Medical marijuana restrictions debated By Yael Schusterman ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
The Pima County Board of Supervisors approved the staff recommendations to place tight restrictions on zoning if the Medical Marijuana Act passes in the November election. Proposition 203, the Medical Marijuana Act, identifies illnesses that would qualify patients to use marijuana.
It was placed on the ballot by citizen initiative and follows 14 other states that have already legalized marijuana for medical purposes. Pima County Attorney, Barbara LaWall, presented the staff recommendations from the Pima County Development Services to the Board of Supervisors during Tuesday’s meeting. She stated that Proposition 203 does not require a pharmacy to
dispense the medical marijuana; therefore it will not be distributed like any other medication. It permits that the drug be grown at two locations: on site at a dispensary and at one off-site location per every dispensary. There are no limitations on quantity LaWall said, adding that the staff anticipates a high demand from the public. Those patients who qualify will be able to purchase 2.5 ounces of
medical marijuana every 14 days and will require a card containing their personal information and tracking number so the state can monitor how much marijuana they have been given. If the proposition becomes law, LaWall said the staff wants to ensure that the marijuana dispen-

Cohorts program fails
Upperclassmen disconnected from transitioning students By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Rachel Beech told it straight to the senate – its previous program had to go. “The cohorts just weren’t working,” said Beech, director of new student services in the student transitions office, who spoke to the Associated Students of the University of Arizona Senate at its Wednesday meeting about the office’s new direction for the program. The cohort program, started in the fall 2009 semester, supported the up to 1,000-student
Centennial Hall classes. Cohorts are upperclassmen who guide freshmen through the transition to college as well as through difficult or large classes. Cohorts from semesters past, however, remained disconnected from incoming students. They were neither enrolled in nor teaching assistants for the classes they were tasked to support, so they could not provide the directed support that students asked for. A system of support, now deemed Student Affairs Outreach, takes the place of these cohorts in groups that need extra aid or re-
main disconnected from campus, either Arizona Assurance scholars or students living off-campus their freshman year. “We wanted something that helps students’ progress academically,” Beech said, noting special attention is given to students in high-population freshman classes, such as Spanish 102, Chemistry 151 and Elaine V. Marchello’s Traditions and Cultures 104 general education class. Weekly “Wildcat Connection” emails connect students to “digital RAs” as Beech calls them, serving to provide a virtual way
to give to students what resident assistants give to on-campus freshman, class help and emotional support. The emails aid students in the Arizona Assurance program, an individually tailored freshman scholarship program, or those who live off campus during their first year. Beech’s information was followed by the other informational piece, representatives from the Task Force on Classroom Responders. “This effort has been tried ASUA, page 3
Leadership. Academically focused. Gentleman-like. Athletic. Social. These are the characteristics that the new fraternity on campus, Theta Chi, expects their members to embody in order to break the traditional stereotypes of fraternity men. “I went through the rush process, and I wasn’t happy with the way that other fraternities marketed themselves,” said Jared Jacobovitz, the president of Theta Chi and economics senior. “I wasn’t happy that everything was about the party instead of what, in my opinion, Greek Life should have been, which is more about helping the community and bettering yourself.” A book called “The Accidental Billionaires,” by Ben Mezrich, inspired Jacobvitz’s vision for the new fraternity. The book is about the creation of Facebook but also talks about the Harvard Final Clubs. “They are the most prestigious clubs on campus that everyone wants to join,” he said. “It’s a collection of people who are doing something with their lives but will eventually become a network of people who have the same core values and beliefs. That’s what I wanted to build on this campus.” Theta Chi currently has 35 members and is growing rapidly. FRATERNITY, page 8
Campus Health screens for depression By Brenna Goth ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT More than 25 percent of American adults suffer from mental illnesses each year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Campus Health Service and the National Alliance on Mental Illness of Southern Arizona are bringing events to campus
this week to inform the UA and Tucson communities as a part of Mental Illness Awareness Week, which includes educational events nationwide. Mental illnesses are classified as one of three types: mood disorders, such as bipolar disorder, thought disorders, such as schizophrenia, or anxiety disorders, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder.

“These are biologically based diseases,” said Scott Whitley, resource specialist and trainer for the National Alliance on Mental Illness of Southern Arizona. “They can be treated, and if treated correctly, controlled but not cured.” College-aged students are among those most often diagnosed with depression, according to Debra Cox-Howard, mental health clinician for Counseling

optical engineering sophomore You’re wearing a rugby tee-shirt; are you on the team or just reppin’ the t-shirt? I am on the team. It’s my first year. I play lock which is a forward, kind of like a football linebacker kind of thing. So basically you know how to pop, lock and drop it on the field? We don’t do much dancing on the rugby field. What is the scariest part about being on the field? Nothing. What’s scary about it? It’s a game. What is the scariest aspect of your life, any scary moments? My car started to float away today in a river on the road. It sucked; I thought I was going to die. So what did you do? I just waited for the traction to start up again after screaming for minutes like a little girl. Have you seen the movie “Taxi” with Queen Latifah? I freaking love that movie. Don’t you wish your car could be lifted like that in situations like the one you just described? Nah, I like my car how it is. I have a Volkswagon GTI. Would you trade that in for the Batmobile? Who the hell wouldn’t trade their car in for the Batmobile? Do you consider yourself more the Joker or the Dark Knight? The Joker, I guess. Why? Your face is not green. Not today. I didn’t think about putting makeup on for this interview. But seriously, I don’t take things seriously very much. Have you ever stabbed yourself with a pencil? A couple of times, yes. In class, or where? While I was driving — it’s not funny; it went in to my eye, which is why I am cross-eyed now. Well, being cross-eyed is an optical illusion. I would know; I am an optical engineer. What do you plan on doing with an optical engineering degree? Solar panels or something, and lasers, and lenses and telescopes. I really have no idea what I want to do. Are you going to come up with some kind of modern day light-saber? I guess … If you had a lightsaber, what would you be doing with it right now?

UFOs to bring ‘great events,’ scientist predicts All those UFOs that have been spotted around China this year, closing down airports and causing general flying saucer mayhem and wonder, are on the increase. And “great events” will soon follow, an astronomer says. “First, I’d like to say something about the conception of ‘great events about UFOs,’” Wang Sichao, a planetary astronomer at Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told the Beijing Review.
“It does not mean large numbers of UFOs but refers to events of credible facts backed by observation. But these facts cannot yet be explained by existing scientific knowledge or natural phenomena,” he told the English-language weekly. Those are strong pro-UFO words from a scientist who, in September, dismissed UFO sightings over Hong Kong as “ghost images” — reflections of outdoor lamps caught by camera lenses.
Wang has investigated UFO sightings in China for nearly 40 years and described the many types of unidentified objects that have been seen: “bolide, light spot, spiral, fan, bright star, flying rod, ball lightning and V-shaped.” The astronomer has a theory as to why, over so many decades, there hasn’t been much progress in available UFO information — presuming some UFOs are a type of extraordinary vehicle. — AOL News

before but it didn’t take off,” said Jim Riley, associate professor of soil, water and environmental sciences and the task force’s chairman. Bill Neumann, Management Information Systems senior lecturer and director of projects for undergraduate and master’s programs, sat on the first committee and notes this one really had the legs to take off. This, in part, is why he feels they can achieve the goal of standardizing class clickers by the spring 2011 semester. “That was what was missing,” Neumann said of this committee’s thoroughness in the process. The UA and Arizona State University, would order 10,000 Turning Technologies clickers with this standardization. This large-scale contracting would allow a bundle for students to purchase, with a digital software and physical hardware
clicker to use throughout their time at the UA. “Look, we’re not saying this is the best one ever, but we are saying it can serve students better over their time here,” Riley said. “It’s not a good idea that you should have to have a whole bag of these (clickers) in order to attend school here.” The senate approved all funding requests, via the Monday consent agenda, which delineates club funding to ASUArecognized clubs, and the senate aid funding requests for office supplies. Most of the clubs seeking funding received at least part of their requests. The Jewish Voice for Peace committee tabled its $350 request until next Monday’s meeting, and the Dhamaka Indian Club’s $1,547 request fell below the committee’s usual two-week guidelines for approval and allocation of funds.

t the start of this school year, a five-year, $375 million grant was distributed among 28 programs geared toward lowering the pregnancy rate among teens. These programs, all of which were approved and funded by the Department of Health and Human Services and deemed effective by Mathematica Policy Research, will be offered to communities in search of additional or different education for their teens. Although costly, sexual education programs provided by organizations like The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, proved successful among adolescents and teens, while adults over 40 seem to have missed the memo. According to a recent study funded by Trojan condom manufacturer, Church & Dwight Co., and performed by sex researchers at Indiana University, 70 to 80 percent of adolescents claimed to have used condoms during their most recent vaginal intercourse. Another survey concluded that “U.S. teens are not as reckless as some people might think when it comes to sex, and they are much more likely to use condoms than people over 40,” according to a recent article in The Los Angeles Times. One distinction between people over 40 and adolescents and teens is the amount of sexual education available and often forced upon students in middle schools and high schools. Is it simply that middle-aged adults don’t understand the consequences of unprotected sex? That theory seems unlikely, considering the awkward sex talks kids claim to have had with their parents, many of which attempt to either scare their children from the activity or at least inform them on how to exercise damage control. So why do sexually active older adults neglect the rubber? First, someone’s age doesn’t automatically imply his or her level of understanding when it comes to sexual health. People need to be taught, and in this case it’s better to learn of the consequences in a classroom than from personal experience. The reality that sexual education has evolved and developed into more candid and detailed programs in grade schools means it’s possible that most middle and high school students are better informed on the topic than older adults. Only in recent generations has sex been so openly discussed, meaning that perhaps older adults are due for a sex-ed review; babies aren’t the only consequence of unprotected sex. Mind you, many of the adults over 40 who are practicing unprotected spent their youth amidst the uproar revolving around Alfred Kinsey’s controversial research. Generalizing and placing all older adults under this umbrella of ignorance and folly isn’t the intention, but some truth lies in the statistics that condoms are lacking in the older sexually active community, a statistic that would more than likely change if the consequences of unprotected sex were made clear. Based on the high condom use among young adults, it’s safe to conclude that sex-ed does work. Imposing views of abstinence or teaching a course filled with euphemisms and innuendoes will most likely leave students uninformed. The sexual education available to teens today is blunt, truthful and effective. The fact that sex-ed has a more open, realistic nature about it than it did a few generations back, may have something to do with the glaring differences in sexual behavior among the younger and older adults. — Alexandra Bortnik is a creative writing junior.

People who feel it is their business to know about my future,
hen you ask me what my plans are for after graduation, I often wonder if I should be honest or give you the answer you would like to hear. Usually I give the answer I think you are looking for, because I know you probably can’t handle the truth. You see, the truth is, the biggest decision I have made for after graduation is being hammered drunk for a good week or two. Beyond that, my life is an open book. Before you tell me how irresponsible I am, hear me out. There is still a semester and a half until graduation, which means I have the next seven months to figure my shit out. In these past four years of college I have mastered the art of procrastination, and I think it is only fitting to let this be my first application of it in the real world. Still not interested in getting off my back? Let me turn the tables on you. When did you know exactly what you wanted to do with your life? After college, did you become an overnight success? I am assuming the answer is no, and that regardless of your age, you still
It’s almost Halloween, get your costume!
What? You don’t have your costume yet? Not even an idea? You’d better just wait until next year, champ. I bet your favorite holiday is Arbor Day, you uninspired Communist. If you’re not prepared for the single most important holiday in every student’s life, then you are just another guy on Oct. 31 in a hoodie and jeans, explaining how you are “the abstract concept of God as one of us.” Halloween is the time for all of us to express ourselves in ways normally restricted by social norms and inhibitions, to pull out all the stops and become a fearsome creature of the night. Or, if you’re a girl, to dress like you’re going to an important interview at the Bunny Ranch. There are two formulas for awesome costumes on Halloween. If you are a guy, you must dress like a retro and ironic character from your youth, and put in the amount of effort equal to three Eagle Scout merit projects. Example: The giant ear of corn from “All That,” made to scale and composed of 10,000 real kernels of corn glued together. If you’re a girl, the formula becomes: ((The cutest thing you can thing of + cleavage)-dignity). I’m sure that somewhere out there exists a “Sexy Lady Spongebob” suit. I’d Google it to be sure, but I’m scared. Now use these formulas as a template, and get out there and get costumed. I’m hoping I’ll see even more full-sized Ghostwriters than usual, and even a few sexy Pikachus. — Johnny McKay is a media arts senior.
don’t know what you want to do “when you grow up.” So how can you expect me, at the ripe age of 21, to have it all figured out? It seems like you have always been incredibly concerned about my life. Since I graduated high school, you always feel the need to ask what I am going to college for. Well, if you want the simple answer: I am going to school to receive a bachelor’s degree. If you don’t know that is the reason people go to college, then my boy Antoine Dodson has a few words for you: “You are so dumb. You are really dumb.” Honestly, what kind of question is that? Based on your inquiry, though, I am considering hosting my own reality show post-undergrad. I figure people like you, who are so concerned with the path I am taking, will tune in every week. If Bravo doesn’t pick up the show, though, my future is looking more overcast than bright. I have no clue what I am going to do, nor do I care at this point. I wish that being a Toys “R” Us kid were still as viable an option as it was 15 years
What does my purse have to do with breast cancer?
ago, because I do not want to grow up. Can’t you see by constantly asking me what I am going to do once I graduate, you’re causing me more stress than my academic advisor? Save the nagging for someone who gets paid for it. Even she can see that my main focus right now should not be on the future but on the time I have left in school. I would be hard-pressed to name five friends’ post-UA plans. Do you know why? It’s not because I do not care about their future; I just care more about their sanity and well-being. This is a depressing time in a college student’s life. Within the year, we are expected to say goodbye to our glory days and face the real world, which we know is a harsh world. So please just let me hold onto these days, worry free. The only time your hounding questions will be welcomed around here is if you are asking because you want to offer me a job. — Mallory Hawkins is a communication senior.

Extending Bush tax cuts won’t fix economy
I like it on the table. My purse, that is. Not that my purse has anything to do with breast cancer. I just wanted you to notice my Facebook status, then refuse to explain what I mean by it even though it’s counter-productive to my intention of raising awareness. The campaign to raise breast cancer awareness via Facebook update went viral last year, when women were invited to post one-word statuses about the color of their bras without explaining to men what the color signified. This year’s campaign asks women where they like to leave their handbags, and once again leaves men out of the loop. As if there’s no such thing as man purses. Also, as if men can’t contribute to breast cancer awareness. The bra campaign was a huge success. Success, in this case, must be measured by how many men are left wondering about the logic of women. Or how many men think women are teases. No one cares about your purse, bud. If you weren’t playing an immature game, people would care about breast cancer. You’d think this would be obvious, but you raise awareness about an issue by making people aware of what you’re talking about. Don’t confuse awareness with attention. Also, you can learn more about National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and what you can do to actually help by visiting nbcam.org. Now that’s raising awareness. — Kristina Bui is a sophomore majoring in journalism and political science.
For some reason, people continue to doubt the fact that extending the Bush tax cuts will add to the deficit and instead rely on the debunked policy of supply-side economics. Since the presidency of Ronald Reagan, conservatives have argued that lower taxes will ultimately raise revenue due to increased consumption. This sounds nice, but administrations that adopted this policy have presided over huge deficits and low economic growth. The truth is that supplyside economics (or “voodoo economics,” according to former President George H.W. Bush) does not raise revenue. That relies on people actually spending the money they get back from the government, which history shows doesn’t happen. Even Alan Greenspan, Mr. Supply Side himself, has come out opposing the extention of the Bush tax cuts. Why is the deficit so large? Because of the unfunded Bush tax cuts and two unfunded wars. The original tax cuts lowered government revenue while spending stayed the same. The stimulus and bailouts may have added to the deficit, but they didn’t cause it. After 30 years of people promoting the idea that tax cuts ultimately raise revenue and 30 years of proof that they don’t, you would think people would abandon this fallacy. I’m not opposed to tax cuts — nobody likes higher taxes — but the current call to extend the Bush tax cuts is the result of populist pandering and not sound economic policy. — Andrew Shepherd is a political science senior.

POLICEBEAT By Lucy Valencia ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
Minors drinking
A car was pulled over at an intersection near campus after a University of Arizona Police Department officer saw it speeding Saturday at 12:48 a.m. After the officer stopped the car, two of the underaged UA students in the car were found to have consumed alcohol and were under 21 years of age. The two students, a man and a woman, were cited and released to the driver who had been stopped by the UAPD officer due to the fact that he was sober. At 12:48 a.m. that same night, a UAPD officer stopped the car for speeding and cited the driver after making contact. There were several passengers seated in the front passenger’s compartment and one riding in the back bed area. The officer contacted two of the subjects, one man who was riding in the front passenger’s compartment and a woman who was in the bed of the pickup truck. Upon contacting them, the officer learned that they were both UA students and both were exhibiting signs and symptoms of intoxication. The man emitted an odor of alcohol from his breath. The woman spoke to the officer out near the end of the truck, and she appeared to be very intoxicated: her speech was slurred and she exhibited poor balance while standing. In addition, the woman admitted to drinking. Her breath smelt strongly of alcohol. Both students said they had been at a party; however, the woman could not provide any information about the location or who had purchased the alcohol for the minors. The man was uncooperative regarding the contact with the officer and admitted to drinking four beers, insisting he had a designated driver. He also refused to give the officer any information about the party’s location or who purchased the alcohol. Both were cited and released to the driver. No evidence was collected, but code of conducts papers were completed.
Man found on toilet seat covered in vomit
A man was arrested on charges of minor in possession on Saturday at 5 a.m. At 2:30 a.m. a UAPD officer responded to a medical assist call at one of the residence halls on campus. Upon arrival, he met with a resident assistant on the eighth floor in the men’s bathroom. Inside the bathroom, a man was seated on a toilet seat covered in vomit. There was also vomit all over the floor surrounding him. The man told the officer that he had been drinking alone in his room. He said he drank about three-quarters of a fifth of vodka. Tucson Fire Department arrived and evaluated the intoxicated man. They determined that he needed to be transported to University Medical Center for further evaluation. A short while later, UMC security called UAPD and asked them to respond to the ambulance entrance of UMC because the man was attempting to walk away from the emergency room. The man was then cited and released back to the care of the hospital.
Student witnesses bike theft
An unknown male stole two bicycles and possibly a third from Babcock Residence Hall on Saturday. The bikes were owned by two UA students — one a man’s and one a woman’s. At 10:14 a.m. that day, a UAPD officer responded to the residence hall. A man who attended the UA as a student called 911, reporting that his friend’s bicycle had just been stolen and the suspect was headed east on Speedway Blvd. A UAPD officer responded to the location of the incident after the phone call, while several other officers searched the area in an attempt to find the suspect. The officer spoke with both the man, who had reported the incident, and the woman, whose residence hall the man had stayed the night at. The man told the officer that he had arrived at the woman’s residence hall last night at about 8:30 p.m. He left her residence hall the next morning at about 10:14 a.m. and noticed the man he had described at the bike racks where he had parked his bike, which were located in the middle of the complex. The student said to the suspect, “Is that your bike?” The suspect said, “You saw me unlock it, didn’t you?” The man said he could see the chain his friend used to lock up her bicycle hanging from the bike frame. The suspect then rode the bike around the building to the south and possibly headed east on Speedway Blvd. The man said that his black racer bike that had been parked next to his friend’s bike was also stolen. He did not see if the same suspect took both of their bikes or knew exactly when it was stolen. The officer recommended that they purchase U-Locks for their bikes, which makes them more difficult to steal. The officer searching the area did not make contact with anyone matching the description of the suspect. As the officer was leaving the location, another UA student flagged him down. He said that at approximately the same time this bike theft occurred, he saw someone matching the description of the suspect. The student said he saw the man drive up to the north bike racks in an SUV and lift a bike onto the back of a vehicle. He did not get a description of the bike and did not see if the male cut the lock off the cable. At this time, it is unclear if this is a third bicycle theft. An attempt to locate was broadcasted for the suspect, and UA police and Tucson police were both alerted to look out for the SUV.

V-ball ready for life on road By Alex Williams ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat
Fifth-year senior Alex Davis, left, and fellow “super seniors” Macke Mutz and Becky Barry have taken advantage of the experiences gained throughout their careers to become leaders on the 2010 Arizona soccer team. Head coach Lisa Oyen has counted on the three players heavily to help show the Wildcats’ 12 freshmen how to be college athletes.
Soccer’s ‘super seniors’ becoming super leaders By Michael Fitzsimmons ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT How long is five years? Consider what life was like in 2006 when Arizona soccer fifthyear seniors Macke Mutz, Alex Davis, and Becky Barry arrived on campus — Lebron James appeared as if he would never leave Cleveland, Brett Favre hadn’t retired for the first time yet, and Jersey Shore was still just a place to vacation. It’s no surprise that when the three self-proclaimed “super
Icecats prep for ACHA showcase By Daniel Gaona ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
It is a must win situation for the Icecats when they travel to Ohio for the American Collegiate Hockey Showcase this weekend, at least according to head coach Leo Golembiewski. “Those are three games that have to be won,” Golembiewski said. “There’s no doubt about that. It’s important that we get it done, so we’ve got to bring our A-game.” Arizona will play three games in the 18-team tournament in search of its first win of the season. No. 9 ASU swept UA in its season-opening series last week. Although the 0-2 Icecats lost both games, Golembiewski is hoping to see the same mentality on the ice. “I thought all-in-all our performance against Arizona State was certainly admirable,” he said. “We played them tough and had had a chance to perhaps win both games but fell short. We showed a lot of fight, a lot of intensity, a lot of spirit and we’re very happy with what we’ve seen so far. The players are upbeat about the season.” In Ohio, the Icecats will have to deal with more than just their opponents. They will be without ICECATS, page 10
seniors” were asked if it had felt like a long time since they first laced up for the Wildcats, all three responded at the same time, “Yep,” in a tone that implied it had been awhile. “It feels like it’s been a long time, but part of it feels like it was yesterday that we were freshmen,” Barry said. They call themselves “super seniors” not just because they’re the eldest players on the team, but because in their five years at Arizona, Mutz, Davis and Barry have all faced their share of
adversity on and off the field. Head coach Lisa Oyen, who was part of the recruiting process that landed the three seniors in Tucson, said that with these seniors at the helm, she knows that the team with 12 freshmen is in good hands. “What we try to tell the underclassmen, [Barry, Mutz, and Davis] show them everyday. Honestly, I think this team wouldn’t be the same without them,” Oyen said. “For me personally, it was amazing to have them here
because I did recruit them, and none of them had a smooth transition. They all had injuries, and they all dealt with ups and downs of not playing and earning their spot.” The trio of Wildcats have all redshirted and missed significant time due to injuries. Barry did not play in 2006, and appeared in just three games in each of the next two seasons before playing in nine games last season while still battling pain
Arizona’s non-conference schedule helped prepare this year’s team, including several freshman, to get re-acclimated to the rigors of travel once conference play heats up. Arizona (12-4, 1-2 Pacific 10 Conference) head coach Dave Rubio, now a 19-year veteran of Pac-10 play, knows how to prepare a team for the challenges it will face over the course of a season. “That was one of the things about the New Mexico State trip (last Sunday), which was really good for us,” Rubio said. “New Mexico State was very good, very physical, very much like a Pac-10 team from a physical standpoint. We had to go on the road, and we weren’t playing very sharp. But we still found a way to get the job done.” For a few key contributors for Arizona, early this season was the first time they have had to travel and be able to balance school and volleyball at the same time. “Since (the Shamrock Invitational) was our first tournament, I really didn’t know what to expect when we travelled,” said freshman middle blocker Maddie Lozano. “It was nice to get that feeling, but it’s always going to be tough when you’re on the road.” Libero is one of the toughest positions on the floor to adjust tofrom high school to college, and the first few weekends were a chance for Candace Nicholson — also a freshman — to make the necessary adjustments. “That first tournament really prepared me personally because I didn’t know what it was

Scoring in the Pac-10
This weekend, the scoreboards lit up around the Pacific 10 Conference. Every team scored at least 28 points, and the conference as a whole averaged 34.4 points per game. Oregon is leading the nation in scoring offense with an average of 56.6 points per game and total offense with 569.2 yards per game.
Arizona’s defense
This was supposed to be the problem area for head coach Mike Stoops and the Wildcats? Arizona is ranked second in total defense, having not given up a touchdown in three of its four games this season. An opponent has only crossed the goal line four times this season, and all four times have been passing touchdowns. Those four are the second fewest touchdowns in nation.
Oregon State Beavers
After a rocky start to the season against BCS darlings TCU and Boise State, the Beavers finally got their heads on straight against ASU, even without the help of James Rodgers. The wide receiver Rogers is expected to start against Arizona this weekend, and the Beavers have some defensive power of their own. Stephen Paea had two sacks last weekend at ASU.
USC’s chances in the Pac
Oregon has seized control of the conference in the last two seasons, leaving the usually dominant Trojans less on the totem poll in terms of Pac-10 dominance. A last second loss to Washington certainly didn’t help restore it. The Trojans have a difficult task in Stanford this week, and the Cardinal will be looking to get some revenge after being victims to a Duck comeback last week.
Bruins air attack
UCLA ranks last or second to last in theses categories: Turnovers, turnover margin, scoring offense, passing efficiency and passing offense. Someone needs to help out the Bruins passing attack and quickly. Quarterback Kevin Prince didn’t play against Washington State due to a sprained knee, but that hasn’t been his only ailment this season. Prince has been plagued by back and shoulder injuries throughout the year.
Arizona State Sun Devils
Well, it doesn’t look like it will be the Sun Devils’ turn this year. Three straight, although close, losses have ASU on the outside looking in this season.

FRATERNITY
Theta Chi has doubled in size, needs 45 members
continued from page 1 This year they participated in the formal rush but are also continuing to recruit throughout the semester. “It’s a lot different than joining a traditional fraternity,” said Layton Cox, the new member educator and sophomore economics major. “It’s a lot of work. It is definitely for a select few and so far we have found those few, but now we are trying to find more.” Cox was one of the original seven members who helped to establish Theta Chi last semester. He became part of the fraternity when it was considered an “interest group,” meaning there were fewer than 25 members. Theta Chi is currently considered a “colony” since they do not have enough members to be a brotherhood, which requires a minimum of 45 men. “Right now we are doing a lot of recruiting,” he said. “Once we have reached 45 members and get approved by the national chapter of Theta Chi, we will be considered a brotherhood. We have to send in a petition saying what community service we have done, what philanthropies we have done and how we are involved in making the University of Arizona a better place.” Theta Chi has doubled in size since the semester started and is expecting to have 50 members by the end of the semester. “We are mostly growing

through word of mouth right now,” said Philip Thornton, advisor of Theta Chi and Eller College of Management graduate student. “We have recruitment events every week. It’s a chance for us to get to know people, see if they are what we are looking for and if we are a good fit for them. It’s about joining a group of people where you feel comfortable, where you fit in and where you feel you have a good mix because you will be brothers for life.” The men of Theta Chi get together with potential new members by playing volleyball, going out to dinner and a variety of other events. They take pride in getting to know the potential new members so that they can continue to build the ideal fraternity they have envisioned. “Our goal for the future is to be the best fraternity on campus,” said Sam Garst, scholarship chair and electrical engineering junior. “It’s easy to say that, but what our objectives are for being the best and what that means to us is having the highest GPA on campus. We want to be recognized as being smart as well as by being cool, outgoing and fun to be with, but we also want to be recognized as the safest fraternity on campus. We don’t want to have any girls who come to our mixers or parties leaving thinking that this is a sketchy place. We want them to be comfortable around us.”

areas where they will be easier to monitor, and they should have reasonable limitations on their hour of operations. “To the extent that the commission altered the language to make it less restrictive, I would urge the staff recommendations which are more restrictive,” LaWall said. “We can loosen it up later, but it cannot be tightened up after the fact.” She said, for instance, the limitation on square footage in houses should be 250 square feet, rather than the recommended 500 square feet by the commission. She said that is about the size of a hotel room and plenty of space to grow marijuana plants. LaWall recommends 1,000 feet between a dispensary and a school zone to ensure the safety of children. She also urges the prohibition of offsite delivery by marijuana dispensers. According to LaWall, pharmacys are not permitted to deliver medications; people need to sign for them. “It cannot be dropped off at a house where a child or unauthorized person can have access to it,” LaWall said. The proposition requires cultivation of marijuana to be in a locked and secure facility such as a closet, a room or any building that can be locked, according to LaWall. It does not authorize outdoor cultivation for growth. “We should restrict the cultivation to inside a building. This will
protect neighborhood residents,” LaWall stated, “Different cities have been flooded with dispensaries. In Los Angeles by 2009, there were 545 marijuana dispensaries which outnumbered the number of Starbucks and Subway sandwich shops combined.” Without local zoning ordinances in place, Proposition 203 permits dispensaries and cultivation sites in residential neighborhoods, less than two blocks from any school and adjacent to a library, daycare center — anywhere children congregate, said LaWall. “Without zoning restrictions we can see that this is really a prescription for disaster.” There are also no restrictions on who can be employed by marijuana dispensers, she said, except for felons who have committed crimes within the past ten years. Another issue that concerns the staff, she said, is that law enforcement is forbidden from inspecting or monitoring any marijuana dispensaries. “The time to act is now,” she said. Jon Gettel, director of the local chapter for the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, is a medical marijuana patient. He spoke at the meeting, explaining that medical marijuana has helped him recover from an injury that happened 10 years ago in a near fatal car accident. “I had a tremendously difficult recovery learning how to walk

again,” he said. “Doctors prescribed serious narcotic pain killers that did not work.” He said marijuana is a safe and effective treatment. “By restricting it to zoning, we are restricting this to smaller commercial areas and we have to make sure we are out making it available to patients who need it,” Gettel said. He said that those who have a serious illness will not be able to drive to the dispensaries, and they will then suffer. Program Coordinator for the High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas, Tom Hayden, said he supports LaWall and shares the same concerns she addressed. Hayden said Arizona has the most drug trafficking organizations and that people have to be prepared for potential corruption to occur if the proposition passes. “There will be violence, and we can expect that,” Hayden said. Kathleen Robinson, assistant chief of police for the Tucson Police Department said, “Law enforcement has great concern about this ordinance and us being able to regulate the number of dispensaries in Tucson and Pima County.” She added that half a dozen dispensaries in Pima County may create problems, being so close to the border and drug activity. “We support Barbara LaWall and staff regulations,” Robinson stated. “We are concerned about the city’s safety.”

defenseman Mike Basist and forward Scotty Willson for the first game. The two were disqualified after a fight against ASU last week. Additionally, all of their games are in the morning and the three-hour time difference will all be factors. Golembiewski said there’s really no way to adjust their body clocks. “Being down two men in the first game doesn’t help,” Golembiewski said. “I’m also concerned about the fact that all the games are in the morning.” The team will arrive in Youngstown, Ohio, later today and take the ice for the first time in nearly a week. The Icecats weren’t able to practice this week because of the lack ice. Golembiewski said it would just be a “quick skate.” “Hopefully that hour on the ice will loosen up our legs a little bit,” he added. UA opens the tournament against 2-0

Early-season traveling preps ’Cats for Pac-10
going to be like,” said libero Candace Nicholson. “Knowing how tiring it is — having to watch scouting reports pregame … it just shows you how hard it is and how rest is really important.” Nicholson has adapted well. So far this season, she has racked up 133 digs, good for second on the team behind Tiffany Owens’ 157. In the Shamrock Invitational, hosted by Notre Dame, Arizona passed its first road test of the season with a 2-1 record. In the three-game tournament, the Wildcats’ only blemish was a 3-2 loss to Cal Poly. “Those early season tournaments, and those heartbreaking losses we’ve had, it’s all about preparing (the players) for what we’re going to face during the season,” Rubio continued. “We’re hoping that some of that experience will come back and help us play better.”
Travelling isn’t the only adjustment newcomers to Pac-10 volleyball have to make. Even though Arizona competed against some talented teams before conference play, nothing can simulate going against top-notch opponents night in and night out. “The level of competition and how any team can beat anyone (have stood out),” Nicholson continued. “There’s not one team who’s really above and beyond anyone else.” Nicholson’s head coach echoed some of the things that differentiate Pac-10 play from non-conference matches. “When you get into conference play, it just seems to be added stress,” Rubio said. “The teams tend to be better prepared, and you get an entire week to get ready for an opponent. The margin for winning and losing a match is super small. It’s miniscule.”
Golembiewski concerned about time difference

from injuries. It took Davis, a midfielder, two years before she could find the playing field after redshirting her freshman year and missing the 2007 season due to injury. Mutz, also a midfielder who acts as Arizona’s field general with a strong vocal presence, played in just six games in 2007 before being shut down. “We’ve all been through a lot, and have gone through different experiences from injuries to everything else,” Barry said. If injuries weren’t enough hardship, the super seniors endured turbulent times off the field as well. Dealing with the backlash of struggling to find success on the field—UA’s last winning season was in 2005, the year before Barry, Mutz, and Davis arrived— former head coach Dan Tobias resigned last year in the middle of the season, leaving Arizona soccer to navigate rocky waters ahead. Several former players left Tucson due to instability over the past five years—Davis said that over 20 former teammates had left the program in her time at Arizona—and the seniors acknowledged moments of doubt about their future as Wildcats. “It was hard because we had a lot of teammates and friends who quit, moved, or transferred,” Barry said. “Just to have

Mercyhurst College on tomorrow at 7:45 a.m. Although the Lakers are currently unranked, they have scored a combined 15 goals while only giving up two. Last season they finished 12-19. On Saturday morning at 6 a.m., the Icecats will take on No. 25 Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights have gotten off to a slow start at 1-2 and average four goals a game. UA beat them 8-4 in last year’s Showcase. Arizona’s final game of the tournament on Sunday morning might also be the toughest. The Cats will play No. 23 West Chester University at 5 a.m. The Golden Rams are 2-0, have scored 16 goals overall and given up eight. Golembiewski isn’t looking past any of the three teams his team will face. “I don’t look at rankings but Mercyhurst, Rutgers and West Chester are solid hockey teams,” he said. “They’re all going to be tough clubs.”

close friends leave is hard because you ask yourself ‘should I stay?,’ but in the end I think it was the right decision for me. I’ve enjoyed it.” In their final year as Wildcats, the seniors’ commitment to rebuilding the program is undeniable, as each is healthy and contributing on the field as starters in 2010. Davis and Mutz both scored goals in Arizona’s 2-1 win over San Francisco on Sunday, and Barry is finally healthy and leading Arizona’s improving back four. “It was definitely worth coming back for a fifth year,” Davis said. The seniors have taken it upon themselves to build a name for Arizona as one of the best places to play college soccer, and they want to see it happen this year. “It’s setting high standards, we don’t what this to just be a soccer team. We want this program to eventually have some type of reputation of making the tournament and being successful,” Barry said. The dedication and perseverance that Barry, Mutz, and Davis have shown Oyen over the past five years makes them “super” in every sense of the word. “They’ve been through some ups and downs in this program but they stuck it out and believe in this team just as much as the coaching staff does. I couldn’t say enough about them,” Oyen said.
