CONCERNED GRADUATE students stand together to speak out about the recent budget cuts to education during the Arizona Board of Regents meeting in the Student Union Memorial Center ballroom on Thursday. The students had various representatives speak during the call to audience to ask for the board of regents to consider the repercussions of the cuts.

During the call to audience at Thursday’s Arizona Board of Regents meeting, a group of graduate students gathered in protest of the proposed budget cuts and had several representatives approach the board.

Various representatives of graduate students on campus and throughout the state of Arizona caused the time designated for the call to audience to go well past 15 minutes. The representatives were presidents for both the Graduate and Professional Student Council on campus and the Graduate and

Professional Student Association at Arizona State University.

The amount of time and responsibility pressed upon graduate students during their required assistant hours, which they claimed took approximately 20 hours of their week, proved to be a hot topic among many representatives. Representatives noted that in addition to the commitment of being assistants and students, they often have to take on other jobs to make a living wage.

Elena L’Annunziati, a gender and women’s studies graduate student, addressed the board regarding these concerns.

“Right now, graduate students at the UA make under the minimum while often having

to take on more than their paid hours to meet the needs of their students,” L’Annunziati said.

Kierstyn Tsosie, a public administration and public policy graduate student and a member of the Navajo tribe, focused on the reality of these issues as a Native American student.

“I’m grateful to even attend college,” Tsosie said, “even if the odds are against me — and I ask myself: How was I be able to get here, and how will I be able to have my children go to college if tuition is to increase?”

Tsosie continued to inform the board that after paying so much money toward tuition, leaving her and others often with little for room and board, members of many tribes look to cultural

The Arizona Board of Regents meetings concluded with the approval of several motions after report recaps presented by UA faculty members and students throughout the week.

Regent Treasurer Rick Myer called for support of four motions that were unanimously approved by the board. > A new action should hold the line on enterprise cuts, creating a limit of no more than 10 percent of total university enterprise support from the state. > Cuts should be given in a lump sum to the enterprise and managed by the board. > Budget reductions must be coupled with reforms presented in the board’s legislative agenda. > Lastly, triggers should be included so that university funding increases as soon as the state’s budget position improves.

Myer said he wants to “prevent further erosion of the universities’ share of state General Fund support.”

The board of regents also unanimously approved Senate Bill 1076.

The bill appropriates $200,000 into the student loan program for math, science and special education. Upon graduation, students who received loans will be contracted to teach in areas where teachers are needed.

In addition, all consented agenda items were unanimously approved including the 2015-2016 UA Academic Strategic Plan.

Academic Student Affair Committee Regent LuAnn Leonard gave the Academic Student Affair Committee Report, which primarily focused on academic elements of UA’s operational and financial programs.

QUOTE TO NOTE

“The 57th Grammy Awards began and ended with charming newcomer Sam Smith.”

A UA alumni was notified he would not be forced to return his personalized plate reading “LOLASU” after being told to do so.

“I’m a UA grad and a Wildcat fan; we laugh at ASU — that’s just what we do,” Josh Miller said, who graduated in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts in media arts.

In October 2014, Miller received a letter from the Arizona Department of Transportation asking him to return his custom plate based on an anonymous complaint.

Miller chose to appeal this decision and received a notice in January letting him know his appeal was denied.

Miller said he was not happy about this decision.

“I didn’t see anything wrong with the plate,” he said. “Obviously, it’s not profane or vulgar. I went on their Twitter account and voiced my displeasure. The person who runs their Twitter then reached out to me and said she was going to send it up for a second review.”

Almost two weeks ago, Miller received another letter explaining not only was the second appeal denied but that this would be the final decision.

Solidarity Week recognizes compassionate medical care

BY BRANDI WALKER The Daily Wildcat

Today kicks off Solidarity Week, a week of events hosted by the Arnold P. Gold Foundation at the Arizona Health Sciences Center campus to recognize and encourage compassionate medical care.

Rachel Manzo, student representative for Solidarity Week and member of the Gold Humanism Honors Society, said Solidarity Day was started by GHHS at the UA in 2011 and has been hosted every year on the Friday closest to Valentine’s Day. She said the U.S. Senate now recognizes National Solidarity Day for Compassionate Patient Care, and over 75 medical schools around the country also celebrate. Manzo said this year, the UA decided to expand Solidarity Day into a week of events.

“While I can practice humanistic medicine and I can hold that value to be important to me,” Manzo said, “I think its more important to hold your peers to the same standard and to encourage the wider community to practice medicine that way.”

Manzo also said Solidarity Day was started to recognize acts of kindness toward patients, such as the compassion demonstrated by Dr. Randall Friese, the trauma surgeon who took care of Gabrielle Giffords after the 2011 Tucson shooting.

The week of events and lectures is also meant to encourage members of the wider hospital community to remember the importance of compassion.

6 jumbo cupcakes

Directions

Ingredients

Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a 6-cup jumbo muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.

Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on mediumhigh speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the strawberry milk, beginning and ending with flour, until evenly mixed.

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack to cool completely.

Using a paring knife, cut a cone-shaped piece of cake out of the top of each cupcake — about the same size as the strawberries — stopping about half an inch from the bottom. Stuff with the strawberries, then cover with a small piece of the removed cake.

Make the frosting: Sift the confectioners’ sugar and cocoa powder into a medium bowl. Transfer half of the sugar-cocoa mixture to a large bowl; add the butter and one-fourth cup cream and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth. Add the remaining sugar-cocoa mixture and one-fourth cup cream and beat until fluffy. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and pipe onto the cupcakes. Top each with a strawberry half.

For the cupcakes: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder Half teaspoon salt 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature Three-fourths cup granulated sugar 2 large eggs, at room temperature 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Half cup strawberry-flavored milk, at room temperature 6 strawberries, hulled For the frosting and topping: 2 cups confectioners’ sugar Half cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature Half cup heavy cream 3 strawberries, hulled and halved lengthwise — Recipe courtesy of Food Network Magazine

“There are no further appeals. Because we extended the courtesy of a second appeal, the date that your personalized license plate is to be surrendered at any Motor Vehicle Division office has changed to February 16, 2015 at 5:00pm.”

Miller then started a social media campaign, saying that if “common sense didn’t work with them, I would try to take it viral and, in effect, shame them into making the right decision.”

Miller created a petition on change. org, and various media outlets began to pick up the story.

“It kind of blew up,” Miller said. “I didn’t expect it to get as big as it did.”

After only a couple days of media exposure, Miller received an email from ADOT stating the Motor Vehicle Division director had reviewed his appeal and decided to let him keep his plate.

Miller has not only owned this plate since 2012 but has also gotten the plate approved before he could even receive it.

“[all] personalized plate letter/ number combination choices must be approved. [ADOT] may refuse to issue or may suspend any plate that suggests a meaning that is offensive, misleading or that duplicates any existing plate or plate series.”

Since Miller can now keep his plate, he said he is grateful for all the support he received and is glad that “one individual’s sensitivities didn’t make me have to give up my plate.”

When all this came about, Miller

said he looked up the process of reporting a license plate.

“It’s a hassle; who has time to do that?” he said. “I figured they were probably just an ASU fan who thought they’d mess with me and be malicious toward me. But I won, as UA always does against ASU.”

that they think is important, preferably something they don’t already know.”

Manzo said she is excited about the “Tell Me More” project, an event that incorporates patients into Solidarity Week, where groups of medical students visit inpatient units to get to know them through a brief interview.

“Together, the patient and the student make a poster to be hung above the patient’s bed,” Manzo said, “so that everyone who enters the room is reminded of who they are as individuals.”

Whitney Mudd, a nursing junior, said she thinks the care of the individual is the biggest part of health care.

“Medicine has become so dehumanizing, and because of it, people heal slower or end up with emotional instability,” Mudd said. “Individual-based care helps people get healthier faster and, ultimately, be happier with the outcomes of their care.”

1. “I think vaccinations are extremely important and that it should be mandatory that every child gets vaccinated, because I know my little sister, for one, has a really weak immune system. So, if everyone else is vaccinated too, she won’t get sick. I think it’s really selfish and unfair when people don’t vaccinate their children because they’re putting others at risk. These are diseases that we cured 70 years ago. If we’re able to protect ourselves, then we should take that opportunity.”

Another concern of representatives was an insufficient health care program for graduate students. L’Annunziati said that the program they currently have does not significantly cover the cost of their health care.

Board Chair Mark Killian called for a 10-minute recess and requested that the group meet him in the foyer. He informed the individuals who had come to speak to the board of regents in regards to the budget cuts that the best they could do to seek changes was to contact those in the Legislature.

Killian further directed the group to speak with one of the student regents. However, this only prompted outrage from the group, who demanded that they be allowed to appoint an individual to speak for them, claiming, “We never voted for her.”

Zach Brooks, president of GPSC, informed the group of protesters that GPSC was funding a trip to the Capitol for any who wish to discuss the budget cuts with the Legislature.

“These budget cuts have been and will continue to be decided without graduate student input,” L’Annunziati said.

Lack of gun laws greatest Obama claims failure says Attorney General rising tuition due

to lavish spending

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

WASHINGTON — The inability to enact new gun safety laws after the Sandy Hook school shooting ranks as “the single failure” of his tenure, Attorney General Eric Holder said in a televised interview.

“The gun lobby simply won, you know?” Holder said in the interview shown Sunday on MSNBC, conducted to mark the end of his time as attorney general.

Holder has called his visit to the site of the December 2012 massacre of 20 first-graders and six educators the worst day he had in office. After the shootings, President Barack Obama appointed Vice President Joe Biden to lead a task force that would make recommendations for how to avoid such attacks.

The shooting spurred an effort in the Senate to enact stricter gun laws, particularly a broader requirement for background checks for gun purchases proposed by Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va, a conservative with a strong gun-rights record, and Sen. Patrick J. Toomey, R-Pa. In part because of opposition from the National Rifle Association, the ManchinToomey amendment fell five votes short of adoption, leading the Senate’s Democratic leadership to abandon the underlying bill. With Republican majorities leading both the House and the Senate, gun safety legislation is all but impossible

on the federal level.

A group of Democrats led by Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., and members of the Connecticut delegation introduced a bill last week Thursday to limit highcapacity magazines but said its passage would depend on a major public movement behind further gun control measures that has not happened.

In the interview, Holder was asked if the U.S. was “a nation of cowards” when it comes to guns, a reference to a statement he made in 2009 that the U.S. was a nation of cowards when it came

to discussing race relations.

“I don’t think we are a nation of cowards,” he said. “But I think that members of Congress need to have a little more backbone and stand up to what is a distinct minority even within, for instance, the NRA, and do the kinds of reasonable things that the American people simply want to have happen.”

Holder will step down as attorney general upon confirmation of his successor.

Obama’s nominee to replace him, Loretta Lynch, appears on track to be approved by March.

INDIANAPOLIS — President Barack Obama criticized university administrators Friday, saying they’d driven up the cost of college with high-priced extras such as gourmet food and lush fitness centers.

He also teed off on state legislators who’ve cut funding for state schools, saying they were driving up costs past any link to value and leaving graduating students loaded with debt.

“Now, the school administrators, they have a responsibility to be more efficient,” he said during a trip to Indiana. “And students and parents, we have a responsibility to be smart consumers.” He recalled that when he’d started at Occidental College in the Los Angeles area, he exercised in a basic gym and ate in a cafeteria where students called the entree “roast beast” because they didn’t know what kind of meat it was.

Today, he lamented, he’s learned firsthand about the powerful lure of perks at some campuses, as his own daughters near college age.

“Malia is now at the age where she’s starting to look at colleges,” he said. “And I said, ‘You know, these days, I hear everybody’s looking for fancy gyms and gourmet food.’”

He made the remarks about four-year universities at Ivy Tech Community College in Indianapolis, pitching his proposals to help the middle class, including a $60 billion plan to aid community college students.

“This is part of what we need to do to be more creative about how do young people get the skills they need without spending as much money or taking on as much debt,” he said.

Republicans noted that Obama had staged the event at a college whose president has criticized the Affordable Care Act. “The head of Indiana’s extensive community college system told a congressional panel … that the federal government should ease the Affordable Care Act’s requirement that large employers offer health insurance to those who work at least 30 hours a week,” said an Indianapolis Star article last year that the Republicans distributed Friday.

“Ivy Tech President Tom Snyder said the law’s requirement, which begins next year, has caused Ivy Tech to limit the classes taught by each adjunct professor so they don’t qualify for health insurance,” the article said. “That, in turn, has required the hiring of additional adjuncts to fill the gaps, which can be particularly challenging in certain subject areas.”

Equal pay: not just a problem for Democrats

BY Maddy Bynes The Daily Wildcat

C

ongress is often referred to as a “good ol’ boys club”— and for good reason. The current Congress has more women than at any other point in history, with 104, a little less than 20 percent. Women are similarly underrepresented in corporate America, with women making up only 19.2 percent of S&P 500 companies’ board positions in 2014.

There are many theories as to why women are not rising to the top of the ladder in both public and private sectors, from informal factors such as sexism and stereotypes to formal, institutional barriers such as unequal maternity and paternity treatment and, of course, unequal pay. In this year’s State of the Union address, President Barack Obama said “that’s why this Congress still needs to pass a law that makes sure a woman is paid as much as a man for doing the same work. …

It’s 2015. It’s time.” After this statement, many Republicans, including women, refused to stand or applaud.

These partisan politics aside, it is time to pass equal pay. It’s 2015, and women could still be making around 23 cents less per dollar than a man for the same work — white, able-bodied women, that is. According to the 2013 U.S. Census, Latina women make only 54 cents on the dollar. In California and Texas, the two states with the highest numbers of Latina working women, that number drops to 44 and 45 cents, respectively.

Women make up half of the country and more than half of educated workers. With half of the country systematically making less money, we do a disservice to our economy. By passing an equal pay act, families will have more money to fuel the American economy.

Fair compensation practices are not just women’s issues; they are societal issues.

“We know that women make 80 percent of the financial decisions for the household,” said Hannah Lozon, the coordinator of Social Justice Education for Residence Life, “so they are really controlling the purse strings for the economy.”

With UA students entering the labor force by the thousands each year, it is of the utmost importance to see some form of an equal pay bill pass. If equal pay were to pass, families would have more money to spend on things such as college tuition and family expenses, Lozon asserted.

But will it pass? The short answer is: not in this Congress. When the Speaker of the House can’t even clap for a reasonable solution to pay disparities, it is pretty obvious there are obstructionist politics at play. In fact, equal pay hasn’t been able to pass for years. The 113th Congress tried to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act of 2013, but it never made it past the bill introduction on the House Floor. The main opponent of the bill? Partisan politics.

If anything, partisanship will be worse in the newly seated 114th Congress, where Republicans hold a majority in both the House and the Senate. Though on an individual level many Republicans may support equal pay, as a party, they don’t.

As Betsy Palmer, an adjunct lecturer in political science, pointed out, “If President Obama said, ‘Hey, there’s a way to clean the air for free,’ they’d still oppose it.”

Since the president has no way of feasibly passing equal pay in this Congress, why would he bring it up in the State of the Union? It’s the president’s largest forum for publicly discussing the laundry list of things he wants to accomplish. “[Equal pay is] something Obama truly believes in,” Palmer said. “It is something that activates his base.”

Partisan politics should not drive this conversation. Republicans should be able to support equal pay for men and women. It’s fiscally responsible and morally fair.

It’s time to find some middle ground in Congress again. Politics are about compromising, but lately, both sides are so far apart, it’s hard to see where the middle falls. Common sense solutions like equal pay could be achieved with compromise on both sides, but it takes two to make Congress work.

Unpaid internships could likely be illegal

BY Martin Forstrom The Daily Wildcat

T

here are six little-known federal laws on the books regarding unpaid internships that, while often skirted by businesses hoping to increase profit margins, are essential for the protection of low-wage workers, the unemployed and young students eager to improve their resumes.

Various court cases have established that nonprofits are not absolved from these requirements, though they do get a bit more leeway because they can classify interns as volunteers, and providing college credit doesn’t get a company a free-pass, either. In other words, the UA and any company offering UA students an unpaid internship is bound in following these six laws.

These legal requirements are, according to the U.S. Department of Labor, that the internship must benefit the intern, not be tied to a job guarantee, be “similar to training which would be given in an educational environment,” “not displace regular employees” and not lead to any advantage or profit for the employer. This makes it incredibly difficult for any for-profit company to argue

that its internships are legal, and in fact, the Economist argued last year that “most unpaid internships in the private sector in America look decidedly iffy.”

The university has doubleddown on its efforts to increase student involvement in nonclassroom learning experiences.

Various departments and schools have joined this push — for instance, those majoring in ecology and evolutionary biology and care, health and society must complete an internship in order to graduate.

These requirements can be profoundly beneficial by providing students with hands-on learning and valuable experience for their resumes.

Plus, internships give students the best opportunities to decide whether or not their major is for them, said Celestino Fernandez, who heads the internship program for the School of Sociology. This is one of the most important aspects of the college experience.

Given the fact, though, that most internships at for-

profit firms don’t satisfy the Department of Labor’s sixpoint test, it is likely that many internships completed by UA students are illegal.

For instance, Kevin Harrington, an ecology and evolutionary biology senior, said that his internship was done under researchers who certainly derived advantage from his work. He said he did much of the same work for which graduate students received grants, wages and publication.

Although he enjoyed the work and the resume boost that it afforded him, it is clear that a university lab benefited financially from his unpaid internship. His free work also arguably “[displaced] regular employees,” unemployed or underemployed natural science graduates who would be paid minimum wage for their lab tech work.

The UA is allowing — and in some majors, requiring — its students to take internships, and some of these clearly fall outside the Department of Labor’s stipulations. Internships at for-profit companies that are more common at, say, the Eller College of Management, are in

even more danger of frequently skirting these laws.

This not only hurts students financially in the short-term, but it also hurts their job prospects in the future. A recent study by the National Association of Colleges and Employers reveals that students who took unpaid internships are no more likely than students who never did internships to receive job offers after college. Students who did paid internships, on the other hand, are almost twice as likely to receive job offers. Unpaid internships also depress postgraduation salaries. Students who did unpaid internships actually made less after college than those who didn’t do any internships at all. Clearly, unpaid internships are a joke to employers, except when they are providing them free labor.

It would behoove the UA to pay the interns it’s supposed to and to encourage paid internships over unpaid internships. Such a move would increase the average salary of its graduates, make the university more appealing and likely increase alumni donations. It’s time for the UA to follow the law and do the right thing for itself and its students.

POLICE BEAT

my!place

BY ADRIANA ESPINOSA The Daily Wildcat

Sooner or later

A University of Arizona Police Department officer was patrolling the area near Euclid Avenue and Speedway Boulevard when he saw a car drifting over the yellow lines into the left lane before swerving back to the median lane.

The officer activated his patrol lights and stopped the vehicle.

When the officer made contact with the driver, he told him that he had stopped him because of his failure to drive in one lane and asked him if he’d been drinking.

The driver did not answer the officer’s question. When the officer asked him for his license, he said that he did not have it on him and had left it at home, stating he came from Ohio, and there, he only needed to have the number on him. The officer informed him he had to have the physical license on his person.

While speaking with the driver, the officer noticed a faint smell of marijuana coming from the vehicle, and the officer asked the driver to step out.

The driver refused to exit the car and said he was going to call his mother, who was an attorney; he also said that he was going to get the officer fired from his job. A records check revealed the driver’s license was suspended.

The officer asked the driver to exit his vehicle, because he was under arrest for driving with a suspended license. The officer explained the situation to his mother, who was on speakerphone, and the driver complied and exited.

The officer then spoke to the driver’s mother one-on-one, and he told her that his car would be impounded.

The mother replied, “You guys are fucking idiots,” according to the officer.

The car was impounded, and the driver flagged down The Seasons shuttle service to take him home. Before entering the shuttle, the driver said he was going to have the officer’s badge sooner or later.

The driver was cited and released on the scene.

Right behind you

Two UAPD officers were called to a possible road rage incident on Jan. 28 around 9 p.m.

A motorcyclist had ran a stop sign on Tyndall Avenue and Fourth Street and was following closely behind a blue sedan.

The officers stopped the driver of the sedan, who was a UA student, and the motorcyclist, who was not UA-affiliated, in front of Centennial Hall.

The student said that he was driving south on Park Avenue when he noticed the motorcyclist following closely behind him.

He said he was turning right, and the motorcyclist was in his blind spot turning right as well. After they both made the right turn, the motorcyclist appeared angered and began yelling at him.

As they kept driving, the motorcyclist kicked the student’s driver’s side door, leaving a scuff mark. He said he was trying to get away from the motorcyclist but couldn’t.

The student’s story matched up with the motorcyclist’s story, and both did not wish to proceed further in judicial proceedings.

Both the student and cyclist were released.

Wildcats sweep Cowgirls

BY ROBERTO PAYNE The Daily Wildcat

The weekend started and ended with a bang for the No. 14 Arizona softball team as the Wildcats swept a three-game series against Oklahoma State at home to open the 2015 season.

Arizona (3-0) started the weekend by winning 12-2 in a run-ruled victory on Friday and ended by winning a dramatic extra innings game 4-3 in the bottom of the eighth inning.

Pinch hitter Ashleigh Hughes remained on the bench for the entirety of the game before coming up to pinch hit in the bottom of the eighth inning with two on and two outs. The freshman quickly saw two strikes cross the plate, and Arizona head coach Mike Candrea called time.

Candrea said Oklahoma State was pitching away from the lefty Hughes, and he told her to “swing away.”

Hughes smacked a two-run triple to deep left field on Arizona’s final strike and was mobbed by teammates after the winning run came in.

“I just, I can’t — the moment is unreal,” Hughes said. “The team fought to the end, and I couldn’t have

ASU loss UA defeats Stanford may cost for first time since ’04 Arizona

BY EZRA AMACHER The Daily Wildcat

Candice Warthen had never experienced a win over powerhouse Stanford in her four years at Arizona. In fact, no Arizona team had beaten the Cardinal since 2004.

That all changed on Sunday when Warthen hit a go-ahead jumper with three seconds remaining in Arizona women’s basketball’s 60-57 victory over No. 12 Stanford in McKale Center. It was the UA’s first win over a ranked opponent this season.

Down one with eight seconds left, Arizona inbounded the ball to Warthen. The senior point guard dribbled into the lane before letting go of a floater that swished through the net.

Stanford turned the ball over on the ensuing possession, and Warthen sealed the game with two free throws. The Wildcats jumped and hugged in celebration, joined by a few students who rushed the court.

The win moved the Wildcats to 9-14 overall and 2-10 in Pac12 Conference play.

“This is a great win for us,” Warthen said. “For me, it’s also frustrating, because we can play with the teams in the Pac-12. We can play with the best of them.”

While Warthen led the team with 19 points and nine rebounds, Breanna Workman was just as vital, scoring 17 points on 8-13 attempts. Workman, at 6-foot-1, continuously attacked the Cardinal inside, leading Arizona to a 26-20 advantage on points in the paint. “[Workman] had a huge game against Stanford [in Palo Alto],

25 percent in the first half and trailed 30-18 at halftime.

The UA made some adjustments on both sides of the ball out of the locker room and incrementally cut into the deficit.

EMPE — More than just Arizona basketball’s pride took a beating in the shocking 81-78 defeat to ASU on Saturday.

The No. 6 Wildcats (20-3, 8-2 Pac-12 Conference) may have lost the chance to get the No. 1 seed in the West.

On Saturday, for the third time this season, Arizona men’s basketball lost to a team it should have beat handily. The loss probably won’t cost the Wildcats the Pac-12 championship, as they are tied with Utah, but it could have far-reaching consequences.

Arizona was No. 4 in the RPI and ASU was 115th heading into Saturday’s game.

The Wildcats’ RPI dropped to sixth, and ASU’s rose to 96th on Sunday, but the Sun Devils (12-11, 4-6) are unlikely to rise any further.

ASU figures to go 3-5, at best, to close out the regular season. Its upset of UA was more of a fluke. ASU head coach Herb Sendek is 9-10 against the UA and 5-9 against his former “Padawan,” Arizona head coach Sean Miller.

Sendek can get the Sun Devils up to play their archrivals, but like the Phoenix weather, ASU’s RPI will be back in the triple digits soon.

The sting from the ASU loss is that the Wildcats now have three bad losses: ASU, Oregon State (RPI No. 78) and UNLV (RPI No. 99). The loss also hurts their “last 12 games” data. Now, even if the Wildcats win all their remaining games, they can still only finish the season 11-1 in their last 12 games.

Arizona still has a pretty solid record

Weekend success for tennis

BY STEVIE KATZ

The Daily Wildcat

Arizona’s men’s and women’s tennis teams both participated over the weekend. The men’s team has been on a hot streak lately by consistently winning matches.

The team went head to head with NAU on Friday and won all six of its singles matches and all three of its doubles matches.

Sumeet Shinde, one of the two seniors on the team, improved upon both his doubles and single

records over the weekend.

“I am getting better; I feel it every match,” Shinde said. “I am getting better, and my confidence is going high.”

Shinde said his mentality for each game has stayed the same throughout because he takes it one match at a time.

His teammate Jason Jaruvang said he feels great about how he is currently playing. According to Jaruvang, his confidence comes from keeping a solid mentality throughout the weekend until he finishes all of the matches.

The team played Utah State on Sunday where two teams tied 3-3 in singles, but UA took the win in doubles 2-0.

Arizona men’s tennis head coach Tad Berkowitz said he enjoyed seeing how all of his players trust each other out on the court, even though tennis is an individual sport. “[In] college tennis, we play as a team, and I really feel the good team chemistry from our guys right now,” Berkowitz said.

“They are pulling for each other.

They trust each other. They are

supporting each other, and I think that makes the guys when they go on their individual courts feel comfortable that they can go out there and play their match knowing that their teammates are getting it down for them as well.”

The women’s tennis team played Nevada on Friday, and Inge Hendrikx completed her singles matches in two sets, 6-0 and 6-0.

“In the beginning, it was kind of close, but then I was like, you just need to go for it,” Hendrikx

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Legendary UNC coach Dean Smith dies

BY ROBERTO PAYNE The Daily Wildcat

The college basketball world found out early Sunday morning that a legend was lost. North Carolina coaching great Dean Smith passed away Saturday evening in his home at the age of 83.

“Coach Dean Smith passed away peacefully the evening of [Feb.] 7 at his home in Chapel Hill, and surrounded by his wife and five children,” the Smith family said in a statement.

“We are grateful for all the thoughts and prayers, and appreciate the continued respect for our privacy as arrangements are made available to the public. Thank you.”

Smith coached the Tar Heels for 36 years from 1961-97 to a 879-254 (.776 win

percentage) record during his time at the helm of the UNC program. Smith won two national championships at UNC (1982 and 1993), made 11 Final Four appearances, coached the U.S. national team to a gold medal at the 1976 Olympic Summer Games and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1983.

Smith had the most wins of any coach in men’s Division I history at the time of his retirement.

Smith revolutionized the game with his four corners offense, which sparked the implementation of the shot clock at the collegiate level and started several trends such as Senior Day, pointing to a teammate after an assist and players motioning to the bench when tired. Not to mention Smith was a direct

descendant of James Naismith, the creator of basketball.

Notable players Smith coached include Michael Jordan, James Worthy, Bob McAdoo, Brad Daugherty, Kenny Smith, Walter Davis, Vince Carter and Antawn Jamison.

Jordan, who is arguably the greatest NBA player ever, released a statement on Sunday speaking on Smith’s importance to his life and playing career.

“Other than my parents, no one had a bigger influence on my life than coach Smith,” Jordan said. “He was more than a coach — he was my mentor, my teacher, my second father. Coach was always there for me whenever I needed him, and I loved him for it.”

In addition to the numerous notable players he coached, Smith has a sizeable coaching

tree that includes Larry Brown, George Karl, Scott Cherry and current UNC head coach Roy Williams.

Williams, who spent 10 years as an assistant coach for Smith, also released a statement highlighting Smith’s significance to his coaching style and outlook on life.

“I’d like to say on behalf of all our players and coaches, past and present, that Dean Smith was the perfect picture of what a college basketball coach should have been,” Williams said. “We love him, and we will miss him.”

It is safe to say the college basketball world lost a great one in Dean Smith.

Arizona fell behind 57-50 with 1:17 left after momentarily grabbing the lead. That’s when the Wildcats’ clutch gene came into effect — first a 3-pointer by Charise Holloway and then a jumper from Warthen with 38 seconds to go.

Stanford missed the front end of a one-and-one, and Warthen drew contact on the other end to earn a trip to the charity stripe. She made the first and missed the second, but Stanford dribbled the ball out of bounds, giving the possession back to Arizona.

That mistake set up Warthen’s game-winner.

The Wildcats fell 65-46 to Cal on Friday night in a contest that was never close from the beginning.

Behind a trio of 3-pointers, the Bears took a 17-8 lead midway through the first half, and that margin grew to 33-16 by halftime.

Arizona got off to an ice-cold start from the field, making just three of its first 19 attempts, and committed 13 first-half turnovers.

The Wildcats heated up in the second half, but sloppy play and lack of interior defense allowed Cal to maintain a comfortable distance down the stretch. The lead grew to as many as 26 points with under six minutes to go.

UA forward LaBrittney Jones contributed 13 points and seven rebounds, and Warthen led the team in scoring with 17 points.

Warthen was honored as the program’s 18th 1,000-point scorer before the game.

“That’s a huge accomplishment,” Warthen said. “Not many people can do that, and I’m just thankful and blessed to have these tremendous offensive abilities.”

Two days later, Warthen scored some of the biggest points of her career and further sealed her legacy in the program.

and good resume; like the high RPI, 25th rated strength of schedule, 3-0 record vs. the RPI top 25, 4-0 record vs. the RPI top 50 and 10-3 mark against the RPI top 100. The loss, however, drops its road record to 4-3 and bad losses as the thing holding them back.

The Wildcats probably need to win out to get a chance to take the No. 1 seed in the West.

RPI No. 8 Gonzaga is the consensus No. 1 seed in the West, according to current projections. Their toughest remaining game is RPI No. 62 Saint Mary’s. The Zags have won or shared 14 of the last 15 West Coast Conference regular season championships.

The Bulldogs own the WCC; they’re not losing any time soon.

Arizona’s hope to overcome Gonzaga and get the top seed in the West, which would mean playing the regionals in friendly Los Angeles, Calif., rather than a place like Houston, Texas, may be gone.

The Wildcats seem destined to be a two seed (at best), which could mean being shipped out to a place like Cleveland, Ohio, or Syracuse, N.Y., for the regionals — if they get there.

Except for a few blowouts, Arizona tends to play to the level of their competition. Constantly overlooking opponents, the Wildcats do not look like a team that has three juniors and a senior in the top six of its rotation.

The Wildcats will probably regroup like they did after their first two losses, where they beat ASU 73-49 after their luck ran out in Las Vegas, Nev., and then won six in a row after they were embarrassed by Oregon State. The damage, however, was already done in Tempe.

The formula is simple: Don’t lose to bad teams like ASU.

said. “So, I tried to move my feet more and step into the ball, and that worked really well, and I took that into singles, and that worked out pretty good.”

Having matches postponed last week did not show in Hendrikx’s game as she dominated in her singles match.

“I was a little worried, because we didn’t play matches for a long time, but I don’t know — I felt I was ready to go,” Hendrikx said.

“I was more excited, since it was a while since we didn’t play.”

The UA matched up against Sacramento State on Sunday.

Having played doubles on Friday showed in their game on Sunday, as the Wildcats won 7-0.

“I think we did a great job with doubles today,” head coach Vicky Maes said. “We did a really good job, we did a much better job with the basics — and it put the opposing team a little on edge, and that’s all we needed.”

done it without the support and the cheers. The whole team was crazy.”

While Hughes was the hero, the Arizona pitching staff was the reason she even got a shot to win the game. Pitchers Nancy Bowling, Siera Phillips and Trish Parks combined to hold the Cowgirls to five hits over eight innings.

Parks, a freshman, pitched four innings, secured her second win in the team’s first three games and scored the game-tying run in the eighth inning.

Parks carried over the momentum gained during her complete game shutout on Saturday.

The freshman from Chino, Calif., struck out just three but only put three Cowgirls on base and

retired 18 of the first 19 batters she faced during the second game of the three-game series.

Not to mention she helped herself at the dish by driving in two of Arizona’s five runs on the day.

Candrea said the freshmen have made huge impacts already and increased the team’s depth this season.

“We have a lot of flexibility in some of the things that we can do this year,” Candrea said. “That’s because of what Mandie [Perez], [Chelsea] Suitos, and then in centerfield with Eva [Watson], [Alexis] Dotson and Ashleigh Hughes — you got lots of versatility.”

That versatility was on display during the 12-2 Arizona victory in the season-opener on Friday night. The Wildcats jumped out with six runs in each of the second and third innings and never looked back.

Much to the dismay of the Cowgirls, Parks, Katiyana Mauga and Kellie Fox all went yard during those two innings and chased Oklahoma State starter Brandi Needham from the game after the third inning.

In the same game, Parks hit a three-run homer in her first collegiate at-bat and struck out the first batter she faced while pitching. The all-around performance highlighted by Parks ended the first game of the season in just 1:43 of real time.

After that victory, Parks said she never could have imagined an opening day like that.

“For my first hit in college, I probably wouldn’t have thought that, but it felt really good,” Parks said.

How often do condoms break?

Not very often when they’re stored and used correctly. If a condom does break, it’s likely because the condom is expired, has been punctured, or space was not left at the tip of the condom. If this happens, emergency contraception is available at the Campus Health Pharmacy for $35. Plan B is 75-89% effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within hours (up to 72 hours) of unprotected sex.

What is the purpose of flavored condoms?

3 Avoid close contact

—

No. Using two condoms (either both male condoms, both female condoms, or a male and a female condom together) actually increases the risk of ripping or tearing the condom. Use just one condom each time you have sex and your risk of STIs (sexually transmitted infections) and pregnancy will decrease significantly.

2 Avoid touching your eyes,

nose, or mouth since germs are often spread this way.

MILK STOUT AND COOKIES

AMC is back and badder than ever

This Sunday returned two AMC fan-favorite series: “The Walking Dead” and “Breaking Bad” spin-off “Better Call Saul.” “The Walking Dead” aired its mid-season premiere following the shocking loss of one of the show’s main characters. Following that devastating twist was the promise of a total shift in the show, one that executive producer Robert Kirkman guaranteed would be “brutal.”

As for “Better Call Saul,” the comic relief of long-departed “Breaking Bad” puts crackpot lawyer Saul Goodman — who we learn is actually Jimmy McGill — in the spotlight.

The show that started off as a joke (much like Goodman’s character in the original series) aired part one of the premiere Sunday night, with part two airing today at 10 p.m., which will become its regular time slot for the rest of the season.

Bruce Jenner safe after fatal collision

Bruce Jenner, who has been at the center of the paparazzi’s attention after rumors that he has been transitioning into a woman, was involved in a four-car crash Sunday afternoon.

The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star and Olympic athlete was uninjured but was reportedly being followed by as many as five paparazzi while he was driving.

A woman died in the crash, and five other people were injured. The investigation into the incident includes looking into Jenner’s cellphone records to see if he was using his phone at the time of the crash, as well as if the paparazzi’s involvement could have contributed to the crash.

More good news for Netflix

Netflix made several big announcements over the weekend regarding upcoming shows the online streaming service will be premiering soon. Netflix is developing a live-action “Legend of Zelda” series based off of the popular classic video game. The show is described as being a familyfriendly “Game of Thrones.”

The streaming service also premiered its first trailer for “Daredevil,” the first of its four Marvel shows coming to Netflix.

It was also announced that Baz Luhrmann, the famous director for movies such as “The Great Gatsby” and “Romeo + Juliet,” will be creating his first TV show that will be streamed on Netflix.

The series, called “The Get Down,” is a musical set in New York City during the ’70s and will stream 13 episodes in 2016.

Gimme that Grammy

The 57th Annual Grammy Awards began and ended with charming newcomer Sam Smith. He was awarded the accolades for Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album at the beginning of the show in-between oddly timed performances from AC/DC and Madonna.

Beyoncé and Jay Z took home two awards for “Drunk in Love,” and Pharrell Williams also took home two awards — Best Pop Solo Performance and Best Urban Contemporary Album — while drawing attention to the Black Lives Matter movement during his dark performance of “Happy.”

The politically-charged sentiments continued throughout the evening, with a PSA from President Barack Obama about domestic violence followed by a stripped-down performance

by Katy Perry, a complete 180 from her technicolor, shark-filled Super Bowl XLIX halftime performance.

Though it felt more like a concert than an awards show with the staggering amount of performances, the Grammys ended awarding Smith both Song of the Year with Record of the Year, sending the British singer home with four of the largest awards of the night.

FOUR GIRL Scout cookies lean against their complementary beer flights. Tap & Bottle hosted a cookie and beer pairing on Sunday in honor of Girl Scout cookie season.

A crowded Tap & Bottle hosted a pairing party on Sunday where four of the most recognizable Girl Scout cookies were complemented with craft beer

BY ALEX GUYTON

The Daily Wildcat

On Sunday, Tap & Bottle celebrated National Girl Scout Cookie Day by hosting a pairing party of each of the famous Girl Scout cookies with a different craft beer.

The event is a result of the combined efforts of Rebecca Safford, who owns the local craft beer and wine tasting room with her husband, and Sarah Ritchie, who co-founded the Tucson chapter of Girls Pint Out with her friend, Victora Parridgen.

Girls Pint Out is a national nonprofit focusing on craft beer and the women that are passionate about it.

Ritchie, friends with Safford through the beer community, approached her to do an event similar to those which she had seen done before.

“I’d read about other states doing something similar where people had done craft beer pairings with Girl Scout cookies before, and the Girl Scouts of Southern Arizona do a cocktail and cookie pairing event,” Ritchie said.

Three of Ritchie’s ardent supporters in Girls Pint Out are also staff members of Girl Scouts of Southern Arizona and used their knowledge to help Ritchie.

Prior to Sunday, over 300 people had RSVP’ed on Facebook that they were “going” to the event. The potential for such a large attendance prompted the hosts to extend the event for three hours, ending at 6 p.m.

Nevertheless, a few minutes prior to the official start at 3 p.m., Tap & Bottle was already filling

up. Within half an hour, the line to purchase beer snaked into the back corner of the room, and elbowroom was at a premium. Safford, who manned the cookie handout along with Ritchie and Parridgen, commented that she called in two additional employees to come and help with the deluge of craft beer and cookie enthusiasts.

Four of the most familiar, as well as best-selling, names in Girl Scout cookies were paired with four different craft beers, one of which was actually brewed locally.

Samoas, the striped caramel and toasted coconut-covered cookie, were paired with Orabelle, a Belgian-style tripel ale from Great Divide Brewing. The crispy, chocolate-covered peanut butter Tagalongs were matched with Camp Robber Coffee Porter from Big Sky Brewing. The traditional shortbread Trefoils, so named after the iconic Girl Scouts logo that the cookie takes its shape from, were coupled with Grapefruit Sculpin, a tart Indian Pale Ale. Last, but certainly not least, is the Thin Mint, which had the honor of being put together with the Girls Pint Stout, the only beer of the four brewed

by Tucson Girls Pint Out. It is a Russian Imperial Stout with chocolate and Munich malts that is run through a Randall of mint and cocoa nibs.

“Thin Mints are the best cookie on Earth,” Ritchie said.

Two of the many people packed in were David and Vanessa Arellano. Already familiar fans of the variety and ambience of Tap & Bottle, it was a nobrainer for the husband and wife to come out.

“When we heard about this, we were like,

‘It’s awesome, it’s a good cause, good beer, and Tap & Bottle is awesome,’” David Arellano said. “‘Everything’s awesome, so we’re going to go.’”

The Arellanos had a flight of all four beers.

Customers could either choose each beer individually or opt for smaller flights of all four.

David Arellano had already tried the stout and Thin Mint combination.

“I think any dark beer with a Thin Mint would be good at this point,” David Arellano said. “It was pretty good. I liked it.”

One store front down from Tap & Bottle, outside of the noisy, shoulder-to-shoulder confines is a lone stand, run by a young Girl Scout Daisy whose prime real estate may very well may have ended up making her the most profitable scout in Tucson for the day. Piper, along with her father Dan Gibson, had provided 31 boxes thus far for the beer pairing, and was selling additional boxes to anyone else with a craving.

“People have been really generous and kind out here, too,” Gibson said. “Tap and Bottle is a very community-oriented place, so this kind of works itself out with that, too.”

Between inside and the stand outside, Piper could sell approximately 100 boxes. It might come as no surprise as to which flavor will be the best seller.

“Hands down, Thin Mints,” Gibson said.

Art advocates for Alzheimer’s

BY ANNA MAE LUDLUM The Daily Wildcat

Jacob bowed on one knee waiting for the angel to bless him as an observant yellow-green chicken appeared to float weightlessly overhead. Why is there a floating chicken, you might ask? This question kick-started Friday morning’s art therapy session.

The New York-based model of Memories in the Making made its way to Arizona, providing an outlet for transparency and support for those within the Alzheimer’s disease and dementia community.

Marc Chagall’s 1967 lithograph of “The Fight of Jacob and the Angel,” currently an exhibit at The Tucson Museum of Art, was viewed by the participants from the program, coordinated by the Desert Southwest Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.

Chagall’s painting shows the angel’s arm crooked above Jacob’s head. Similarly, each caregiver rested their hands on the shoulders of their loved one.

The image of the floating chicken triggered laughter echoing in the early hours of the museum when many recalled childhood memories of growing up on ranches and learning to slaughter chickens — sometimes resulting in bleakly humorous, failed attempts.

Kelly Raach, regional director of the Alzheimer’s Association in Tucson said the organization aims to advocate for an initiative to provide research and resources for those diagnosed with Alzheimers disease, as well as their caregivers.

Alzheimer’s disease starts in the hippocampus, located in the temporal lobes of the brain, progressively attacking different areas and shutting down the individual’s body.

“Some people may die from other complications like pneumonia or failure to thrive,” Raach said, “but the reality is their disease causes them to progress to that point.”

EMILY GAUCI /THE DAILY WILDCAT

A MEMBER OF the Alzheimer’s Association displays a piece of art made at the Memories in the Making workshop at the Tucson Museum of Art on Friday. The art is supposed to reflect memories the members have and to help trigger past memories.

Mary Pittinger, a Tucson Museum of Art volunteer, said she hopes the sense of community provided by MIM will draw others out of living in secrecy and shadows due to social stigmas surrounding the disease.

“Sometimes, people want to hide it or are ashamed of it,” Pittinger said.

This reaction can quickly turn caregiving into isolation, as individuals living with the disease tend to withdraw from social events that create feelings of anxiety and unease.

The MIM program creates new ways for families with loved ones living with Alzheimer’s disease to communicate and express themselves in safe settings.

“If you look around this room, everyone is talking with each other and laughing and are engaged in a

new way,” Raach said.

Pittinger worked in memory care units, seeing firsthand the benefits of art and social interaction.

Some individuals experience great difficulty in putting sentences together, but when given a microphone and headphones with music playing, they can sing along.

Wayne Collins sat beside his wife, Peggy Collins, as they completed a lithograph-inspired project created by artist Susan Kay Johnson. Wayne Collins’ deep voice described a rich life filled with stories of joining the Coast Guard and working as a BBC stringer in the South Pacific; his career as the face of broadcast news in post World War II Honolulu; and working with Edward R. Murrow before retiring from the UA’s Environmental Research Lab.

Peggy Collins proudly finished each story her husband began telling at his request. As Peggy Collins described how beneficial MIM is for caregivers, Wayne Collins interjected and said he gets to attend when he behaves. The corner of his mouth twitched up in a smile, and Peggy Collins shook her head, smiling.

Chagall’s painting of Jacob and the Angel wresting isn’t so dissimilar with the daily battle to find balance in one’s life, a constant search for relief after a life-changing diagnosis.

Each person living with the disease in attendance had some battling through this journey with them and an organization advocating on their behalf.
