By Abragail Kappel ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The mystery of whether there is life on Mars is getting closer to being solved. “It’s one of these really fundamental questions. You know you grew up reading science fiction about it,” said Leslie P. Tolbert, UA vice president of research. “The point is, there are real questions to ask about where does life come from as well as where does the universe come from.” Alfred McEwen, UA professor of planetary sciences, and a UA

team will be building a color stereo camera for an orbiter scheduled to launch in January 2016. “(McEwen) is the perfect person to lead a project like this,” Tolbert said. “He is somebody that has a really stellar – that was a pun – really stellar track record.” NASA is funding the camera while European Space Agency will be producing the telescope. The purpose of this mission is to study trace gases on Mars in detail with sensitive instruments to understand as much as possible about these gases being released on Mars. “(The project) builds on the last

Mars mission, which looked for water on Mars,” Tolbert said. “Carbonbased life needs water, and so they found evidence for water and made everybody very excited.” ShaneByrne,assistantprofessorfor the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, estimates the camera will begin returning its first images in 2016. Once the originating point of the gases is found, the camera will take 3-D topographical pictures. “We take a picture looking slightly forward. Once we pass the target, we swivel the camera 180 degrees and we take a picture slightly backwards, and we can put those two pictures together with those two view points to make a three-dimensional map,” Byrne said. “We look at the same patch of surface from two different directions. We can figure out the height of mountains and the depths of craters and

things like that.” By taking topographical pictures, the camera will be able to tell how the methane is being released. “Something is releasing methane into the atmosphere,” McEwen said. “It could be some active geological process, or even biological.” Methane is one of the primary gases released by natural biological processes and could be an indication of life. “A couple of people have discovered methane in the Martian atmosphere from ground-based telescopes and from other space crafts,” Byrne said. “That’s really interesting because methane should be destroyed really quickly there, so we wouldn’t expect it to hang around for very long, so something is producing it right now.

Renting dos and don’ts

Easy ways to avoid scams, fines and deadbeat roommates By Brenna Goth ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Apartment living presents its own challenges. Students living off-campus for the first time may be unfamiliar with leases, landlords and paying monthly rent. Simple advice can help prevent problems down the road.

Leases

The number one mistake students make is not understanding their lease, according to Lilian Alelunas, property manager for the student apartment complex, College Place. “They don’t realize when they sign it what they’re signing,” Alelunas said. “Once it’s signed, you’re committed. It’s a legal, binding contract.” It can be difficult to nullify a

lease once it’s signed, but there are options. Some apartments allow breaking the lease for a fee. Other alternatives include trying to sublease which involves leasing your apartment to another person. The Associated Students of the University of Arizona funds a service on campus that offers free legal advice for students who may need to break their lease for any reason.

The apartment

Note all of the damages in your apartment as soon as you move in. “Whenever you move in, document every little thing that’s wrong with it,” said anthropology senior Iran Andrade, the student lead for UA Off-Campus Housing. Many apartments provide forms at move-in to note damages. If not, RENT, page 3

Tucson officials reject rental tax By Alexander Vega ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT UA students and Tucsonans will not have to pay an additional rental tax after elections this fall. The City of Tucson Core Tax and Permanent Override ReviewCommittee voted down a proposed 2 percent residential rental tax Thursday afternoon. The tax was on track for suggestion to the mayor and City Council at the committee’s last meeting on Aug. 20, but the committee decided to reconsider the proposal. While a rental tax isn’t directly applied to those who are renting but rather their landlords, the

renters would still likely make up the 2 percent difference. Around 30 concerned renters demonstrated their disapproval outside Tucson Fire Department headquarters, where the committee met before the meeting. Huddled in rain, the renters brought signs voicing their dissent toward the rental tax. “We needed to make our point to the committee before they decided on the tax,” said Barb Dolan, Arizona Multihousing Association government-affairs liaison. Dolan presented on behalf of the AMA to the committee before they considered the final taxing suggestions.

COMING MONDAY

System overload

The committee decided not to let the outcome of the fall vote on the Core Services Tax, Proposition 400, affect the vote on the rental tax.. The rental tax was proposed to help offset the Tucson City budget by raising $10 million. Proposition 400 was proposed to raise $11 million dollars for the deficit. The council first voted to approve the rental tax even if Proposition 400 passed, but the motion was defeated. On the second vote to pass the rental tax if Proposition 400 were to fail, the council stood firm and voted against it. “We would be essentially influencing the results of the elec-

Daily Wildcat investigates the high number of administration positions on campus during budget crisis

tion passing the core tax,” said Committee Member John Kromko. The other hot topic deliberated was proposed cuts and fare hikes for the Sun Tran. The city already enacted a fare increase in 2009 that resulted in a ridership loss. The committee voted to not raise fares in order to increase revenue. They also decided against suggesting budget cuts for transit overall. Also, the committee voted to suggest a sales tax on advertising to raise an additional $1 million. The committee will finalize their suggestion on Monday at 3 p.m. at the Fire Central in downtown Tucson.

Imagine your degree program not having enough classes to accommodate you. That was the UA English and creative writing departments’ problem last spring. They created more classes for this semester to accommodate each student. Alyssa Spungen, a creative writing junior, experienced difficulty while trying to enroll in certain English classes. “When I registered for my classes last spring, I was not able to get any core classes I needed except for junior seminar,” Spungen said. She became so frustrated that she changed to a completely new major — philosophy. Spungen was upset because she only had access to upper division English classes, as opposed to the classes she was interested in. “I wasn’t that upset about taking upper division electives, because I’m sure they are all interesting. However, I would have felt more confident with a more rounded schedule this year, being a junior,” Spungen said. Many were taken aback at the predicament that the departments were faced with. “I didn’t realize how popular of a major creative writing was,” UA professor Jason B. Brown said. His surprise continued upon learning of the new classes that were added; courses such as script writing replaced more traditional English courses. “I feel like some of the substitute classes offered are a little random,” Brown said. “There are so many students who want to take higher English classes, but there is just simply not enough room. I have students who are stealing chairs from other classrooms just so they can be in my class.” Brown is also a UA academic advisor and sees how, despite the squeeze, the new class setup has some benefits to the department and the university overall. “The university is struggling a great deal financially, so there are limited classes. However, it forces students to enroll in classes at a much earlier date instead of waiting until the last minute,” Brown said. “It is a much more organized system.” Some of the younger students agree with Brown that the organization of the system as a whole is good idea. Carina Enriquez, a creative writing freshman, had many of the same troubles as Spungen despite her recent arrival but remains positive about the future. ”I think this way it will help freshman take the basic major classes, then work their way up to the harder division classes,” Enriquez said. Contrarily, older students are frustrated to use a new system that changes their graduation plans. “A lot of students just want to be able to graduate in four years, and this new system is holding us back,” Spungen said. The UA is undergoing many changes due to an increased freshman population and budget cuts, and these changes are making situations like those within the English and creative writing departments even more common.

undeclared sophomore What’s your major? I’m undecided but kind of thinking about a science or music, not sure. Interesting … so you know tonight, it’s about to be Thursday night … Yes, it is. You know what that means … I don’t know. I’m a transfer student so I haven’t been on campus much. Jersey Shore, new episode tonight. Please tell me you are a fan? I will be a fan when I watch it for the first time tonight, I guess. That’s right. 10 p.m. you definitely need to check in. OK, well, since you are not a Jersey Shore fan, have you had any crazy dreams recently? I know I have, but I can’t remember. Well, have you seen Inception? Yes, I just watched it last week. What two worlds would you jump back and forth from if you could be like Leonardo DiCaprio and all that? Like the ones in the movie or just any worlds? Any worlds, your own worlds, worlds you can think of, just what two worlds would you jump in between? Well two dreams that I have all the time. Number one, where I, like, go underwater and can breathe and stay underwater. That’s actually one of my favorite ones and then my other one is where I can fly. So, I guess between those two. So, being able to hold your breath and being able to fly are your perfect dream worlds to jump back and forth from? Well, breathe underwater. Oh gotcha, gotcha. On a different note … what is some advice you would give to a freshmen as just something not to do in college? Don’t just sit in your dorm and watch TV all day. There are so many clubs — like the club fair was out here yesterday and there literally were hundreds of tents, just not even enough time for all the stuff that I would want to do. That really is great advice. Where did you transfer? Hope College in Southern Michigan. You didn’t like it there? Nah, it was too small. Are you excited for the Wildcat football games? Yeah, very excited. My friend was trying to convince me to join the Zona Zoo. Oh, you have to join the Zona Zoo. You need to get your pass right away. I haven’t yet, when is the first game? Sept. 11. What are you going to do tonight at 10 p.m.? Watch Jersey Shore! And what are you going to do right now when you get home? Um, probably practice sax. Well, the answer I was looking for was purchase your Zona Zoo pass from ZonaZoo.com (www. arizonawildcats.com/ot/ zona-zoo.html). I will do that too. — Caroline Nachazel

Boy blistered after licking used condom, grandmother says ATLANTA — A Georgia woman said a weekend outing turned into a horrifying experience when her young grandson developed blisters after he found a used condom in their hotel room and put it in his mouth, myFOXdfw.com reported. According to Carmen Jones, the incident happened on Aug. 1 at the Wyndham Gardens hotel in downtown Atlanta, where she had taken the boy and his cousin

for a weekend of family fun. Jones said at first glance, room 329 looked perfectly clean, except that there was no soap and no towels. The next morning, Jones said, she awoke to a horrifying scene. “When I looked at my grandson, he had a used condom all down his throat — his tongue in it and everything. And there was semen in the condom,” she said. Jones immediately took the con-

dom out of the boy’s mouth and called hotel management, she said. Days later the child developed a fever, Jones said. “That’s when I had seen the open blisters inside of his mouth, inside of the bottom lip, all on his tongue,” Jones said. The boy is being tested for STDs and HIV but Jones’ attorney said the family is awaiting the results before deciding how to proceed. — The Associated Press

RENT continued from page 1

New tenants have trouble operating appliances

take the time to create one. “If your apartment doesn’t require it, definitely do it,” said Ryan Soderquist, assistant manager for Campus Crossing University Heights. “That way there’s a record.” Natural resources sophomore Zach Smalls is renting his first apartment and agreed that the step is necessary in preventing future fines from the apartment complex. “That’s a good thing to do just in case,” Smalls said. “We went and looked at everything major.” Taking pictures or video is a good way to prove exactly how your apartment appeared before moving in.

Learn to live on your own

Some landlords find that students living on their own for the first time may lack basic household knowledge. “The biggest thing that we find is the appliances,” said Sean Hughes, assistant manager for The Seasons student apartment complex. “They don’t know how to run their own washer and dryer or dishwasher.” Learn how to use apartment appliances and troubleshoot before complaining. “A lot of time residents won’t fix

• break the rules and regulations.

• document damages. • be afraid to complain. • use Off-Campus Housing and free legal advice. • learn how to use your appliances their own light bulbs,” Soderquist said. “A lot of it comes down to being on your own for the first time.”

Landlords

Mutual respect is the key to maintaining a successful relationship. Knowing the rules of an apartment complex helps prevent conflict. “(Students) don’t read through rules and regulations,” Alelunas said. “We don’t like fining you.” Landlords are paid to address the concerns of residents, so don’t be afraid to bring up any issues. “As far as landlord-tenant relationships go, make sure you’re upfront with them about things,”

• let your roommate forget to pay rent. • fill out a maintenance request for things you can easily do yourself. Hughes said. Alelunas agreed it’s important to make issues known. “Learn to speak up,” Alelunas said. “If you do have a problem, don’t be afraid to complain.” Smalls said he has a plan to take care of possible problems. “I’ve met (my landlord) once,” Smalls said. “We’d send an email to the landlord with what’s wrong or find maintenance (staff).” When complaining, be sure to be polite and realize that the landlord may have more urgent priorities. “A lot of times people come in with bad attitudes, and maintenance won’t like you as much,” Soderquist said.

Rent

Pay your rent on time. Many apartments have a “grace period” but then charge residents late fees. “We have to deal with that every month,” Soderquist said. Many student apartment complexes offer individual leases for each resident. For those sharing a lease with a roommate, be sure to have a payment system. “We just each write our own checks and turn it in,” Smalls said of his method. “(For utilities), we split it in two.” Be sure that each roommate pays his or her share on time. Alelunas admits that it can be detrimental to you if your roommates do not pay their shares. “Even if you pay on time, it hurts your payment history,” said Alelunas.

Students desperate for units continued from page 1 With these cuts, students who are having a harder time paying for classes and graduating on time are willing to do whatever it takes to make the grade. “Students will go to any extreme to get into these classes,” said Liz Warren-Pederson, the manager of marketing communications at the Eller College of Management. “As a university, we are very lucky to have some dedicated students who will go to a whole new level just to get into one class.” Warren-Pederson explained that some students are not happy with the changes, so they ended up changing their majors. “I think it shows us something that all of the higher up Englishcreative writing (students) are frustrated, but there is nothing we as professors can do,” WarrenPederson said. “It saddens me that students really desire to take a certain class, but they can’t, and there is nothing I can do.”

Hughes agreed that a good attitude goes a long way. “There’re other things that we have to do,” Hughes said. “You just need to be patient.” UA Off-Campus Housing offers a housing guide with the proper steps to make a complaint and sample letters. “If it’s not fixed, go up to ASUA and see what the procedures are,” Andrade said.

“If biological, it would, of course, be the great prize,” McEwen said. “Evidence of life on Mars either current or past … that would be a very big discovery.” The mission will take place in Boulder, Colo. The camera will be assembled there, but will be op-

erated from Tucson in the Sonett Space Sciences building, according to McEwen and Byrne. “The basis for carbon-based life, that’s the kind of thing that would be really exciting to see,” Tolbert said. “If there is, that gives us one view of how life evolved. If there

isn’t, it makes us think more specifically about what were the specific conditions on the Earth as the Earth started to cool that allowed life to develop here, these organic molecules to develop here and not elsewhere.” The project is the latest in a long

line of high-profile, Mars-related UA research projects. “This (project) is just another example of this huge success that our folks in space sciences, which is lunar and planetary and astronomy, have,” Tolbert said. “This is really, really, really exciting.”

Professors should be given a syllabus, too Kristina Bui ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

y now, you have read the syllabi for all of your classes, gone over your professors’ expectations and the consequences of failing to meet those expectations. But you have not considered the standards by which you can hold your instructors accountable. Learning is a trade-off. Professors should expect their students to arrive prepared and eager to learn. But you, as a student, should also expect your professors to arrive eager to teach. The miserably warm walk to class, the wandering around the Harvill building in search of the most elusive classroom ever, the all-nighters you pull — every crap thing you do for class should feel worth it when your instructor begins to speak. If it doesn’t, your instructors are failing you. The best teachers talk about their subjects with a reverence generally reserved for religious experiences. It’s as if they believe what they’re teaching will actually make a difference. As if you will go home and you won’t forget everything they said. And you won’t, if they really do have that much faith in their work. The worst teachers drone on because they have to. You’re a set of ears to them, not a student. They don’t want to be there, and you don’t want to be there either. To be fair, professors see so many faces that you do need to put in some effort. If you never tell them your name, they won’t learn it. But a good professor will ask you what your name is. The best thing an educator can do is show that they give a damn. They won’t just stand there and use the same notes they used eight semesters ago. They won’t just lecture for an hour straight. They won’t assign an essay and expect their lecture regurgitated in essay form. No one gains anything from that. A good professor will challenge you to think beyond the bulleted points in a PowerPoint presentation. They will ask you questions during class and force you to examine everything you’ve learned when they ask you to write a paper. When they return an essay, there will be more than a letter at the top and a vague comment about sentence structure at the bottom. They should want you to be as excited about their subject as they are, to be critical and analytical, to think on your own. Forget rankings and end-of-semester course evaluations. Those things are important, but nowhere near thoughtful enough. Narrow it down to an individual basis: you and the professor. Is your professor enthusiastic? Engaging? Commanding? Does he or she make you want to know more? Is he or she prepared to not only answer your questions, but help you answer them on your own? If not, your instructors are failing you. Maybe it’s a little idealistic to suggest that you be excited to wake up for an 8 a.m. chemistry lab. But once you get there, you should want to be there. And if you don’t, is it because you genuinely do not feel like you are connecting with your professor? Drop the class or switch to a section taught by another instructor. You don’t want to be there, and you don’t need to be. But, more productively, try being a better student first. Ask questions during class. Introduce yourself when you raise your hand, even if they don’t ask what your name is. Do more than just echo your notes when you write your papers. If it affects your score negatively, ask why. Incite discussion. If they won’t do it, you should try to. An instructor-student relationship goes both ways. In the same way that they expect the best from you, you should expect the best from them. But sometimes you have to ask for it.

MAILBAG Defense of AIMS scholarship ignored pertinent points

For all its efforts, Arizona Students’ Association chair Elma Delic’s letter in yesterday’s Wildcat fails to address any of the major concerns facing the AIMS scholarship and, by extension, the students of Arizona’s universities. In describing the AIMS scholarship as “financial assistance,” Ms. Delic elides the distinction between need-based and merit-based financial aid. Perhaps this is because she knows that the scholarship — even with ASA’s proposed reforms — does not take into account financial need. Further, because wealthier students tend to outperform poorer students, the scholarship ends up giving full-ride scholarships to those who need them least. Nor are recipients of the scholarship particularly meritorious. Because the award is granted to those with a 3.50 GPA or higher, it gives students a strong

incentive to choose easy classes over more challenging ones. It’s also hard to believe that simply taking the SAT or ACT tests should be a qualification for a full-ride scholarship, as Ms. Delic asserts. Low award requirements combined with an indifference to financial need mean the scholarship muddles the important goals of accessibility and merit, at a cost to students, universities and the state. Ms. Delic informs readers the ASA plan called for “getting data to show the type of financial need that students have by having recipients fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).” This would do nothing to address the underlying problems with the AIMS test itself and would only serve to shunt off poorer students to the federal government — making the AIMS scholarship an even bigger honey pot for the well-to-do and even less necessary than it already is. Minority students

for whom accessibility is a pressing concern consistently perform worse than their white counterparts on the test, and these same students also tend to be the ones most deserving of financial aid. There is only so much financial aid money to go around. If the program is not changed, the cost of the AIMS scholarship will continue to increase. Tuition will have to increase at the current or an even more rapid rate because universities must account for the cost of unnecessary programs like the AIMS scholarship. We all agree that financial aid should be distributed in order to help genuinely deserving students and attract the best and brightest to Arizona’s universities. The AIMS scholarship fulfills neither of these missions, and, unfortunately, Delic and the ASA seem uninterested in exploring new options. — Anna Swenson and Vishal Ganesan editors, The Desert Lamp www.desertlamp.com

Trending up: Local incumbents: Despite rampant voter dissatisfaction and prevalent anti-incumbent sentiments throughout the nation, local politicians escaped mostly unscathed in Tuesday’s primary elections.

American Airlines: The Federal Aviation Administration “suggested” a $24.2 million civic penalty for the airline as penance for allowing thousands of planes with potentially faulty landing gear to fly in defiance of federal regulations in 2008. That’s all well and good, but who do I talk to about those lines? Am I right?

Glenn Beck’s publicist: Beck’s muchmaligned/praised decision to hold his “Restoring Honor” rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech has receivedconsistent media plug since it was announced several months ago. Love him or hate him, Glenn Beck knows how to sell Glenn Beck.

Voter turnout: Only 25 percent of eligible Arizona voters took part in this week’s primaries. This is consistent with the 2006 and 2008 primaries, which saw a 23 and 25 percent turnout, respectively.

The Blagojevichs: Rod Blagojevich, the embattled former Illinois governor accused of trying to sell President Obama’s old Senate seat, escaped conviction on 23 of the 24 federal charges brought against him Aug. 17. He will be retried in 2011. His brother, Robert, had all charges against him dismissed. And the Vich get richer.

It’s not always about race (but a lot of the time it is) Remy Albillar

n the wake of the internationally despised disaster called S.B. 1070, it’s been even more difficult to engage in productive discourse on the issue of immigration policy without being hindered by accusations of an anti-Latino sentiment. I promise, I’ll make no attempt to persuade you either way. I’m merely suggesting that now, more than ever, the debate on immigration is constricted by the inherent fear of being called a “bigot” or “anti-American,’ depending on which “wrong” side you’re arguing for. That’s why I’m pleased as punch that Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne’s professional aspirations have plopped him into the forefront of Arizona politics, since he’s pumped out a few gems of policy this year that are well worth some scrutiny. Perhaps a little compare and contrast will be instructive in determining if all government action impacting our neighbors to the south merits suspicion of racially motivated shenanigans. The first deals with Arizona’s Ajo School District. According to an article from the Aug. 22 The Arizona Republic, “Following a crackdown by … Horne, students won’t be allowed to board the bus unless their parents or guardians prove the children live in the district’s boundaries and not in Mexico.” In the same article, Ajo Superintendent Robert Dooley said, “the state investigation was flawed and that the district has found at least 60 of the students in question were

Arizona Daily Wildcat legal residents.” OK, fair enough, there have been some issues with the mandate’s execution. However, this should not discredit the reasoning behind the policy change itself. As Horne points out, it’s illegal to receive free education from

courses or classes that … promote the overthrow of the United States Government, … are designed primarily for pupils of a particular ethnic group … (or) advocate ethnic solidarity instead of the treatment of pupils as individuals.” In a CNN interview from May, Horne argued that the elimination of ethnic studies classes would prevent the development of “ethnic chauvinism” and that dissolving these classes would prevent students from being taught “narrowly about the background and culture of the

“Now, more than ever, the debate on immigration is constricted by the inherent fear of being called a ‘bigot’ or ‘antiAmerican,’ depending on which ‘wrong’ side you’re arguing for.” the state of Arizona if you are not a resident of Arizona. Also note that the policy change does nothing to affect the status of illegal immigrants already residing in Arizona, just those students who live in Mexico. This is not even an issue of race or citizenship status. This is an issue of geography. If you want a real piece of legislation to get your blood boiling, look no further than Horne’s other baby, H.B. 2281, signed into law by Gov. Jan Brewer last May. The law forbids a school district from including in its course curriculum “any

race they happened to have been born into.” Horne’s most ignorant and infuriating assumption is that only the members of the race whose culture the curriculum covers choose to take these classes. More disturbing is that Horne seems to disavow the existence of mixedrace students, those who struggle with their identity as a member of multiple cultures and are hungry for information and context that classes like these might provide to ease their existential migraines. Horne also argued that the literature of Tucson Unified

School District Mexican American Studies Department classes advocated for revolutionary action against the government, and cited instances of Tucson students dressing up in revolutionary garb and holding signs to protest the policy. But I believe Judy Burns, the president of the district’s governing board, who in May told the Los Angeles Times, “We don’t teach all those ugly things they think we’re teaching.” Because there were no riots. There was no violence. There was no revolution. There were just high school students, mere miles from the UA campus, who had been taught to appreciate the legitimate struggles of the oppressed and to exercise the right to non-violent protest that every race in this country has at some time suffered for. But despite the existence of real threats to our civil liberties like H.B. 2281, not every immigration law is part of a secret, ”George-Bushdoesn’t-care-about-blackpeople”-esque plot to oppress and exclude people based on the color of their skin. Actually, it’s a fairly conspicuous plot to exclude people from the benefits of citizenship in a nation in which they don’t live or pay taxes. As long as one state borders another with a sufficient discrepancy in GDP, a story of victimization will be spun. Get used to it. Or try to take over the world, so that you can dissolve all borders and create a utilitarian wonderland where bad thoughts are outlawed, nobody is special because everybody is, and Skynet’s machine army eventually overthrows you. Your choice. —Remy Albillar is a senior majoring in English and creative writing. He can be reached at letters@wildcat.arizona.edu.

online comments On ‘Rhetoric on immigration does nothing but scare’

I, for one, work on the border, and you could not be more ignorant! I suggest you spend a few days on the border and see what we go through. Border Patrol vehicles are everywhere? They are in certain areas, but there is a vast area where we do not get to. The drugs and human smuggling are worse now than they were when I first started working the border. I have had rocks thrown at me. I have been shot at. I have been spit on. You name it — and some of this is on a weekly basis! The amount of drugs we get in a week is staggering! Just imagine what we don’t catch. Meth, cocaine, marijuana … these people will kill anyone to protect it. This is what we are fighting. — Anonymous As I see from a few of the responses, a rational discussion regarding immigration is hard to come by these days. Thank you for writing a very insightful, thought-provoking article. Some of our politicians and cable news channels are doing their best to stir up the frenzy and mass hysteria regarding this very important issue. I had no idea that I lived in the kidnapping capital of the world or that we had beheadings everywhere until Jan Brewer, Russell Pearce, etc. told us. Great way to also promote tourism for our state! Again, thank you, Andrew, and I look forward to reading more of your articles. Keep up the good work. — Karen Q.

On ‘UA tumbles in newest U.S. News & World Report rankings’

Of course UA doesn’t pay attention to the rankings because they are so low. Maybe the school should wake up and realize how important prestige is toward endowment growth, recruiting better teachers, helping students land better jobs, etc. I don’t think I have ever heard someone choose UA for its prestige or academics. But if they want to never make a run at being a top public school such as UCLA, UVA, Texas, etc., so be it. — Anonymous

POLICEBEAT By Lucy Valencia ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Prescription expires over state lines

A University of Arizona Police Department officer stopped a car for speeding and for making an improper turn onto a street near the UA. The officer approached the vehicle from the passenger’s side. Upon seeing an open beer bottle near the passenger’s feet, the officer asked who it belonged to. A male sitting in the backseat on the passenger’s side stated, “It’s mine. I was drinking it, I just wanted to be honest with you.” The man identified himself with his driver’s license, and the officer noted he was not of legal drinking age. The officer conducted a vehicle search for further contraband. In the center console, he found a small glass container holding an unspecified amount of marijuana. The driver explained he had purchased the marijuana in his home state, where he had a prescription for it. He stated he was aware that his prescription was not valid in Arizona. The man was cited and released at the scene. The officer then placed the marijuana in UAPD evidence.

Unlocked doors in Modern Languages

Two UAPD officers were unlocking the doors of the Modern Languages building at approximately 6:48 a.m. on Aug. 24, when they noticed three south-facing doors located in the ground-level breezeway of the main building and the handicap door on the north side of the main building were unsecured. Police have not yet determined why the doors were unlocked.

A UAPD officer detained a student for shoplifting a water bottle from the UofA Bookstore on Aug. 24. Bookstore security staff caught the student on a surveillance camera as he took the water bottle. The individual was detained and taken to the first-level conference room without incident. The student was asked what he was doing in the bookstore that day, to which he replied that he went to the bookstore to purchase two folders for his classes. The student further explained he had been thirsty and felt dehydrated, so he thought he needed a larger water bottle than the plastic one he had. He then said he did not have enough money to buy the water bottle, so he made the decision to put it in his backpack and walk out of the bookstore without paying for it. The student was placed under arrest on charges of shoplifting and issued a criminal citation. Police Beat is compiled from official University of Arizona Police Department reports.

A new beginning Soccer team gets fresh start against Toreros By Michael Fitzsimmons Arizona Daily Wildcat

V-ball begins 2010 campaign Wildcats travel to South Bend, take on trio of schools By Alex Williams Arizona Daily Wildcat

Colin Darland/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Forward Alex Davis goes up for a header against Rutgers during Arizona soccer’s troubling 2009 season. The 2010 team, under the direction of new coach Lisa Oyen, is hoping to get off to a good start in the San Diego Tournament this weekend.

Come game time on Friday night in ing scorer, junior Renae Cuellar, but it also San Diego, the Arizona Wildcats soccer hopes to see some flair from freshman midprogram will sweep a bumpy 2009 sea- fielder Ana Montoya, who spent the sumson under the rug and look forward to a mer on Colombia’s U-20 team that reached clean slate against No. 22 University of the semifinals in the Women’s World Cup.

It’s nice when variables are in our favor.” you have a young group that may not have a lot of experience, but all they have Preparing for the Toreros and to do is follow suit with the returners,“ Waves Oyen added. The Wildcats will hit the ground runArizona will undoubtedly rely on its trio ning by playing two tough matches to of seniors — Becky Barry, Alex Davis, and open up the year in a tournament hosted Macke Mutz — as well as last year’s lead- by the University of San Diego.

“If you want to beat the best, you have to play against the best. You prepare yourself day one to play against that elite competition,” Oyen said. The USD Toreros are coming off an upset win over USC — a team that will likely be a tough out in the Pac-10 all season — and USD will be looking to carry that momentum into their matchup with Arizona. “(USD) has always been a strong side, and we have an idea of what to expect when we play against them so it won’t be a total shock as to what sort of style they play,” Oyen said. USD defeated the Wildcats 4-1 last season in Tucson in a match that was closer than the score indicates. This weekend’s matches offer an opportunity for some of Arizona’s freshmen to get their feet wet against elite competition when the Wildcats play Pepperdine University (1-0) on Sunday, a side that narrowly missed the NCAA tournament last season. “We’re kind of just excited to get going knowing that our first game we’ll see the kind of competition we’re going to see all year long,” Oyen said. Win or lose, the Wildcats will gain an understanding of where they stand after months of training as they continue to push the program back into Pac-10 prominence. “It will be a good gauge to see where we’re at right now, just to see what we need to work on and hopefully we have a result that’s positive,” Oyen added.

It’s good to be on top. The Arizona volleyball team has the upper hand heading into the Shamrock Invitational in South Bend, Ind., this weekend. The Wildcats — No. 18 in the AVCA Division I Coaches Top 25 Preseason Poll — are ranked higher than all three of their upcoming opponents: Cal Poly, Marshall and Notre Dame. But head coach Dave Rubio is making sure that the team doesn’t overlook its opponents. “You’re always nervous — anxious (about starting the season),” said Rubio. “We’re down in the middle (blocker position), but I think we should be able to overcome that … I’m excited about getting it going, but a little nervous competing against such a good team right off the bat.” Rubio shouldn’t have much to worry about because the Wildcats return with four seniors: Whitney Dosty, Tiffany Owens, Paige Weber and Danielle Holloway, all of whom played extensively in 2009. On top of being experienced, the tournament format also gives Arizona an edge. “We’re in pretty good shape,” Rubio said. “We’re going to have a chance to rest some kids. The nice thing about this tournament is that we’re playing one match all three days, when in a normal tournament you’re playing two matches on one day and then only one on another, so it’s nice to get some rest between games.” Even though this is her fourth time breaking camp and finally getting to compete against a different school, outside hitter Dosty is excited about finding out what the 2010 team is made of. “I think it’ll be good this weekend, taking the volleyball (team)on the road and seeing how we match up against other teams,” said Dosty, who is entering her fifth year in the program. “Getting a chance to play against other people will give us a chance to see how we match up. I think we’re all excited to play against someone other than ourselves.” Another challenge that early season tournaments and matches provide is the lack of available film, which leads to less scouting and game planning against opponents. “Usually we have video on teams from previous tournaments, but we obviously don’t have any previous tournaments yet,” said Courtney Karst, a junior from Centennial, Colo. “It’ll just be like while you play you need to catalog what the other players are doing and keep it in the back of your head … I feel like we have a real good shot at being successful” Arizona opens the tournament today at 4:30 p.m. EDT against Cal Poly before taking on Marshall on Saturday at 5 p.m. EDT and finishing with Notre Dame on Sunday at 1 p.m. EDT.

Freshman Robert Arvizu out of Phoenix North High School has joined the Arizona men’s basketball team as a walk-on, head coach Sean Miller announced Thursday. Arvizu, a high school teammate of fourstar freshman Daniel Bejarano, is the 15th member of Arizona’s 2010-11 roster. His father, Ray Arvizu Sr., was an AAU coach and mentor to Bejarano. The 6-foot, 185 pound guard averaged 9.8 points and 6.1 assists per game during his senior campaign as his team finished as the state’s champion in the 5A division. The school also won the championship game in 2009 when Arvizu hit the game-winning shot, according to a press release. — Kevin Zimmerman

Arizona football names captains

The Arizona football team named team captains Wednesday afternoon, tabbing quarterback Nick Foles, center Colin Baxter, defensive tackle Lolomana Mikaele and defensive end Brooks Reed as the leaders of the pack. Baxter captured the honor last season as well, rounding out a captains core that also included Cam Nelson, Terrell Turner and Earl Mitchell. “It means a lot,” Baxter said. “You got respect from your teammates. It means they see me as a leader so that means now I got to go out there and lead.” While Baxter is on his second goaround, Foles, Reed and Mikaele are all experiencing their first taste of

captaincy. “It’s a blessing. It’s a big responsibility,” Mikaele said. “Leading the defense, always doing the right thing, not just for me, but for everybody.” The defensive tackle’s selection was somewhat of a surprise due to his position as well as his soft-spoken nature. But the players, who voted on the captains, couldn’t agree more with Mikaele’s selection. “He’s the type of guy that gets in there every day and does everything right,” Baxter said. “He might not be a vocal leader, but he leads by example.”

Freshman Slavin making presence felt By Mike Schmitz Arizona Daily Wildcat Most freshmen come into training camp wide-eyed — intimidated by the bigger, faster, stronger athletes and the ramped up intensity of college football. But not freshman receiver Tyler Slavin. The 6-foot-2 wideout from Roosevelt High School in Fresno, Calif., came into camp confident and focused, and is turning heads just weeks into his college career. “He’s very developed for his age,” said junior speedster receiver William “Bug” Wright. “He’s doing a great job. He’s catching the ball when it’s thrown to him; he’s running great routes. I see a lot of potential.” Slavin doesn’t act like or have the aura of your average freshman. He’s calm, self-assured and focused on progressing as a team player rather than being caught up in the glamour of collegiate athletics. He wasn’t a big-name recruit – threestar and unranked by Rivals.com — but took advantage of first-team reps as No. 1 receiver Juron Criner recovered from a concussion. After only a few practices, players and coaches alike could tell that Slavin could play. When fellow receiver Travis Cobb was asked who had impressed him most during the camp, he responded, “I say Slavin.” “He’s made some plays. He has good hands,” Cobb added. “I’d like to see what he can do.” Although it’s obvious that Slavin wasn’t expected to impress like he has so soon, the soft-spoken receiver doesn’t get caught up in the praise. “I can always go more far and beyond,” Slavin said. “I’m always high on myself. I always say I’m my own worst enemy.” He isn’t a physical specimen like Criner or Dan Buckner, both 6-foot-4, and doesn’t possess the speed of Wright or Cobb, as he ran a 4.6 second 40-yard dash out of high school. But Slavin uses his smarts and precise route running to be effective. He’s a thinking receiver — he finished high school with a 3.8 GPA and aspires to enter the medical field — rather than the “lob it up and watch me go get it” type. He cited his hands, speed and ability to “disguise his routes” as his biggest strengths and considers himself a deep threat down the sideline. Although he wears No. 11 because of Cardinals’ wideout Larry Fitzgerald, Slavin models his game after Bengals’ receiver Terrell Owens. Slavin made it clear he doesn’t have the same mouth and attitude as Owens but likes the way he works on the field. “I try to just watch his routes, see what he’s doing, see how he works with the ball in the air and just kind of mimic

Co-defensive coordinator Tim Kish recruited the duo, but each made individual decisions in regards to becoming a Wildcat “It was completely individual,” Slavin said. “We were just going to support each other no matter if we went separate ways or not. “We are going to be best buddies throughout this whole college year,” he added. “Watch each other’s backs.” The 6-foot-3 Hill will most likely redshirt, as Slavin will compete for

But regardless of how much playing time each garners in 2010, the pair of high school teammates will make an impact on the Arizona Stadium field for years to come. “They can play. They’re smart receivers. They’re making plays out there,” said junior quarterback Nick Foles after the sixth practice of the season. “A lot of guys that young, they drop balls, they break down. They’ve been consistent. They’re going to be great receivers for this program, I think, this year and for the future.”

The Wildcats finished 52-14 for the 2010 season and were runners-up to UCLA after losing the championship series 2-0 in the Women’s College World Series, which took place in Oklahoma City, Okla., during June. The Wildcats are winners of eight national titles and are led by head coach Mike Candrea. Interested parties should contact assistant coach Larry Ray before Sept. 10 by visiting him at his office in room 239A in the McKale Center.

Bradford, the 2008 Heisman Trophy winner who missed most of last season at Oklahoma with a shoulder injury, had a much better half. He completed his first six passes and threw for two touchdowns in his first start since last October. A.J. Feeley started the first two games but was sidelined with a sprained right thumb. The No. 1 job is still up for grabs, but Bradford made a solid case for himself, although the Patriots defense was porous all night.

Rodgers sharp in Packers win The Associated Press

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Aaron Rodgers extended his sharp start to the preseason, throwing for 195 yards and three touchdowns in the first half of the Green Bay Packers’ 59-24 rout of the Indianapolis Colts at Lambeau Field on Thursday night. It was a costly night for the Colts. Running back Joseph Addai left the game in the third quarter with a concussion and linebacker Gary Brackett hurt his right hand. Peyton Manning made plenty of big plays against a porous Packers pass defense early on, but Rodgers was up for an offensive exhibition against one of the NFL’s elite quarterbacks. Trailing 17-7 early in the second quarter, Rodgers rallied the Packers (2-1) to a 28-17 halftime lead. Adding to the injury problems for Indianapolis (0-3), cornerback Jacob Lacey left the game with a concussion, offensive tackle Tony Ugoh hurt his toe and defensive tackle Antonio Johnson sustained a groin injury. The Packers lost cornerback Brandon Underwood to a shoulder injury, defensive lineman Jarius Wynn to a concussion and linebacker Desmond Bishop to a hamstring injury. Manning threw for 214 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.

He stayed in the game for one series after halftime, only to have things turn ugly. Manning was hit and stripped of the ball by outside linebacker Frank Zombo, an undrafted free agent making a bid for a roster spot, and it was scooped up by linebacker Robert Francois — who delivered a hard hit Addai when the running back tried to tackle him, leaving him woozy on the sideline. Packers backup quarterback Matt Flynn threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to John Kuhn, putting the Packers up 38-17. The Packers’ offensive and special teams success was tempered by another shaky preseason performance from the first-team defense, although rookie safety Morgan Burnett pounced on a Manning pass for an impressive interception late in the second quarter. Rodgers then executed a precision two-minute drill just before halftime, driving the Packers 78 yards in 1:29 for a 3-yard touchdown pass to James Jones. Packers tight end Jermichael Finley caught 6 passes for 85 yards and a touchdown. Rodgers handed the offense over to Flynn after halftime, but the scores kept coming. Green Bay’s defense has struggled in its first three preseason games. Defensive coordinator Dom Capers is keeping his scheme fairly vanilla until

the games count — although he did dial up pressure at times Thursday — and a few key players are out injured. Green Bay was without cornerback Al Harris, outside linebacker Clay Matthews, defensive lineman Cullen Jenkins and safety Atari Bigby. The Colts played without center Jeff Saturday and tight end Dallas Clark. The Colts started fast, with a 49-yard run by Addai on their first play from scrimmage and an 18-yard touchdown pass from Manning to Pierre Garcon right after that. Green Bay gave up a handful of big passing plays in the first quarter. Packers running back Ryan Grant got his first extensive preseason action, with mixed results. Grant rushed for 36 yards on eight carries, but lost control of the ball before teammate Scott Wells recovered. Packers backup running back Brandon Jackson lost a fumble. It was a good night for Tim Masthay in the Packers’ unsettled punter competition. Former Australian rules football player Chris Bryan hit a short punt with poor hang time in the first quarter. Then Masthay helped put points on the board, hitting a deep, high-hanging punt that was muffed by rookie returner Brandon James and recovered by the Packers’ Korey Hall in the end zone, giving Green Bay a 21-17 lead before Rodgers’ two-minute drill.

Patriots

Former Wildcat shines in NFL

continued from page 9

Bradford zipped passes between and over defenders. He went 4 for 4 for 48 yards and a 5-yard touchdown pass to Michael Hoomanawanui on his first series. On his third possession, Bradford was 3 for 4 for 48 yards, setting up a 25-yard field goal by Brown for a 10-7 lead. And on his fourth series, he hooked up with Hoomanawanui again for a 12-yard score and a 17-7 lead. Brown added a 45-yard field goal after Gronkowski’s 14-yard touchdown catch, putting St. Louis ahead 20-14 at halftime. Another Rams rookie quarterback, free agent Thaddeus Lewis from Duke, then led a 15-play, 76-yard march on the first series of the third quarter. It lasted 9 minutes, 19 seconds and ended with a 20-yard scoring pass to Brandon Gibson. Then the Patriots began their comeback — Brady’s touchdown passes of 65 yards to Randy Moss and 20 yards to Gronkowski for a 28-27 lead with 13:59 left in the game. Brian Hoyer than hit Sam Aiken with a 5-yard scoring pass after an interception by Brandon McGowan, making it 35-27. St. Louis marched down field to Toston’s touchdown, but Lewis’ conversion pass that would have tied the game was incomplete. The Patriots had grabbed the lead just 12 seconds into the game on a 97-yard kickoff return by Brandon Tate. But the next four times they got the ball, they failed to get a first down and punted.
