By Lucy Valencia ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT UAPD recognizes the help of the community when it comes to stopping crime. The University of Arizona Police Department has 57 police officers serving a population of 50,000 UA community members on a single given day, according to Sgt. Juan Alvarez. “We just can’t be everywhere at once,” he said. Often times, community members help solve a case by giving UAPD leads or turning

in a suspect. To show their appreciation, UAPD held an awards ceremony at their main station on Wednesday. The ceremony began at 11:30 a.m., and Alvarez opened by introducing Chief Anthony Daykin and subsequently honored six community members who have helped law enforcement. “It’s something we’ve done in the past sporadically, but now we want to start doing it at least twice a year,” Alvarez said. “It’s important to recognize these people.” Alvarez also said he feels recog-
nition is one of the main motivators for community members to help out law enforcement. Daykin presented the six individuals with a coin and certificate. “These people give tips, provide details of suspects, and willingly help out,” Alvarez said. The first to be recognized was Bethany Anderson, who was working in her office on campus when she witnessed a man trying to steal a bicycle. “We see that there’s a bit of a bicycle UAPD, page 8

Hunger Banquet illustrates poverty, classism By Bethany Barnes ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
Students with grumbling stomachs lined up outside of Pima Residence Hall on Wednesday night to learn their fate at the 16th annual Hunger Banquet . The students had fasted for 30 hours to simulate world poverty and hunger, but the simulation didn’t end when the fast did. As students walked through the doors, they received a paper deter-
mining whether they would be high class, middle class or low class. The higher-class students made up 15 percent of the group and were seated at two tables with white table cloths. Students in the high class dined on marinara pasta, bread, salad, coffee and iced tea. Middle-class students made up 30 percent of the group. These students did not have the luxury of a table and sat on folding chairs drinking ice water and eating rice and black beans on
plates with plastic forks. The remaining students sat on the floor and were given rice in cups and had to eat with their hands and were able to get room temperature water. Emily Spirk , a sophomore studying vocal performance and French, said seeing the visual breakdown of poverty was “very jarring.” “I was kind of disappointed when I got my slip,” said pre-public health sophomore Stephanie Cole . “It really simulates how something can be
taken away from you.” The paper also had a name, story of the person’s daily life and the country they live in. “We’re trying to put a more human element on it by giving people names,” said Hannah Lozon , coordinator of social justice education at Residence Life. Cole said having the name helped make the experience more personal. “It puts a name and almost a HUNGER, page 3
LGBTQ wing in dorm supported By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
ASUA voiced support of gender-inclusive housing on Wednesday night. The Associated Students of the University of Arizona Senate approved Sen. Scott Rising’s resolution in favor of a pilot program to add a proposed 25 spots in gender-inclusive housing as well as a LGBTQ-themed wing at its 5 p.m. weekly meeting in the
Student Union Memorial Center. “This is an issue that is not just a housing issue. This is an issue that I think is really a campus-wide issue,” said Jim Van Arsdel, director of UA Residence Life, “and the thoughtful consideration of a group like this is really important in that whole process.” “Really nothing has to change besides the occupants of the room,” Rising said at the Oct. 20 forum on gender-inclusive housing, where a 30-person group

unanimously supported the idea of gender-inclusive housing, akin to other living-learning communities in UA Residence Life. Gender-inclusive housing would include both biological sex and the gender with which people identify. “Part of the issue is that our current residence hall system is based on a binary gender system that only recognizes male and female,” said Jennifer Hoefle, program director of LGBTQ Affairs. “But bodies and identities don’t only fall into those

two categories.” Hoefle felt that those outside of the binary “are rendered invisible, or are not served, or are forced to live alone or there’s not a place for them to live off campus.” Heterosexual men and women who are allies could also live in the wing, and could live together in the same room.

A 1959 UA alumna returns to campus to give a lecture on her photography tonight at 5:30. “I have had work shown at the center before and they actually own a couple of my original pieces,” said Barbara Kasten , the artist. Cass Fey, Curator of Education at Center for Creative Photography, selected Kasten as the artist to be featured in a lecture version of the exhibition. “The Center for Creative Photography is an important international research center and museum,” she said. “Artists like to visit, come to look at the work here and to be a part of the program … and Kasten is a widely known artist in the world photography, so we wanted her to come to the program.” Kasten received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1959 from the UA. “She studied painting and sculpture through the UA, so she’s alumna. I invited her for this and many more reasons, ARTIST, page 8

pre-business and marketing sophomore What is your position at ASUA, and what do you do? I am an ASUA senator, recently elected last year. What I’m doing right now are the FAFSA workshops. They are going to start Nov. 9, the first session will be from 5 to 6 p.m. and the second from 6:30 to 7:30 in Bio West Room 219. What are FAFSA workshops? What will I be learning if I went to one of those? You would learn how to fill out your FAFSA form out, there is going to be faculty walking around to help those who don’t know how to fill their FAFSA out, and also we are going to learn about a new program called Scholarship Universe, which tells you what scholarships and financial aid you’ll be able to qualify for next year. What’s the point of going to the workshop if I think I already filled out my FAFSA? It’d be great if you came just to learn a little bit more about financial aid and the new scholarship program which just launched Nov. 1. It’ll teach you how to use Scholarship Universe, it’s a great program for students who don’t think they are able to qualify for aid but it shows you if you’re able to, and what scholarships you could get. Are you guys doing this because of the tuition increases, is that what jump started these workshops? Yeah, last year when the Board of Regents increased the tuition and that is basically what started the financial aid workshops. Last year the student body president and one of the directors from Arizona Students Association started these workshops, so I’m just continuing on from last year. What is it about student government that made you want to do this in college? I’ve just always loved student government. I’ve done it since I was, like, in kindergarten and I love it so I continued it in college. In kindergarten what were some of your duties? Passing out snacks, line leader elections? Me and my friend Tierney actually made a petition because we didn’t like the lunch food. So we had all of our classmates sign the petition and actually had a meeting with the director of Kyrene Food Services. Were you guys successful? We actually ended up getting, like, Skittles every Friday or something. How do you feel about the rules of the healthy vending machine snacks? Did you guys petition that in middle school, too, or … ? No, I actually was one of the people that probably bought in to the healthy snacks. — Caroline Nachazel

Fighting the USDA one spud at a time
How far are you willing to go to fight for the potato? If you are like most people, the answer is probably, “Not very far,” or “What?” Chris Voigt is not most people. He is now halfway through a pledge to eat nothing but potatoes for 60 days — 20 potatoes a day, he’s calculated, in order to maintain his body weight. But Voigt isn’t some average tuber-crazed YouTube citizen looking for 15 minutes of fame. He’s the executive director of the Washington State Potato Commission, and he’s
undertaking this stunt diet to protest the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s recent decision to remove white potatoes from a list of subsidized foods for low-income citizens. The average American consumes about 126 pounds of potatoes a year, mostly from french fries and potato chips. The USDA says it removed white potatoes from WIC (Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children) for an interim period on the advice of the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine, which said that
most Americans are already eating at least their daily allowance of the vegetables Voigt argues that there is a world of potato beyond its most common junk food manifestations, and that spuds themselves are actually very healthy, with no fat and a range of micronutrients. But not surprisingly, he quickly began to regret his decision to eat nothing but plain potatoes, yearning for just a little bit of the butter that can make a batch of mashed potatoes really sing. — AOL News

Sometimes you just need to hear what’s missing in order to transform challenges with respect and compassion. Aries (March 21 - April 19) — Today is a 7 — You could easily obsess over a partner’s injury or illness. It’s okay to show concern and even better if you understand the treatment or meds completely.

Gemini (May 21 - June 21) — Today is a 6 — An older person obsesses over creative details that don’t quite come together. Don’t force the pieces to fit together or you might break them.

‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ repeal is a likely election casualty MCCLATCHY NEWSPAPERS WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s call on Congress to repeal “don’t ask, don’t tell” is likely to founder after key House members were defeated in Tuesday’s elections. The House, which will be led by the GOP in January, is likely instead to push for an increase in the Defense Department’s $708 billion budget and may take actions to keep the military prison at Guantanamo Bay open and to call for a shift in Afghanistan strategy, newly empowered Republicans and political observers said. Among the losers in the House of Representatives were at least 10 Democrats on the Armed Services Committee, including Chairman Ike Skelton of Missouri. Two-term Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Pa., an Iraq war veteran who added an amendment to the defense appropriations bill that would have repealed “don’t ask, don’t tell,” also lost. Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, R-Calif., 72, a nine-term veteran, is expected to replace Skelton as committee chairman. Wednesday, McKeon called for leaving military spending largely intact. Previously, he said he favored leaving “don’t

ask, don’t tell” on the books. Congress could vote to repeal “don’t ask, don’t tell” during its lame-duck session, which begins on Nov. 15. But a Pentagon study on the impact of the repeal, which would allow gays and lesbians to serve openly, won’t be completed until Dec. 1 and many top military commanders are against repealing the ban. “It’s hard to think of a Democrat who wants to risk the wrath even though people support” repealing the ban, said Lawrence Korb, a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, a liberal research group. Once the new Congress convenes in January, few expect the Republican House leadership to press the issue. With the defeat of Murphy, there’s also no one with the credibility to offer up a repeal effort, Korb said. “I don’t think there is anyone else,” Korb said. A Republican-led House is also likely to clash with the Obama administration on other defense issues. McKeon has been openly critical of the administration’s proposed 1 percent increase in the Pentagon budget, calling it “a Defense Department in decline.” In a speech at the conservative Heritage Foundation earlier this year, McKeon called a proposed
decrease in weapons acquisition money “a sizeable and unacceptable decrease.” “One percent real growth over the next five years is a net cut for investment and procurement accounts,” he said. “Pressures on the defense budget ... warrant a higher top line.” McKeon promised Wednesday to sustain the defense budget and said he intended tougher questioning of the administration’s Afghanistan and terrorism policies. “We must place a renewed emphasis on oversight,” he said. “Our efforts will be relevant and directly tied to the front-line war fighter in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the protection of the U.S. homeland.” The Senate refused to take up the defense spending bill for fiscal year 2011, which began on Oct. 1, over Murphy’s amendment to repeal “don’t ask, don’t tell.” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who survived a bruising reelection campaign, said Wednesday that he hopes to bring the legislation up for a vote during the lameduck session. However, he warned that such bills take a lot of time and that it may not be ready before the new Congress convenes next year.

face in my mind, and it shows how much it wasn’t a choice,” Cole said. The banquet was hosted by Advocates Coming Together, a Residence Life social justice group that formed a year and half ago. “It’s a really good opportunity for people to become aware and get involved in ending poverty,” said psychology freshman Caroline Shanholtz. The Hunger Banquet is organized by Oxfam , which helps give students a script and materials to put on the event. Oxfam
has been doing these events since the 1980s, according to Lozon. To emphasize that hunger is not a choice, Advocates Coming Together rearranged students before the meal was served. Some students were told they had lost their jobs and would have to move to lower class, while other were told they had found work and could move to middle class. Students were not required to fast for 30 hours to attend the banquet and Advocates Coming Together collected
donations for the Tucson Community Food Bank, encouraging students to donate the money they would have normally spent on food. They also collected canned donations. Lauren Morast , biomedical engineering freshman, said she was “very hungry to be honest” and that she tried to stay out of her dorm because she had just been grocery shopping. “It makes me feel really privileged to have copious amounts of food in my dorm,” Morast said.

SB 1070 hearing emphasizes legitimacy of law
Alexandra Bortnik Arizona Daily Wildcat
“
The enactment of S.B. 1070 triggered protests across Arizona and received criticism from officials as high up as President Barack Obama. While critics claim this act will cause racial profiling and even tempt harassment of Hispanics, regardless of their legal status as American citizens, the act only requests one thing: for immigrants to carry documentation. On Monday, federal appellate judges held discussions that suggested they could allow Arizona to enact a highly controversial section of S.B. 1070. This tender section of the bill states that police officers can determine if someone they stop is in this country illegally. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Carlos Bea questioned if that section alone was unconstitutional. U.S. Deputy Solicitor General Edwin Kneedler, who is representing the federal government in the hearing, responded that “‘our position is not that they’re not authorized to check with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. … ‘Our objection is that the state statute mandates it,’” according to the Arizona Daily Star. While this may appear as a minutia,
Other countries, such as France and Russia, require not only immigrants, but visitors as well, to always carry their documentation, or risk serving time in a foreign prison. Why should America treat its immigrants any differently?
MAILBAG An open letter to the UA’s Democratic voters
I’d like to preface this letter by thanking each and every person who voted, regardless of who for or how you voted. You are all extremely important to the democratic process, even if I may disagree with most of you on a lot of issues. Now that the pleasantries are out of the way, I can commence with the victory speech. To those students who vandalized my dorm room door after the 2008 election, know this: I know who you are and I choose not to return the favor. I will be the better man and this letter will be the only revenge I take. I’m better than you. To Democratic voters in general, thank you for electing the one man who

the probability of police officers either facing resistance or refusal by those who are stopped is more likely if the state statute doesn’t mandate it. Other countries, such as France and Russia, require not only immigrants, but visitors as well, to always carry their documentation, or risk serving time in a foreign prison. Why should America treat its immigrants any differently? And why is there such uproar about S.B. 1070 when other countries have been operating this way for years? Perhaps the issue lies in the fact that America has created an image of being a country where anything goes. While being the land of opportunity defines America’s character and has served many immigrants well as a place to rebuild, today this attitude brings a threat not only to the safety of its citizens, but to its national identity. If a country welcomes anyone who steps into it without requiring a form of initiation or assimilation, the country will lose its sense of identity and value all together. Although the bill may invite the harassment of some American citizens, one could compare that to the unpleasant airport security all Americans endure for the safety of this country. S.B. 1070 is a dramatic move that sits uneasily with many Americans. Maybe it’s because enacting this bill was an anomaly — it made no sense with the character of America. America was never understood as a country that would exclude. It’s important to note, however, that Arizona is not excluding or putting further limits on how many immigrants can enter the country with measures like S.B. 1070; it is simply attempting to give its citizens, and those who immigrated legally, a sense of order and safety. The policy hasn’t shut the door to America — it simply requests a knock before entering. — Alexandra Bortnik is a creative writing junior. She can be reached at letters@wildcat.arizona.edu.

We will not be going away soon and we will work hard to increase our gains in two years’ time. America has acknowledged the mistakes that the Democrats made and they won’t make the mistake of putting them back in power so soon. I am a proud conservative Republican.

Texters, ou might think sending a quick text to your bestie, your girlfriend or your classmate is a harmless act. But, as is the case with most things, I have to disagree. It isn’t that I mind texting; I myself send at least 100 messages a day. The problem arises when I receive something in my inbox that goes against common etiquette or that looks like this: “C U L8R!” A good rule of thumb to follow is if you are not willing to say it in person, you shouldn’t send it via text. The obvious interpretation of this is that you shouldn’t get ballsy via texting just because you are not face-toface with someone, which is true. The only exception to this is a booty call, because it would be extremely awkward to initiate in person or via telephone. The other, more pressing, interpretation of this rule, though, is if you’re not interested in sounding like an idiot when you talk or write to someone — by saying things like “kk” instead of “OK” or turning in papers that say “U” instead of “you” — then you shouldn’t text like one either. What are you accomplishing by using weird abbreviations? The answer: nothing. How much time are you saving by using “2moro” instead of “tomorrow?” The answer: not enough. Your chances of being taken seriously are goingtodiminishifyou’rethepersonwhothinks it is hip to alternate uppercase and lowercase letters. I kNoW tHiS uSeD tO bE rEaLlY cOoL iN mIdDlE sChOoL bUt We’Re iN cOlLeGe nOw So LeT’s PuT tHiS tO rEsT. Along the same lines is the excessive punctuation……….. you’re so mysterious………. Or really excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who has that much time to send texts like this? Not this girl, and frankly,
not anyone with a life. Even though we live in the digital age, it is important to remember that your cell phone not only sends texts but also functions as a telephone. Please remember this the next time you go to send a text message so long it belongs in the “Guinness Book of World Records.” Nobody likes receiving a four-part text with missing words. It’s annoying as hell trying to decipher what the sender was trying to say. Anything longer than two messages should be a phone call or email, not a text. A phone call should also trump a text when you are responding to someone’s call. If you miss a call, you look like an a-hole if you immediately respond with the text, “Hey I saw you called. What’s up?” Unless you’re in class or at work, then you are expected to call back. Another a-hole move that is plain rude is the delayed response. For example, if you text me and I quickly text you back, you cannot wait an hour to respond to what I just sent. It is obvious that your phone was just in your hand; it did not grow a pair of legs and walk away. You just decided that you were above texting me back, which is odd because I didn’t initiate the conversation. Few things are worse than talking shit about somebody in a text and then accidentally sending it to that person. What usually happens is you type an entire message talking about someone and since that person is on your brain you naturally enter it as the receiver. To avoid this, don’t start talking shit until you have entered the text recipient. If, however, you do mistakenly send the message to the wrong person, there
are two choices. You can either A) tell them that you sent it to the wrong person, which isn’t going to get you out of any trouble; or B) tell them you just got that text from somebody else and you thought you should share it. Option B will alleviate all awkwardness and make you look like such a good friend. The seemingly innocent inquiry of “What are you doing?” is rarely a good start to a texting conversation. I can think of two instances in which it leads to an upsetting outcome. The first situation goes like this: You’re sitting around doing nothing when you get a text asking about your plans for the evening. You get your hopes up, thinking that your night has taken a turn for the better and now you’re going to have plans. Wrong. The response that always comes after hearing about your open night is an, “Oh, OK. Cool.” Why would you even ask about what I am doing if you didn’t have any interest in doing something with me? You’re such a tease. The second situation is even worse — someone asks what your plans are for the day, and because you don’t want to actually type your whole agenda, you respond with, “Not much.” Worst mistake ever. Now, the inquirer has the opportunity to ask any favor, short of donating your kidney, and you have to agree because you already established that you’re not busy. The moral of the story is that there is a text etiquette that should be upheld. Text like you would speak, and don’t throw out the grammar. — Mallory Hawkins is a communication senior.

policebeat By Lucy Valencia Arizona Daily Wildcat
“I’m not going to lie to you, all this stuff is mine”
A University of Arizona Police Department officer went to a student’s room in Villa Del Puente Residence Hall on Monday after a resident assistant reported the smell of marijuana coming from his room. Upon arriving, the officer knocked on the student’s door and also noticed the smell of marijuana coming from nearby. A man answered the door, and invited the officer inside. He pointed at his desk and told the officer, “I’m not going to lie to you, all this stuff is mine.” The officer then asked what stuff he was talking about, and the man pointed to a rolled cigarette and said, “that joint, pipe and grinder.” The man went on to tell the officer that he was mixing marijuana with tobacco. He said he bought the marijuana in Phoenix for $20 a gram and was about to leave campus to smoke a “spuff,” which is a mixture of tobacco and marijuana, according to police records. The man stated that his roommate and friend had nothing to do with the marijuana and paraphernalia, which was confirmed when the officer spoke to them individually. A wooden case with a metal pipe, rolling papers, a green marijuana grinder and 1.2 grams of marijuana mixed with tobacco were confiscated. The man was arrested for unlawful possession of marijuana and unlawful possession of narcotic paraphernalia. He was also referred to the Dean of Students Office.
A found bicycle?
A UAPD officer came across an unsecured bicycle in the bike racks near Villa Del Puente on Monday. It was a metallic copper La Jolla street cruiser with a deflated front tire, which was also off the rim. The serial number of the bike was listed, and it had a Parking and Transportation Services tag. PTS was contacted and one of their employees met with a UAPD officer to take possession of the bicycle. The bicycle had not been reported stolen.
Trespassing at Rec Center
At 9:51 a.m. on Monday, a UAPD officer went to the Student Recreation Center after staff reported that a man had been in the women’s locker room. The employee said he followed the man into the men’s locker room after the incident, and that he was still there. The employee told the man to leave, but he became aggressive and replied, “You don’t want to piss me off!” The employee then called the police. While he provided details of the suspect’s clothing, the man took off his sweatshirt and T-shirt. The suspect proceeded to the men’s locker room while the employee waited outside for the police. The employee also said the suspect slapped a woman on the buttocks and she left hurriedly and distraught. The officer went into the men’s locker room, searched it and finally found the suspect in the showers. He was the only person there. The officer announced loudly “police!” and directed the man to exit the shower. The suspect feigned deafness, pointing to his ear as if he couldn’t hear the officer. The man refused to speak, so the officer motioned for him to follow him out. He told the man he already knew that he could speak, because he had spoken to the manager earlier. The suspect then began answering the officer’s questions, but refused to acknowledge him unless direct eye contact was made. When the suspect hid his face and eyes in his towel, the officer asked if he was a lip reader. The man removed his face from his towel and said, “yes.” The officer then asked the man to get dressed and placed him into double-locked handcuffs. Another UAPD officer spoke to an employee at the Rec Center, who identified the man as the one who entered the women’s locker room. Another employee, who was working at the front desk, said that when the suspect entered he passed the front desk without providing identification. He simply said, “I’m with construction.” The employee was unable to contact him because he proceeded so quickly. The officer then spoke to another UA employee who said an unidentified woman came to her at about 9:40 a.m. and said that a man had “slapped her on the butt,” and then slammed her locker shut before he ran out of the woman’s locker room. Although the suspect had no prior history with the UA, he has been flagged by Tucson Police Department before as being mentally unstable. He had a previous incident for standing in the middle of the road and yelling obscenities at passing cars, as well as for providing a false name. The suspect was arrested for criminal trespassing and issued a six-month exclusionary order. The officer transported the suspect to Pima County Jail Adult Detention Facility, where he was booked.

Icecats remain cheerful Hockey set for home opener at TCC By Daniel Gaona Arizona Daily Wildcat
Alan Walsh/Arizona Daily Wildcat
Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck, 12, picked the Arizona defense apart last season, throwing for 423 yards in the Cardinal’s 43-38 loss. Despite losing All-American running back Toby Gerhart, the Cardinal offense has maintained its offensive prowess, putting pressure on the Wildcats’ No. 10 ranked defense.
Stanford’s Luck, power run game pose giant challenge By Tim Kosch Arizona Daily Wildcat If the Pacific 10 Conference is the land of quarterbacks, Stanford is the capital. There’s no other way to put it: Andrew Luck is great, to the point where his head coach calls him perfect and openly admits he loves him as much as his own wife. But while head coach Jim Harbaugh is on an endless honeymoon with a man wearing the No. 12 jersey, opposing teams seem to find their Saturday evenings ending with a handshake goodbye and a fake phone number. “They’ve got the right guy as
the triggerman, he is a talented guy,” Arizona co-defensive coordinator Greg Brown said of Luck. “The guy can throw, he’s got accuracy, he’s got RPM’s on the ball and then when there’s trouble the guy can escape with his feet.” Luck’s numbers are astounding – 1,920 yards and 20 touchdowns – but what has terrorized defenses and drawn affection from NFL scouts is his understanding of the game and his accuracy. Even when a receiver is perfectly covered, Luck will put it directly in the one spot where the defender can’t catch it. “We just have to go out there and compete,” cornerback Robert
Golden said. “It’s going to be a long night out there and we have to go out and play hard and contest every ball that’s in the air. (Luck) has a lot of ability to go out there and hurt a defense in many ways.” In last year’s 43-38 win at Arizona Stadium, the Wildcats isolated then-running back Toby Gerhart as the key to the game and committed to stop the run. Despite Gerhart being held to one of his lowest season totals, Luck dismantled the defense with 423 yards through the air. Should Arizona decide to take away Stanford’s power running game away again, it’s safe to assume
Luck will put up big numbers. But if it drops back to defend the pass, Stanford’s average of 223.8 rushing yards per game will surely be off to the races. Needless to say, even the nation’s No. 10 total defense will have a hard time stopping such a well-balanced attack. “They are really, really good,” Brown said. “They have such good schematics and they are going to challenge you to the Nth degree. Harbaugh knows exactly what he’s doing on offense, they’re going to get the most out of their personnel and they present huge challenges both in the passing game and the running game.”
The magic touch
HOCKEY, page 10
QB coach Frank Scelfo pushes right buttons with Foles, Scott By Mike Schmitz Arizona Daily Wildcat Arizona head coach Mike Stoops sat in his office in early February preparing to conduct one final interview before naming a quarterbacks coach. Sonny Dykes left the position vacant as he opted for a head coaching job at Louisiana Tech on Jan. 20, and finding a football mind of his caliber seemed far-fetched. But, when Frank Scelfo walked into Stoops’ office, everything changed. “I was ready to hire somebody else and this came available,” Stoops said. “Once I met him I knew his personality was perfect for what we needed for our quarterbacks. And his knowledge was impressive and his confidence, so that was all a big part of it.” Stoops offered Scelfo the job, but before the Louisiana-native accepted he asked for one phone call – to none other than his close friend Dykes. “I called him and told him I really felt good, ‘I think this is the place,’ and he said ‘you know what, it is.’ He said ‘it’s a great place, I was there and it is a great place,’” Scelfo said in his southern accent. Scelfo was set to coach under his close friend in 2010 at Louisiana Tech — where he served as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach from 2007 to 2009. But with Dykes’ support, Scelfo decided he couldn’t pass on the opportunity at Arizona. “Sonny and I talked about the opportunity (to coach together), we’ve been knowing each other a long time,” Scelfo said. “It was a deal
Quarterback coach Frank Scelfo has done a lot of talking this season, but it has only yieled positive results. The Wildcats lead the Pacific 10 Conference with a 74.1 completion percentage this season. Gordon Bates/ Arizona Daily Wildcat
where I needed to decide whether I needed to stay (at Louisiana Tech) or leave. That was kind of it. “We were talking and he said he could sense it in my voice that I really felt comfortable about being (at Arizona) so he said, ‘You got to go, man. Take it.’” The 29-year coaching veteran
took the job and has worked wonders with quarterbacks Nick Foles and Matt Scott. Arizona leads the Pacific 10 Conference and the nation in completion percentage, completing 74.1 percent of their throws through eight games. The Pac-10’s second-best team in terms of completion percentage is Saturday’s
Upbeat is the best word to describe the Icecats’ attitude right now. Wednesday at the Tucson Convention Center, coach Leo Golembiewski cheerfully teased sophomore co-captain Brian Slugocki about his shooting. Slugocki just laughed. He then joked with Blake Richards and Mike Babyak about their playing. After that, he briefly roasted himself as a coach and grinned. But in the end, all of that came in good humor and it showed how tight-knit the Icecats really are. “It’s a lot more positive and everyone is excited to get going especially at home,” Slugocki said. “Everyone is really pumped up for the season now that we’re officially starting at home.” Golembiewski stayed lighthearted and showed excitement talking about the team. He said there are players from 14 different states and added that the team had a “good mix” and, whether it on the ice or on the bus, the Icecats get along well. “It’s going to be a fun team to watch,” Golembiewski said with a smile. Richards, a junior forward, said that the chemistry is good but there is another thing about the team too. “It’s probably the best it’s been in the past years,” he said. “I think this year we’re getting not so much chemistry, but more effort from guys. They come in wanting to do well.” He said that freshman forward Andrew Murmes has “shot off and wants to do really well,” the evidence in his six goals and eight assists to total 14 points. Senior co-captain forward Jordan Schupan leads the team with 16 points. The Icecats will be able to put away their suitcases until the end of January because they open a 14-game stretch at home starting Friday night. This comes after the team started the season with seven straight road games.
opponent Stanford, who completes 66.8 percent of its balls. “That’s pretty ridiculous this far through the season,” Stoops said of the completion percentage after the Washington game. “That’s a credit to both of those players, that’s a credit to our offensive staff and certainly coach Scelfo. He does a great job in preparation.” Scelfo coached for 11 seasons at Tulane (1996-2006) and mentored four NFL quarterbacks – Patrick Ramsey, Shaun King, J.P. Losman and Lester Ricard. The 59-year-old applied that coaching prowess to Arizona’s quarterbacks, as he adjusted Foles’ footwork and helped Scott develop a shorter release. “They were raw, but talented,” Scelfo said of Arizona’s quarterbacks when he first came to Arizona. “Skills, physical talents, they had those so I was excited to start working with them after spending time with them because they really wanted to learn. They were anxious to get busy and get started.” Foles and Scott have both matured with another year under their collective belt, but it’s no coincidence Arizona’s increase in passing prowess came at the same time Scelfo came aboard. Players and coaches rave about the job Scelfo’s done with the Wildcats’ arms, but Scelfo gives all of the credit to the players. “That ain’t me, that’s the kids,” Scelfo said. “That’s those guys. They did it, not me.” Scelfo’s enjoyed his time working with players the caliber of Foles and Scott, but said what makes his job is the coaches he’s surrounded by, SCELFO, page 10
Swim gearing up for season By Kelly Hultgren Arizona Daily Wildcat It’s a late Monday afternoon at Hillenbrand Aquatic Center, and the UA swim team is finishing up one of its nine weekly practices. To end practice on a competitive note, head coach Frank Busch calls out for a quick men vs. women race. With game faces and goggles on, the horn sounds, sending the swimmers into the water. Women take the first of the two, and the second was a toss-up. Regardless of the outcomes, the friendly competition is aimed to make them stronger. “I want to form my team into the best possible team they can be,” said Busch, who’s beginning his 22nd season as head coach. The team has been training hard in and out of the water to prepare for this season. Practices are comprised of swim workouts, running workouts, core and upper-body strength training. The team hits the weight room twice a week. SWIM, page 10

Hunches lead to several arrests
theme today,â&#x20AC;? Alvarez said. UAPD also honored James Wooten, who has worked with UA facilities management for two and a half years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to be recognized for something other than what I do,â&#x20AC;? he said, though he did have mixed feelings about receiving an award at first. Wooten is the lead plumber in the department, and noticed a man carrying two buckets full of scrap pieces of metal. He suspected that they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually belong to the man so he called UAPD. His hunch was right, and officers were able to make contact with the suspect. Another woman honored was Barbra Quade, the wife of a UA geological sciences and anthropology professor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I usually like to take walks at 5 a.m.,â&#x20AC;? she said, as she told the story of how she witnessed a bike theft. â&#x20AC;&#x153;UAPD was very, very responsive.â&#x20AC;? Quade did not have a cell phone on her at the time that she saw two suspects steal a bike from the Main Library. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I called from one of the emergen-

cy phones, and thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;How are they going to catch them?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; But in fact, I talked to police again on my way back from my walk, and they said they had actually caught the two suspects â&#x20AC;Ś they did a fantastic job.â&#x20AC;? Other people who were recognized at the ceremony were Jacques Boubeka, Rick Harbaugh and Pima County Bike Ambassadors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to know that by having people like you here among us in our community, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to make it a better place,â&#x20AC;? Daykin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And all the efforts that take place by all our people, uniform and nonuniform, that work in the partnership and support UAPD â&#x20AC;Ś enable us to have the kind of compartment we need behind the scenes, to be able to work in partnership and accomplish what we do.â&#x20AC;? Guests were invited to refreshments in the UAPD conference after the awards ceremony, which Alvarez said will be â&#x20AC;&#x153;one of many to come.â&#x20AC;?

and she accepted,â&#x20AC;? Fey said. Jovan Erfan, the media relations manager at Center for Creative Photography, said the event should appeal to all types of people, no matter what level of photographic knowledge they have. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For someone who sees photography as something that generally includes landscape type of sceneries, this will be something totally different,â&#x20AC;? Erfan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is abstract art, so it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a type that people normally see.â&#x20AC;? Of her abstract artwork, Kasten said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It shows that there are alternatives to the traditional method of using photography to show the world at large. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not representational; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a different approach.â&#x20AC;? The art exhibit is going on now and will run until Nov. 28. Work by Bill Armstrong and Wynn Bullock will also be on display until that date. The show features a group
of artists whose work relates to abstraction, according to Erfan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The show itself was put together by Aperture gallery in New York City, then was brought to the UA by programming,â&#x20AC;? Erfan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In (Kastenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) lecture program she will play photographs within the context of her larger body of work, so you will get to see work from her entire career, whereas at the exhibit thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just her one piece,â&#x20AC;? Fey said. The image in the exhibition is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Studio Construct,â&#x20AC;? and is a single photograph. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always enjoyed the way she creates forms in order to photograph them. Often when you think of abstraction, you think of abstracting something that exists already, but she works backwards from that â&#x20AC;Ś she creates something, which she then photographs, and thus creates really interesting sculptural forms,â&#x20AC;? Fey
said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She creates geometric shapes using mirrors, glass and very careful lighting. And the image thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the exhibition is just a beautiful range of tones and shapes.â&#x20AC;? Kasten earned her Master â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree from the California College of Arts and Crafts, in Oakland, Calif., and now teaches photography at Columbia College Chicago. She has had her photography represented internationally and in well-known places such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. She also taught photography at the UA for one semester while it was looking for a permanent instructor. A former Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority member while at the UA, Kasten said she still has family connections in Arizona, â&#x20AC;&#x153;So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very close to home. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really excited to come back.â&#x20AC;?
Self-segregation concerns raised by senator
other residence halls for transgendered individuals who might not want to live in the wing would also be available. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not all LGBTQ people are looking for this option, but having it â&#x20AC;Ś and recognizing that there should be a safe space to live is a step forward,â&#x20AC;? said Jai Smith, student codirector of ASUA Pride Alliance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t something that is going to be a replacement for diversity initiatives within Residence Life.â&#x20AC;?
He added that, â&#x20AC;&#x153;there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a reason that LGBTQ people should have to be a spokesperson for their community every day.â&#x20AC;? Students would be eligible for the housing option on a first come, first serve basis. Feelings of self-segregation and a â&#x20AC;&#x153;step backwardâ&#x20AC;? came up in Sen. Jeff Adamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; conversations with students, he said. The allied inclusion in the housing remained Sen. Dominick San
Angeloâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crucial factor in supporting the initiative, going against the separation and segregation concerns that came up with students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By allowing allies to live in that wing as well, then you change it from kind of a more demographic type classification, to more of a community of like-minded individuals,â&#x20AC;? San Angelo said. Adams was the only dissenting vote in the decision to pass the resolution.
A small part of the meeting also went to new programs on campus and club funding. Scholarship Universe, a new program presented to the senate delivered a new system that shows students their eligibility for scholarships through their UA NetID, according to Rebekah H. Salcedo, student scholarship services coordinator at the UA Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid. Glitches in the student services
fee-funded system have made preprogrammed information a problem for student employees in the system but since its opening Monday, more than 160 students have accessed Scholarship Universe successfully. The Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Resource Center did not present to the senate as scheduled. The senate also approved all portions of the funding allocated by the appropriations board to clubs on Monday.

SWIM continued from page 6
Busch awaits freshmen contributions
Rewinding back to last season, despite half of the team being hospitalized days before the national championships as a result of the Norovirus infection, the then-No. 1 men’s team finished third, while the women’s team finished fourth. The team collectively lost 16 seniors last year, eight men and eight women. Generally, this would produce a lackluster outlook for the upcoming season, but for Busch’s team, that’s not the case at all. “There’s some talent in the freshman class,” Busch said. “It’s really hard to predict what they’re going to do after just one event, but we are going to count on our freshmen to do good this year. We have no choice, a third of our team is freshmen, on both sides.” Part of helping the freshmen succeed will come from the leadership of older players, like junior Cory Chitwood. “I am just trying to lead by example to the freshmen,” Chitwood said. “Actions always speak louder than words and that is how I plan on helping lead the freshmen.” In order to get the new faces acclimated, Busch broke tradition and took part in a weekend event in mid-October. UA swim and dive hosted ASU, UNLV and Kansas in a two-day meet. “Normally we don’t swim meets until November, I just thought with 16 new freshmen it would be a good idea to give them a chance to do another competition,” Busch said. “It was good for them to see what a college meet was all about. It was important that we did it.” The women freshmen proved to be getting acclimated, sweeping the dual meet by beating Kansas, 178-84, and UNLV, 176-82. The Wildcats and Sun Devils didn’t compete because of their future dual-meet. The men lost 138-123 to UNLV, but did learn something about their team. “We swam people in some off events,” said Busch. “It wasn’t a great time to highlight anything. I moved some people around.” Of all the newcomers, Busch was most pleased with freshman Margo Geer.
Among her personal wins and numerous team contributions, her most distinguished race was her win in the 50-yard freestyle with the time of 22.77, a NCAA consideration time. Geer, along with the seven other freshmen women were combined to make the No. 2 recruiting class in the country. Junior captain of the women’s side, Alyssa Anderson, also made some notable contribution. Anderson won three events: the 200 fly in 2:01.41, the 200 free in 1:48.93 and the 200 I.M. in 2:05.80. For the men, 200 backstroke national champion and captain, Chitwood, won the 200 I.M. in 1:50.42. “I felt my performance in the first meet was solid but a little sloppy,” Chitwood said. “We just have to learn how to swim each meet like it is a championship meet to get Cory this young team ready for Chitwood a championship season.” Last year the men’s team went undefeated in dual meets, but despite dropping the first one this year, Busch is keeping an even perspective. “For us, we want to be good in our dual meets, but we want to be the best in the NCAA’s,” Busch said. “We go to a meet in December called the Texas Invitational and there are standards we try and make the qualifying standards. Generally, no one will make a standard in a dual meet.” The Texas Invitational in December and national championships in March are the two meets the team really focuses on. “There are some teams that are really good in dual meets and still perform pretty well at the end of the year,” Busch said. “But in our case, we’ve never quite had enough quality to be superstars throughout the year and do really well at the end. We’ve had quality, not quantity, on our team for the most part, so we just focus on doing well at the end.”

rather than the talent he has to work with. “If I work for a good guy, with some good guys, it’s a good job. If that’s not the case, I don’t care if I’m coaching Peyton Manning, it’s not a good job,” he said. While Stoops said Scelfo fits in great with the coaching staff and players, he did admit that like any other coach, he can get on his nerves at times. “He’s always talking. He drives me crazy,” Stoops said with a smile. “It’s good for us, it’s good for me. I don’t like to talk all that much. When I speak they usually listen, except for Saturday afternoon for like three hours.”
Scelfo on Foles’ NFL chances:
“Oh he will, his measurables will be good, his height, weight, arm strength, all that stuff. Knowledge of the game will be good. He’s still got some growing to do, he’s still got to work some more stuff, he’s got to be a little more natural in what he’s doing but he’ll project. He and Matt both will get an opportunity, I believe.”
Although the Icecats are 3-4, they are ranked 23rd in Division I of the American Collegiate Hockey Association. They have scored 33 goals so far, compared to 26 last year after seven games. Additionally, they’ve only given up 31 goals compared to 40 last year at this point. Slugocki feels the team could still be undefeated, especially seeing that three of the team’s losses have been by one goal. “We’re looking good, but we should be 7-0 right now,” he said. “We’ve played pretty well but obviously we’re 3-4 right now and I don’t feel like that doesn’t fully say how we’ve been playing. For the rest of the season I don’t see us losing too many more games.” Mike Babyak, a sophomore forward, is looking forward to having a home crowd. “It’s going to help us out tremendously,” he said about playing at home. “We didn’t have anything playing on the road in these small arenas.”
