here are college students everywhere who take 10-15 shots a day. A shot before every meal, a shot in the morning, a shot before bed and more throughout the day. These students need shots for their health, or they can’t handle their day-to-day activity. This is not because they are partying too hard, but because they live with a disease: Type 1 diabetes. Kelsie Owen, a public health junior, has been a Type 1 diabetic for 18 years. She started out the oldfashioned way with syringes but eventually moved on to an insulin pump when she was 7. Her mother, Leslie Owen, felt that it was better to switch to the pump. She said she believed it would help manage her diabetes better, and she would be “poked with a syringe less.” “She was so skinny and had really sensitive skin,” Leslie Owen said, “and she was just getting black and blue and just had sores from where we would do her pokes and give [Kelsie Owen] her insulin shots.”

Since Kelsie Owen was diagnosed young, her mother administered her insulin shots. “When you think about going into a hospital, your mind tells you that you’ll leave the hospital better, like you [will be] cured or healed, but it was just the beginning,” said Leslie Owen, recalling the day her daughter was diagnosed. “This was the whole start of a lifetime of issues with having to give shots and pokes for her. So, giving her shots was just kind of a whole awareness thing, just to have to do that to your child.”
Diabetes management
Though there is no cure for diabetes, it is a manageable disease. Diabetics must count carbs, monitor blood sugar levels and give insulin accordingly. DiabeticLink is a website that accommodates Type 1, Type 2 or a prediabetic patients with tools that can help them self-manage their disease. It was started by Hsinchun Chen, director of the Artificial Intelligence Lab at the UA, and Dr. Thomas R. Brown, a physician at

Plato’s Closet will host a booth on the UA Mall for another day of its Bag Some Cash event. “We hope to see more faces and buy more bags; we got the cash, so come on down,” said Lindsay Sushil, store manager of Plato’s Closet on Oracle Road. The event will continue today and Thursday on the UA Mall from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Students can donate a small grocery-sized bag of clothes for $10 or a large bag for $20. Plato’s Closet, TMM Family Services, Inc., and the UA Office of Sustainability in conjunction with BolchalkFReY Marketing, Advertising & Public Relations kicked off the first day of the first
annual Bag Some Cash event Tuesday. Brooke Nowak, director of community relations and volunteer coordinator for TMM Family Services, Inc., said she thinks the event went extremely well so far, especially considering their fight with the wind, which prevented them from putting up any signs to highlight either Plato’s Closet or TMM. “I was impressed with the fact that every single person we talked to was very interested and said immediately that they would be back,” Nowak said. “Several even came back today.” Connie Knecht, owner of the independently owned and

Don’t stress, end of school year nears end BY louis vitiritti
The Daily Wildcat
Are you stressed out about finals? Today at 2 p.m., the department of chemistry and biochemistry is hosting a workshop in Old Chemistry Room 209, which will teach students how to manage stress effectively. “As advisors, we have seen some … negative stress-related outcomes during the end of the semester with a handful of our students,” said Jennifer Vander Hooven, advisor for the department of chemistry and biochemistry. “With upcoming finals, graduation, transitioning back home, broken relationships or even summer vacations, some students cannot handle the amount of pressure and stress during this time of year.” Although stress may be a significant aspect of college life, the goal of the workshop is to help students manage their stress and find a happy medium. “We wanted to bring someone in from Counseling and Psych Services in hopes of raising awareness,” Vander Hooven said, “not only about
what CAPS has to offer students, but also to break some barriers about the importance of seeing a professional if one’s own stress gets out of hand.” According to Vander Hooven, Jennifer Wilson, MA, LPC, will share tips and provide handouts. The workshop may prove to be beneficial for students as the last day of class nears, as well as final exams. “Our goal is for students to leave the workshop with some effective tools to better handle what may be going on in their stress-related world,” Vander Hooven said. “We also hope that they will begin to understand and recognize when their stress starts to get out of control and how to seek support.” The workshop will also include a raffle drawing, chocolate milk and cookies. So, if you’re feeling stressed out, stop by Room 209 at 2 p.m. for the department’s final Winning Wednesday Workshop of the semester.

Knecht said she is happy the organization is at the UA so they can give students an opportunity to donate clothes without having to drive, especially considering not all students have cars. “I’m happy with the amount of bags we’ve gotten so far,” said Knecht, who added they expect to see more students in the next two days. Sushil said this event really is about recycling and giving back to a great charity, which will benefit the Tucson community. “It’s convenient we’re right on campus,” Sushil said, “and it’s an extra way to earn more cash, which I think all college students need.” Since they aren’t sifting through the bags on the Mall, Plato’s Closet will bring its

motive behind writing his novel and touring American colleges stemmed from Israel losing its narrative. “While they have lost political wisdom, they still hold onto the wisdom of it,” Shavit said.

University Medical Center who was the medical advisor for the project. The main goal of the website is to promote patient intelligence, Chen said, so patients can report their status and change their behavior. To help with that, the site has features such as tracking logs, diabetic friendly recipes, restaurant information, social media forums and a risk protection engine. “[The risk protection engine] allows patients to enter their parameters and try to understand their degree of risk of readmissions or other side effects in diabetes,” Chen said. The risk protection engine uses over 2,000 patient records to help identify the risk of hospitalization for the patient at hand. The project was funded by the National Science Foundation and has been active since September 2014. It is free for all users and currently has about 6,000 members. There is also a version in Taiwan, though the U.S. version is more comprehensive, according to Chen. Lubaina Maimoon, a business graduate student and research assistant at the Artificial Intelligence Lab, said there are many logs for tracking at the same time, including food intake and glucose levels. “You’re able to see what kind of food would be affecting your glucose levels and at what times,” Maimoon said. There are also logs for insulin intake, physical activity, HbA1c, blood pressure, cholesterol and weight. Though the site is catered to diabetics, it is possible for anyone to use the logs. Grace Samtani, a sophomore studying neuroscience and Spanish, research assistant and Type 1 diabetic, said that before they launched the site, many user studies showed that people without diabetes were logging on. “The family members would go on the website and be like, ‘You know what, I can use this too, because I’m equally affected, and I want to go and help manage my daughter’s condition, my son’s condition, my husband’s or wife’s condition,’” Samtani said. “So, it’s a website that everybody can basically use, because you can track your exercise, you can go to the risk management, and you can predict your risk of stroke or cardiac disease in the next five

Though there are ways to make management easier, doctors and researchers are still finding ways for a Type 1 diabetic to feel less like a pincushion. Dr. Karen Herbst, an associate professor and endocrinology fellowship director at the UA, said that with a continuous glucose monitor, a Type 1 diabetic only has to check their blood sugar once a day. “You need to calibrate the meter every day,” Herbst said, “but once it’s calibrated, you don’t need to keep pricking your finger, so it’s once a day.” Herbst also added that patients have the option of getting a pancreas and kidney transplant that would get rid of their diabetes entirely, though it is not common.
Herbst said. “I think teenagers “We actually just had a guy get burnt out because they have who moved here from Illinois and to work hard and do something saw a doctor and immediately at the same time got referred while no one to Mayo else is doing [Clinic],” anything.” Herbst said.

Sheriff Joe has finally gone too far BY ASHLEIGH HOROWITZ The Daily Wildcat
F
erguson, Mo., brought national attention to the issue of racial bias in policing. That attention may finally be turning onto Maricopa County’s Sheriff Joe Arpaio. For over 20 years, Arpaio has been in power through six elections because of Arizona voters. He’s fooled voters into seeing a strong man of the law when he is nothing more than a racist child in an old man’s body. Investigation into Arpaio’s policing methods opened in March 2009 when the U.S. Justice Department investigated Maricopa County, according to CNN. The federal investigation revealed that the Sheriff’s Office was taking part in unlawful policing and jailing practices against Latino drivers. For 18 months, Arpaio refused to hand over necessary evidence, which eventually resulted in the federal government suing the county. This unnecessary action only delayed the inevitable outcome that Arpaio, for some reason, believed he could avoid. In 2011, Judge G. Murray Snow ordered Arpaio to cease traffic stops and patrols that required drivers to present legalization papers. In May 2013, Snow declared Maricopa County’s police methods racial and ethnic profiling, not legal immigration handling. During the April 21-24 hearing, Arpaio was heard in court for contempt in regards to Snow’s orders that Arpaio disregarded. When confronted under oath, Arpaio claimed he didn’t understand the law. Either Arpaio has been caught in his own web of lies or has just told us he needs to retire. Besides being unable to properly comprehend demands given to him, Arpaio was discovered investigating Snow’s wife. This is not the first time Arpaio has terrorized and threatened people to get his way. Arpaio has his own agenda, and every time voters put this abuser into power, his ego swells like a Chia Pet. According to AZCentral, back in 2004, Arpaio resurfaced a sheriff candidate’s 30-yearold rape allegation, in which his adoptive stepmother was declared guilty of raping him when he was 17. Arpaio used his power just to cast voter doubt. The stunt cost over $800,000. In 2007, Phoenix New Times founders Michael Lacey and Jim Larkin were arrested in the middle of the night after publishing a critical piece on Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas, a political ally of Arpaio. Charges were dropped shortly after the arrests but not before the grand jury requested IP addresses, cookies and browser history for all visitors to the publication’s website since 2004. The intimidation act cost $3.75 million. From 2008 to 2009, Arpaio launched a massive corruption investigation into former and present county employees. Although all charges were dropped in 2010, Arizonans lost $7.5 million on the crusade. There is nothing wrong with disagreeing with the federal government’s ideals and wanting to change them. However, ignoring the law isn’t the way to go about it. This goes for Arizona voters: Electing a man that disregards the laws he’s sworn to protect isn’t justice; it’s aggression. Protesting and lobbying are ways to tell the government that the people want change. Voters should focus on electing legislators and representatives to help change laws, not electing a sheriff who doesn’t seem to understand that his job is to enforce those laws.

It’s not the Democrats who tokenize women BY MADDY BYNES The Daily Wildcat
I
n the past eight years, we have seen an African-American president, and in the past two elections, we have seen women running to be the presidential nominees on major tickets. In 2008, the nation got its first female vice presidential candidate since Geraldine Ferraro in 1984. The Executive Vice President and CEO of the National Rifle Association, Wayne LaPeirre, does not see this as historic, saying, “eight years of one demographically symbolic president is enough.” Frankly, LaPeirre’s remark is nothing short of disgusting. Dismissing Obama’s presidency because of his skin color is wrong. Dismissing Hillary Clinton’s candidacy as a feminist attempt is equally as terrible. Like or dislike their politics, both worked hard to get to where they are today, and they inspire millions. Sexism is not new in today’s politics, and it did not start with Hillary Clinton in 2008. Shirley Chisholm ran for president in 1972 and won 152 votes at the Democratic National Convention. Ferraro was the vice presidential candidate with Walter Mondale in 1984. Both women faced tremendous obstacles and attempted to break down barriers for women today.
It’s not easy being a woman in politics. According to a survey conducted by the Center for Talent Innovation, women are typically judged harshly when it comes to their perceived leadership qualification, which is often based off their appearances. In Fortune 500 CEOs and higher political offices, women are severely underrepresented. Congress is only about 20 percent female. Though it is time for a female president, as Americans, that’s not what we should judge Hillary Clinton by as a qualified commander in chief. Frankly, she is the most qualified candidate running for president so far, and it’s exciting to see what she, as a person, will do. That being said, it is time for a woman president. Women’s suffrage is less than 100 years old, yet women like Madeleine Albright and Eleanor Roosevelt helped pioneer routes for women in higher offices. Since 1920, women have overcome obstacles in many parts of society. We’ve come a long way from the days of “The Feminine Mystique,” but we still have a long way to go. Women have yet to head the White House. Hillary Clinton’s resume is impressive, and it shows she has worked for all she has done. She went to Wellesley College and then to Yale Law School. She was one of the top lawyers in the country before Bill Clinton became president. As first lady, Hillary Clinton was instrumental in health care reform. In 2001, she was elected in her own right to the U.S. Senate. She was
the first female presidential candidate for a major party to be competitive in a national primary, and she was Secretary of State. Hillary Clinton is a woman, yes, but first and foremost, she is a political leader. Obama and Hillary Clinton are only tokens because we, as Americans, tokenize them. No president is, nor should be, a token. It’s time to look past gender and race. It was evident at the Correspondents’ Dinner when Cicely Strong asked every journalist to take an oath not to talk about Hillary Clinton’s appearance during the coverage of the 2016 election; America is tired of hearing about it. Somehow, for the NRA, it isn’t tokenism when Sen. Marco Rubio or Sen. Ted Cruz run for president. It isn’t about gender when Michele Bachmann announces a bid or Sarah Palin is a vice presidential candidate. However, when a highly competent and experienced individual runs for president, it’s the Democratic Party trying to create token presidents? It’s time to move past Hillary Clinton’s gender and see her for the competent leader she is. Obviously, if elected, she would be the first female president. The fact is, she is already a leader and a role model for women around the country. She has shattered many glass ceilings with grace and poise. This race is about the problems this country faces, and if LaPeirre can’t understand that, then he should not bother commenting on current political issues.
Obama and [Clinton] are only tokens because we, as Americans, tokenize them
Letter to the editor
T
he Arizona Daily Star and the Daily Wildcat recently ran a series of articles regarding alleged coercive practices of Tucson-based Faith Christian Church and its UA ministry activities. In reading the accounts of UA alumni, in the articles and via email, I am disturbed by the detailed reports and hope for healing and recovery for each individual. While the articles detailed investigations being conducted by the Dean of Students Office and the University Religious Council, it is important to clarify exactly what is being investigated and who is doing the
investigating. The Dean of Students Office is not investigating the church itself, as the university’s jurisdiction is limited to investigating alleged violations of its Student Club & Organization Handbook, which governs club recognition and usage of university resources, including facilities, equipment and services. Because the university, as a governmental entity, must always be mindful of neither promoting nor impeding religion, its “investigation” would be no different if the alleged violations were attributed to a sports club, an honorary or social greek letter organization.

concern is with conduct and adherence to university rules and regulations, not beliefs. Moreover, the University Religious Council is not administered or otherwise controlled by the UA. Instead, it is a self-governed group of clerical and other leaders of the various religious organizations that have a presence on or near campus. Because it has its own constitution and rules of governance, any “investigation” that it may be conducting is separate-and-apart from the university. Public universities like the UA are charged with being religiously neutral. The recent articles in the Daily Wildcat and Arizona Daily Star were informative, but must be read and understood in the context of both the UA’s
obligations and limitations. In the end, almost all of our students are adults who are free to make their own choices on religious affiliations. The articles did raise an important issue relevant to any organization, in that the purported “cult like” dynamics attributed to Faith Christian Church can occur in other organizations, just with their own particular spin. To that end, the Dean of Students Office is hosting a series of educational sessions with a nationally known expert regarding cult dynamics in an effort to increase the campus community’s awareness and knowledge. — Kendal Washington White, Dean of Students

A UAPD officer was driving down Campbell Avenue when he saw a vehicle speeding on Sixth Street through Campbell Avenue on April 15 at 10:05 p.m. The officer caught up to the speeding vehicle at Fremont Avenue and pulled it over at Tyndall Avenue. The officer estimated the individual was going 55 mph in a 30 mph zone. The officer asked the man why he thought he was pulled over. The driver replied, “Because I was being stupid,” and admitted to going 60 mph. He was cited and released for exceeding the speed limit by more than 20 mph. The officer told the man that if he enjoys driving fast, he should arrange time at a driving track.
Hole lotta trouble
A UAPD officer was called to La Aldea graduate housing complex to investigate criminal damage to a gate on April 14 at 8 a.m. The residence hall maintenance supervisor walked with the officer to Gate E on the northwest corner and pointed to a hole in the metal mesh. The officer saw a 2-by-3 hole near the door handle. It appeared as if someone used a tool to pull the metal apart away from the steel frame in order to trespass. The officer tried to put his hand in the hole and failed but observed that a small hand was capable of fitting in the hole. The gate, which was normally used for exiting only, would allow people to enter the hall when the handle was pressed down. The supervisor said the door would be fixed by either replacing the metal mesh or by welding a metal plate over the hole. A victim’s rights form was completed for UA Risk Management Services. There were no suspects or witnesses to the incident.
Alarming message
A UA student received an alarming text message from his friend claiming she wanted to do something bad to herself on April 14 at 2:05 p.m. The friend who sent the text message is also a UA student. She said she feels really bad and wants to go home. The student who received the message said he was aware she’s been seeing a counselor at UA Counseling and Psych Services for depression. He was concerned because his friend told him she had thoughts about cutting herself in the past. A University of Arizona Police Department officer met with the female friend who sent the concerning text at the Associated Students of the University of Arizona offices at 2:30 p.m. She said she met with a CAPS counselor since February 2015 for her diagnosis of general anxiety and depression. She told the officer that for the past couple of days, her depression has been getting worse, and she has had thoughts of cutting herself, but she hasn’t actually done anything. She reported texting her mother for support, which helps calm her down. The student agreed to have her counselor come over and evaluate her.

Free speech and civility affects us all BY TERRIE BRIANNA
The Daily Wildcat
Councilman Steve Kozachik of Ward 6 will moderate a panel discussion tonight regarding a few incidents in the fall that targeted religious groups on campus. The incidents were an assault between two UA fraternities and multiple incidents at the Islamic Center at 901 E. First St.. Kozachik said the purpose of “Free Speech and Civility: Striking the Balance” is to “keep the conversation going about where do you cross the line between exercising your constitutionally guaranteed rights of speech and expression,” as opposed to saying things “just because you can.” According to Kozachik, this community conversation is important, and there is no better place to hold this panel than on a university campus. The panelists will offer different perspectives and context to the conversation on free speech and civility. “[The panelists] come to this with a different viewpoint and different context, and that is what will make
it an interesting exchange,” Kozachik said. “In addition to that, the context of the audience is going to be important.” Among the panelists are Kathy Adams Riester, Ron Barber, Rabbi Sam Cohon, Kamel Didan and Toni Massaro. Kozachik encourages all of the UA and Tucson community to attend the event. “Anybody who represents a protected class [should attend the panel],” he said. “Whether it’s religious or ethnic or LGBT.” Additionally, Kozachik added that it is valuable to cross-pollinate experiences from one group to the next, because it builds bonds and breaks down barriers. “Free Speech and Civility: Striking the Balance” will be held in the Modern Languages building Room 350 from 6-7:30 p.m. “Anybody who feels as though they have experienced situations in which the group they represent has had to protect themselves from the standpoint of inappropriate comments,” Kozachik said. — Terrie Brianna @DailyWildcat
UA professor by day, drag queen by night BY ERIN SHANAHAN
Arizona Sonora News Service
“Boogie Wonderland” by Earth, Wind & Fire plays as a warm-up for the crowd. Young and old shimmy and shake down the aisles with wine, beer and nachos in hand. Then, a theme song announces the start of the show at Tucson’s Hotel Congress. Tempest DuJour has arrived. “Are you feeling sassy!?” Tempest DuJour, tops on the drag scene in Arizona and nationally, hosts Retro Game Show Night at the historic Hotel Congress in Tucson. Patrick Holt, 47, the man behind drag queen Tempest DuJour, is the tallest and oldest contestant to ever compete on the Logo TV reality show competition “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” He is also the only contestant to ever represent Arizona in seven seasons. “I love larger than life theatrics,” Holt said. “It’s about letting loose and having a communal good time with the audience.” Retro Game Show Night features a different audience participation game at each monthly showing with a new set and props. A neon sign twinkles center stage with the words “Retro Game Show Night” in bold colors. Games include Password (sassword), Wheel of Fortune (wheel of misfortune), and the Newlywed Game (not so newlywed). Contestants compete when they volunteer or have Tempest DuJour pull their names out of a fuzzy, pink box. Tied games are resolved by a dance off. The monthly event has been selling out every performance since it began three years ago, Holt said. Holt began his drag career in 2007 when he won the drag pageant Miss Gay Arizona. Raised Mormon, Holt attended Brigham Young University in Salt Lake City and ended up in Tucson through an opportunity to teach at the UA. His extended family has been supportive of his drag queen persona, Tempest DuJour, and her appearance on “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Holt said. Holt’s sister didn’t understand drag at first. According to Holt, “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” produced by the actor and world famous drag queen RuPaul, helped make drag

TEMPEST DUJOUR, host of Retro Game Show Night at Hotel Congress, is the tallest and oldest contestant to ever compete on the Logo TV reality show competition “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” Patrick Holt, who plays the character Tempest DuJour, is also a costume designer and a theatre arts professor at the UA.
become more mainstream. “RuPaul opened the door for greater respect and understanding of drag as an art,” he said. Priscilla Fernandez, an actor in Retro Game Show Night, added that RuPaul was a pioneer for abandoning gender stereotypes in the 1980s. Fernandez plays game show “celebrity guest” Elena Sanchez. Retro Game Show Night producer David Hoffman recruited her when he saw her YouTube videos. “Where else can you see a drag queen hosting a game show?” Fernandez said. “I had to be a part of it.” Fernandez’s character is a “tacky” and over-exaggerated Hispanic woman. Game show night is breaking down stereotypes, Fernandez said. “The show gives visibility to a subculture that most people don’t know about,” Fernandez said. “We celebrate stereotypes and laugh at ourselves.” Retro Game Show Night’s “silly” and “adult” humor is attracting people from Scottsdale, Phoenix and Casa Grande, Fernandez said. According to Holt, the audience is mostly straight, 18-80, married, single and “everyone in-between.” If audience members keep an open mind, they will enjoy
themselves, he said. The political climate in the state of Arizona does not impact the drag queen community, Holt said. The drag queens are focused on their commitment to the art. “I won’t let some old white guy in a suit in Phoenix determine my happiness,” Holt said. Holt is a costume designer and a theatre arts professor at the UA. “Discussions in class force me to keep learning,” Holt said. Holt takes up to two hours to prepare for a performance, applying theatrical grade makeup foundation in “brighter” and “garish” colors. The creative team behind Retro Game Show Night all have theatrical or choral experience, said Paul Katona, who operates the music and sound effects. Retro Game Show Night audience member Colleen Halpin said Tempest DuJour is quick-witted like an improvising comedian. “I never knew what to expect next,” Halpin said. “The show is over the top and fun.” Holt said he enjoys balancing his offstage persona with that of Tempest DuJour. “If you don’t take it too seriously, you will have a good experience,” Holt said.

J.J. Matijevic had the offensive game of his young collegiate career last night to help Arizona baseball thwart No. 10 ASU (2813, 13-5 Pac-12 Conference) 17-6 and snap a five-game losing streak. The freshman stole the momentum for the Wildcats (2517, 9-12) in an explosive first inning where he hit his first career grand slam for his second home run of the season. Matijevic — who went 3-for4 on the night — came back and hit a 2-RBI triple in the second
Arizona earns No.1 seed at NCAA’s
Fresh off the program’s fourth straight losing season, the Arizona women’s basketball program finalized its 2015 recruiting class on Tuesday. The Wildcats added four players to the program: 6-foot-8 center Eugenie Simonet-Keller, 5-foot-7 guard Michal Miller, 6-foot-2 forward A’Shanti Coleman and 6-foot-2 forward Destiny Graham. The 2014 class consisted of mainly guards and saw highly touted Taryn Griffey miss the entire season due to injury. Hailing from Le Biot, France, Simonet-Keller is the tallest player in Arizona women’s basketball history and the second tallest player in the Pac-12 Conference behind UCLA’s 6-foot-9 center Savanna Trapp. The previous tallest player in program history was 6-foot-7 center Beatrice Bofia in the 2006-07 season. According to a UA press release, Simonet-Keller is a three-time selection for the French Women’s National Team and is currently listed as the tallest female of her generation in France. Arizona women’s basketball coach Niya Butts said Simonet-Keller will bring size and skill to the Wildcat front court. “On the court, Eugenie has a lot of tools for us to work with,” Butts said in a press release. “She is mobile, has great hands and the ability to face up. Eugenie has a huge upside and strong work ethic. Our staff is excited

After the game on Sunday, he came to me and said, ‘I want the ball.’ … For him to do that and then back it up by pitching like that was pretty good. That’s [the] factor we are missing.” Medel, like Matijevic, said it was time for him to step up and contribute to the team, and the win was exactly what Arizona needed going into the last three conference series of the season. “I knew I could come out and

He said his performance on defense was “unacceptable” and something he needs to get better at. Aside from the errors, Arizona’s pitching was without much fault.

I’ve got to do whatever I have to do to help this team win.” Batting just .192 at the beginning of the series against California last weekend, Matijevic has raised his average to .228 in four games since.

The Arizona women’s golf team is having one of the best months in Division I golf right now. The Wildcats earned a spot at their 23rd consecutive NCAA Regional Championship on Monday and will be the No. 1 seed at the Notre Dame regional site in South Bend, Ind. The Wildcats have won two straight titles, including the PING/ ASU Invitational in the first half of April, after the Wildcats remained under par in the final two rounds (-12, -3), and then earned coach Laura Ianello’s second Pac-12 Conference Championship as a coach on April 22. Beating the cream of the crop in the Pac-12 is a well-earned accomplishment for Arizona, Ianello said. The Wildcats earned the No. 1 seed as Ianello’s squad made a late push in the month of April to climb the rankings. “They deserve to be that No. 1 seed after winning [the] conference this year and beating out USC, UCLA and Washington,” Ianello said. “Those teams were ahead of us all year, but it feels good.” Traveling to South Bend will also be a homecoming for junior Lindsey Weaver, who played for the Fighting Irish her freshman year and

The Sun Devils tacked on another run before giving Arizona a chance at the plate. That’s when the Wildcats took control. After a groundout by Scott Kingery, Arizona recorded three consecutive singles, the third an RBI single from Bobby Dalbec. ASU starter Ryan Hingst then walked designated hitter Michael Hoard, loading the bases for Matijevic. The rest is history.

didn’t have a player over 6-foot-1 on the 2014-15 roster, the Wildcats will complement Simonet-Keller with 6-foot-2 forwards Coleman and Graham. Coleman comes to Arizona from Sacred Heart Cathedral Prep in San Francisco. She is the 108th ranked forward in the country, according to “The Jump Off Plus.” Butts said Coleman’s athleticism will greatly help the Arizona frontline, an area that was lacking last season. “A’Shanti Coleman is an exceptional athlete and fits well in our system and the way we like to play,” Butts said. “She’s a transition post player who gets up and down the floor, can finish around the rim and make the 16- to 18-foot jumper. She also has a tremendous presence inside in terms of blocking shots.” Graham comes to Arizona from Eastside College Prep in East Palo Alto, Calif., and is ranked as the No. 28 forward in the country by Collegiate Girls Basketball Report. Along the same lines as Coleman, Butts said Graham brings athleticism and agility to the team. “Destiny Graham is extremely

Three batters later, Dalbec hit a three-run homer, his 13th of the season, to capitalize on backto-back walks given by the Sun Devils. ASU walked seven batters, including three consecutive walks — one of which ASU reliever Jordan Aboites hit Dalbec in the back — that scored two unearned runs in the sixth. “As a team, we need to forget where we were and where we have been,” Medel said. “We need to build off this and go into [Pullman, Wash.], and win one in a row three times. All we’ve got to do is win one in a row.” Arizona’s 17-run night was its largest of the season. The Wildcats scored 16 runs against Eastern Michigan on Feb. 14.

athletic and agile,” Butts said. “She brings a bit more size than we have now, and her presence is certainly going to be needed. Destiny fits our style of play and has a huge upside. We are looking forward to her joining our family.” The lone guard in the 2015 class, Miller comes to Arizona from Michigan City High School in Michigan City, Ind., and was ranked as the 35th-best guard in the country by Collegiate Girls Basketball Report. Butts said Miller will bring versatility and shooting to the Wildcats. “I feel like we were able to get one of the best perimeter players in this class in Michal Miller,” Butts said. “She is an extremely versatile guard who can play all three spots on the perimeter. She can slash and get to the basket, has a solid midrange jump shot and her game beyond the arc is also efficient. She has all the tools to be one of the great players in our league, so we’re really excited about that.” With back-to-back talented recruiting classes, there is certainly optimism from the Arizona women’s basketball program.

MEN’S TENNIS
Arizona ends season on disappointing note BY STEVIE KATZ
The Daily Wildcat
Arizona men’s tennis season has come to a close with hopes of one of the players making it as an individual to the NCAA Individual Championships. Junior Naoki Takeda, who is ranked No. 62, is awaiting his fate. He took down Dominik Koepfer in February, who was the No. 5-ranked tennis player in the nation, but Takeda said he’s not trying to over think whether he will make the tournament or not. “It would be good for me and the team if I’m not selected, but I’m not over thinking about it,” Takeda said. “If I’m selected, I’ll just keep training hard and be ready for the tournament.” Takeda said he’s mostly disappointed the team didn’t make the tournament. He also said he would be more than happy to make the individual selection, but if he could trade it for the whole team to make the tournament, he would definitely do that. Takeda’s swinging arm was hurt for a good chunk of the season, and he was forced to sit out a couple matches. “I’m not fully satisfied even though I beat the [No. 5 guy] and beat a couple ranked guys, because I couldn’t contribute to the team in the middle of the season by arm injury,” Takeda said. “Also, we couldn’t make the tournament as a team, so we cannot be satisfied.” The team ended the season with a record of 8-19 and 0-7 in the Pac12 Conference, which put it in last place. All teams in the Pac-12 make it to the Pac-12 Championships, but the Wildcats didn’t make it far, as they lost in the first round to Oregon, 4-1. The Wildcats went through heartbreaking losses and great wins during the season, but it didn’t prove to be enough. Senior Sumeet Shinde, who is from India and was once one of the top-70 players in the world, could not finish out the end of the season

Shinde has been ranked as high as No. 74 in the ITA single’s rankings earlier this year. Shinde racked in eight victories this season, including four from the No. 1 spot. Arizona coach Tad Berkowitz said Shinde is a great player when he is on his game. The other graduating senior, Robin Chou, had a record of 4-4 overall and went 2-2 in dual play during the spring.
Pause. Read The Wildcat
Chou wanted to come to Arizona because he wanted to play under Berkowitz and compete in the Pac-12. Chou and Shinde both came to the UA together and have developed a relationship based on competition and support. Chou also said he enjoyed watching Shinde play because of how great of a player he is.

shined with Notre Dame. Weaver was named unanimous Big East Women’s Golf Player of the Year and named to the All-Big East Women’s Golf Team. With Weaver’s experience, the Wildcats have the upper edge, even against the hosting Fighting Irish. “I’m excited to go back to Notre Dame,” Weaver said. “I do know that the course can get pretty hard and the greens are sometimes tricky, but I think I will be able to give my team some helpful tips heading into regionals.” Joining Arizona in South Bend will be Duke, Oklahoma State, Wake Forest, UC Davis, Pepperdine, Tulane, Notre Dame, Purdue, Kent State, Louisville, San Jose State, North Carolina, Kentucky, Harvard, Troy, Eastern Kentucky and Youngstown State. Arizona will be the only Pac-12 team, which can be the ideal scenario for the Wildcats. Even though Arizona should be the favorite to win the region, don’t exclude the defending national champion — Duke. Duke is familiar with Arizona after the Wildcats finished ahead of the Blue Devils at the PING/ASU Invitational. Duke won the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate title in Hilton Head, S.C., in early March. Duke also
finished in second place at the ACC Championship, so the Blue Devils have the motive to knock off the Wildcats. Arizona will have its hands full as the Wildcats match up with the hosting school while also trying to dethrone the defending national champions. To go along with winning three of the last four tournaments, Arizona had a trio of Wildcats honored by the Pac-12. Weaver and senior Manon Gidali received All-Pac-12 First-Team honors for the second time in each of their careers. Freshman Krystal Quihuis also earned All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention. These three Wildcats have been household names all season, and the trio has potential to post the best scores at the Notre Dame regional site. Arizona will have to adjust in South Bend, but the Wildcats have only played one home event in the spring. Being the No. 1 seed has a deep meaning to the Wildcats, said sophomore Wanasa Zhou. “There’s going to be a little more traveling, and it’ll be a different atmosphere,” Zhou said, “but I believe the team will be prepared. Having that No. 1 seed will send us into regionals with a lot of confidence.” — Follow Justin Spears @Hercules_52

Stringing in harmony BY CHELSEA COOK The Daily Wildcat
Tonight, take a cue from several of the best graduate musicians at the UA. A quartet of master’s and doctoral students that were selected through a national search will perform in their inaugural recital in Holsclaw Hall. The UA Graduate String Quartet is made up of two violinists, Emily Nolan and JoAnna Park, one violist, Kathryn Harpainter, and one cellist, Robert Marshall. The group will perform multiple pieces at the concert: Haydn’s “Quartet in G Major” and “Op. 77 No. 1,” Mendelssohn’s “Quartet No. 1 in E-flat Major” and “Op. 12,” and Shostakovich’s “Quartet No. 9 in E-flat Major” and “Op. 117,” according to the official page on the Fred Fox School of Music website. The Graduate String Quartet is in its first year at the UA and was created to aid with the School of Music’s outreach and educational initiatives. The group is required to put on one annual recital to demonstrate the art its members have collaborated on throughout the year. Quartet members were chosen through an international search for students who had received extensive training in chamber music.
COURTESY OF THE FRED FOX SCHOOL OF MUSIC
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: Kathryn Harpainter, Emily Nolan, Robert Marshall and JoAnna Park. The four string musicians will perform their inaugural recital as the Graduate String Quartet tonight in Holsclaw Hall.
“We have essentially been preparing all year for this recital,” Nolan said. “It’s a big deal.” Both UA faculty members and guest artists mentor the group throughout the year to prepare
it for recitals and participation in both summer music festivals and chamber music competitions. Not only do the students perform as a group, but they are also pursuing graduate degrees that

focuses on chamber music performance. The quartet members also serve as leaders in the symphony orchestra. The musicians chosen to be part of this newly established
group will receive experience in performing, teaching and leadership. The students are some of the top musicians in the country for their particular instrument. When asked how she developed a passion for the violin, Nolan said she grew up in a musical family. “It all stems from my upbringing,” Nolan said. “My father is a pianist, organist and vocalist; music was essential in the household, considering all of my siblings began on the violin.” Nolan’s past shows how these musicians have worked throughout their lives to get to where they are today. “My advice [to a student pursuing music],” Nolan said, “is to always keep in mind that you are one of a few that are truly pursuing their passion. It may seem like things get crazy as a music student, but do not give up on the integrity of music and what it provides for not only yourself, but for everyone around you.” The Graduate String Quartet’s inaugural recital will be held in Holsclaw Hall at 7 p.m. The event is open to the general public, and admission is free.

t’s 1992, and a conflict rages between Georgian troops and Abkhaz separatists, shortly following the fall of the Soviet Union. In the Oscar-nominated foreign film “Tangerines,” warring factions patrol the Republic of Georgia, outfitted in sinister implements of destruction, including machine guns and bazookas. While many locals flee the rural countryside of Abkhazia to seek haven in more urban settings, two Estonian immigrant farmers remain to harvest the last of the tangerine crops. Following a fatal firefight outside the tangerine orchards, only two men from the warring factions remain: Ahmed and Niko. Ivo, an Estonian refugee, discovers the injured men and assumes responsibility for the Muslim Ahmed and the Christian Niko. He nurses them back to health under the same roof. “Tangerines” is the creative brainchild of Georgian director Zaza Urushadze and embodies a lofty wartime message. Urushadze works to deliver an impassioned testament to common sense in this anti-war manifesto. Though all characters portrayed in the film maintained radically different ideals, cultures and spiritualities, “Tangerines” is a live-action demonstration of camaraderie and brotherhood. A hypothetical truce emerges when characters Ahmed and Niko are able to view each other as human beings rather than enemies. As Estonia’s first Oscar-nominated Best Foreign Language Film, “Tangerines” artistically demonstrates that mortal enemies can grow and heal together. There is an undeniable wryness to Urushadze’s cinematic approach to an issue far greater than himself. While the film’s focus fades in and out of near-humorous exchanges between Ivo, Ahmed and Niko, the audience is never allowed to forget the tensions that arise through religion and ethnicity. Ivo’s pacifism may work to temporarily tame

the animosities between the enemies in his own home. However, whatever temporary truce created, it is simply a moot point. Urushadve’s work is a lesson of arising resilience in ancient tensions, but also in the common sense so lacking in resolution. While Ahmed and Niko are able to explain their perspectives to the “enemy” and build a begrudging tolerance, pugnacity inevitably outshines pacifism. “Tangerines” is a constant give-and-take between peace and war. The tangerines provide color to the mildly claustrophobic, tense, gray drama. They serve as symbols of Ivo’s hope for a brighter future. However, their luster is misleading, as like the land they grow on, the tangerines are

ultimately indifferent to who possesses what. As the film progresses, hope for a lasting peace between the two enemies slackens. The outside world begins to seek Ahmed and Niko’s lives, and the protagonists are reminded that pacifism is not a truly viable option. “Tangerines” reminds its audience that war is brutal, merciless and ultimately senseless. Urushadve’s film is a heartfelt — and essential — reminder of this reality. Though Ivo, Ahmed and Niko bond over unlikely circumstances, Urushadve gently reminds the audience that peace is a process slow in the making. There exists hope between men while war reaps widespread destruction and suffering. And even when men fail, the land will remain.

OK Go is one highly visual band set to perform at the Rialto Theatre on Thursday. Though its sound has changed over the years from rock-pop to new rave to electro, OK Go’s videos have their own, distinct look. You’ve probably seen OK Go do a treadmill dance routine in its “Here It Goes Again” video, which was featured in an Apple Inc. advertisement. Colorful, funny, catchy; this style has never changed, even sonically. The band is also notorious for its live shows, which is apparent when looking at fan comments. Many recommend that you go see the band live; comments rank from “a breath of fresh air, fiesta, pure joy and fun” to people wondering how much confetti its members eat a year. “About 70 pounds each,” said Tim Nordwind, OK Go’s bass player. “We try to integrate the stuff we do in our videos into our live shows. We spend a lot of time thinking about what we could in a room with a couple thousand people to make it a unique, emotional experience. We’re a band, so music comes first, but we try to look at things from a different perspective. It gets pretty crazy.” And where does such a creative band get its inspiration from? Daft Punk is definitely an inspiration, at least for Nordwind. “As soon as the world’s caught up to them, they’re doing something completely new that’s blowing everyone away,” Nordwind said. “And it works. They’ve been around for so long.”
OK Go’s been around for some time, too. The band formed in 1998, and after a couple adjustments in its formation, it won a Grammy Award for the aforementioned music video in 2007. Its contesters (The Killers, Red Hot Chili Peppers) might have put more money into their videos, but what OK Go lacked in dollars it made up for with time and energy. Its members even founded a label in order to keep full creative freedom. “It’s working pretty good,” Nordwind said. “If we have a video idea or a performance idea, a book idea or an art idea, we are free to follow those. We’re lucky to be in the position where we are able to do that.” The newest video for “I Won’t Let You Down” shows the band doing a choreography on scooter chairs, looking every bit as funny as it sounds. The clip was sponsored by Honda and filmed with a drone in one shot, like most of OK Go’s videos. “Each video can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months,” Nordwind said, “while recording a record takes us about a year.” So, what can we expect from OK Go’s show in Tucson tomorrow? “We always try to provide a special experience,” Nordwind said. “We’ve been touring Canada and the East Coast recently, so we’re very much looking forward to coming back to a warmer climate.” The all-ages concert at the Rialto will open its doors at 7 p.m.
