GPSC angry over presidential search snub By Eliza Molk Daily Wildcat
While the 23-member UA Presidential Search Committee includes regents, university administrators and ASUA President James Allen, it does not include a graduate or professional student. The Arizona Board of Regents appointed committee members who represent core values such as research, education, economic development, community relations and statewide interests shared by multiple constituencies, according to Sarah Harper, the regents’ director of public affairs. Harper said the search committee did not intend to select a representative from each

student, faculty, employment or other constituent interest. Graduate and Professional Student Council President Roeland Hancock said the graduate and professional students at the UA take issue with the “lack of adequate representation” on the committee, and that this omission
is “unjustified and detrimental” to the overall search process. Hancock said this is because it violates their traditional shared governance and leaves critical components of the academic environment without a voice. In the UA’s Shared Governance Memorandum of Understanding, both the Associated Students of the University of Arizona and GPSC are named as groups recommended for consultation in administrative decisions. The Faculty Senate and Shared Governance Review Committee have also recommended that graduate and undergraduate student representatives be included in “the selection and review of
administrators.” While the committee may not include graduate or professional student representation, these students can have a voice in the selection of the new UA president, according to Harper. Public input on the search process will be solicited via email as well as through events and an advisory council to “ensure that all voices are heard.” Additionally, the search committee will post public notices about public forums where members of interested groups can share their thoughts, concerns or suggestions about the search process. “The regents looked for members that are deeply committed to the UA and its exceptional reputation of
academic and research excellence,” Harper said. “As well, they looked for members that could represent many key constituency groups and bring forward their expertise in the search process for the next UA president.” Allen said that ASUA lobbied heavily to ensure a seat next to the already-present student regents, and sympathizes with their graduate peers’ lack of inclusion. Allen said he sincerely hopes that GPSC will allow him the opportunity to garner input, ideas and information from GPSC. He intends to bring that information to the search committee and advocate for it. gpsc, 3
Prof says parents misled on shots By Conrad Pursley Daily Wildcat
according Dr. Andreas Theodorou, chief medical officer at University Medical Center. Victims were commonly kept in the intensive care units until their bodies flushed the toxins out naturally. “We’d have to give them an unbelievable amount of sedatives just to keep children controlled and in bed,” said Theodorou, a member of the research team. “They’d spend a day battling
Over the past 10 years, the number of Arizona parents who opted to not inoculate their child has doubled. Arizona is one of several states that allows parents to make such a determination. The Arizona Department of Health Services and the Mel & Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health will be working together with two UA epidemiologists to identify Arizona schools where vaccination exemptions are high. The team will study whether there are pockets in Arizona that are in danger of out an outbreak of a commonly vaccinated illness. They will also attempt to understand the communities’ concern with vaccinations. A projected date for the completion of this project is early 2012. While they’re working to discover why, Rick Herrier, clinical professor in the College of Pharmacy, said he believes he knows the root of the cause. “I think the biggest thing is the fear of autism,” Herrier said.

The award will be used to create an endowed chair for the program, named for Bolton and his late wife, Phyllis, a position that will be filled by Tom Patterson, who is the program’s director. Sanford Bolton was a visiting professor of pharmacy and pharmacy practice at the UA in 2004. The gift is only surpassed by an anonymous $3 million donation given to the School of Dance, according to Jory Hancock, the college’s dean, in a release. The gift may also provide support for faculty and graduate assistants, and help attract and support visiting faculty members. The UA’s classical guitar program is the largest in the nation, with nearly 30 students enrolled in the program at the undergraduate and graduate levels. More students are also involved indirectly via minors or related programs. There are about 550 music majors currently enrolled at the UA.

kids underage actually drink?
Welcome to another year of the Red Cup Q&A, where we answer real student questions on all things alcohol. Look for this column Tuesdays in the Arizona Daily Wildcat, or check out the Q&A archives online anytime at www.health.arizona.edu. Now back to your question. Among all underage drinkers in the U.S., typically defined as ages 12-20, 26% used alcohol in the past 30 days.1 Wondering about the numbers here on campus? Each spring semester at the UA, students take part in the anonymous Health & Wellness Survey across a random selection of classes. According to the 2011 survey, which had 2,479 respondents, 56% of UA students under 21 reported having alcohol at least once in the past 30 days. In other words, 44% of underage UA students do not drink.
Come to the dark side...
Seem hard to believe? If it does, you are not alone – many people are surprised given the myths they have heard. After all, drinking stories have a way of getting around more than word of those epic late night study sessions. And let’s face it, individuals who drink beyond their limit are sometimes hard to ignore. There’s also another reason why these numbers may seem off to you: if you are drinking underage, some of your friends may be drinking with you. The bottom line is that many UA students don’t use alcohol, and for those who do, most of them drink moderately and party smart. For example, 91% of UA students use a designated driver if they plan to drink, 51% set a limit on the number of drinks they will have, and 86% eat food before and while they are drinking. Anytime there is alcohol, there is the potential for risk, but most experienced drinkers realize that part of having a good time is taking steps to be safe.

The College of Medicine revealed the renovations to its student lounge yesterday at a grand opening event attended by students and members of the college administration. “We renovated to make the area a little more relaxing and professionallooking, and also to give it a coffee shop feeling so students can kick back and have a place to study and relax,” said Mary Matthews, director of planning and facilities at the College of Medicine. The renovations included new couches and chairs, a renovated kitchen space, new lighting, a flatscreen TV and a game room that

to a 1998 article by Dr. Andrew Wakeman. The article stated that a link exists between inoculation and the risk of developing autism. Vaccination rates have declined steadily since the publication of the article. “It’s totally unwarranted,” Herrier said. “The guy falsified his data.” A subsequent investigation by BMJ (British Medical Journal) found Wakeman’s study to be fraudulent, and Wakeman was later stripped of his medical license. Herrier said that subsequent studies have failed to produce a result similar to Wakeman’s. Because the article was published in a prestigious medical magazine, it gave validity to the idea for many lay people, Herrier said. “The data was never really

Tucson branch. “We are looking for students who have academic success as well as other interests that will make it easy to pair them off with the right family.” Though the interest of outside employment has added more booths to the employment fair, the number of part-time organizations on campus seeking student employment at the fair has fallen from 27 booths to 23. “At the moment we have a very high retention rate,” said Ashley LaBar, the student union’s human resource coordinator. “We get a lot of students who stay all four years of college
Tuition has steadily increased over the years, but for several students the price tag swelled dramatically overnight. Approximately 200 in-state students were temporarily reclassified as non-residents this summer because of a synchronization error with the UAccess system. The difference meant an increase of nearly $8,000 in tuition costs. In order to confirm their residency status, students are required to complete a domicile affidavit form as well as paperwork to comply with Proposition 300. Proposition 300, which was approved by Arizona voters in 2006 , bars those who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents from receiving in-state tuition or financial aid subsidized by the state, though students who are not legal residents may still attend the university. John Nametz, director of Student Financial Aid, did not elaborate as to whether this particular issue with UAccess directly impacted student’s financial aid, but said residency does impact financial aid. “When there is a mismatch, students are often most concerned about this issue,” Nametz said in an email. “You could say financial aid is often the catalyst that prompts people to clear up the problems.” Arizona requires a person to live in the state for at least one full year in order to be eligible for in-state tuition. Out-of-state undergraduate students
pay about $12,700 for 12 or more units, while their in-state counterparts pay about $4,600 for seven or more units. Both graduate and undergraduate students were affected by the error, which placed the students’ residency status in limbo until their lawful presence could be verified. The UAccess system, which is about a year old, originally encountered other problems and underwent an overhaul last spring. Other issues with UAccess have been with record transfers, which caused students to have problems registering and paying for class. Nametz said he didn’t have specific information related to the issues with UAccess over the summer. “Residency status does not delay financial aid awards,” Nametz said. “If an award was based on residency status and the student is reclassified as a non-resident, the aid gets corrected to the amount the student would have received at the time the award was offered.” He said the opposite is true for a non-resident whose status changes to resident, in which case a student may perceive a delay in financial aid. “When the residency status is made correct (whether by student or UA), the billing would reflect lesser tuition and then create a cash ‘refund’ to the student,” Nametz said. He said the fall 2011 semester is going far better than past years. “Despite seeing double-digit
features a foosball table and a pingpong table. The lounge previously shared space with offices for financial aid, special events and alumni affairs. Part of the reason for the change, Matthews said, was because students were questioning whether it was a place for students or for administrative offices. “The students didn’t know if they were too noisy or if they were disrupting the offices,” she said. “So we relocated the offices so students that needed to visit them had a bit more of a private entrance.” After relocating the offices, the student lounge increased from 2,210 square feet to 2,500 square feet. “I think the space is more properly
utilized. It’s brighter, so it feels more inviting,” said Gunnhild Albrecht, a second year medical student. Sonam Singh, also a second year medical student, said she enjoys the new kitchen area and the study spaces. “There’s a place to study, I like that a lot,” Singh said. “You don’t have to isolate yourself in a library if you want to do something.” The lounge was mainly funded through the College of Medicine. The kitchen area features an ice machine that was funded by the Associated Students of the University of Arizona. “The whole area seems really inviting and every time I go in there, it seems more well-used compared to before,” said Matthews.
compelling,” he said, “but that didn’t stop people from picking it up. Google autism and vaccine and you’ll get all kinds of crap.” Although Wakeman’s study was discredited last year, an article released this March in another British medical magazine called The Journal of Immunotoxicology reinforced the idea the idea of vaccines causing autism, albeit indirectly. Author Helen Ratajczak wrote an article claiming that certain vaccinations might cause encephalitis, swelling of the brain, which could cause autism. “It’s theoretical, it’s unproven,” Harrier said, adding that the difference between theory and fact in medicine is monumental. Still, Harrier said he agrees vaccines have risks. Oddball reactions could occur, but are mostly allergic reactions, such as aches and pains or symptoms of
the flu, he said. “There’s no drug that’s 100 percent safe. Sugar isn’t safe, water isn’t safe,” Harrier said. “It’s the margin of safety that’s important.” When asked if his kids were vaccinated Harrier said, “Damn right they are,” and went on to say he also went out and got vaccinated for whooping cough when he heard he was going to be a grandfather. Herrier said he believes the idea of vaccinations causing autism is “dead” and that the argument has degenerated now into an emotional issue. New parent Rachel Rhodes, however, is not so sure. Shortly after she found out she was pregnant, she read up on vaccinations. “The statistics I was reading caused me to reconsider (vaccinations),” Rhodes said. Rhodes said she found sources linking vaccines to several diseases and disorders, including attention
deficit hyperactivity disorder, asthma and autism. After her research, Rhodes ultimately decided not to inoculate her child, and said she believes proper nutrition is a more suitable defense against disease. Rhodes said she believes the decision to get immunized is based heavily on opinion, and that it’s not always an easy decision to make. “If you’re a parent whose kid just died after taking a bunch of vaccines … or is damaged mentally, I think they would say no,” Rhodes said. Herrier said he sees no reason not to get immunized. “We’ve wiped out polio worldwide,” Herrier said. “When I was a kid all these people were in iron lungs, and people wouldn’t go swimming in the summer or hang around people for fear of getting polio. Nobody gets polio anymore.”
“The Associated Students pledge to advocate for a candidate with high academic quality and an unwavering focus on research … an issue we are well aware is vitally important to our graduate constituents,” he said. Hancock sent GPSC’s statement regarding their lack of representation on the committee to the regents. The regents responded with a letter saying they would not offer a graduate or professional student a seat. The Graduate and Professional Student Council is going to continue urging the board for a seat on the committee, according to Hancock. “Finding the next person is obviously an important process, and has a big effect on the university,” said Hancock. “We really need to be involved in that.”
because of the convenience of working on campus.” This year Arizona Student Unions is looking to fill more than 30 positions throughout the UA at the fair, including food and customer service jobs. For students looking to give potential employers a great first impression, Miller suggested preparing ahead of time by checking out the Career Services’ website to view the list of corporations attending, ask questions and dress accordingly to the event. “Try not to dress like you are coming back from the beach,” Miller said. “Be neat, clean and professional and you should be ready to go.”

enough to last until 2004. “We realized we had to rush if we were going to replace the dwindling supply before it ran out,” Boyer said. The testing started by comparing the symptoms of 15 children in Tucson hospitals who were either given the anti-venom or a placebo. The study found that the anti-venom usually resolved symptoms within four hours and prevented the need for invasive measures like ventilators. Boyer then expanded the study to include 27 hospitals across the state, with another one in Nevada. The Arizona Poison and Drug Information Center enrolled all of the patients and kept track of data. “The person had to be willing to be a test subject,” Boesen said. “People started showing up at certain hospitals because they were the only ones participating in the study.”
Boyer said the FDA’s approval came as a relief. “You never know until you are done with the FDA,” Boyer said. The anti-venom will be available on the market within a few weeks, Boesen said. The poison center will continue post-market studies of the drug. “That’s how to catch the really, really rare side effects,” he said. Theodorou said the anti-venom has turned scorpion stings into outpatient injuries. Access to the drug will greatly improve treatment across the state, he said. “I thought of how many kids had to suffer through the pain and complications of the sting and the parents who watched their children writhe with the effects of the neurotoxin,” Theodorou said. “That can be avoided for future parents and future children.”

Degree Crisis
The destruction, dismantling of the college education
I
n one way or another, at some point in our lives, we have all been told that the high school diploma isn’t what it used to be. The chances are that if we hadn’t been told this, a vast majority of us wouldn’t be in college to begin with. The job market has evolved into a highly-competitive and college-degree-demanding super-being. However, with class sizes on the rise and admission standards plummeting, the sad truth is that soon the college diploma won’t be what it used to be either. In particular, your UA diploma’s worth is taking more hits than the United States’ credit rating. In an effort to curtail the frequency at which freshmen leave the UA, there is a new plan in the works designed to aid in the retention rate. According to an article from the Arizona Daily Star, the UA’s freshman retention rate slumped from 80 percent some four years ago to an embarrassing 77 percent last year. With numbers like that, something had to be done. The UA has come up with a plan that attempts to tackle the dilemma in three ways. The UA will introduce a math course titled “Math 100” to try and get across the basics of math that many new students lack. There will also be a new “early alert” system that enables instructors to set up benchmarks that determine if a student is still on track to pass a course. In theory, a student not meeting the little checkpoints along the way will be told that they’re on the right path for failure. Lastly, students will have a degree tracker showing all of the courses that they’re taking and how they fit with graduation. In other words, the UA is accepting students who can’t adjust to the responsibilities of college, and the response is to coddle them more with courses and programs that we already have. No matter that Math 112 is essentially a calculus prep class and doesn’t logically need a lower instructional class below it. Disregard the fact that an early alert system is going to create more undue work for professors and just forget completely that a students’ advisement report already details all the requirements of a degree and what classes meet those specifications. At what point does the responsibility of these supposed college-ready, and worthy, students kick in? Throughout my entire academic career, I’ve always been told that the next year or the next rung of the educational ladder is going to be more difficult and require more responsibility. Yet, every year, it seems that doesn’t ring true. There still seem to be unnecessary safety nets and useless programs that have no place at such an academic level. A college education is not a right, it’s an opportunity. If universities are admitting students incapable of low level college math, perhaps they shouldn’t be admitted. If a new student can’t take the responsibility to monitor their own progress and study the concepts of a lecture, perhaps they need to work on that before they apply. It’s easy to see why the high school diploma lost its luster; it isn’t preparing students for much of anything. At this rate, the college diploma, or at least one from the UA, could find itself in a similar situation. Perhaps the problem isn’t that the UA isn’t offering the students a chance to succeed, perhaps the problem is the students aren’t prepared in the first place.

mailbag Why take the chance? I read your article named “Reproductive rights, not women, need protecting.” I understand your position, but I do believe that the way you presented people who are pro-life was unfair. I know I will not deter your thinking but I would just like to explain my thinking about this issue. It is true that my views are not mainly based on protecting women, they never were. I do think that is a concern but I understand that hiding behind this reasoning is shallow and not completely honest. The reason I am a pro-lifer is because the beginning of life has not been established. If we do not know when the human life begins, why should we risk the chance that we are killing children? The risk is too great for me to willingly accept the possible costs.

Storm Tracker
Check your fists at the entrance S torm Tracker is a regular feature of the Daily Wildcat, in which perspectives editor Storm Byrd analyzes a timely topic and gauges how upset you should be. At the beginning of Major League Baseball’s 2011 season, violence among fans resulted in a brutal attack on a San Francisco Giants fan at the hands of a pair of Los Angeles Dodgers fans. Now with the National Football League’s season nearing its kickoff, violence has made its presence known as a multi-sport terror. During a preseason game between bitter regional rivals, the Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers, multiple brawls were witnessed in the stands and outside the stadium after the game’s conclusion. Matters escalated to the point that two men were left seriously injured

While acts of unnecessary violence are on the rise, let them be the exception, and not the standard. This holds especially true at the UA. There are few worse ways to derail your college education than going to prison for knocking an Arizona State University fan’s teeth out, or clocking some clown because he said something to make you mad. Let it go, and remember that you’re there to enjoy yourself. While you shouldn’t let your emotions control you, you can’t help but feel torrents of tension about thug like behavior in leisurely environments. The moral of the day is to check your aggression at the door.

POLICE BEAT By Rebecca Rillos DAILY WILDCAT
High in the Sky
A University of Arizona Police Department officer went to Sky View Apartments on Thursday in response to a report of a marijuana-like odor coming from one of the rooms. The officer knocked on the door of the room and one of the residents opened it. The odor was stronger inside the room. The five other men in the apartment were advised of their rights and agreed to answer any questions. The men said they had been using marijuana by means of an electric vaporizer that belonged to one of the residents who had a cannabis medical treatment recommendation from a doctor in California. The resident gave the officer his California driver’s license to verify his identity and accidentally revealed a fake ID while retrieving it. The occupants of the room were cited for possession and use of marijuana and one was also cited for possession of a fictitious driver’s license.
Likins Hall residents likin’ marijuana
A call from Likins Hall around 12:30 a.m. on Thursday alerted UAPD officers to an odor of marijuana coming from one of the rooms. The resident granted the officers entrance to the room but denied the presence of any marijuana. “I don’t know what you guys smell. I don’t smell any marijuana,” one of the residents said. The resident refused to allow the officers to search his side of the room. The resident was served with a warrant a few hours later and the officers searched his side of the room. They found a broken glass pipe and a bag of fresh marijuana in a metal safe bolted to the bed frame. Th e resident was arrested and booked into Pima County Jail on charges of possession of marijuana and narcotic paraphernalia.
Trouble develops for men with photograph
UAPD officers responded to a call about two men acting suspiciously in Likins Hall at midnight on Wednesday. Two resident assistants said they had been conducting a security check of the second floor when they noticed two men pulling on the door handles as they walked down the hallway. One man ran when the RAs called out to him. As the other pulled out his ID, a photo of two female cheerleaders fell from his shorts pocket. The RA recognized the photo as one that had been hanging from the door of one of the rooms. “You’re fucking hot” had been written on the whiteboard of the women’s door. The RAs caught up with the man who had run from them and he denied turning the door handles or writing the message. The man was a Likins Hall resident. The officers attempted contact with the resident but received no answer. There is no further information.
Man should keep mouth, drawer shut
UAPD officers responded to Kaibab-Huachuca Residence Hall on Thursday around 11 p.m., in response to a marijuana odor coming from one of the rooms. The officers went to the room in question but could not detect any odor from outside of the room. They knocked on the door and one of the residents allowed them entry to the room to talk. The officers noticed that the resident, who lived by himself, had slow speech, dilated pupils and bloodshot eyes. The resident told officers he did not have anything and did not smoke. He consented to a search of the room and later said that his stuff was in the drawer. The officers searched the drawer and found a pipe, marijuana and a medical marijuana certificate from California. The authenticity of the certificate is unknown. The resident was informed that if the certificate were not valid, he would be charged for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
Bike stolen from Psychology building
A student met with a UAPD officer on Thursday about her bike that had been stolen from the racks near the Psychology building. The woman told the officer she had locked her bike to the racks around 7:30 a.m. When she returned around 4 p.m., her bike and lock were gone. The woman could not provide the serial number for the bike and it was not registered with Parking and Transportation Services.

MLK memorial dedicated on National Mall Mcclatchy tribune
WASHINGTON — Rep. Frederica Wilson had a chance recently to take a private VIP tour of the Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial, but she turned it down. Too soon, she said. “I want to get thrilled seeing it unveiled, to feel the passion,” said Wilson, D-Fla. “I want to see the glory of the statue in a finished state. I want to be wowed with everyone else seeing the finished product.” Wilson will be among an anticipated crowd of more than 250,000 spectators Sunday for the dedication of the King memorial — a tranquil monument of stone, greenery and trees along the northwest edge of Washington’s Tidal Basin that will honor the slain civil rights leader. Sunday’s ceremony, which coincides with the 48th anniversary of King’s “I Have a Dream” speech, will officially open the first monument on the National Mall honoring an African-American. The $120 million memorial is part of a burgeoning number of monuments in the nation’s capital recognizing African-American contributions to American life and culture. On Washington’s busy U Street corridor, the African American Civil War Museum recently reopened in a new, 5,000-square-foot home to

The prized acquisitions include a silk and linen shawl given to Harriet Tubman by Queen Victoria, a biplane used by the Tuskegee Airmen, items from the popular African-American TV dance show “Soul Train,” and the original coffin of Emmet Till, the 14-year-old African-American boy who was brutally murdered in Mississippi in 1955 after he allegedly whistled at a white woman. His open-casket funeral was a focal point in the civil rights struggle. “What’s happening here is, finally, the world of museums and monuments are recognizing what we have known in the last 50 years, and that is the history and import of African-American culture is one of the most important things in our history,” said Lonnie Bunch, the founding director of the Smithsonian’s African-American museum. “The African-American experience is a constant in defining America.

Libyan rebels tighten grip on Tripoli Gadhafi’s hold on city weakens as opposition floods capital Mcclatchy tribune
CAIRO — Rebels pouring in from the countryside strengthened their grip on much of the Libyan capital, setting up checkpoints and securing buildings even as longtime leader Moammar Gadhafi evaded their grasp and pockets of his loyalists continued to put up fierce resistance. Heavy fighting rumbled around Gadhafi’s Bab Azizia compound in southern Tripoli, and throughout the capital rebels said they had sustained heavy losses. The opposition forces claimed control of about 80 percent of the city, which was at once jubilant
with waving flags and precarious with the rattle of gunfire. Attention quickly focused on how the Transitional National Council, the rebels’ governing body, would impose order on a fractious tribal nation battered by six months of revolt. The rebels are prone to divisions and Western officials worry that power struggles and the desire for revenge may threaten stability much as they did after the fall of Saddam Hussein in Iraq. But the rebels’ sense of momentum suffered a blow early Tuesday when Gadhafi’s son and onetime heir apparent, Seif Islam, appeared at a Tripoli hotel that remained in the hands of Gadhafi’s forces. The rebels had claimed Sunday that they had captured him. Another son,
Mohammed, was reported to have escaped rebel custody. Gadhafi’s tanks and snipers took strategic positions in several Tripoli neighborhoods. Still, it was uncertain if the mercurial man who referred to himself as Brother Leader and ruled the nation for nearly 42 years could muster a potent counterattack. NATO indicated that it would continue its airstrikes against the Libyan leader’s army. That poses a high risk of civilian casualties in Tripoli, a dense urban landscape with more than 1.6 million people. But the pressing question for rebel leaders and NATO commanders was Gadhafi’s whereabouts. Unlike on previous days, the Libyan leader released no new audio broadcasts.

Pastner recruits Walton to Memphis UA alumnus to work under former coach until NBA lockout lifts By Mike Schmitz Daily Wildcat
Lawrence K. Ho / Los angeles times/ mct
The Los Angeles Lakers’ Luke Walton, right, battles against the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Ramon Sessions in the first half at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Jan. 11. Walton will be an assistant coach under Memphis head coach Josh Pastner until the NBA lockout ends.
While NBA players like Derrick Williams have traveled the country and globe to play in glorified pickup games during the dark cloud of the league lockout, others are taking more unique approaches. Enter Arizona alumnus Luke Walton. The Los Angeles Lakers forward was recommended on Monday to join Josh Pastner’s coaching staff at the University of Memphis should the school and Tennessee Board of Regents approve the move. “I hired Luke because I felt that he was the best man for the job to help us for this year,” Pastner said in a phone interview with the Daily Wildcat on Monday evening. “I wanted to think outside of the box, get a little innovative and hire a current guy in the NBA, a current player. I thought that would be great.” Pastner, a former UA walk-on and assistant coach, originally wanted to
hire former Pittsburgh and University of Nevada, Las Vegas head coach Tim Grgurich, but when Grgurich declined, Pastner turned to the fellow former Wildcat. Walton’s interest grew after he coached at the NBA players association camp and “absolutely loved it,” according to Pastner. Memphis’ 33-year-old head coach couldn’t turn down Walton’s winning pedigree. “The guy’s been to four world championships, he’s got two titles, he’s been arguably under one of the great coaches in all of sports in Phil Jackson and played long seasons with Kobe Bryant,” Pastner said. “I think the guy’s got a wealth of knowledge, and he’s going to help us right away this year.” Pastner said Walton will handle the Memphis big men, while having a hand in recruiting and becoming “heavily involved in relationships with our current guys too.” In theory, Walton will be able to spread his wealth of knowledge to the Tigers’ players immediately, but there’s undoubtedly a risk that comes with hiring a current NBA player. As he’s signed with the Lakers for two more seasons, Walton will
return to the NBA once the lockout ceases, and if it ends sooner rather than later, Pastner will once again be on the hunt for a new assistant coach. But despite that risk, Pastner is confident in the decision. “It is a calculated risk but I felt the rewards outweigh the risk when you’ve got a guy who can help currently right now,” Pastner said. “It’s a no-brainer.” Pastner told Memphis media that he’s already been sending Walton DVDs of Memphis’ basketball philosophies and mapped out time for the NBA role player to remain in shape for the NBA. Walton graduated from Arizona in 2003 and was drafted by the Lakers, where he’s averaged five points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game in his career. At Arizona, he was a twotime captain and won two Pacific 10 Conference Championships. He also was a member of the 2001 team that lost to Duke in the NCAA title game. It comes as no surprise that Pastner hired another Wildcat product, as his staff already features former Arizona guard Damon Stoudamire and walton, 9
Carey looks like high school self By Mike Schmitz Daily Wildcat
With every prized recruit comes the same warning label: Don’t expect too much too quickly. Wildcats fans learned that last season with four-star recruit Marquis Flowers and in 2009 with fellow four-star safety Adam Hall. The jump from high school football to the collegiate level is no easy feat for an 18-year-old kid, and hoisting the short-term future of a program on a pair of brand new shoulder pads is counterproductive for both the prodigy and the team. But if Saturday’s Meet The Team scrimmage was any indication, freshman running back Ka’Deem Carey may allow coaches to remove that caution tape sooner rather than later. Against the Wildcats’ second and third-string defense, Carey darted all over the field showcasing his combination of power, lateral quickness and straight-line speed. The 5-foot-10, 190-pound back racked up 69 rushing yards on eight carries and ripped off a punishing 42-yard kick return to cap off his coming out party in front of his Gordon bates / Daily Wildcat hometown fans. Running back Ka’Deem Carey rips off a run against the Wildcat defense in “I love what Ka’Deem’s doing,” said head coach Mike Saturday’s football scrimmage at Arizona Stadium. Stoops after the scrimmage. “You can see what a lift he gives our team. He gives us a special quality back there. Arizona’s offensive attack. We have to keep bringing him along. He’s an electrifying “Tonight I saw him grow up a little bit,” Foles said. “He runner. He’s a big, physical kid that has breakaway speed. “He’s a very complete player. It’s just a matter of getting started playing faster, he’s still got a ways to go. We’ve got to keep pushing him because he’s going to be a talented him repetitions and getting him comfortable in our player for this university. Everybody saw it tonight, a offense. If we continue to do that he’ll continue to get freshman running all over the place. He’s going to get with more playing time as he gets more consistent.” our strength coach, continue to learn the offense and he’s Arizona running backs coach Garret Chachere said this going to help us this year.” was by far Carey’s best performance since he joined the It didn’t take long for Carey to show coaches, players Wildcats for training camp. Quarterback Nick Foles echoed that statement and applauded Carey’s growth from simply and the 7,000-plus fans at Arizona Stadium why he was tabbed the state’s seventh-best recruit by Rivals.com. a raw talent to a back finally starting to conceptualize
Carey rushed for 2,738 yards and 45 touchdowns his junior year at Canyon Del Oro High School before racking up 1,754 yards and 26 touchdowns throughout an injuryriddled senior year. His skill-set and grasp of the Wildcats’ schemes finally came full-circle on Saturday night, and if he continues to progress he could become more than just a third-string running back. He’s currently battling sophomore Kylan Butler, who missed the scrimmage due to a family funeral, and fellow freshman speedster Jared Baker for that third spot, yet he has the potential to possibly take some carries from Keola Antolin and Daniel Jenkins as well. But Chachere made it clear that although he’s on the right path, Carey is still early in his development. It’s tough to expect too much production from a young man who just graduated high school and attended his senior prom. Add in the fact that Carey is Tucson’s prodigy and the pressure grows even further. “The challenge is taking a freshman and anointing him the next Archie Griffin, the two-time Heisman Trophy winner. He doesn’t need that pressure,” Chachere said. “He’s just trying to be the best Ka’Deem Carey he can be and that’s all we want him to be, and as you’ve seen tonight that’s plenty good enough. Right now he’s doing a very nice job and we’re very excited about his progress.” So far, so good for the CDO High School product. With less than two weeks until Arizona’s season opener against NAU, Stoops said he has no idea how many carries the freshman will see against the Lumberjacks. But, after Saturday, Stoops does know that the Wildcats may be able to take the training wheels off a little sooner than expected. “He’s going to play,” Chachere said. “If he continues to progress on the field like he has been and in the meeting rooms and off the field in the film study, then he’ll get his chance to play.”
No vacation in Hawaii Track and field’s Barrett sets new personal best
Volleyball all business for first tournament By Kelly Hultgren Daily Wildcat
For Arizona volleyball, this week doubles as the first week of classes and competition. While the majority of students are concluding the week with imminent back-toschool parties on their minds, the volleyball team will be hard at work in Hawaii. Before the potential jealousy sets in, the team is there for business — it’s no vacation. The Wildcats will kick off their season in Honolulu at the Chevron Rainbow Wahine Invitational, where they’ll take on tough competitors like the University of Hawaii Warriors and the Wichita State Shockers. “There are lot of reasons why you’d want to go there, vacation is one of them, because that’s what most people associate with this competition,” said volleyball head coach David Rubio. “But when you’re in the throes of competition, you could be in Alaska versus Hawaii and it wouldn’t make a difference, because you’re not participating in any of the extracurricular things.” The team will arrive on Thursday and compete Friday through Sunday, with one match per day. Despite staying across the street from the famous Waikiki beach, their time gaps will be filled with

It will be senior Curtsy Jackson’s first trip to the tropical state. “I am super excited, but at the same time it is a business trip, so we wont get to enjoy it as much as I would like,” said Jackson, who is one of the seven returning starters for the Wildcats. University of Hawaii volleyball head coach Dave Shoji, a good friend of Rubio’s, has been on him to return to the tournament for the past several years, Rubio said.
He gave in, making this Arizona’s fourth appearance in the tournament within the last 20 years. It might be their fourth most-expensive tournament as well, considering this one is estimated to cost $1,000 to $1,500 more than an average trip for them, Rubio said. Aside from the obvious perks of traveling to Hawaii, Rubio thinks the overall volleyball experience outweighs the higher costs. “It’s always a little more expensive to travel there, but they give a volleyball, 9

Pac-12 Enterprises names first president The newly-created Pac-12 Enterprises company — the umbrella that will include the television, digital and property arms of the conference — announced Gary Stevenson as the first president yesterday, according to Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott. He will head the Pac-12 that recently signed on to six regional cable networks, along with deals with national networks in Fox Sports and ESPN. The new television deal has an estimated worth of $2.7 billion over 12 years. Stevenson is considered an expert in the sports marketing world, having worked for the NBA, the PGA Tour, the Golf Channel, and the president of the consulting firm, OnSport. “Gary is one of the true visionaries of the sports and entertainment world,” said Scott in a release. “He will lead Pac-12 Enterprises at an exciting time in our conference’s history, just as we are poised to serve millions of our fans via our innovative new media platforms.” Stevenson’s appointment comes as Scott hopes to expand the Pac-12 network beyond television, as its digital network aims to bring the conference’s sports, especially
women’s and Olympic sports, into the realm of new media. That will help push the league both internationally and even to the East Coast, where time zone differences have been just one of the reasons for the Pac-12 not being recognized amongst the NCAA’s other big-school conferences. “I have worked with many of the top organizations in the sports world, and I can safely say that there is none that is more exciting, or that has more promise, than the Pac-12,” Stevenson, who holds a bachelor’s degree from Duke University and a master’s from The George Washington University, said in the release. “As innovative as our new national and regional network deals will be, we also have a vision to bring our world-class competition to an even wider audience and to our fans around the world,” he added. “I am excited to be working with Larry Scott, who has been the architect of this remarkable new opportunity, and with the extraordinary member institutions of the Pac-12 toward making that bold vision a reality.”

pretty good guarantee to offset our costs,” Rubio said. “They annually have the largest crowds in attendance, you’re treated like you’re a high-level basketball team.” Volleyball is to Hawaii as basketball is to Arizona — it’s huge there. Rubio says the larger crowds are motivating factors for the players. “Hawaii has a reputation of having so many fans and it’s hard to beat them at home,” Jackson said. “I want to be the team that sweeps them.” As for the starting line-up, nothing is
permanent. The team had their annual RedBlue Scrimmage last Saturday, where Rubio began to play with potential line-ups. This year the team has three returning starters, seniors Courtney Karst, Candace Nicholson and Jackson, whereas the other teams participating in the tournament, especially the Warriors and Shockers, all have a strong, returning base of starters. Rubio says the tournament will be “young versus old.” By starting out in Hawaii, the freshmen are jumping in head first. “We are suppose to be a young team, but I have confidence that how young we are will not be a problem,” Jackson said. “The freshman are super competitive. They all bring such a positive energy that is just so refreshing.”

MTV’s ‘Awkward’ takes an honest look at teen life Mcclatchy tribune
As portrayed on TV, teenage girls — from the cocktail-swilling sophisticates of “Gossip Girl” to the divas-in-training of “Glee” — often seem older than their years. What happened to coming-of-age stories such as “My So-Called Life” and “Freaks and Geeks” that captured teens in the awkward limbo between child and adult? MTV steps into that gap with the aptly named “Awkward,” the sometimes painfully funny story of 15-year-old Jenna Hamilton, who is struggling to get through high school (and attract the attention of a special boy) without dying of embarrassment. Here’s the setup: Jenna, played by Ashley Rickards, thought of herself as invisible, especially after an intimate encounter with jock Matty (Beau Mirchoff) at camp.
“Nobody can know that I like you,” he told her afterward. Then Jenna got an anonymous letter telling her “you could disappear and no one would notice.” Sometimes, she wrote in her blog, “being a teenager makes you want to die.” The ensuing chain of events, including a fall, a hospital stay and a comically ridiculous shoulder cast, managed to get Jenna noticed for the first time, because everyone (including her parents and counselor) thought she attempted suicide. As a result, she has resolved to stop fading into the background and, instead of “Invisible Girl,” she has christened herself “That Girl.” “Awkward” debuted last month to positive reviews, and critics meeting in Los Angeles were delighted when MTV rounded up the cast and creator Lauren Iungerich for a Q&A session.
Woman 1: Why are you complaining so damn much? Woman 2: It’s just … hot. Woman 1: Well, duh. Submit your overheard on Twitter @OverheardAtUA
Jenna was born from “my awkward, embarrassing experiences as a teenager,” Iungerich acknowledges. “I wrote this show to my 15-year-old self.” She doesn’t think she has reinvented the wheel with this show. “I’ve just tried to write something that’s truly honest,” she says. Rickards, best known as Sam on “One Tree Hill” in the 2008-09 season, fell for “Awkward” because “the writing was so unique and so realistic, (and) none of these characters can be stereotyped.” Matty, the boy Jenna loves, “is much more than just the jock,” she says. (There’s another boy, too: Jake, played by Brett Davern, who would be perfect if he didn’t already have a cheerleader girlfriend.) “My mom is much more than just the mom. All of them have incredible depth.”

Freshman scouts future in engineering Are you super passionate about engineering? I really like it. It’s something I’ve been doing forever, since middle school. Since middle school, wow. So why engineering at the UA? It was here, it was close. It’s cheap and a good school. I’m sure you are missing summer already though. What did you do? Went to Hawaii, went canoeing in Montana too.

Oh, so you are an outdoorsman? (Laughs) A little bit, yeah. I’ve done it forever, since I was young.
But Hawaii, that’s fun. Was it your first time? It’s the second time I’ve been. A family trip? Yeah, I went with family. And was Montana a family trip too? No, I actually went with the Boy Scouts. A Boy Scout. Cool. How long have you been doing that? Hmmm. I don’t know. I’ve been doing that for— Forever? Yeah, just about.
