UAPD elaborates on UAlert system

BY CHASTITY LASKEY The Daily Wildcat

Fossils found indicate new dinosaurs, p. A6

.

UA officials responded to students questioning the UAlert system after a lack of alerts sent after the case of a shooting that occurred just off campus on Feb. 23.

In his response, the University of Arizona Police Department Chief of Police explained why there was a lack of UAlerts and how his

team is constantly evaluating the communication with the campus and its students.

UAPD Chief Brian Seastone explained that the UAlert system is set up to alert the campus of critical events that have an effect on the university.

He said if there is an immediate ongoing threat to the institution or campus, like a robbery or active shooter, a UAPD command staff member will send out an alert

after the incident is confirmed and there is enough critical information confirmed by a police supervisor.

Seastone said there are around 56,000 people who currently receive UAlerts, most of whom are UA faculty, students and staff.

Kaitlyn Estrada, an education freshman, said she’s only received alerts this year about a gas leak and a power outage, but would have liked to have received an

alert last week about the shooting.

“I understand why they are important, but I feel like a power outage is not as vital to our safety as a shooting near the school or a body found on campus,” Estrada said. “It’s happening on our campus and we don’t know what’s going on, which is kind of the point of the alerts.”

UA women want to empower, inspire through new website

BY LAUREN RENTERIA The Daily Wildcat

Two UA students hope to make a change through their new website centered around women’s empowerment.

Idara Ekpoh, a psychology senior, and Raissa Formelu, an epidemiology graduate student, together created woomanhood. com, in order to create a space where women can be inspired by other women and learn to appreciate each other.

They wanted to create a space where women from different socioeconomic statuses, ethnic groups and political ideologies could feel free to express their personal perspectives.

The women brainstormed the idea for the site last October, and their brainchild came to fruition in mid-November 2015. Since the beginning of February 2016, the two have counted over 5,000 views to their site.

Ekpoh, a first generation Nigerian-American and Formelu, a first generation CameroonianAmerican, experienced the differing culture of their roots mixed with that of the U.S., which was one component that drove them to create the site.

“In terms of West African culture, it’s very male dominated,” Formelu said. “For me, I come from a family that is West African, but my parents are also divorced. ... So, my perspective of what

“A lot of what it is, is thinking that you need to be a specific kind of way, for specific people,” Ekpoh said.

A goal of their site is to acknowledge and appreciate the unique nature of every woman’s experience and background.

On the site, a user can browse a section that features women that have inspired the founders, including some from the UA campus, and users are now able to provide posts for the website as contributors.

Formelu and Ekpoh wanted to promote empowerment for all women, but also have a focus on black women and women of color.

The duo started a threepart video series called “Black Herstory.” The founders made the video series in order to shed light on the black female figures in history, to further explain that black women and women of color are capable of change and to break negative connotations associated with these women.

“When you identify as a minority and as a woman, those are two groups that are already being oppressed,” Ekpoh said. “When you’re a minority woman ... you have to work so much harder just to prove that you are not one of the negative stereotypes.”

Both founders are proud to call their site all-inclusive. Ekpoh and Formelu strive for the online forum to be a place for women of all ethnic groups and experiences

a woman is, from when I was growing up to where it is right now, has shifted because of things that have happened along the way.”

Even within the U.S., both Ekpoh and Formelu see problems that can be fixed. Ekpoh strongly believes that limitations for women are not exclusive to traditionally founded countries, and that they are very alive in the Western world.

“America is not immune to gender discrimination,” Formelu said. “The extremity of the problems are obviously not as big, but there are problems.”

Ekpoh added that everyone’s situation is unique, and gender discrimination may be a problem that one faces, while another may not.

“People say, ‘oh you live in this area, you shouldn’t have these issues.’ Those kinds of comments upset me because you do not know what kind of situations people are in, where they come from and what they deal with on the daily,” Ekpoh said.

The women have noticed that young girls experience pressure to grow up and pretend to be someone other than themselves.

“There’s a push to grow up faster,” Formelu said. “Childhood is such a crucial part of becoming a woman.”

Ekpoh thinks that girls are taught at a young age to strive for the attention of others.

Health Corner has got you covered for your weekend party aftermath

BY AKSHAY SYAL

The Daily Wildcat

Hangovers.

The toxic feeling after a night of heavy drinking that often consists of a headache, dizziness and a sense of regret, ultimately leaving one wondering if there is a cure to relieve these acute symptoms.

While the only way to completely avoid getting a hangover is to not drink, there are many research-backed methods used to ease symptoms. In fact, many scientists have come up with ways to alleviate a hangover, such as consuming Sprite or even cactus extract.

Before we dive into how to reduce the effects of a hangover, let’s take a look at the mechanism by which alcohol is metabolized in the body.

How do bodies process alcohol?

Essentially, anywhere from 2-8 percent of alcohol consumed is lost through urine, sweat or even through breathing—this is where breathalyzers come in.

The remaining 92-98 percent is metabolized in the body, with 20 percent of that being absorbed through the stomach, and 80 percent absorbed through the small intestine.

Almost instantly, however, the alcohol reaches your brain and begins acting as a depressant. In fact, alcohol is a potent neurotoxin and heavy alcohol consumption has shown to have a direct correlation with brain damage.

The human body’s primary defense against alcohol is the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase, or ADH. ADH is responsible for the oxidation of ethanol—the first step in eliminating alcohol from the body. In fact, studies have shown that men have a higher level of ADH in the body, allowing for faster alcohol metabolism.

How can metabolism be increased in order to get quicker hangover relief? To find out, here are some methods scientists suggest you try out.

Sprite Researchers at Sun Yat-Sen University in Guangzhou, China, analyzed the effects of over 57 drinks on hangover duration. They found that Sprite, in particular, was extremely effective at speeding up the breakdown of alcohol byproducts from the body, reducing the duration of hangover symptoms.

Asparagus A study published in Journal of Food Science from 2009 found that consumption of asparagus actually improved the efficiency of two enzymes involved in alcohol breakdown, ridding the body of alcohol

more quickly. Additionally, they discovered that asparagus actually has protective effects on the liver from the toxicity of alcohol.

BINGE FACTS

Coffee and Painkillers A study published in 2011 led by Michael Oshinsky discovered that coffee and nonsteriodal anti-inflammatory drugs blocked hangover-associated headaches in rats. Oshinsky and his team induced hangovers in rats and infused them with either caffeine or an NSAID, which they found relieved their headaches.

A Hearty Meal One of the most important things to do both before and after a night out is to eat.

In fact, if ingested on an empty stomach, alcohol can affect the brain in as little as one minute. Some research has even shown that drinking on a full stomach will help keep blood at a lower blood alcohol content level.

Alcohol, however, can lead to a condition known as hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, causing symptoms such as dizziness or light-headedness. As a result, consuming a big breakfast in the morning will cause blood sugar to rise back to normal, aiding in alleviation of a hangover.

Prickly Pear Cactus Extract A study conducted by Dr. Jeff Weise of Tulane University discovered that prickly pear cactus extract, when consumed prior to alcohol, reduced hangover symptoms by 50 percent. Specifically, the subjects who consumed the extract experienced reduced nausea, dry mouth and a better appetite.

Before you go searching for a prickly pear cactus nearby, note that health food stores commonly stock this supplement.

Skip the whiskey, or all darks for that matter A study conducted in 2009 by researchers at Brown University discovered that darker liquors, such as bourbon and whiskey, tend to worsen the pain associated with hangovers.

Darker liquors contain more toxic, natural chemicals known as congeners, which may cause us to get sicker the day after drinking.

Specifically, the study found that bourbon contained 37 times more congeners than vodka. It’s important to note that while adhering to lighter colored liquor won’t completely rid you of a hangover, it will certainly help ease some of the symptoms in comparison to dark liquor.

48%

of college drinkers report that drinking to get drunk is an important reason to drink

Peak blood alcohol levels occur 40-60 minutes after ingestion when a stomach is empty A daily glass of wine will add 10 pounds per year Individual with more muscle will experience less of an effect of alcohol Premenstrual hormonal changes increase blood alcohol content faster Information from Center for Science in the Public Interest and Brad21.org

UA students talk UAlerts system In response to the lack of alerts sent in the event of a shooting near campus, what do you think about the system and the way it handled the incident?

Community CHATTER.

“If something happens on campus, or around it, I think the students should be able to get it right away and know what’s happening ... maybe more productivity and just [staying] on top of things.”

— Jake Taylor, a computer science freshman.

“I had to hear about the shooting from someone in my sorority who had saw something on Facebook about it, and I was waiting for the university to say something about it because it was right across the street.

I was scared because I didn’t know what was happening, and I think that they should have at least said something about that because they got to us right away about a power outage [gas leak] and I still haven’t heard anything from the university.”

— Tori Hall, a music education freshman.

UAlerts from page 1

Hubble, a history freshman, said that he’s not signed up for the UAlerts because he doesn’t think they matter.

Hubble said he thinks he probably will never sign up for it because he receives information through friends, and thinks a UAlert was unnecessary in last week’s incident because it did not pose a safety concern for students.

Seastone said acts that do not pose a threat to campus, like a body found on campus, typically do not need a campuswide alert.

“We had a pretty good idea pretty quickly that it was an individual act and did not pose an immediate threat,” Seastone said. “If we had thought it was the case of homicide or

“They [the UA] probably should have been more on the fact about the shooting. The gas leak is important, but that’s more of an issue at the time—a shooting is a lot more serious. Have more of an eye out for the serious matters and not just the stuff that can pop up and not be huge issue.”

— Austin Kellie, a pre-business sophomore.

something along those lines, of course we would have sent out an alert.”

In regard to the shooting on Feb. 23, Seastone said it was difficult trying to get exact details, and based on the information they were given at the time, there was not a threat to the institution itself.

He said that at the time of the incident, UAPD knew the suspects had left the area, were not headed toward campus and had an idea the shooting was in a very specific targeted area.

“Does that mean that we could not have put one out?” Seastone said. “Yes, we could have. But again, we weren’t really sure what information we could give, other than there’s something going on in this area, stay away.”

Melissa Vito, senior vice president for student affairs and enrollment management and senior vice provost for academic initiatives and student success, is the chair

“It’s almost like insinuating panic; I think you should be aware about what’s going on. I mean, nothing happened, but if it’s an alert system, you might want to actually alert people, right?”

— Fred Rauh, a pre-physiology freshman.

for the UA Campus Emergency Response Team, a program responsible for managing emergency situations.

She described CERT as a team to assess policies and practices used across campus, as well as a team that tries to anticipate and prepare for issues.

For example, the team tries to anticipate and prepare for any issues if there are any big sporting events on campus, or prepare for what the UA would do in a campus-wide power outage.

Vito said UAlert is an important way to communicate to the whole campus community during an emergency, but it isn’t the only way.

UAlert is controlled by the UAPD because it is the best entity to asses risk or impact to the campus community in a quick manner, according to Vito.

Seastone said if there was a shooting on campus, an alert would be sent out unless it

“I believe that they should inform students during something serious that happens around campus or during an hour where students are mostly on campus. I believe that they should provide more information on important matters instead of gas leaks. Gas leaks are also important, but shootings are much more life threatening. For them to be more rapid in informing us, that would be my suggestion.”

— Ciana Ortiz, a psychology major.

was an act of suicide or his team is sure there is no immediate threat.

He said the team evaluates each situation individually debriefs about what they could do better after every incident.

Vito said the team continually assesses its protocol and there is already talk about last week’s shooting.

While the goal is to get accurate information out as quickly as possible to students, Vito wants to make sure to not overuse UAlerts in a way that people would begin to pay little attention to them.

Seastone said they listen to parents’ and students’ concerns and hope to look back and learn from this experience.

“We always try to do things better,” Seastone said. “We’re going to look at this one, and we already are.”

BY LAUREL RIESCH The Daily Wildcat

They had that good good On Feb. 23, the University of Arizona Police Department responded to a 911 hang up call from the Gould-Simpson building.

When approaching, a UAPD officer observed four men speaking loudly at a table.

One of them had an open can of beer. The UAPD officer then had the men sit at a bench and collected identification.

One of the men was identified by an Arizona driver’s license. Dispatch advised that the man had an outstanding warrant issued by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.

The man said he was aware he had a warrant as he had been contacted by his brother about police officers showing up at their home about the warrant. The man said he was in contact with an attorney to have the warrant squashed as he had not been served with any notice.

While speaking with the man, dispatch advised the warrant was confirmed. The man was placed in handcuffs and under arrest for the warrant.

As the officer began to search the man, he warned the officer that he had a bag of marijuana in his pocket.

The officer searched the man’s right pocket and pulled out a bag from his pocket, which contained a small amount of marijuana. The man stated he had got it from a friend who asked him to dispose of it. He was transported to the Pima County Jail.

University Emergency Medical Services and the Tucson Fire Department were already on the scene evaluating a resident. A resident assistant identified the male as an 18-year-old UA student.

UAPD dispatch advised that the resident had previously been diverted for minor in possession.

The resident’s right knee was bloody, and he had glassy and bloodshot eyes. He smelled like alcohol and was vomiting in a trash can.

The UAPD officer overheard the resident tell TFD that he had drank “Fleischmann’s.” The RA told the UAPD officer that an Uber driver dropped the resident off in the lobby and desk staff called TFD upon seeing his bloody knee.

The RA added that the resident told her he had been at a student’s apartment and another male had kicked the resident in the knee.

TFD medically cleared the resident, but he was unable to stand unaided.

TFD transported resident to Banner - Health University Medical Center. While the resident was in the hospital’s hallway, he agreed to speak with an officer.

He said he drank vodka at an unknown location and said he hurt his knee when he tripped in a pothole. The officer cited and released the resident on a charge of minor in possession.

Unclassified

THERE ARE NEW DINOS A fossil bed found in Idaho contained fossils of previously undocumented dinosaurs nearly 95-million-years old

BY RENEE CONWAY The Daily Wildcat

Paleontologists at Montana State University recently discovered fossil evidence in Idaho that denotes new types of dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous Period.

The fossil evidence of the unidentified dinosaurs—which dates back to 95 million years ago—includes a pair of fossilized eggs from a large dinosaur called oviraptorosaur, teeth from a relative of the Tyrannosaurus rex, a small tyrannosauroid, teeth from a raptor and from an unidentified carnivorous dinosaur, and vertebrae from a smaller carnivorous dinosaur.

L.J. Krumenacker, paleontologist and MSU Earth sciences graduate student, was part of the team of paleontologists who discovered the fossils.

“The main problem is dinosaurs of this age are very rare from North America, so there is not much to compare them to that has been found so far,” Krumenacker said.

More fossils are needed to completely

classify the dinosaurs and determine familial relationships, appearance and behavioral habits such as diet.

“Part of the challenge in unraveling the evolutionary history of a particular lineage of animals is dealing with a fragmentary fossil record,” said Jordon Bright, a UA geosciences graduate student. “Finds like this fill in a lot of blank spaces and unanswered questions.”

Though evidence is only based on isolated teeth, bones and eggs, Krumenacker said he has some ideas about what these dinosaurs could have been. He believes the tyrannosauroid-like dinosaur could have been similar to various species from the genus Megaraptor, and the eggs could have been laid by an oviraptorosaur, or “egg thief lizard.”

“The [tyrannosauroid] is the largest definite predator we know of in the formation and may have been the top carnivore,” Krumenacker said.

While people most commonly think of dinosaurs as towering beasts, there exists great diversity in size when it comes to the

prehistoric animals.

“There are smaller species of [tyrannosauroid] dinosaurs, as this [new discovery] points out, that were the size of horses and dogs,” Bright said. “From an evolutionary point of view, this allows us to ask broader questions about how these dinosaurs evolved, without being locked into the idea that ‘bigger is better.’”

Though this is a step in the right direction, there is still a lot to do in terms of finding and classifying the fossils.

Krumenacker said the next steps are to keep looking for fossils, explaining that “there is a huge backlog of specimens from the Robinson Bonebed that still need [to be] removed from the rock in the laboratory.”

More specimens will be described and studied as more fossils are found within the bonebed in Idaho.

STEPHAN DONG/THE DAILY WILDCAT

EYE COLOR can be genetically manipulated in flies. The left fly is expressing a white minus mutation in its eyes and the right is expressing a white plus, characteristic of a wild type phenotype.

Love is a fruitless venture UA lead research is finding how a single “fruitless” gene in fruit flies can change everything, from courtship dances to fertility

BY STEPHAN DONG The Daily Wildcat

When romance comes to mind, the first thought that follows usually isn’t about fruit flies. These tiny, annoying insects, however, can provide a great deal of insight into sex and courtship behaviors.

Although it may be difficult to differentiate male and female fruit flies by observing them eat, sleep and fly, their sexual behaviors are very distinct.

Male fruit flies carry out an elaborate, step-by-step ritual to woo their potential mate.

The steps of this strict process include chasing, tapping and singing. Like birds, flies will sing songs by rubbing their wings

together to produce high-pitched notes.

If the male has performed his display to the female’s liking, then the two will mate, but the female fly has an array of rejection techniques to use if her pursuer doesn’t make the grade.

The gene responsible for enabling this courtship dance is commonly referred to as fruitless, formerly known as fruity, and even though female flies may not behave as males do, they still happen to contain this gene. Through a process called alternative splicing, this gene can be expressed differently in males than females, enabling males to court and preventing females from courting other flies.

However, in 2005, an Austrian research group decided to splice the fruitless gene

in a way that reversed the sexual behaviors between male and female fruit flies. Male fruit flies expressing a female version of fruitless were infertile and unable to distinguish whether their mate was male or female. Some flies incorrectly performed their courtship dance and some couldn’t court altogether.

Females expressing a male-spliced fruitless gene also decreased in fertility and would actively attempt to court other females, demonstrating all steps in the male courtship process besides copulation.

The fruitless gene also encodes for an array of other biological functions, such as brain development.

“These [behavioral] genes are required

for development and set up [neural] circuitry,” said Dr. Konrad Zinsmaier, a UA neuroscience professor.

While humans and other higher order mammals do not have the fruitless gene, there is a vast array of comparable genes that encode more complex sexual behaviors.

“There are genes in mammals higher up, which do very similar things,” Zinsmaier said. “These [behaviors] are being predetermined by genes. You have environmental effects on that to make it a whole.”

The non-scary side to mathematics

BY A.J. TORRE

The Daily Wildcat

Math is often seen as a scary subject; something to be feared and hated rather than understood and enjoyed. It is also widely believed that math is a topic people are inherently good at, that understanding mathematics is a skill you are born with, not a process you can practice for improvement.

Despite people’s fear of mathematics, math education research can, and should, pique the interest of even the most math-phobic person.

Math education research investigates a wide array of topics, from the way students think about geometry problems to the skills math teachers must possess in order to be successful.

Dr. Rebecca McGraw, a UA associate professor in the department of mathematics, researches how elementary education and math education majors understand geometry

problems. She also studies how professional development sessions can serve to better teachers’ math skills.

According to McGraw, one of the biggest current issues in math education research is “how to increase opportunities and achievement in math for all students,” with the ultimate goal being greater diversity in the STEM workforce.

A second major topic in math education research is finding ways to engage students in a “productive struggle around challenging mathematics,” said Dr. Jennifer Eli, another UA mathematics associate professor, who specifically researches math education.

Understanding the importance of making mistakes is referred to as a “growth mindset,” according to Eli. She stressed the importance of showing students that understanding math is a process, not something that comes without effort.

Earth Transformed

This focus on helping students succeed is also evident in other areas of STEM education research.

According to Dr. Antonio Garcia, a biomedical engineering professor at Arizona State University, there is a strong interest in “enhancing how STEM is taught—especially in the lower division courses— in order to motivate students, retain them in STEM disciplines to graduation, and practice as well as attract the next cohort of students.”

While many students fear math and dread their math requirements and statistics courses, math education researchers are acutely aware of people’s fear and dislike toward mathematics. They are actively working to combat such stereotypes and give every student the chance to succeed in mathematics.

Climate change could mean more mosquitoes BY priyanka hadvani

The fourth lecture in the “Earth Transformed” College of Science Lecture Series on Feb. 22 attempted to unify local citizens with the scientific community.

In her lecture, Kacey Ernst, associate professor of epidemiology and biostatistics at the UA, addressed climate change and impacts on human health. Her talk, titled “Climate Change and Human Health: Impacts and Pathways to Resilience,” hit many key points about the impact of pathogen and parasite caused illnesses in humans, extreme-heat deaths and famines.

The Southwest climate projections show an increase in temperature of up to 8 degrees Fahrenheit if humans continue to live with emission trends, according to Ernst. This may directly correlate to the increase of emissions and fossil fuel usage.

Thus, as the environment gets warmer and drier, monsoon seasons are likely to bring flooding—presenting environments suitable for the many species of mosquitoes.

Specifically, Aedes aegypti, the “yellow fever mosquito,” is likely to find a home in the increasing urbanization of the population, according to Ernst.

Ae. aegypti is naturally inclined to follow humans to their urbanized locations, and the natural combination of rain and the abundance of plastic containers that are disposed on a daily basis provides a convenient home for them, according to Ernst.

In her research, Ernst studies the impact of mosquito dynamics on human health.

She collects adult mosquitoes and pays close attention to those that are able to carry viruses.

Ernst collected Ae. aegypti in three regions: Nogales, Hermosillo and Tucson.

There was a higher proportion of Ae. aegypti adult females in Tucson than in Hermosillo or Nogales in 2014. Because of the health and infrastructure, the large population of mosquitoes is not as big of a problem here in the United States, according to Ernst. Thus far, all cases of the Zika virus—the latest public health emergency brought by Ae. aegypti—in the United States have been related to travels.

“Our current weather conditions are not conducive to local transmission for Ae. aegypti populations,” Ernst said. “Ae. aegypti is very adaptable, however, and we do not know enough to say how tolerant of lower temperatures it may eventually become.”

Dr. John Pollard, associate professor of chemistry and biochemisty, says it’s time for humans to acknowledge their role in the current state of the climate and to think of how we’re going to combat these issues.

“There is no longer a real debate about whether or not climate change is occurring.

It is conclusive that there is a human contribution to it,” Pollard said. “We have moved from a state of trying to present and justify human involvement, to saying we are a part of the problem and now what are we going to do for solutions.”

Energy drinks contain high amounts of caffeine, as well as other stimulants, sugars, and additives. You may be familiar with Red Bull, Rockstar, Full Throttle, Monster, Amp, and NOS, to name a few. Mixing energy drinks and alcohol can give you a false sense of soberness – and lead to jitteriness, headaches, and a fast heartbeat. Combining caffeine (a stimulant) and alcohol (a depressant), does not “cancel out” the effects of either substance, but rather causes you to feel less intoxicated than you actually are.

This is dangerous because it may cause you to consume more alcohol than you normally would, or originally intended.

Mixing energy drinks and alcohol can lead you to engage in risky behaviors, which could have a variety of negative health outcomes. These include sexual risk-taking, driving under the influence, fighting, and injuries.

The Centers for Disease Control

Other highly caffeinated alcoholic beverages, such as Four Loko, are especially dangerous and can cause serious health issues, unconsciousness, coma, or even death in some drinkers. One 23.5 oz. can of Four Loko has almost six times the amount of alcohol than in a 12 oz. can of Keystone Light.

Party smarter and safer by choosing an alcoholic beverage with a lower alcohol content and without caffeine. Be sure to set a drink limit, alternate with water, and stick with your plan.

and Prevention (CDC) reported that drinkers who consume alcohol mixed with energy drinks are 3 times more likely to binge drink than drinkers who do not report mixing alcohol with energy drinks. They are also twice as likely to report the following: being taken advantage of sexually, taking advantage of someone else sexually, and riding with a driver who was under the influence of alcohol.

The definition of privacy should change with tech

BY MARISSA HEFFERNAN The Daily Wildcat

T

he debate over individual privacy versus collective safety is ongoing. It began with 17th century philosopher Thomas Hobbes’ idea that all individuals cede some of their rights to a government in return for protection. This idea continues to be considered today with Apple’s refusal to unlock an iPhone for the FBI. The phone belonged to one of the San Bernardino shooters, Syed Rizwan Farook, and the phone is set to erase all data after 10 failed password attempts. The FBI asked Apple to help it get around the password in order to learn if the shooters were connected to a larger terrorist network, but Apple refused on the basis of privacy rights.

Apple claims that creating a back door would open up the potential of the government spying—not just in the U.S.—and would give hackers a possible way in.

So far, the U.S. Department of Justice has ordered Apple to comply, but Apple plans to fight the order. The company will file its first legal argument Friday and the hearing will happen sometime next month.

Many people support Apple’s decision, as it seems like a stand against the “Big Brother” government, but there are more important

Letter to the editor

UAlert isn’t reliable anymore When I was a freshman here at the UA, I thought the UAlert system was a great initiative that, along with the blue light system, made me feel safe on campus. Not only would I be alerted to incidents on campus, but my mom would also receive alerts to her phone in Phoenix and could text me to inform me of any dangerous threats on campus incase I had not seen the UAlert.

Living on campus, I felt safe and secure in the knowledge that my campus was informing me of dangerous events such as bomb threats, assaults and robberies. I would sometimes have to walk home from the library in the middle of the night, but I did not feel threatened. I did not feel as if I would come to harm and if I did, I felt confident that my campus had protections in place to ensure my safety, even in the crime-ridden city of Tucson.

Since then, however, my attitude has completely changed. The university has no regard for the safety of its students and fails to send out any UAlerts warning students of dangerous situations on campus.

My first sense of alarm occurred after two female students who were walking home just north of campus were robbed. It would have been the reasonable thing for the university to send out an alert informing other students walking around at this time. However, I had no idea this had happened until my roommate’s dad sent her an article about it from the Tucson news because we live right off campus.

Then, a girl was sexually assaulted on

campus.

The night before Halloween last year, a young woman was held at knife-point and sexually assaulted, only able to escape when other people who were walking by distracted the man. Why was a UAlert not sent out? It was the night before Halloween and I’m sure there were hundreds of other young women walking around campus. So, why were they not informed that another girl was sexually assaulted on campus and the perpetrator was not found? By not sending an alert out, the university jeopardized the safety of other students on campus. What about other young women who are walking in the same area alone? Without a warning, you are directly putting students in danger.

What about the female student who was sexually assaulted on campus on Feb. 5?

She was assaulted at 5:40 a.m. near the Park Student Union, and the suspect was not found. Did anyone get a UAlert about that?

No—I got an email through my employment on campus warning me about the incident.

The irony? It advises students to sign up for UAlert as a safety precaution! What if I was not employed on campus? What about the other students who should be warned to be alert and careful?

When I was the policy associate director of ASUA last year, I spearheaded the “It’s On Us” campaign against campus sexual assault.

I used to not feel personally threatened by sexual assault because I assumed the University of Arizona Police Department

was watching out for my safety and that my campus was relatively safe. Over time, I came to realize that I was wrong on both accounts.

Not only was I surprised to learn just how many sexual assaults get reported to UAPD, but I have now found out that UAPD does not care about my safety. Now, I cannot say that I feel safe on campus.

The last straw occurred last week. There was a shooting right across the street from campus, with an active shooter on the loose. I live two blocks away from where this shooting occurred, and did I get any notice that my life could be in danger? Of course not. The only reason I even found out about this was because a friend was driving down Campbell Avenue and noticed that the street was completely blocked off.

Living two blocks away from campus, I need to know about incidents like this, same as the rest of UA students. What if I were walking home by myself from the library at this time? I would be at complete risk and have no idea of the dangerous situation I was about to enter.

Even better, when I called the UAPD, I received a rude response that it did not happen directly on campus and thus did not concern them. Are you kidding me? There was an active shooter on the loose right across the street from campus, in a neighborhood that is highly populated by students. How can the university confidently say there is no chance that the shooter did not walk across the street and hide on campus?

On the UAlerts page, it explicitly says that

UAlerts will be activated in cases of violent activity including an active shooter and immediate threats to the UA community, including off-campus events. How is this not an immediate threat to the UA community?

This incident is literally defined as one of the incidents when UAlerts should be activated; yet there was complete silence.

I am so ashamed of my university. I used to feel safe on campus, but I realize now that it was just because the UA was too preoccupied with its self-image to send out alerts and inform its students of dangerous activity. I received six messages about a trivial power outage, but there was stark silence when an active shooter could have been running around campus, when girls were sexually assaulted or when a student was robbed at gunpoint. The university needs to explain to me and the rest of its students why it chose not to warn us about these incidents. I would love to know what is more important to it than student safety.

To all my fellow students, this is a question that I want answered by the UA. Call UAPD (520-621-8273) and demand an answer. I will be starting a petition to show the concern of all students, and I encourage you all to sign it. If you and I cannot feel safe at our own university, then UAPD and our school are failing at their jobs.

Privacy is compromised with every click

BY Michael Cortez

The Daily Wildcat

W

e live in an age of endless connections to social media via our electronic devices and it’s become relatively easy for us to give up our privacy without even realizing it. There are ways we give away our privacy on a daily basis and there are many steps you can take to protect your information.

Geolocation data is one such example of how we sacrifice our privacy online.

With spring break fast approaching, we all want our friends to not only see what we’re doing, but where we’re doing it. As a result, we share photos with a location tag included in the post. The use of geolocation data isn’t always so plain to see, however.

Many people don’t know that when you

post an image online or even save it on your computer, within the file itself is hidden location data. Thankfully, many social media sites now remove this data and it’s possible to turn off location embedding on smartphone cameras.

Rewards and loyalty programs are another seemingly innocuous system that areactually stripping us of our privacy. That Fry’s or Safeway card you use to get points and discounts on groceries? I hate to break it to you, but it has a slightly more sinister purpose: tracking you. In order to provide you with coupons and other mail-delivered ads that keep you coming back and spending money, these programs track your spending habits and your grocery preferences every time you go shopping. This is essentially data mining—worthless to consumers, but extremely valuable to vendors.

You know when you download a new program and it requires you to scroll through a wall of text before asking if you agree to the terms? Well, how many times have you quickly scrolled to the very end to click

agree, without reading a single line of the terms of agreement? Who actually has the time and the patience necessary to read all of that jargon? Unfortunately, this is just another way that we give up our privacy.

Samsung has recently began to warn users that its “SmartTV” devices were recording users’ conversations and sending them to a third-party. Pretty disconcerning, no?

How can you better protect our privacy?

First, better utilize the various privacy functions that many social media platforms already offer. Setting accounts to private and using two-factor authentication are two quick and easy ways to start protecting your personal information.

Instead of posting those spring break pictures while you’re out of the country and advertising that your home is empty and ready to be broken into, why not just wait until you’re back at home to share them?

When applying for rewards programs, create a “junk” email address and only use that one when you sign up for those types of programs.

Finally, use private browsing—especially if you’re using a device that isn’t yours or connected to unsecured networks like UA Public Wi-Fi. If you want to take it a step further, you can use a VPN, or virtual private network, which acts as a sort of secure tunnel for all the data that you send and receive.

Our privacy is compromised on a daily basis, but not all is lost. There are many preventive measures you can take in order to ensure that your information is secure. The digital world can be a scary place, but it’s a safe place if you know your way around and understand its limitations.

Your privacy is yours to safeguard and for many of us, it’s time to reevaluate whether we’re doing enough to protect ourselves.

There are plenty of resources to help you get on track and I assure you it’s in your best interest to begin doing so.

#FreeKesha: ‘Nobody should ever be forced to work with their abuser’ BY maddie birr

The Daily Wildcat

F

ollowing allegations of sexual assault against her producer, Dr. Luke, Kesha entered a legal battle to nullify her six-album contract that the two are in under Sony.

The verdict came from the Manhattan Supreme Court on Feb. 19 with the horrifying news that rather than being freed from her alleged attacker, Kesha would have to continue to work with Dr. Luke through the end of the contract.

While no charges were officially brought up, Kesha has accused Dr. Luke of drugging and raping her following her 18th birthday roughly 10 years ago. Since then, she claims to have undergone further sexual and emotional trauma caused by Dr. Luke. Even when considering the details of the assault and abusive relationship between Kesha and Dr. Luke, the Manhattan judge said that breaking the contract between Kesha and Sony would cause Sony financial harm and would break the laws set in place with contract agreements.

Sony offered to have Kesha work with another producer, but Kesha declined as she believes any album she would make with a producer other

Their support is of the utmost importance if any industry-wide change is going to happen.

Sexual assault in the music industry has the unfortunate tendency to fade into the background shortly after being uncovered, leaving the path open for further instances to occur.

This pattern of sexual violence in the music industry is all too prevalent and far too tolerated. Many cases are simply swept under the rug and never confronted, as sexual assault is considered part of the price of being in the industry.

This notion is absolutely ridiculous. A person should be free to pursue any career or dream without the fear of being sexually assaulted.

When Kesha broke her silence about her case’s verdict, she wrote on Facebook, “All I ever wanted was to be able to make music without being afraid, scared, or abused …

This is about being free from my abuser.”

POP CULTURE IN THE NEWS COURTESY OF CARE

MEMBERS OF WILDCATS CARE work with various animals at and around the UA campus. Wildcats CARE is a campus club that helps homeless and abused animals.

Campus club is not kitten around

BY LAUREL REISCH The Daily Wildcat

Animal lovers at the UA use their passions to help homeless and abused animals through Wildcats Committed to Animal Rescue and Education.

This club helps animals through members volunteering at animal shelters such as Pima Paws for Life and Pima Animal Care Center.

Amanda Gunderson, a business management senior, and Ashley Gurevitz, a public administration graduate student, founded Wildcats CARE in September 2014.

“We started it because the former club that existed on campus called Cause for Paws had unfortunately ended and we felt that it was important for students to stay involved in animal welfare,” said current Wildcats CARE vice president Gurevitz.

Wildcats CARE members volunteer at Pima Paws for Life and Hearts That Purr. They try to offer different activities as well, such as touring the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary. They also work with the Hermitage No-Kill Cat Shelter and the county shelter. They try to provide many different opportunities for their members.

Haylee Coleman, an undeclared freshman and Wildcats CARE club member, is invested in volunteering and going to shelters.

“I’m really passionate about helping out because without all of the volunteers, the shelters can’t keep running,” Coleman said. “If they are no-kill shelters, the way they get grants and money is because of the volunteers, so without enough volunteers, they can’t run.”

Wildcats CARE also puts on fundraisers to raise money for different animal shelters.

They fundraise by doing percentage nights at restaurants close to campus every semester, with 75 percent of the funds from fundraising being donated to the shelter of the club’s choice. Club members vote on which shelter they donate to, but donations vary.

Sometimes, the club purchases items on the shelter’s wish list or provides them what they need at the moment. Other times, they will make a check donation if the shelter has a lot of vet bills.

The extra 25 percent is kept for club funds that they use to buy members snacks and treat distinguished members of the club out to dinner at the end of the semester.

The club’s greatest fundraiser is through its Wildcats CARE T-shirt sale. Wildcats CARE is selling club T-shirts until March 16 to raise money for an animal shelter called Angels for Animals.

Geneva Fitzgerald, political science junior and Wildcats CARE event coordinator, has always had a passion for animals and enjoys learning about how she can help animal shelters in the Tucson area.

“I joined in October 2014 because animals have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve always had a huge love for animals,” Fitzgerald said. “I was so happy to find a club that loves what I love to do. I joined to meet other people who love animal rescue and also to find out more about the shelters around Tucson.”

Members learn about animal welfare topics such as Trap-Neuter-Return, declawing cats, pet safety in high temperatures, finding a lost pet, pet safety around the holidays and information about receiving animals as gifts.

“I believe that animal welfare is a really

important issue that people need to understand and realize that adopting an animal is a lifetime commitment,” said Dr. Cindi Gilliland, professor of practice in management and organizations and Wildcats CARE club adviser. “Wildcats CARE is a lot of fun and a great way to bond with people who love animals. It feels like you’re making a difference in the community every time you go walk dogs or pet cats when you help with the different shelters.”

There are also guest speakers who talk to the club’s members and officers. In the past, they have had a police dog and officer, Southern Arizona Greyhound Adoption, Angels for Animals and a veterinary technician from the Hermitage Cat Shelter come and speak.

“My favorite thing about the club has been meeting so many great people [who] are also passionate about animal rescue,” Gunderson said. “It’s great also to see animals that you’ve been volunteering with for the past few months and they finally get adopted. While it’s sad that they won’t be there at the shelter anymore, it’s also great knowing that they have a really good home now and that they will never spend a day in the shelter again. It kind of breaks my heart, but it’s a great feeling as well.”

If you are interested in joining Wildcats CARE, you can contact Gunderson, at agunderson@ email.arizona.edu.

Be #RelationshipGoals with these tips

BY Hannah Djavadi The Daily Wildcat

Being in a relationship, in many ways, is like jumping in the ocean without a life vest. It can cause feelings of invigoration and timeless happiness, but the fear of the unknown can appear to be revealing and terrifying at the same time. Whether it’s a newly-formed relationship, a long-distance relationship or a long-term relationship, the key to any successful partnership is being able to effectively communicate with your significant other.

Messages and communication make up our world. Dr. Diana Leonard, adjunct lecturer and director of public speaking in the communications department at the UA, said communication is a necessary facet in all relationships.

“You cannot not communicate,” she said.

Though all relationships require communication, the difference between all relationships and a romantic relationship is that the romantic relationship “requires a deeper level of vulnerability,” according to Leonard.

Aimee King, an adjunct lecturer in the communications department, discussed communication theories that essentially

reveal the idea that a relationship is based off the communication that is shared between partners, and that “it’s not the relationship that impacts the communication, instead, it’s the communication that tells us how stable and satisfying our relationships are.”

Although communication can sometimes be flawed between partners, it is necessary to further develop strong communication skills regardless of communication styles.

Everyone handles things differently. Some people would rather avoid conflict, while others are fueled by it.

“It’s crucial to try and understand where your partner is coming from, especially if the two of you are not seeing eye-to-eye on a particular subject matter,” King said.

She explained that understanding is not essentially agreeing with what the other person is saying.

“If both people understand that the other is trying to see the world from their perspective, then it helps bridge the misunderstanding,” she said.

Communication is not only necessary for couples who see one another daily, but it is even more significant for partners who are in a long-distance relationship.

Leonard said that when it comes to

long-distance relationships, putting in a little bit of effort can make a big difference.

“It’s the little things that really matter,” King said. “It’s even a short daily phone call. No relationship can survive and thrive if it’s put on ‘auto-pilot.’”

Although communication is an important factor in all successful relationships, a general mistake that can cause tension in a relationship is when an individual does not make his or her own needs known. Lack of expressing our own needs can turn to blaming our partner.

Leonard suggested talking “about ourselves and describing our own experiences, while seeking to hear the experiences of our partner, which may differ.”

It’s important to not only listen to the message your partner is trying to convey from his or her own perspective, but to also acknowledge what your partner is feeling.

Common mistakes may include criticizing our partner and being defensive when we hear things we don’t like or agree with, according to King.

Although making mistakes is an inevitable part of all relationships, it’s important to recognize that if you are

feeling contempt, criticized, defensive or stonewalled—described by Dr. John Gottman as “The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”—it is a red flag, not a yellow flag, according to Leonard.

Leonard warns it is important to be aware of these behaviors. “[These behaviors do not] mean that it’ll never work, it just means that this [behavior] must be fixed,” she said.

If this behavior continues, one might seek outside help or move on from the relationship.

The relationships formed by communication throughout our lives are a blessing, because at the end of the day— individually and in our relationships—we are still trying to find our purpose in this world.

Leonard reveals that the relationships in our lives are gifts that should always be cared for, paid attention to and nurtured.

Giving is as important as receiving, so it is a good idea to give a little more than you expect in return, then you’ll always feel full.

Coffee meets science at Cartel Coffee Lab

BY Mariel Bustamante

makes it less hectic because it’s a nice environment.

The Daily Wildcat

Cartel Coffee Lab, where coffee meets science, was started in 2008 in a warehouse in Tempe. As this alternative coffee roaster and shop began to expand, so did its fan base.

Cartel has six labs in Arizona and two in Tucson. They roast their own coffee, which is unique for a local coffee joint.

The Daily Wildcat went to the Campbell Avenue location to scope out the place and talk to baristas Aaron Jacobi and Thomas Oberin.

The Daily Wildcat: How long have you been working here?

AJ: Since July, so I don’t know how many months that is.

TO: Um, for three whole years. It’s been a while!

Do you enjoy working here? What is your favorite part?

AJ: Oh yeah I love it. My favorite part is probably the amount of customers who have come in contact between people. The way you’re able to interact with customers allows you to get beyond a normal employee-customer relationship; you get to talk to people a little bit more, you get to see them everyday and build relationships with people and you get excited when you see certain people.

TO: Yeah it’s a good job and it’s a lot of fun. It’s fast-paced, which is nice—it makes everything go by quicker and the people we get are super sweet, but also very strange, so it’s a good time. You never know who is coming through that door; it’s fun.

What is your favorite drink to make?

AJ: Oh man. (TO: in the background, “Come on dude!”) Uh, pouring beers. No just kidding. Just a good old V60 maybe.

I don’t do any of the nice fancy pours yet in terms of lattes—I’m not super into latte art, I’d rather it just taste good. Trying to make it taste good for the customer. [V60] is personally one of the drinks I enjoy the

most and it’s fun nailing it and [knowing] that the customer is going to enjoy the heck out of it.

TO: Probably cappuccinos—can’t go wrong with a cappuccino. It’s a good go-to.

What’s the best location?

TO: Downtown’s crazy, I’ve made Beck coffee before. ScHoolboy Q got me into his concert because I made him a really nice vanilla latte.

Have you had any weird experiences while working here?

AJ: Yeah, we’ve had some stuff for sure.

There was a guy who came in and stared at girls, so that was weird. He was just weirding people out and staring at people intensely. Also we get people who order things that aren’t on the menu and they get like really mad when we cant make a certain drink for them, its weird.

TO: We’ve had a lot of people steal our tip jars, like this one time, this woman came in and stole my tip jar, but when I went outside to get it she had sprinted away.

She’s a really interesting woman, she tried to do it again but I caught her and counted the money in front of her so that she knew I was onto her.

How does the setting influence your work?

AJ: The dim lights are kind of interesting.

During the day a lot more light comes in and it’s a lot more open. Our downtown location I prefer a little bit more during the day because it lets in a lot of natural light with a lot of skylights and it’s really nice and open. The vibe here [Campbell Avenue location] I kind of enjoy more [at night], because it reminds me of some of the bars I would go to—more of a tavern-like feeling. It’s fun to play music, have some fun interactions with customers, especially some of the people that come in who have beer and wine. It’s a lot more loose and casual and doesn’t feel like the UA Library.

TO: It keeps it chill and mellow, and

So, do you control the music?

AJ: Oh yeah, I like to play a lot of stuff.

We play all of it. There’s a lot [of songs] that I like to play, but I can’t because they have profanity and stuff, but I like to play some Mac DeMarco, Ty Segall, some typical stuff like Father John Misty and Arcade Fire. I just like to bounce around and pick some different stuff and sometimes it gets a little weird in here—especially when we break out the old Justin Timberlake and Usher.

TO: We play the hipster stuff in the morning. Frank Sinatra, jazz. I play Nirvana once a shift. One of our guys plays clubbing music, but I don’t like to listen to that trash.

We love the classics; we have a wide range of music.

Why Cartel?

AJ: Cartel is a place that pays attention to details and product. The coffee, the taste, the way that employees talk to you and we like to nerd out with our customers, and hope that people like to nerd out with us.

We strive to get as close to perfection as possible. Also, the community, it’s really easy to meet people here, especially if you’re a regular. You’ll surely get to know all of us and make friends with us. And you’ll also get to know the other regulars and it turns into a little Cartel community, and it’s a wonderful thing.

TO: Cause it’s the best. Best coffee shop in Arizona, so that’s pretty rad. We’re all really nice and make good coffee, so yeah.

These boys’ cool and chill attitudes reflect the ambiance that Cartel Coffee Lab provides. Along with roasting its own coffee, the lab is big within itself and provides bakery items to split with your friends or eat while studying.

Cartel is located at 210 E. Broadway Blvd. or 2516 N. Campbell Ave.

Giovanni’s serves Tucson a taste of Italy

BY SAMMY CHERUKURI The Daily Wildcat

Ice cream and milkshakes are no doubt a great way to stay refreshed during the impending Arizona heat, but if you’re feeling a little too mainstream, then the time has come to switch up your taste palette.

Giovanni’s Gelato Cafe offers a unique gateway to Italian delights for the Tucson community.

The Oro Valley area welcomed Giovanni’s in fall 2015. The cafe prides itself on the notion that all the ingredients and aspects of the gelato shop contain Italian authenticity.

Giovanni Rizza, the founder and manager, takes immense pride in the cafe that he and his wife Agnes established. The couple dreamed for years of opening the cafe in the Tucson area.

The cafe, located in a small plaza adjacent to the Hilton Tucson El Conquistador Golf & Tennis Resort, offers Oro Valley a cultural sensation.

The interior theme gives off an eccentric and modern vibe. Ornate miniature chandeliers hang from the ceiling, and color changing

NICK SMALLWOOD/THE DAILY WILDCAT

GIOVANNI’S GELATO CAFE, located on Oracle Road in Oro Valley, Arizona, on Tuesday, March 2. Giovanni’s opened in the fall of 2015 at its Oro Valley location and prides itself on having authentic gelato from Italy.

lights illuminate it. The enormous display of gelato flavors, however, steal the show. UA art history junior Gretchen Bunch could hardly contain her excitement upon seeing the display.

“It’s like looking into the face of a rainbow,” Bunch said. “All of the colors contrast each other, but blend

perfectly at the same time. The birthday cake flavor looks insanely delicious with all of those blue and yellow hues mixed together.”

Apart from the colorful gelato display, the fact that the cafe’s staff includes Rizza’s immediate family proves its authenticity. Each employee exhibits a sincere pride

in delivering Italian treats to the community. Rizza himself worked with the staff, providing feedback and encouragement.

Rizza showcased a genuine enthusiasm for his gelato mixes.

“If you want to have authentic and true gelato, it has to truly come from Italy,” Rizzo said. “All of our ingredients, apart from the milk and sugar, come from Italy. As a native Sicilian, I grew up learning the importance of traditional food. We have 49 different flavors here.”

The pride and joy expressed

by Rizza and his family create a refreshing ambiance. The cafe interior showcases Italian pride and expresses true dedication. However, there is one drawback to this Italian gateway. Located in the heart of Oro Valley, the commute to Giovanni’s is about 30 minutes.

Despite the drive, the taste of the gelato proved to be flavorful and enticing. The cafe showcases a cute display of Italian chocolate treats and tiramisu candy sticks, accompanied by an authentic taste.

Communications junior Kelsey Cardenas preferred the Oreo gelato after trying many of the intriguing

flavors.

“I know Oreo can be a basic flavor,” Cardenas said. “I’ve always assumed that gelato was only made out of neutral flavors like chocolate or vanilla. I’ve only had gelato once before, and it wasn’t the greatest experience. I’m all for it now, especially since the cafe has different flavors that I can try every time—I could never get bored.”

Giovanni’s has reasonable prices, ranging from $3.75 for a small cup to $5.55 for a large. Giovanni’s menu also offers other Italian desserts like tiramisu, cannolis, coffees and teas.

And, the staff prepares the delights rather quickly, despite the crowds.

The modern and family oriented establishment gives patrons the chance to unwind and refresh with true Italian delights. If you find yourself up in the Oro Valley region, or desire a change of scenery from the downtown Tucson area, check out Giovanni’s Gelato Cafe for a delicious and refreshing Italian experience.

Arizona parts ways with Butts after eight seasons

BY RYAN KELAPIRE The Daily Wildcat

Niya Butts era begins: Butts took over as the head coach of Arizona women’s basketball prior to the 2008-2009 season, looking to re-energize a struggling program. In the three years before her arrival, Arizona had a combined record of 29-63. In Butts’ first season, the team finished 12-19—a two-win improvement from the previous season. The Wildcats won the Bank of Hawaii Invitational in Butts’ first weekend as head coach and won an opening round game of the Pac-10 Tournament against Washington State.

The team was led by Ify Ibekwe, who won numerous accolades including being given the Associated Press All-America honorable mention, a first-team All-Pac-10 selection and a first-team All-Pac-10 Defensive Team.

Early improvement: In each of Butts’ first three seasons in Tucson, the team saw its win total increase from the previous season.

Arizona won 12 games in Butts’ first season, 14 games in her second and had a successful 21-12 season in 2010-2011, Butts’ third season with the program.

That 21-win total is the best mark the program had since the 2003-2004 season when it won 24 games.

In that 2010-2011 season, the Wildcats went 10-8 in Pac-10 Conference play, and made it to the semifinals of the Pac-10 Tournament. After that, the Wildcats were invited to the Women’s National Invitational Tournament and despite losing to Utah State in the first round, it was the program’s first postseason appearance since the 2004-2005 season.

Program declines: Despite a promising start to Butts’ tenure, the progress halted and the program declined. After winning 21 games in the 2010-2011 season, Arizona’s win total would decrease in each of the next three seasons.

The 2013-2014 season was the lowest point, as Arizona went 5-25 to finish the second-worst record in program history.

The Wildcats would rebound slightly in the 2014-2015 season, but still only won 10 games, though one of the wins was a memorable one: a buzzer-beating home victory against a highly-ranked Stanford team.

MUNIR TUFAIL/THE DAILY WILDCAT

ARIZONA WOMEN’S basketball coach Niya Butts stares across McKale Center in disbelief during Arizona’s 63-56 win against USC on Friday, Feb. 5. Butts and the Wildcats defeated USC on Sunday in Los Angeles to gain momentum heading into the Pac-12 Conference Tournament.

Star power: A few of the program’s best players of all time played under Butts. In 2010-2011, Ify Ibekwe was named the Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year, All-Pac-10 and Pac10 All-Defensive Team.

She finished her career as one of the only players in Arizona history to record over 1,000 points and over 1,000 rebounds, and the only player to average a career doubledouble (14.3 points and 10.3 rebounds). She was also selected in the second round of the WNBA Draft as the sixth Wildcat to be chosen.

Butts also coached Davellyn Whyte, one of the best players in program history. Whyte was a four-time All-Pac-12 selection in the coaches poll and three-time All-Pac-12 selection in the media poll.

She finished second on Arizona’s all-time scoring list (2,059 points) and was selected 16th overall in the 2013 WNBA Draft.

Niya Butts era comes to a close: The 2015-16 season will be Butts’ last as the women’s basketball head coach at Arizona, the program announced Tuesday.

“I can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed having Niya and her staff as part of our athletics department,” Arizona athletics director Greg Byrne said in a statement. “They brought such a positive energy to McKale [Center] and were positive role models for the young women that came through our program.

Unfortunately, the results on the court weren’t where we needed them to be.”

With the program generally trending downward and Butts in the final year of her contract, it was imperative for the program to experience substantial improvement in 2015-2016, but it didn’t happen.

The team started the season well, winning seven of its first eight games, but once Pac-12 Conference play started, it was simply overmatched.

The Wildcats went just 3-15 in conference play, and they were often the victims of lop-sided defeats. The team’s conference losses were by 10 points or more.

It was an ugly end to the season as Arizona lost 14 of its last 15 games.

However, it did win what will turn out to be Butts’ final regular season game—a 63-56 victory against the USC Trojans in Los Angeles.

But by then, it was too late for Butts to salvage the season, and the athletics department will conduct a national search for the next women’s basketball coach once the season concludes.

The team has at least one game left this season—an opening round contest against Oregon in the Pac-12 Tournament on Thursday in Seattle. Butts will be on the sideline, but should the team lose, the season will officially be over and so will Butts’ time at the helm of the Arizona women’s basketball program.

Wildcats set for showdown in home debut

BY Brandon James The Daily Wildcat

After playing its first seven games of the season on the road, Arizona (4-3) will have its first homestand of the season, beginning with No. 23 California State University, Fullerton on Wednesday, followed by Northwestern State on Friday, California State University, Bakersfield on Saturday, and St. Mary’s and Northwestern State on Sunday.

Fullerton began the season losing two out of three to Stanford, but is coming off a weekend sweep of Indiana. Arizona returns home from the Tony Gwynn Classic in San Diego, defeating San Diego State University 7-3 thanks to a five-run rally in the eighth inning. The Wildcats defeated Nebraska 1110 in extra innings, but fell one run short against Tulane, 11-10, in their weekend opener.

Freshman Alfonso Rivas III had a standout series playing in his hometown of San Diego. He was named to the Tony Gwynn Classic All-Tournament Team, going 9-15 with seven RBIs. His biggest game came in the slug-fest against Nebraska on Saturday, where he went 5-6 in the extra inning win.

Rivas III was also named the Pac-12

Dalbec is off to a slow start, batting .138 through seven games.

Conference Player of the Week on Tuesday.

Arizona looks sharp offensively coming into its opening homestand of the season, but the team’s starting pitchers have shown some inconsistency. Going forward, it will be important for Arizona head baseball coach Jay Johnson and pitching coach Dave Lawn to establish a set starting rotation.

FIRST SOUTHERN BAPTIST CHURCH

JC Cloney, Cameron Ming and Nathan Bannister all turned in quality starts against Rice, but things got shaky against Lamar and in San Diego.

Michael Flynn only lasted 1.2 innings against Lamar, giving up five hits and four earned runs. Cloney and Ming both struggled in their second starts. Against

ARIZONA

Tulane, Cloney did not even make it a full inning, giving up four earned runs in 0.2 innings pitched. Ming made it into the fifth inning, but he was pulled after giving up two more runs.

Cloney did return to form against San Diego State though, throwing six innings and giving up just two runs. Johnson still has not decided who will start against Fullerton.

Playing at the monstrous Hi Corbett Field should help the Arizona pitchers out though, where it is 349 feet down the right field line, 366 feet down the left field line, 405 feet to right center field and 410 feet to left center field.

Before Wednesday night’s home opener, the Wildcats were in Scottsdale, Arizona and played an exhibition game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks won by a score of 12-5.

Opening pitch for Arizona’s matchup against Cal State Fullerton is slated for 6 p.m.

Arizona returns home for Wildcat Invitational Arizona softball saw mixed results during its road trip to Alabama last weekend and returns home to face BYU on Thursday night

BY CHRIS DEAK

The Daily Wildcat

Arizona softball (11-5) saw mixed results in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, this weekend, finishing with a 3-2 road trip record. The team scored a pair of victories over Marshall and knocked off No. 14 Tennessee, but lost two games to Alabama.

Arizona’s biggest bright spot from the weekend consisted of two more dominating performances from ace Danielle O’Toole against highly ranked competition.

O’Toole had two complete games, allowing no earned runs against No.4 Alabama and No.15 Tennessee.

After earning wins against Tennessee this week and No. 3 Louisiana State University last week, O’Toole already has two shutout victories against top-15 opponents and has a 0.28 ERA against top-15 opponents to start

the year.

“The mentality I’ve brought into it [has helped me] and the way you think about a batter throughout an entire game against teams like that has made a difference,” O’Toole said.

She is 7-2 overall with a 1.92 ERA and 54 strikeouts through 51 innings. O’Toole’s hot start has kept the Wildcats in every game she has pitched, and she had her first career save over the weekend as well.

While O’Toole provided stellar pitching throughout the weekend, errors cost the Wildcats against Alabama.

In its first to the Crimson Tide, Arizona escaped from an early deficit to put itself in the lead heading into the seventh inning. After a seven inning leadoff double for Alabama, a throwing error put Tide runners on the corners with no one out. O’Toole walked the bases loaded to set up a force at any base, but another throwing error on the next batter ended the game as Alabama scored the tying and winning runs off the errors to walk away with the victory.

The defensive struggles could be a product

of some makeovers across the diamond.

With Eva Watson out to injury, Candrea has had to alter his defensive alignment that already went through an overhaul in the offseason. Katiyana Mauga moved back to right field, a position she has played through the majority of her career, and Lauren Young took over at third.

“Once we get everyone doing what they need to do and feeling comfortable with who they are at this level, then I think this team has a chance of being good,” Arizona head coach Mike Candrea said.

The team swung the bats well enough at the plate this weekend to win three of its games, but scored only one run in two of its games.

One of those games turned out to be a victory for the Wildcats against Tennessee, when they won 1-0 on Mandie Perez’s leadoff home run to start the game. The other game was a run rule loss to Alabama in the second matchup between the teams.

Consistency will continue to be the key for Arizona going forward. The lineup tends to either get the Wildcats on the board early in the game, or stay quiet until a late inning

BECK KID CUDI

eruption brings them back in to the game.

Mo Mercado and Nancy Bowling are carrying the top and bottom of the lineups respectively, and have been the keys to the offense’s success so far.

The pitching rotation, meanwhile, has a clear, dominating ace in O’Toole, and she will be relied on throughout the year as the No. 1 starter. Freshman Taylor McQuillin has struggled as of late, but her last few outings were her first against major competition.

Receiving consistency from McQuillin would give the Wildcats a one-two punch that could rival anyone in the Pac-12 Conference.

“Hopefully this weekend will be her breakout weekend,” Candrea said. “That’s the way I look at it. I know what the young lady can do.”

The team resumes action Thursday night against BYU at 6 p.m. MST in the first game of the Wildcat Invitational at Hillenbrand Stadium.

Seniors ready for Cal to kickoff final homestand

BY KYLE HANSEN

The Daily Wildcat

As the regular season comes to a close for No. 18 Arizona, five Wildcats will be dressing out in front of the McKale Center faithful for the final time.

Gabe York, Kaleb Tarczewski, Ryan Anderson, Mark Tollefsen and Jacob Hazzard will look to defend their home court two final times, beginning Thursday night against the No. 25 California Golden Bears.

“Teams are desperate in a good way at this time of year,” head coach Sean Miller said.

“They reach back and they perform and they take down the giants in their conference tournament.”

Cal is one of the hottest teams in the Pac-12 Conference right now. Winners of its last seven and currently undefeated in February, Cal already upset the UA in January.

Miller had some high praise for Cal senior Tyrone Wallace, who missed the first matchup with a broken bone in his right wrist.

“I’m happy to see Tyrone Wallace [is] back.

He came back for his senior year and he’s one of the premier players in the Pac-12,” Miller said. “I know in many ways he’s Cal’s heart and soul both on offense and defense.”

Wallace returned to the Cal lineup in the Bears’ upset over Oregon and has averaged almost 15 points per game in the six games he has been back.

Cal is hitting its stride at the right time too.

Freshman phenomenon Jaylen Brown is seventh in the conference with 15.8 points per game. Jordan Mathews is third in the Pac-12 in 3-point field goal percentage at about 44 percent and Ivan Rabb has proven to be one of the better rebounders in the conference, averaging just over eight a game.

The Golden Bears as a team are one of the best defenses in the conference. They have held opponents to conference bests at 67 points per game and allowing teams to only shoot 39 percent from the field.

Arizona (22-7, 10-6) was most recently swept on its road trip through Colorado and Utah. The Wildcats now sit in fourth place in the Pac-12 standings and wins over Cal and Stanford would help ensure they earn a first round bye in next weekend’s Pac-12 Tournament.

“Coming off of back-to-back losses, that’s what Colorado did in [Los Angeles] and I thought they handled it extremely well against us,” Miller said.

The last time these two teams met, Arizona saw five players score in double figures, but to no avail. Mathews scored 28 and Brown added 15 for Cal. This weekend could be even more special for Tarczewski. With a sweep this weekend, he would officially become the all-time wins leader here at Arizona.

“It would mean a lot to be the winningest player here,” Tarczewski said. “There have been so many great players here. It would sum up, in my mind, how successful I’ve been since I’ve been here.”

But for Zeus, there’s one aspect that trumps this incredible feat.

“At this point of the season, kind of coming down to the end of it, we just need to be playing our best basketball and that’s the only thing that matters to me.”

Arizona and Cal tipoff at 7 p.m. on Thursday and the game will be broadcast on ESPN. — Follow Kyle Hansen @k_hansen42

BY MATT WALL

The Daily Wildcat

Arizona men’s basketball has found an inability to close out games, especially on the road this season. While the “Cardiac ‘Cats” have always been known to take close games down to the wire, this season has been especially difficult on Wildcats fans’ hearts.

Most recently, the Wildcats were swept by a now second place Utah team, for the first time since 1998, and a fifth place Colorado team.

“We’ve been so much better in the second half and there’s a reason for that: we are not a great team,” Arizona head coach Sean Miller said post-Utah.

Miller continued to emphasize the team’s struggle to make that play at the end of games to close out top teams.

“We have the ability to be right there, especially on an away court where you have to make a play, a block shot, a loose ball,” Miller said. “Today it was a defensive rebound on a missed 3-pointer, we just haven’t been able to make that play. When you can’t make that play, you get close, but you can’t usually finish and that’s really what we’ve done.”

In six of Arizona’s seven losses this season, the final minute was when the game mattered most.

Against Utah, the play happened with 44 seconds to go.

Utah’s Brandon Taylor dribbled toward the left and stepped back to hit a 3-pointer wide open.

Gabe York, his defender, ended up on the floor, which created that space. The Utes would go on to win 70-64.

Against Colorado, Arizona saw much of the same. York tried to do too much down three and be the hero with about 15 seconds left. Instead, he dribbled the ball out of bounds. Arizona almost escaped on a desperate 3-pointer from Allonzo Trier in the final seconds, but it rimmed out.

Against California, York,

guarded by three defenders, had the ball in the final seconds and couldn’t get his right handed layup to fall.

In the quadruple-overtime heartbreaking affair against USC, York had the ball tipped away past half court by Trojan defenders and heaved the ball to Kadeem Allen, who missed a 3-point attempt as time expired.

UCLA , on the other hand, would be the dagger that Miller would erupt over: a defensive mishap. On a switch screen, Kaleb Tarczewski was guarding Bruin sharpshooter Bryce Alford, who nailed a wide

open 3-pointer. Allen, who was supposed to be guarding Alford, switched with Tarczewski, which Miller erupted over in his press conference.

Last but not least, was the Wildcats first loss of the season, which came to Providence 6965. Down by two with just 15 seconds left, point guard Parker Jackson-Cartwright passed the ball into the hands of a Friar defender.

All these losses most certainly take a toll on a team that is still trying to find its momentum and groove going into the tournament. Luckily for Arizona,

these losses will mean pretty much nothing come tourney time.

Even luckier for Arizona, it has mastermind Miller on its side.

The Wildcats will learn so much from all their highs and lows this season.

People will sleep on the Wildcats come March, which is when they will hit their groove.

Bold statement: Arizona will make a deep tourney run in the NCAA Tournament this season.
