Top 10 stories of the year • wednesday, may 12, 2010 • arizona daily wildcat

The following are some of the biggest headliners of the 2009-10 academic year featured in the Arizona Daily Wildcat.

They are presented in no particular order.

Swine flu hits UA

The H1N1 influenza virus, commonly known as swine flu, broke out on campus in late August 2009. The school had 25 reported cases of the flu and one confirmed case of an unidentified female with swine flu.

In early September 2009 Campus Health Services stopped testing for swine flu after the first case was confirmed. They only tested to see when it would hit campus and once it did, they treated everyone for their flu symptoms.

They suggested that students with flu-like symptoms stay home. In the second week of September Campus Health Services implemented a “flu nurse” phone service for students to call and get diagnosed.

In early November Campus Health Services offered swine flu vaccines in Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall for those people most at risk. Anyone living in a residence hall could be vaccinated but they gave priority to those 18 and younger.

Faculty has ‘no confidence’ in Shelton, Hay

In September the Wildcat reported a blog had been started by members of the UA faculty and staff to anonymously speak out against UA President Robert Shelton and UA Provost Meredith Hay. The Blogspot. com site, “UA Defender,” had posts alleging at “four month’s (sic) into her tenure as provost, the deans were ready to oust Meredith Hay over her budget over-reaching,” that a vote of no confidence was necessary and that the university-wide General Education Committee, which oversaw the UA’s General Education Program, has seen its abilities and responsibilities shrink as the provost’s office exerts more control. In response, the university released a poll asking for feedback from faculty. The poll asked voters to gauge their confidence in Shelton and Hay. More than 300 voters replied that they had no confidence, while 98 said they had full confidence.

be ready for students for fall 2011 and will house 1,088 students.

The Student Recreation Center hosted its grand opening on Feb. 22 in the form of a two-day celebration.

The opening was called the “Big Green Event” because the new center was built with sustainability in mind.

The $28.5 million facility features two stories of workout machines, an outdoor bouldering wall, two outdoor volleyball sand courts and a multi-activity court.

The upgrades to the Rec Center made it the first university recreation center to earn a platinum Leaders in Energy Efficiency and Design designation.

The Student Recreation Center was closed from 6 a.m. to noon on Feb. 10 due to a problem with water pipes.

It also flooded on Feb. 28 from a trench in the construction area of the Sixth Street dorms.

Important legislation

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, less than half (49 percent) of Americans aged 18-24 voted in the 2008 elections, the lowest of any age range. But just because some college-aged individuals choose not to take part in the legislative process does not mean they are not affected by the outcome.

In the past year the UA saw tempers flare and debates rage on a variety of political issues, from the concealed weapons for professors law, to the ongoing debates over Senate Bill 1070, to the sales tax increase of Proposition 100.

The Associated Students of the University of Arizona held several forums throughout the year to give students the opportunity to voice their opinions. They passed a resolution opposing concealed weapons for professors.

Presently the biggest debate is over SB1070, a bill designed to curb illegal immigration, which is being criticized for allowing what opponents believe to be racial profiling. On May 5 students protested on campus against the new immigration law and got more than 1,400 signatures on a petition to get UA President Robert Shelton to formally denounce the bill.

The following day Shelton released a statement calling the bill “flawed.”

Campus construction

The UA saw a lot of construction this year from the expansion of the Student Recreation Center to new residence halls on Sixth Street.

Noise from construction on the new Sixth Street Residence Halls at the corner of Euclid Avenue and Sixth Street bothered some Coronado residents.

UAccess wrap-up

Student Link went through a major transformation for both students and employees with the new UAccess system.

All employee systems such as payroll and timekeeping were moved to the new UAccess Employee system earlier this year.

UAccess allows for all parts of campus to run on a single type of software allowing for 24-hour updates and faster processing.

Starting in fall 2009, the Mosaic Project, headed by University Information Technology Services, moved to link much of the important student information into one place, UAccess.

Delineated $50 million at the end of the 2008-09 school year, the Mosaic Project worked to bring online a complete revamp of access to student financial aid, biographic and class information as well as a new class registration system with the Cat Cart, allowing students to browse classes and queue them before registration time.

UAccess had some initial faltering.

or incomplete and some information was hard to find for students. Many felt that without training on how to use the new system, UAccess Student would be more a hindrance than a help.

Transfer students and incoming freshmen had different worries about the system and with initial slowness persisting through early March, some departments went as far as to place all their registration outside the system.

However, by the height of class registration in mid-April, more than 30,000 students had been provisioned in the system and more than 63,000 classes were registered for students for the upcoming summer and fall semesters.

Think Tank on campus

In August 2009 a new tutoring location on campus opened its doors and has since served thousands of students. Prior to the Think Tank, there were many separate tutoring programs all over campus, for specific needs, which was not efficient or economical.

Officials wanted to centralize the service to save costs during budget cuts. The center consists of the writing center, math and science tutoring and peer mentoring, as well as drop-in tutoring and various workshops. All of its programs are free, except one-onone tutoring appointments. According to program estimates, its various services saw approximately 3,000 students make more than 12,000 visits in fall 2009. In February 2010 the Think Tank held workshops for freshmen

In January 2010 Haiti was hit by a 7.0-magnitude earthquake, and the UA began gathering help in different ways for the devastated country. A group of graduate students put on a fundraiser, and one of the group’s members had family in Haiti who were affected by the earthquake. The UA Office of International Student Programs and Services collected donations of items requested by the nonprofit organization World Care in

Haiti hits UA

The UA struggled to balance its budget in August 2009. UA President Robert Shelton told the Arizona Board of Regents his plan to increase enrollment by 10,000 students by the year 2020.To save money in the current year, the Colleges of Science, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Humanities and Fine Arts were consolidated into the Colleges of Letters, Arts and Science. At the November meeting of the UA Faculty Senate, Provost Meredith Hay introduced a largescale reformation of the UA’s budget management process known as the “Budget Redesign,” which Hay called “probably the most complicated, indepth redesign of the university’s budget ever.” The plan, which Hay said will take many months to put

Advertising Manager Mike Spohn saw three men take all copies of the newspaper from a stand near the Park Student Union. Students and staff reported seeing similar incidents across campus that morning.

President Robert Shelton and journalism assistant Professor Kevin Kemper said the theft interfered with the flow of information and free speech on the UA campus.

Wildcat reporters approached Phi Kappa Psi fraternity leadership several times and asked whether the fraternity had any involvement with the theft, as was suspected, but the president and

A group of medical students hosted an event at local bar and restaurant Gentle Ben’s called “Help Haiti Shake the Quake.” The Beta Theta Pi fraternity sold T-shirts to members of the UA and Greek Life communities to raise money and awareness.

vice president of the fraternity would neither confirm nor deny involvement.

“I’m not going to talk about this at all,” said Keith Peters, president of Phi Kappa Psi.“We’re not supposed to talk to the media.”

Some of the thousands of Arizona Daily Wildcat issues stolen were recovered at two sites near West Anklam Road on Oct. 9. Among the abandoned newspapers was the homework with the names of UA students Nick Kovaleski and Alex Cornell, both undeclared freshmen and members of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity. On Nov. 6, the UA Greek Standards Board sent out an official report and found Phi Kappa Psi not responsible in the stolen newspapers case.

Tuition on the rise

In February 2010 UA President Robert Shelton submitted a tuition proposal to the Arizona Board of Regents. In-state undergraduate and graduate tuition would increase by $1,450, to $7,224 and $8,014, respectively. Non-resident tuition would raise by $2,000, to $22,983 for undergraduates and $23,276 for graduate students. Students protested the proposal. In early March 2010 ABOR held a video-streamed tuition hearing with all three Arizona universities. Shelton proposed a less dramatic increase to tuition, and on March 11 ABOR approved it. Resident undergraduate tuition for the 2010-11 academic year will be $8,237, a 20-percent increase.

UA non-resident undergraduate tuition will be $24,596, a 10-percent increase. UA resident graduate tuition will be $9,027, an 18-percent increase. For non-resident graduate students, tuition will be $24,889, a 10-percent increase.

The cost of real education A

s I have seen in the last up valuable time and resources, four years, the choice to especially concerning the defunct enroll in a university is Arizona state legislature. Recently, not just about picking the right the state joined in a lawsuit against school. By displacing themselves the federal government, accusing and moving to a new state, recent health care legislation of students make the conscious being unconstitutional. The suit decision to immerse themselves is laughable for many reasons, in a new environment and none moreso than the hypocrisy broaden their horizons. of Arizona claiming to even know The University of Arizona, what constitutionality is. placed in sunny For Arizona to Tucson, is a ethically allege bastion for Arizona unconstitutionality, residents, California it should have to migrants and a abide by its own whole host of constitution as well. students looking Unfortunately, the Daniel Sotelo for almost a year’s state’s inability to do Columnist worth of hot so is the prime cause weather, bronzing sun and epic of the UA’s “transformation” pool parties.

Arizona and other states who make the commitment to attend the UA. When students enroll at the UA, but lose a job or other means of financial support, their loss does not entitle them to pay diminished tuition.

The Arizona legislature has abandoned the most critical principle of higher education — that is, “as nearly free as possible.” This principal has fueled the UA’s advancement by enrolling millions of students, who may have not been able to attend a major research university at the current rate of tuition. By spending time on ideologicallycharged but practically-failing legislation, the legislature sends a message that education is the primary responsibility of the individuals, but far from that of the state.

As students, the information we learn from books, articles and papers comprise a myriad of data and incongruent research.

We complete assignments, hoping to get a good grade and, quite possibly, learn something.

As citizens, or “real adults,” the things we learn come rushing back to us, but with a different level of perception and application. No longer do we recite dates and numbers, but we relearn lessons. If there is one lesson that all students learn, it’s the idea of maintaining one’s principles and values in the face of hardship and easy alternatives. It’s also a lesson that the legislature has forgotten at an amnesiac rate.

M A I L B A G : THIS YEAR’S ISSUES SB1070 rally a success

Finally the UA has taken a stand in regards to Senate Bill 1070. On Wednesday, May 5, spectators gathered at the Wildcat statue in the middle of campus to watch the disapproving speeches regarding SB1070, which condones police officers to stop any persons who may resemble an illegal immigrant from Mexico.

The audience, packed with mostly students and faculty members of the UA, stood in 95-degree heat for over an hour to cheer and rally for numerous speeches made against the law. Speakers argued that the law is an approval for law enforcement to racially profile people who appear more “brown” than others. They compared the new law to Jim Crow Laws of the slavery era, and warned the audience members that the law is a message to warn Americans that racism is not put to rest by any means.

Specifically, speakers addressed UA President Robert Shelton and his acceptance of the law. In Shelton’s approval, he told reporters not to worry because he will be training the campus police department to correctly abide by the law. Speakers thrived off Shelton’s answer, arguing that it puts thousands of Arizona students in the direct path of racial profiling, and furthermore puts them in danger. Broadcasters from FOX, CBS and NBC were filming the more than thousand-person rally.

Hopefully, students in Arizona will keep improving their interest into the law and realize that their voice is heard more than anybody’s.

Red tags a red hot mess

After observing my friend receive a “red tag” I have realized that the red tag program is an obvious attempt by the UA and the City of Tucson to extract undeserved monies from the student population. Further, not only does this program constitute an infringement of my constitutional rights, but the red sticker damages personal property. Our constitution

guarantees that “no person shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law.”The term “due process” has been interpreted as a person is entitled to “notice and hearing” when the government intends to make a decision which will affect an individual’s rights. Given the forgoing, I vigorously oppose any efforts by the UA or the City of Tucson to extort monies to which they are not entitled.

— Jonathan Messing Undergraduate

Raised tuition not worth it

The growing number of out-ofstate students, including myself, at the UA face high expectations caused by the cost to go here. On top of the heavy burden made from the costs, I personally have received difficulties made from simply trying to get in classes to graduate in time. For the price, I feel that the last thing I should be worried about are general education classes being full. With the high costs I already pay and the difficulty to even get into my classes, my decision to attend school back home keeps becoming a stronger possibility. I am just about to complete my freshman year and I know that I still have at least three years of increasing costs still to come. In an economy that doesn’t even currently offer many decent jobs for graduating college students, I am not sure why I am not taking my first two years of college through an almost free community college back home. The price to attend college out-of-state is only increasing and I have no rush graduating as long as decent jobs aren’t even available. I know that when in doubt about attending school at the UA, I double my efforts in class, but the problems caused through registration continue to nag me and reduce my ability to be optomistic. My advice for all students is to be confident that your college investment is worth the price.

What do our diplomas really mean?

But having been barraged for the Ask a Viking where thunder comes past several years with from, he’ll say Thor. Ask an astonishing amount a physicist, you’ll get of information which a substantially longer nevertheless (it has answer, and probably closer to the truth. But become increasingly clear) failed to constitute Knut, knowing what even the bulk of our little he knows, is Ben Harper particular fields, we aware of no reason to Columnist should be careful about question the validity of what we conclude from his theory. Where does our diplomas. If there’s one thing lightning come from? Other men, education teaches, it is the depths obviously, who live in the sky! of our own ignorance. Here I turn to All of our epistemic claims are arguably Socrates’ greatest one-liner, based upon previous epistemic “I know that I know nothing.” claims, which we’ve taken to be true.

The history of my discipline — and This is quite reasonable; we probably yours, I reckon — is a convoluted have a good deal of information narrative tracing the popularity which we believe is evidence for

these assertions, and it’s better to make some attempt at understanding the world rather than throw up our hands and resign ourselves to total ignorance. But these more basal claims may themselves be incorrect — who knows how our theories will be seen in light of new information.

In philosophy this is known as anti-foundationalism. The positivist philosopher Otto Neurath famously represented the process of scientific progress as akin to rebuilding a ship as one is sailing it.

This has two horrifying implications. The first is that to understand any single phenomenon requires a titanic if not infinite amount of knowledge. The second is that we have no idea exactly which pieces are missing, or exactly how we’ll have to restructure our beliefs

when we find them.

I don’t want this to collapse into a trite “keep an open mind” message.

People who only intend to keep an open mind generally believe they’re correct until proven otherwise. And it’s certainly not my intention to attack education. Without being exposed to a good deal of knowledge it’s difficult to learn how little you know, and that modicum of knowledge is itself important. It’s all we have to go on, all we can use to construct slightly better theories of how the world works.

But be aware of how little you know.

Proceed with that in mind. Almost certainly, most of our beliefs are way off, and at least one of our most sacred truths will, given enough time, become another hilarious example of primitive gullibility.

All I’m suggesting is that we

should approach our beliefs (political, scientific, theological, psychological, philosophical) with a healthy sense of skepticism. We have no choice but to act and think according to what we judge to be right, and we shouldn’t shy away from doing so, nor should we believe unwaveringly in the accuracy of our own intellects. Hubris is the first act of every tragedy.

A little knowledge, they say, is a dangerous thing. But it’s not the knowledge itself that’s dangerous — it’s the confidence. But if, after a full college career, you go out into the world knowing how ignorant you are (and will always be), you may just have learned something.

policebeat

By Bridgette Doran Arizona Daily Wildcat

Hot dog spends evening in big house

University of Arizona Police Department officers were on patrol in the area of Vine Avenue and First Street on Nov. 1, 2009, at 12:46 a.m. when a man in a hot dog costume jumped out into the street in front of their fully marked police cruiser, extended the middle finger on his left hand toward officers, and screamed,“Fuck you.”

Officers exited the vehicle and made contact with the man. They asked him for identification and he replied that he did not have any on his person. Officers noticed the strong odor of intoxicants coming from the man’s mouth as he spoke. Police asked the man how old he was and he replied that he was 19. Police then asked the man for his name, which he gave as Michael Joseph Jackson. Police attempted several times to determine the man’s real name and age, but he continued to provide false information. Officers eventually determined who the man was and placed him under arrest. During a search of his person, officers discovered a fictitious California driver’s license.

They cited the man on charges of false reporting to a law enforcement officer, possession of a fake ID and minor in possession. He was transported to Pima County Jail where he was booked.

Soaring roses don’t win hearts

UAPD officers were on patrol in Arizona Stadium on Nov. 21, 2009, at 9:15 p.m. when they observed a man throw a bouquet of roses onto the field. The bouquet struck a woman on the left side of her head, causing a laceration to her forehead. Officers located the individual who had thrown the flowers and made contact with him.

They asked him if he knew that he had struck somebody and he stated that he had not meant to.

Officers escorted the man and the woman that he struck into the tunnel underneath the seating areas. They asked the woman if she wished to press charges and she stated that she did not, but she did wish to speak to the man. The man was unapologetic and restated that striking the woman had been an accident. Officers again asked the woman if she wished to press charges. She asked the man what year he was at the university. When he responded that he had already graduated, the woman immediately decided to press charges. The man was cited on charges of assault with minor injury and released on scene.

Woman slapped by bicyclist

A woman reported to UAPD being hit by a man at the intersection of Second Street and Mountain Avenue on Feb. 5 at 8 a.m when she stopped to pick up a newspaper. When she was picking up the paper she was struck in the leg by a bicyclist riding on the sidewalk.

The woman told the bicyclist he should not be riding on the sidewalk, and when she did this he slapped her across the face.

When the man hit the woman, her glasses flew off into the intersection. She described the man as between 18 and 20 years old with dark blonde, shoulder length hair.

The officer reported the woman as having a light red mark on her left cheek. There was no injury to her leg where the bicycle hit her.

The woman said if the man was found, she would like to press charges, but does not think she would be able to identify him.

The woman was told to call the police right away if she saw the man again, but not to confront him.

Creeper’s creepy cleaning

A woman flagged down a UAPD officer on March 17 at 5:15 p.m. at the U-Mart in the Student Union Memorial Center.

The woman was in a wheelchair and told the officer that earlier in the day, at 2:45 p.m., she was leaving a bathroom and was approached by a man who asked,“Can I help you?”

The woman said the man walked her to the Starbucks inside the UA Bookstor e and bought her a coffee.

The man then walked her to her residence hall and entered the hall with her. He also followed her to her room on the first floor and went inside with her.

Once inside the room, the man told the woman her pants were dirty — that she should change them.

She went inside the bathroom to change her pants, and the man followed her inside. She told him to get out of the bathroom, and he did.

When she got out of the bathroom, she tried to tidy her room because it was messy and started to pick up clothing items as well.

The woman reported becoming uncomfortable and wanting the man to leave but didn’t know how to ask him.

The man told the woman that her shirt was dirty and she should change that too. When she took her hat off, the man said her hair was dirty and asked her if he could wash it for her. She told him “No.” He then said,“Your face is dirty, I’ll wash it for you.”

The woman said she would do it herself, and after wiping her face off with a cloth, she handed it to him to throw away, and he began wiping her face with it.

The woman said she was uncomfortable and told the man that she had to go.

The man walked with her and told her that he had seen her around campus before and was a graduate student.

The police officer told the woman that if she sees the man again, she should call UAPD immediately.

Man poops pants to resist arrest

A UAPD officer performed a traffic stop on March 24 at 9:57 p.m. after a random registration check showed the car owner had a warrant from Tucson Police Department.

When the officer pulled the car over, the driver got out and started walking toward the officer.

The officer asked the man for identification and he walked back to the driver’s seat, got in the car, sat down and said that he would not give his information and that he did not recognize “illegal government authority.”

The officer told the man that if he did not give his information he would be arrested. The man became upset and threw his car keys onto the floorboard. He then gave the officer a paper, saying it was an international driver’s license from the Pembina Indian Tribe of North Dakota.

As the officer was doing a records check on the license, the man shut the car door and locked both the driver’s side and passenger side doors.

The records check showed that the license was suspended and there was a warrant for his arrest from TPD. Another UAPD officer arrived to the scene and both officers tried to convince the man to unlock the doors and get out of the car.

The officer was able to open the passenger side door and the man said he understood he was under arrest, but would not assist the officers in his own arrest.

Once the driver side door was unlocked the man went limp and said that he would have to be carried out of the car.

The man was taken from the car, handcuffed and carried to the patrol car.

On the way to the Pima County Jail, the officer could smell an odor coming from the backseat and rolled down his window.

The man began to laugh when he rolled the window down and said he knew what the smell was. He told the officer that he defecated in his pants “as an added surprise”for the officer and“to further show it as a means of resistance for being arrested.”

When they arrived to the jail the man said he would not walk into the jail and it would be an embarrassment for him to be placed in jail after defecating on himself.

The jail staff was able to convince the man to walk into the jail and he said that he could not believe he was assisting his own arrest.

The man was booked into the jail for the suspended license and the warrant. His car was impounded.

Paper airplane almost causes car crash

A UAPD officer was on patrol on Speedway Boulevard on April 7 at 11:30 p.m. when he noticed three men and a woman standing by the bus stop at 4055 E. Speedway Blvd. As the officer drove near the bus stop, one of the men took a couple steps toward the road and threw an orange object at the windshield of the patrol car.

The officer reported that the object hit the windshield and rolled over the top of the vehicle.

There was also another car immediately next to his in the middle lane and pedestrians near where the object hit.

The officer turned the patrol around, and, as he got out of the car to speak with the man, the man started yelling, “Oh, man that was stupid, I really fucked up and shouldn’t have thrown that at you.

I guess I could have caused an accident.”

The officer asked the man if he knew he was throwing the object at a police car, and he said that he didn’t know because the police SUV does not look like a “normal” police car.

The officer got the object from the street and saw that it was a piece of paper folded into the shape of an airplane.

The officer could also smell alcohol on the man and noticed slurred speech. The man said he drank 10 beers at a bar near his home.

He also stated that he got the piece of paper from the Lucky Strike bowling alley at 4025 E. Speedway Blvd. and then folded into an airplane.

He kept telling the officer that he didn’t know he was throwing anything at a police car and that what he did was stupid and unsafe.

The man was arrested for criminal littering for throwing trash into a public roadway and criminal nuisance for recklessly creating a condition that endangered the safety of others.

The man was cited and released on scene, and a taxi was called for the group.

Top stories of 2009-10

devastation of Haiti from January’s earthquake, the U.S. government and nonprofit organizations were not the only groups that moved to provide humanitarian aid. In Tucson, student and non-student artists, performers and bands such as Race You There, The Triple Double Band, Spirit Familia helped in their own ways, whether through benefit concerts or handcrafted works of art.

Even though it is finally showing signs of recovery, the depressed economy still wrecked havoc on Tucson and the UA, both of which are struggling to stem the loss of jobs and funding. Despite these struggles, Tucson and the UA continue to be lively centers of arts and entertainment that attract upcoming and established performers and artists. These are the stories that have had the biggest impact this past year.

Festival of Books grows in second year

1

At a time when critics, authors and publishers are lamenting the decline of reading and the publishing industry, hosting a festival that celebrates books and reading seems to be an endeavor as foolhardy as holding a conversation in the middle of a hurricane. Yet the success of the second annual Tucson Festival of Books showed that there are people who still enjoy the written word. With an estimated 60 percent increase in attendance at 80,000 festival-goers this year, the Festival of Books is shaping up to rival the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, the only other major book festival in the Southwest.

The Fray concert profitable for ASUA and UApresents

What a difference half a year can make. After losing nearly $1 million from last spring’s Jay-Z concert, the incoming Associated Students for the University of Arizona senators and ASUA President Chris Nagata had two problems to confront: How can ASUA continue bringing in national acts while making a profit to pay off their remaining $560,000 debt? A team-up with UApresents and the modest cost of hosting The Fray led to a sold-out concert at Centennial Hall that can be called a modest success for ASUA and audiences alike.

De Anza Drive-In closes after nearly 60 years

‘Wicked’ coming to Centennial Hall

After numerous rumors of imminent closure within the past few years, this local institution finally screened its final movies in October.

Numerous factors contributed to its demise: higher national ticket prices, competition with newer and renovated movie theaters as well as with home theaters, lack of funding and profits.

But the main factor that probably led to De Anza’s closure was that Tucson moviegoers weren’t seeking the drivein experience anymore. In a last bit of good news, someone bought two of the screens in a last-minute deal.

Another team-up here, but this time it involves UApresents and Broadway in Tucson. What makes this collaboration surprising is not that they are able to bring “Wicked” to Tucson — still big news in itself — but that this Broadway musical will be taking place in the UA’s Centennial Hall. So come January students will not only have to fight for seats for their classes, but also for a chance to grab a seat to this Tony Award-winning Broadway production.

Formation of new School of Theatre, Film and Television approved

Celebrities stop by the UA, Tucson

As part of the UA’s ongoing Transformation Plan, a proposal was presented last fall to the UA administration to merge the Schools of Media Arts and Theatre Arts. At its March 11 meeting, the Arizona Board of Regents approved the merger, which becomes effective July 1, and left students of the two former schools with an uncertain future.

‘Sons of Tucson’ receives key to City of Tucson

It’s been evident for years that reading isn’t quite the ubiquitous pastime it once was. Though I think curling up with a book and a glass of decent wine constitutes a fulfilling evening, many of my friends and classmates haven’t read a book for pleasure in the last year. Tragic.

Wherever you place the blame — on technology or maybe our fast-paced lifestyle — it’s impossible to deny the fact that fewer people read for fun. But with books digitized and, well frankly, made cool again, we might see a few TV bums dive into a new novel.

So are the e-readers going to change the way we read? Definitely.

Reading won’t be the sit-down, intense activity that a paper book often requires. No more running back to the bookshelf for a new book or getting paper cuts trying to find where I left off.

With an e-reader, I could open my purse and skim through dozens of books in a few minutes. Through wireless bookstores, novels come to me rather than the other way around, perhaps encouraging impulsive buying. The process of acquiring books and casually reading is thus streamlined.

Sequels dominate this year’s video game scene

By Jason Krell Arizona Daily Wildcat Every year sees a slew of new video games, and every year some succeed and some flop. Lists and rankings are constructed of the best and worst, and while most tend to be similar, it’s always worth discussion. So, bearing that in mind, here are some of the best — and worst — games from this school year.

BEST SPORTS GAME: 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa

A football game was undoubtedly the best sports game this year, but not in the way you’d think. In the United States, we call it soccer. While“Madden NFL 10”is great, the recent“2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa”is far better. The gameplay is constant with few stoppages. With dozens of countries to choose from, citizens of our“melting pot”country get a chance to represent their heritage. It’s also easy to learn and fun to play, which is why FIFA takes the cup.

BEST ADVENTURE GAME: Assassin’s Creed 2

The first “Assassin’s Creed” brought players into a past they had never known. You got the chance to explore a fantastical reality in a setting many learned about in history.“Assassin’s Creed 2” did much of the same but went even further and did it better.

Fans of Dan Brown loved the way historical aspects were integrated into the compelling tale, and the twist ending left heads reeling. As far as the gameplay goes, the sequel solved the first game’s major problem: variety. As Ezio, you now have many weapons to chose from, different enemies to fight and even more locations to explore. While the replay value is low, it will always be a fun game to pick up when you want to exercise your inner assassin.

BEST SHOOTER: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

What can I say about this game?

To the chagrin of girlfriends — and maybe some boyfriends — everyone ate this shooter up. It singlehandedly presented the best opportunity for gamers to showcase their sharpshooting and trash talking skills. While artistically it may not have made much of an impact, the multiplayer was a smashing success and this installation of the franchise will be played even after its next hit.

MOST INNOVATIVE: Heavy Rain No game was as innovative or ambitious as “Heavy

Rain.”The story is centered on the Origami Killer and those investigating his serial murders. What makes this game so interesting is that its value lies wholly within the character development. The story unfolds like a movie and you will often find yourself getting caught up in the tale without realizing you are playing it. Be warned though: This game is not for those looking for something full of action, but it is paced well.

BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT: Final Fantasy XIII

This game was probably one of the most anticipated releases since “Final Fantasy XII” came out in 2006. The series is one of the most acclaimed and “XIII” looked to continue the legacy of revolutionary hits. When it was released in Japan, critics gave it near perfect scores and raved about its fast-paced combat system and eye-popping graphics. When it reached North America however, the reviews weren’t as kind. Many felt it was a great game, but it suffered from one fatal flaw: linear gameplay.

An RPG is meant to be open-ended and explorative — “Final Fantasy XIII” was not. Couple that with a tutorial segment that went on for more than 10 hours of gameplay and Square-Enix had many outraged Final Fantasy fans on its hands.

Devices too costly for experience

portable little device while in class.

No more lugging around those heavy — not to mention often useless and freaking expensive — textbooks for your classes. While you can already do this on a netbook with Adobe Reader and PDFs, e-readers have better battery life and are smaller, therefore easier to prop up against your binder or calculator. Moreover, it’s important to note that in an increasingly ecofriendly society these devices are more environmentally sustainable than their paper alternatives.

Publishing houses often have towers of material waiting to be destroyed — the fate of unprofitable books and unwanted manuscripts.

How far will this trend continue? As fast as technology changes, who’s to say my electronic book won’t be outdated in a few years? Will an e-reader eventually join the ranks of my Game Boy Advanced and portable DVD player?

Just look at how fast music devices evolve — from records to cassettes to CDs to MP3 players in a few short decades.

I like technology too, don’t get me wrong.

Useful, fun and undeniably full of neat features, e-readers definitely have their attractive qualities. But I’m a starving college student not quite ready to shell out hundreds of dollars for one just yet. As a bibliophile, I doubt a Nook, Kindle or even an iPad is going to seriously change the amount I read. I’ll wait until the e-readers grow out of their infancy.

In the meantime, I’ll be sure to grab an actual book.

Sean Miller’s first year

Stability finally yielded some traction to the Arizona men’s basketball program.

Sean Miller’s first year in Tucson brought eight players in a 12-month period. Two seasons of interim coaches and uncertainty finally came to an end when the ex-Xavier coach inked a five-year deal worth $2 million annually.

While Miller never set high expectations from the get-go — but rather, reiterated the realistic odds at missing the NCAA Tournament — certainly his second year at the helm will become the first benchmark of success.

The Streak is over

It lasted only a quarter century.

It was the second-longest streak in NCAA men’s basketball history. The Arizona Wildcats didn’t miss the NCAA Tournament for 25 years, all but two years of which came under the leadership of Hall of Fame head coach Lute Olson.

With first-year head coach Sean Miller asked to rebuild a team suffering from a lack of recruiting over two previous tumultuous seasons, the quest to reach the tournament ended with a Pacific 10 Conference Tournament loss to UCLA. With five freshmen forced to play significant roles, the Wildcats went through a rollercoaster of a year, winning in last-minute buzzer beaters and losing in equally painful ways.

The final game put Arizona’s record at 16-15 and 10-8 in the conference, etching Olson’s legacy in cement and marking the beginning of the Miller era.

Byrne replaces Livengood as AD

In a surprising move, 16-year Arizona athletic director Jim Livengood skipped town, taking control of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas’ athletic department.

UA President Robert Shelton announced during a Dec. 17, 2009 press conference that associate athletic director Kathleen “Rocky” LaRose would move into the vacant position until a replacement was found, keying on keeping up with Vision Arizona, the facilities expansion project.

That replacement came in the form of 38-year-old ASU graduate Greg Byrne, who held the athletic director position at Mississippi State University and took the reins in May 2010.

GameDay Weekend

For at least one day the Arizona football team was at the center of the college football world. With Old Main in the backdrop, hundreds of UA students packed the UA Mall starting as early as Friday night while ESPN did its thing on stage. GameDay anchor Lee Corso put on the Oregon Duck head and although he was right, the Wildcats and the then-No. 11 Ducks duked it out for one of the most exciting games of the season. Oregon won 44-41 in double overtime.

Holiday Bowl disappointment

The stage was set for the Wildcats: a second-place finish in the Pacific 10 Conference and a second straight bowl appearance for an up-and-coming team that was starting to catch national attention. That is until they ran into Ndamukong Suh and a Nebraska defense that suddenly resembled the 1985 Chicago Bears. Arizona couldn’t get anything going on either side of the ball and left a bad taste at the end of an otherwise impressive season.

Freshmen play key role in new era

Arizona basketball head coach Sean Miller’s first season was an obvious rebuilding stage in the program, and with a rebuilding stage comes a youth movement. Miller and his coaching staff signed five strong recruits: Derrick Williams, Kevin Parrom, Momo Jones, Solomon Hill and Kyryl Natyazhko. The freshmen brought fans electrifying dunks, buzzer beaters and “No Easy Buckets.”Though this freshman class will carry the burden of not making the tournament for the first time in 25 years, they showed signs that Arizona could have something special for the future. Led by Pac-10 Freshman of the Year Williams, this class could bring future success that will make Arizona fans forget the end of the streak.

A dejected Delashaun Dean walks off the field at the Holiday Bowl on Dec. 30, 2009, in San Diego. The wide receiver and the rest of the Wildcats were defeated 33-0 at the hands of the Nebraska Cornhuskers.

No. 1: Wise’s Senior Day

he wasn’t as calm as he appeared while shooting them. “I wish I could tell you I got ice water going through my veins,�

Fogg said. “But man I was shaking especially with this being Nic (Wise’s) last game at home.� — Vincent Balistreri

No. 3: Crowd rushes field early For all intents and purposes, Nov. 21, 2009, was a banner day for Arizona football — ESPN College GameDay, a nationally broadcasted primetime game on ABC, and a backand-forth thriller on the field that epitomized the 2009 Pacific 10 Conference season.

There were a few culprits in this otherwise clean cast — the UA fans. The Zona Zoo poured onto the field with just over a minute left in the game ready to rush the field and celebrate a 31-24 victory, only Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli tied the game with a few seconds left.

Then after Oregon won in double overtime, Arizona fans threw debris onto the field and injured an Oregon cheerleader. — Tim Kosch

Dominique Giovanni Wise sent McKale Center into one last frenzy, one last buzzer beater and one last curtain call to a most fitting ending that Hollywood writers couldn’t even script.

The 14,591 fans in capacity saw one of the most breathtaking games in UA basketball history — a 86-84 buzzer-beater win in doubleovertime against the USC Trojans at the expense of ex-UA interim coach Kevin O’Neill. “There isn’t another college player in history that’s been through what I’ve been through,� Wise said.“It’s hard to hold it in. It’s a great feeling today.� — Bryan Roy

Alan Walsh/Arizona Daily Wildcat

No. 4: Freak endings in losses to Washington, California

After taking the Wildcats on his shoulders in a 37-32 victory against Oregon State in his first game as a starter, Nick Foles was impressive again the next week against Washington throwing for 384 yards and a touchdown. The rise to prominence came to a halt with 2:37 left in the fourth quarter. Up 33-28, Foles threw to an open Delashaun Dean on a quick seam. The ball was thrown low and behind Dean, however, and it bounced off of his foot and into the hands of Washington linebacker Mason Foster, who then returned it 37 yards for a game-winning touchdown. Then a few weeks later Foles tried to lead a comeback against California when his third down pass late in the fourth quarter was tipped at the line. Foles then caught the tip, rolled to his right, and hit Dean for a first down. Only it’s illegal to throw two forward passes in one play. The Wildcats could never recover and lost 24-16. — Tim Kosch

No. 5: Wise’s back-to-back game winners Alan Walsh/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Sophomore guard Kyle Fogg attempts his third free throw against USC on March 6 in McKale Center. Fogg’s free throws sent the game into overtime.

No. 2: Fogg hits three clutch free throws With the Arizona basketball team down 69-66 against USC in McKale Center’s final game of the season, only a few seconds remained with sophomore guard Kyle Fogg attempting a game-tying three-pointer. Fogg missed, but before the Trojans could celebrate a referee’s whistle blew, rewarding Fogg three foul shots to send the game to overtime. Fogg stepped to the free throw line for the biggest shots of his life and calmly knocked them down to send the game into overtime to set up Nic Wise’s heroics. After the game Fogg admitted

Senior leaders are supposed to hit game-winners. Men’s basketball guard Nic Wise hit two in a row.

Down 82-80 to Lipscomb University on Dec. 21, 2009, Arizona grabbed a rebound off a missed free throw. The clock ticking down, guard Kyle Fogg passed to a sprinting Wise and own the run, he released a 3-pointer just as the buzzer sounded.

The result — an 83-82 overtime victory.

Two days later against North Carolina State University, Wise did it again, taking the ball the length of the court with the score tied at 74. His running floater lifted the Wildcats to yet another victory in McKale.

MOMENTS

Pac-10 Freshman of the Year Whyte’s run rounds out top 10

continued from page A11

No. 6: Momo’s Stanford buzzer beater The veterans watched it from the bench.

The freshmen did it.

While Nic Wise and Jamelle Horne were absent from a downto-the-wire 69-69 game at Stanford, UA coach Sean Miller opted to call upon his future and close out a Pacific 10 Conference road game.

Freshmen Derrick Williams and Momo Jones led the Wildcats down the stretch, capped off by a Jones’ pull-up buzzer-beater in transition to stun the Cardinal. The shot brought Arizona more than just a tally in the win column, but a vote of confidence in Miller’s system. At that point, maturity became standard from the leaders of the freshman class.

— Bryan Roy

No. 7: Zendejas’ gamewinner against ASU It was sweet revenge for UA kicker Alex Zendejas. The

sophomore had gone through some growing pains all year long. But after an incredible special teams effort by Mike Turner, Zendejas was given the opportunity to knock in the game winner as time expired against archrival ASU. The 32-yarder gave the Wildcats their second straight victory against the Sun Devils and set up a season finale against USC for second place in the Pacific 10 Conference.

— Tim Kosch

No. 8: ‘No Easy Buckets’ In a hostile Wells Fargo Arena on Jan. 23, the Arizona men’s basketball team — with the score at 47-37 and with 8:35 on the game clock — was about to blow the game against the ASU Sun Devils wide open.

Slipping behind the Arizona defense, ASU guard Ty Abbott had a straight shot to the basket — or so he thought.

Coming from behind, Arizona forward Kevin Parrom fouled Abbott across the arms, but

his swipe also ripped through Abbott’s face.

Abbott got in Parrom’s face, but Parrom simply smiled back before teammates pulled the pair apart. The Wildcats went on to win 77-58 and later that evening, Parrom Tweeted the now-infamous “No Easy Buckets” post on Twitter.

— Kevin Zimmerman

No. 9: Men’s back-toback individual national championships No one knew what to expect from senior Clark Burckle and sophomore Cory Chitwood going into their NCAA events.

Just days earlier both of them had been hit hard by the norovirus and they were in the hospital hooked up to IVs. The one-day postponement of the NCAAs gave them extra time to get healthy, and it worked. Within just minutes of each other the two Kentucky natives who grew up competing against each other brought the UA men their only two NCAA individual championships of the meet.

— Derek Lawrence

No. 10: Women’s basketball sets single game scoring record

Alan Walsh/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Kevin Parrom backs down Ty Abbott in Arizona’s 77-58 win over ASU on Jan. 23 in Tempe. The incident sparked Parrom’s infamous “No Easy Buckets” tweet.

With the Pacific 10 Conference Freshmen of the Year Davellyn Whyte scoring an Arizona record-setting 39 points, the game was destined to be a shootout. The Arizona women’s basketball team defeated the Oregon Ducks 119-112 on Jan. 16 in McKale Center in the highest scoring NCAA women’s basketball game in history.

At game’s end, a total of 231 points were tallied off of 153 shot attempts.

Pac-10 Player of the Year Ify Ibekwe took it upon herself to procure a double-double with 32 points and 14 boards. Ibekwe and her Wildcats were able to lead the charge and keep the momentum from start to finish.

At the start of the season, Ricky Elmore was known as the defensive end that played opposite of Brooks Reed, but by the end he was a force that everyone in the Pac-10 knew about.

His 10.5 sacks were enough to lead the conference. He started all 13 games and emerged as one of the leaders of the unit. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tim Kosch

Nick Foles, Football

Nick Folesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; path to becoming a starter has been well documented, but his success despite the circumstances is nothing short of impressive. Foles was thrown into the fire after a devastating loss to Alan Walsh/Arizona Daily Wildcat IIowa owa and with the season already in a state of flux. Add in the seasonllong ong injury to Rob Gronkowski, the nagging injuries to running backs Nic Grigsby and Keola Antolin and the wave of injuries to the offensive line, and you have a first-time starter trying to command a sinking ship. But it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter. Foles completed 63.6 percent of his passes and was sacked just 11 times. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tim Kosch

Cory Chitwood, Swim

The 2008-09 season was a tough one for Cory Chitwood.

A shoulder injury forced him h im to miss the season and redshirt. During the NCAAs he painfully watched the 200-yard backstroke, just wanting to be able to race.

But he came back this season stronger than ever. Chitwood fought off tough competition Mike Ignatov/Arizona Daily Wildcat and an even tougher virus to become the 200y backstroke national champion. He set a pool record at the event. Thanks to that great performance, Chitwood will be looked to as a leader for next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s young team. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Derek Lawrence

Kenzie Fowler, Softball

The long-anticipated arrival of Tucson pitcher Kenzie Fowler wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t over hyped. The freshman has shown few problems in adjusting to pitching at tthe he collegiate level, racking up honors such as the Louisville L ouisville Slugger/NFCA Division I National Player of the Week, the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Week for the week of April 12-18 and one of 25 finalists for the 2010 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award.

The 2009 Gatorade National Player of the Year in high school pitched a perfect game in five innings against Oregon State on April 25 and has thrown three no-hitters so far this season.

Fowler is 31-6 through May 12, racking up 282 strikeouts and only giving up 104 hits through 214 1/3 innings pitched. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nicole Dimtsios

The junior setter for the Arizona volleyball team has been a mark of consistency in her three years as a Wildcat.

Weber W eber was named the 2009 captain of the Arizona volleyball team, playing in 110 sets in the 2009 season. The Indanapolis, Ind., native has never missed a set in her collegiate carrer, playing in 183 sets in the past two seasons.

She ranked in the top 50 in assists per set with an average of 10.7, a number that also led the Arizona team in 2009.

Weber and teammate Whitney Dosty were the two Wildcats of 24 players selected to lead its U.S. Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National A2 Program for 2010. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nicole Dimtsios at

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let the 33-0 drubbing at the hands of Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl spoil what was an incredible season for Arizona football.

For the first time in recent memory, Arizona was a relevant national team, constantly taking part in some of the most interesting games in all of college football and becoming a fixture in the national top-25, finishing second in the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best conference.

The Wildcats even had the chance to control their own destiny toward conference title in the last three games of the season. In addition to that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and perhaps most importantly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Arizona football was the sport on campus.

She S he had been an All-American and team national Gordon Bates/Arizona Daily Wildcat cchampion. hampion. But in her final year as a Wildcat, she set her sights on finally winning an individual national championship in the 100-yard breaststroke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been wanting to do it for so long. It has really tested my patience,â&#x20AC;? Chandler said.

All of her hard work paid off when she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just win the race, but also set an NCAA record in the event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a complete shock,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whole team just flooded the pool deck, and they had tears in their eyes.

As one of the most highly touted players in Arizona womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball history, junior and Pacific 10 Conference Player of the Year, Ify Ibekwe managed to make serious headlines this past season. Along with her abilities in the low post and mid-range shooting that made opposing defenses quiver, Ibekwe was a beacon of leadership for her team.

After a 17-foot jumper with 2:20 remaining in the first half of the home win against University of Washington, Ibekwe became one of 16 players in Arizona womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball history to record 1,000 points in her career.

Along with her point totals, Ibekwe will enter her senior year with a career total of 880 rebounds, only 41 shy of the Arizona record. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dan Kohler

Before the basketball season began, Arizona freshman forward Derrick Williams was supposed to be raw and athletic â&#x20AC;&#x201D; something to look forward to for tthe he future. But just three games into the season in a 661-65 1-65 loss to Wisconsin on Nov. 23, 2009, Williams had a coming out party, scoring 25 points and getting to the free throw line 21 times. Williams rode the highscoring performance to a Pacific 10 Conference Freshman of the Year trophy and the Sporting News NCAA All-Freshman first team. Arizona fans can expect a super sophomore season as Williams works himself into an NBA draft pick next season. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Vincent Balistreri

The goal from the beginning of the season for the swim and dive team was to win a national championship.

While the teams fell just short, both the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams had strong seasons. The women were a top-5 program all season and fell just 23 points shy of winning the national championship. Meanwhile the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team went undefeated during the dual meet season and even reached the No. 1 spot in the rankings. It took the norovirus to take them down and they still battled through that to finish third at the NCAAs.

The freshman right-hander out of Huntington Beach, Calif., set the tone for the youthful Arizona baseball team from the moment he stepped onto the mound. Heyer pitched his way into Arizona record books after firing a 13-strikeout performance in his collegiate debut. With the performance, Heyer showed his team, which w hich included 17 freshmen, that age is only a number. Since his debut, Heyer has been nearly flawless.

His H is 2.22 ERA (third in Pac-10), 6-1 record and 89 strikeouts (third in Pac-10) are almost unheard of for a freshman, but come as no surprise due to his second-to-none work ethic and uber-competitve nature. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mike Schmitz

Although it made its 21st consecutive appearance in the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College World Series in 2009, the Arizona softball team made a quick exit from Oklahoma City, Okla., after dropping the first two games to Florida and Alabama.

But the 2010 Wildcats have sustained a top-5 national ranking throughout the entire season. With the addition of freshman ace Kenzie Fowler to the Wildcatsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; already seasoned batting order, Arizona passed the 40-win mark with two weekends left in Pacific 10 Conference play.

With 23 newcomers and 17 freshmen, the No. 22 Arizona baseball team came into the season with a bright future.

The future came quicker than expected though when the Wildcats rattled off a 15game winning streak early in the year and were propelled into the national spotlight.

Led by freshman ace Kurt Heyer on the mound and sophomores Steve Selsky and Jett Bandy at the plate, Arizona looks bound for postseason play after enduring what head coach Andy Lopez called a â&#x20AC;&#x153;nightmareâ&#x20AC;?2009 season.

With wins this year over top programs like California State University, Fullerton and rival ASU, the Wildcats will be a dangerous playoff team. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Michael Fitzsimmons

“One of the top 10 jobs a student can have”

-Arizona Daily Wildcat

UA quarterback Nick Foles throws deep in Arizona’s game against Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl on Dec. 30, 2009 at Qualcomm Stadium. Although the Wildcats were defeated 33-0, Foles took the starting job from Matt Scott during the regular season.

The emergence of Nick Foles

The biggest storyline entering the 2009 season was the quarterback competition between Nick Foles and Matt Scott. Scott, a highly touted recruit who was expected to take the baton from Willie Tuitama, won the battle at first but struggled in his three starts. Enter Nick Foles.

The transfer from Michigan State won his first start at Oregon State and the rest was history. He finished the season with 19 touchdowns and a quarterback rating of 125.56.

Norovirus halts swim team

The men’s swim had been dominating all season long and they looked to be the frontrunner for the national championship. Then they were taken down for the first time all season by the norovirus just two days before the NCAAs were set to begin. Nine of the 18 men’s swimmers were hospitalized by the virus. Despite the long odds facing them, the Wildcats rallied together to produce two individual national championships and place third overall as a team. “I couldn’t be more proud of this team,” said coach Frank Busch. “This is one of the greatest performances in the history of this program.”

When four-star tight end high school prospect Rob Gronkowski committed to Arizona it was considered a major victory for Mike Stoops and the UA football program. After just his sophomore year he was already the Wildcats’ career leader in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns for a tight end. Gronkowski’s junior year was supposed to be a finishing touch on a prolific career, but it didn’t go quite as planned.

Gronkowski injured his back in the offseason and never played a down in 2009. He decided to declare for the NFL Draft anyway and was chosen by the New England Patriots in the second round.

Soccer coach leaves

After eight seasons at the helm of Arizona women’s soccer, former head coach Dan Tobias stepped down on October 12, 2009, amidst the departure of nine players from the program.

“It is with great sadness that for personal reasons I am stepping down from the head coach position,”Tobias said.

The nine departures took place between the 2008-09 season.

Tobias earned the Pac-10 Coach of the Year award in addition to leading the Wildcats to a 2004 conference championship.

After the success of his first two seasons, however, Tobais’ record at Arizona fell to 26-43-3.
