Count more sheep, college kids need sleep BY HANNAH DAHL @DailyWildcat
When was the last time you got a solid eight hours of sleep? A recent study cited by the University of Georgia states that on average, college students are getting close to six to 6.9 hours of sleep a night. For many students that
number sounds pretty familiar, for others getting six hours of sleep is a distant memory. With the pressure of a full or part-time job, course work and conflicting social schedules, it can be tempting to give up on getting a proper night’s rest altogether. Michael Grandner, an assistant professor in psychiatry and director of the UA Sleep
/DAILYWILDCAT
and Health Research Program, counsels against this. Grandner said getting enough sleep is critical for college students. “Sleep, nutrition and physical activity are the three pillars of health,” Grandner said. “They all support each other and when any one of those is not very strong, you
@DAILYWILDCAT
get problems with health and functioning.” While it might be easy to acknowledge that not getting enough sleep is unpleasant— as anyone who’s pulled an all-nighter knows—what’s less apparent are the longterm health effects.

UA online Constitutions Resource Center to offer Native nations governing advice BY LEAH MERRALL @leahmerrall
The Native Nations Institute, housed at the UA’s Udall Center for Studies in Public Policy, is launching a Constitutions Resource Center on Oct. 10. This free, online resource center will offer Native nations across the globe access to information about governance they can tailor to their own needs and a space they can share narratives on the different ways nations have reformed their governments. The NNI operates in an effort to help Native nations pursue and realize their own political, economic and community development objectives. Danielle Hiraldo, the institute’s tribal outreach specialist, said after years of research and tribal services, there seemed to exist a common need among nations to revise their constitutions. “What we find with Native nations, especially in the United States and then Canada, is that a lot of them are operating with a constitution that really wasn’t their own,” Hiraldo said. Hiraldo explained that a constitution can be oral, not just written and can include traditional assigned roles and ways of electing leaders. Some nations have no constitutions, others want to reform theirs to fit their individual needs and a few were writing entirely new constitutions that no longer had the influence of the outside government, Hiraldo said. A unique feature of the
Constitution Resource Center is that it’s all online and accessible 24 hours a day. Joan Timeche, executive director of the NNI, said that the online aspect of the center affords people from all over the world access and doesn’t require someone from the institute to be on site. People can also use the content in educational settings and stream the videos directly from the website. “It just allows a wide range of people access to this information and we’re hoping that our youths will become more interested in this and hopefully engage,” Timeche said. “We have a lot of people out in Indian country who don’t utilize the internet as much as the younger generation, so it should appeal to a wide range of folks as well.” The online center will provide general information about what a constitution looks like within a Native nation and will analyze popular elements of constitutions, such as preambles. The CRC will provide this through stories told by nations who are thinking about, or engaged, in reform or have completed restructuring of their government. It will also give information about what to do next after the changes have been made. The CRC was largely funded by the Morris K. Udall and the Stewart L. Udall Foundation. It will be a new component within NNI’s Indigenous Governance Database and while it is run through the NNI, it is separate from the department’s own website. The NNI currently connects

with nations all over the US, Canada, South America, New Zealand and Australia. “As indigenous peoples, we have diverse culture, we have diverse histories,” Hiraldo said. “But at the same time we are still dealing with a lot of common governance challenges and I think that having a resource that has all of the tools and

UA green groups to present at major conference Students from the Green Fund, Compost Cats and Students for Sustainability head to the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education conference BY AVA GARCIA @ava_garcia1
UA sustainability organizations are heading to Baltimore, Maryland for the annual Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education conference. The conference kicked off with a student summit on Oct. 9 and continues through Oct. 12 with programming aimed at bringing students together from around North America to talk about sustainability programs in higher education. Several different UA sustainability clubs are in attendance, such as Students for Sustainability, Compost Cats and the Green Fund, a group of students that decides where to allocate funding for different sustainability projects. Tewntynine UA students in total are in Baltimore for the conference. SFS alone sent 22 students, according to Stephanie Choi, SFS co-director and a literacy, learning and leadership senior. Choi said last year, the UA had the most students attending the conference. “That was pretty awesome,” Choi said. “A lot of times it’s just like academics and staff members and not a ton of undergraduate students, so we bring definitely a ton of undergrad, which is great.” Choi said that the organization tried to encourage more people to apply to attend the conference this year. The UA has been attending the conference for five years, according to Julia Rudnick, the coordinator of campus sustainability programs and the administrator for the Green Fund. Rudnick said the UA traditionally has been “very blessed with such student
activism” and that a large percentage of students attend the conference. The UA department of Soil, Water and Environmental Science provided some of the funding for SFS’s trip, according to Choi, who said students could also submit applications for funding from outside sources. Students can attend the conference for different reasons and the conference is open to everyone, Rudnick said. Once at the conference, students can attend different workshops and sessions. “It’s really busy at AASHE,” Rudnick said. “You could easily have 10 different tracks with 10 different sections going on every hour on the hour.” Choi said some UA students are also presenting at the conference. She said she’s presented at the conference in previous years, and this year is no exception. Her presentation this year is on an environmental arts committee she started last year looking at how the arts can be a medium and a channel for sustainability and activism. “I think it’s really a comfortable and welcoming environment and people are really just ... receptive,” Choi said. Rudnick said those who are presenting are gaining skills that they can bring back to the university. For some students, such as Troy Mason, a political science senior, it is their first time attending and presenting at the conference. Mason is the farm manager of the Compost Cats. “I’m really looking to seeing what other people are doing to bring sustainability to the forefront of higher education,” Mason said. “A lot of people are really excited

to hear about Compost Cats because we have a pretty unique model for sustainability in college, so I’m curious what other schools are doing.” Mason said they are looking to learn new things to bring back to the UA at the conference. Rudnick has similar hopes for students who attend the conference. “Hopefully they are going and they are meeting other students who are doing some of the same things that they’re doing on their campus,” Rudnick said. “Learning about what they’re doing so that they can come back here to the UA
and talk about it and implement some of the things here on campus.” Choi said the best part of attending the conference is being able to network with other schools, making connections for co-university projects and to share stories about what is going on at other schools. “It’s just like a really good opportunity for us,” Choi said. “We really appreciate going, and it means a lot because we work really hard to get our presentation submitted. It’s really nice to tell everyone about our school and what we do.”

For White, much of the planning that has gone into the making of the AUPP partnership was modeled after the Ocean University program where the students pay around $8,000 per year. “The idea is to take a business model [in China] that’s working and do it elsewhere,” White said.

POLICE BEAT BY AMANDA OIEN @amanda_oien
Sticky paws A University of Arizona Police officer reported to the UA Bookstore in reference to a shoplifter in custody on Sept. 27. According to bookstore Loss Prevention, the male UA student entered the bookstore with a bookstore plastic bag and took a baseball cap off the display case and put it into the bag, along with a pair of basketball shorts, a water bottle and a pair of sunglasses. When the UA student walked outside of the bookstore’s main entrance, he was stopped by bookstore Loss Prevention who then escorted the student to a conference room. According to police, the cost of the stolen items totaled to $133. When the UAPD officer asked the student about the stolen items, the student said he had intended to take the UA baseball cap without paying for it and decided to take the other items as well, using a bookstore plastic bag from a previous purchase. The UA student didn’t have any money on him or his CatCard to pay for the items, according to police. The UA student was cited with shoplifting and was released and escorted out of the bookstore. Mary Jane on Yak After a report from a resident assistant in the Árbol de la Vida residence hall referencing the smell of marijuana during a hallway check, a UAPD officer responded to the dorm to find the suspected room emitting the smell of marijuana. Once the UAPD officer approached the room and knocked on the door, a female student answered and agreed to speak with the officer, using her arm to gesture the officer into her dorm room. According to police, the smell of marijuana was also inside the room but the officer did not see any contraband in plain-view. When the officer asked about the marijuana odor, the student said she nor her roommate had a medical marijuana card and said that there was marijuana in her room but she didn’t smoke it inside. The student retrieved a small Ziploc baggie from a desk when the officer asked to see the marijuana. When the officer asked the student what she used the marijuana with, the student then retrieved a padded maroon pouch and replied, “Everything is in here.” The pouch contained a glass pipe and a silver-colored grinder, according to police. The student said she had checked Yik Yak and found a marijuana seller and met him at a house. The student said she didn’t remember the street name and couldn’t recall the sellers Yik Yak user name but said she had communicated with him on Snapchat. The UAPD officer strongly advised the student of the severe dangers associated with such a buy.

SLEEP HABITS FROM PAGE 1
Short-term unpleasantness of sleep depravation aside, here’s a list of five ways lack of sleep impacts you:
Sleep Impact
1
Emotional Health: Sleep depravation puts you at risk of depression and anxiety and leaves you emotionally drained. The daily stressors of life can cause you more distress than someone who isn’t sleep deprived.
2
Decision Making: William “Scott” Killgore, an Army research psychologist who studied the effects of sleep deprivation on soldiers for five years at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, found that sleep deprivation greatly impairs a person’s alertness, vigilance and moral decision making, as well as risk taking and cognitive performance.
3
Instability: Sleep impacts your ability to make rational decisions and can cause you to be emotionally unstable. You may find yourself feeling fine one minute, and angry or irritable the next.
4
Attention ‘lapses’: One of the scarier sides of sleep deprivation, attention lapses can occur at any time in a person who is sleep deprived, and often happens when it
News • Monday, October 10-Tuesday, October 11, 2016 is least expected. “You may feel perfectly fine, you’ve been up for 36 hours and you think you’re doing okay and then suddenly you just lapse out for a moment,” Killgore said, now a UA professor of psychiatry. “You have a blank spot that occurs where you just don’t process any information for 2-3 seconds.”
5
Relationships: Have you ever had a fight with your significant other in the middle of the night? That’s most likely because the ability to regulate your emotions is compromised when you don’t get enough sleep. “We found in my research that sleep deprivation seems to affect the system in the brain that involves the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, [the] area right between your eyes and how it connects with more primitive areas of the brain like the amygdala,” Killgore said. “Those connections are altered when you’re sleep deprived, so you’re not able to regulate your emotions effectively.”
Improving Sleep Quality Now for the good part: Listed below are five simple ways to improve the quality and quantity of sleep you get each night.
1
Keep a regular bedtime and morning routine: Try to go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Your circadian rhythm, or internal clock, will reset itself, balancing out your levels of alertness and drowsiness.
2
Don’t do anything in your bed that isn’t sleeping: That includes eating, homework, Netflix, etc. Train your brain to associate sleeping with your bed to maximize the benefits of sleep each night.
3
Get out and smell the roses: Killgore suggests exposing yourself to 30 minutes of bright light in the morning to help activate your levels of alertness. Conversely, try to avoid screen light (laptops, phone, tablets etc.) up to 30 minutes before bed, as it can impair the levels of melatonin in your body.
4
Avoid naps: Our bodies create ‘sleep pressure,’ which increases throughout the day until you go to bed. By taking a nap, you release some of that pressure and run the risk of being unable to fall asleep at night.
5
Avoid drinking too much before bedtime: This should be fairly self explanatory, as no one enjoys stumbling through the dark for a midnight trip to the bathroom. Grandner also counsels against using alcohol as a means of falling asleep. He said It may help you fall asleep, but it causes a shallow sleep that doesn’t provide your body with the rest it craves. If you’re interested in learning more about the effects sleep has on your body, make sure to check back here in December for the results of the NCAAfunded sleep study run by Grander, who is currently testing student athletes and the consequences of sleep deprivation.

To debate or not to debate, that is the question BY RAAD ZAGHLOUL @RaadZaghloul
A
s many commentators have noted, the opening of the second presidential debate resembled a rap battle more than it did any kind of heightened discourse. The two candidates refused to shake hands, instead choosing to sway awkwardly in the other’s general vicinity. The battle imagery has been ramped up to 11 in the moments leading up to this debate. Mr. Donald Trump, the bloodied warrior, had nothing to lose; former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the steely victor of the first round, was girding herself for a nasty, below-the-belt fight. The winner—a term that has been used liberally after Tuesday’s vice presidential debate—will not emerge with the other’s head, nor will polls show any kind of seismic shift. Of course, lawmakers and voters on both sides of the aisle have been chewing their fingernails raw with worry. Trump has finally blasted his way through the bottom of the barrel. After the caddy condemnations from a cabal of Republican party senators and other elected officials—including Trump’s own vice president candidate—the New York “billionaire” has nothing to lose. How many times will Vince Foster be mentioned? How many American voters can Trump insult face-toface? All these burning questions have caused a great amount of anxiety for the Clinton campaign. Unsurprisingly, the former First Lady stuck with her tried-and-true strategy of allowing Trump enough rope with which to hang himself.

The overwhelming presence of ego is arguably the real tragedy of Trump’s campaign. In a reaction not dissimilar to that which greeted the Brexit vote earlier this year, many— mostly liberal—pundits have excoriated voters for voting directly against their self-interest. This may be true, but it still cheapens the reason many Americans support Trump. As countless articles have pointed out, anger and disillusionment are the dual cornerstones of his campaign. The millions who voted for him are not all idiots or deplorables. But this debate is further proof that they are being bamboozled. Trump went out of his way to mention West Virginia, which was recently singled out in The New Yorker as being “the heart of Trump country.” However, Trump did not spent any meaningful time talking about

the poverty and destruction that has been brought about by the decline of the coal industry. Instead, it was lost in a series of exchanges that were ultimately either a) about how awful President Barack Obama and Secretary Clinton are or b) why Trump himself is being unfairly maligned. Many of the things the Republican nominee said were what you might find on a particularly noxious altright blog, with repeated, irrelevant attacks on Clinton associate Sidney Blumenthal. These offensives are transparent non sequiturs, and furthermore, taint any valid criticisms the candidate might have of his incredibly flawed opponent. Some demagogues have used the grievances of their electorate as swords with which they fight what they see as noble battles. Former Alabama governor George Wallace used his constituents’ fear of segregation to great effect in the 1968 campaign. Trump can’t even do that. He uses the social and economic troubles of American voters as a whetstone to sharpen his own sword, which hacks brightly and furiously at anything evil that approaches the only thing worth protecting: Trump himself. No more ink needs to be spilled about Trump’s poisonous rhetoric and action, or about the dangerous and childish ideas that he furthers. Bobby Kennedy once said that in the end, “America’s answer to the intolerant man is diversity.” Today, we are faced with our own intolerant man who counts on voters being part of a monolithic bloc to be manipulated at will. He is wrong, and he knows it. His flailing, amateurish debate performance is proof of just that. To quote former President Abraham Lincoln, a great man unnecessarily dragged into this boondoggle of a debate: “You cannot fool all of the people all of the time.” This is a quote American voters will hopefully remember next month.

Why the UA should celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day over Columbus Day A
BY GABRIELA BERNADETT
t the UA, the second Monday of October is a day just like any other, full of classes, meetings and the typical hustle and bustle of student life. However, For Native Americans, it’s a special holiday that acknowledges the strength, resilience and fortitude of this hemisphere’s first people. That holiday is called Indigenous Peoples’ Day, and it was created as a counter-narrative to Columbus Day. For Native American Wildcats, the day is full of events and activities to attend, and serves as a wonderful reminder that despite racism, genocide, imperialism and slavery that characterizes Columbus’ legacy in the Western hemisphere, indigenous people have persisted and have come through the other side stronger than ever. The holiday was first proposed in 1977 from the International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the Americas, and the city of Berkeley, California was the first city in the U.S. to celebrate the holiday in 1992. Since then, there has been a national movement to

change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples’ Day, with cities like Seattle, Minneapolis, Portland and most recently Denver celebrating the holiday.
On a local level, there have been Indigenous Peoples’ Day celebrations in Tucson for a couple years now, and there is a movement by the non-profit group Indigenous Alliance
without Borders to get every city in Arizona to celebrate the holiday, with the ultimate goal of having the entire state officially recognize it. On a school level, our peer institution Arizona State University passed an initiative in 2012 that removed Columbus Day from the academic calendar and put Indigenous Peoples’ Day in its place. Hopefully, this can encourage our very own school to do something similar, as it would be great to have institutional support from the UA for this very important holiday. As a member of the Tohono O’odham Nation and a UA alumna, I am proud of everything the Native UA community has done to make this holiday more widely recognized. On this day, I urge you to take some time to get to know your fellow Native American Wildcats. Talk to them, listen to them, learn about the various resources on campus that promote Native American culture, and go to the UA mall to participate in the events. Then maybe someday, it won’t just be Native American wildcats but all wildcats that celebrate this special day. —Gabriela Maya Bernadett is a member of the Tohono O’odham Nation and graduated from the UA in 2015.

Facebook’s lab rats, a.k.a users BY LOS ANGELES TIMES EDITORIAL TEAM
Editor’s note: The following editorial appeared in the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday, July 1.
F
acebook is an extraordinary tool, but its pitfalls have become increasingly apparent. Users’ personal information, interests and habits are all fair game for the company, which has little compunction about analyzing the data and selling them to advertisers. Now
Facebook has gone beyond capitalism and into creepy. For a week in 2012, it seems, the company manipulated users’ news feeds as part of a psychology experiment to see whether happier or sadder content led users to write happier or sadder posts. The result? Facebook appears to have altered people’s emotional states without their awareness. This was wrong on multiple levels. It was unethical for Facebook to conduct a psychological experiment without users’ informed consent. And it was especially wrong to do so in a way that played with the emotions of its users. That’s dangerous territory.
Facebook, which employs a secret algorithm to determine what users see on their news feeds, conducted its research by altering the feeds of some 700,000 users, increasing or decreasing the number of “positive” and “negative” messages they saw to study the “emotional contagion” of social networking. The company, together with two academic researchers, published the results this month in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. In the study, Facebook asserted that users had given informed consent, which is standard protocol in psychological research, when they agreed to the
company’s terms of service, which caution that users’ data can be mined for analysis and research. But that’s disingenuous. It’s hard to believe that users who took the time to read Facebook’s 13,000-word service agreements would have understood they were signing on to be lab rats. In response to the outrage, the Facebook researcher who designed the study apologized for “any anxiety it caused.” He added that the company will seek to improve its internal review practices for future research. Certainly Facebook needs to revisit its policies to ensure that its users are not unwilling participants in psychological research. If this
research is so valuable, the company should seek true informed consent. But Facebook also needs to address its cavalier attitude toward its users. The company has come under fire repeatedly for pushing the boundaries of privacy expectations only to be surprised by ferocious blowback. This latest controversy sends a troubling message to users that their personal information, their online activities and now even their feelings are all data points to be analyzed and manipulated according to the whims of a giant corporate machine.

What happens if you use Viagra but you don’t need it? Ah, the little blue pill. It seems as though you can’t watch TV without seeing a commercial for erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs. Viagra is a prescription drug which helps men with ED get or keep an erection. How do erections typically work? The arteries which lead into the penis open up, enabling blood to enter the penis more quickly. Simultaneously, the veins leaving the penis constrict – which causes the penis to become erect. So, how does Viagra help with ED? It increases blood flow into the penis by relaxing the smooth muscles which line the blood vessels. This makes and keeps the penis erect. Most college-aged men usually don’t need help with arousal. If there is not a blood flow problem to the penis, taking a pill to increase blood flow will most likely cause a painful erection lasting a few
hours. Using Viagra may cause side effects ranging from headaches to heart attacks. Younger men who do not need Viagra (but choose to take it anyway) could end up with a dependency and not be able to get and/or keep an erection without the drug. There are many reasons (besides ED) why it can be difficult to get an erection: disinterest in sex, relationship issues, stress, anxiety, diabetes, alcohol or drug use. New research supports the idea that erection difficulties can be caused by both physical and mental factors. If you’re having erection problems, make an appointment with a doctor at the UA Campus Health Service at (520) 621-9202. Bottom line: Just like any other prescription drug, if Viagra hasn’t been prescribed to you by your doctor, don’t take it.

The Loft Cinema’s shadow cast of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' gives its take on the absolute pleasure of performing the cult classic every third Saturday of the month
BY CHLOE RAISSEN @chloeraissen
The longest-running theatre in the country to perform “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” is right here in Tucson— The Loft Cinema. The art-house theatre has been entertaining the Tucson community for generations with this campy cult classic. For 38 years, The Loft has presented “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” every third Saturday of the month. The theater brings together people from all walks of life to celebrate the out-of-this-world experience Rocky Horror is. While playing the 1975 satirical film on The Loft’s screen, a shadow cast made up of a team of volunteers simultaneously acts out the happenings of Rocky Horror with a rotating door of characters. The cast participates in numerous substitutions in the cast list. This includes gender-role swapping and picking characters out of a hat right before the show starts. “If you don’t fit in, we will make you fit in” said Stephanie Martinson, a volunteer actor for the Heavy Petting shadow cast. The emphasis that many of the actors take away and hold dear are the elements of acceptance for yourself and for others. Steven Rivers, one of the show’s co-leaders and cast members, has performed with “Rocky Horror” casts all over the world. Rivers started working with productions all around the country in 1995 after he served in the the U.S. Air Force for 20 years. Rivers is now retired and permanently resides in
the Tucson area. “Everyone is welcome,” Rivers said. “[Rocky Horror] is the one place where I can go and feel completely accepted.” Sean May, the co-director of the Heavy Petting shadow cast, has performed Rocky Horror at The Loft for six years. May, who works two full-time jobs and goes to school outside of performing, urged Rocky Horror new-timers to not “be afraid” to experience the show to its fullest extent. Heather Hicks and Veronica Ridgely have performed at The Loft for two years and played numerous characters in the show. Ridgely said she performed several shows while pregnant and continued to do so up until two weeks before her due date. There are several elements which make each of The Loft’s Rocky Horror experiences unique to other live theatre performances—one being the collaboration between screen actors and live actors. “[Rocky Horror] is out of this world,” Jon “Brukachu” Brubaker said. “No two shows are alike.” Brubaker is an experienced volunteer cast member and has played several roles including female “groupie” character Colombia. Audience participation is another major component that holds “Rocky Horror” so near its cast members’ hearts. Jeremy Riddle and Bridget Summerville are the two newest members to join the cast. “Don’t be afraid to throw yourself into it,” Summerville said. “The atmosphere is where you can belong.” The show is a collaborating force between the actors

and audience, with the contribution from the audience being a performance in itself. The natural reactions from the viewers make each show unique and special. The Loft upholds more than just its own reputation with “Rocky Horror.” In March of 2014, the theater hosted the Southwest national “Rocky Horror” convention. The threeday event featured several showings with casts from around the country and the world. In addition to the performance on Oct. 22, The Loft will host its annual “Rocky Horror” Halloween show. The night will include costume contests with cash prizes and the renowned pre-show ritual welcoming new-timers to sacrifice their “virginity.” To purchase tickets for the show, visit The Loft’s website.

Venezuelan-American Laura Berkey finds home in Tucson BY LINDSEY OTTO @lindsotto
While many students transitioning to the culture of the UA face challenges, they often find a comfort under the shadow of the Santa Catalinas Mountains. This rang true for Laura Berkey, an education sophomore who moved to Tucson from Caracas, Venezuela. Berkey’s parents worked as missionaries in Caracas, so she spent her entire life immersed in Venezuelan culture. “It’s been different coming to Tucson,” Berkey said. “The cultural adjustment was strange for me because my parents are from the U.S., so I think I supposed that I understood American culture by having observed the way they exemplified it.” Coming to the U.S. for college, Berkey had to adjust not only to American culture, but also the culture surrounding college. Reflecting on her
freshman year culture shock, Berkey viewed her sophomore year as a time to deepen connections and increase her involvement. “For a lot of people, college is a time to expand through hobbies and interests and try things out just for the heck of it,” Berkey said. “So I’ve gotten to do that and step out of my comfort zone with my writing and my own art.” Berkey said that finding communities in which she could develop personal
relationships helped her transition into her new life at the UA. “My freshman year, it was a lot more feeling like I was observing what was happening, and now being able to be a part of that is really cool,” Berkey said. Berkey said she loves Tucson and its quirkiness because the longer she lives here, the more the Old Pueblo unfolds like a story. “I feel like when people initially move her they say, ‘Oh, it’s dirty,’ and ‘There’s not much to do,’ but the longer you stay, the more you

Eller entrepreneurship grads create new virtual reality 3-D camera app BY TORI HUDSON @DailyWildcat
In today’s world, tech-companies must keep up with the times, technology wise. They must innovate creative, unique product ideas that will easily lure their consumers. The start-up company Vidi VR, founded by a group of Eller College of Management grads, achieves this by simulating virtual reality with an interactive app and a 3-D camera. The CEO of Vidi VR, Brian Herrera, came up with the app’s concept for his senior project while studying at the McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship at Eller. The 3-D camera allows the Vidi VR team to record videos that look realistic and make the viewer feel as though they are in the scene of the video. “Our camera is two lenses, mounted on a headband so that they mimic your eyes exactly,” said Paul Injeti, a member of the Vidi VR team. “Whatever they record when you watch it in VR it looks 3-D, like real life.” The Vidi VR team won office space in the Arizona Center for Innovation through the Innovate UA Demo Day Competition, which allowed them time and space to work on its new projects. After Herrera and his team finished developing the camera, they created an app for Vidi VR, which will launch on Feb. 1, 2017. The app shares similarities with Instagram in the sense that users are able to post and watch 3-D VR videos shared by the Vidi VR team and users themselves. “Vidi VR is a virtual-reality socialmedia experience,” Herrera said. “Our wearable virtual reality camera

A GROUP OF ELLER grads started a company called Vidi VR with the aim to create a 3-D camera to capture ulta-realistic videos that connect to an interactive phone app. lets you share the world through your eyes in VR.” The app will allow people all over the world to share their experiences with the world. “We are all about experience sharing, so you put the headband on and whatever you’re doing while you record it, you can share that experience with other people,”
Injeti said. Vidi VR has also developed a VR viewer called Vidi Bamboo, which will retail for $15. Vidi Bamboo is made with authentic bamboo and has features similar to Google Cardboard. VR viewers allow people to slip their phone in the lenses and transform a VR video into a 3-D
experience. The Vidi Bamboo will be the first product up for purchase from Vidi VR. The Vidi VR team, which is currently working on collecting videos, will showcase its videos on the app once the app launches. The team has gone to festivals, art galleries and places with scenic beauty to capture videos.
The team even plans on collaborating with a downtown Tucson art gallery to create VR facility tours. The hardworking members of Vidi VR said they plan on creating new products and expanding their company’s brand in the future. You can keep up with Vidi VR on its website at vidivr.world.

Green Day gets reflective in ‘Revolution Radio’ BY ALEC KUHENLE @ThrowMeAnAllie
Time passes by quicker than we realize. In the blink of an eye, you’re in your freshman year of
college. Blink again, and you’re sitting at graduation. Before any of us know it, we are already looking back on how our lives have turned out. American rock band Green Day
has manifested this feeling in its new album, Revolution Radio. At this point, Green Day has been around the block (or boulevard) more than a few times. Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong
and company released their first album over 25 years ago, and in Revolution Radio, the band reflects on some of its past experiences and how they have caused the group to evolve.
Green Day doesn’t acknowledge what the future brings, which creates what feels like a love letter to the past.
GREENDAY REVIEW, 18
18 • The Daily Wildcat
GREENDAY REVIEW FROM PAGE 17
Armstrong acknowledges the inevitability of death in the album opener “Somewhere Now,” as he sings that “we all die in threes.” Green Day has three members. Very clever, Armstrong. Many of the songs on this album seem more mature than some of what Green Day has produced in the past, but the band also throws in some songs reminiscent of its youthful American Idiot days. “Bang Bang” and “Outlaws” sound like everything fans would expect from a classic Green Day track. Armstrong seems to sing about a girl from his past in “Youngblood” and when he says, “she’s my little Youngblood,” the song feels like a continuation of “She’s a Rebel,” from American Idiot.
Arts & Life • Monday, October 10-Tuesday, October 11, 2016 Green Day does tend to build on its previous work, making it seem as though its 26-year career could easily unfold as a singular narrative story. Throughout the album, the band takes a more mature approach to its catchy punk-rock sound, but ultimately feels like a classic Green Day album. Title track “Revolution Radio” provides much of the youthful angst and denial of mainstream culture that the band has always poured into its music, while “Troubled Times” feels insightful and reflective, looking at the changing nature of the world. The closing song on the album, “Ordinary World,” is slow, poetic and sentimental, closing the record on a somber, but satisfactory note. While probably not quite as mad as the band was 15 years ago, the trio shows it still has anger to unleash through its music—but what exactly it’s angry about seems unclear.
Still, Armstrong embodies several personas in various songs throughout the album, similar to earlier Green Day concept albums like American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown. Every song on Revolution Radio has something unique about it, but throughout the band’s 12 studio albums, its sound has begun to homogenize. But Revolution Radio still feels fresh and mature. Its thematic nature allows the members of Green Day to reflect on their discontent with time catching up to them, while still being a major step for future artistic endeavors. Time catches up with all of us eventually, and that’s why bands like Green Day, even through a filter of pessimism, show us how to take a step back and reflect.

SPORTS Mike Bibby’s illustrious career highlighted by 1997 title run
Monday — Tuesday Oct. 10 — Oct. 11 Page 19

COURTESY ARIZONA ATHLETICS
MIKE BIBBY WAS THE Pac-10 Conference Player of the Year and the No. 2 overall draft pick of the Vancouver Grizzlies of the NBA in 1998.
Editors note: Mike Bibby and the rest of the 1997 National Championship team will be in attendance at the RedBlue Game in McKale Center on Friday for the 20th anniversary celebration of Arizona basketball’s lone title. At a program long known for producing the top point guards in the country, it’s worth noting that a freshman point guard led the way when Arizona won its first and only national title. Mike Bibby was the point guard for the university dubbed “Point Guard U,” when it won the national title in 1997. Bibby chose Arizona over a number of other schools after having the most illustrious career in Arizona high school basketball history. He attended Shadow Mountain high school in Phoenix, where he was a three-time Arizona Player of the Year. Bibby still holds several state records including career points and points in a season. During his high school senior season, he averaged 34.3 points and eight assists to earn All-American honors, and was one of the best premier guard prospects in the country. Former Arizona head coach Lute Olson knew he had to have the prized prospect, and recruited Bibby throughout his high school career. “[Bibby] is destined for greatness,” Olson said during a book signing prior to the 1997 season. The illustrious young point guard quickly made a name for himself upon arriving in Tucson and started the season opener in the 1997 season, a game with future implications, against the North Carolina Tar Heels. Bibby made his presence felt right away, scoring 22 points to go along with five assists and three steals in Arizona’s 83-72 victory. Arizona didn’t win the regular season Pac-10 Conference title or the conference tournament, but entered the NCAA Tournament as a four-seed. After victories against South
Alabama and the College of Charleston to open tournament play, the freshman began to etch his legacy in Arizona basketball lore. Wildcat fans are familiar with the Miles Simon legacy during Arizona’s 1997 march to the Final Four. Simon was eventually named the Final Four’s Most Outstanding Player, but wasn’t to be outdone by the fabulous freshman. Bibby posted 21 points and five assists in Arizona’s Sweet Sixteen victory over No. 1-seed Kansas, out dueling All-American Jacque Vaughn. From there, nothing could get in the way of Bibby and the Arizona offense. The Wildcats’ offense fueled the team in its overtime victory against Providence in the Elite Eight. Bibby once again outshined his opposition by suppressing Providence’s God Shammgod, the NCAA leader in total assists that season. The point guard had another clutch performance in the Final Four, scoring 20 points and sending fellow point guard and the NCAA alltime leader in assists, Ed Cota, back to North Carolina. Bibby scored 19 points and four assists in the deciding game against Kentucky and was named to the All-Final-Four team, cementing his place as one of the all-time great freshman in NCAA history. He returned for his sophomore season and won the Pac-10 Conference Player of the Year award after averaging 17 points and six assists. He left for the NBA in 1998 and was selected second overall by the Vancouver Grizzlies. Bibby’s legacy at Arizona will always be the point guard who led “Point Guard U” to its first, and so far only, championship. The 1997 team provides plenty of nostalgia for Tucsonans with memorable performances from the likes of Simon and Michael Dickerson, but the most talented player on that team was always Bibby. He was the lynchpin for Arizona and will forever have his name honored in McKale Center.

One-and-done’s costly for student-athletes The one-year college requirement for basketball players to enter the NBA is unfair to the young athletes that have the ability to make millions now all sides of the equation are mutually benefitting, right?

AARON GORDON GOES UP for a dunk in the second half of Arizona’s 70-64 victory against SDSU at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California on Thursday, March 27, 2014 in the NCAA Tournament Elite Eight. Gordon played one year for the ‘Cats before the Orlando Magic drafted him to the NBA.
ARIZONA FORWARD STANLEY JOHNSON goes in for the slam during Arizona’s 80-53 win against Michigan on Saturday, Dec. 13, 2014 in McKale Center. Johnson followed fellow Wildcat Aaron Gordon as another oneand-done player in the Sean Miller era, drafted by the Detroit Pistons.
offered a different take on how the rule impacts players. “It’s just a rule,” wrote Johnson via e-mail correspondence with a member of the Detroit Pistons. “Just like we have laws and rules, it’s there to benefit our society. After being in the [NBA] for a year, I feel a percentage of the guys that enter the NBA after their first year of college aren’t ready to deal with not just basketball, but life in general.” Johnson has witnessed first-hand what could go wrong when young athletes are thrown in to a professional environment such as the NBA. The league uses similar reasoning for its ruling, but shouldn’t it be up to a player and his family to decide what risks they are willing to take? What’s wrong with an athlete focusing on turning professional at 18 years old if it’s a financially sound decision, like it was for Gordon? The Wildcats are lucky to bring back sophomores Allonzo Trier and Ray Smith this season. Players of their caliber returning for a second season is a rarity in today’s college game. Trier talked about his decision to return during Arizona’s media day on September 29. “Of course everybody’s dreams and aspirations are to play in the NBA, so I thought about it, but I already thought I was going to college,” Trier said. The sophomore guard felt he had areas to improve, and trusts coach Miller to be the man to guide him to NBA caliber.
“I just wanted to improve a lot of things after talking to my family and coach Miller,” Trier said. “I have a tremendous amount of trust in him and he has trust in me as a player. I wanted to mature and grow as a player and person and really allow myself to be ready for that challenge [the NBA] when it comes ahead.” There are differing viewpoints from players about the rule, but that’s exactly why a free market for prospects would work. You will have the Triers of the world, who want to mature and be fully prepared; and you’ll have the Gordons of the world, who are ready to rumble at age 18. To each is their own—except in the NBA. From a philosophical standpoint, the rule doesn’t add up. It boils down to an institution blocking a potential employee from working for a potential employer. If an institution tried to prohibit that 18-year-old whiz kid who created the next Snapchat from accepting an offer, you could bet there would be a legal battle ruling in favor of the 18 year old. After 10 years of the “one-anddone” rule, it’s time for change. NBA teams should find their own way to vet prospects and make better draft selections rather than barring prospects from entering the league. The current collective bargaining agreement will not be re-negotiated for 10 years, or if necessary in 2017.

Arizona football leaving a lot to be desired BY SAUL BOOKMAN @Saul_Bookman
T
he Wildcats are trying to find their footing on the slippery slope that has become the 2016-2017 season. Fans have seen this story before. Last season, the Wildcats— dismantled by injuries on the defensive side—limped to a 6-6 finish before playing as healthy as they had been all season at the New Mexico Bowl. Arizona beat New Mexico 4537 for the programs third bowl victory under heach coach Rich Rodriguez. Injuries have become just the latest ingredient on a list of why the football program has downgraded to a mid-tolow tier state of relative to the college football landscape. That didn’t appear to be the case in 2014 when seemingly everything

broke the way of the Wildcats, en route to a Fiesta Bowl appearance—the program’s first since 1994. Since that season, which now seems to be a pot of fool’s gold, the Wildcats have gone 9-10 and
3-9 in the Pac-12 Conference. Couple that with the brutal schedule coming up and it would be hard for even the most loyal of fans to see where the Wildcats can muster a conference victory, let alone a fifth consecutive
bowl appearance. So what is the difference between this season and last season? Talent. It is difficult to see the ability of potential come to fruition in many cases. The fates of coaches nationwide are in the hands of 16 and 17-year-olds who just learned how to drive. It is an unfair proposition but it is the nature of the beast, and those who deal with it best succeed. To that point, Arizona has not done well in recruiting prior to this season, and certainly did not do well on the heels of the Fiesta Bowl. The final recruiting rankings for the Wildcats’ 2015 class had them listed with the 39th overall class with Michigan right behind them at 40, according to ESPN. Arizona dropped to 47th overall the following season. Since that time, Michigan—a blue blood of college football— has turned around its program since hiring new head coach Jim Harbaugh. Arizona is not exactly a program that took advantage of the national spotlight, and
is now paying the price for mediocre talent evaluation and development. The defensive scheme is there. You can see the method to the madness, but the players needed to effectively carry the plan through is another story. On offense, the Wildcats are a shell of the back breaking pace makers they used to be. The reason why Rich Rod’s schemes worked in the past was due to the frenetic pace the Wildcats used to play, designed to allow mediocre talent rise to a higher level. The scheme has now matched the talent and it has been ugly to watch. This year’s recruiting class is better, but this isn’t basketball and freshmen don’t typically see the field a lot, especially true freshmen. Even a kid like quarterback Khalil Tate needed two experienced quarterbacks to get hurt to finally see the field. Time is running out for the Wildcats to turn this season around, and it could be running out for Rodriguez as well.
UA volleyball comes back to stun UCLA BY SYRENA TRACY @syrena_tracy
The Arizona volleyball team wrapped up its weekend with a tough five-set match victory, going 3-2 against No. 18 UCLA on Sunday afternoon at Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles. To go along with a win over No. 22 USC on Friday, the Wildcats earned their first sweep of the Los Angeles schools since volleyball began in the Pac-10 Conference in 1986, according to Arizona Athletics. Arizona had a slow start in the first set, but came back with a four-point run to tie the set at 5-5. The Wildcats and Bruins continued to exchange points, but UCLA broke away to take the lead 19-16 before going on to win the set 25-18. UCLA continued its momentum into the second set with strong offense, taking a quick 7-2 lead. Arizona attempted to fight back, but trailed the Bruins throughout the rest of the second set. Arizona’s serving wasn’t at its strongest during the early moments of the match, as the Wildcats committed six serving errors. UCLA ran the set, ending the match 25-17 with an ace made by libero and defensive specialist Taylor Formico. With an unsuccessful first two sets, the Wildcats, looking for a spark, bounced back in the third with help from Tyler Spriggs’ three straight kills. Arizona jumped out to a 9-7
lead in the third set. Kalei Mau contributed with two aces and nine kills to extend the Wildcats lead to 17-10. UA was dominant in the third and seized momentum by winning the set 25-16. With the fourth-set score tied at 6-6, Mau made another service ace setting a career high for aces with three. Arizona took the lead but UCLA caught the Wildcats and tied the set at 17. Arizona outside hitter Kendra Dahlke helped her team with kills and the Wildcats took a 23-20 lead. Mau ended the set at 25-21 with a kill assisted by Penina Snuka to tie the Bruins in the match at 2-2 and force a pivotal fifth set. The Wildcats took an early three-point lead in the decisive set, but UCLA battled back quick to keep the set tight at 10-10. The Wildcats took the set 15-12 with a late push to win the match and knock off the ranked Bruins 3-2. “We had to dig deep for this one,” Arizona head coach Dave Rubio told Arizona Athletics. “It’s been a while since I’ve been involved in a match like that. I am extremely proud of how we fought back against a really good UCLA team.” Mau led the team with 18 kills followed by Dahlke with 12. The Wildcats defeated a ranked team for the first time this season in style, knocking off two top-20 teams in Souther California after starting the season 0-5

against ranked opponents. “It means a lot to the players,” Rubio said to Arizona Athletics. “I knew this team had the chance to be competitive at the highest level and this weekend proved that.” The Wildcats improved to 11-6 on the
season with a 3-2 Pac-12 Conference record. Arizona will look to maintain its California win streak as it heads to the Bay Area this weekend to face Stanford on Friday and California on Sunday for a chance to get back into the Pac12 race.
