on behalf of the Clintons and millions of dollars in money from outside left-wing opposition groups.” As a nation that claims to value judicial independence and restraint, what part of the above statement paints the picture of a man willing to cast aside his political and ideological persuasions in pursuit of the truth? Democratic North Dakota Senator Heidi Heitkamp summed up the predicament that faced every senator on Saturday when she said, “in addition to the concerns about his past conduct, last Thursday’s hearing called into question Kavanaugh’s current temperament, honesty and impartiality.” And Heitkamp was not alone. More than 2,000 law professionals from colleges and universities acorss both the nation and political spectrum came to a similar conclusion in an op-ed published by the New York Times. The questions now facing Kavanaugh are plenty: considering his above statement, how can he be expected to rule fairly on the question of presidential power? How about on cases involving Planned Parenthood, the Clinton Foundation or any liberal-associated group? More fundamentally, how can an admitted partisan rule fairly on any case? The consequences of this appointment will be felt for years to come. Kavanaugh, who was chosen from a wish-list supplied to Trump by the conservative Federalist Society, was already thought to be a threat to established liberal precedents like Roe v. Wade. There is now a more immediate and widespread threat. With this appointment, the credibility of the court has been undermined. Although 5-4 rulings have become common with splits among ideological lines, until now there was never a question of those lines being drawn for retribution. “What goes around, comes around,” Kavanaugh warned Democrats during his opening statement. They and the rest of the country should be worried.

he Supreme Court of the United States is our county’s most powerful and long-lasting institution. Presidents come and go, but precedents can be forever. When the Senate voted 50-48 to confirm President Donald Trump’s nominee Brett Kavanaugh, it set a terrible precedent by inserting a political partisan with dubious character into an institution that, for all its faults, is supposed to be above the political fray. Let us start with Kavanaugh. Even before credible accusations of sexual assault surfaced against him there were a myriad of red flags, among them tens of thousands of dollars worth of debt accrued in six of his 12 years during his time as a U.S. Appeals Court judge. Then, in the last three weeks, events began to accelerate sideways. A letter alleging an attempted sexual assault was received by California Senator Dianne Feinstein, with the victim asking to remain anonymous. Soon however, the letter’s contents and author would be known. Christine Blasey Ford eventually came forward, culminating in dramatic testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee last week. “It is not my responsibility to determine whether Mr. Kavanaugh deserves to sit on the Supreme Court,” Blasey Ford said. “My responsibility is to tell you the truth.” Her powerful testimony was followed by an equally dramatic and deranged performance by Kavanaugh that saw the potential Supreme Court Justice dissemble himself, dodge requests for an FBI investigation and blame the eternal left-wing boogeyman for being out for blood. In one amazing and telling sequence, Kavanaugh heckled Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota for asking if he had ever been blackout drunk. “You’re asking about blackout. I don’t know. Have you?,” he said before asking her again and again, “have you?” Kavanaugh’s opening statement was equal parts angry and sad, blaming his misfortune on an “orchestrated political hit fueled with apparent pent-up anger about President Trump and the 2016 election, fear that has been unfairly stoked about my judicial record, revenge

OPINIONS | TOPIC OF THE WEEK
Prez alerts to be used for national emergencies only Daily Wildcat columnists weigh in on the pros and cons of the Presidential Alert System Chuck Valadez:
Alec Scott:
The test alert sounded at 2:18 p.m. It reminded me of the first time I had heard the alarm sound go off from my phone. It was just an AMBER Alert, but I was shaken. The thought of the government having the ability to access my phone whenever they want haunts me and makes me fearful of the power they have. What can they do with this power? My mind naturally went for the worst I could come up with, but like always, I wasn’t imaginative enough to think of the worst. “The ‘Presidential alerts’: they are capable of accessing the E911 chip in your phones — giving them full access to your location, microphone, camera and every function of your phone. This [is] not a rant, this is from me, still one of the leading cybersecurity experts. Wake up people!” tweeted John McAfee, software developer and founder of the McAfee security software company. Edward Snowden also felt compelled to bring this to the attention of the people, saying, “The same centralized infrastructure that lets them send something to everyone enables them to read anything from anyone.” Time passes and my anxiety continues, my anxiety of knowing I will never truly be alone again, the way I was when I was young, in the days before smartphones and other devices. Today, there are satellites in the sky taking pictures from above and a phone listening in to every conversation. The fact the American government will continuously violate the rights of people without being named as a top enemy to human rights is truly appalling. Where do we draw a line? Do enough people care? Or are they fine with all of this because they can send images that “disappear” with dog-ear filters?
I think all the people complaining about the idea of a Presidential Alert System fall into either one of two categories: those who are obsessively opposed to President Trump to the point that they associate all governmental activity to him, no matter how long the idea had been in the works for, and those who just see the idea of the government having a total registry of all phone numbers as being a little “big brother”-y. I disagree with both points, but I understand the latter. The alert system has been under work since at least a year before Trump took office, and anyone who thinks the device is a tool for White House propaganda might as well say that AMBER Alerts do the same thing, as Trump is banned by federal law, specifically the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System Modernization Act of 2015, from using it for any other purpose than immediate disasters. Those who fear this system is yet another encroachment of the government into our pockets should probably realize that a nationwide alert system about potential nuclear strikes is probably not the battle worth fighting, but I’m always happy someone is out there watching the government like Bear Grylls watches a snake, just in case anything happens and I’m too distracted to notice.
Mikayla Balmaceda:
GRAPHIC BY NICHOLAS TRUJILLO | THE DAILY WILDCAT
Toni Marcheva:
Overall, I think the Presidential Alert System is a great idea. Legally, it can only be used to tell people about national emergencies. We have been receiving alerts of this type over television since 1997. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration also sends out emergency weather alerts over the radio. Since only 12 percent of collegeaged people listen to the radio daily,
and traditional television viewing has dropped by 43.6 percent since 2012, text message might be the best way to reach us. It makes sense that the government would want a way to best communicate emergencies to the largest amount of people possible. I agree with Mikayla on her view that the main reason people are against this is that Donald Trump’s name on it. President Trump didn’t merely decide he wanted a mandated avenue to text us directly. An article published by the
New York Times in 2013 shows that Congress had already decided that while people can opt out of AMBER Alerts and emergency weather alerts, they cannot opt out of alerts issued by the president. Also, if Donald Trump did somehow walk around legal barriers and text us something outside of what the alerts should be used for, I imagine the outcry would be heard from both sides for the breach in our privacy.
On one hand, I find it a bit nerveracking that the government can access everyone’s phones. This can potentially be taken advantage of or create false fear in the people. When I think of alerts like these, I think of the “ballistic missile” emergency text in Hawaii, scarily real in the middle of our most contentious relations with North Korea. So it is a bit worrisome to think that we’ll potentially second-guess an alert like that. But on the other hand, I think the presidential alert is a useful tool if used responsibly. The presidential alert is a very effective way to get important, crucial news to everyone. And in the back of my mind I feel as if, because of Trump, the idea of presidential alerts scare people. A lot of people are scared that it’ll turn into his Twitter page. But then I think if it was President Barack Obama, would it still be an issue? And, let’s be real, is the president even really in charge of the alert?

My friend says that taking cocaine after alcohol will sober me up. That seems wrong. Can it be true? The easy response is, go with your instincts. If it were a math problem, I could see the logic in your friend’s premise. This is chemistry and physiology, not math. Cocaine can make one “feel” that the physical and mental deficits created by the alcohol are improved but that’s not what’s really happening. There is no science which supports the idea that cocaine (a stimulant) will negate the effects of alcohol (a depressant). Co-use leads to the formation of cocaethylene in the body which can slow down the “sobering” process, intensify the likelihood of physical and psychological disorders, endanger the heart rate, and increase a tendency towards violent thoughts, threats, and behaviors.
Keep in mind that street dealers are now cutting many of their drugs, including cocaine, with powerful synthetic opioids (painkiller) like Fentanyl. Anyone planning to use street drugs should keep Naloxone (an opioid inhibitor) on hand in case of unintended opioid overdose. The consequences of taking all three drugs (alcohol, cocaine, and fentanyl) concurrently are seen daily in emergency rooms and morgues across the country. Some people who use drugs have a tendency to normalize and trivialize the effects of their use. I encourage you to continue to seek answers from respected sources and not count on anecdotal advice from someone who may be trying to justify their habits. If it sounds sketch, it probably is.

ARTS & LIFE | UA DANCE
Student dancers leap into new season BY JAMIE DONNELLY @JamieRisa11
The University of Arizona School of Dance gave audiences a glimpse of the upcoming season, the Ventana Series, at its season preview Sunday, Oct. 7. UA dancers showcased snippets of the dances they are performing throughout the Ventana Series, giving the audience a taste of the talent these students have to offer. “Compared to other seasons, we have a lot more guest choreographers,” said Wen Na Robertson, a junior and dancer in UA’s dance program. “It’s way more diverse.” The season includes pieces choreographed by Martha Graham, George Balanchine, Nacho Duato and Jessica Lang, each of whom are renowned choreographers in the dance community. One of the dances featured this season, titled “Concerto Barocco,” was choreographed by Balanchine. This piece is a contemporary ballet number that is well respected in the dance world, according to Robertson. “It is one of the most legendary Balanchine pieces. We are so lucky to get to perform it at a college level,” said Delphine Chang, a junior UA dancer. “It is super technical.” Most of the performers said they are excited for the upcoming season, especially being able to perform the Balanchine piece. According to Zoe Draznik, a junior in the UA Dance program and one of the dancers in “Concerto Barocco,” this number will be stunning on stage. Another stand-out dance from the Ventana Series is “Panorama,” choreographed by Graham. Graham choreographed this number in 1935, and the piece wasn’t performed again until 1992. “Na Floresta,” another piece UA Dance has been working on that was choreographed by Duato, is a one-act ballet that is inspired by the mystery of the Amazonian Selva. This dance has only been performed by professional dance companies in Spain, France, Russia, Canada and the U.S. The UA Dance program is one of the few college-level dance programs able to perform this ballet, according to Robertson. Aside from the groundbreaking dances, the UA dancers said they are most excited to perform this season and to show Tucson their hard work and talent. “I’m excited to just perform. I’m excited to learn the choreography for ‘Na Floresta,’” Robertson said. “It’s the Nacho Duato piece, and he’s such a prestigious choreographer.” Chang also shares Robertson’s excitement to perform this season. “I’m looking forward to performing and for the diversity of the works,” Chang said. The Ventana Series aims to be unlike any other UA Dance season and, from the diverse works to the choreography, the dancers say they are ready to go out and break a leg. “There is such a variety of choreographic works going on this season. We have Graham, we have Balanchine, and inhouse choreography that is above and beyond the standards of any other university setting,” Draznik said. The next show UA Dance will perform is “Jazz in AZ,” known for its dynamic and exciting choreography in a “oneact, one-hour” show, according to the UA Dance website. The show will run from Oct. 16 through Oct. 18. “Not a lot of universities get to perform the guest works that we do. Melissa Lowe, a professor and the director of the student services and advising, works really hard to get them for us,” Chang said. “We are very lucky to have her.”

THE SEARCH FOR ORIGINS OF LIFE Astrobiologists at the University of Arizona are gaining national attention for their work trying to answer the question: Where does life come from, and does it exist beyond our planet? BY RANDALL ECK @reck999
Where does life come from? How did it evolve? Does it exist beyond our planet? These most basic questions of existence seem, to some degree, almost unanswerable, but they are exactly the questions that Betul Kacar, a professor of astronomy and of molecular and cellular biology, is tackling in her research laboratory at the University of Arizona. A recent transplant from Harvard University, Kacar joined UA’s Center for Astrobiology and Molecular and Cellular Biology Department in January 2018. With support from NASA’s Astrobiology Institute and Exobiology Program, the National Science Foundation and the John Templeton Foundation, Kacar’s research laboratory on campus is already gaining national attention. Kacar began her scientific career researching Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, but she said when she came across the field of astrobiology during graduate school, she knew she had found her true calling. At first Kacar said she was hesitant. Could her skills as a cellular biologist be translated into researching the origins of life? “Most of us do not think there is a place for our field in the study of biology in space. Those questions were left to the physicists and astronomers for the most part, but I think that cellular biologists will play a fundamental role in revealing ancient biology on our planet,” Kacar said. “Once life is detected beyond our planet, our broad training and skills will be invaluable.” According to Kacar, the UA is the perfect place for researchers who are, like herself, interested in astrobiology due to UA’s large community of astronomers and physicists and its forward-thinking molecular and cellular biology department. Working with a team of graduate and undergraduate students, Kacar’s UA lab is already well underway with research projects examining a series of key questions in astrobiology. “One big question in astrobiology is: If life exists elsewhere in the universe, should we expect it to be similar or

different to us?” Kacar said. To address this question, Kacar is engineering bacteria to express ancient genes that are millions of years old and the predecessors of the proteins our bodies use today. Kacar says she plans to observe how these genes change or evolve in her laboratory conditions. Through these experiments, Kacar hopes to gain insights into how evolution might repeat itself. If the ancient genes of Kacar’s bacteria evolve to resemble their modern structures, evolution may have limited possibilities and the life that develops on other planets is likely to be similar to our own. Kacar’s laboratory is also studying the impact of the evolution of cellular
machines, or proteins, on the carbon and nitrogen cycles on Earth and in its atmosphere. Cathryn Sephus, a molecular and cellular biology senior with a minor in astronomical studies, joined the Kacar’s research group this semester after being awarded the Arizona Space Grant in astrobiology. “Everyone in the lab has a particular background. I have experience with computer programming and bioinformatics. Our postdoctoral fellow Amanda Garcia has training as a geologist.Our newest lab member is focused on biochemistry,” Sephus said. Astrobiology requires an interdisciplinary approach to scientific questions, Sephus said. That is one reason she was drawn to the field
— it combined her love of molecular biology and astronomy in its research. Sephus thinks of astrobiology like a puzzle where you can start to ask really amazing questions about life elsewhere in the universe, and even about how it developed closer to home, after you have combined all the different pieces from the technology of the space race to our own chemistry. For Sephus, her research experiences have helped her contextualize and understand what she is learning in the classroom and has offered her a community of people who share her love of space and biology. “The Kacar lab is like a family,” Sephus said.

Astrobiology minor asks "are we alone?" BY AMBER SOLAND @dailywildcat
The University of Arizona offers a pioneering astrobiology minor and is one of only five universities in the U.S. to have an undergraduate astrobiology program at all, according to NASA. It is not an “obvious” minor to undertake, according to Laird Close, professor and advisory for the undergraduate astrobiology minor at the UA. “It’s common if you’re majoring in, say, physics, to have a minor in astronomy,” Close said. “But astrobiology as a minor doesn’t naturally pair with anything.” According to Close, minoring in astrobiology is also not advisable for students not majoring in the sciences though he does teach Astronomy 202 in the Spring, an introductory level, tier two elective course designed for non-science students who are interested in the subject. “[Astrobiology] is a bit esoteric,” Close said. Astrobiology is an interdisciplinary subject that requires in-depth expertise in a broad range of sciences, including chemistry, astronomy, physics, geosciences and biology. Unlike the UA, most universities do not have departments of hydrology or planetary sciences. Such specialty science programs are usually embedded in other basic science departments, according to Regents’ Professor of hydrology and atmospheric sciences, geosciences and planetary sciences at the University of Arizona, Victor Baker. Most universities do not have such grand,
innovative programs as the UA either, according to Close. The UA is actively partnered with NASA and other universities in many ongoing projects, including the construction of the Giant Magellan Telescope, or GMT, in the Atacama desert, a 368-square-meter telescope 10 times stronger than the Hubble telescope. It is scheduled to be completed by 2025 and is made possible by the UA’s Mirror Laboratory. “They need us,” Close said. “Harvard and MIT [who are also partnered in GMT] wouldn’t know how to build something like that, so they come to the UA, because we are the world’s best at building large telescope mirrors.” The multitude of departments and research opportunities make the UA a petri dish for science itself. As Baker said, it was only natural that the UA took on the challenge of promoting astrobiology at the undergraduate and graduate levels. As of now, astrobiology technology is still being developed, so astrobiologists are limited to far-off observations of biosignatures from exoplanets and information gathered from terrestrial life. “This is a really rich field that is about to take off. It’s going to be one of the most exciting fields in science,” Close said. “[Astrobiology is] a very fertile area for research, because we don’t understand very much about it. We don’t really understand the origins of life. We can’t even create life in a test tube; we don’t even understand simple life. Our ignorance on this topic is significant.” According to Close, while there is no

definitive or groundbreaking knowledge of Earth’s biogenesis, life on Earth, as currently understood developed independently from other exoplanets. “We only know of life here on Earth. We only have one data point and all terrestrial life is, in a way, identical,” Close said. “We only have one example in one speck of the universe.” This makes theorizing about extraterrestrial lifeforms difficult. If life developed on other planets, it is likely very different from what we see, according to Close. “We probably don’t have imaginations that
are good enough to imagine the multitude of different possibilities,” Close said. According to Regents’ professor of hydrology and atmospheric sciences, geosciences and planetary sciences at the University of Arizona Victor Baker, astrobiology is an exceedingly important field of study because of how little is known, since there is “potential for fantastic, earth-shattering, transformational discoveries to be made”. “‘Are we alone?’ These are questions people have asked themselves all through time, but now people today are going to walk this journey to discover life on other worlds,” Close said.

On 50th anniversary of massacre, students call for action BY SASHA HARTZELL @DailyWildcat
MEXICO CITY — Last week, the University of Arizona remembered the historic student uprising in Mexico City, honoring its 50 year anniversary. Professors both local and from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the largest university in Latin America, collaborated to commemorate the 1968 Mexican students who fought for both a more democratic educational system and also to keep the university virtually tuition-free. Though hundreds were killed in the Oct. 2 massacre of Tlatelolco, the students triumphed, and today tuition remains at a rate of 25 cents per student. The UA established a formal collaboration with UNAM in 2015, creating a UNAM Center for Mexican Studies in Tucson. Eugenia Allier, a professor at the Institute of Social research at UNAM, presented at the UA on Thursday, Sept. 27, commemorating the 1968 movement that "shifted history." Meanwhile, in Mexico City, students are remembering the movement of ‘68 differently. Just weeks before the 50th anniversary, students protesting peacefully at UNAM were attacked by a shock-gang, part of a network locally known as porros; now, once again, the students are mobilizing. On Monday, Sept. 3, in Mexico City, high school and university students organized a demonstration on the enormous urban campus of UNAM. They were demanding an explanation for the recent kidnap and murder of high school student Miranda Mendoza and for better school conditions in general, including more security, more teachers and more transparency, when approximately 40 porros arrived and began attacking the students with pipes, knives, molotov cocktails, boots and fists.

WAITING TO BEGIN A demonstration march, UNAM students took turns chanting in Mexico City on Tuesday, Oct. 2, at a demonstration in remembrance of the 1968 student movement, in which over a hundred participants were killed in the same area 50 years prior. The city's street-cleaning team looked on, waiting for the protesters to pass.
“Porros are, among other things, groups of aggressors, golpeadores, who are paid by UNAM’s authorities or even sometimes by the same Mexican government, PRI. It’s sort of cataloged as a paramilitary group,” said Felix Roberto López Roldán, a philosophy student at UNAM. Paramilitaries have been totally discredited in the country, however, according to William Beezley from the UA History Department. “No one in Mexico can rely on paramilitary again. But using porros is a way to get around it.” In general, porros are technically students. It is less obvious they work for outside interests, sparking less public outrage. In a recorded special message, UNAM Director Enrique Graue
said the attack was staged by people “who represent outside interests that evidently want to destabilize the university,” though he failed to specify those with outside interest. In the Sept. 3rd attack, cellphone footage captured UNAM security standing by, refusing to protect the protesters. One guard was recorded saying they had orders from above not to intervene." For two hours porros attacked, and UNAM’s security didn’t do anything — they were there and didn’t do anything,” said Camila Zuleta, a high school student from the protest. Fourteen students were injured, and two hospitalized. “They got stabbed, and one girl got hit in the head with a pipe. One of them even got a piece of his ear ripped off,” López
Roldán said. These gangs of porros have historically been utilized to repress students in Mexico. “Fifty to sixty years ago it was some students and young people working for the government specifically to try to control other students,” said Eugenia Allier, the UNAM professor who spoke at the UA last Thursday. “Now they try to control students, but it doesn’t work anymore. You cannot control half a million students, not in the same way as in '68." Allier says now porros are only able to provoke, which is exactly what they did this September. Their attack provoked tens of thousands of students to take the streets in a new student movement, almost exactly 50 years after the last mass mobilization.
UNAM students and supporting faculty went on strike after the attacks, closing most of the facilities on the main campus. On Sept. 5, thousands of students rallied, turning the nearby metro stations and main campus into a sea of chanting bodies. Again they mobilized on Sept. 13, marching miles through the streets of Mexico City to the Zócalo, the city center. UNAM faculty and employees, community members and participants from the 1968 Student Movement walked alongside current students in solidarity. “The education model in México is very authoritarian and conservative. The student movement makes this structure shake,” said Dr. Hugo Luis Sánchez Gudiño, a UNAM professor of Political and Social Sciences. Through assemblies, UNAM students from all faculties have collaborated to draft a petition of seven demands: punishment for both the puppets and puppeteers who were responsible for the Sept. 3 attacks, increased democratization of the university with more student, faculty and worker control and participation, increased funding for schools and students, increased security particularly for women, the eradication of porros, the removal of University Director Graue and of the university’s head of security and, lastly, the continuation of free tuition. “The problem is the director, who is the highest authority in UNAM, is chosen by the government council, formed by people who are from the government, these last years from the PRI, so that has something to do with everything that’s passed at the school,” said UNAM biology student Vanessa Peláez, marching in the demonstration on Sept. 13.

The students are demanding a system overhaul, making the director’s election a democratic process within the school itself. These issues have been simmering for a long time, but the thing that made everything explode, made everyone take to the streets, was the attack of the porros, said Alejandra Lopez Lejano, a UNAM philosophy graduate. “The movement is not just from UNAM but has extended to all the public education in the country. Even private universities are participating in topics that involve education and security.” Yet this budding, country-wide movement has been largely absent from US and international mainstream media. Dr. Hugo suggests the imminent historical change of political power in Mexico could be responsible. “Today, everyone wants to be well with the presidentelect, because they have kept silent on the subject,” said Hugo. “Having dealt with the issue would have generated discomfort with the AMLO [president-elect] team.” said Lopez Lejano. This December, PRI, the political party who held office for 77 of the past 89 years, will make way for the new leftist president-elect, Andrés Manuel López Obrador. The UA is closer to the events in Mexico than others. “It’s important for UA students and others to look at how students can be involved in politics and change, or attempt to change, their society,” said Beezley, who talked last Tuesday at the UA’s Special Program, Mexico 1968. He said students and teachers on both sides should adopt the attitude that “this is the chance to really learn from somebody else”.

Students covered the walls of Tlatelolco buildings with messages about the 1968 movement, the 43 Ayotzinapa students who disappeared in 2014 and the porro attack at UNAM in September

NEWS | HOMELESSNESS
Tucson, Pima County echo national decreases in homelessness, due to programs targeting the epidemic Portrayed by some media as running rampant, homelessness has been on the decline in the U.S. and Pima County with help from the National Alliance to End Homelessness and others BY NELS BERGERON Arizona Sonora News
Improved assistance, access to permanent housing and a robust economy brought counteless homeless in out of the dark over the last decade. However, over a half a million people still experience some level of homelessness across the nation. New initiatives, programs and organizations played a pivotal role in getting people off the street and back on their feet in Tucson and Pima County. The National Alliance to End Homelessness reported 36 states saw decreases in their homeless population since the Great Recession in 2008 — Arizona being one of them. According to Tucson Pima Collaboration to End Homelessness, Pima County is experiencing its lowest homeless population since 2012. As of January, TPCH reported 363 people sleeping outside or in uninhabitable places and 1,017 sleeping in shelters and transitional homes. On any given night in the United States, more than 190,000 homeless people are unsheltered and 360,000 are sheltered, according to NAEH. Poor mental health, economic hardship, domestic violence and drug addiction can cause homelessness, according to NAEH. TPCH reported that 55 percent of Tucson’s homeless population suffer from mental illness. A majority of homeless women are victims of domestic violence, as well. “A large portion of homelessness is caused by mental illness,” said Art Gage, former chairman of TPCH. “Twice a year we put on an event at a local church, and you’ll see in at least 45 percent of homeless individuals that there is cognitively something missing. It makes it hard for them to focus and improve their life.” TPCH’s goal is to discover the issues in the homeless community and then find money to support programs and organizations to aid those issues, said Gage. “Last year we received $8.5 million in grants from [the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development],”
Gage said. “We gather data and rank the different homeless organizations to see how efficient they are working and what services they offer, then we set them up with HUD.” Gage said HUD typically emphasizes certain issues that are afflicting the homeless community. Currently, he said, they have a specialized grant for domesticviolence and youth homelessness. “The most successful way to help the homeless [is] when there are low barriers to housing and immediate access to services in the community like mental health, detox and training to get a job,” Gage said. In Tucson, a handful of programs and organizations assist the area’s 1,380 homeless, ranging from the City of Tucson to non-profits and churches. A leading example is the CREATE program operated through Sister Jose Women’s Center at 1050 S. Park Ave. Of the 1,380 homeless people in Pima County, about 450 are women. The 26-week program empowers homeless women, helping them regain personal identity and teaching them job and social skills. “The women in my program are women who are for the most part in their 40s, 50s and early 60s,” said Penny Buckley, the CREATE program director. “This is a special group of women who have been chronically homeless and have come to the point in their lives where they realize that it’s do or die.” Buckley said 80 percent of the women are victims of domestic violence and nearly 75 percent suffer from mental illness. Surprisingly, she said the number of women dealing with drug abuse is low. “Success [in the program] can be best described by women moving forward in their lives by accomplishing goals that were once inconceivable for that woman,” Buckley said. Each session of the program starts with eight to ten women, but not everyone finishes. “The women who start are not necessarily going to finish the 26-week program,” Buckley said. “That’s perhaps

She believes some of the same coursework for women would overlap and prove beneficial. “Our ultimate goal is to make this a replicable model,” Buckley said.

Scholarship Universe to undergo a makeover BY QUINCY SINEK @quincymccllelan
Scholarship Universe, the University of Arizona’s online scholarship database, is planning to unveil a newly updated version of the website. Honors students at the university already have access to the updated site. CampusLogic, a company that helps schools manage their financial aid services, purchased the website to market it nationwide. “This is what we’re calling kind of a soft opening … to see how it works with a smaller population of students, and then we’ll be opening it to all of the students here very shortly,” said Kerry Cowen, departmental coordinator for Scholarship Universe. Honors students were selected to test the beta version of the site, because they have access to scholarships for the Fall 2019 semester, whereas the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid already awarded all of the other students with their scholarships and will not be awarding more until the 2019/2020 school year. Through this trial run, the office hopes to get feedback from the Honors students in order to make any modifications necessary before opening access to all students, according to Cowen. There has been no confirmed date for the
release of the updated site yet. The Scholarship Universe page on the UA Scholarship and Financial Aid site states that the site will be returning in early October. “We don’t have an exact date,” Cowen said. “We’re getting some feedback to see how this soft opening goes, and then we will be sending out communication to students after that.” Scholarship Universe is a “matching database” through the UA that is able to find students the scholarships they need. The website shows students both UA scholarships and scholarships outside of the university to maximize their options. “It matches [students] based on the questions that they answer in their profile to help them get more closely matched to scholarships they would actually be eligible for,” Cowen said. Cowen said another key part of Scholarship Universe is it provides legitimacy. The website does background searches on all of the outside scholarships that students are given access to to prevent scam scholarships from being shown. The university partnered with CampusLogic in 2016. It is a growth company through EdTech, which combines education and technology in hopes to create a more standardized and efficient education, according to its website.

Universe, it had to rework it into software that it already had. Scholarship Universe is no longer on the University’s server, which is why the remodel and update of the website is necessary, according to Cowen. Cowen said that most of the website will be the same as it was before and students will be able to use the site in the same way they always have. The site will have the same functions
with just a few modifications to update the experience for the user. However, the website now will show combined-total amounts that students can get from the different scholarships if they were to apply to them and were awarded them all. “It’s just going to be a more enhanced experience for students. I think they’ll be really happy,” Cowen said.

Mock Trial takes the stand again BY VINAMRA KUMAR @vk1059az
Mock Trial University of Arizona meets in the James E. Rogers College of Law on Saturday mornings and 56 members gather and discuss the fictional case that was created by the American Mock Trial Association. This year’s case is Midland Television Studios v. Danny Kosack. Mock Trial members participate in several roles, acting as everything from witnesses to lawyers. It aims to foster a learning community where students improve their knowledge of law and how to argue in court. The UA group has their own name for their members: “mockers,” according to this year’s Mock Trial president Raad Syed. Syed is a fifth-year senior studying Industrial Engineering with a minor in Mathematics. The team started its season earlier this year by hosting recruitment events, according to Syed. The first informational meeting was on Aug. 27 at the James E. Rogers College of Law. The team followed this up with a second meeting on Aug. 29. After the informational meetings the club hosted an Improv/Game Night on Sept. 4, which was followed by a social fundraiser at Gentle Ben’s, Syed said. It followed that with a movie night. The recruitment season concluded with a returner scrimmage and a “newbie” social on Sept. 9. “What we look for in new members is dedication … making sure they are willing to learn. Stubbornness is probably the worst thing you can have, [as well as] unwillingness to work with other people and get out of your comfort zone,” Syed said. Though his hobby and major don’t necessarily align, participating in Mock Trial helps Syed break from the norm, he said. “I did Speech and Debate in high school, and I’m an Engineering major, so I think [my] public speaking skills set me apart from other candidates,” Syed said. Mock Trial starts off its meetings with announcements, and then they move into a presentation on a law topic relating to the case. The presenters are law school students, MTUA alumni or professional lawyers. Then they break up into separate teams and discusses strategies. This year MTUA has four teams that will compete in tournaments. Each team has seven to eight members, with many
reserves. The teams are led by two team captains each, according to Syed. MTUA participates in several tournaments throughout the year. In late October it will be attending tournaments held in Ohio and Georgia. In November it will be hosting its fourth annual tournament – all in preparation for the finals. This year, UA Mock Trial will host its Gunslinger Tournament on Nov. 17 at the Pima County Consolidated Justice Court. Teams scheduled to attend include UCLA and UC Berkeley, as well as two teams from MTUA, Syed explained. “This club was formed in 2002, so that’s 16 years now. It was formed by a then-undergrad student and he moved on to become a coach of the program,” Syed said. Last year, UA Mock Trial had five teams that competed throughout the year. Two of these teams then moved on to compete in the Opening Round Championships. Though MTUA only made it to the ORCs for the first time last year, members plan to keep improving and striving for the National Championship Tournament, which will be held in early 2019. “My favorite experience in Mock Trial so far has definitely been competing at a competition at Northern Illinois University near Chicago, Ill. with my first team last fall,” said Heather Newberry, who is now in her second year of Mock Trial. “It was my first competition as a member of Mock Trial, and I learned so much from the competition.” Newberry is a junior at UA and is double majoring in political science and environmental studies with a double minor in philosophy and German. For her, mock trial is a place to “get feedback from real-life judges and lawyers.” “To this day, I have learned so much from Mock Trial that has translated invaluably into both my classes and my law internship that I never would have had without it,” Newberry said. Mock Trial is a community that provides a way to gain “invaluable courtroom experience,” according to Newberry. Mock Trial presents professional and practical scenarios that aim to help improve public speaking and build teamwork skills. MTUA is full of students of all majors, from engineering to philosophy, politics, economics and law.

the powder room It was neither snow nor cocaine nor anthrax that made up the white powder that covered a UA student dorm room, but OxiClean laundry detergent. A University of Arizona Police Department officer responded to a report of vandalism at Coronado Residence Hall at approximately 5:15 p.m. on Oct. 1. Upon arrival, the officer met with a UA student who told him that she left her room the previous night, Sept. 30, at around 6 p.m. and when she returned at 7 p.m. she returned to find her side of the room covered with an unknown white powder. She took the officer to her room to inspect the damage, though she had spent over two hours the previous night cleaning most of it. Powder still lingered on her shoes and some of her clothes.
Earlier, the student had had texted her roommate who confirmed that her boyfriend, a resident of Likins Residence Hall, was responsible for the powder. According to the student, there had been some drama between her roommate, her roommate’s boyfriend and herself and her roommate was in the process of moving out. The powder had not damaged any of the student’s property. She told the officer that she did not want to press charges, though she did wish for the boyfriend to not contact her in the future and for him to be banned from Coronado. At approximately 6 p.m. the officer made contact with the roommate via phone who told him that the day of the incident she had been in one of the Coronado study lounges, but allowed her boyfriend to retrieve something from her room. The officer then made contact with the boyfriend, who admitted that when he entered the unlocked room he had his laundry with him and spread his OxiClean laundry detergent around. He did not give the officer a real reason as to why he did this, though he did confirm that there had been drama between them recently. The boyfriend told the officer that he

internet imposter A set of mysterious messages sparked an ongoing feud between three UA students. A UAPD officer arrived at Likins Residence Hall at approximately 10:40 p.m. on Sept. 16 in response to reports of possible harassment. There he met with the two women who made the report. According to the first woman, a third woman had received texts and social media messages from someone claiming to be the first woman. The unknown person claimed to be hooking up with the third woman’s ex-boyfriend. The number belonged to someone from Newport Beach, California. The third woman allegedly believed that the first woman was truly the person messaging her and was so upset she hired a private investigator to prove it. The first and second women swore to the officer that neither of them had sent
any messages of that nature to the third woman, saying that they hardly knew her, though they had all gone to the same high school. The two women expressed concern for their personal safety, as they believed the third woman knew where they lived. The third woman had also allegedly previously revealed she had knowledge of the women’s personal lives. She knew of the second woman’s twin brother and people that the second woman regarded as creepy. Additionally, the third woman belonged to the same sorority as the first woman. The first woman told the officer that she had already informed her house mother of the situation. The two women said they had received no threats from the third woman. Other than knowledge of personal information, there were no other signs that the two women were in any danger. Due to stress from the situation, the second woman allegedly experienced extreme anxiety and trouble sleeping. The officer referred her to UA’s Counseling and Psychological Services. Attempts by the officer to contact the third woman yielded no results, however, he did forward an FYI to the Dean of Students Office regarding the incident.

ARTS & LIFE | UA ALUMNA
UA alumna takes the comedic stage The Daily Wildcat talked with University of Arizona alumna Aubree Sweeney, a 2011 graduate, about her career in comedy. Sweeney, based out of Los Angeles, travels far and wide for comedy tours and performances. She will be performing at several locations in Tucson Oct. 11-13 BY TAYLOR GLEASON @tgleezy
The Daily Wildcat: Why did you choose to go to the UA? Aubree Sweeney: I actually went to UA for, well, a few reasons. One, that it is just the most beautiful school ever. It was just really great, I just fell in love with the campus. I also twirled baton, so I actually ended up being on the baton line while I was there, so I was part of the Pride of Arizona. That was, like, a huge extra, so it was just kind of the perfect everything for what I wanted: I wanted to twirl baton and I wanted an English degree. DW: When did you first start doing comedy? AS: I started doing comedy, oh jeez, professionally, it’s been about six years. But before that, I was doing comedy as an amateur. I moved out to California initially, I got my master’s degree in screenwriting, and then from there I went through the Upright Citizens Brigade for improv training, and then that kind of ended up leading me into the world of stand up comedy, and it was just a really great fit. So I just stayed with it. DW: Who are some comedians that you enjoy and/or look up to? AS: Probably, one of the most inspirational comedians for me is, or was, Phyllis Diller. She was kind of like my comedy role model. I’m just really, really impressed with her, and she’s kind of similar to, I would say, what my style is most like: kind of zany. I’m a really huge fan of Maria Bamford and also Bobbie Oliver. Bobbie Oliver is a working comedian in Los Angeles, and she is just a wonderful human, and she’s doing a lot of stuff for women in comedy, which is really cool. DW: Do you find that there are a lot of women in comedy? AS: There are a lot more women in comedy than there used to be, for sure, but ... it’s not really like an even 50-50. There’s more and more women, I feel, doing it now than ever, but we’re still kind of a minority. DW: What did your parents think about you becoming a comedian? AS: They’ve always been very supportive. They were just as supportive of me deciding to get an English literature degree as comedy. Just 100 percent. Yeah, I lucked out. I hit the jackpot with parents, because they’ve been supportive all the way.
DW: How did you know that you were funny, that you should go into comedy? AS: You know, that’s a really, really great question, because I didn’t. I just had no idea. If it wouldn’t have been for an instructor that I had at Upright Citizens Brigade saying “Aubree, your monologues are really funny. You should try an open mic,” it wouldn’t have even crossed my mind. It’s funny now that I am a professional comedian. I’ll see people, especially when I’m performing in Omaha, that [knew] me from elementary school, and they’ll say “Oh yeah, this just makes sense, you were always so funny,” and I just really ... if it wasn’t for Joel Spence [it] probably ... wouldn’t have been something that crossed my mind. DW: How would you describe your sense of humor? AS: Oh, quirky ... It’s observational. I look at everyday life things, and those are the things that I talk about, but just kind of through like, you know, goofy glasses I guess, just a goofy view of the world. DW: What’s your favorite joke? AS: My favorite joke? Oh man, like, ever? Favorite joke? That is, like, the hardest interview question I’ve ever had. My grandpa, this is a terrible joke, he’s going to kill me for sharing this. He had this joke that was so stupid, and I loved it so much it’s making me really nostalgic again. Like I said, I’m in Nebraska, but, it was like, this guy went to a bar, and he brought his kid with him. But his kid was just a head or something, and then the kid was like, “I want pop rocks and diet pepsi!” And then the guy’s like, “No, you don’t want it,” and then the kid drank it and the guy was like, “You should have stopped while you were a head.” It’s really stupid, like, worst joke ever, but my grandpa used to tell it all the time, and I don’t know. It was funny when he said it. DW: Have you ever had a tough audience? AS: Yes. Absolutely. It’s different when you have audiences who maybe like you, but they’re quiet sometimes. You have the quiet audience, and that’s always hard to do. A lot of times you’re kind of blinded by the light when you’re on stage. So you’re not really positive, you can’t see their eyes, like if they’re smiling with their eyes or not. Also those can be kind of hard, but I always feel like the easiest way if you’re feeling like you have a tough crowd or you’re not feeling like you’re connecting with the audience that you can just talk to them. Just make it more about crowd work and try to get on the same page.

DW: Why did you decide to go on tour? AS: I love to travel ... I was permanently in Los Angeles for about six years and I love California. It’s amazing, but I just felt like I was missing out on travel. I decided to give up my apartment, and I bought an R.V. and just did it, pretty much, and it’s been great. I’ve been on the road doing this whole crazy, hippy R.V. thing for about almost two years, and it’s been great because I have the opportunity to come home for the summer, and then I get to enjoy winters in the warm weather. I’m leaving Nebraska just in time to get to Arizona without having to be cold or put on a coat, and so it’s fun. DW: Are you excited to come back to Tucson? AS: I am super excited. I actually haven’t been back since I graduated, so I’m super, super excited. I’m looking forward to reconnecting with friends who still live there, and it’s going to be great. One of my friends just had a baby, so I’m really, really looking forward to getting out there and catching up, and ... just going to all the places. Plus, it’s Halloween, so I’ll have to go to Old Tucson.

ARTS & LIFE | MULTIMEDIA SHOW
Flandrau’s dome lights up with ‘Samskara’ BY ARIDAY SUED @DailyWildcat
This weekend the University of Arizona is offering a unique opportunity for students to watch “Samskara,” a new, fulldome show at the Flandrau Science Center & Planetarium. The show was created by Andrew “Android” Jones, the world-renowned digital artist, and will only be shown this weekend. “Samskara” will play at Flandrau Planetarium on Thursday, Oct. 11 at 8 p.m., Friday, Oct. 12 at 9 p.m. and Saturday, Oct. 13 at both 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. Tickets for the show are $12 and are available online as well as in the box office. It includes visually stimulating, animated illustrations along with the music of Tipper, an EDM and trip-hop artist. Jones’ creations are described as electromineralism with a propensity of Pop-Shamanism, according to Shiloe Fontes, who is in charge of design and operations at the planetarium. Fontes said “Samskara” is “a lot to take in. The dome being so low makes it a lot more immersive.” She said she agrees that Jones created a show that presents a pretty intense world. “This captivating world was picked up because Android Jones has always been [so] interested in getting into the VR/3D area that soon enough a company saw his artwork and believed it would be an amazing thing to try to put into a show,” Fontes said. The show was put together by multiple artists, including
THE DAILY WILDCAT -
Craola, Chris Saunders and, of course, Android Jones. This show differs from many other displays shown at the UA planetarium, because it uses full-dome projection, according to Shipherd Reed, the associate director of Communications at the Planetarium. “Using the full dome truly creates a different level of imagery,” Reed said. He said he believes that “Samskara” is really an art-entertainment show that is entering a whole new realm of full dome shows. Reed also said he believes that this style is a new way artists are starting to express themselves and that he hopes the turnout will be large enough to bring the show back, with all its uniqueness and artsy illusiveness. Ross Wofford, a student who attended the media preview show, exclaimed that this show has a “wavy vibe.” He also expressed how immersive and in-depth the artwork in the show was and explained that “Samskara” is a show that has a plot and story line, but it can still be whatever the viewer wants to make it. Wofford’s favorite parts of the show were “the visual trips with Mother Earth and how the show symbolizes the world’s current situation of where we were before and where we are now.” Reed explained that “Samskara” can be a different experience for everyone. There are so many different aspects of the show that can be appreciated, so Jones has certainly left his mark.

JUNIOR CARLOS VILLARREAL RUNS during the Dave Murray Invitational on Sept. 14 at Randolph Golf Course in Tucson, Ariz. The redshirt junior is one of the cornerstones of Arizona’s cross country team.
Carlos Villarreal is on the run: Catch him if you can BY MAURY URCADEZ @Maurcadez
Proper preparation prevents poor performance. This alliteration proves to be true in the case of redshirt junior Carlos Villarreal. The University of Arizona’s cross country team hosted and won the 2018 Dave Murray Invitational at Randolph Municipal Golf Course in September. Villarreal got his first collegiate cross country win and recorded a personal record of 19:06.9 in the sixkilometer race. Unlike any other sport, runners have to train year round. Cross country is an endurance-based sport, so athletes are expected to stay in great shape and work on their cardio. “Over the summer I logged in over 500 miles. I ran quite a bit of miles,” Villarreal said.
Villarreal was prepared for the running part of the race but wasn’t as prepared for the heat. When the gun went off for the men’s race it was approximately 103 degrees outside. He mentioned that the heat played a big factor in the way the race was ran. “The heat altered our race strategy. It went from being a time trial to just winning the race. Times didn’t really matter,” the Rio Rico native said. During the race Villarreal went to the front but wasn’t looking to push the pace. He found himself towards the front and felt the other runners going off of his lead. “It wasn’t too fast, so I was fine with that,” Villarreal said. Eventually some of the racers started dropping, and one of his teammates, junior Seamus White, then ran next to him for a while. Villarreal said that around 3k mark, the race started opening up a little. With 1k left to
go, Villarreal continued to run as controlled as he could until he crossed the finish line. “I ran a lot faster than I did last year, which is surprising given it was so hot outside. Overall the team ran well,” he said. The men’s team earned a team title, scoring 20 points with Villarreal leading the way. Junior Hunter Davila finished second with a time of 19:19.8. Senior Travis Thorne finished fourth, while White followed in fifth place. Freshmen Connor McCabe and Shem Kemboi came in 8th and 12th. The Wildcats have been successful when participating in the Dave Murray Invitationals. In 2017, the men’s team also earned the team title with 21 points. That year Davila got first place clocking in at 19:24.7 and Villarreal got second place with 19:29.6. Villarreal said that the sport that he played in high school was basketball. He recalls that
he was always the “quickest guy on the court”. His dad was his coach, and Villarreal asked him if he should try out for the track and field team at school to work on his cardio. Villarreal's dad said yes but told him that if he joined the team, he wasn’t going to quit the basketball team, so he joined. The track coaches quickly realized that he had a talent for distance running. He then went out for the cross country team as well, and in his first season he placed second at state. “It was pretty evident that I was a lot better at running than I was at basketball,” the junior said. Now Villarreal is competing well at the Division I college level. He couldn’t have asked for more in his first race of the season, thanks to the preparation and training he put into it. “It was overall just a good day,” he said.

ARIZONA’S ELIZABETH SHELTON HITS the ball between the net and the Utah defense during the UA-Utah game on Oct. 13, 2017. Shelton is a sophomore who specilizes in blocks.
Shelton finds her way BY EILEEN KERRIGAN @WildcatSports
It’s game day in McKale Center, and the crowd is energized, cheering on the Wildcats volleyball team. Elizabeth Shelton sends another kill across the net and soaks in the hype as her teammates gather around her to give high fives. Shelton has come a long way since her days as a redshirt freshman. Last season she appeared in 28 matches and started in 20. She had 187 kills total for the season and 61 blocks, ranking her second on the team in blocks, according to Arizona Athletics. The now-sophomore chose to play volleyball for Arizona because of the tightknit community and family atmosphere and said she felt this especially when those around her were always checking in on each other. As an outside hitter this season, Shelton is driven to improve in all areas of her skills but is focused specifically on blocking. “I am focusing on one thing at a time, and right now it’s blocking, which is fine now, but I am not trying to focus on too much at once,” Shelton said. Head coach Dave Rubio plans practices tailored to Shelton. “A lot of my practices are geared for Liz and to try to make her a better volleyball player, a more complete player,” Rubio said. According to Arizona volleyball statistics, Shelton has currently racked up a total of 34 blocks this season, the second highest amount behind Devyn Cross, who has 49. Rubio is working with Shelton to help improve her volleyball techniques and said she has been improving her blocks. “She is a physically gifted young lady; she
can really jump well and be explosive, and be very physical,” Rubio said. When it comes to coaching Shelton, Rubio said her outlook on volleyball is different from other players, which prompts him to try different coaching techniques. “She looks at the world differently and she looks at volleyball differently … the buttons that I need to push for her might be a little more different [from other players’], so I am always trying to figure out which buttons I need to push to make a difference for her,” Rubio said. Shelton noted the person she looks up to most to on the team is Kendra Dahlke, a senior and one of the team’s leaders. Dahlke, an outside hitter, and Shelton work well on the court together. Dahlke said Shelton works hard and has great communication skills. Dahlke also said Shelton is encouraging and always has something positive to contribute to the team. “She is awesome to play with. She’s a lot of fun; her celebrations on the court when we get a point in the game is the best thing,” Dahlke said. Dahlke agreed with her coach that Shelton has a unique perspective on the world and said that it’s beneficial for the team. “She really takes everything super literally, which is not a bad thing at all. Everything for her has to be exact; some people are like ‘oh that’s kind of right,’ but she has to have it exactly right all the time, which is awesome as a volleyball player,” Dahlke said. After college, Shelton said she will play volleyball if the opportunity arises, but if not, she would like to focus on her career in science. Shelton is currently a neuroscience major.

Miller and Arizona turning over new leaf BY EDDIE CELAYA @reporterEddie
After an offseason overshadowed by an ongoing FBI investigation and recruiting intrigue, Arizona’s 2018 men’s basketball team and head coach Sean Miller were introduced to the local and national media. Last season ended in disappointing fashion with an opening-round NCAA Tournament loss to the University of Buffalo 89-68, and Miller acknowledged the somewhat-diminished expectations for this year’s squad, reflected by UA’s absence from both major preseason Top25 polls. “It’s up to us to be better than people on the outside predict us to be,” Miller said. “I think we have a unique combination of players, because not everyone that’s joined us is a freshman.” Still, the off-season’s biggest signing was undoubtedly Brandon Williams, the freshman point guard out of Los Angeles. Miller, who said Williams would have been a McDonald’s All-American barring surgery he had on his knee his junior season, would feature prominently in the squad’s lineup. “We were always going to play him in more than one position,” Miller said. “He can play the one, he can play the two and he can be a part of three guards.” With last season’s entire starting lineup moving on to professional basketball of

some level, Miller spoke to the versatility and “deceptive experience” of returning players and recent transfers. As an example, Miller announced that redshirt junior transfer Chase Jeter and grad-transfer Justin Coleman would be the team’s captains, something he said was voted on by the team and staff.
Miller was particularly effusive about Jeter’s potential. “Sometimes Chase Jeter is the forgotten man for us, because he is not a new player. He was here a year ago, but he didn’t play,” Miller said of the 6-foot-10 center. “Remember, Chase was a high school
All-American. He went to Duke.” Another new face Miller praised for his work ethic and maturity was Ryan Luther, a grad-transfer from the University of Pittsburgh. “When you’re around someone like Ryan, you realize he isn’t 18 years old,” Miller said. “He’s received criticism, he has been coached and he’s experienced the highs and lows of college sports, and that will be helpful.” Luther and Jeter will help make up a reconstructed front line that looks to replace the production of NBA overall No. 1 pick DeAndre Ayton and UA’s alltime winning player, Dusan Ristic. During individual player interviews, Jeter said he would be up to the challenge. After a season of practicing against two of the best big men in UA history, Jeter seemed confident in his abilities. “My table is set as far as playing time and opportunity,” Jeter said, before noting he “wouldn’t be following in anybody’s footsteps,” and that, like Ayton, he was a great player as well. Even with lower national expectations, Miller said the approach inside the program would not change. Brandon Randolph was even more optimistic in his season prediction. “My personal goals are to make it to the Final Four and show everyone this team is still great from last year to this year,” he said.
DEFENSE SAVES THE DAY VS CAL BY ALEC WHITE @AlecWhite_UA
Sometimes, the best offense is a good defense. Five tackles for a loss, four takeaways, two sacks and, most importantly, two touchdowns. Quite the performance for the Wildcat defense on Saturday night as they provided the spark Arizona needed to come away with a 24-17 victory over the Golden Bears. “That was really a gutty performance,” Sumlin said of his defense. “That’s two weeks in a row in the second half where the guys have played really, really well.” Last week’s second-half comeback
against USC fell short, but this time around the Wildcats were able to overcome a four-point deficit after 20 minutes of play and get their third win of the season. Another second half filled with twists and turns was highlighted by an interception-turned-fumble-recovery for a touchdown in the third quarter and a pick-six in the waning moments of the fourth quarter. “Absolutely incredible. They stepped up when it mattered most and it was fun to watch,” wide receiver Tony Ellison said. While Ellison’s first quarter touchdown reception stood as the

offense’s only touchdown on the night, the defense picked up the slack and the charge was led by – to no one’s surprise – linebacker Colin Schooler. With the ‘Cats down 14-10, Schooler intercepted Cal quarterback Brand McIlwain – one of the QB’s three interceptions of the game – at UA’s own 17-yard line late in the third quarter and started running back the other way with the ball. Now this is where things got wacky. Cal receiver Jeremiah Hawkins caught Schooler from behind and popped the ball in the air, but it landed right in front of UA defensive back Azizi Hearns, who scooped it up and ran it in 34 yards to the house for a touchdown. It was a play that you couldn’t pull off in a video game, even if you tried 100 times. “That was all planned,” Schooler initially joked. “That went from a good play to a bad play to a great play. That was a huge momentum swing and I gotta have trust in my teammates to pick up the slack sometimes.” From head coach Kevin Sumlin’s point of view, he probably held his breath as he watched it unfold. “When I see their running back closing in on Colin from behind, I’m like, ‘No!’,” Sumlin said. “And Azizi, those are hustle plays where a guy is
just like go, go … He’s just playing hard.” The knockout punch of the game came from safety Scottie Young Jr. The Arizona sophomore scored with just over three minutes remaining in the game and effectively ended Cal’s comeback chances. “I just go out there every day and work for my team,” Young said. Young missed all of fall camp and the season opener vs. BYU due to suspension but hasn’t let that affect his on-field performance and mentality. “I put the past behind me. What can I do to help the team win?” Young said. With two defensive touchdowns, Arizona was able to reach the midseason marker with an even .500 record (3-3), including two Pac-12 wins. Considering Arizona’s offensive struggles, outside of the Southern Utah and Oregon State games, the defense’s continued growth will be a factor in how the second half of the year unfolds. “The thing that gives a chance in all of these games is our effort. As long as we continue to have that effort, we’re gonna have a chance to win more games,” Sumlin said. Arizona will have a short week to prepare for a road trip to Salt Lake City, where it will take on the Utah Utes on Friday, Oct. 12.
