback and too much praise is put on the quarterback.”

Freshman quarterback Javelle Allen relieved Denker late in the game, throwing an incomplete pass on his only attempt and rushing twice for 10 yards.

“There is a gap, but it is closing,” Smith said about the starting and back-up quarterbacks.

Washington quarterback Keith Price, a starter for three years, passed for 165 yards in the rain,

going 14-for-25, with a 129.8 passer rating.

“I don’t think he was very sharp,” Smith said. “I didn’t think it was a very good game by either quarterback, to be honest with you.”

UA junior running back Ka’Deem Carey carried the ball a career-high 30 times on Saturday, and Husky running back Bishop Sankey carried it a Washington record of 40 times.

USC slip-ups bode well for Arizona

BY LUKE DELLA

The Daily Wildcat As the weeks pass, the true contenders of the Pac-12 Conference begin to emerge while the outliers struggle to stay alive. Week five of the college football season was execution day for a number of Pac-12 schools.

The school that was hit the hardest was Arizona’s upcoming opponent, USC. The Trojans have struggled this season to replace four-year starting quarterback and current Philadelphia Eagle Matt Barkley. Neither Max Wittek nor Cody Kessler has proven to be the better choice under center for USC. The labor to develop a quarterback has plagued the once-mighty Trojans. Even though they’ve received productive results from running back Tre Madden, receivers Marqise Lee and Nelson Agholor to go along with a highly ranked defense, USC has only posted a 3-2 record, with both losses coming against

Pac-12 opponents.

This past Saturday, USC was embarrassed. A 62-41 loss on the road to ASU was the final straw for former head coach Lane Kiffin. The Trojans and their athletic director Pat Haden couldn’t even wait for sunrise to fire the third year coach,

8. Arizona (3-1, 0-1) LW 7 Week five: (L 31-13) at Washington This week: Bye

as they informed him at the airport in the wee hours of Sunday morning that his time in Los Angeles was over. In fact, they were so fed up with Kiffin that he wasn’t even allowed to take the charter bus back to the campus.

For the time being defensive line coach

Ed Orgeron will take over as the interim head coach. Similar to the Wildcats’ schedule, this upcoming week is a bye week for the Trojans.

But even with the off week, it will be difficult for them to recover after the shakeup.

The turmoil at USC couldn’t have come at a better time for Arizona, though. After a terrible offensive performance on the road last week in Seattle, the Wildcats would could be in for a tough night when they go up against a more focused Trojans team.

But a win in Los Angeles in week seven would not only put the Wildcats right back into the Pac-12 South race, it would almost absolutely bury USC. And with one less team to worry about, the Wildcats’ goal of reaching the Pac-12 title game become closer to reality.
