UA ranks top in recruits University has most Peace Corps Fellows in country By Samantha Munsey ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT In addition to commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Peace Corps this year, the UA set another milestone last week, becoming the university with the most Peace Corps Fellows. There are 58 fellows enrolled at the UA studying in various departments and colleges including public heath, education and agriculture. “We’re really proud of the community we have here in Tucson,” said Grace Rice, an assistant of the UA Peace Corps Fellows. “It’s nice being recognized as the number-one fellows program in the nation.” A fellow is a former Peace Corps volunteer who has returned to the United States and is pursuing a graduate or doctoral degree. It is estimated that about 200 fellows have been enrolled in the UA’s program since it began taking applicants in 2000. The UA’s Peace Corps Fellows program remains one of the most viable in the nation to attract former volunteers by offering tuition assistance for fellows pursuing degrees. In the last few years, the program has been able to cover full base tuition for all its participants. “We are really competitive in that respect,” Rice said. “A lot of schools have different awards that they offer for being a returning Peace Corps volunteer and ours is actually one of the best.” A quarter of the fellows who are enrolled at the UA are seeking degrees in public health. Rice, who is also a graduate student in the College of Public Health, thinks this is because of former volunteers who want to help their community even after their time in the Peace Corps is

UA students Karl Hussey and Mike Reasor, understudies in the Arizona Theatre Company production of “The Mystery of Irma Vep,” rehearse scenes at the Temple of Music and Art on Thursday. In the play, two actors play six characters, including vampires and werewolves, and go through 40 costume changes.
Under-Appreciated ● UA understudies in vampire play may never show their fangs in front of an audience ● By Kathleen Roosa ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
T
he theater is dark. Audience members silence their phones and unravel their last hard candy wrappers for the imminent performance. Imagine yourself backstage — that hushed corridor, the smell of dust and wood spicing the air. The lead actor prepares to step forth, voice ready to boom from the diaphragm. It is a part you have rehearsed for months. It is a part you may never play in front of an audience. You are an understudy. For those of us not fluent in the theater arts, an understudy is an actor who studies a part so that he may replace the usual actor (aka an “upperstudy”) under circumstances like illness, loss of voice or serious injury. Take Karl Hussey and Mike Reasor, two juniors working on their Bachelor of Fine Arts in acting. Both have performed
many times in front of the curtain. You may have seen Hussey in “As You Like It” or “The Shape of Things” earlier this semester at the Arizona Repertory Theatre. Yet both young actors find themselves backstage for the Arizona Theatre Company’s production of “The Mystery of Irma Vep.” Written in 1984 by playwright Charles Ludlam, “Irma Vep” is a penny dreadful come to life — a farce mixing Victorian sensibility with Hitchcockian suspense. Lady Enid is the silly new wife to Lord Edgar and can’t seem to make sense of the stodgy maid, Jane,or the ridiculous servant, Nicodemus, not to mention the host of local vampires and werewolves. Hussey recommends the show “if you’re in dire need of a laugh and don’t mind a few corny jokes. What’s remarkable about “The Mystery of Irma Vep,” is the cast size. Two men play six parts, with about 40 costume changes.
Hussey currently understudies for Bob Sorenson, who plays Jane Twisden, as well as Lord Edgar and an intruder. Reasor is the backup for Oliver Wadsworth, making up the second half of the cast as Nicodemus, Lady Enid and Alcazar. Arizona Theatre Company noticed both actors during what is known a “cattle call” — a unified audition for all students in the acting major. Arizona Theatre Company in particular is well known for hiring UA students as understudies. For both actors, spring break 2011 ended on a high note when they were offered understudy roles in “Irma Vep.” Reasor had seen the play as a child and was excited to take part, remembering how funny the work had been. Hussey had never heard of the play. A few minutes with goodol’ Wikipedia was enough to excite him for the experience. In the past few weeks, things switched into high gear for Hussey and Reasor. Lines were
memorized, costumes fitted and the process of learning not only the role, but how their upperstudies interpret the role, began. Being a capable understudy requires a different sort of preparation than a conventional role. Instead of spending time onstage during the hours of rehearsal squeezed between classes, Hussey and Reasor could be found taking notes about blocking, directions and carefully capturing the nuances of their upperstudy’s performance. “In terms of the depth of research put into characters, I put in more for a full roll,” Hussey said. “Most of the research and choices are made from Bob (Sorenson). My job is to recreate it and mimic it. It’s like taking an outline and coloring in the lines with my own truth and discoveries.” Reasor agreed about the UNDERSTUDY, page 3

Museum holds centuries of optic advances By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Optical Sciences and opthamology professor John Greivenkamp started collecting antique telescopes eight years ago to help his students “learn the basics of optics.” Last week, what College of Optical Sciences Dean Jim Wyant calls Greivenkamp’s baby, the more than 400-piece set evolved from a collection to a museum. “It makes it a nice, attractive complement to the traditional program that we’re doing here,” said Greivenkamp, who is also the founding curator of the museum. “Once I started the collection, it really became a passion.” Along with a Bisbee, Ariz., retiree, Greivenkamp organized the

pieces that can be seen through a self-guided tour starting in the lobby on the third floor. “It’s brought in a lot of visitors and we hope it brings in a lot more,” Wyant said. Two sculptures, the “Desert Flower” and “Sphere” along with an 1850 wooden telescope barrel and a 1907 camera reside at the building entrance. The tour then goes to the eighth floor’s open-air patio windows adorned with antique optics. Down through the seventh, six, fifth and fourth floor of the optics building lie portraits of optics pioneers including Aden B. Meinel for who, the building is named, a dedication to a Nobel Prize-winning faculty member Nicolaas Bloembergen and gallery items from the 1700s to today ranging from military telescopes,
ivory monoculars, precursors to modern-day binoculars and British daguerreotypes, thought to be the first device capable of creating a photographic image. “That first telescope led to another telescope which led to another telescope,” Greivenkamp said. “I realized that I had lost touch with some of the history as well. By going through this, I educated myself.” This historical perspective is important to the mission of optical sciences, he said. “As engineers, it’s important to know where you’ve been to know where you are going, to know where the pieces fit together.” Most of the collection was procured through eBay auctions

A pair of French opera glasses, dating from the late 1800s, are on display at the new optics museum in the College of Optical Sciences building. According to John Greivenkamp, professor of optical sciences and owner of the collection on display, the glasses are made of aluminum – which was rare at the time – and, along with the hand-painted portraits in enamel, indicate that they were owned by a wealthy family.

Marana joins valley fever awareness effort By Michelle Weiss Arizona Daily Wildcat

Student-made map marks best bike routes Distracted pedestrians and zooming cars can be hazards for UA bikers, but one group has created a detailed bike map in an effort to ease their treks across campus. Four students in the School of Geography and Development created a detailed map utilizing video and GPS technology to help mark better routes for campus bikers. Group leader Melanie Meyers Colavito, a geology graduate student, said three out of the four members of her group were avid cyclers. The map was made as part of a project for a geovisualization class and the group’s passion for biking led them to create the map. Google Maps “Bike There” function released Tucson biking information in March 2010. It takes into account
starting points and destinations and advises on routes to take based on time estimates in a similar fashion to Google Maps or MapQuest. Meyers Colavito said the “Bike There” feature for the UA campus was pretty sparse and was missing some of the top bike paths through campus. That’s when her group decided to take matters into their own hands. “We looked at what Google already had up and thought we could improve upon it,” Meyers Colavito said. In order to make the map, the students utilized CatEye Inou GPS camera, which can be mounted to bicycle handlebars and shoot video and photographs. The program is GPS enabled and can determine where the bicyclist is using satellite technology. The students were able to upload their videos to YouTube. These uploaded videos and photos were embedded onto the map to

mark important biking spots around campus. The group also got feedback from other students by handing out a survey to assess their thoughts on how usable and effective the map is. Dan Majewski, a group member studying regional development, said he believes the map can create a more bike-friendly atmosphere throughout campus. “It can get more people out there on bikes being active and can help get less people driving and using up these big parking garages,” Majewski said. Meyers Colavito thinks the map will help get more people active in what she calls a very bike-friendly area of Tucson. “A lot of people ride around the university,” she said, “and the more you see people riding, the more encouraging it is to get other people out to ride.”

The UA Valley Fever Center for Excellence wants to increase awareness of valley fever before the months where infection is most prevalent — June, July, October and November. “It’s a disease we deal with here,” said Dr. John N. Galgiani, a professor of medicine and the director of the UA’s Valley Fever Center for Excellence. “It’s not something so much to be afraid of, just to know it exists.” The vast majority of infections in the United States, nearly two-thirds, occur in Maricopa, Pinal and Pima counties or the “Valley Fever Corridor.” “The Department of Health Services found that people who knew about valley fever before they got sick were more likely to be diagnosed earlier than people who didn’t know about valley fever before they got sick,” Galgiani said. “That’s one of the reasons they think awareness is a good idea.” The Valley Fever Corridor Project was designed to increase awareness about valley fever in the community through website development and community group presentations, Galgiani said. The Maricopa Association of Governments, the Tucson City Council and the town councils of Oro Valley and Marana have endorsed the program. The Town of Marana wants to help raise the awareness of the disease because it is a problem in this area, said Rodney Campbell, the town’s public information officer. “I think it’s just a good public service to help facilitate any way we can,” said Marana Mayor Ed Honea. Honea, who had the disease in the summer during his childhood, said he doesn’t remember any pain. “They tell me that the average person that gets it doesn’t even know they had it,” Honea said. The center is developed a professional organization called the Valley Fever Alliance of Arizona Clinicians, which focuses on the disease. There are 82 members that talk in a forum, refer patients or are a resource for those who need to find a doctor, Galgiani said. The most common symptoms for valley fever are similar to pneumonia. Chest pains, fever, coughing and shortness of breath can all be signs of the disease, Galgiani said. It cannot be distinguished without laboratory tests. Though valley fever doesn’t always need to be treated, it can be treated with specific antifungal drugs, he said.
“Those people that do need treatment, it gets very individualized as to what exactly they need,” he said. Galgiani estimated that approximately 100 people across the country die from the disease, though the majority of infections heal on their own. Though about 30,000 people seek medical attention for the disease every year, there is a 3 percent chance per year of being infected with the disease. About 400 patients will develop an infection going out of the lungs. This is where it starts and spreads to other parts in the body, he said. “Those are very serious infections and require lots of medical care,” Galgiani said. “The risk is small, but it’s real and it’s like anywhere you live, you want to be aware of your surroundings.”

and English antique dealers who specialize in optics equipment. Greivenkamp, who had the original idea for the collection and still maintains it, holds the discretionary funding through various industrial donors to continue to add to the collection. He said adding depth and breadth to the museum would serve best its mission to show “the beauty of the science and engineering of light.” Broadening the museum to include telescopes dating further back into the 1600s and more photography equipment and scientific instruments would strengthen the collection, according to Greivenkamp. He also said that no matter the background of the viewer, whether involved in optics or not, the museum has something for them to enjoy — and that with time, he hopes more people will join him in expanding the museum. “It’s more than a collection, it’s a museum,” Greivenkamp said. “We hope that eventually donors will look here for a good home for some of their treasures.”
completed. “I think a lot of people come out of the Peace Corps wanting to continue their service, and want to keep working for the non-profit or human services field,” Rice said. Ashley Raasch, a fellow seeking a Master of Fine Arts degree in photography, served as a volunteer in Paraguay from 2006 to 2008 before returning to school. Raasch choose to join the fellows program because she decided she wanted to continue her education after ending her stint with the Peace Corps. “A lot of the reasons why I like it here is because of the fellows program,” Raasch said. “It’s nice to know that you are surrounded with people who have gone through similar experiences.” In order to remain an active member in the program, fellows are required to intern at various nonprofit or human service organizations for the duration of their studies. Each fellow must complete as least 450 service hours per year. These hours do not include service projects run through the fellows program. “We have done service projects with a huge variety of organizations in Tucson, and we really appreciate and value those connections,” Rice said. The Peace Corps Fellows also host a few events on campus every year including the Peace Corps Fair that takes place the first week in March. This year for the fair, the Fellows created an art exhibit that showcased the time they spent in the Peace Corps. The exhibit is currently on tour at various library locations in Tucson.

UNDERSTUDY continued from page 1 importance of mimicking the lead actor while also infusing a bit of personality to make the role seem natural. “There’s a huge amount of flexibility taken away as understudies compared to a role onstage,” Reasor said. “You come in as an upperstudy during the rehearsal process with choices made. As an understudy, I come

in ready to watch, ready to observe and mimic to the best of my ability.” Though they might never stand in front of a sold-out house, there is no lack of respect when it comes to being an understudy. “All actors have understudied at some time,” stated Reasor simply. “It’s a job without recognition, but it’s so needed.” The big question is, why
would someone ever go to so much effort and spend so much time for such a slight chance of being onstage? It seems like a lot of work for little payoff. “It’s about the experience and learning to become a stronger actor,” said Hussey earnestly. Both Hussey and Reasor raved about the opportunity to watch lead actors Sorenson and Wadsworth, as well as being under the direction of artistic director
David Ira Goldstein and every individual they come in contact with in the theater environment. “There’s a lot of great experience from watching the upperstudies, to see the process and how flexible they are,” Reasor said. Ultimately, it’s an intimate experience in which two students learn to work seamlessly together. “The Mystery of Irma Vep” is the first time Hussey and Reasor have worked together beyond
the classroom. “You have to have confidence in your partner,” Reasor said. “Everyone knows the show, so we can always bail each other out.” “The Mystery of Irma Vep” opened on April 9 at the Temple of Music and Art and runs through April 30. In the meantime, we’ll try to not admit that we’re hoping for the lead actors to catch a 24-hour flu so we see just how talented an understudy can be.

EDITORIAL Day of Silence reminds us to count our blessings
T
oday marks the Day of Silence, in which participants take a daylong vow of silence as part of a national effort to “speak” out against the harassment of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning community. The Day of Silence comes as a timely reminder of how lucky many citizens are in both social settings and at a statewide, legislative level. This week, Arizona lawmakers approved Senate Bill 1188, which, if signed by Gov. Jan Brewer, would give preference to married couples looking to adopt a child. The bill states that “in determining who can best meet the child’s needs, the division or agency shall give primary consideration to an adoptive placement with a married man and woman if all other relevant factors demonstrate that placement with that married man or woman is in the child’s best interests.” It doesn’t explicitly prohibit adoption by a single person or unmarried couple, but directs the Department of Economic Security and private adoption agencies to select a married couple when placing a child, if all other factors are equal. In other words, single people will have to try really hard if they want to adopt a kid, and gay couples just shouldn’t bother since they can’t get married in this state. While the bill doesn’t actually say either of those things, its language is an obvious giveaway that the Arizona Legislature would, prefer that married heterosexual couples be given priority over all other candidates for placing children in homes. “I think the good Lord and Mother Nature have determined that it takes a man and a woman to create a new life,” said state Rep. Judy Burges, a sponsor of the bill, told the East Valley Tribune. “That simply cannot happen between a man and man or a woman and a woman. And the good Lord has also determined that the best union is that of a marriage between a man and a woman.” While someone clearly needs to explain to Burges that the ability to have straight sex doesn’t make you a good parent, she also fails to acknowledge a 2010 study published in the journal Pediatrics suggesting that lesbian couples tend to raise as well or better-adjusted children who also have fewer behavioral problems than straight couples. According to state Rep. Justin Olson’s justification for the adoption bill, single parents do “tremendous work,” but “our family structure has been under attack for decades.” Olson’s justification suggests a narrow definition of what qualifies as a “family structure,” in which single parents or same-sex parents somehow provide an inadequate “structure” for children. Furthermore, the legislation supposes that there are enough married couples interested in adopting to go around for every child that needs to be placed, and dismisses the idea that a single parent or unmarried couple (same-sex or not) could provide just as warm and loving a home as any married couple could. As the UA observes the Day of Silence today, along with campuses across the nation, many people should consider themselves grateful for the ability to get married, adopt children or go about their daily lives without being concerned about other people legislating their personal lives. If you’re a heterosexual person, consider observing today’s Day of Silence in solidarity. Countless LGBTQ individuals must be silent every day about whom they love, or risk persecution not just from their peers but, as S.B. 1188 and laws of its ilk show, from their elected leaders, as well. By being silent for a scant 24 hours, you might just get a sense of how painful it would be to spend your life that way. And hopefully, you’ll understand just how privileged those whose sexuality never interferes with their ability to live their lives freely are. Join a community in its fight for fairness, security and recognition, and take a rare and prime opportunity to examine the ways in which you are privileged and free. — Editorials are determined by the Daily Wildcat editorial board and written by one of its members.

MAILBAG ‘Into the Woods’ review effective, informative
In the April 13 issue of the Arizona Daily Wildcat, I read an article written by Heather Price-Wright. The article discussed the Arizona Repertory Theatre’s production of “Into the Woods.” I am a student in the Theatre Appreciation class, so this article immediately caught my attention with its title, “Once ‘Into the Woods,’ be prepared to stay awhile.” I found this title funny, informative and also effective. It helped me not only realize I need to clear three hours of my Saturday afternoon for this production, but things to watch for in the play. I truly had no idea what I was in for until Heather filled me in on some ups and downs of the play. Since the lighting, music and costume choices are a main focal point for my assigned viewing of this production, I found this article helpful in giving me some perspective. Heather talks
about how some costumes negatively affect the singing of some of the actors and actresses — exactly something I can look out for when viewing the production! Heather’s article did not bash the production in any way, even though she made it seem especially long. Heather actually gave the entire production team enormous amounts of credit on several occasions for their determination and unique style. Overall, I was pleased to hear that an individual, who showed no bias or signs of being a theatre buff, was writing an article about a play I have to see. Her down to earth approach, and catchy title, made this an effective article. — Joseph Nieves Political science major
UA’s limited degree options frustrate students The
UA needs
to
provide
specialized majors. The main focus on science and math here is definitely noted, but it frustrates me that a school so medically driven doesn’t offer a specified physical therapy program. I don’t understand how we can have such a successful student-based hospital (UMC) and not offer a major in physical therapy. Physical therapy is used in almost every medical recovery yet UA doesn’t offer it as a career path for its students? The closest option for a physical therapy focus is Northern Arizona University or Arizona State University, which are not medicalbased schools. With this being said, it really blows my mind that the UA doesn’t offer this specific degree. I believe the school would have more students come to it if it offered some more specialized degree options. — Alissa Booth Sociology major

Justifications for ‘BS 1070’ can’t replace action Elisa Meza Arizona Daily Wildcat
I
’m calling you out, Arizona. This tantrum you’re throwing to do what is “just” for your terrain, despite federal regulations, sounds too revolutionary for me and is definitely causing a ruckus. Cut it out. I’m talking about that one bill you passed last year that caused all this mess about whether or not states should have the right to create their own immigration laws. I’m talking about B.S. 1070. Whoops, I’m sorry, I meant S.B. 1070. As of this week, our country’s most controversially, ill-versed, politically selfish, ridiculous immigration bill, S.B. 1070, was blocked by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals after Gov. Jan Brewer attempted to appeal a federal judge’s injunction against it on July 29, 2010. U.S. District Court Judge Susan Bolton’s injunction was supported by the Ninth Circuit, which found that, “there is sufficient evidence to believe that the blocked provisions unconstitutionality infringe on the federal government’s exclusive power to make immigration laws,” according to the Tucson Sentinel. The three-judge panel’s decision also stated that, “By imposing mandatory obligations on state and local officers, Arizona interferes with the federal government’s authority to implement its priorities and strategies in law enforcement, turning Arizona officers into state-directed DHS (Department of Homeland Security) agents.” The infringements they’re referring to deal with how police in Arizona will become your friendly neighborhood twoin-one cop/Border Patrol liaisons. Police officers would then have the ability to spot “border crossers” after taking magical
resume-builder workshops on how to tell an undocumented Mexican from one with papers. It sounded dumb then, and sounds even dumber now. Arizona has been made fun of for nearly an entire year. We’re that one state that does ridiculous things for ridiculous reasons. Instead of calling out the ridiculousness, though, most people within even the state itself simply stick their heads in the sand and pretend that it’ll just go away. I know you probably wish it did. I know I do each day. But it shouldn’t be ignored. Especially right now.
“
Arizona has been made fun of for nearly an entire year. We’re that one state that does ridiculous things for ridiculous reasons.
”
We attend a university that students fled from due to this bill. We are now a university that is avoided by students across the world in fear of the political climate; ”fear” being the key word. Whether you agree with the bill’s provisions or not, fear is never something we should be complacent with. But no matter what our campus seems to do, the state that wants to declare itself capable of fixing a homeland security issue,
nothing is granted in our favor. Remember when UA President Robert Shelton came out with a memorandum on S.B. 1070 on April 29, 2010, that said, “We intend to put in place whatever procedures are necessary to ensure their (international students, faculty and professional staff) safety and free movement on campus and in our community”? Or when the Associated Students of the University of Arizona shunned the bill with a resolution that is still the only one listed on the Senate Resolution page online? Representatives throw words out to justify their support in moments when we needed to hear something from those we think have power. Then we get disillusioned by their prose, their stances and their professionalism and forget what it means to put words to action. Don’t ever believe a campus can’t be politicized, because it’s too late for that now. We are in the center of what is revolutionary in America. Instead of participating in existing state movements to protect communities from laws like S.B. 1070, we have campus representatives spitting out justifications for unjust laws. Don’t give me encouraging words and promises for “implemented procedures” to protect a community from fear-mongering state politicians. Give me visual reaffirmation. And I’ll apologize on behalf of Arizona for not listening to you ahead of time. In the end, if a state can claim patriotism in the idea of seceding from a country that has done nothing to protect its borders, who’s to say a university can’t do the same? And hey, we live in Arizona, where anything is possible. Now, I’m not encouraging a Civil War style student outbreak. But I am encouraging one thing. That’s action. — Elisa Meza is a junior studying English. She can be reached at letters@wildcat.arizona.edu.

Babcock room burglarized
A male UA student’s dorm room was burglarized on April 12 after the resident’s roomate forgot to lock his door. The burglary occurred between the hours of 2 and 5 p.m., when he and his rommate had left their room in Babcock Residence Hall. One of the residents said that he left the room in the morning for class around 9:30 a.m. His roommate was still sleeping in the room so he closed the door as he left. When he returned at 5 p.m., he noticed that his laptop computer was no longer on his bed where he left it, some clothes were thrown around the room and his Xbox 360 was missing. He then realized that someone had entered the room to steal his property, and called the University of Arizona Police Department. The roommate said that he was in the room until 2 p.m. When he left, he closed the door but was not sure if he had locked it. As the officer was checking the room for evidence, there were personal care items, clothing and trash all over the room. A mattress was thrown to the floor on one side of the room; however, both residents say that this is how the room normally appears. There was no evidence in the room, so the officer checked the door and found no signs of it being forced open. The handle was still locked, but the officer learned that the residents never use the deadbolt. The resident whose laptop and Xbox were stolen said that he would take part in future criminal proceedings if the perpetrator was found. The resident assistant on scene was briefed of the incident.

Two non-UA affiliated men raced on Campbell Avenue on April 9 and were subsequently booked. Around 9 a.m., a UAPD officer on patrol observed to vehicles racing south on Campbell Avenue toward Mabel Street. The two vehicles were travelling in excess of 50 mph. The officer called in the incident and pulled one of the vehicles over at the Taco Bell on the corner of Speedway Boulevard. “That (other car) had been following me for a long time,” the driver said. He admitted to racing the vehicle and only slowed down when he saw the police. The officer cited and released the driver for racing on highways, driving faster than prudent and no registration. An additional UAPD officer caught up with the other suspected vehicle on Sixth Street. The second driver was also charged with the same driving violations.

Members of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity were warned to stop throwing water balloons after an anonymous caller reported their car being hit by a balloon on April 7. At 5:32 p.m., a UAPD officer responded to the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority house where the incident was reported. Upon arrival, the officer noticed numerous male and female subjects on the roof of the sorority and several burst water balloons in the alleyway north of the house. The officer spoke with some members and learned that the two chapters were engaging in “Water Wars,” where they were throwing water balloons and getting into water gun fights with each other. Because bystanders were being struck by balloons and shot with water guns, the officer advised the members of both houses to stop. Immediately, the sorority members said that they would cease participation in the event and have everyone leave the roof. The FIJI members at the sorority house left and were advised to not throw balloons from their roof upon returning to their house. All members said they understood as they left. Howver, around 8:10 p.m., UAPD dispatch said that it was reported that FIJI was on the roof squirting passing vehicles with water guns. A witness saw a fraternity member on the roof pretend to shoot another member on the ground but instead shot at cars passing on First Street. The officer spoke with a member of Phi Gamma Delta’s executive board, who said that he had not been aware that any members had been on the roof since returning from the sorority house. Because of the complaint, the officer notified UA Greek Life of the situation and told the members of FIJI to cease their behavior. The member agreed to let the house know. A code of conduct referral was forwarded to the Dean of Students Office for the entire fraternity.

Paige Blazer
Pepperdine student What is a green environment and why are you in Wildcat territory? Green environment is the future. Think green and grow your mind! Model for Change is a campaign someone started to promote green and environmental changes around college campuses. There isn’t much green here … I see a little bit of grass, it’s a start. What can we do to be more “green?” Basic stuff: recycle, turn off the lights, use biodegradable materials, hopefully solar power will start being used a lot more. I’m a huge environment nerd. It’s embarrassing. Nerdiest moment ever? There have been too many of those, I don’t want to embarrass myself on another campus. Another campus? Yeah, the people in San Diego thought I was on acid or something when I tried yelling about the earth and to recycle. What do you care about more than the environment? Um … ice cream, celebrities, clothes; the typical stuff. Would you give up those things if everyone promised to recycle everything they owned? Well, that’s a huge compromise but I might take one for the planet. Do you consider yourself like the character “Sailor Moon?” Dude, I am Sailor Earth. Fighting for a better environment with pigtails and anime, for sure.

Taco Bell tests taco shell made entirely of Doritos Chips on the side have nothing on this fast-food creation. Mexican chain restaurant Taco Bell is reportedly testing the Doritos Locos Tacos, a taco shell made entirely of nacho cheese Doritos. “Shut the front door and hand me a bib and some wet wipes to wipe the flavored dust from my trembling mouth!” blogger MB Quirk celebrated in The Consumerist. The buzz surrounding the cheesy creation stems from the discovery of a July video making the viral rounds across the Web.
In the footage, the willing taste tester exclaims that the taco is “everything I expected and more.” But not everyone is overtly impressed, considering that when it comes to extreme eats, Taco Bell has set the bar pretty high for itself. “Much has been made of extreme food recently, what with KFC’s Double Down and Denny’s new bacon holocaust rippling through the Internet,” Stephen Reader wrote for Death and Taxes. “Taco Bell, by contrast, has been crazy forever.
In fact, Doritos Locos Tacos represent a relatively tame outing for the faux-Mexican chain.” So far only a handful of trial runs have been noted. Food blog GrubGrade released photos of the zesty taco shell taken in Toledo, Ohio, and other reports mention Taco Bell locations in Wichita, Kan. There is no indication that Taco Bell will make the Doritos Locos Tacos nationally available, according to Foodbeast.

Leo’s fate decided Tuesday By Mike Schmitz Arizona Daily Wildcat
Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat
Robert Golden, who moved from cornerback to safety after Adam Hall went down with an ACL injury, is one of the many Wildcat defensive backs that returns next season with experience. He, alongside fellow soon-to-be senior Trevin Wade, have a newfound focus that has helped reinvigorate a secondary that struggled last year. The defense will take on the offense in Arizona’s annual spring game on Saturday at Arizona Stadium.
Talented secondary hopes to lead way for blossoming ‘D’ By Alex Williams Arizona Daily Wildcat Cornerback Trevin Wade knows that fans will show up to Saturday’s spring game hoping to see big plays on offense. “We’re going to do our part, and if that’s dominating, then that’s that,” Wade said. “I’m sure (the fans) just come out to see the offense score points. I just want to see us play hard and get a lot of interceptions.” That’s why he hopes he won’t be hearing many cheers from the few thousand expected to be in attendance. Despite glaring struggles in 2010, Wade appears to have returned to the form that earned him a place on the All-Pac-10 second team as a sophomore in 2009 — starring in Arizona’s only other open scrimmage of the spring, nabbing two interceptions. Wade, a native of Round Rock, Texas, hasn’t been the only one to impress in spring camp. In fact, most of the defense has played well — giving head coach Mike Stoops a reason to be optimistic about the unit in 2011. “Our defense, I feel great about the way we’re playing,” Stoops said. “I think our secondary is
if you go What: Arizona football spring game Where: Arizona Stadium When: Saturday, 1:30 p.m. the best collective group we’ve had. We’re going to put a lot of pressure on our secondary guys, this is one of our better athletic groups.” The defense’s success has senior quarterback Nick Foles and the rest of the Arizona offense excited for a chance at redemption on Saturday. “The big goal is to move the ball down the field and put the ball in the end zone,” Foles said. “We just need to get everybody involved. Treat it no differently (than a game). It’s the only time we really get to simulate a game experience for our younger guys.” A big goal for Stoops is to get those younger players into game situations and have them react to different down-and-distances — specifically the offensive line, featuring four players that have
never started a game. “A lot will be said about our offensive line, but I like the progress these guys have made,” Stoops said. “We can’t take nearly the (number of) sacks we took a year ago. It’s good for players to understand situational work. Whether it’s short-yardage, long-yardage, just the game mechanics.” Though the spring game won’t be run as an actual game with two completely separate teams — it will be strictly an offense vs. defense scrimmage — the Wildcats’ underclassmen will get plenty of work. Stoops said that they will run “somewhere between 80 and 100 plays,” and veterans such as Foles, Juron Criner and Keola Antolin will be among the first players taken out of the glorified scrimmage — opening the door for Arizona’s youth to get on the field. Though Stoops admittedly isn’t a big fan of the spring game environment, he knows what to look for when the Wildcats take the field at Arizona Stadium for their final practice of spring. “We’re just going to get some of those players experience playing out in front of a crowd,” he said. “You just want to see your offense and defense go about their business. Just hope we execute well.”
Baseball to face UCLA’s big arms By Dan Kohler Arizona Daily Wildcat The No. 20 Arizona baseball team hits the road for a threegame series with the No. 23 UCLA Bruins. Arizona’s (22-11, 4-5 Pacific 10 Conference) biggest weakness early on in conference play has been the bullpen, and that will need to improve against the Bruins (17-11, 7-2 Pac-10) this weekend.
Bruin brutality
The UCLA pitching staff is dynamite, plain and simple. To put it in perspective, UCLA ranks third in the nation with a team ERA of 2.12 Saturday starter Trevor Bauer (6-1) also leads the nation with 97 strikeouts to complement his 1.67 ERA over 64.7 innings pitched this year. The dominant right-hander has thrown at least 10 strikeouts in six of his seven starts over the season. If that wasn’t enough for the Arizona hitters to be concerned with, they’ll face starter Gerrit Cole on Friday, who has a 1.74 ERA and 64 strikeouts over 57 innings of work this season. If any team is capable of bringing down one of the nation’s top 1-2 punches, it’s Arizona. The Wildcats are third in the nation with a team batting average of .342 and the 248 runs scored this season positions them at No. 12 in the country. Arizona sophomore Joey Rickard is tied for first in the

Sophomore relief pitcher Vincent Littleman has been one of the many Wildcat arms used in the later innings as head coach Andy Lopez tries to piece together a respectable bullpen. The relievers will need to keep games close this weekend considering Arizona’s offense is faced with the difficult challenge of going against UCLA starters Trevor Bauer and Gerrit Cole.
country with 59 hits and leads the team with an impeccable .428 batting average.
Bullpen, bullpen, bullpen
It’s starting to sound like a broken record, but the Arizona bullpen is still not doing its job. “Our issue right now is who’s going to get us to Chaffee,”
Arizona head coach Andy Lopez said. “You look at Chaffee’s walk to strikeout ratio, it’s phenomenal, but we have to get to him and we’ve got to get to him with the lead.” According to Lopez, the bridge to Chaffee should be junior Bryce Bandilla and sophomore Nick Cunningham, but
both have struggled of late, highlighted by Bandilla’s 19 walks in 23.1 innings. Regardless of his numbers, Lopez remains positive about Bandilla. “We saw some good things out of Bandilla,” Lopez said this week. “He threw two BASEBALL, page 11
The Arizona club hockey team will announce its decision regarding the organizational structure of the program on Tuesday, according to Vice President of Student Affairs Frank Farias. “We don’t want to go public with any information at this time,” Farias said. “But everything is in the best interest our students at the University of Arizona at this time.” Farias declined to comment on the specific changes taking place, but according to several former and current players, the Icecats are expected to move on from head coach Leo Golembiewski, who started the program in 1979. Golembiewski controls nearly every facet of the Icecats program from funding to corporate sponsors, but the students are joining with the Campus Recreation to potentially gain financial backing in hopes of turning Arizona club hockey into a more traditional club team. That decision is expected to come via press release sometime Tuesday, after Farias holds private meeting at 4 p.m. on Tuesday to finish up discussions and make sure that everyone involved is on the same page. “We’ve done all of our due diligence in making sure that before we go public we have all of our facts and all of our decisions finalized and make sure that we’ve had an opportunity to discuss all of these things with the people that are involved.”
Why the forfeits?
’Cats punished for breaking participation limit By Zack Rosenblatt Arizona Daily Wildcat Going into its match against the Washington Huskies on March 27, the Arizona women’s tennis team had a 15-3 record and a No. 31 overall ranking. From that game on, things have gone downhill. Following a closely contested 4-3 loss to the Huskies, the Wildcats went on to get shut out by California 7-0. While the women will probably never admit to being fatigued or overworked, it’s possible that they were, considering the team violated NCAA legislation that restricts the amount of time collegiate athletes can participate in their sport. According to NCAA Bylaw 17.1.6.1, “a student athlete’s participation in countable athletically related activities shall be limited to a maximum of four hours per day and 20 hours per week.” A countable activity is defined in bylaw 17.02.1 as “any required activity with an athletics purpose involving student-athletes and at the direction of, or supervised by one or more of an institution’s coaching staff (including strength and conditioning coaches).” As a result of these restrictions, the team was forced to forfeit three games, the first one being an April 2 match at Stanford. The team proceeded to announce its intentions to forfeit two more Pacific 10 Conference matches against Southern California and in-state rival ASU. “Because some of our studentathletes completed their maximum participation limits, we were not able to field a team,” said head coach Vicky Maes. “It meant we only had three players with paticipation left. As a result, the matches could not have been won, and it made no sense to play the last events.” The lack of players available to participate led to an unfortunate 7-0 sweep at the hands of TENNIS, page 11

’Cats pitchers to face fierce No. 8 Washington bats Huskies visit Hillenbrand for Pac-10 home opener season. Freshman Kaitlin Inglesby has been dominant at times, posting a 1.78 ERA en route to a 17-2 record. The Huskies are also one of only eight teams in the nation with two players to be named to the top-25 finalists for the 2011 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year Award. Senior shortstop Jenn Salling and junior first baseman Niki Williams are both on the list. Salling is hitting .404 this season and Williams boasts an average of .441 with a teamleading 10 home runs. Arizona is another one of those eight teams with two players on the top 25 list. Senior outfielder Brittany Lastrapes and sophomore pitcher Kenzie Fowler both made the list. Lastrapes has been brilliant in the leadoff spot this season. Her .469 batting average is third in the Pac-10 and she leads the conference with 60 hits. Fowler has been outstanding in the circle this season with a 1.69 ERA and 170 strikeouts. She has allowed just four earned runs in 22.2 innings of Pac-10 play. She is also the only Pac-10 pitcher on the Player of the Year list.
By Tyler Johnson ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Arizona softball team is set to face the No. 8 Washington Huskies in its first home Pacific 10 Conference action at Hillenbrand Stadium this weekend. The No. 7 Wildcats currently sit in first place in the Pac-10 with a 5-1 record. Washington is one game back at 4-2 after losses to California and Oregon. The Wildcats’ defense — which has surrendered just eight runs in its first six Pac-10 games — will face one of its toughest tests of the season. The Huskies are third in the nation in team batting average and first in average runs per game. Washington also boasts one of the best offensive players in the nation in junior outfielder Kimi Pohlman. The Huskies’ center fielder is currently batting .492 — good for seventh in the nation — with a teamleading 17 stolen bases. The Wildcats have previously fared well against high average hitters. Arizona’s pitchers held Stanford’s Ashley Hansen, who leads the nation with a .541 batting average. Washington’s pitching staff has also performed well this
Billionaire Burkle exploring buying Kings MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE NEW YORK — A stunning new proposal to buy the Sacramento Kings or bring another team to the city emerged on Thursday, even as the Maloof family moved closer to taking the Kings to Anaheim. Southern California billionaire and Democratic fundraiser Ronald Burkle is exploring buying the Kings, Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson said on Twitter. The Maloofs have vowed never to sell the team and repeated that pledge on Thursday. “It does not matter. They’re not going to sell the team,” said Troy Hanson, a team spokesman. Should they refuse to deal with Burkle, sources say Burkle also is exploring purchasing another team and moving them to Sacramento.

Sophomore Baillie Kirker and the rest of Arizona’s lineup will need to be on top of their game this weekend when the Wildcats host No. 8 Washington. The Huskies have one of the best offenses in the nation, led by outfielder Kimi Pohlman’s .492 batting average.
TENNIS continued from page 10
The New Orleans Hornets, a troubled franchise literally taken over by the league last year, would be a likely candidate for relocation. Sources said Burkle’s representative, longtime Sacramento lobbyist Darius Anderson, presented the plan alongside Johnson to the NBA Board of Governors meeting. They were accompanied by Tim Romani of the ICON Group, the development firm hired by the city to study the feasibility of a new arena. Building a new arena in Sacramento, to replace outdated Power Balance Pavilion, would be crucial to any NBA future in Sacramento. “Part of this is my personal passion for Sacramento,” said Anderson, who would be an investor in the project. “I can’t sit idly by and let this happen.”
UCLA, in what would wind up being the Wildcats’ final home match of the season. In the match against the No. 8 ranked Bruins, the Wildcats were only able to field enough players for two doubles matches and five singles, as opposed to the standard three doubles and six singles. Sarah Landsman, Susan Mc Rann and Jane Huh, who all typically participate in every match, were held out of the match, and as a result the team struggled. Junior Deborah Castany and sophomore Elizabeth Hammond filled in for the missing players. In the last six matches, the team has now lost three games and forfeited three games. That certainly is not the way a team wants to enter the Pacific 10 Championships or the NCAA Tournament, but Maes is not too concerned. If anything, she considers all this extra rest a blessing in disguise. DISCOVERING UA
Book festival grows
“I feel our team will benefit from this break,” Maes said. “Don’t get me wrong. We would rather be playing, but we need to move forward, and the very positive effect this will have on our group is that they will be rested and they will be hungry.” Since the Pac-10 tournament is an individual event and there is no team scoring, the tournament will be used as preparation of sorts for the upcoming NCAA Tournament. According to Maes, if the Wildcats, ranked at No. 29 currently, maintain that ranking into the NCAA tournament, they will still be in pretty good shape. “(The Pac-10 tournament) is a good opportunity for our girls to get some really strong individual matches in preparation for the postseason,” Maes said. “We have a good chance to make it through the first round. In the second round, we would play a school ranked in the top 16, so it’s hard to predict, but surely our group is capable of beating a big team.” MAIN GATE SQUARE

Just a few short weeks after coming off a broken finger that kept him in the dugout through the start of the season, Arizona preseason AllAmerican Steve Selsky is out with a pulled hamstring that he sustained during the intrasquad game on Tuesday. Despite being Arizona’s top hitter last season, Selsky hasn’t quite found his rhythm hitting just .222 in 15 starts since his return. No timetable has been set for his recovery, but Lopez confirmed that Selsky wouldn’t travel with the team to UCLA this weekend.
