Erica Clevenger had a few words ringing in her head on the last lap of the USA Triathlon Collegiate Club National Championships. “This is my house. This is my realm and this is what I’m good at,” Clevenger recalled. Those words would make the difference as she outpaced her competitor Kelly Kosmo from
UCLA to win the women’s Olympic-distance national championship with a time of 2:15:50 in Clemson, South Carolina. “I knew going into it that I had a shot at the championship and ... my goal in the race was to have confidence and believe in myself,” Clevenger said. “It’s easy to doubt yourself, especially starting behind as I usually do because

All four former Wildcats said they were honored, proud and excited to be contributors to the impressive several weeks of coverage done by their large team. “It was a really big team effort and I just feel lucky that I could be a part of it,” Mejia said. Each said covering the event was difficult and emphasized the importance of remembering that each situation is difficult for those impacted when reporting and gathering information. “I think for a lot of us who spoke with the victims’ families, it’ll always be a little bittersweet because you’ll be remembering this only happened because this terrible thing happened.” Gerber said.

UA marketing students hope to combat the divide between the community and those in law enforcement through campus communication

UNDERSTAND A REAL RED TAG
The Daily Wildcat
UA marketing students are working to compete nationally to restore trust in the justice system by inviting students to look beyond the badge and red tag a cop car. One UA marketing class is participating in a national advertising campaign competition hosted by EdVenture Partners and this year’s theme for the competition is the Department of Justice. The goal for the campaign is to foster trust among community members and those within the justice system. Mataya VandenBerge, a marketing senior, is the head of the Beyond the Badge project. The program’s goal is to showcase the dedication of those in law enforcement and encourage UA students to take a look beyond the badge of police officers and others associated with the law. “Specifically with our Red Tag Event, we really wanted to create a fun, open atmosphere that draws people on campus to come and check out what we’re doing,” VandenBerge said. Students will have the opportunity to “red tag” a cop car on the UA mall by writing questions and comments for the University of Arizona Police Department officers on a red sticky note and placing it on the squad car. Students have the option to leave their contact information or
• A red tag is a citation of a residence for hosting an unruly gathering • Police are allowed to contact Dean of Students if a student gets a red tag on their house • Avoid a red tag: Keep the noise down, alert your neighbors ahead of time so they don’t call the cops, don’t let minors drink alcohol You can red tag a cop on April 27 at the UA Mall from 11-2 p.m. remain anonymous. The inspiration for the project’s name came from the group’s goal for others to see that police officers are more than just a badge, according to Katelyn Pollard, a marketing junior. Pollard is in charge of the campaign’s social media presence for the competition. “It’s more than a badge,” Pollard said. “They’re actual people.” VandenBerge said she hopes to create buzz on the Mall on Wednesday and pique the interest of some students as they walk around campus. “When someone walks by and sees the cop car full of red tags, which is something that has a

negative connotation, we hope they’ll stop and ask, ‘What’s that?’” VandenBerge said. “We’re trying to take the negative connotation from red tags and make it positive by having their questions answered.” VandenBerge said they’ll also have a photo booth, prizes and snacks at the event. Beyond the Badge will also host a law enforcement panel on Thursday where students can ask questions and get time to get to know the officers one-on-one. One reason there’s not a lot of trust in the justice system, according to Pollard, is because of miscommunication between students and law enforcement. “If students are just able to ask
questions and leave comments, it opens the floor for communication and it allows barriers to be broken down and questions to be answered,” she said. Pollard said she thinks it’s important to hold events like Beyond the Badge on campus because she feels students can sometimes get caught up in the way the media portrays the justice system. “It’s so easy to focus on the negative and forget about all the good that the Department of Justice does for us,” Pollard said. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos thinks community members should realize those who carry a badge are just like everyday people. “We’re human beings too,” Nanos said. “We have families. We enjoy going out to events, whether it be a football game or a basketball game, or going to a bar and getting a beer with friends.” Nanos said it’s important for law enforcement to connect with not only college students but the rest of the community as well. Nanos said the uniform can be intimidating and create a barrier. “I think once people come and talk to us, they realize just how unintimidating [we] are,” Nanos said.

ASUA OPEN NIGHT A place where students can share their experiences dealing with adversity at the UA When: April 26 at 5:30 p.m. Where: Kiva Room at the Student Union Memorial Center RSVP suggested Free cookies and pizza will be provided SAM GROSS/THE DAILY WILDCAT
KEVYN BUTLER, a dance senior, co-president of the Black Student Union and leader of the Marginalized Students of the UA, speaks to other protesters outside of Old Main on March 8. Butler and other students associated with MSUA spoke out against the “lack of diversity” at the UA.
ASUA to host open forum on diversity BY CHASTITY LASKEY The Daily Wildcat
The Associated Students of the University of Arizona will open the floor for all students wanting to share their experiences with the UA in a safe space during the ASUA Diversity and Inclusion Open Night. ASUA will host its Open Night, which will be open to the entire campus community, Tuesday evening in the Kiva room at the Student Union Memorial Center. “It’s about giving students the opportunity to share their college experience as they have overcome adversity,” said Fernanda Bueno, senior studying speech, language and hearing sciences and ASUA diversity director. Bueno said she and the rest of the diversity committee have been working on this event since February. The committee looked at plans for how they can provide a space for students to safely explain themselves and their experiences. She said this is a chance for not only under-represented students, but the whole campus, to come and have the chance to listen, learn and understand. “I think supporting one another, especially as college students, is important,” Bueno said. “We’re all at the phase

in our lives where we are constantly learning from others.” Bueno added that the event will focus on individuals with invisible and visible disabilities who can share their experiences and life perspective. “There is a lot going on campus centered around diversity issues, and I think it’s important to address those things by having people share their experiences,” Bueno said. Erika Ackerman, a sophomore studying biomedical engineering, said she thinks that even though the campus is diverse, the university could definitely improve its diversity and awareness. “If we’re all the same then we won’t be able to work, share and learn new things from one another,” Ackerman said. “But if we’re all from different places and experience different things, it enhances everyone’s ability to learn, collaborate and expand our horizons.” Bueno said anyone can attend and they don’t have to have a disability or come from a diverse background because they can be there to educate themselves on how other people live. This can promote understanding of multiple life experiences, not one of which is the right or better way to live.
Ackerman said she thinks the event is a good idea because any student having problems or feeling excluded can talk in an open safe space Tuesday. This will allow everyone to work on preventing them. “Events like these are important because they raise awareness and understanding of the diversity issues here on campus,” Ackerman said. Bueno said she hopes students from all ethnicities come, join and just listen to their peers. “I think if people are open it could really change their perspective about other people,” Bueno said. She added that she really wants to create a safe space where people can express themselves. “We’re going to have an open dynamic discussion and I’m hoping we have some people there, but overall I want them to feel secure and that they aren’t be judged by anyone,” she said. Bueno said the event is a step in the right direction and she hopes this can be a biannual tradition for years to come. — Follow Chastity Laskey @chastity_laskey

What do you think about Harriet Tubman on the $20?

Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew announced Wednesday that Harriet Tubman will become the new face on the U.S. $20 bill. Well-known abolitionist, former slave and conductor of the Underground Railroad Tubman will replace former President Andrew Jackson on the front of the bill. Jackson will appear on the back side with a picture of the White House.

YEAH
They even caught me on camera. ... It wasn’t me! University of Arizona Police Department officers were dispatched to Highland Market on April 10 to speak with a non-UA affiliated woman who was reporting a theft. The woman was in town visiting a friend and had been at Highland Market the night before. She realized in the morning she forgot her purse. She went to Highland Market and the manager returned her forgotten purse. The woman checked her purse and noticed her cash was missing. Surveillance footage showed a man going through the purse and taking cash. Officers were able to identify the man by a receipt he received at the market. When the officers spoke to the man, he said he had been to Highland Market but didn’t have any knowledge about the money. When he was told that there was video footage of him removing money, he admitted to the theft. The man said he took $150 from the wallet, handed over the cash and said he hadn’t spent any of it. He said he took the money because he was drinking and made a bad decision. The woman received her money and did not press charges.

This is all normal, I swear University of Arizona Police Department officers responded to a call placed by a neighbor regarding a vandalism in progress at a fraternity house on April 9. When the officers arrived, they spoke to a man at the front door who had cuts on his knuckles, and abrasions on his forearm and both his knees. He said “Everything is fine.” Officers heard a loud disturbance coming from inside the house when he spoke. The officers asked to go inside, but the man refused to let them. The officers entered because they saw broken windows, a baseball bat located beneath a broken window, people shouting and the injuries on the man. Upon entering the building, the officers spoke to another man who said he was unaware of any disturbance. Officers walked outside to the broken window and saw a baseball bat, glass and alcohol bottles around the window. The second male told the officers, “This is the party room. It’s nothing new. It’s kind of expected when you live in that room.” The officers looked around the second floor of the house and the second man saw no other damage. The officers requested to see the room with the broken window, but the man refused. Another officer spoke to other men who were in the room and they said there were some rowdy seniors. The officers left because no one requested medical attention. The second man said they would handle the broken window internally.

out of the student. Looking around the Los Angeles Times office, Gerber said many Wildcat basketball posters can be found in the cubicles of former UA students. She said with all the fellow Wildcats, it’s like having a mini Tucson in Los Angeles. Ceasar said it’s a comforting experience to work with people who have shared similar experiences outside of the office. Mejia said Ceasar reached out to her to offer advice when she first came to the Los Angeles Times. She also said Gerber became her Times mentor and that it was nice to see the familiar face of someone with whom she’d worked before when Bui joined the office. “The people that I work with here that are from the [UA] are really incredible reporters and writers,” Mejia said. “I’ve learned a lot through them and [found] a support system.” Bui, who worked alongside Mejia at the Daily Wildcat, said she sometimes feels like she’s back in the old newsroom.
The experience Each of the graduates attributed part of their successes to the skills, knowledge and experience they gained during their college years. Mejia and Bui both worked at the Wildcat as reporters, editors and eventual editors-in-chief. “My experience at the Wildcat prepared me and taught me everything I know,” Bui said. Mejia said she wasn’t sure she would be good at reporting when she first came to the UA School of Journalism, but she landed an internship through the guidance and support from her professors, which then brought her to the Wildcat newsroom. All four had different internships and opportunities under their belts, which gave them valuable experience in a professional newsroom. Don Hecker, former director of the New York Times Student Journalism Institute, said he remembers working with both Ceasar and Gerber, who were both chosen during their college years as one of the 12 best and brightest student journalists across the country. He said they are great reporters who come from a great journalism program, and that he was not surprised they earned recognition for their hard work and talent. “That program is really, really good. It’s a very broad program that has been a well-funded program,” Hecker
said. “That program puts its money back into it’s students.” Hecker also said there are many other UA journalism graduates who are doing great because the program is, in his opinion, on the level of some graduate journalism programs that always produce qualified journalists. To the up-and-coming journalist Gerber said she thinks it’s important to find the thing that really interests students, rather than looking at what someone else is interested in. Bui and Mejia both recommend getting involved with your student paper, as well as finding opportunities, internships and mentors to gain experience. “Really keep an eye out for any opportunity that you have and always work at getting better,” Mejia said. David Cuillier, director of the UA School of Journalism, said it’s amazing to see such recent graduates who have been a part of a Pulitzer Prize-winning team. “This tells our current students that there’s a future for them,” Cuillier said. “You hear people say journalism is dead. It is not dead. There is amazing work going on and [UA] graduates are a big part of that.”

Dance grad student portrays emotions accompanying death
ARTS & LIFE
BY VICTORIA PERERIA The Daily Wildcat
April 25-26, 2016 • Page 7
Emotions can often be difficult to put into words. How does one describe the love they have for a close relative or the struggle of coping with the loss of a loved one? There are some situations that illicit such raw, indescribable feelings that one cannot express through conventional conversation. Danielle Sheather uses dance to express these feelings. Sheather is one of the four master’s dance candidates who will perform her thesis at the “Unthreaded & Raveled” showcase on May 7-8. Sheather’s piece explores the complicated process of losing a loved one and the grief that follows. She used the death of her fiancé’s father to create a relatable story for her audience. She explained that her piece, titled “Gary” after her fiancé’s father, was motivated by the idea that life is short and should be filled with things one loves and have a positive influence on humanity. Sheather said she was struck with inspiration while touring Turkey several years ago. She was wandering around a bazaar and came across a lamp that she adored. She wasn’t sure if she should purchase it because it could break on the plane trip back to the U.S. but while she was pondering this, the shopkeeper shared some wisdom with her. “He said, ‘Coffins don’t have pockets,’” Sheather said. This simple comment intrigued Sheather and got her thinking about how she wanted to spend her life enjoying the things she loved, which began her fascination with the transition from life to death. It also persuaded her to buy the lamp, which came back from its plane trip unscathed and still functions today. “Gary” is also largely inspired by Gary’s memoir, which the family found after he died. Sheather tried to use his writing style and rhythm to translate similar messages into her piece’s movement and dance. She chose to separate the piece into six sections to highlight some of the different parts in the process of loss, grieving and acceptance. Sheather also turned to her dancers to explore the idea of what death and loss is like for people from all walks of life. She would ask her cast of 26 dancers to write about their experiences with death and what their feelings were on the subject. Similar to her work with the memoir, Sheather would then use her dancers’ answers and try to illustrate the ideas they put forth. Sheather endeavored to create a piece with which people of all kinds can relate. “If we’re just creating dance for dancers, I think we’re missing the point,” Sheather said. While crafting her thesis, Sheather also collaborated with Ruben Ramirez, visual artist and sophomore studying marketing and 3-D extended media. She first asked Ramirez for assistance with the lighting and set up of her performance. “Before the show, we’re displaying [Ramirez’s] artwork in the lobby,” Sheather said. “It’s just been such an amazing collaboration to be able to work with someone who sees color from a visual artist’s perspective.” In a couple weeks, Sheather will present her final thesis to audiences who will be able to connect with some element of her portrayal of death and dying. Whether it be through loss, grief or acceptance, audience members will discover a universality that shows how fundamental death is to all of our lives.

Top looks of Coachella BY MARIEL BUSTAMANTE The Daily Wildcat
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is an event seemingly full of celebrities, perfect outfits and makeup, and lots of music. But what you see isn’t what you’d expect. The Daily Wildcat checked out weekend two of this music festival and it was an interesting, amazing experience. Although we see hundreds of amazing Coachella outfits on fashion blogs and websites, it is hard to keep yourself together during the three days.
Jenny Mada, Phoenix
Janexia Lopez, San Diego
Emily Outlaw, Australia
Jenny Mada from Paradise Valley Community College in Phoenix took a break from soccer to spend a weekend in Indio, California. She sported an H&M Loves Coachella crop top—a new collaboration between the two major names. She paired it with shorts, ultra-cute gladiator sandals and a kimono. Her black hat is essential this festival season, as are her circle rimmed sunglasses and cute chokers.
This is the ultimate casual Coachella outfit. Coachella is the time to show off your creative outfits, but with the dust and heat, sometimes festivalgoers need to bring it down a notch while still looking cute. Janexia Lopez, a student at a San Diego community college, wore a yellow, off-the-shoulder crop top with high-wasted shorts and black sandals. This seemed to be a basic outfit, but it’s cute and comfy. Ultimately that is everything you need for Coachella success.
Flower crowns, chokers and high-waisted shorts seem to be the way to go at Coachella. But Emily Outlaw from Australia seemed to think otherwise and it was fantastic. She rocked a beautiful, faux-fur, lilac skirt with tan booties and a white crop top. She accessorized her look with turquoise jewelry—an unexpected color choice with the lilac skirt that worked.

Getting over it: Five things to do instead of texing Mr. MIA BY SAMMY CHERUKURI & HANNAH DJAVADI The Daily Wildcat
So, you’ve been on a couple of bloodpumping, heartfelt, romantic dates with a charmingly captivating guy. After a few good weeks, everything seems to exert a happy, luminous glow. You hear from him every day and you can’t help but swoon at those oh-so-cheesy kissy face emojis. Then, out of nowhere, comes the dead period. Slowly but surely, the emojis stop coming, as do the texts. Eventually, you stop hearing from your man altogether. Now you—confused and some what hurt—focus on the bad side of this sudden behavior. You start to think, “What did I do to ruin it?” and “What do I do now?” People tend to invest a lot in the first stages of dating and when this dreaded dead period comes, the fear of rejection kicks in. Then comes the awful move that you may mistakenly make: the text. “Hey, haven’t heard from you in a while, wondering where you’ve been.”
You still don’t hear from him after this, so you decide to take your energy and text him a couple more times. Here’s some advice: Leave it and focus that wasted energy on some fun, yet simple, things in this life, such as flirting, shopping, working out etc. Create a Tinder and obtain some egoboosting matches. Tinder has received a high popularity rate among today’s youth. While the app showcases a dating feel, most people concur that Tinder is used as more of a hookup venue. You may not want that scene, but you can use it for a major ego boost. Nothing gets that repressed confidence going than getting some cute matches and flirty messages. Local Tucsonan and UA alumnus Siddartha Sundaranand expressed this ideology fully. “I don’t necessarily go on Tinder with the intention of hooking up with any of these people,” Sundaranand said. “It’s just nice to match with attractive people who also find you hot. I go on there whenever I’m feeling out of it. Call it pretentious, but I call it fun.”

that are still satisfying and embarrassing, but it is definitely well worth it. Creating space from your phone allows you to live in the moment fully and it takes away the temptation of constantly checking to see if he finally texted you back.

G-Eazy brought the heat to a less than full TCC this weekend
BY Gretchyn Kaylor The Daily Wildcat
Gerald Earl Gillum acquired his self-claimed nom de plume at a young age. G-Eazy was originally G-E. He’s been known to say he finds it kind of silly, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. G-Eazy, Young Gerald – that’s his essence. The same essence he brought in force to the Tucson Convention Center Saturday night. G-Eazy is a self-proclaimed outsider and strange guy in general. He was working on his dream long before he went to New Orleans to study music, and—in a way—he and everyone around him always knew he’d get to where he is now. The night began with stacked openers, including DJ Daghe, G-Eazy’s best friend and fellow rapper Marty Grimes, and Nef the Pharoah. He gave a birthday shoutout to his brother and the show was much more Gerald-centric than past shows. His drummer and disc jockey were up on platforms and out of the light that he kept for himself all night. The first time I saw G-Eazy at the Pima County Fair last year, he was dancing awkwardly and still figuring out how to work the stage. At that show, he said we were his biggest audience yet. His DJ was doing most of the crowd working as G-Eazy took everything in. At that point in his career, “G” stood for giddy. I saw him again at Summer Ends Music Festival in Tempe. The best word to describe that experience would be overwhelming. He watched with an expression I’ll never forget, stunned as fights were broken up and overheated girls were pulled over barricades. Last night, the TCC arena didn’t even sell out. G-Eazy, his drummer Blizzy and his DJ had just come off their second weekend at Coachella. This stop in Tucson was not originally on the When It’s Dark Out tour. When It’s Dark Out is G-Eazy’s sophomore album, but those considered original fans know it goes back three more tapes with G-Eazy. His first album, These Things Happen, comes across as less genuine than everything else he’s done since. The show opened with the intro and first song, “Random,” from the album. Four more songs from When It’s Dark Out followed. Then G-Eazy brought it back to These Things Happen with one of its singles, “Far Alone.” G-Eazy took a break, which allowed his DJ to play a wide range of songs, from “Fried Rice” and “Endless Summer” to “Monica Lewinsky” and “F— With You.” G-Eazy finished off his set after this medley with more from the new album, some unassociated singles like his verse in the “I Like Tuh” remix and “I Might.” The most powerful part of the show, definitely not by accident, was “Me, Myself & I,” toward the end. His encore was “You Got Me,” followed by the older hit “I Mean It.” G-Eazy never forgets to let his crowd know he means it when he says how thankful he is for their help and support. Now, he’s drifting on to perform in Louisiana, the state where he studied music, before heading overseas in May. As usual, G-Eazy gave an “A+” performance in one of the more tame environments this past crazy year.

Health in mind, body positivity has limits BY GREG CASTRO
OPINIONS
The Daily Wildcat
N
o individual should have to do anything with their body that they don’t want to, but body positivity movements should encourage healthy lifestyles. Though many proponents of body positivity would prefer to keep the focus of the movement on simple self-acceptance and healthy attitudes, realistically, they are unable to divorce the discussion of body image from body health. More than one-third of all American adults are obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. While that statistic often inspires light-hearted “That’s America” commentary, it’s actually a serious topic. Obesity is a leading cause of heart disease and diabetes, which are among the most significant causes of preventable death in the United States. Just as our society encourages wearing seat belts, putting on condoms, and not smoking, it’s not unreasonable to also encourage maintaining a weight within your recommended body mass index range. This isn’t a slight against fat people, it’s common sense. Popular body positivity bloggers wouldn’t necessarily agree. The website Fat Girl Flow features one blog entry titled “Glorifying Obesity,” which contains ideas that seem to cross back and forth between acceptable and unhealthy. “I want to be very clear here: I am glorifying obesity,” according to the website. “I am also 100 percent saying that health is subjective and that I am under no obligation to strive for what others consider ‘health’ if I do not want to. Nobody is.” The second half of that comment isn’t necessarily ridiculous, but the first half is. There are few things more objective than health. If the author is trying to suggest that mental and emotional health are more important than physical health, then they are choosing to ignore how joint pain, greatly reduced stamina and difficulty navigating public spaces affect our moods and lifestyles. Other body positivity champions, such as Virgie Tovar, are similarly mixed in their messages. Tovar is a positive, professional role model. As a large woman of color, her brand of online feminism is refreshing in the face of the more common white, privileged alternative.

responsible message than Fat Girl Flow’s glorification of obesity or Tovar’s call to not lose weight and reject healthy diets. Students at the UA’s Body Smart Initiative concur. Katie Huerta, a junior studying family studies and human development and a marketing intern for the group, wrote about the importance of maintaining a balance between promoting healthy self image and a healthy lifestyle within the body positivity movement. “I also think that if you’re comfortable with your size, then that’s what’s important, but it’s also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle,” Huerta wrote. “The body positivity movement has an obligation to promote healthy lifestyles because that is the essence of being body positive.” Like any social movement, body positivity features many shades of gray. The movement at its best reminds society that size, beauty, shape and fitness are not so cut-anddry. At its worst, the movement gives praise to obesity. Instead of featuring sick bodies and calling them beautiful, videos such as Lees’ should showcase bodies that are not traditionally beautiful, but healthy and powerful none the less. Seeing these images across different media platforms would go a long way toward helping average Americans feel better about how they look and, ultimately, who they are. — Follow Greg Castro @gacastrotweets

Internships help add to unrealistic expectations of college students BY SABRINA ETCHEVERRY The Daily Wildcat
L
evels of expectations for college students have skyrocketed in the past decade. There was less pressure on parents and older siblings who attended college to be exceptional in every aspect of their college careers. As college acceptances became more competitive, so did the students. Society consequently has a standard to be met by any and all undergraduates. This standard dictates that, to receive a favorable entry-level position postgraduation, a student must be involved in extracurricular activities, have leadership experience, spend time volunteering, have an exceptional GPA and, even worse, have work or internship experience. Students must spend their weekdays studying and weekends volunteering and participating in extracurricular activities to meet these standards. With their semesters completely booked, the only logical time for students to gain precious work or internship experience is over the summer. The societal standard has been set that undergraduates either work or study during their summer breaks. More often than not, students seek internships or jobs and, hopefully, find ones related to their future career plans. The daunting task is to then find an opportunity that is both career-furthering and enjoyable. This makes many students’ breaks seem like even more of a chore than a school year spent slaving away over books. One must ask how a student studying and being involved all week and volunteering on weekends has a chance to even look for these opportunities. Unfortunately, there isn’t just one or even a few locations that could contain the right internship. Students could find internships online, by word of mouth or through email. Even if a student has ample time to be looking for these internships, they are extremely difficult to find and, once found, often hard to be accepted into. Many, if not all, of the internships students can find that are enjoyable and competitive are unpaid. Students must work 20-40 hours during weeks over summer without being compensated to build a resume or become
a competitive candidate for that first job. The expectation of undergraduates to lead near-perfect lives to even enter into and be a functioning member of society could lead to crippling levels of stress. Today’s undergraduates face some of the highest levels of stress seen by modern society. “The percentage of students who said their emotional health was above average fell to 52 percent,” according to The American Freshman: National Norms Fall 2010 survey. “It was 64 percent in 1985.” Additionally, the New York Times wrote, “While first-year students’ assessments of their emotional health were declining, their ratings of their own drive to achieve, and academic ability, have been going up, and reached a record high in 2010, with about three-quarters saying they were above average.” Students are having to push themselves harder and harder every year, to their own emotional detriment. This isn’t an isolated feeling. “A survey of college counseling centers has found that more than half their clients have severe psychological problems, an increase of 13 percent in just two years,” the New York Times wrote. “Anxiety and depression, in that order, are now the most common mental health diagnoses among college students, according to the Center for Collegiate Mental Health at Penn State.” The often-discussed emotional distress of simply being competitive in classes doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of the stress caused by the set of expectations placed on undergraduates. Yet with a work force expecting so much from recent college graduates, there isn’t exactly a way to avoid these pressures. With so many other competitive applicants out there, the only way to stay above the curve is to have the experience. It just seems near impossible to float above the water with so much weight pushing you down. Students are scrambling to find those perfect internships or jobs as summer fast approaches, while still studying for finals, leading clubs and trying to find the time to sleep and eat. The pressure an undergraduate experiences on a daily basis is ridiculous, but hopefully we can forge on together as students and try to find a path through the never-ending mountain of stress that is central to all of our lives. — Follow Sabrina Etcheverry @sabrina_etch

HI CORBETT field is located at 700 S. Randolph Way in Tucson. The Wildcats’ home field has been very advantageous in games this season.
UA baseball’s daunting walls help ‘Cats BY BRANDON JAMES
The Daily Wildcat
When it comes to college baseball stadiums, and even major league ballparks, few come close to the deep dimensions of Hi Corbett Field, which is in its fifth season serving as the home of UA baseball. The stadium’s history dates all the way back to its construction in 1927 and opening in 1928. It was originally named Randolph Municipal Baseball Park and served as the home of the minor league Class D Tucson Waddies. Hi Corbett Field became host to Cactus League spring training games in 1945 when state Sen. Hiram Stevens Corbett convinced Cleveland Indians owner Bill Veeck—who had a ranch in Tucson—to bring his team. The stadium was renamed Hi Corbett Field in 1951 in honor of Sen. Corbett. The Cleveland Indians stayed at Hi Corbett Field until 1992 and a new expansion team, the Colorado Rockies, took its place in 1993. The Rockies left Hi Corbett Field after demanding more renovations following 2010 spring training, which opened the door to the Wildcats. Arizona agreed to leave Jerry Kindall Field Frank Sancet Stadium in 2011 and made Hi Corbett Field their permanent home facility. It is a challenging place offensively, but it works to a pitcher’s advantage with dimensions of 349 feet down the right field line, 405 feet to left center, 392 feet to center, 410 feet to left center and 366 feet down the left field line. “When you play in a park like this, it’s deep all over the place pole-to-pole, so the mentality is hard and low, basically,” said first baseman Ryan Aguilar. “Sometimes, you get
into one just by thinking hard ground ball or line drive.” Aguilar said that when players think they have a homerun at Hi Corbett Field, it usually ends up being an out, and they have to get into it for a ball to get out. Arizona coach Jay Johnson said a player can never be reliant on the homerun when playing in a park like the Wildcats’, and teams must be able to score in a number of different ways. “We really try to be proficient in the bunting game,” Johnson said. “I think eliminating free bases is always important. … It’s even more important because you really have to earn your runs here, especially at night. From an offensive philosophy standpoint, hitting the ball on a line, or line drive down as we call it, is really important. You want to minimize the fly ball outs that you hit.” The field’s dimensions are advantageous to pitchers, especially pitchers who can draw a lot of fly balls. “From a pitching standpoint, I think it’s good having good curve ball guys,” Johnson said. “Good curve ball guys usually get fly balls and so that’s going to be a point of emphasis in recruiting.” Johnson will be looking to recruit guys like right-handed pitcher Nate Bannister. He is 5-0 at home this season with a 0.86 ERA . “I just like to get ground balls, so if I fall behind a hitter or two, I try to make sure I get a strike,” Bannister said. “And if it’s up, then I know my outfielders will run it down with the big gaps.” Bannister’s complete game was an example of Hi Corbett Field working to the Wildcat’s advantage, but the stadium’s dimensions worked against them a couple of days later. Arizona was on the brink of sweeping the
Cardinal last weekend, taking a 5-4 lead into the ninth inning, when Quinn Brodey came up and hit a two-run inside the park homerun to spoil the Wildcats’ chances at a sweep. “It’s a big park and you can’t cover all of it,” Johnson said. “This park has been really good to us advantageously and it beat us right there.” Few stadiums in the Pac-12 Conference come close to the dimensions of the Wildcats’ home, but some Pac-12 stadiums are by no means strangers to deep walls. Smith’s Ballpark, home of the Utah Utes, is 345 feet down the left field line and only 315 feet down the right field line, but dead center outdoes Hi Corbett Field’s 392 feet at 420 feet. Phoenix Municipal Stadium, home of the ASU Sun Devils, is 345 feet down both the right and left field lines and is 410 feet to center field. Though it can be a challenging place to play, Arizona has had its share of success at Hi Corbett Field, winning its fourth national championship under former head coach Andy Lopez in its inaugural season at the park. The Wildcats have a 25-14 overall record this season and a dominating 17-5 home record. Johnson said he is satisfied with the way his team has played at Hi Corbett Field. “I want to build an offense that’s capable of winning any kind of game in any kind of park and is adaptable to whatever situation that is,” Johnson said. “I think we have mature guys that understand the game and understand what they need to do to be successful in a ballpark like this and offensively, we’ve done a pretty good job of that so far.” — Follow Brandon James @@brandojames57

UA baseball sweeps Cal, stays in Pac-12 title hunt BY ryan kelapire The Daily Wildcat
E
xpectations were minimal for the Arizona baseball team heading into the season. The team was projected to finish No. 9 in the Pac-12 Conference by the media and, in fairness to those involved in the voting process, it wasn’t necessarily an outlandish projection. Arizona, as head coach Jay Johnson admitted before the season started, had few proven pitchers on its roster and lost key contributors from its lineup, which was not exactly a recipe for success. The Wildcats looked like the team the media thought they were at the beginning of their conference schedule. They started 3-6 in conference play after being swept by Utah, despite Arizona leading in all three games until the late-innings. Arizona was essentially right where it was supposed to be in the standings: the lower third. The Wildcats weren’t a bad team. They were competitive in every game, but they simply had trouble winning the close ones. Fast forward three weeks from that Utah series and that has certainly changed. The Wildcats have since won three series in a row, including a home series against the potent Stanford Cardinal and a road sweep of the California Golden Bears, a team that was sitting atop the conference standings. Arizona’s recent excellence led it to improve to a 10-8 conference record, becoming the first team in the Pac-12 to boast double figures in the conference win column. The Wildcats vaulted over the low bar that was set for them and then some. They will finish in the top third of the conference and will likely have postseason baseball headed their way if the Wildcats maintain the pace. Arizona was picked to be a No. 3 seed in the Lafayette Regional as one of the last four teams in the field of 64, according to Baseball America’s latest NCAA Tournament projections. That projection, however, was made Wednesday—days before the Wildcats swept Cal—meaning that Arizona’s current postseason outlook is now more favorable than

it was a few days ago. It’s now an outlook that has shifted from the Wildcats being a bubble team to one firmly in the field. But that outlook isn’t cemented. The Wildcats still have 13 more Pac-12 games left to play and wins are difficult to come by in this conference. A three-game winning streak can turn into a three-game losing streak in a hurry. Therefore, Arizona’s recent tear doesn’t mean it can take its foot off the pedal, knowing that a postseason birth has been locked up. What Wildcat fans do know is that Arizona pays no attention to the expectations that are placed it. This won’t be the No. 9 place team it was picked to be. — Follow Ryan Kelapire @RKelapireUA

I’m not much of a swimmer. ... I had great support from my teammates and I took home the national championship.” Clevenger first got into the sport as a freshman at the UA. That’s when TriCats first caught her eye. “It looked like a challenge and I like doing things that other people don’t do,” Clevenger said. “That was part of the reason why I joined and I fell in love with the team. It’s hard not to fall in love with a sport when you have a team like mine.” The rest of the team couldn’t be more proud of her. “It’s just really incredible in looking at how hard the team works together and how hard we all push each other,” said TriCats vice president David Kroeppler. “We had somebody else place fourth, so it really just proves how much working together and pushing each other can pay off.” TriCats is one of the largest clubs at the UA with 70 members in total. “We just make it as fun as we can, which is what our goal is,” Kroeppler said. “[Clevenger] hadn’t even done triathlons until her freshman year, so we just try to get fun people who are interested in trying new things, working hard and watching it all pay off. We are just looking for new people who are fun and ready for work.” The sport, however, is grueling and takes its toll on each competitor. For Clevenger, it hit her during her freshman and sophomore years when she was working 20 hours and training 20 hours per week, while simultaneously trying to earn her degree in chemical engineering. “I’ve been really fortunate and I haven’t had a lot of injuries,” Clevenger said. “I had a crash my sophomore year which was pretty bad. Fortunately, I look at those type of things as something I can learn from, so it didn’t scare me away from the sport.” She learned to rely on her teammates and coaches at the same time to learn and grow both on and off the course. “No one has quite the dynamic that we have because we do so well in bringing in new members who are genuinely new to the sport, myself included,” Clevenger said. “Most of us hadn’t done a triathlon until we got to college. We build people up from scratch, which makes a huge difference when it comes to team attitude and dynamic.” After placing seventh in the USA Triathlon Collegiate Club National Championships last year, Clevenger and teammate Laura Haley both aspired to place in the top five. At the end of the day, both smiled as they accomplished just that. “It’s unreal, to be honest. My freshman year, I looked up at the podium and I dreamed about being up [there],” Clevenger said. “You are never going to be able to do those things unless you believe in yourself. ... It started out as a dream, and I couldn’t do it without my coaches and teammates.”

Incoming forward Markkanen shouldn’t be overlooked in deep recruiting class BY IVAN LEONARD The Daily Wildcat

answers to your ques�ons about sex and rela�onships The average ejaculate contains approximately 200 million sperm. However, it only takes one sperm cell to fertilize an egg.
Can you get pregnant from pre-cum? Yes, you can get pregnant from pre-cum, also known as preejaculation. Anytime a male is aroused there is the opportunity for fluid to appear from the tip of the penis. This fluid can contain sperm. While pre-ejactulatory fluid may not have as high of a concentration of sperm as semen does, do not count it out! All you need is one sperm to win the race in order to get pregnant. What’s the big concern over preejaculation and semen? Couples may prefer a method where the male penetrates the woman but pulls out before ejaculating inside her. This method is also known as withdrawal. Withdrawal is 81% effective at preventing pregnancy IF performed correctly. Although this method is better than nothing, there are more effective options out there for you. Using a condom is not only more effective at preventing pregnancy, but it helps keep you safe from sexually transmitted infections (STI’s). Plus, condom use prevents pre-ejaculation and semen from letting any sperm loose to win the race up the fallopian tubes.
Condoms are great but it doesn’t hurt to look at other types of birth control. Hormonal birth control methods have some of the highest rates of effectiveness. There are many different types of birth control options available like the intrauterine device (IUD), the pill, and Nexplanon (the implant). Hormonal birth control can be 91%- 99.9% effective, depending on what method you use. Females, ask your medical provider what’s right for you – there are many options out there. Remember that hormonal birth control methods do not protect against STI’s. Condom use will reduce the chance of both pregnancy and STI’s.
