UA graduate students will take to the polls and vote for the next executive officers and representatives of the Graduate and Professional Student Council on Tuesday. Among those running for this spring’s election, three current executive board members up for reelection are involved in an internal controversy. During the past academic year, the current members of the GPSC executive board allocated council monies for a travel grant in addition to the existing grant for professional travel. This fund was only available to members of the executive board and was not immediately disclosed to the general council. While the fund was not used, members supplied themselves with an exclusive fund without the discretion of the general council members and their constituents.

THE HUB ON CAMPUS Tucson 2, an apartment building under construction geared toward UA students, stands adjacent to the Hub At Tucson, another student-focused high-rise apartment complex, on Sunday, March 27. A series of incidents involving students throwing trash and bottles from apartment balconies has made the Hub and other complexes near it centers of controversy during the past years.
The fund’s conception The GPSC is given a budget every year to spend according to the council’s needs, not unlike how students involved with the Associated Students of the University of Arizona create a yearly budget. Since the total monies spent for 2014-2015 academic year yielded leftover funds, the GPSC executive board used them for travel grants, according to Senior Assistant Dean of Students Chris Hargraves. “[Left over money] gets rolled over into a fund balance,” Hargraves said. “[GPSC] did have a positive fund balance at the end of the last fiscal that carried over into this academic year.” Travel grants are awarded on a per-need basis and may be awarded in a monetary value up to $750, which is limited to one trip per grant. A candidate must first apply for the award money in order to obtain a travel grant. The candidate is also required to go through a process in which

Main Gate balconies may get nixed A city councilman wants balconies in Main Gate Square gone after multiple occurances of bottles and garbage being flung at the Islamic Center BY LEAH MERRALL The Daily Wildcat
The misconduct of a few students in apartments with balconies might lead to the banning of building any more balconies in the Main Gate Square area. Sixth Ward Tucson City Council member Steve Kozachik proposed that all future infrastructure in the Main Gate area— the area on University Boulevard between Tyndall and Park Avenues—should not be allowed to have outfacing balconies above the third floor. This ban would apply to future development in the area, not current structures. The proposal came after a series of incidents in which students living in surrounding apartments threw items off their balconies on to the Islamic Center of Tucson that sits below. This issue made national news in the New York Times in February. Many said they believed the hurling of objects in the direction of the Islamic Center was racially or religiously motivated. Whatever the intention, Kozachik said he fears for the safety of people in the area. “I’m not inclined to wait until someone gets seriously injured or killed by a bottle flying off the 10th floor,” Kozachik said. The proposal, which the rest of the council agreed on, is now with the planning commission and will progress from there. It would mean that all future infrastructure in the Main Gate area could not have

and unfortunately this is not what Arizona Wildcats do. This is not reflective of the UA student population.” Roey Reiss, a pre-physiology sophomore, is a student living in the Hub at Tucson, one of the buildings with balconies in the Main Gate area. Next year, she plans to live in Hub On Campus 2, which is in the process of being built. Hub 2 will not be affected by Kozachik’s proposal and Reiss plans to live in a unit that has a balcony. “They are a great way to relax after a busy day of classes,” Reiss said. “However, some students feel the need to use these inappropriately. ... It is the apartment’s responsibility to keep the public safe. They can do this through increasing security and punishments for students that misuse the balcony instead of taking that privilege from everyone.” Pilarczyk said GMH was not informed there was an issue until it was already in the news. He said they would have been quicker to act if they had known earlier. “I think as a whole, our community is a bunch of smart, responsible students there for the right reasons and want to live somewhere where they can focus on their studies and enjoy a fun place that’s got a lot of community events,” Pilarczyk said. “Unfortunately, a couple of students made a couple of poor choices one night and now we’re all talking about it.”

outfacing balconies above the third floor. Kozachik said the buildings can have balconies facing their inner courtyards. He said he tried working with the property management company of Sol Y Luna, GMH Capital Partners, to close off the balconies to students in the upcoming school year, but was refused. Bruce Pilarczyk, senior vice president of marketing for GMH, said the situation has been challenging. “We don’t want to penalize 99 percent of the population of our community because of the acts of a few,” Pilarczyk said. “The challenge with all of these situations is that it all comes down to the responsibility of the tenant. We don’t tolerate it at our property no matter what and we’ve evicted students because of it.” Pilarczyk added that balconies are a selling point for student housing and it would be unfair to close them off to everyone because of a few incidents. On the other hand, Kozachik said he thinks the owners are making a mistake and said he currently has the city attorney in agreement to file criminal nuisance charges against the owners, not tenants, if something like this were to happen again. He also said if that was not sufficient, then the city would take them to a superior court and let a judge decide. “It’s unfortunate that the present ownership recognizes the fact that this has happened now each of the years [a] new student population shows up,” Kozachik said. “We’ve had too many near misses

Model UN preps the world’s future leaders BY Ava Garcia
The Daily Wildcat
The only binational and bilingual Model United Nations high school conference in the country occurred on the UA campus just a few weeks ago. In addition to high school students from the United States, nearly 300 students from Sonora and Chihuahua, Mexico, attended the conference to learn from the students who put the conference together: the Arizona Model UN. The club, a group of about 84 students who meet weekly or biweekly, works in committees to oversee the conference. All efforts are to ensure the conference runs as smoothly as possible, according to Dino Kadich, a geography sophomore and Secretary General of Internal Affairs for AZMUN. Kadich attended the conference three times when he was in high school and was able to see both sides of the event: attending the conference and running the conference. “[As an attendee] you really don’t realize how hard the people who run the conference work for you,” Kadich said. “It’s a huge thing that we put on by ourselves. We take on the burden. It’s a labor of love, 100 percent.” Some of that work is with translation between English and Spanish at the conference. As a bilingual conference, there are extra hurdles to the debates, but this binational aspect can create new opportunities for the students involved. “They use this as an opportunity not only to do what we do, which is build a community with each other, learn these awesome public speaking skills, have a good time while learning stuff, but also, this is a great opportunity for them to practice their English,” Kadich said. “So you think about how difficult it is how to learn Model-UN speak as a native English speaker, for them it’s this huge challenge. I imagine it’s amazingly rewarding when they go up there and they do really great because they’ve practiced so hard.” The 2015-2016 charter for AZMUN lists facilitating “bi-national [sic] dialogue and cooperation” as one of the club’s purposes, but this is just one facet of what the club does. Besides holding a conference for high school Model UN students, AZMUN also attends conferences to compete with other colleges. Students are assigned a country about a month or two in advance and are given topics for their debates, according to Eleanor Allen-Henderson, an undeclared freshman and member of AZMUN. Students then research their assigned country’s viewpoint on the topics and go into debates at the conference committees hoping they achieve their goals to help their countries while working with other countries and seeing where they stand. One of the major conferences AZMUN attends is in Chicago every fall. Every member goes to this conference, regardless of their financial need, according to Kadich,

because they offer scholarships for it. More than 1,000 students from different colleges attend the conference in Chicago. Though AZMUN doesn’t have to go through the work of hosting a conference when going to Chicago, the process of getting there requires plenty of coordination. “Logistically, I’m so impressed with our team because you have to coordinate all these flights and put people together in flight groups so that they can hold each other accountable and get to their flights on time and get from the airport to the hotel OK,” Kadich said. “Just like getting everyone’s information, their deans’ excuses and putting together a travel guide. … It’s a whole mess, but we’re pretty good about putting it all together and making it work very polished, even though we’re sort of freaking out in the background.” Once in Chicago, the students can experience college-level competition in a different way. “One of the things about Chicago is the body votes on who wins, versus the chair chooses the winner and so that kind of makes it less competitive,” Allen-Henderson said.
“So you’re more encouraged to cooperate. The way you win is by being nice to people versus modeling to a chair.” Besides the Chicago conference, AZMUN students also attend a spring conference, sometimes in Montreal or, this year, Los Angeles, Kadich said. Not all of the club members attend this conference, though, because of its proximity to the end of the semester. In between conferences, the club meets to practice debating, sometimes debating silly topics such as Beyoncé versus Nicki Minaj. These debates are to help members become more comfortable with debating, as well as to get to know each other better, according to Kadich. “I think that the greatest part of Model UN is finding a family at the UA of people who care about the same things as you and with who you can hold these really important and interesting and well-needed conversations about politics and feminism and things that are going on,” Kadich said. These kinds of conversations, as well as the work the Model UN entails, relate to one of the other club purposes listed on the AZMUN
charter: “To promote an understanding of the principles of the United Nations through education and promotion of its goals at the [UA].” Kadich said being in the Model UN gave him a deeper appreciation for what the actual UN does. “People don’t realize this and it’s something you realize when you’re in Model UN: the UN has so much going on,” he said. “All of these awful things happen in the world and the UN does so much to mitigate them.” Allen-Henderson, who participated in Model UN for four years in high school, said while she isn’t sure if Model UN has affected her career goals, it still made an impact on her. “It has totally affected the way I think and the way I view the world and the way I view problem-solving,” Allen-Henderson said. “It’s changed me fundamentally as a person because of the skills I’ve gained through model UN and so, in that way, it’s kind of shaped what I wanted to do.” — Follow Ava Garcia @ava_garcia_

GPSC FUNDS FROM PAGE 1
two or three judges review the candidate, according to the travel grant rules and guidelines outlined on the GPSC website. In this case, the executive board members sat on the judging board as backup judges, according to Hargraves and the official GPSC executive board meeting minutes. The members of the executive board were in this position because of the growth that the travel grant program has seen, according to Hargraves. For the executive board fund, all six members were allocated the full $750 amount for professional travel without going through the normal application process. Hargraves said this was done to alleviate the burden put on travel grant judges since the applicant-to-judge ratio is unbalanced, with applicants outnumbering judges. “The travel grant program, it’s grown big time from where we were with it previously. For this go around, we have over 200 applicants for March alone,” Hargraves said. “It’s been hard to get the required number of judges to be able for it to be not so burdensome. ... The executive board was actually trying to figure out a way to get the judge and not have to worry so much about each time if they are going to have judges. So, that’s kind of where the grant, the stipend, whatever you want to call it, came about. They were trying to fix a problem.” The board allocated $5,000 in total for the fund with at least $4,500 disbursed to the members at $750 each, according to the GPSC 2015-2016 budget and executive board meeting minutes. The controversy The members of the GPSC executive board decided to make this fund from the leftover money in October 2015, according to current GPSC President Sarah Netherton, Hargraves and the executive board meeting minutes from October. Although the fund was made, the members of the executive board did not inform the GPSC general council about the allocated money and did not seek out approval from their constituents. The executive board members did not apply for the grant or go through the judging process before receiving grant money. Instead, they automatically received the $750 grant. The members also violated rules regarding the use of travel grants. In order to use a travel grant, the supplied grant may only be used for one trip or one round of travel. In this case, Netherton allowed the board members to use the money in two trips, according to the executive board meeting minutes. This decision was again made without the approval of the general council or GPSC’s constituents. Since establishing the use of this leftover money in October, general council members did not find out about the executive travel fund until just weeks

“
befuddles me so much is that I don’t understand that it wasn’t immediately self-evident in the very moment that this came up and shut down without even a breath,” Karaman said. For GPSC vice president Juhyung Sun, the decision to create this without the approval of general council members is part of the job. He said he realized members of the general council might have had reason to contest with the decision. “Maybe we weighed heavily more on one than the other, but hindsight is 20/20,” Sun said. “These lapses in communication happen. … It doesn’t matter if you’re in student government, it doesn’t matter if you’re working at a nonprofit. … The constant problem is how we balance the burden of releasing all the information out there versus everybody trying to get their jobs done.” The resolution The executive board, along with its constituents, elected to get rid of the section allowing for the funds after mentioning the fund to the general council. Netherton realized the executive board made a mistake in failing to tell the general council about the decision. She emphasized during the meeting that the board decided not to use any of the allocated money. “So, I brought it back to the [executive board] and said, ‘We can’t do this. This is not OK for us to appropriate money like this if it’s any different than what we would get if we applied through the travel grant program,’” Netherton said. Both Hargraves and Netherton said the decision not to tell the general council stemmed from a lack of communication and an overall lack of foresight. “Unfortunately, the communication wasn’t there,” Hargraves said. “The communication of them not going to the general council, asking, ‘What do you guys think about this?’ … That conversation with the general council never came up.” Netherton is still running for a second term as GPSC president. Even though the money has been given back to the GPSC budget, she is not sure how this situation will affect her chances of re-election. For Sun, the happenings emphasized the need for communication in the workplace and a lesson better learned. “It doesn’t matter how much you get along with everyone,” Sun said. “You have to make sure that you’re checking in and that every loop is closed.” Netherton proposed the executive board have no power to make decisions for the GPSC as a whole for next year as a result of the backlash from the general council, but instead work as an entity to execute the general council’s ideas. The board and its constituents decided the leftover money from the budget must be spent by June, or it will be given to the cultural centers on campus.

Still voting season: GPSC voting kicks off Tuesday BY SAM GROSS
The Daily Wildcat
Graduate and professional students will cast their votes on Tuesday for a new batch of representatives and executive board members for the Graduate and Professional Student Council. Ending the nearly two-month election process for the seven executive board candidates and the nine representative candidates, the election has the positions of president, executive vice president, administrative vice president and select representative positions up for grabs. Unlike the elections for the Associated Students of the University of Arizona, which were held a few weeks prior and open to any UA student, only registered graduate and professional students can vote in this elections. Voting kicks off Tuesday at 8 a.m. and continues until Wednesday at 8 p.m. If a candidate is elected to both a presidential or vice presidential position and a representative position, the candidate then automatically forfeits his or her representative position. While the majority of the candidates are running for one position, and one position only, this rule may apply to the current GPSC secretary, Mariia Khorosheva, who is running for three separate positions. — Follow Sam Gross @samzgross

Laundry list of grad programs rank high BY BRICE LENNON The Daily Wildcat
Out of the 473 graduate programs offered at the UA , six have established themselves among the best in the nation. Speech-language pathology, audiology, management information systems, rehabilitation counseling, earth sciences and photography all earned themselves a top-10 finish in their respective categories in the U.S. News and World Report rankings. The U.S. News and World Report was created to help prospective graduate students calculate returns on investment. The six major disciplines in the report are business, law, education, engineering, medicine and nursing. The highest concentration of topranked graduate programs were in California, New York and Pennsylvania. The rankings are decided through statistical marks that rate the university’s students, research and facilities. They are also based on expert evaluations of the program’s excellence. “The UA has a long history of excellence in speech, language and hearing sciences,” said Pélagie M. Beeson, professor and head of the UA Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences
Department. “The speech-language pathology program has been in the top 10 since the 1980s, when U.S. News and World Report rankings first began.” The speech-language pathology program ranked seventh out of 249 graduate programs and the audiology program ranked ninth out of 74. The UA’s speech-language pathology program currently has 60 graduate students and the audiology program has 40. While small compared to other departments at the UA , these departments have excellent national reputations, especially for their contributions to their specialized areas of research. Both speech-language pathology and audiology fall under the School of Mind, Brain and Behavior in the College of Sciences. “We are fortunate enough to have excellent graduate students come to our program from all over the country,” Beeson said. She added that admission to both programs is highly competitive. The management information systems graduate program ranked fifth in this year’s U.S News and World Report poll. This marks the 28th straight year the MIS program has been in the top five public programs in the country. Within the College of Education,

the rehabilitation counseling graduate program ranked sixth. The program focuses on preparing graduates for professional certification as certified rehabilitation counselors and is well respected among counseling graduate programs. The earth sciences graduate program, within the Department of Geosciences, ranked seventh. The program is heavily focused on research and has held onto its No. 7 ranking since 2014. Under the College of Fine Arts, the masters of fine arts in studio arts, photography emphasis, ranked ninth. Overall, the School of Art is ranked 55th in the nation. This was also the first year doctor of nursing practice programs were included in the rankings. UA ranked 28th out of 149 national programs. The College of Nursing’s master’s in nursing program improved it’s 2016 ranking, moving it from 38th to 30th. While they may not have made it into U.S. News and World Report’s top 10, several other UA graduate programs rank competitively nationally, including pharmacy, sociology and public health. — Follow Brice Lennon @lennonbrice

f life shines upon you, it will thrust you into the presence of people that spark this realization: holy bananas in pajamas, some people are as weird as me. Belonging—like the warmth of a crackling fire in the winter time—is a comforting feeling. The more niched that weirdness, the greater the belonging. Any fans of enduring alternative rock band They Might Be Giants know this to be true. For more than 30 years, the TMBG duo of Johns Flansburgh and Linnell have produced a nearbiblical quantity of songs, with subject matter that is all sorts of odd, upbeat and clever. Over the years, this canon has attracted thousands of fans vibing to the same communal weirdness. Earlier this month, I spoke with frontman John Linnell about They Might Be Giants and its upcoming concert at the Rialto Theatre. They Might Be Giants has been a band for nearly twice as long as many students here at the UA have been alive. With the ephemeral nature of creativity, a run lasting multiple decades is an achievement few can claim. When asked if anything about the creative process managed to stay unchanged throughout the years, Linnell reflected on the origins of They Might Be Giants. “I’d say at the beginning for both John Flansburgh and myself, we were really interested in doing it for its own sake,” Linnell said. “We didn’t have some master plan of how we were going to have careers. ... I think we really liked doing and I don’t know if you can force yourself to feel that way.” Score one for the idea that the secret ingredient to all good things is love. Linnell does not possess an inflated ego despite such a prolific career. Instead, he counts his blessings for having made it so far following his passions. “In my case, it seemed very lucky that I had those things and I could imagine being a homeless man right now if I didn’t have those things,”

Linnell said. “It’s not very inspiring.” Inspiring or not, anyone remotely familiar with alternative rock will have heard the earworm hits of TMBG, particularly “Birdhouse in Your Soul” and “Istanbul.” These tracks check off the boxes of the TMBG sound: esoterically odd, clever in form and function and possessive of an upbeat catchiness that lives rent-free in most listeners’ brains. However, not every great TMBG song acts as a soundtrack to high fives. “In some way, humor itself is a way often of dealing with very dark stuff,” Linnell said. “That’s something that we seized on at some point: having the music and the sentiment and the lyrics at odds with one another. It just often feels right.” TMBG songs such as “Hopeless Bleak Despair” and “Why Must I Be Sad?” encapsulate such a mentality. On the whole, the work of TMBG gives off a glow of fun and lightheartedness, which was likely a factor in being approached to write a song for the upcoming Spongebob musical. The duo composed a song about Squidward Tentacles that
will likely make its debut when the musical premieres this summer. They Might Be Giants kicked off its tour in support of the recently released album, Phone Power, earlier this month. Songs from last year’s iteration of the Dial-a-Song project, in which listeners could dial a phone number to hear the latest song release, compose Phone Power. One of the lesser-known reasons Linnell enjoys touring is for the opportunities it presents for his hobby of taking pictures with old film cameras. “I do a lot of film photography,” Linnell said. “There’s a lot of different ways to do it and that’s fun because we travel around... Cheap, old film cameras are readily available. They’re fun. You can buy the chemistry and the material to develop film and do all that stuff for very cheap.” While TMBG creates music for general consumption, these hobby photographs stay out of the public eye. As for what concertgoers may expect from the Phone Power Tour, the answer is a little bit of everything. New music from Phone
Power will no doubt make an appearance, in addition to the big hits for the back row fans and deep cuts to please hardcore fans. A little of each makes for a balanced show and should please all fans. “I hope so,” Linnell said. “The alternative is to make everyone disappointed.” They Might Be Giants has successfully avoided that disappointment for more than 30 years and that streak has no end in sight. After all, it’s tough to disappoint those who find the oddity of They Might Be Giants running in their veins. For those with blood type TBMG or just a curiosity for quality music, check out They Might Be Giants on the Phone Power Tour. They Might Be Giants will play Tuesday at the Rialto Theatre at 8 p.m. General admission tickets are $27 and are available via the Rialto box office or online at rialtotheatre. com

Here’s what you need to do to get the job BY Hannah djavadi The Daily Wildcat
Submitting a resume and cover letter and preparing to answer the right questions for a job interview is easy, but there’s a huge difference between right answers and authentic ones. Here are some interview tips guaranteed to make you stand out during your next job interview: 1. Don’t talk negatively about your previous employer or job Avoid this, even if it’s well-deserved. Employers are looking to see your personality, honesty and values during a job interview. An employer does not want to hear about conflicts in previous work environments. Just like you wouldn’t air out your dirty laundry on a first date, an employer does not want to hear about the past, but rather what you can offer to the company in the future. “Something that would turn me off [during a job interview] is when a person is
complaining about old jobs or coworkers, or is trying to request time off during the interview,” said Christina Henneke, owner of Swindlers clothing store on University Boulevard. 2. Make sure to follow up after the interview Whether it’s a simple “Thank you” email or asking a follow up question, employers appreciate small gestures. This makes you seem like you genuinely care about getting the position. 3. Don’t show up to the interview without having researched the company prior Missing this step makes the interview a waste of everyone’s time. Taking 10 minutes to briefly research the company provides potential employees with background insight and valuable information necessary for an effective conversation. Make sure to ask questions after the interview. This shows you are willing to put yourself out there in order to learn more about the company.
4. Make sure to schedule the interview for first thing in the morning Make sure to thank the interviewer for meeting with you on first arrival. A simple please and thank you goes a long way. A study conducted by ScienceDaily found “circumstances under which decisions must be made quickly or without much deliberation, preferences are unconsciously and immediately guided to those options presented first,” according to Dana Carney, an assistant professor of management at the University of California, Berkeley. In other words, the early bird gets the worm.
Everyone knows you partied in college, but you don’t need the photos floating around to prove the point.
5. Don’t have inappropriate content on your social media An employee inadvertently reflects the company he or she works for, and if you are putting tasteless content on the Internet, it reflects poorly on the company and yourself. Employers screen the social media presence of potential employees 91 percent of the time, according to Ad Week.
The dos and the do nots of getting a job are simple but make all the difference in actually landing the job. Apply these to your next job search and success will find you.
6. Make sure to dress and act the part Fashion designer Tom Ford once said “dressing well is a form of good manners.” It only takes a minute for a person to form an opinion of you based on a first impression. Dress professionally, get a good night’s sleep, shower before the interview and do not walk in to that interview room with gum in your mouth. An unkempt appearance is a disrespectful, unprofessional and ultimately distracting to the interviewer.

Super Cool News: How to not get the job by taylor brestel The Daily Wildcat
Disclaimer: Super Cool News is a feature that shares the, yes, coolest news happening around town and around the country. Try not to take what its writers have to say too literally. Summer’s approaching and you know what that means: Time to buy lots of sunscreen, find the shorts buried at the bottom of the closet and apply for jobs and internships. Here are some helpful tips and tricks for interviews that are guaranteed to get you your dream job: 1. Show up late Is the interview at noon? Don’t bother to show up until at least 30 minutes later. This shows potential employers that you are a stand out from the other applicants. Everyone else probably showed up at their assigned time. Some may have even arrived early, but not you. They’re going to remember you. 2. Don’t show up Better yet, don’t show up at all. Worried about answering a question wrong or not saying the right thing? You
can’t mess up the interview if you’re not there to begin with. The questions are always the same anyway: “Tell me about yourself,” “What are your strengths and weaknesses?” etc. You’ve answered those questions hundreds of times. You shouldn’t have to answer them again. Trust me, you won’t miss much. 3. Dress for the job you want This career advice has been repeated over and over to people trying to find a job: Dress for the job you want, not the job you have. You probably don’t really want whatever job you’re applying for. If you do, you can just ignore the rest of this section. Don’t show up to the interview in a skirt or nice pants. Show up dressed for your dream job. Want to be Batman? There’s a costume for that. Have you always secretly dreamed of becoming a werewolf? Make a trip to your local Halloween store or head online to find the perfect outfit. 4. Make the application a puzzle Some people see filling out job applications as a chore, but try making it into a game. Creativity has become a valuable skill in the workplace. It’s now one of Forbes’ Seven Most Universal Job Skills. Companies look for individuals that have “out-of-the-box thinking” and that’s where the job application comes
in. This is your chance to show the company how creatively you can think. Where it says “name,” put something else (maybe your Social Security number). “Date of birth” is secretly a code for phone number or email address. 5. Have fun with your resume Your resume doesn’t need to be boring and dull. Print it out on bright pink paper, make the font unreadable, maybe even add some glitter. Why have one resume when you can have six all taped together to form a resume cube? No one else will have a resume cube. 6. Assert dominance: Make them come to you The absolute best way to find a job or internship is to let it come to you. You can go to all of these interviews and hope that one of the companies decides you’re a good fit, but why bother going through all that? It’s like dating. People say love will come to you when you stop looking. It’s the same with jobs and internships. If you love something, let it go. Photo Illustration by Alex McIntyre/The Daily Wildcat

First $5 Food Festival is a mixed bag for customers and vendors BYJonathan terry The Daily Wildcat
Tucson was littered with food trucks Saturday. Unfortunately, hardly any of them were at Tucson’s first $5 Food Festival at the Kino Sports Complex. The complex was riddled with hints of summer: Children ran around on the complex’s grassy field and danced to a local DJ, while their parents lounged in light casual attire. The smell of fresh, local cuisine emanated from food trucks scattered throughout the area. The event was held by Awesome & Delicious, a traveling event featuring local food vendors and boutiques. The 2016 tour takes place in twenty cities across California and Arizona. Unfortunately, low turnout left many vendors and consumers feeling underwhelmed. Still, others were enthusiastic about the event and look forward to future $5 Food Festivals. Jose Villasenor of J’s Kettle Corn is among the disaffected. He said that while the event was “not bad for the first time,” it’s unlikely he’ll be returning for future events because he was led to believe more vendors would be present. Twenty-seven vendors—both food and boutique vendors—were advertised for Saturday’s event on fivedollarfoodfest.com. Yet, many felt the event was understaffed and, with a cover charge on top of the $5 per dish, overpriced. “It was OK,” said event goer Geordi Andreasson. “Could have been better.”
Andreasson looked around at the scarcity of vendors. “At least the grass is nice,” he said. Awesome & Delicious donates a portion of its proceeds to a local community-based charity in every city it visits, which might have been the reason for the high prices. The chosen charity, however, isn’t listed on the group’s website. This doesn’t provide much comfort to the vendors either. In spite of this, some vendors, including Horacio Monserrat of Food Al Sur, were optimistic. He said consumer turnout was expected to be somewhere around 4,000 atendees but only around 1,500 showed up. Monserrat said he would be attending future events. Event goer Adelina Robinson, a vegetarian, had trouble finding something to eat despite the event’s page listing five vendors as vegetarian-friendly. She said out of the food she did manage to find, portion sizes were “more like sample sizes.” Despite this, she said she had a good time and will return to future events. “It was nice to see such a variety of people out,” said Robinson. Awesome & Delicious is in its second year of touring. While Tucson’s 2016 turnout wasn’t as predicted, it’s expected the event will continue to grow and gain popularity given Tucson’s enthusiasm toward local business.

‘Batman v. Superman’ is a superhero flick in need of saving BY Ernesto fierro The Daily Wildcat
F
or as long as the entertainment industry has existed, superhero films have relied on anticipation and admiration to create a successful movie that becomes a stepping stone for future films. “The Avengers,” for example, managed to take the superhero genre to a new level by raising the bar for other Marvel films. Unfortunately, “Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice” does not do the same. The film becomes yet another mediocre experiment distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film begins with the climatic scene from the preceding film, “Man of Steel,” in which Superman (Henry Cavill) engages in a battle with General Zod (Michael Shannon). Batman (Ben Affleck) witnesses the chaotic situation alongside the citizens of Metropolis. During the next 18 months, Superman finds himself a controversial figure because of the mass number of casualties that resulted from the battle. On the other side of the spectrum, we have Batman, who has spent his fair share of time hunting down criminals. This track record showcases an intimidating hero who relies on anger and hatred to hunt down those who have wronged others. The one thing the film does exceptionally well is portray our beloved Caped Crusader. Unlike Christopher Nolan’s Batman, which grounded our hero in a more realistic light, this Batman presents a legendary vigilante who relies excessively on combat skills and gadgets. Gal Gadot’s performance as Wonder
Warner Bros. / Atlas Entertainment / DC Comics
DC Comics heroes Batman (left) and Superman (right) stand face-to-face in this still frame from “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice,” produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, Atlas Entertainment and DC Comics. Despite showcasing two well-known superheroes, the film fails to live up to expectations.
Woman keeps the movie from becoming a failure, despite playing a minor role for most of the film. Unfortunately, avoiding complete failure does not mean avoiding disappointment. After discovering that Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) obtained kryptonite from the bottom of the Indian Ocean, Batman sets out to retrieve the material to use it against Superman. This plan fails when he encounters Superman, who lets him off with a warning. Instead of delivering over-the-top fighting scenes between two beloved DC Comics characters, the film relies heavily on discussions and arguments over Superman’s
role in the world. This is a great decision if your intention is to bore the audience. Eisenberg’s performance as Luthor disappoints, mostly because of his character’s role throughout the film. Despite coming off as a humorous and psychotic antagonist, Luthor diminishes himself with excessive, philosophical speeches directed at Superman. Bluntly, Luthor comes off as annoying rather than intimidating. After attempting to blackmail Superman into confronting Batman, Luthor captures Superman’s adoptive mother, Martha Kent (Diane Lane). What follows is a brief but intense duel between our two main
characters, which ends with Batman’s discovering the truth about Luthor’s plans. After Luthor unleashes a creature known as Doomsday, Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman must unite to take down the new super villain. “Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice” is a film that doesn’t live up to the superhero hype, especially compared to the Marvel franchise.

UA advising system needs a fix BY MARISSA HEFFERNAN The Daily Wildcat
T
he UA offers over 300 different degrees through 20 colleges and 11 schools. From Africana studies to microbiology, students can mix and match degrees, but that doesn’t mean the path is easy. In fact, students trying to double major or minor will often find that the range of different degrees causes headaches, especially when it comes to working with each department’s advisers. Academic advisers are supposed to make students’ lives easier by helping them plan classes, figure out the best times to get an internship or study abroad and ensure students are steadily working toward completing their graduation requirements. But when a student is double majoring and also has a minor, they have at least three different advisers. While each adviser is an expert in what the student’s class schedule needs to look like for a degree, there
is often little interdepartmental enough time to meet with one adviser, let alone four, before communication or understanding. it’s time to sign up for classes.

employs over 90 staff members with the title of academic adviser and many others with more specialized titles. The Honors College, which assigns students one adviser, had 4,546 students in the 20142015 school year and only six people with the title of student success counselor and one with the title of academic adviser. That’s a small number of advisers for that many students, yet as an honors student, I have never had a problem contacting my adviser. I felt my time was specialized, even though my adviser could have roughly 750 other students to advise. The student-specific method works in the Honors College, so it should operate just as well on a large scale. While there are some advantages to having an adviser that specializes in a single degree program, those benefits are outweighed by the stress, mess and confusion that degreespecific advisers end up causing for multi-field students. It’s time to reformat the way the UA handles advising.

Investing isn’t just for the rich BY SCOTT BACA

I
’ve been interested in the stock market since high school. The allure of having money making money on its own while I sat on the couch was incredibly attractive to a teenager with an intense loathing of a minimum-wage cashier job. Honestly, I had no idea how any of it worked. I liked the idea of being in the stock market and visualizing myself as Jordan Belfort. My understanding of money has grown throughout
my collegiate career as an accounting major and my desire to get into the investing game increased concurrently. Yet, I never invested anything. To go through Charles Schwab or Fidelity Investments and pay $10 per trade was out of the question for a broke college kid like me, who could only invest the $20 I won from my fantasy football league. After the fees came in, I’d have roughly $5 to invest. Why even do it? Robinhood Markets was created in 2014.

psychological diagnosis or serious mental care. It is merely a service offered to those of all stress levels and backgrounds. I’m not encouraging every student with slight test anxiety to rush to make an appointment, but I do think the stigmas associated with seeking this sort of help prevent several people who would benefit greatly from going from doing so. Part of these stigmas stem from the idea that people need to share everything they do with everyone else. A private or personal life does not exist in college, considering it’s far too easy to run into classmates and peers wherever you go. Conversations revolve around ourselves and our routines, as opposed to broader, more thought-provoking ideas. It is important to have a personal life and to be able to keep some things to yourself, as contradictory as it may seem when discussing therapy. Going to therapy does not mean having to tell others you go to therapy. It is a personal choice and allowing others’ thoughts or opinions to dictate that choice is senseless.
So why get into the market? Instead of spending $30 at a bar every weekend, why not do something a little smarter with it? Why not invest that money in the stock market? Not only will you have more money at the end of the semester, but if you pay attention to stocks and develop a sound investment strategy, you may learn a lot about how the stock market works and how to invest. Regardless of whether you make a huge return in the short term, your long-term wisdom of how money works will allow you to reap the benefits in the future. College students, on average, don’t understand the market. Even though it is essential to most people’s lives to be financially literate, formal education— unless you are an economics or finance major—doesn’t usually teach us anything about investing. Only 26 percent of people under 30 are investing in stocks, according to a poll ran by Bankrate. That makes sense when you think of this demographic’s lack of knowledge about the stock market in addition to their thin bank accounts. Fifty-three percent of young people in the same survey said they don’t invest because they don’t have enough money. That was my excuse for years and until Robinhood came along, it was pretty valid. Investing was impractical for college students before Robinhood. Since charges are levied on a per-trade basis in traditional investing companies, spending the upfront cost of $10 every time you want to buy a stock is extremely inconvenient when that could be spent on a week’s worth of ramen noodles. Because Robinhood eliminated such trade fees, people with small amounts of cash to invest can still use the service to make money and learn about the stock market. Personally, I started using Robinhood last year and my knowledge of saving and investing money has expanded immensely. Investing in the stock market in college will not only make you feel like a Ralph Lauren-clad Wall Street hot shot, it will help you save money and learn about personal finance and economics. And maybe an uptick in investment from students would assist in strengthening an unpredictable U.S. economy. Next time you’re about to drunkenly order seven Fireball shots at Maloney’s, hoping that girl next you will notice your generosity and tolerance for alcohol, think about what that $30 would look like after a year of being invested in the stock market.

Students should comfortable seeking psychological help BY Stephanie Shaw The Daily Wildcat
S
o many things that used to be taboo are now, thankfully, coming out of the woodwork. From important topics like homosexuality or menstruation to more minute issues, the world is slowly becoming more open and accepting of many parts of the human condition that used to be kept behind closed doors. Mental illness, however, and seeking mental guidance seem to still hide behind a facade of stigma and shame. Oftentimes when the term mental illness is used, people automatically revert into an uncomfortable, passive attitude. Their awkwardness displays only a sliver of the true problem. Stress is abundant in college. Between tests and thoughts of the looming future, possible family turmoil, relationship abuse or turnover, the list is endless when it comes to possible problems in a college student’s life.
As important as gratitude for our education is, it is foolish to pretend a variety of difficulties do not come with it. When the stress starts to interfere with schoolwork or sleep, it is time to take action. Though the infamous phrase “time heals all” does have some merit, certain circumstances require more than this passive approach. Social circles are ever-changing in college and whether you have a core group of friends or belong to several different circles, it is often impossible to relate to each and every one of them in the same way. When discussing issues, sometimes we just need to talk and vent. If our problems are recurring, so too is our need to vent. After a while, even the best of friends find it difficult to hear the same things repeated over again, particularly when their advice or responses do not change. This is where therapy can help. Counseling and Psych Services is a program available to all UA students. Located in the Campus Health Center, many students use its services to combat a variety of psychological issues. It is important to note, though, that seeking this sort of guidance does not mean you must receive some sort of

Improbable victory dedicated to 17-year-old Josh Weaver BY RYAN KELAPIRE The Daily Wildcat
Saturday’s series finale against UCLA was an emotional day for the Arizona baseball team. Not only did the Wildcats beat all odds, scoring five runs in the bottom of the ninth to come away with a 6-5 win and a series victory over a ranked UCLA opponent, but they did so while playing for Josh Weaver, a 17-yearold Wildcats fan who died of cancer before the season started. “Josh was a very special kid with an unbelievable personality that was just infectious to be around,” said Jimmy Van Ostrand, Arizona’s director of player development. “He’s going to be sorely missed by all the guys on our team. But the best thing I can say is that his infectious personality has rubbed off on a lot of people.” Fans in attendance were encouraged to wear yellow to commemorate the occasion, while the Wildcats wore yellow wristbands and shirts under their jerseys that read a simple message. “4Josh.” Weaver’s father threw out the ceremonial first pitch while a tribute video—created by junior outfielder Sawyer Gieseke—played on Hi Corbett Field’s brand new video board to celebrate Weaver’s impact on the team. “That was all done by our players and the idea was all done by our players and [Van Ostrand],” said Arizona head coach Jay Johnson. “Before we got into the day and the game plan and all of that, I just said, ‘Hey, stuff like that makes me really proud to be associated with this particular group of guys.’” Then, with Weaver in mind, Cameron Ming delivered the first pitch of the game. “It’s an honor,” said Ming about being the starting pitcher. “To do it in Josh’s name, I had never been able to be part of something like that. ... I think, if anything, you just kind of have that thought in your head that, ‘I want to get this done for my team and for Josh,’ and anytime you have that motivation, it works for you, not against you.” That extra motivation didn’t seem to work for the Wildcats for a majority of the game. They didn’t score their first run until the sixth inning and found themselves trailing 5-1 heading into the bottom of the ninth. But the Wildcats weren’t going to go away quietly. “I know we’re going to have a little extra something in the dugout today, knowing that you’re watching over this ballgame, so we’re going to play for you in this one,” Gieseke said before the game. “We’re going to leave it all on the field today.” And they did. The Wildcats rallied, bringing home five runs in the bottom of the ninth to complete the comeback. As the team mobbed Bobby Dalbec for delivering the game-winning hit, it was clear

THIRD BASEMAN Bobby Dalbec (3) and pitcher Cody Moffett (37) celebrate during the Wildcats’ win over UCLA at Hi Corbett Field on Saturday, March 26. Arizona dedicated its victory to Josh Weaver, a fan who died before the season began.
this was more than just a walk-off victory. The win was for Weaver, who may have been the difference in the game. “There’s no question that it was a huge inspiration for us,” said Johnson. “His family is so special. The way his mom and dad have acted has been a good example for our players and our program and it’s pretty unique and has been pretty special.” As the Wildcats’ season rolls on, Weaver’s presence and infectious personality will continue to be felt in the clubhouse.
“[Weaver’s] tradition will be carried on with all of us,” Van Ostrand said. While Weaver, as an avid Arizona baseball fan, looked up to the Wildcat players, the players have learned a thing or two from him as well. “We are forever grateful for your positivity, your impact, passion and how you competed and battled every day,” the players said in the tribute video. — Follow Ryan Kelapire @RKelapireUA

Wildcats dominate at ASU Invitational Sage Watson placed herself into UA track and field history Saturday as she placed first overall in the 400-meter race, completing the race in 52.50 seconds. The mark is the fifth-best in outdoor history for the UA program. Tatum Waggoner was close behind her teammate in the race, finishing second with a time of 53.42. Miles Parish finished first overall in the 400 on the men’s side with a time of 46.61 seconds. Arizona throwers Viktor Gardenkrans and Aaron Castle finished third and fourth, with marks of 54.86 meters and 54.52 meters, respectively. Football Pro Day draws top NFL scouts Scooby Wright III drew the most attention from Arizona football’s Pro Day. Wright ran the 40-yard dash in the mid 4.80s, according to WalterFootball, which said teams are
concerned about his “stocky upper frame but thin lower body.” Wright told reporters of his strenuous combine experience. “Indy was a whole different thing,” Wright said to Arizona Desert Swarm. “I remember one night, I had to do two MRIs and, like, six X-rays. I didn’t leave the hospital until, like, 1:30 a.m. and then I had to wake up at 3:45 a.m. to take a P.E.D. test. Then, after that day, we had all kinds of psychological tests.” Reggie Gilbert drew attention as well, measuring in at 261 pounds and 24 repetitions on the bench press, according to WalterFootball. Will Parks also had himself a day, finishing with a 4.52 in the 40-yard, a 32-inch vertical and 22 repetitions on the bench press, according to Michael Lev. “After hearing a lot of responses from scouts, I’m pretty ecstatic. … I’m pretty sure I was fast,” Parks said. All 32 NFL teams were in attendance, along with three CFL teams and the Arizona Rattlers. — Follow Matt Wall @mwall20

Time for Miller to put the pieces together ean Miller is a college basketball recruiting mastermind. Few are able to debate that statement. When all is said and done, the Arizona Wildcats will be one talented group out on the court. But Arizona will still have to compete in one of the top conferences in the Pac-12 Conference. But with so many pieces, where do they all fit?
S
currently expected to be drafted. Rawle Alkins will be another person in the mix. Defenders should watch out if Alkins gets the ball on a fast break. He was known to blow past defenders and show off some monster dunks in high school. He can also hit a step-back jumper and has the ability to knock down the 3-point shot. Terrance Ferguson and Josh Jackson are two more big question marks. It’s possible that neither will end up at Arizona, but Miller is doing everything in his power to make it happen. Ferguson would give the Wildcats a steady shooter and a go-to 3-point threat. Jackson is the top recruit in the country and can plow down defenders.
Forwards Ray Smith will be hungry after sitting out two straight seasons with ACL injuries. Smith provides an excellent spark on the wing. A lot about Smith’s play at a collegiate level is currently unknown, but his teammates should be able to rely on his leadership next season. Allonzo Trier is the biggest piece to the puzzle right now. The 6-foot-6 small forward very well could test the NBA Draft waters. Trier, however, is not
Big men Dusan Ristic, Lauri Markkanen and Chance Comanche are three players who immediately jump off the page for the Wildcats’ frontcourt. Replacing a four-year starting center will be challenging, but these three bring upsides to a young program looking for answers. Comanche impressed toward the end of 2015-2016 season after receiving little playing time from the start. Most of the time, it was the little things: a

good pass or an impressive defensive stand. But Comanche could be one of the X-factors for the UA next season. When it comes to Ristic, he had one mean post presence but obviously struggled on his defense. Most predict the 7-foot center from Serbia will start in the future. He switched off playing time with Kaleb Tarczewski for most of the season, but without Zeus in the picture, look for Ristic to pick up where he left off. Markkanen, a four-star power forward out of Finland has the chance to make an all-international frontcourt for Arizona next season. His 3-point shot will give Arizona something it hasn’t had since Channing Frye left Tucson. Look for Markkanen and Comanche to switch off playing time, unless Miller ends up grabbing another big man in the recruiting process. Guards If you thought the front court was crowded, watch out for the back court. Parker Jackson-Cartwright and Kadeem Allen will return to their general floor spots. Allen will potentially be the only senior on the roster next season, so who knows, Miller may rely on him more than ever.
Tyler Baker/The Daily Wildcat
Arizona head coach Sean Miller throws his arms upward following the Wildcats’ victory over California in McKale Center on Thursday, March 3.
Also in the mix will be Kobi Simmons, who can pass the ball off and score when it is needed. His 6-foot-3 presence gives the UA something rare in a big point guard that can defend the ball well, too. Talent is a scary thing and this
Arizona team will likely have it when the ball is tipped off in McKale Center next season.

How does plan B work? I’ve heard about it but I don’t know the details. Plan B, also known as the “morning after pill,” is taken after unprotected intercourse to prevent pregnancy. It is not the abortion pill, nor will it damage or stop an implanted pregnancy. Plan B One Step® is now the most common over-the-counter (OTC) emergency contraception (EC) on the market, containing just one pill. Plan B One Step® can reduce the risk of pregnancy by 75-89% if taken within 3 days (72 hours) of unprotected intercourse; if taken within 24 hours it’s about 94% effective. Here’s what you need to know: the sooner the pill is taken, the more effective it is. Plan B One Step® contains the progestin hormone levonorgestrel – which is found in lower doses in some birth control pills. Depending on a women’s menstrual cycle, it can work by: • Delaying or preventing ovulation (the release of an egg) • Altering the lining of the uterus – makes it more difficult for an egg to attach
There may be some temporary side effects including: headache, nausea, stomach pains, breast tenderness, and menstrual cycle changes. It’s a good idea to have it on hand in case of unprotected intercourse, a broken condom, or if a backup method of birth control failed. Emergency contraception does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and should not be used as a regular birth control method. It’s called “Plan B” for a reason. Plan B One Step® can be purchased OTC by anyone age 17 and older. The UA Campus Health Pharmacy sells the EContra EZ (generic Plan B) for $35. Ella® is another EC pill that can be taken up to 5 days after intercourse. Ella® requires a prescription and costs $34.40 at Campus Health. Have questions or want more information? Call (520) 621-6516 to speak with our knowledgeable and friendly pharmacists.
