T
he last week saw three prominent hate crimes or acts of terror: the killing of two black individuals at a Kroger store by a man who attempted to enter a predominantly black Kentucky church, the killing of 11 individuals at a synagogue in Pittsburgh by an anti-Semite and the attempted bombing of 12 different targets, allegedly committed by an avid Trump supporter. These tragedies affect both select communities and all of us at the same time. Compounding them all together in the space of a week makes the overall effect more alarming. A time of such gravity demands a response of great magnitude. That may be asking too much of the current occupant of the Oval Office. In each case this week, President Donald Trump has either delivered conflicting messages or, most alarmingly, resorted to outright lies in response to these tragedies. On Friday, after authorities arrested Cesar Sayoc for allegedly perpetrating a failed nation-wide bombing campaign that targeted political and media critics of President Trump, footage of Sayoc’s van began to go viral. Plastered over the windows of the vehicle were various high-quality stickers depicting President Trump glowingly and showing many of his critics in crosshairs. While Trump condemned the failed attacks on the media upon Sayoc’s initial arrest, his tone toward the media as authorities pursued the bomber throughout the week was not measured, but instead maniacal. In his patented, have-my-cake-and-eat-ittoo way, Trump doubled down on both civility AND projecting blame. “We must unify as a nation in peace, love and harmony,” he said in North Carolina, before proceeding to blame the media and Democrats for the atmosphere of “incivility” permeating the country. “[We do not] blame the Democrat Party every time radical leftists seized and destroy public property and unleash violence and mayhem,” he said after pivoting from talking about a real bombing campaign tied to one of his ardent supporters. “Yet the media has tried to attack the incredible Americans who support our movement to give power back to the people,” he continued, failing to note the “incredible Americans” who coincidentally happened to be the target of both the president’s rants and Sayoc’s wrath. As of press time, Trump had yet to comment on the likely racially motivated killings in Kentucky. Considering Trump’s initial response to the slaughter of 11 people attending a Jewish naming ceremony on

Saturday, perhaps silence is his best response. “Results (the results!) would have been better,” the president said. “If there was an armed guard inside the temple, they would have been able to stop him.” The premise is of course, a joke. Three well-armed police and SWAT officers were shot in the melee. The most egregious part is Trump’s willingness to blame the victims. “If only everyone had been armed … ,” goes the old NRA-talking point, dressed up in Trumpspeak. Then, at another rally Saturday, this time in Illinois, Trump went full “big lie.” Attempting to justify having the rally in the face of a horrific national tragedy just hours earlier, Trump told the story of how, after planes brought down the Twin Towers Sept. 11, 2001, the New York Stock Exchange was open for business the next day. “I remembered Dick Russell, a friend of mine, great guy, he headed up the New York Stock Exchange on Sept. 11, and the New York Stock Exchange was open the following day,” Trump said to his captivated audience. The only problem with the inspirational story is that it’s not true. The NYSE closed until Sept. 17, 2001, its longest closure since 1933. President Trump’s willingness to freestyle and make things up is, in and of itself, alarming. However, his purpose for telling this particular lie is telling and even more concerning. Trump used 9/11 to justify firing up his political base in the face of mass casualties, just to make sure the GOP doesn’t lose its majorities in the House and Senate. He did the same thing this week to stymie any negative blowback from the MAGAbomber saga by continuing to harangue people who were subject to possibly being blown to smithereens, all in the name of political (read: personal) gain. If Trump will lie to justify putting on one of his ego-stroking rallies after one of the worst anti-Semitic attacks in the country’s history, what else will he lie about? What can’t be justified? Lies and misdirection have been the currency of this White House since Sean Spicer went blind and said Trump had the largest inauguration crowd ever. There has been little Democrats could do to make the administration pay politically. Those who disagree with Trump and his agenda also have had little recourse. Now, they can truly have their voices heard. How? On Tuesday, Nov. 6, VOTE.

Film student explores immigrant’s first Thanksgiving BY JAMIE DONNELLY @JamieRisa11
Stephanie Silva, a University of Arizona senior film and television student, is bringing diversity into the film industry with her thesis short film, “The First Thanksgiving.” Silva, the film’s director, said that “The First Thanksgiving” is about a Latina girl’s experience celebrating Thanksgiving in the United States. “It’s about a teenage girl who just immigrated from Mexico to the United States, and she is learning about identity and cultivation of this new home with Thanksgiving dinner,” Silva said. According to Silva, she was inspired to make this movie based off her mother’s first Thanksgiving in the U.S. “When my mom first immigrated to the United States, she would travel back and forth from Mexico to the states for school,” Silva said. With a stroke of luck, Silva’s mom won a turkey, which inspired a Thanksgiving celebration with her four younger brothers. “She won a turkey and had her first Thanksgiving,” Silva said. From writing different versions of the script to collaborating with friends and family, Silva has been preparing for this movie since May. “I’ve been working on the twelfth draft of the script and I’ve done research using different movies, my mom’s story and my own vision for the film,” Silva said. Luckily, Silva has a lot of helping hands assisting her throughout the filming process. Jalon Jackson, the assistant director, is able to lift some of the work load from Silva’s shoulders. “I help make the schedule, I plan each day and I am main point of contact,” Jackson said. Candice Michels, the producer, also plays a huge role in helping Silva behind the scenes. Michels said that the producer acts like the jack of all trades and does anything and everything. “My main focus is on casting,” Michels said. “The casting process was a challenge for us, because our director’s family are immigrants from Mexico and we are trying to honor that by casting an all-Latino cast.” Silva starts filming “The First Thanksgiving” on the first week of November. Jackson said that they will film on Friday, Saturday and Sunday for the 10-minute movie. “We film for 7 to 12 hours, so it’s a great way to get to know everyone on set,” Jackson said. Most importantly, “The First Thanksgiving” brings diversity into the film industry. The film features an all-Latino cast and is able to convey a powerful message, according to both Jackson and Silva. “I think that it is so important to get stories like Stephanie’s family’s out there, because diversity is not something that is seen a lot in Hollywood,” Michels said. “Even doing little things like getting these films in short film circuits and festivals is important. Any type of diversity out there is good.” Jackson also agrees that the film’s all-Latino cast helps it stand out from the rest. “The film is very diverse and different,” Jackson said. “Representation in film is very important to me.” As for Silva, she said she is most excited to get on set and direct the cast she has made. “I’ve created a family with my producers and assistant director,” Silva said. “I’m also excited to share a little bit of my mom’s story.” “The First Thanksgiving” will premiere at I Dream in Widescreen at the Fox Theater April 27, 2019.

BY VANESSA ONTIVEROS @NessaMagnifique
rear window A mysterious man was reported lurking outside the Alpha Phi sorority house and looking through windows Oct. 17. An officer from the University of Arizona Police Department arrived on scene at approximately 11:50 p.m. after receiving a call from the housemother stating that a sorority member saw a man, who looked older than college-aged, peeping in. Once the officer arrived, the housemother showed him surveillance footage of the incident. The footage revealed a male suspect entering the house’s front yard at approximately 11:40 p.m. and walking around the corner of the building. He proceeded to look into several different windows in the house before leaving at approximately 11:57 p.m.
At one of the windows, he allegedly looked directly at a sorority member inside the house as she walked by. The officer asked to speak with the sorority member that initially noticed the suspect, as she may have been able to identify him. At this point, the officer received word from another UAPD officer at a nearby 7-Eleven who had spotted a man matching the description of the suspect in the convenience store. The officer drove to the convenience store and positively identified him as the suspect in the security footage. According to the officer at 7-Eleven, the man agreed to speak with the officer, and the officer asked him if he was at the house. The man, who allegedly appeared irritated, said, “Yeah, that was me. I was over at the house. I am the one you are looking for,” according to the police report. Under probable cause, the officer detained the man for further questioning. He handcuffed him and removed him from the store. The officer who identified the man drove slowly past the 7-Eleven with the sorority member who originally saw the suspect outside the house, as she had agreed to see if the man was the same one she saw earlier. She told the officer that she was not able to fully see the suspect outside the house,
but the man detained at 7-Eleven did not appear to be the same person. However, based on the positive identification from officer who saw the footage and the confession from the man, the officer at the 7-Eleven arrested the man for criminal trespass of the first degree, as well as an exclusionary order from all UA property. The man was booked in Pima County Jail.
texas driver The long arm of the law finally caught up to a man from Texas after blowing through a red light led to a traffic stop that revealed a full extradition warrant. A UAPD officer was stopped at the corner of Speedway Boulevard and Cherry Avenue on the night of Oct. 16 at approximately 9:45 p.m. when he spotted a red and blue car speed through the intersection. The officer stopped the car and asked the driver to identify himself. The man complied, giving the officer his Texas driver’s license. Upon completing a records check, the officer discovered that the man had a parole violation warrant out of Texas. The warrant included full extradition and also indicated that the man may have been in possession of an illegal weapon. At this point, two other officers arrived on scene.
The officer who originally initiated the traffic stop had the man step out of the car. While exiting the vehicle, the man told the officer that there was a firearm in the car under his seat. The officer patted the man down and handcuffed him. One of the assisting officers spoke with the car’s passenger, who said that she had no idea there was a firearm in the car. The other assisting officer located and secured a .40 caliber handgun. Once the full extradition warrant was confirmed and the officers also established that the man was not allowed to possess a firearm, the original officer arrested the man. During the arrest, the officer discovered a roll of money in the man’s pocket totaling $347. After the officer read him his rights, the man told him that he was in Arizona staying with the passenger. The passenger corroborated this story. He also stated that he did not know that he had a warrant out on him, though he did admit that he knew he was a prohibited possessor. One of the assistant officers transported the man to Pima County Jail where he was booked for the parole warrant, possession of a firearm by a prohibited possessor and for being an out-of-state fugitive from justice.

ARTS & LIFE | CAMPUS KEY HOLDERS
Locksmith University: ‘The Forgotten Lot’ BY AMBER SOLAND @dailywildcat
In modern society, everything of necessity and importance has a lock and key. The people at the University of Arizona Lock Shop work behind-the-scenes out of old town houses to guarantee security. The Lock Shop cuts the keys and a small band of locksmiths maintains the locks and keys to everything on campus and in affiliation with the UA. Dustin Taylor, supervisor of the Lock Shop, holds the literal keys to the university. “I am the conductor of the orchestra,” Taylor said. “All the people in Lock Shop and the key desk, they are my flute players and my violinists, and I am there to conduct so they can do the best job that they can.” According to Taylor, the Lock Shop cuts upwards of 5,000 keys every year. Keys are made of brass, so they have a certain life expectancy. Depending on how much they are used, they can last anywhere from six months to more than 20 years, according to Taylor. The Lock Shop has several machines for cutting and refurbishing different manners of key, like duplicating machines and codecutting machines, which allows locksmiths to manually cut individual grooves into a key if they know the code for that particular lock. Other machines are designated for more high-security keys, which tend to be very precise. “There are a lot of things that need keys, and until you need one yourself, nobody thinks about it too much,” Taylor said. The Lock Shop does not just make keys for all the doors on campus, but for everything: filing cabinets, lockers, golf carts, electrical panels, panels for plumbing accesses, machines and lab equipment. “If I do my job right, people’s experiments are secure, their purses are secure, their lunches are secure, their offices are secure, their research is secure,” Taylor said. Ten years ago, the Lock Shop operated out of trailers and parking garage offices, but today they work communally from a small townhouse. “It’s very surprising how you can turn an older house that once had a family living in it or something into a lockshop and a key desk, it’s got a different life now,” Taylor said. “It makes for an interesting workspace.” In the old living room are the administrative assistant and four locksmiths, each with their own workstation. A fireplace goes unused except for the tools that cover the mantle, acting as a locksmith’s shelving system. There are three bedrooms; one has been converted into Taylor’s office and the other two are home to four more locksmiths. “Like many other trades, locksmiths
are known packrats,” Taylor said. “We’re a very industrious bunch that likes to keep everything just in case we need it again. It doesn’t look like a hoarder’s house, but we do have our share of parts.” The unique workspace provides for a very community-oriented and educational environment known to Taylor as the “Locksmith University.” “It’s kind of a joke [around the shop] to see if you can measure up to the Locksmith University, because we have a lot of locks on campus. It’s just a wonderful learning experience, the trade aspect of it,” Taylor said. “Whatever you thought you knew on the streets [about locksmithing] or at your former job, forget it, because when you come here, this is where you become a real locksmith.” Though small, the Lock Shop has a very diversely specialized group of locksmiths. “We’re all locksmiths, but we all had a particular field that we excelled at in the outside world,” Taylor said. Taylor himself has a prison background, having worked as a locksmith for 19 years at the Department of Corrections. “I could help you in and out of prison all day long,” Taylor said. One gentleman is considered by many in the locksmith community to be an expert at repairing safes (and opening them too). Another is a genius of automotive and cabinetry locks. He can look at a key and tell where it came from, who made it and the year that it was manufactured. “All of us have talked enough to where there is not much we couldn’t get into,” Taylor said. “Or out of, for that matter.” The locksmiths of the UA are a talented but “forgotten lot”, said Taylor. Locksmithing is not an incredibly rewarding field, and few think about those who make their daily routine possible, but there is a greater appeal. It’s a down-to-earth career, according to Taylor. He said he relishes the independence over his stations he is afforded as supervisor, given all the tools, people and money he needs to get the job done, no matter the obstacle. The community, too, is kind and a reward in itself. “It helps a bad situation not be so bad when you have a group of people who will help you when you need it,” Taylor said. “That’s the best part of the day, this community that we have.” And in a world where jobs are becoming increasingly automated, often at risk of disappearing with the implementation of robots, locksmithing seems safe from the grips of newer technology. “You just can’t beat a good old fashioned key,” Taylor said.

FIVE STATS FROM UA VS. OREGON BY AMIT SYAL @DailyWildcat
Arizona football defeated No. 19 Oregon by a final score of 44-15 on Saturday. Here’s a rundown of stats that helped determine the outcome of the game

212 87
AMY BAILEY | THE DAILY WILDCAT
RUNNING BACK J.J. TAYLOR 21 runs past Oregon’s defense during the third quarter of the Arizona-Oregon game Saturday, Oct. 27.
Taylor rushed for 212 yards on 30 carries. Taylor clocked in two touchdowns for the Wildcats to contribute fourteen points on the board. “I wasn’t thinking about anything else but helping my teammates,” Taylor said after his 200+ yard rushing game.
Arizona’s defense held potential top-five pick Justin Herbert to just 87 yards, passing, in the first half. The Oregon star went 11 for 23 in the first 30 minutes of play with only 87 yards and an interception to show for it.
Arizona running back J.J. Taylor got his sixth career 100-yard rushing game, which also put him at over 2,000 rushing yards on his career. Taylor is only the 13th player in Arizona history with 2,000+ rushing yards. “He’s a great example to a lot of our younger players … He’s a great example for this program and what we want, as a competitor and as a person,” head coach Kevin Sumlin said about Taylor.
96 Arizona receiver Shun Brown went for 96 yards on 10 catches and one touchdown. “We talked about playing four quarters,” Sumlin said. “Not [about] playing a perfect game, but playing four quarters, and we did that.” Brown clearly capitalized on playing a full 60 minutes with his impressive numbers on the big night.

SPORTS | FOOTBALL ANALYSIS
DEFENSE KEEPS DUCKS GROUNDED Arizona holds Oregon to their lowest total yardage since 2010 in the Homecoming upset BY ROB KLEIFIELD @RobKleifield
There must have been something in the air on Saturday night. Football head coach Kevin Sumlin’s team put together its most efficient game of the year, upsetting the No. 19-ranked Oregon Ducks in blowout fashion, ending 44-15. Arizona’s first-half performance set the tone against Oregon as the Wildcats entered the locker room with a 23-8 lead. It didn’t take long for Arizona to get on the board, as quarterback Khalil Tate re-entered the starting line-up and orchestrated a seven-play, 75-yard scoring drive on the Wildcats’ first offensive series. Arizona’s defense, however, was the true catalyst in the Wildcats’ eventful 44-15 victory on Homecoming night, and it was certainly a sight to behold. Defensive coordinator Marcel Yates’ unit limited Oregon’s high-powered offense — led by potential firstround draft pick Justin Herbert — to just 124 total yards before the break. The Wildcats’ relentless defensive performance couldn’t have come at a more appropriate time, and, unlike previous games, it lasted the duration of the contest. Entering Saturday night’s game, Arizona’s defense ranked near the bottom of the Pac-12 in several significant categories. A season chock-full of defensive mistakes didn’t appear to have any effect on the Wildcats this game, though. Instead of looking back, Arizona looked forward. Colin Schooler and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles ignited Arizona’s defense to help Tate and company get over the hump and collect the first notable win of the Sumlin era. Arizona’s defensive leaders held their teammates to a new standard of sorts — routinely getting off the field on third down and forcing three pivotal turnovers — on their way to upsetting the highly favored Ducks. In a game that many people expected to go in the complete opposite direction, it’s hard to ignore just how unlikely Arizona’s statement win really was. On paper, Oregon was considered to be the more talented and better-coached team. After last weekend’s crushing defeat to Washington State, the Ducks were primed to come out with a chip on their shoulder and spoil any and all hope for Arizona to reach bowl eligibility. Sumlin’s squad had other ideas, though, and it involved exposing nearly all of the Ducks’ flaws. Arizona offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone was eager to dial up one deep-pass play after another — more often than not Tate had receivers open downfield — and as a result Oregon’s defense started to play back on their heels. As the game progressed Arizona’s willingness to stretch the field opened up running lanes for running backs J.J. Taylor and Gary Brightwell. Taylor capped off a monster, 212-yard night with a somersault into the end zone with less than five minutes to play. Although there were still several occasions when

the Wildcat rushing attack was put on the back burner, Arizona’s offense was productive enough in the passing game to maintain time of possession and wear the Ducks’ defense down. In the first half alone, Arizona possessed the football for nearly twice as long as Oregon did. Thanks to terrific time management — and a clock-consuming 18-play, 88-yard drive in the second quarter — the Wildcats were able to keep Oregon’s offense on the sideline and out of rhythm. Not that it would have mattered much. When the Ducks were on the field there was typically little to no room to run. Despite fielding a noticeably larger offensive line with a talented group of ball carriers in the backfield, Oregon’s ground game was nearly nonexistent. The most telling signs of Arizona’s defensive improvements came in the form of applying pressure and staying in phase in coverage down the field. Arizona’s defensive line regularly found itself in Herbert’s face, forcing the Ducks quarterback to make undesirable throws — one time luring him to take a shot outside of the pocket, only to be intercepted by safety Scottie Young Jr. who read Herbert’s eyes the entire way. The increased pressure provided Arizona’s offense with ample opportunities time and time again. Oregon failed to keep drives alive, converting just three of 16 third downs and ultimately punting the ball back to the ‘Cats nine times. In the first half a combination of turnovers, including
a blocked punt, and Oregon’s inability to stay on the field allowed Arizona’s offense to connect on a trio of field goal attempts. After exiting the locker room for the second time, Oregon’s offensive troubles led to a pair of third-quarter touchdowns for the Wildcats. Arizona’s margin of victory would only increase from there. Tate made up for a handful of missed throws by completing the ones that were necessary to prevail. He also showed an excellent repertoire with receivers Shawn Poindexter and Shun Brown. Tate’s production on the ground wasn’t convincing in terms of being 100 percent healthy, but it was clear that his teammates were thrilled to have him back in action. Not many people envisioned Arizona playing lights out, in all three phases, for all four quarters, on Saturday night, but that’s what makes college football so great. Sumlin’s team may have outplayed their expectations, but they likely didn’t play out of their mind. The Wildcats were simply firing on all cylinders — and it couldn’t have come at a better time. Arizona is now just two wins shy of becoming bowl eligible. With an deal matchup versus Colorado at home, slated for next Friday night, it’s suddenly not impossible to imagine the Wildcats playing in December. Perhaps the Territorial Cup will hold greater implications than its annual rivalry. Both teams could very well be fighting for their sixth win over Thanksgiving weekend.

NEWS | SKELETAL FINDINGS
‘Vampire burial’ discovered by UA archeologists BY MARK LAWSON @TheLawson_1
With Halloween just a few days away, University of Arizona archaeologist David Soren, along with other archaeologists from the UA, Stanford and Italy, made a “fang-tastic” discovery. On Oct. 11 a 10-year-old’s body was discovered at a fifth-century cemetery in Italy, according to a UA News press release. While the discovery of a body from this time period is always fascinating, what made this discovery stand out was how the body was buried. A stone was placed inside the child’s mouth in what is known as a “vampire burial.” The purpose of the stone would have been to prevent the child from rising from the dead and spreading malaria to everyone around. While Soren himself wasn’t there for the discovery, he nonetheless heard about it right away. “I was in contact via Skype with our UA team over there,” Soren said. “Right by the burial was a twoor three-year-old girl buried with stones on her hands and a large tile over her feet to hold her down as well. I had discovered that thirty years ago, but David Pickel, our current site director, was unable to excavate the new burial until now.” The body was found at La Necropoli dei Bambini,
which translates to “Cemetery of the Babies.” The cemetery dates back to the fifth century, when an outbreak of malaria swept over the area. “I always try to choose unique sites if I can,” Soren said. “There is no point in digging up a site where you don’t learn something unique. This site in particular proved to be the earliest ever found with clear DNA evidence of malaria.” Archaeologists had previously believed the cemetery was strictly for infants, toddlers and unborn fetuses, with the three-year-old being the oldest child found before this. “The people of the fifth century were following their local religious beliefs,” Soren said. “They employed witches or healers to try and rid the area of what to them seemed like a paranormal event. They thought they were being religious, not superstitious.” The newly found child’s age was based on dental development, and the sex is unknown. “There are still sections of the cemetery that we haven’t excavated yet, so we don’t know if we’ll find other older kids,” said bioarcheologist Jordan Wilson, a UA doctoral student who analyzed the remains in Italy. The discovery of the 10-year-old was the first at the cemetery with a stone found inside of its mouth. The position of the child’s jaw, which would not have opened due to natural causes during decomposition,

means the rock was purposely placed into the mouth after death. While the threat of vampires is not something we need to worry about any time soon, having some garlic cloves and wooden stakes available might eventually come in handy down the road. “I’d choose the stake,” said Soren jokingly on how he’d rid the world of vampires. “I probably wouldn’t mind the vampire so much, but I can’t stand being around individuals with bad breath.”

Hillel holds vigil, honors Jews shot in Pittsburgh BY EMILY CHRESSANTHIS @DailyWildcat
People of all faiths stood in solidarity with the Pittsburg Tree of Life Synagogue after the shooting that killed 11 people on Friday, Oct. 27, honoring the victims during vigils on and off campus on Monday, Oct 29. On campus, Hillel at the University of Arizona held a vigil on the UA Mall, where students, Hillel professionals and the Jewish Arizonans on Campus (JAC) Rabbi sang, read prayers and poems and spoke about the tragedy. “We are reeling from the events of the past week,” Hillel Executive Director Michelle Blumenburg said to the crowd. “Fourteen pipe bombs delivered to elected officials and others. Two African Americans murdered at a grocery store in Kentucky because they were Black. And now the horror of this past Saturday. The pure hatred of these acts is beyond comprehension. Our community has faced violence before. In twelve days we will be observing the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the night of broken glass, in Germany. We have seen and continue to see what happens when hatred is allowed to go unchecked.” This event was planned in two hours by Blumenburg and her team of other Hillel professionals, who reached out to partner with JAC and Chabad. For Eri Svenson, Director of Jewish Student Life at Hillel, this event was important to show Hillel’s support of Jewish students on campus. “I would say that as Hillel professionals, what we hope to do is to create a Jewish community on campus and support Jewish students in whatever way makes sense for
them at the time that they need it, so I’m thankful for the opportunity to be a Hillel professional in this moment,” Svenson said. “I wish it wasn’t necessary, but I’m glad that we can be there for the students.” Svenson read the Mourner’s Kaddish, a prayer that is usually only read by one person and with a response by the congregation. However, Svenson invited everyone say the prayer, because, “today we are all mourners and a part of the congregation.” Rabbi Moshe Schonbrun spoke at the vigil on anti-semitism and holding onto hope and love. “They often say that there are two things you can have wherever you are in the world. One is Coca-cola and one is Chabad… I want to add a third thing, and that is anti-semitism. It doesn’t matter if there are Jews living there or if there aren’t, if they’re poor or they’re rich, if they’re assimilated or they’re distinct, Jews are hated.” Schonbrun said that the way to make change is to spread kindness and hope, something that the victims of the shooting can no longer do. “They can’t continue now, but we can. We can commit ourselves to values of kindness, to values of love and hope,” he said. “Instead of finger-pointing we can reflect and try to make change in the world because that is our ‘etz chaim’, that is our ‘tree of life.’” Prayers read include Mi Shebeirach and Oseh Shalom, both of which were also read at the Tucson Jewish Community Center that evening. At both services, the names of the deceased were read: • David Rosenthal, 54, and Cecil Rosenthal, 59: The Rosenthals were brothers who greeted people at the door. • Bernice Simon, 84, and Sylvan Simon,

Mrs. Simon was a retired nurse and Mr. Simon was a retired accountant. • Daniel Stein, 71: Stein once served as president of the New Light Congregation in the synagogue . • Dr. Jerry Rabinowitz, 66: Dr. Rabinowitz was one of the first doctors in the area who was willing to treat AIDs. He lost his life trying to help the wounded. • Richard Gottfried, 65: Richard was a dentist who volunteered his time and services at a local free dental clinic. • Joyce Fienberg, 75: Fienberg was a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh’s Learning Research and Development Center. • Rose Mallinger, 97: Mallinger was a former school secretary, mother and grandmother. • Melvin Wax, 88: Wax was a retired accountant and grandfather. • Irving Younger, 69: Younger was a father and grandfather, former small business owner and youth baseball coach. A speaker at the evening vigil said, “these are not just numbers. They’re not just names. They are people.” At the JCC on Monday night, hundreds of community members, of all faiths and ages, gathered to again pray for peace and mourn the victims. The Tucson Muslim Community leader sang a prayer, and he, as well as leaders of the other denominations present, spoke of how they stand with the Jewish community at this time and offer their support. For the students that were in attendance, anti-semitism is not an unfamiliar experience. “Especially in high school it was really
bad,” global studies freshman Quinn Mcveigh said. “People made a lot of really messed up jokes, but they didn’t really know what the significance of those jokes were, or people would throw pennies and tell me to go fetch them, you know, really messed up things like that.” Another student, Maya Griswold, said “last year I was paid to play at an Easter service for one of the congregations in town and in the reverend’s sermon she said several pretty anti-semitic things, which was quite concerning because she was speaking to a large congregation. And there were two separate services because there were so many people, so she said these things on two different occasions which was probably the most concerning anti-semitism I’ve experienced.” The students spoke on why hate crimes like the shooting in Pittsburgh keep happening. “I think guns are the problem, also antisemitism, but, yeah, guns… and I think a lot of people aren’t as educated as they should be on the issues that are happening around the world, especially towards Jews,” said Rachel Monheit, a freshman and nutritional sciences major. Despite all this, there is hope for the future, as illustrated by speakers at the evening vigil. “May humankind recognize we are all connected; there is only us,” one Rabbi said. “That fear and hatred will be supplanted by love... I pray that we all remember our common humanity, and that love is always stronger than hate.”

60% of UA students stop drinking at least 1 to 2 hours before going home. (2018 Health & Wellness Survey, n = 5,438)
Why do students feel pressured to drink at a party? Okay, stop me if you’ve heard this one. A reporter was interviewing a 104 yearold woman: “And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?” the reporter asked. She simply replied, “No peer pressure.” The desire to belong and conform to one’s peer group is very powerful and does not stop after high school. In college, when students experience a time of transition and social freedom, peers continue to play a strong role. Peer pressure is frequently cited as a cause for excessive drinking among college students. It comes as no surprise that students entering college show marked increases in alcohol and drug use compared to those who continue to live at home or get jobs following graduation from high school. Regarding alcohol, research describes peer pressure as a combination of three distinct influences: overt offer of alcohol, modeling, and social norms. Overt offers of alcohol range from polite gestures to intense goading or commands to drink, like during drinking games. Modeling occurs from direct imitation of another
student’s concurrent drinking behavior. Perceived social norms serve to make excessive drinking appear common to student expectations. Many view college as a place to drink excessively, in a time-limited fashion, before assuming responsibilities of adulthood. Combining all this with easily accessible alcohol-based social opportunities can make navigating around peer pressure challenging. However, there is good news about being a college student embracing adulthood. You have arrived at an age, time, and place where you can demonstrate greater ego strength as you try on new identities and behaviors safely. You can differentiate yourself from others and not get wasted in order to party or have fun. Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who party in moderation and create your own positive peer pressure circle of friends. Okay, stop me if you’ve heard this one before. A reporter was interviewing a 19 year-old woman: “And what do you think is the best thing about being a self-assured 19?” the reporter asked. She simply replied, “No beer pressure.”

ARIZONA SOCCER FACES ASU IN SEASON FINALE BY ALEX MUNOZ @Alex_MunozDW
Arizona heads west on the I-10 looking to close out the regular season on the road with a win against in-state rival Arizona State Friday, Nov. 2. After dropping their season opener 1-0 to Albany Aug. 17 the Wildcats went on a seven-game win streak as they outscored their opponents by a colossal 21-2. Arizona’s win streak came to a halt in Palo Alto after being shut out 0-2 to powerhouse Stanford. The Wildcats have managed only four wins since by beating Utah, Washington, Washington State and Oregon State. They’ve dropped another
three, with losses to USC, UCLA and Oregon, and have settled on two draws against Colorado and Cal. The Wildcats are currently ranked No. 27 per NCAA Women’s Soccer RPI as the fourth-best Pac-12 team, behind Stanford, USC and UCLA. Coming in at No. 40, the Sun Devils and the Wildcats are only separated by one game as they both hold close to identical records with ASU at 10-5-1 and Arizona at 11-5-1. On paper, Arizona has the edge, as they’ve scored a total of 33 goals while only allowing 16. ASU, on the other hand, has scored 28 goals and has allowed 17. Forward Jada Talley leads the Wildcats with a team-high seven goals. The Sun Devils close out their season two days after their match with Arizona by hosting No. 1 Stanford in Tempe
Sunday, Nov. 4. Arizona will find out if it’s one of 64 teams to be selected for the tournament on Monday, Nov. 5, when the NCAA releases the 2018 NCAA Division l Women’s Soccer Championship bracket. If the Wildcats are selected, they will be making back-to-back appearances and more than likely will resume play Nov. 12 in the first round. Last year nobody had Arizona penciled in at the start of the season as making the tournament. The Wildcats made it past the first round by defeating TCU 2-1, but was then shut out 2-0 by a more talented Florida State team in the second round. For Arizona, it’s all about controlling what you can control, and that starts with getting a win Friday in Tempe.

OPINION | HONORS VILLAGE
Honor-bound to living on campus The Honors Village is opening in Fall 2019, and while some students are excited to go, others have their reservations about the idea altogether. These are what some columnists think about the Honors Village’s exclusivity CAT CAST

As someone with no affiliation with the Honors program whatsoever, I don’t feel the Honors Village is too exclusive. It looks like another form of housing that has a set of requirements like some other dorms do. There are dorms that only cater to grad students; are they exclusive too? I think part of the allure of the UA Honors program is that it is somewhat distinct from the rest of the student body.
Toni Marcheva
Having lived in an honors community for three years, it makes sense to have a community for people who are generally focused more on their studies than other students. However, I also think the cost of the Honors Village will make it exclusive to students of a higher socio-economic status, which is not okay if it will be marketed as an “honors community.” The Honors College needs to provide information about scholarships as soon as possible, and these scholarships need to be substantial. Lastly, I think what will make the Honors Village appear to be so exclusive will be its isolation from campus. It is not unrealistically far to travel to campus for events, though I think it is far enough to keep students from going to many on-campus Residence Hall Association or dorm events with the rest of the student body. This could be a problem (but doesn’t have to be if the Honors College addresses it), because if there is one lesson that all honors students need to learn, it is that they are not “all that,” and there is a lot that each of us can learn from any student, whether or not they have an “honors” label attached to their names.
The University of Arizona’s newest (and very drastic) construction project has created a noteworthy buzz: the “Honors Village”, set to open in fall 2019, is being made to sound like heaven on Earth. According to the UA Honors College website, “The University of Arizona Honors Village features dorm and apartment-style housing for more than 1,000 Honors Wildcats. With integrated dining, collaborative learning classrooms, an interior courtyard, faculty and staff offices, a Campus Recreation Center and Campus Health Service Counseling & Psych Services (CAPS) satellite, the Honors Village will be the hub for the Honors community.” Aside from the price aspect, I find there is something very elitist about it. Though its buzzword-laden description is quite attractive, something about it just doesn’t sit right with me. Sure, it has the ability to bring in more students from across the country (and even world) and make the horrors of dorm life a thing of the past, but it just seems so unnecessarily elaborate. Another tidbit on the Honors website states that students may “Connect with [other] Honors students, faculty, and staff without stepping foot outside of the building.” It’s a great appeal to convenience, but it seems like it disregards an essential part of the college experience: being forced to walk long distances on a huge campus in 1000 degree weather, because you don’t know where your next class is. Why would you want to miss out on that?

La Paz Ariday Sued
Yes, I am bitter. The Honors Village is honestly somewhere I want to live. But yes, you have guessed correctly: I cannot, because I am not in the Honors College. I feel like the Honors Village is exactly what the university needed, but instead of just for honors, they should include other students. I personally feel like I am hard working and deserving of having the amenities the Honors Village provides, such as having an apartment-style dorm. Although I would love to live there, there are honors students who probably cannot. The Honors Village will be the most expensive dorm to live in starting fall 2019. If the Honors program is going to be exclusive to just their students, they should definitely accommodate those students that cannot afford this lavish style of living. The Honors Village, according to the website, is a critical addition to the college, so, if this is so, the capacity should be over 1,000 residents. Nevertheless, there is no doubt in my mind that the Honors Village will attact many students around the country.

OPINION | DORMS
To the Honors College: Yuma still has its perks OPINION
BY TONI MARCHEVA @ToniToniToni_M
S
ome Yuma Hall residents get overly obsessed with their dorm, and I am a poster child for that obsession. I’m here again for a third year, and I just love it — the people, the community and even Yuma’s smell have grown on me. So, out of my affection, I am speaking one final plea on behalf of Yuma as an honors dorm. Next year, Yuma will no longer be an honors dorm. Students who want to live in a designated honors community will need to live in the new Honors Village. I think this is a mistake. Admittedly, I have been skeptical of the Honors Village from the beginning, but I can see now that a lot of people are really excited to live there. It will come with great features, including its own dining hall and honors classrooms. Also, there is something to say about all honors students living together in a united community. The two current honors dorms, Yuma and Árbol de la Vida, are disparate communities that rarely interact. However, we can see currently that although Árbol is an objectively nicer dorm, it doesn’t attract 100 percent of honors students. There are reasons why Yuma always fills so fast during the housing selection process, even when Árbol doesn’t fill. My guess is that the No. 1 reason is cost. Not all honors students come from families who can afford to put down an extra
thousand-and-a-half so they can live in Árbol. However, the cost of a room for a year in Árbol, $8,370, is less than the cheapest option in the Honors Village: $8,850 for a double-suite dorm room. Also, unlike other dorms, students in the Honors Village are required to purchase meal plans. First-year students will be automatically signed up for an Ocotillo Swipe Plan, which costs $5,580 per year and includes 15 meals per week and $400 in CatCash. The Honors College points out it is not mandating the meal plan, but rather University of Arizona Dining Services is. The cost can’t be brushed off for this reason, though; it is still part of the cost of living at the new honors complex. So, the lowest price room and board costs $12,250 for the year, while Yuma, with the smallest meal plan, costs $9,110. Some residents, for cost reasons, choose to go without a meal plan, making the cost of housing $6,960 for the year — less than half of the Honors Village. There are important points to make about cost. First, not all honors students need to live in the Honors Village (and I ask the UA to please, please, please never move to a mandated stay like Barrett, the Honors College in Tempe, has). However, this means that a prerequisite for being part of the honors community is either having a lot of money or being willing to take on extra debt. I know the Honors College previously has not liked the comparison with Barrett, but the rates and options are starting to look quite similar. Second, there will be scholarships available. However, at the time of their presentation in Yuma Hall in mid-October, the Honors College did not have information as to what those would look like, even though the application to live in the Honors Village opened on Oct. 1. Should students then gamble and guess that the scholarships provided can make it affordable for them? I cannot imagine that enough scholarships can
be provided to enough students to make the Honors Village comparable to Yuma pricing for residents who need it. If the Honors College can show that it has several hundred $5,000 scholarships to give out, then my complaints about the Honors Village will virtually disappear. There are other reasons why residents choose Yuma. Some might like its proximity to the center of campus. I (and many others) chose it because we love the feel of it. When I toured both Árbol and Yuma before my freshman year, I immediately fell in love with Yuma’s size, coziness, age, history and tradition of a tight-knit community. Yuma is well known for its strong community, and for this reason it has an incredibly high rate of returning students. Also, some of us young people were just born old people, and new things don’t impress us much. Even if students can afford the Honors Village, some might prefer the humble yet mighty Yuma Hall. One thing that attracted me so much to UA’s honors program versus ASU’s was the choice. Unlike ASU, at UA I could choose if I wanted to live on campus, if I wanted a meal plan and what kind of community I wanted to live in. Removing Yuma as an option for an honors community removes some of this choice. It makes numerical sense to remove Yuma from the honors housing list. There will be more beds in the village than in Yuma and Árbol, combined. However, it’s important to point out that while the Honors College is building something great, it is also losing something special. Yuma will be missed. — Toni Marcheva is a junior whose college experience has been defined in part by her experiences in Yuma Hall.
