UAMC fights language barriers Doctors will connect to patients through interpreters, translators SARAH-JAYNE SIMON Arizona Daily Wildcat

UAMC has expanded its language access program to more efficiently accommodate patients who are hearing impaired or have limited English proficiency.

Through a new partnership with Language Services Associates, a company that provides translation and interpreter services, University of Arizona Medical Center clinicians will be

able to remotely access video of American Sign Language and foreign language interpreters on a laptop computer within minutes of first interacting with the patient.

“There is no delay in trying to find someone to translate,” said Heidi Costello, director of nursing for adult health services. “There are no barriers to provide care.”

UAMC demonstrated its Video Remote Interpreting service on Friday.

“We look forward to helping UAMC better

meet the needs of its deaf, hard of hearing and non-English speaking patient populations through our full suite of interpretation and translation services,” said Starla Keith, the executive vice president of Language Services Associates.

Language Services Associates offers certified medical interpreters for more than 200 languages and dialects, according to Patient Care Manager Amy Caster-Winegart, who added that Tucson’s diversity makes communication in a variety of

languages a necessity.

UAMC plans to use its new Video Remote Interpreting service to help facilitate communications across a wide variety of patient care settings throughout University Campus, South Campus and Diamond Children’s, which many speculate will put patients who encounter language barriers more at ease.

“It is very easy [for the patients] to use and

Walk celebrates transgender artists, community awareness BRITTNY MEJIA Arizona Daily Wildcat

A Trans Art Walk held Monday night exposed attendees to transgender artists and sought to promote awareness regarding the transgender community.

The walk kicked off with a poetry reading at Wingspan, followed by a walk to Casa Libre, Studio One and Fluxx Studio and Gallery to view artwork that was either created by transgender artists or depicted an aspect of transgender identities.

Some of those in attendance said the walk and the artwork acted as a celebration of the transgender community.

“All of it is designed to be artwork by trans folks in the community,” said Rae Strozzo, program coordinator for the Southern Arizona Gender Alliance and one of the artists showing his work.

“Some of it’s about those issues, some of it’s not,” Strozzo added. “This is part of the celebration aspect of Transgender Awareness Week.”

At each location, artists either spoke about their experiences, or attendees could read about the artist’s struggle or direction with their artwork in a statement within the gallery.

“I feel everyone has a different opinion about what the main benefits are, but I feel one of the main benefits of having an event like this is getting the trans experience out in the open,” said Zami Tinashe Hyemingway , a youth programs coordinator, who presented a poem he wrote.

Ryan Dolan, a history junior, and Eric Ptak, a psychology senior, came to write about the walk for their class, History of Modern Sexualities. Their assignment was to write

Council honors UA’s first female president RACHEL MCCLUSKEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

In recognition of her service as the university’s first female president, Ann Weaver Hart was honored Monday with an award and an engraving of her name in the Women’s Plaza of Honor.

Sponsors, UA faculty, students and Tucson community members met at the plaza for the 16th annual Women Who Lead reception.

The Women’s Studies Advisory Council gave attendees gift bags, and also offered an open bar and food table at the event.

“I’m tremendously honored to be here,” Hart said. “I’ve been the first woman president in other positions, so for me it’s ‘you’re the president,’ and you just move in and get your work done.

“I am very, very proud to be here at the University of Arizona. It’s a wonderful team to join and a great honor to be here.”

Her husband, Randy Hart, said he was also excited for his wife to receive the honor at the

HART, 2

After working for the UA for 34 years, Oscar Lujan, program coordinator for multicultural alumni groups, has decided to retire and start a new chapter of his life.

Lujan began his career at the UA as a 24-year-old mail handler in 1979. After “bombing” his second year of college, Lujan said he wanted to work at the university first and then continue to pursue his degree.

Networking, Lujan said, helped him succeed, and is a skill he tries to teach the many students he has worked with.

“I wouldn’t know what networking was but I was doing it,” he said.

As a mail handler, Lujan said

he became a liaison between many university departments, a theme he carried over into his job as a coordinator and mentor for the multicultural alumni associations.

Lujan helped students connect with alumni in the professional world to ensure that they were successful in their career.

Lujan went back to school in 1990, taking three to six credits at a time until he graduated in 2009. Lujan said he wanted to really understand the material, not just get his degree.

“I wanted to learn,” Lujan said.

“I’m a lifelong learner.”

His mail clerk shifts were from 4 a.m. to noon, Lujan said, and he wanted to volunteer his free time after work to students.

When Lujan heard that the

Alumni Association needed mentors for their UA Hispanic Alumni club, Lujan applied and became a mentor in 2000.

As a mentor, Lujan began to read students’ applications and personal essays for the club’s scholarship program, which strengthened Lujan’s desire to help students financially and with mentoring.

“Everybody has difficulty and everybody needs support,” he said. “I think the greatest that a student can get is knowing that there’s somebody there that they could talk to and identify with their situation.

You kind of want to answer the questions that they don’t want to ask.”

After being hired to work with Hispanic scholarship recipients, Lujan realized that the other three multicultural clubs also needed help and direction. Lujan worked with the UA Black Alumni Club, American Indian Alumni Club and the Asian American Faculty, Staff and Alumni Association, helping them plan events and connecting all four groups through monthly meetings.

“He goes above and beyond for not just the clubs he works with, but also the students,” said Nicholas Wilson, senior program coordinator for scholarship stewardship and a member of the American Indian Alumni Club.

Hart emphasized that people should not assume others do not have dreams and aspirations, no matter what position they hold.

“Oscar has a great memory,” he added. “He remembers our passion, our interest, whatever we’re focused in, whatever we’re going through at that moment … He has a special way of connecting with students at a personal level.”

Lujan’s family-oriented lifestyle is reflected in the way he works with students, according to Vargas, who said Lujan often emphasized the importance of family values to students.

“He’s always reminding us how special and how important our families are,” Vargas said.

While Lujan’s job was to help the multicultural clubs plan events and be a mentor to students in the Hispanic scholarship program, he also went out of his way to help students with personal problems, Vargas said.

Lujan focused on ensuring that students’ scholarships are renewable throughout their college career, including students who are fifth-year seniors.

“We want to keep those students and renew their scholarships,” Lujan said.

Since announcing his retirement plans, Lujan said he’s received more than 50 emails from students thanking him for his work at the UA. “He has provided me the greatest resources, the opportunities … I’m in deep gratitude with him,” Vargas said. “He will be sorely missed by all the students.”

UA sees rise in veteran enrollment MATT BURNS Arizona Daily Wildcat

An increase in veteran enrollment at the UA can be attributed to the rise in G.I. Bill use, as well as troops returning from the war in Afghanistan.

Assistant Registrar Cori Cashen said that the enrollment of students using the G.I. Bill is 200 more than last semester. The growing number of veteran students is due to the larger general population of veterans now that involvement in Afghanistan has begun to decline,

said Maralynn Bernstein, Veterans’ Services coordinator.

“Obviously there are many factors which have contributed to the increased numbers of veterans seeking higher education,” said Ricardo Pereyda, president of the UA Veterans club. “These range from a generous G.I. Bill, to in-state tuition, priority registration and — in my opinion, the most important factor — a strong support network on campus.”

Cashen said the retention rate of veteran students at the UA is 72 percent. That number is

higher than the national average, Bernstein said, adding that veteran students are commonly forced to drop out of school because of conflicts with other commitments, such as family.

“The change from soldier to a student is also difficult, depending on the circumstances that the different veterans have been through in the past,” Bernstein said.

“I work on it every day, I have students come in and sit in front of me and tell me their stories, and tell me where they’re having struggles and where they’re having

issues.”

According to Bernstein, Arizona has a high population of veterans compared to other states, resulting in the need for many resources at the UA for veteran students.

Some resources include a student veteran center, which assists veterans in enrolling and adjusting to college, and staff at UA who understand veteran benefits and how to maximize their usefulness to the veteran students.

“They don’t have the luxury of taking different classes and experimenting, whereas a lot

of your typical students take five years to get their bachelor’s (degree),” Bernstein said.

Additionally, the UA provides on-campus psychology to assist students suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder.

“These are all hugely important to the success of the student because these students have other obligations,” Bernstein said. “A lot of them have family, a lot of them have children.

Anything we can do to make things easier for the students, we’re trying to do.”

Hostess, union agree to postpone liquidation MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

There may be hope for Twinkies after all: Hostess Brands Inc. and its striking union agreed to a mediation that will forestall the company’s planned liquidation for the time being.

At a bankruptcy court hearing Monday in New York, 82-yearold Hostess had planned to ask permission to start shutting down its business. Instead, Judge Robert Drain urged the company and the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International union to consider mediation.

Both sides agreed to try to work through their conflict, which would preserve more than 18,000 jobs that will otherwise disappear if the Irving, Texas-based company closes its doors. Mediation hearings will begin in private on Tuesday.

The hearing to consider Hostess’ motion to wind itself down is

adjourned until Wednesday morning, according to the company.

Production “remains shut down,” it said.

Hostess has 565 distribution centers around the country, as well as 33 bakeries and 570 bakery outlets.

On Friday, Hostess said it would go out of business, blaming a strike by members of the BCTGM union. Workers who walked out accused the company of slashing benefits and wages while rewarding managers with substantial pay raises.

Within days, a suite of suitors emerged, vying to control brands such as Ho Ho’s and Ding Dongs.

“There’s a whole host of huge food companies out there that have the financial wherewithal to take over the Twinkies brand and make money off of it,” said Anthony Michael Sabino, a business professor at St. John’s University.

“There could be very spirited

bidding.”

Florida-based private equity firm Sun Capital Partners said it hoped to buy the company with a more union-friendly deal, according to Fortune.

Flowers Foods, parent to the Nature’s Own brand, is also in the mix. The Georgia-based baking company said Monday that it has extended its loan agreements, allowing it to access more funds for “acquisition financing” and “expansion goals,” among other purposes. To analysts, the move signaled that Flowers is interested in picking up Hostess.

Hurst Capital filed a letter of intent in bankruptcy court Monday to buy Hostess’ assets — including intellectual property and office supplies — in a “multimillion dollar” offer.

Reports over the weekend also named Bimbo Group, the Mexican company that owns Sara Lee and Entenmann’s.

Grade schoolers’ arrests alarm justice officials MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

ORLANDO, Fla. — Janay Jelks loves singing, coloring and Dora the Explorer. She’s 12 but has the mental age of a preschooler.

She also has a felony rap sheet.

Janay has been arrested three times since September at Cherokee School, an Orlando elementary school designed to be a safe place for the youngest Orange County students with severe emotional problems.

She’s not alone. Since the start of school in August, police have arrested 11 students a total of 14 times at Cherokee, which has an enrollment of 57.

The spate of arrests, which includes at least nine felony charges, has alarmed Orange County’s juvenile justice community and prompted a judge to meet with the school’s

principal.

Janay was charged with felonies for poking a police officer with her finger, throwing small plastic blocks in her teacher’s face and hitting her principal, according to interviews and arrest affidavits. In Florida, any battery on a teacher or law enforcement officer is a felony, even if there is no injury.

“I’m just really shocked. Really? Felony assault?” said Letasha Brown, Janay’s mother.

Circuit Judge Alicia Latimore, one of three judges who handles juvenile delinquency cases in Orange County, was so concerned about the arrests that she visited Cherokee’s campus this fall.

The arrests at Cherokee outnumber the arrests of students at the county’s 121 other public elementary schools combined.

able to hit or batter freely, but it should be taken into account that children are placed in Cherokee for a reason,” Latimore said.

Most of the cases involved a single slap, punch or kick and did not cause injury, she said.

“They have the right to contact law enforcement,” Latimore added. “I just wish the staff and the teachers would not choose to do it so frequently.”

The school typically calls police, she said, only when a student can’t be calmed down after 20 to 30 minutes of “intense” behavior.

Her staff members are trained to physically restrain children who pose an imminent danger to themselves or others. They have used those techniques 53 times this fall, records show.

But in a school for students with troubling

behaviors, law enforcement is sometimes needed, she said, saying that some of her staff have been injured by students in the past few months. Some, she noted, also have declined to press charges against their students.

“I’m charged with taking care of children and keeping them safe and providing them with an education,” said Clenton-Martin, who is in her first year running Cherokee after serving as an assistant principal at a school for older students with emotional disabilities.

“Nobody wants to see a child arrested.”

Orange Superintendent Barbara Jenkins said her staff is looking into the issue.

“Of course we’re concerned with an increase in arrests at Cherokee,” particularly because of the special needs of the children there, she said. We need to “see if we can bring some remedy to those increases.”

Israel defense warranted, but unilateral support can be dangerous Jason Krell Arizona Daily Wildcat

A

s a Jew, deciding who is right in the Israeli conflict is extremely difficult.

All of my Jewish friends are posting statuses like “No matter what, I stand with Israel” and all kinds of things in Hebrew on Facebook, but I can’t help but feel torn. On one hand, I will always want there to be a home for my people. But on the other hand, it’s hard to know when airstrikes stop becoming effective and start becoming unnecessary.

The one thing I do know is that unilateral support in any group is a terrible idea. Standing up for any group in spite of infringements on human rights is a slippery slope that can lead to a dangerous result: Accepting that such actions are OK. That’s not to say that Israel is necessarily violating human rights.

Hamas, the militant group running Palestine since 2007, is a terrorist organization. The U.S., and other countries including those in the European Union, classify it as such.

If anyone is constantly violating human rights, it’s Hamas.

Israel was being proactive when its defense forces assassinated Ahmed Jabari, the Hamas military chief of staff. According to Yosef Kuperwasser, the director of Israel’s Ministry of Strategic Affairs, in a Reuters article, more than 800 rockets had been fired into Israel since the middle of October.

When someone attacks another, the victim has a right to defend against those attacks. A government has an obligation to protect its people, and that necessitated retaliation.

Could the Israeli government have taken other options? Probably, but the other options would have consisted of risking Israeli soldiers in an equally unpopular assassination or sitting around and continuing to take the abuse.

No country would choose the latter, especially when ignoring such attacks only enables the behavior in the first place — as the 800 rockets can attest to.

What’s truly sad, though, is that there is probably no solution that doesn’t involve violence.

Fundamentally, many countries don’t want Israel to exist because it’s a Jewish state that conflicts with their Muslim beliefs or they dislike Israel because its creation displaced tens of thousands of Palestinians.

While religion is often used by people as a justification for violence (the Crusades, the Inquisition, etc.), the true problem is more about resources. Jews want the land to have a safe place for a people that were decimated during the Holocaust and the pogroms in Russia decades before that.

Arabs want the land because they were there before, and for a long time too. After having what they saw was rightfully theirs taken away, they wanted the entirety of Palestine back.

And how do countries settle land disputes? Well, they fight over it until someone loses.

So while it isn’t OK for Israel to infringe upon the basic human rights everyone has, it isn’t doing that. It’s merely defending itself like any country under attack would do and has done nearly any time two groups fought over land.

In the meantime, the best thing anyone can hope for is that the two groups agree to a ceasefire so that no more civilian lives have to be lost.

Your views In response to “Women reclaim ‘slut’ with walk that strives for gender equality” (by Sarah-Jayne Simon, Nov. 19): Reclaim the word ‘slut’? “[Slut] is such a pervasive word.”

These statements are a bit confusing to me. Slut is a pejorative term. I don’t understand what Olukemi Oso means when she says it’s a pervasive word. From my point of view, why would a anyone try to embrace or “reclaim” a demeaning word?

Regardless, the only thing I agree with is that victims of sexual assault should in no way be blamed for what happened to them.

Bryant said ASA members will attend to have a student presence there.”

Well, this impartially represents the sentiments of the general student body and not just the special interests of the group whose source of funding is in question. I wonder how well these students will be represented.

“University students are divided regarding what should be done with the fee. Some of the options proposed in past meetings have been to eliminate the fee altogether, or to create an opt-in for those students interested in supporting the organization.”

prevented from celebrating the holiday.

Workers aren’t taking the news of earlier openings too well.

According to an ABC News report, Walmart employees at 1,000 stores around the country are preparing to strike on Thursday, only the second strike in the retailer’s history.

Rightfully so. How Walmart chooses to respond as Thursday approaches will become more apparent in the next two days.

The issue becomes more apparent the more retailers encroach on their employees’ holidays, and even shoppers are noticing.

“I feel bad for all those workers who have to go into work on Thanksgiving Day for these extremely greedy companies who don’t even pay them well,” a friend posted on Facebook last week. “I can understand places needing to be open like hospitals, airports, etc., but these retail stores are insane. … Just for this, I am not going to go give my money to any of them. It’s just not worth it.”

If only more shoppers could think that way. But most will probably line up like mad hounds, giving up their holiday, and not giving a first thought to the workers who had no choice but to give up theirs.

This may answer that question.

“ASA directors and board members plan to meet with regent members to answer any questions regarding finances or the organization and “explain the importance of ASA and having a collective student voice,” King said.

“It’s really hard to tell what’s going to happen,” he added. “That’s kind of the point of meeting with regents, getting the student voice to the regents so they understand why ASA is important and getting students who aren’t directors to contact regents and share their one thing to keep ASA on campus and keep the fee going.”

This is interesting, apparently the ASA doesn’t actually need the $2 fee to survive: “Whether the regents decide to remove the fee, King said the organization would have a plan in place to keep ASA running.

“Hypothetically, if the regents decided to pull our fee in general, that obviously would be incredibly harmful to our organization,” King added, “But we will have enough time with the money we have in our reserves to operate as an organization and find ways to be funded.”

“The more transparent the better, because concerns I’ve been getting from students and others around is the lack of knowledge over where the money is going,” King said.”

Yeah that would be a good concern to address. It might even be more of an expectation than a concern. Maybe it would make the ASUA think twice before spending the money on things like this.

“At the end of the day, we’re all working toward the same goal,” King said. “If the students are pitted against each other then we’re not accomplishing anything.”

Maybe the issue is not that you aren’t accomplishing anything because students are pitted against one another, but rather, they are pitted against the ASUA because it doesn’t really accomplish anything.

Police Beat MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat

Steve, where art thou?

A non-UA-affiliated man was arrested at 10 a.m. on Nov. 11 on campus for outstanding warrants from Tucson Police Department, stemming from charges of disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing.

The man was spotted on the south side of the GouldSimpson building wearing a black hoodie and jeans riding a mountain bike. Upon first seeing the University of Arizona Police Department’s patrol car, he sped away.

He was seen 10 minutes later near the Navajo-Pinal Residence Hall bike racks, before riding away to the other side of the residence hall. A UAPD officer stopped the man and questioned him at Sixth Street and Cherry Avenue.

As the officer spoke to the man, he denied looking at bikes and said he was simply riding around campus. When asked if the bike he was riding was his, the man replied “No. I borrowed it from a friend.” The officer asked for his friend’s name, which he said was “Steve.” The suspect was unable to provide a last name, phone number or address for “Steve.”

Two more UAPD officers then arrived, while a records check was administered revealing the man’s TPD arrest warrants. As officers placed him under arrest and searched his bag, they found a power-cutting tool and two wire cable cutters. The man said he’d found the power tool in a dumpster and said the cable cutters weren’t his. They were then confiscated.

Additionally, a Blackberry cellphone was located on his person, which he said was his girlfriend’s but was unable to provide any information to contact her. The phone, along with his backpack, was placed into safekeeping. The man was taken to Pima County Jail.

Requiem for an elevator

Four spoons melted into the carpet of a Coconino Residence Hall elevator were found at 8:14 a.m. on Nov. 14, leading UAPD to look into the incident further.

When an officer arrived, the student and community director who reported the incident led the officer to the elevator, explaining that he never smelled any smoke coming from the elevator, but that the incident must have occurred overnight.

The student said this was the first incident the dorm had experienced with damage involving fire, and there are no cameras recording security footage. The officer took photos of the scene. There are currently no suspects.

Underage student acts rash at stash bash

Two UA students, caught screaming at each other from the doorway of their Coronado Residence Hall dorm room, were cited and released on charges of minor in possession at 12:30 a.m. on Nov. 11 following an argument with UAPD officers over the charges.

When UAPD officers arrived, one of the students was screaming at the other from the doorway of a room, holding a box of empty Keystone Light cans. When an officer approached the shouting man, he refused to show identification or allow the officer in his room.

The man said he was 19, and after an officer said he was investigating a crime and needed to see identification, the man tried to push him. He was then handcuffed and sat down in the hallway, while his roommate retrieved a Wisconsin driver’s license for him, in addition to his own Arizona driver’s license.

The roommate said the two had just returned back to the room and had nothing to do with the alcohol. The officer then asked him to collect and empty all the bottles in the room. In addition to the empty Keystone Lights, the student provided several handles, beer bottles and cans, all of differing amounts.

The roommate said that he and the first man had drank the assortment of alcohol over several weeks. The two were then cited and released for charges of minor in possession.

Campus Events Financial Aid Candy Sale to Support UA Cares Need to soothe a sweet tooth? Stop through the lobby of the Administration building or Bear Down Gymnasium between now and the end of the month and pick up some candy for $1. It’s one of a series of fundraisers the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid is hosting to benefit the Arizona Assurance Scholars Program as part of UA Cares. Every week day until Friday, Nov 30.

Financial Aid ‘I Dare You’ Nomination Jars in Support of UA Cares This is one of a series of fundraisers the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid is hosting to raise money for the Arizona Assurance Scholars Program in support of UA Cares. The “I Dare You” Nominations consist of nominating a colleague to do something you would like to see them do. At the end of the competition, the winning dares (ones that earn the most money) will be performed. For example, let’s say John does not like to wear T-shirts with the ASU logo, but Leah would like to see John in a T-shirt that has the ASU logo, so Leah visits the OSFA and puts any amount of money she wants into a jar with John’s “dare” written on the side of it. If John’s jar has the most money at the end of the nomination period, John will have to wear the ASU T-shirt. Any donation will be accepted. But remember, if you really want to see a specific dare performed (or want to avoid doing a dare), the jars with the most money will win. There’s a first, second and third place. Administration, inside the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid (ask at the counter where to go. Repeats every weekday until Nov 30.

‘Exploring Sky Islands’ Exhibit at Flandrau Science Center Don’t miss Flandrau’s new exhibit, “Exploring Sky Islands.” It’s full of fun, hands-on activities that will take you from our desert basins to the pine forests on top of Arizona’s Sky Island mountains. Here in Southern Arizona, we live in one of the most unique environments in the world. We’re famous for the natural beauty of our landscape, a place where desert basins are framed by majestic mountains. We call those mountains Sky Islands. Together, the mountains and the basins host an astonishing multitude of plants, birds and animals because the cooler, wetter climates at higher elevations provide different habitats where different species flourish.

All those habitats combine to make our Sky Islands the most biodiverse region in the United States. “Exploring Sky Islands” will guide you to discover the geology, biology and ecology of our region through interactive exhibits.

The rocks, the water, the life and even fire all play a role in our amazing Sky Islands. And all that science makes “Exploring Sky Islands” a fascinating exhibit for

Q

Does drinking make depression worse?

A . depression and alcohol but there’s often the question of Yes, it can. Research informs us there is a link between

which came first. Does one drink to feel better or does one become depressed with excessive drinking? A number of studies have shown that alcohol abuse increases the risk for depression. This connection may be because of the effects of heavy alcohol exposure to the brain. We’ve all had friends who tried to drink away the hurt of a breakup only to have nights of excessive drinking make it worse. While it’s tempting to self-medicate with alcohol, the data suggests it’s not a useful strategy or long-term solution. Using alcohol regularly to deal with your problems can have the opposite effect and lead to feeling worse or more depression.

So, what’s one to do? When you’re feeling depressed it’s hard to want to do anything at all. If you’re finding you have little interest or pleasure in doing things you used to enjoy or feeling hopeless more often than not, then it’s time to get that check-up you’ve been putting off (start with a self-assessment at www.mentalhealthscreening.org). You’ll also have to ask yourself a tough question; is it worth it to cut back on drinking in order to feel better?

If that doesn’t work, stop by Counseling and Psych Services (CAPS) on the 3rd floor of the Campus Health Service to get a confidential consult with a counselor to help you sort things out. In the meantime, here are some helpful hints to feel better:

Brewster Rockit

• Exercise at Campus Rec – physical activity can lift your mood • Socialize, don’t isolate yourself • Have a heart-to-heart with a parent, good friend, trusted adult • Find ways to have fun without alcohol or other drugs You don’t have to do it alone. CAPS is just a phone call away.

91% of UA students indicated that if they were to encounter a friend at UA with emotional problems, they would be comfortable listening to their problems. (2012 Health & Wellness Survey, n=2,406)

SENIOR FORWARD CHESHI POSTON is tied with Erica Barnes as the Wildcats’ leading rebounder, with seven per game.

The Arizona women’s basketball team will host BYU at the McKale Center today at 11 a.m. for the annual “field trip game” that brings elementary school students from the Tucson area in for the early game.

The Cougars are coming off a successful 2011-12 season in which they finished with a record of 26-7 and earned a 10th seed in the NCAA tournament.

This season, BYU was picked to win the West Coast Conference and has four all-conference players on its roster. However, the Cougars have lost their previous two games and enter Tuesday’s game with a 2-2 record.

BYU returns 10 letterwinners from its 2011-12 squad, including sophomore Lexi Eaton and junior Kim Parker

Beeston, both of whom are averaging double figures in points this season.

So far this season, the Wildcats have posted a perfect record of 3-0. But last season BYU handed Arizona its first loss with an 82-73 victory in the Hukilau Invitational.

In that matchup, Davellyn Whyte led the team with 19 points, but the Wildcats also committed 21 turnovers.

The Wildcats are led by Whyte once again this season. Through three games, she leads Arizona in points and assists.

Along with Whyte, the Wildcats have gotten production on the boards from junior and senior forwards Erica Barnes and Cheshi Poston, who both are averaging just over seven rebounds a game.

Tuesday will be the Wildcats’ final game before they head to the Bahamas and play in the Junkanoo Jam during the holiday weekend.

Football Notes

Carey nears lofty records, ASU game to be ‘Red Out’ CAMERON MOON Arizona Daily Wildcat

Sophomore running back Ka’Deem Carey set a goal before the season started, and now he’s inching closer to accomplishing it.

After rushing for more than 500 yards and seven touchdowns in Arizona’s last two games, Carey launched himself into a more prominent national spotlight, as he now leads the nation in rushing and rushing yards per game, with 1,585 and 144, respectively.

“In the beginning of the year, you always set high goals,” Carey said. “To set that and accomplish it, it feels good.”

Carey already broke the school record for rushing yards in a game, tied the record for touchdowns in a game, and broke the conference single-game rushing record against Colorado.

Now he has his sights set on the UA single-season rushing record and the most touchdowns in a single season. Carey is only 17 yards from passing Trung Canidate as the school’s single season rush leader, and only two touchdowns from being tied with Art Luppino’s touchdown record of 21, set in 1954.

“The rushing record [is more important],” Carey said. “I think it’s more work. You have to grind for each yard.”

Carey exploded for 366 yards against Colorado, thanks to some help from running backs coach Calvin Magee.

Magee sat down with the running backs and instructed them on the cutback lanes that would be available as soon as they hit the hole, and head coach Rich Rodriguez complimented Carey on his improved vision after the meeting.

“It’s just repetition,” running back Daniel Jenkins said.

“Coach Magee does a great job explaining where the holes will be. I think that’s why we’re having success.”

Aside from wearing copper helmets against Oregon State earlier this season, the only other colored helmets the Wildcats have worn in the last two decades have been blue and white.

Each of the last two times new helmets were introduced for Arizona, it lost. Against Nebraska in the 2009 Holiday Bowl, the Wildcats lost 33-0 in their first game with white helmets in years.

Against Oregon State, Arizona lost 38-35 debuting copper helmets, which were used to pay tribute to the state’s copper mining history.

“I love them,” Carey said of wearing the red helmets. “I think it’s great we get to wear them against ASU.”

Meaning of ASU rivalry not lost on focused team

Rodriguez spent offseason practices trying to get the Wildcats in shape, installing his system and figuring out who on the team was going to play a contributing role in his first season as head coach.

He also spent a little extra time on preparations for ASU, despite the game’s placement on the schedule.

“It’s important to your guys, the coaches and the fans,” Rodriguez said. “There’s a little more offseason work on the rivalry than other games on the schedule. Being in the rivalry makes it personal.

“I’ve been training in case they allow me to play,” Rodriguez joked.

Rodriguez has already set a personal record by recording seven wins in his first season, but a win over ASU would give the Arizona seniors their first home win over the Sun Devils.

“Last year, playing for the seniors there, the looks on their faces were unforgettable,” Carey said of Arizona’s victory in Tempe last season. “It’s a big game.
