Groups push for cultural discussions Is your costume racially insensitive?

BY MEGHAN FERNANDEZ The Daily Wildcat

A recent incident regarding sorority members dressed in culturally insensitive Halloween costumes sparked a question of whether there is enough education and awareness about cultural groups on campus.

On Monday, a few members of the Delta Delta Delta sorority were wearing sombreros and mustaches, prompting individuals from Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán to protest outside of the sorority house.

Delta Delta Delta released a formal apology in a letter to the Daily Wildcat regarding Monday’s incident.

The letter stated that the organization is aware of the cultural insensitivity displayed by the members’ costumes on Monday.

The letter also stated that “Immediate action has been taken to remedy the situation including a formal apology, a commitment to educating all chapter members on cultural sensitivity, and correspondence with campus organizations.”

The incident occurred the same day that the assistant dean of students for Fraternity & Sorority Programs sent out an email to all greek chapters on campus addressing Halloween costumes and racial sensitivity. Johanne Ives, assistant dean of students for Fraternity & Sorority Programs, said in an email statement that Monday’s email was an effort to address how Halloween costumes can be racially insensitive.

“We wanted to educate students in the greek community about this problem and raise awareness about the issue of cultural appropriation during Halloween, all in an effort to help them make good informed decisions about what they select to wear,” Ives said in an email

‘Jan. 8th’ exhibit opens

The Daily Wildcat

The UA was ranked fourth in the nation for sexual health services out of 140 colleges evaluated this year, but campus health staff say there are still ways students can improve.

Lee Ann Hamilton, the Campus Health Service assistant director of Health Promotion and Preventive Services, said Trojan Brand Condoms sends college campuses a survey every year. The UA responds to it and the survey is then verified by the survey administrators.

Carrie Hardesty, a health educator for Campus Health HPPS, said some of the categories Trojan evaluates are hours of operation, the quality of sexual health information, the availability of condoms, sexually transmitted diseases testing, outreach programs and sexual health education amongst others.

The UA was ranked third last year and was the only college in the top five in both the 2013 and 2014 reports. Hamilton cited the UA’s commitment to providing sexual health services as the reason why the UA is able to routinely appear near the top

Wildcat and especially the pharmacy at Campus Health, which sells birth control and treats STDs on site.

Hardesty said it was not only consistency but never-ending improvement that keeps the UA near the top.

Overwhelming is the best way to describe the newest exhibit at the Arizona History Museum.

Opening to the public today, guests walk through a trail of mementos collected from the various shrines erected in the aftermath of the Jan. 8, 2011, shootings, which left six Tucson residents dead and another 13 wounded.

Hundreds of cards, posters, candles and teddy bears litter two rooms of the museum. The exhibit, which is titled “El Día de Los Muertos: Remembering January 8th,” takes guests through one room commemorating the deceased victims of the shootings and then another displaying the outpour of community sentiment in the days following the tragedy.

Much of the sentiment is addressed to former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was one of the 13 wounded.

Encouraging words from local school children and community leaders are etched across various tiles and rocks scattered throughout the exhibit.

“Every time you walk through here you find something new,” said Julia Arriola, the exhibit curator.

Parking fees lowered to compete with Ariz. cities

BY HOLLY HALSTEAD The Daily Wildcat

Tucson City Council unanimously voted to reduce the price of parking tickets across the board in the city of Tucson on Oct. 21. The new changes are set to take effect early next year.

Currently, Tucson levies a fine for City Court processing fees and a state tax fee on

each parking ticket, together totaling $36.60. With the elimination of this additional charge, City Council significantly reduced the prices of parking violations, which were previously among the highest in the state.

These reductions put Tucson on par with other Arizona jurisdictions.

Pet overpopulation prompts reform

BY JUSTIN SAYERS

Arizona Sonora News Service

Anais Orantez holds out a blue toy for Luna, a 2-year-old brown-and-white Rottweiler mix, in the outdoor area of the Pima Animal Care Center.

Locked eye-to-eye, Anais throws the ball, but 85-pound Luna doesn’t flinch. Instead, she runs up to 10-year-old girl and begins licking her face.

Luna is one of the lucky ones.

Just one month after arriving as a stray at the center, she exits through green, swinging double doors with Anais and her dad, Manuel Ortiz, and hops into the family’s silver Chevy Malibu.

She has a home.

The rising number of stray animals is a state and national problem, officials said. With an estimated 8 million animals in shelters in the U.S., Arizona ranks second to Los Angeles County in terms of areas with the highest pet overpopulation rates, according to the Arizona Humane Society.

A mixture of a push to move toward no-kill practices, a lack of financial and physical resources and a warm climate create the perfect storm for Arizona animal shelters.

Pima Animal Care Center, or PACC, is the largest pet adoption agency in Southern Arizona. The facility was built in 1968 and needs renovations to accommodate the rising number of dogs and cats, according to the center.

Challenges include too many animals per kennel, too much noise, not enough quarantine space, limited space for cats, a lack of natural lighting and inadequate medical facilities, center officials say.

The center, which doesn’t turn away any pet in need of care, took in 24,332 animals in the last fiscal year.

Pima County residents will vote Nov. 4 on Proposition 415, a nearly $23 million bond proposal to pay for a renovated shelter. If it passes, bonds would be issued in January and construction would begin around July 2016.

The bond would cost the average homeowner $3 a year.

Kim Janes, the center’s chief of external affairs, said PACC was originally designed to warehouse pets, which gets in the way of the current goal of saving as many animals as possible.

Vince Rabago, co-chairman of Pets Are Worth Saving, a campaign to help pass Proposition 415, notes that the

UAPD sends crime alert about assault

BY ETHAN MCSWEENEY The Daily Wildcat

A man assaulted a woman while she was exercising at Tumamoc Hill on Monday morning, police said.

According to a crime alert issued by the University of Arizona Police Department on Tuesday, the man ran into the woman, knocking her down. The man then attempted to pin the woman to the ground, but the woman was able to fight him off and yelled for help. The woman was not injured in the incident, police said.

The man fled in an unknown direction, UAPD said in the alert.

The man is described as a Hispanic individual in his 40s and was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and brown shorts.

PARKING FROM PAGE 1

Drivers who receive parking tickets under the new system will be paying the fines directly to Park Tucson, the city’s parking enforcement agency, rather than paying City Court, as it is in the current system.

The driver will have 30 days to decide whether they will pay the ticket or contest it in court. If they do not pay within the first 30 days because they are contesting the ticket and are still found to be at fault, drivers will incur additional fines, including the $36.60 fee City Council eliminated in order to lower the fines.

Matt Kopec, the management analyst for Ward 3 City Council member Karin Uhlich, said the new system will streamline the process for the first 30 days by cutting out the need to pay at City Court.

According to a memorandum from City Council’s Oct. 21 meeting, while the city of Tucson estimates the revenue from parking fines will remain fairly consistent with that of previous years, Park Tucson, formerly ParkWise, will incur approximately $100,000 in additional administrative fees.

Donovan Durband, Park Tucson’s program administrator, said the reduction of fees would not lead to the distribution of more tickets.

Much of the land on Tumamoc Hill, which is located west of “A” Mountain, is owned by the UA. UAPD said the investigation into the assault is ongoing.

Supervisors could have taken other measures to find money for the project.

Miller noted that the total cost to taxpayers is $22.8 million, even though the project costs only $18.5 million. Lesher said the extra money accounts for the cost of inflation and contingency since construction is not slated to begin for another year or more.

“The $22 million is the cap, not the floor,” Lesher said. “Yes we believe that the project will cost $18 million, but it’s always wise to look at what contingency or inflation might do.”

Janes said he believes Proposition 415 is another way of attacking pet overpopulation in the county because a renovated shelter would provide the resources and space necessary for veterinary efforts.

The Board of Supervisors also recently increased funding to conduct significant spay and neuter services for pet owners in the community.

“We need to do what we can to eliminate our overpopulation problem in our community,” Janes said.

“We are always continuously improving our resources to better meet the needs of U of A students,” Hardesty said.

Hardesty said one way Campus Health has improved its resources in recent years is through the creation of Free Condom Friday, an event that occurs every Friday at Campus Health where students can obtain a variety of free condoms.

Hamilton said one thing that is often mistaken with the report card is people think the report is referring to the UA’s students rather than the programs on campus.

“It’s not really speaking about students,” Hamilton said. “It’s about [our] services.”

Hamilton said despite the services available, student habits have not dramatically changed in the time she has been working at the UA. “I think that we have continued to provide more services, but every year there’s new students that come on campus and many of them think ‘It won’t happen to me,’” Hamilton said. “That hasn’t changed over the years.”

The staff gave their input on how UA students can become more sexually healthy.

Hardesty said increasing the awareness for the services on campus could help in and of itself.

“I think we could always improve on reaching students and letting them know that campus health is here and we’re here for them and we have lots of friendly staff here that really want to help them be successful and healthy in college,” Hardesty said.

Megan McKendry, the violence prevention specialist at the Oasis Program, said she would tell students that one of the best ways to improve the community is to change the way students talk about and deal with instances of sexual assault.

“My biggest piece of advice would be probably to believe survivors and to take care of themselves, their friends and the people in their community,” McKendry said.

“To become active bystanders and speak out against sexual violence, whether that’s through challenging language that supports rape all the way through intervening against a potential incident of sexual assault.”

Both Hardesty and Hamilton said the Oasis was one of the most important reasons the UA is ranked highly.

“My message is: If you’re going to be sexually active, you need to plan and prepare and do whatever you can to reduce your risks to make sex safer,” Hamilton said. “That just makes sense.”

“Those are two completely independent factors,” Durband said, “and even with the additional administrative costs, we have enough surplus in other areas that we are projecting that we will be able to absorb those costs.”

Durband said the money from the fines is split up and about half of it goes to the state of Arizona, while some goes into the general fund.

Durband added that the current makeup of a ticket consists of a base fine based on what kind of violation occurred plus a state tax, a city court fee with state taxes added on and a $13 charge for the equipment used by law enforcement.

Although these changes will greatly affect drivers all over the city of Tucson, especially those who frequent downtown, they will have no effect on students parking at the UA. Mark Napier, associate director of operations at Parking and Transportation Services, confirms that since the tickets given at the UA do not come from Park Tucson or the Tucson Police Department, but rather the University of Arizona Police Department, the reduction will have no effect on tickets received at the university.

Ives also said in her email that she thinks cultural appropriation in Halloween costumes is a problem everywhere and not limited to the university. Ives said in the email that some greek chapters have programs aimed to promote education on diversity.

“But I think it is an area of opportunity for the entire community, as not all chapters do workshops on cultural competency or diversity,” Ives said in her email statement.

Brittany Maldonado, member of the Sigma Lambda Gamma sorority, said culturally insensitive Halloween costumes are problems that needs to be fixed.

“I think the [UA] should do a little more than sending out an email to the greek community regarding … culturally insensitive costumes,” Maldonado said.

Bradley said a lack of understanding of a culture represented in a Halloween costume is what makes the costume racially insensitive and that it’s “costumeing” a person’s being.

“As people of color, we don’t get to take it off,” Bradley said. “I don’t get to stop being black just because it’s not Halloween anymore. It’s this idea of, ‘Oh, I get to enjoy the fun aspects of a culture, but I don’t have to endure the implications that come along with that.’”

Bradley said Halloween costumes that are caricatures of a certain cultural group are microaggressions and what the Delta Delta Delta sorority members did Monday evening is a microaggression.

“Just because it’s not explicit doesn’t mean it’s not racist,” Bradley said. ­— Christiana Silva contributed to this article

Your Views

In response to “Group protests sorority over ‘culturally-insensitive’ costumes,” by Meghan Fernandez (Oct. 28) I am both Hispanic and gay. I have a million and one stereotypes thrown at me daily. … I love when people wear clothes from my culture or when I see men dress flamboyantly “gay.” It lets me know they aren’t afraid to be seen as the person I AM. So why are we so disgusted by people who want to look like us?

— arturo You can appreciate another person’s culture without appropriating it. … If you really want to understand a culture, you sit back and listen and learn you don’t imitate it. To put it simply, you behave with respect.

— Christie Humphries It also sounds like the members were verbally attacked rather than simply being corrected regarding their mistake.

Attacking instead of teaching will not get our campus anywhere in regards to cultural education.

— anonymous Who the hell are you saying was attacked? It was a peaceful demonstration, obviously. You all probably think black face and Ray Rice costumes are okay. There are thousands and thousands of other things that they could have chosen to wear.

— wtf_arizona, responding to anonymous There are many different types of racism, but I think it’s just as bad to try to take away someone’s freedom of creativity.

Just because you disagree with something doesn’t mean you can always change it, and this seems like something extremely petty and a definite overreaction to a tiny dent in a way bigger problem.

— LOL As a fraternity member myself, we take it upon ourselves to create a zero-tolerance policy against things like this! It is a shame that this organization had members that thought it would be fun or OK! They pay thousands of dollars to be in mainstream sororities, what are they learning?

— USFC member 1 When there are far more pressing matters going on in the world, and on campuses, why do I want to read about this? If this were some kind of hate crime focused at putting down another culture, then by all means publish it, address it. But a few girls in sombreros and mustaches?

— Hector Lopez When I google “Mexican,” [I] get pictures of mustaches and sombreros. Google is culturally insensitive.

— Jason Trager You should also google “white privilege”…

— Jay Cee, responding to Jason Trager White privilege at its best! There are real race issues happening in this country, and to solve these complex issues starts with students and future leaders to understand that things like this are not OK. We live in a hate-filled society where Americans of Latino decent are seen as inferior or second-class citizens.

— MyOpinion [These] types of protests over “cultural insensitivity” are not helping people understand one another; it’s doing the exact opposite [by] creating polarization.

This white privilege trend is really getting out of hand, and it’s becoming more like an excuse rather than a proficient argument against institutional racism.

— In My Not So Humble Opinion I just came here for the comments! UA, your racism is showing!

— Jay Cee No one should be dressing up as another person to get laughs or make a joke out of them or who they are!

— DontHaveToAgreeWithMe No one should be afraid to dress however they want!

— Loud Noises, responding to DontHaveToAgreeWithMe My disappointment is in the MEChA group, mostly. They had a wonderful opportunity to educate and ruined it with their drama.

— AyAyAyArizona The university and the sorority have rules against things like this and have admitted to wrongdoing, but yet the people who called them out are getting backlash.

— Interesting I am so glad to see students being active and asking for change that promotes more equality on campus. Dressing up as someone else’s culture is NOT a harmless gesture. … It is disrespectful because it dehumanizes the people of that particular group. It does so by reducing them to that stereotype — everything that is unique, beautiful and meaningful is lost because the focus is on that stereotype.

‘No’ is stronger than ‘yes’

BY Juliana Renzi The Daily Wildcat

A

ccording to The Guardian, students from over 60 schools filed official complaints last year to the federal government about their universities’ response to reported campus crimes, the most common of which were rape cases. Students are demanding their universities improve how they handle rape, such as Emma Sulkowicz, a student from Columbia University who has committed to carrying her mattress around campus until the university prosecutes the peer whom she claims raped her.

In reaction to this campus rape crisis, California governor Jerry Brown signed SB 967. Called the “Yes Means Yes” Law, it defines sexual assault on California campuses as the absence of continual affirmative consent, or “yes.”

This replaces the previous standard of “no means no,” where sexual assault was defined as when one party says “no.” The Arizona Board of Regents and the UA recently adopted a policy comparable to “yes means yes.”

The affirmative consent movement

Probably not.”

While McKendry is right that sex should never be something imposed upon a person who does not desire it, sex is not like theft. Sex can be consensual while getting your wallet stolen never is.

It should not be assumed someone wants sex, but in the hazy back-and-forth of campus hook-up culture, asking for permission multiple times could break the mood or be taken the wrong way.

The best way to clear things up is saying “no,” and we should encourage a culture that empowers people to say they want to stop.

This burden should not be one party’s, and a verbal “no” is not the only way to define limits. However, it is less ambiguous than a repeated “yes” and encourages a culture where students feel comfortable communicating clearly about sex.

The absence of “yes” does not always mean “no,” and the absence of “no” does not mean “yes.”

But “no” always means “no.” Let’s not confuse a system that needs strengthening with one that needs to be replaced.

promotes healthier conversations about sex among university students, and more discussion is surely necessary between partners to discourage misunderstandings.

But sometimes, the most effective way for that to happen is by saying “no.”

Part of the ‘yes means yes’ policy involves having continual, clear consent. It implies asking if a partner is okay at each step of the way. While not every person will remember to check continuously — or even be aware they should do so — everyone should have the power to say “no” when they feel uncomfortable. It is harder to pause to check in consistently than to communicate one time that a line has been crossed.

Under “No Means No,” the partner that feels uncomfortable has the burden of saying “no.” While undoubtedly hard, it’s the only way to be certain that the other person knows they should stop.

Megan McKendry, the violence prevention specialist for the Oasis Program on campus, disagrees, however. “‘Yes means yes’ policies represent an important and positive shift, one that will help combat sexual violence in U.S. campus communities,” McKendry said. “‘No means no’ policies assume that consent is present unless someone physically or verbally resists.

Would you assume you could take someone’s wallet if they didn’t say ‘no’ or push you away?

Let’s give ‘yes means yes’ policy a loud ‘Oh God, yes!’

BY Katelyn Kennon The Daily Wildcat

I

’ve never seen a slope slippier than the one everyone seems to be hurling themselves down over “yes means yes” policies.

Addressing the issue of campus rape with research, victim and reality based logic should be something to celebrate.

Instead, no one seems able to fathom what sexual pleasure looks like or understand that rape is a conscious act — not one that happens in a vacuum.

There’s talk of contracts and waivers, as though suited-up bureaucrats will be waiting to whip out a pen as soon as a student thinks about whipping it out.

But affirmative consent laws are not revolutionary or radical. They are the codification of the mindset those within the field of sexual assault prevention, education and even — gasp — those having responsible, respectful sex have held for years. A big problem in most sectors of academia is a discomfort around talking about sex politics: who instigates, who navigates and what that realistically looks like.

But those in our student body haven’t been provided with enough examples of what they were probably already doing, leading to misconceptions and panic about “gray areas.”

Even during the quickest quickie, consensual sex does not “just happen”; there are agreements, negotiations and compromises. There are escalations from kissing to oral sex and penetrative sex, each involving a new set of check-ins.

There’s eye contact and dirty talk. You notice how their body responds to your touch

There are rules about what a victim can and cannot be, what an attacker should look like and how those two parties must interact for rape to occur. A huge part of that are the questions: Did you scream, did you punch, did you run, did you say “no”? Was your struggling adequate?

And if you didn’t try hard enough to stop it, some part of you consented.

Compliance is survival, not consent.

Compliance is something studies say 12-50 percent, and sometimes as many as 88 percent, of sexual assault victims will experience through tonic immobility: an unlearned, instinctive state, like playing dead in animals, that is intended to decrease a threat to bodily security.

These victims will not fight or flee. They will freeze — be incapable of speech, movement and even of maintaining a regular heartbeat.

And under “no means no” laws, up to one half of university rape victims might not be able to seek recourse for the violence against them, even when that recourse is only, like at the University of Toledo, a $25 fine or, like at the University of Colorado at Boulder, a five- to seven-page reflective essay.

With our new yes-positive definition of consent, the UA has, in one sense, made awesome, enthusiastic sex a campus policy, and, in another, worked to seal the rifts between what most people believe rape to be and what it actually is.

Should we be proud of the UA for adopting these laws?

Oh God, yes!

and what sounds they make. Your partner is kissing or touching back. If your safe word is “apple,” they’re saying “orange.”

Some personalized, agreed-upon version of this — without coercion or incapacitating substances and continuing throughout the sex act — is what “yes means yes” is asking of students.

But sometimes, during sex, there are ambiguous situations. Maybe there’s a nonincapacitating amount of drugs involved, or you’re complete strangers or you have no idea whether your partner’s look means yes or no.

That’s when you can speak up: “Are you into this?” “Is this OK?” “Do you want me to stop?”

Or if that feels too awkward, even, “Yeah, you like that, don’t you?” or “I want you to tell me how you want it.”

If the response is silence, you can assume the answer is “no.” “No” can be assumed.

“Yes” can’t.

Many seem horrified by this prospect.

It’s too much of a burden to ask people to have a serious, or sexy, conversation during intercourse.

But, commonality of these exchanges aside, when people consent to having sex, they are already bearing potential burdens.

They could contract a sexually-transmitted disease, get pregnant or be humiliated and hurt.

Consent should come before all of these, not because someone doesn’t want to be called a rapist, but because they care about the safety, comfort and pleasure of the person or people with whom they are engaging in sex.

And if you see your partner as an object, don’t care about their enjoyment or pain and don’t consider their voice before, during and after sex, you are a rapist, and you deserve punishment.

Rape isn’t something that “just happens.”

Rape is the act of a conscious predator who seeks out vulnerable prey.

1239 N. 6th Ave.

An unknown woman was reported for shoplifting from Highland Market on Oct. 17.

A University of Arizona Police Department officer responded to Highland Market after receiving a call from the store’s security officer. The security officer described the woman and that he saw her walking on the east side of Highland Avenue, but that a search of the area yielded no results.

The officer contacted the security officer upon arrival and was told the woman was carrying a bag of chips. It appeared as though she was going to open the bag and start eating the chips without paying for them.

The woman saw the security officer and stopped trying to open the bag; she placed it under her arms and got in line to pay for the chips. The security officer said he believed he recognized the woman from previous encounters at the Highland Market under similar circumstances.

The woman was in a long line at the register and began to move toward the register near the exit. Once she was near the exit, she ran out the door and went toward Highland Avenue.

The officer opened the door and yelled for her to come back and pay for the chips, but the woman just put her head down and ran across the street. The security officer said that once she crossed the street, she began to walk north on Highland Avenue, and he lost sight of her.

The officer asked if there was any surveillance video. The officer was told the security officer had not looked at the tapes yet but that they probably recorded what occurred.

A non-UA affiliate was arrested for violating his exclusionary order on Oct. 19.

A UAPD officer was on bike patrol above the Manuel T. Pacheco Integrated Learning Center when he noticed a man walking toward the Student Union Memorial Center. The officer recognized the man from previous contacts and knew he had an exclusionary order.

The officer made contact with the man and asked if his exclusionary order was still active. The man responded that he did not know.

The officer asked the individual where he went on campus.

The man informed the officer that he went to the ILC. He was using a computer when he decided to get some coffee from the SUMC. The officer informed the man that he had violated his exclusionary order. The man told the officer he only came on campus because his computer was not working and he needed to use a library computer.

The officer was also told the individual had an outstanding Tucson Police Department warrant. The individual was placed under full custodial arrest, was handcuffed and was placed in the back of a police vehicle.

Two UA students were diverted to the Dean of Students Office in reference to a charge of minor in possession of spirituous liquor in body on Oct. 19.

A UAPD officer saw two men walking southbound on Park Avenue around 1 a.m. One individual stumbled slightly as he walked, and the other also stumbled and swayed side-to-side.

The officer made contact with the individuals to inquire why they were walking in such a way.

The individuals identified themselves. The one’s eyes were red and glassy, his face was flushed, his speech was slurred and an odor of intoxicants emitted from his breath as he spoke. The other had red eyes and an odor of intoxicants on his breath.

Neither gave indications of being in medical distress.

One individual repeatedly said another police department had recently contacted him three times in reference to alcohol violations and that he would lose a $30,000 scholarship if it happened again. Neither admitted to consuming alcohol or said where they had come from.

The Daily Wildcat

Despite going 1-1 in its most recent road trip, the Arizona volleyball team held firm at No. 15 in the latest edition of the AVCA coaches poll. Arizona volleyball head coach Dave Rubio should appreciate that, considering how poorly the team played against Oregon in its defeat.

That game against the Ducks saw Arizona commit 22 attack errors and record a team hitting percentage of just .079. Oregon went on to sweep Arizona in straight sets, limiting the Wildcats to less than 20 points each set.

Luckily for the Wildcats, they handled Oregon State in an impressive fashion, saving their No. 15 national ranking.

The Beavers had a miniscule team hitting percentage of .061, and

other than an explosive second set, played much like Arizona did against Oregon. The Wildcats recorded 109 digs, the most in the conference this year and sixth most in program history.

To be fair, Arizona was helped out by the No. 16, 18 and 19 ranked teams from last week all falling, thus making it highly unlikely that the Wildcats would slide down the rankings.

the award covers four categories: classroom, character, community and competition.

During her senior season, Kingdon leads the Wildcats in kills (394), kills per set (5.32), total attacks (1087) and total points (432.5).

Kingdon was named one of the 30 original candidates for the award in September and will have to wait until December to hear if she wins.

the Wildcats their second loss on the year. At the time, Arizona players were shocked they could not finish each of the three sets. The sets ended with Colorado winning by three, four and two points.

If Rubio is smart, he’ll play it cool with the media while secretly pumping up his players throughout practice this week.

Kingdon named as award finalist

Revenge factor

After the Arizona football team exacted revenge on the Washington State Cougars this past weekend, Arizona volleyball has a chance to do the same on a different level.

Arizona has lost to Texas, Colorado, Stanford, Washington and Oregon this season. With Colorado coming to town this weekend, the Wildcats get their first chance at revenge.

Colorado swept Arizona in straight sets at the start of October, handing

Arizona volleyball fans have just five more chances to see the Wildcats at home this year. The Wildcats are currently 9-2 at home, only losing to two undefeated teams: No. 1 Stanford and then-No.3 Washington.

The Wildcats went 16-3 last season in the friendly confines of McKale Center.

Arizona senior outside hitter Madi Kingdon just continues to rack up the accolades during her final season as a Wildcat. According to an Arizona volleyball press release, Kingdon was named one of the 10 finalists for the Senior CLASS award. The award is given to the top senior in each sport, taking into account aspects both on and off the court.

According to the press release,

Women’s hoops looks forward at annual media day frustrating but exciting nonetheless. There’s always another level, as far as I’m concerned. I think we have good days, and we have the days Despite being tabbed to finish last in the where we’re not as consistent as I would like.”

t was anticlimactic, yet the talk of the nation.

On Tuesday, the College Football playoff selection committee announced the first ever college football playoff top 25 rankings. In an ESPN special, the 12-person committee set the much speculated top four: Mississippi State at No. 1, Florida State at No. 2, Auburn at No. 3 and Ole Miss at No. 4. The first two teams out are Oregon at No. 5 and Alabama at No. 6.

The Arizona Wildcats ended up ranking 12th overall over teams such as Baylor, Nebraska and Ohio State. In total, five Pac-12 Conference teams made the first rankings: Oregon, Arizona, ASU at No. 14, Utah at No. 17 and UCLA at No. 22.

To put that into perspective, every Pac-12 team is ranked at or above their AP Top 25 rankings.

Rich Rodriguez has maintained his belief that these rankings don’t matter. Just on Monday during his weekly press conference, Rodriguez said he cares more where the team is down the road rather than at the moment.

For fans of an Arizona team that wasn’t even supposed to be here, there’s no reason to be upset over Oregon being ranked ahead of Arizona or even being ranked outside the top 10.

Women’s golf finishes in 10th place

BY DANIELA VIZCARRA The Daily Wildcat

Arizona women’s golf finished in 10th place at the 13th annual Landfall Tradition on Sunday in Wilmington, N.C. The team finished the two-day tournament with a total score of 881.

The Wildcats finished the tournament in three rounds with scores of 293 and 299 on Saturday and 288 to end the tournament on Sunday.

UA women’s golf head coach

Laura Ianello said she was not pleased with the team’s performance.

“Unfortunately, we did not play well,” Ianello said. “The team came off of a pretty strong finish at the Annika Tournament finishing second, and this last weekend, we took 10th. All of my girls had decent rounds in Wilmington on the first day, but they all struggled on the second day.”

Arizona played against 18 teams, including No. 3 Duke, which is the reigning NCAA Women’s Golf

Champions.

The Wildcats had three players finish in the top 50 out of 18 teams.

Senior Manon Gidali, sophomore Wanasa Zhou and junior Lindsey Weaver all placed in the top 50.

Gidali tied for 11th place with a total score of 216, Zhou tied for 41st place with a score of 222 (+6) and Weaver tied for 49th place with a score of 223 (+7). Senior Kendall Prince just missed the top 50, tying for 55th place with a score of 225 (+9), and sophomore Jessica Vasilic finished tied for 69th place

with her score of 228 (+12).

“The girls all seemed to struggle on the second day, which really killed our momentum to get a topplace finish,” Ianello said.

Wake Forest placed first at the tournament with a total score of 865 (+1), Alabama placed second with a total score of 868 (+4), and South Carolina and Notre Dame tied for third place with scores of 871 (+7).

HOT & NOT

THE ARIZONA hockey team leaves the court after Arizona’s 4-3 loss to Liberty University at the Tucson Convention Center Arena on Saturday. The Wildcats lost 4-3 in back-to-back games against Liberty this past weekend.

BY JAMES KELLEY

It was a rough Saturday for the state of Washington’s college football teams against Arizona’s. Washington State lost to Arizona 59-37, Washington lost to ASU 24-10 and FCS No. 2 Eastern Washington lost 28-27 to NAU.

The Daily Wildcat

Arizona football beat Washington State 59-37 to become bowl eligible. After missing out on bowls from 1999 to 2007, the Wildcats have now been bowl eligible six times since then.

Pac-12 media picked Arizona women’s basketball to finish 12th in the conference last week. The Wildcats expect to be on the “not” side of the spectrum again this year.

Pac-12 Conference media picked Arizona men’s basketball to win the conference last week. The Wildcats were picked to win the league for the third year in a row and got all but one first-place vote.

Arizona hockey was swept at home by Liberty over the weekend. The Wildcats have lost four of their last five matches.

Arizona women’s tennis senior Laura Oldham beat Portland’s Sophie van den Aarssen 7-6, 6-3 to win the black singles bracket championship on Sunday at the Matador Invitational.

However, if Arizona is to break its nine-year

NCAA Tournament drought, it will need the freshmen to jump in right away and provide not just depth, but consistent, productive play.

With half the team still adjusting to Arizona’s up-tempo style, that’s not an easy thing to ask for.

Of course, none of this really even matters right now, but it still says a lot over what the selection committee values when ranking teams. What’s obvious is that the committee values head-to-head matchups only between similarly rated teams, something that will be evident in the coming weeks.

Notre Dame dropped from No. 6 in the AP poll to No. 10 in the playoff rankings, and Georgia dropped from No. 9 in the AP poll to No. 11 in the playoff rankings.

TCU jumped from No. 10 in the AP poll to No. 7 in the playoff rankings.

Despite Alabama ranking No. 3 in the latest AP poll and going on a tear lately, Ole Miss defeated Alabama earlier this year and is rightfully ranked above the Crimson Tide. It’s not unbelievable to think Alabama would be in the top four had it had not lost to Ole Miss at the beginning of the month.

Things are only going to get wilder, too.

Auburn and Ole Miss play on Saturday, Alabama and Mississippi State play on Nov. 15, Auburn and Alabama play on Nov. 29 and Mississippi State and Ole Miss play on Nov. 29.

Taking into consideration that the team is still in its first few weeks of practice, the sometimes rough transitions have to be put aside in place of the big picture.

Third installment detracts franchise

BY ALEX GUYTON

The Daily Wildcat

T

his Halloween, don’t go viral. It doesn’t help that the previous two installments of this series are so strong, but, even without comparison to its brethren, “V/H/S: Viral” is a consummate disappointment. It’s a horror movie that doesn’t have any scares.

“V/H/S: Viral” is the third installment of the horror anthology series that started with “V/H/S” in 2012 and continued on with “V/H/S/2” in 2013. The initial film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival with rumored claims of people passing out during its late night screening. Since then, this found footage series has gained a cult following for its original concept, creative stories, legitimate scares and a dash of nudity and humor.

The films all follow a similar structure. There’s a frame story that holds different, unrelated vignettes together, and everything is shot in shaky-cam style a la “The Blair Witch Project.”

The great advantage to the anthology form is that it allows a great variety of stories. One story can be told from the GoPro point-of-view of a man that turns into a zombie, while the next can revolve around an Indonesian cult that makes Heaven’s Gate look like a fun slumber party.

However, the number of shorts has diminished with each installment. The first film had five stories, the second had four and the third installment only has three.

“V/H/S/: Viral” also clocks in at an incredibly, or mercifully, brief 82 minutes, 14 minutes shorter than the second film and a whopping 34 minutes shorter than the original.

Of course, a short run time is not inherently a bad thing, and may even be a benefit if it can pack a stout punch in its brief time.

Unfortunately, the frame story and three shorts are the weakest installments thus far.

The frame story is the most expansive of the three, with the streets of Los Angeles replacing the

claustrophobic, rundown houses of the first two. The police are chasing an ice cream truck across town, and Kevin (uncredited on IMDb) steps outside to capture the events on his phone so he can upload them to the Internet. However, as the ice cream truck passes his house, the truck somehow abducts his girlfriend, Iris (Emilia Zoryan). Kevin hops on his bike and gives chase.

Now, on to the three shorts.

The first is “Dante the Great” and shows a magician in possession of a cape that is much more than illusion and sleight of hand. The cape allows him to perform real feats of the supernatural, but at a cost: He must feed the cape with human lives.

This segment adapts a slightly more polished documentary look, featuring talking-head interviews.

The aesthetic goes against what has become standard for the series and feels out of place.

The final, special-effects heavy showdown between Dante (Justin Welborn) and one of his female magician’s assistants has some neat moments, but, ultimately, the short is simply not scary.

The second short, titled “Parallel Monsters,” sees Alfonso (Gustavo Salmeron) open a portal to an alternate dimension. He and his doppelganger agree to swap universes for 15 minutes, and the “original” Alfonso enters into a world that may or may not be hell.

Pornographic screams with no source echo throughout the alternate house, and there seems to be some kind of sexual ritual involving human remains about to take place between his alternate wife and two other men.

This thread is more in line with previous “V/H/S” outings, as creeping unease explodes into the truly insane and bizarre. However, again, the scares are just not there.

The final strand, “Bonestorm,” follows a couple of idiotic, teen skateboarders as they try to land tricks and make a video. They find themselves in a concrete wash in Mexico perfect for a kickflip, as well as for a satanic ritual to summon something from beneath.

Three to four different camera angles are used throughout this short, making for some chaotic and visceral editing as the boys fight off

8383 PRODUCTIONS

apparently endless skull-masked thugs.

It makes for an exciting action scene, but, again, there’s nothing to make you jump out of your seat.

Merely thinking about the first

two films and their disturbing tales sends more of a shiver down the spine than this installment. If you’re looking for some true horror to stick with you this Halloween, seek out the predecessors to this pitiful

EXHIBITION

COURTESY OF MARK FLORES

CHROMEO PERFORMS at the Rialto Theatre on Oct. 10. DJ Wave Racer opened the concert with a series of Duck Sauce tracks.

BY MARK FLORES

KAMP Student Radio

Chromeo isn’t a household name, but when the Canadian duo decided to venture to the Rialto Theatre, it was tough to overlook its ridiculous talent and showmanship.

The interesting cohort includes David Macklovitch and Patrick Gemayel, known as Dave 1 and P-Thugg. Together, they are known as electro-funk/disco group Chromeo, and they have been creating great music since 2002. Not many know about their work, but once their music hits your ears, you’ll only want more. For instance, their most recent project, White Women, consists of tracks that will each fill your ears with pleasure.

Chromeo played at the Rialto on Oct. 10, and it was one heck of a concert. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but being the ninth person in line an hour before the show started, I wasn’t expecting much. Of course, Tucson isn’t where this music scene is, but if this band was as good as people said it was, I was wondering why there wasn’t a huge line going down Congress Street. Boy, was I in for a surprise.

To start off the concert, the opening act was Wave Racer, a disc jockey who had threw some semi-average bass in the audience’s face and played some Duck Sauce tracks as well. After

that performance, the stage went pitch-black, and the whole crowd went absolutely crazy. A thin, black-costumed man wearing Ray-Bans with a ridiculously gorgeous haircut walked on stage and opened his mouth — and it might have been the most glorious event in the history of any indie concert. At the same time, another gentleman walked onto the stage wearing the total opposite: adidas sneakers with some baggy pants and a large crewneck. Did I mention he had a gold chain around his neck?

Every song Chromeo played had the crowd moving, and the pair’s lighting effects made it 10 times better. These performers knew how to put on a performance. They even had mirrors to give the light show a greater impact during the concert; it was a smart and innovative move on Chromeo’s part.

After the show, it was impossible for anyone to say they weren’t blown away. It was the best concert that I had ever been to, and you better believe that I’ll be getting a ticket the next time Chromeo is in Arizona.

The live versions of some of the songs were better than their digital equivalents. Make sure to listen to Chromeo before it is too late.
