Summer rec center renovations delayed for a month Construction on the locker rooms at the Student Recreation Center has been ongoing since the end of last semester. After delays, the project is scheduled for completion Sept. 15 BY J.D. MOLINARY @DailyWildcat
Due to some unexpected setbacks, the locker room renovations at the Student Recreation Center are expected to be finished by Sept. 15 instead of the original Aug. 15 date. The Rec Center locker rooms have been closed all summer for construction and were originally planned to reopen by Aug. 15. However, this was an ambitious goal, according to Peter Dourlein, the assistant vice president for planning, design and construction and campus architect for the University of Arizona, who said renovation projects usually have unexpected obstacles. “Early on, we ran into some pretty significant extra work in demolition and structural work, which is pretty typical with a renovation,” Dourlein said. “We knew that the amount of work [that was scheduled] to be done in less than three months was pretty likely more than three months’ of work.” These problems, which included issues with the soil and unexpected rebar, cannot be detected until the work begins. Dourlein explained that these issues are estimated into the time frame and budget. Also, the construction company, Lloyd Construction, is working under a guaranteed maximum price contract, which means
there was an established maximum payment that they cannot exceed. The extension in construction time should not cost the UA anything beyond the $4,945,000 budget. In fact, Dourlein ensured the project is well within budget. But renovations may still not be done by Sept. 15. That date could still change. According to Dourlein, the contractor is working double shifts to get this finished. “Sept. 15 is frankly still aggressive,” Dourlein said, “but we’re pretty confident that everything will be done by then.” The lack of locker rooms has been a slight disruption to some students who can’t as easily get changed or shower after a workout. Despite this, students are excited for the new facilities. “It’s just kind of inconvenient, but it’s not too big of an issue,” said Matthew Smiley, a senior majoring in management and information sciences and operation management. “Besides that, I can’t wait to see what it looks like.” Many students have also been grateful the rec center has tried to offer the full gym amenities even though there is no access to the locker rooms. “They’re trying so hard to make it the same level of service,” said Mallary Parker, a conservation biology major. “They’re doing a pretty good job.” Over the summer, and until

these renovations are finished, students have access to portable showers and restrooms. This project has been in the works for years now. The old locker rooms were about 25 years old and considered overdue for replacement by staff and students alike. “A lot of complaints, I guess you could say, were about how outdated our lockers were,” said Ally Seacat, student manager at the Rec Center. “So when we found out we were getting new lockers, everyone was really excited about it.”

The process to develop the project was considered especially collaborative by Klindt Breckenridge, the president of the Breckenridge Group, the architecture firm that designed the new locker rooms. Breckenridge was delighted that so many people, including students, had a voice in this project. “That’s really a hallmark of this process,” Breckenridge said. “Breckenridge Group has done a lot of projects on campus over the years, and we rarely have the opportunity, outside of Campus

Rec, to focus on the needs of the students.” According to some of those who worked on the design of the new locker rooms, a big part of the process was creating an inclusive environment that will accommodate everyone. “We’re starting to create all-gender restrooms so that people of any gender can feel comfortable going into the restroom,” Dourlein said. “It’s the same thing for the showers … and that’s really just more of the norm now.”

Logistic issues plague OSFA My office of
financial aid experience
BY ANGELA MARTINEZ @anmartinez2120
Even before finding classes or getting school supplies, college students are met with the responsibility of financing school, and often could use a helping hand throughout that process. Every year the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid, located in the Administration building on the University of Arizona’s main campus, receives a large influx of students seeking guidance on how to pay for school. “The start of school is always a stressful time; you want to make sure you’ve done everything right,” said Kasey Urquidez, vice president for enrollment management. “We want to make sure we have enough people employed because the financial aspect of going to college is real and can be stressful, so we want to make sure students have the support they need to get the answers they need.” The 2016-2017 academic school year was the last year certain schools were allowed a quality assurance program, according to Urquidez. The quality assurance program authorized schools to establish their own criteria for how school documents are verified and processed. This year, no school has the opportunity to do so,

FINANCIAL AID, 7
If the University of Arizona were to do a survey on the most hated areas on campus, I’ll bet the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid would make it into one of the top-five spots. If you are one of the unlucky souls to realize you need to take a trip there, take a deep breath and remember to appreciate the help that the employees are trying to get you. For being such a dreaded area, the financial aid office does a pretty good job keeping students comfortable. On the night after my first day of school, I went to check UAccess and realized I was missing $7,000 worth of scholarships. My heart sank. I needed to get the money as soon as possible. The next morning, stress forced me out of my dorm at 7:30 a.m. The office doesn’t open until 8:00 a.m., but I thought I might be better off if I got a head-start, which is a big step for me; I’m never early for anything. I expected to wait outside when I reached the platform on top of the steps of the administration building at 7:45 a.m. Instead, I encountered pleasant surprise number one: The office let

POLICE BEAT BY JESSICA BLACKBURN @hotbread33
Public porn University of Arizona Main Library staff called the University of Arizona Police Department to report a man watching pornography on a public computer in the Library Information Commons at 4:16 p.m. on Aug. 20. Police noted the same subject had been arrested nearly a year earlier for misdemeanor warrants and drug possession after library staff called to report the man drinking alcohol in the same area. A UAPD officer arrived on the scene, approached the man and stood behind him for a moment before the subject noticed police presence. The website the man was looking at displayed approximately 20 different still and moving images depicting women in minimal clothing, barely covered breasts and buttocks covered only by thong underwear. Words on the site indicated the user could pay money for a certain number of minutes, presumably to watch pornographic video. The officer made contact with the man and advised him library staff requested a six-month exclusionary order on him for repeatedly watching pornography on public computers. The man told the officer he had forgotten previous warnings due to “traumatic brain injury.” He requested to leave the library unescorted to prevent him further embarrassment, which the officer granted. Showering intoxicated UAPD officers were dispatched in reference to an intoxicated UA minor in Pueblo de la Cienega Residence Hall possibly threatening another resident around 10 p.m. on Aug. 20. The man who claimed to be threatened told police a resident assistant instructed him to watch the intoxicated student inside the restroom. While doing so, the intoxicated resident said, “I’ll knock you on your ass right now if you don’t let me leave” and asked him if he wanted to fight. The man watching him told police he didn’t feel threatened but wanted them to check on the student’s welfare since he was vomiting and appeared to be extremely intoxicated. Staff also speculated that, earlier in the evening, the man had been knocking on residents’ doors then running back to his own room. The resident was in an area restroom taking a shower when police eventually entered the restroom and made contact with him as he exited the shower. The man took police to his room to speak privately and told police he drank alcohol with his friends earlier in the evening and admitted to knocking on other residents’ doors and running away but denied making threats to any other resident.

Here at the UA, 38% of students didn’t drink in the past 30 days. Of those who do, 63% make their own drinks to limit their alcohol intake. (2016 Health & Wellness Survey, n= 3,113)
Is hard alcohol worse for you? Maybe. Red Cup readers know that the alcohol in hard liquor is no different than what’s found in beer or wine – there’s just more of it, ounce for ounce. We’ve all heard that “Beer is good, but liquor’s quicker” (and could leave you sicker), which is what makes staying in your “sweet spot” (think social buzz) that much harder. Sure, you can overdo it with any kind of alcohol, but drifting off into the land of hangovers, drama, regrets – even a trip to the hospital or worse – is that much easier if your drink is 40% alcohol, compared to the 5% typically found in beer. That higher concentration of alcohol makes measuring your drink even more important. Do this by skipping the “handle pulls” and, instead, using a shot glass or the bottom
line/indentation found on many party cups to measure a single standard drink of liquor (1oz). Looking for an even easier strategy? Keep it simple by steering clear of the hard stuff altogether. Choose drinks like beer, wine, or even a mixed drink with the alcohol dialed down to help regulate not only how much you drink, but how fast you drink it. It might just make your night out more fun, safe, and social – and who doesn’t want that? Keep in mind that when drinking turns competitive, the alcohol almost always wins – especially when hard alcohol is involved. Call us biased, but we think “handle pulls” make for a better American Ninja Warrior obstacle name, anyway.

FINANCIAL AID FROM PAGE 3
therefore there is a weightier process for verification of documents that needs to happen in order for students to receive aid. “At this point we are analyzing our priorities and trying to do the best we can to serve our students,” said Rebekah Salcedo, director at the financial aid office. “Students’ financial aid is critical to their success, we need to help alleviate their concerns about what’s going on with their financial aid so they can focus on school and not worry about their financial aid.” Throughout the start of the semester, the financial aid office has been trying a number of things to help students who walk in the office. These efforts include student affairs enrollment team members answering questions in the lobby while students wait in line. Oftentimes, students don’t have to wait for their number to be called and just need quick questions answered, according to Urquidez. The Student Union Memorial
Center, the Alumni Association and the Bookstore are also teaming up during the busy initial weeks of the semester and offering snacks and prizes while students wait for financial aid help. “It’s important we get the help we need because it’s where students pay for their school and a lot of times if they have issues, which they most often do because it’s complicated... they get somewhere they can get help,” said Britney Levetan, a senior in
communications. “For me personally, the whole process itself was complicated but the office was a great help to me.” Urquidez said the financial aid office is interested in adding certain features in the future, such as offering an improved and user-friendly phone system, as well as instant chat features where students or parents can have confidential conversations about financial aid, or a system in which callers don’t have to wait on hold and can receive a call back
during the day. “We’d love to get to a place where we have that type of system, so that’s something that we’re working toward so we can have that in the future,” Urquidez said. “We’ve tried to implement those things without having the technology and systems this year, but I hope that in the future we have some of those other things to be able to serve the student population in an even better customer service manner.”
FINANCIAL AID OPINION FROM PAGE 3
students in before it even opens. When I entered, I saw that a lot of people had the same idea, or nervous prompting, that I did. I wasn’t going to be number one, or even number 10, in line. It looked like a good 25 students were already sitting in the chairs inside the office, staring blankly into the distance. Pang of disappointment over, I assumed a chair toward the outside of the room. Those coming in five or 10 minutes after me had similar reactions. It seems it’s impossible to beat the line in the financial aid office. Even that early in the morning, though, the office showed an effort to make its wait bearable and less stressful. At the tables near the waiting area, there were boxes of breakfast bars and jugs of ice-cold water. I have had a similar experience every time I have visited the office. Sometimes they have giant trays of cookies too! Though these comforts are small in an anxious wait, it does show that the office wants students to feel the best they can in their circumstances. Thinking I’d be early, I didn’t bring anything to keep myself occupied. So I just sat there and thought about all of the ways that my visit could go wrong. Except that’s not exactly what happened. The financial aid office was one step ahead of this problem, too.
COURTNEY TALAK/THE DAILY WILDCAT
STUDENTS WALK OUT OF the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid on the first day of classes, Aug. 21.
On the waiting screen, where a student No. 35 might get stuck endlessly watching the waiting time for No. 17 tick upward, the office plays cute animal videos. I tried to ignore the screen and think about what I was going to say, but eventually I decided to watch. It did make the time pass faster and kept my stress levels down. Eventually, my number was called. I walked up to the counter and began explaining why I should have $7,000 more disbursed than I did. The employee helping me looked doubtful but listened and always let me speak. He had to send messages to various supervisors about my problem, but he assured me he would not stop helping me until we had a clear verdict on my situation.
While talking, I tried to keep my stress down and my voice calm. However, I thought about how the financial aid office must see students at their worst. They are worried about their funds, about the wait messing with the timeline of their day, about communicating with people who may or may not understand their problem, while worrying about the beginning of the school year in general. I asked my attendant about stressed students while we waited to hear back from higher up. He told me that almost 600 students came in the day before, and he appreciated that I kept calm because students do yell at the employees sometimes. Although it’s inconvenient to have to go to the financial aid office, I saw that
the employees really wanted to help me. They don’t want to add extra stress to us as we start school. They want to make it as easy as possible. Thankfully, the office resolved my problem and I left worry-free. The next time you have to enter the financial aid office, I hope you’ll remember how much they’re trying. They hope so hard that you’ll leave satisfied and you can be the special student that recognizes their effort and gives them a much-needed thank you. They, like everybody else, deserve recognition when they’re doing things right. —Toni Marcheva is a sophomore majoring in philosophy, politics, economics and law

COMMENTARY
Fear-mongering shouldn’t dominate politics OPINION
BY CHUCK VALADEZ @DailyWildcat
Terror attacks have driven politics. To drive sheep into a pen, you must have a dog and a rod. Fearcampaigning has been a practice since the earliest days of democracy, and it works to try to disguise itself as democracy. Proponents of this tactic include Adolf Hitler, Francisco Franco, Marine Le Pen, both George Bushes, Lyndon Johnson, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump ... the list goes on and on. Almost no leader is clean of fear-campaigning. Terror events like 9/11, the 2015 Paris attacks and Benghazi are only a handful of attacks that have impacted political tensions within the United States and the global community. The aftermath of the attack on the World Trade Center sparked an irrational fear and an unwinnable war in the Middle East. The Paris attacks led to a jump in the polls for French candidate “Marine” Le Pen, who was a huge supporter of Trump — and vice versa — and Benghazi would later be one of the scandals that kept many from voting for Clinton.
The question still remains: Should terror attacks truly influence politics as much as they do? Keep in mind, most terror attacks are not known of until they actually take place, or so “they” say, so what would an elected official do to prevent terror? Does a politician propose increased intervention and investigation into terror, more frequent patrol into neighborhoods ... or are they going to build a wall? All of these options have been proposed by fear mongers. These techniques are said to protect your freedoms — but examine those options more closely, and just try convincing yourself that they are tools to protect your freedom. Those commonly proposed policies are how conservatives sneak big government into their “small government” platforms. Often knocking the left on ideas of too much government intervention with health care and aiding the working class, conservatives nonchalantly say in order to protect your freedoms from the terrible world of terror, you must give them rights to 24/7 surveillance. All this does is expand government jobs and, in turn, bring in more money for federal officials. Yes, the left wants to raise taxes and give you basic services, but at least they’re not sugar coating it and saying they are limiting government. Recent terror attacks have brought with them a heaping handful of Islamophobia, even though more terror attacks have been committed by white
Americans. The media just refuses to label these as “terror attacks,” which politicians may use to pander. Examples include Ted Cruz’s proposal to patrol Muslim majority neighborhoods to Trump saying he will enact a travel ban in Muslim-majority countries (At least Obama was a bit sneaky about doing so). In the Western world, views on Muslims vary. In the United States, a 2017 Pew Research Center survey found those who believe “Islam is likelier than other religions to encourage violence among its believers,” varies by political party. About 63 percent of those who identify as Republican said they believe in this statement while 26 percent of Democrats would agree. As a whole, 49 percent of Americans responded that at least “some” U.S.-residing Muslims are anti-American, while 24 percent said there is a “fair amount of support for extremism.” Terror attacks have been a great way to sway politics, it’s true. They give those too lazy to do their own research and connect the dots easy answers and bandwagons to join. I myself am one of those who believe it’s all an inside job used to manipulate you into believing in the corrupt system only used to put more money into the pocket of big bankers like Jacob Rothschild. —Chuck Valadez is majoring in philosophy, politics, economics and law

THE COLLEGE OF HUMANITIES is offering a new minor related to world languages. The minor allows students to study texts in a variety of languages, presenting perspectives from around the world.
New degree gives students world tour of languages BY DAVID PUJOL @deathlydavid
The University of Arizona announced this summer a newly introduced world literature degree for students. Classes are set to be available as soon as next spring. The UA College of Humanities surveyed their last semester graduates, asking if they would have chosen to study world literature had they the opportunity. To their surprise, approximately 65 percent of those surveyed said “yes.” “There are people with important things to say that aren’t dead Englishmen,” said Natalie Robbins, a creative writing senior. “To be a well-rounded person, you have to consider work by authors from different backgrounds and parts of the world.” Robbins said that most of the authors that are taught in high schools and colleges are fairly homogeneous, and she would be interested in learning more about foreign literature. However, to start the path toward this new degree being your major, you’ll need a hefty load of language credits. Students will need to complete six semesters of foreign language or credit equivalents. Students will also take English 280, an introductory literature course that focuses on multiple texts from around the globe in their original languages. “The world opens up to them with this new-world literature degree,” said UA German professor Steven Martinson. “They have an opportunity to study a wide variety of different cultures and literature and how those cultures are expressed.”
Martinson advocated for the creation of the degree alongside 11 other members of a committee to get this degree in the hands of students. UA German associate professor David Gramling, who has been teaching world literature since he finished his doctorate, will teach English 280 come this spring. Although he is not on the committee that spearheaded the creation of this degree, he is more than excited to begin enlightening students about world literature. “It’s nice to be involved in a program that is so focused on language, translation, culture and multilingualism that is getting started here on this campus,” Gramling said. “To be with that effort from the first moment is great, and I’m really excited about it.” Gramling is currently working on perfecting his plan for the course he’ll teach this spring, in which he said students will think about storytelling, literary, poetic and aesthetic traditions from around the world in various languages from Spanish and Portuguese to Tagalog. While not every student has six language credits laying around, Gramling still urges students to come check out the introductory course. He said students take English 280 before committing to the whole degree to see if it’s something they like. Both Gramling and Martinson have high hopes for this new degree, and both said students will be better for having taken it. “The nice thing about the world literature degree is that it can complement different majors on campus and you can work with faculty on campus,” Martinson
said. “That is one of the biggest strengths that we have with this degree. Not too many programs offer the ability to do so as an undergrad student.” The degree itself requires two English courses: English 280, introduction to literature, and English 380, literary analysis. Aside from the six foreign language credits, the program also requires 15 credits of upper-division literature courses of which two must be from different regions. The program also needs six credits of electives and a threecredit capstone course. “Students pursuing this degree are able to embrace the world and receive a greater understanding of what it means to live in a global world and why that might be important and how it can contribute to their education,” Martinson said. Martinson also urges students to involve themselves in a study abroad component to further strengthen their understanding and grasp of world literature. Studying abroad will particularly compliment learning world literature in the sense that students can go to just about any country and learn about their literature while immersing themselves in the culture. “I’m hoping that we can build a community of scholars and, by studying world literature and world cultures and that, will help contribute to building a global community of scholars,” Martinson said. “With this new degree, we will be able to work together, share ideas, have a great deal of collaborations between faculty and students, and I think that’s something that we need to emphasize more in our academic pursuits.”
Bravo to the UA Museum of Art for bringing “Woman-Ochre,” a Willem de Kooning painting, back home after it was stolen over 30 years ago. An art and furniture dealer purchased the piece at an estate sale in Silver City, New Mexico and, realizing they had an original de Kooning, contacted the UA. Boo to President Donald Trump for his pardon of former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Our state’s notorious sheriff has regularly violated human rights, the constitution and law. He has gotten away with profiling Arizonans for 24 years. Enough is enough. Bravo to one of our favorite places for a morning hike for extending its hours. The popular Tumamoc Hill will now be open to the public from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m., giving all of us more time to enjoy the desert’s plant and animal life just off campus. Boo to the delay in the Student Recreation Center renovations. We understand there were unforeseen challenges that contributed to this delay, and we’re excited to see this project once it’s completed. However, the price tag is $4,945,000, and the new date, Sept. 15, might be overly ambitious. Bravo to UA President Dr. Robert Robbins for his visit to Mexico to meet with academic and governmental officials. The visit demonstrated commitment to maintain and grow a cooperative relationship and link between the UA and Mexico. Boo to the UA and the athletics department for not commenting addressing the recent lawsuit filed against the Arizona Board of Regents and the university. A former UA swim team member claims he was assaulted by a former teammate and that he did not receive help when he reported it to former head coach Rick DeMont. The student said that DeMont created “severe mental anguish” for him and pressured him to pull his complaint. The athletics department has yet to comment on this lawsuit, and a UA spokesperson told the Arizona Daily Star they don’t comment on pending litigation. Bravo to U.S. District Judge A. Wallace Tashima for ruling that six years ago ending the Mexican American Studies program at Tucson Unified School District was a violation of students’ first and 14th amendment rights.

Designation as a Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Research could bring new opportunities for students BY BRIAN WINKLER @Brianewinkler
Last week, the University of Arizona was named a Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Research by the Department of Homeland Security and the National Security Agency. This designation was awarded to Eller’s School of Business’ Management Information Systems department and is following the UA’s newly created Masters program in Cybersecurity. The CAE program was created in 1998 with the goal of reducing cyber vulnerabilities in our national infrastructure through higher education and research. This program is jointly sponsored by the National Security Agency and Department of Homeland Security. The CAE-R designation allows students attending certain universities to apply for scholarships and grants through the Department of Defense Information Assurance Scholarship program. Additionally, once students complete one of these programs, they will receive explicit recognition for their accomplishments. Though this designation has been given to Eller’s MIS department, it is awarded on behalf of the entire university, giving students enrolled in any of UA’s cybersecurity programs the opportunity to apply for these federal grants and scholarships. Before this designation, the MIS department already held a Scholarship For Service designation from the National Science Foundation as well as a Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education, or CAE-CDE. According to Hsinchun Chen, UA Regents professor of MIS
COURTESY HSINCHUN CHEN
MIS PROFESSOR HSINCHUN CHEN is the director of Eller’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. The laboratory is part of Eller’s MIS department, which received the Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Research designation.
and director of Eller’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, this designation came about due to the university’s SFS designation, ongoing cybersecurity research, cybersecurity publications and representation at cybersecurity conferences. “That created the kind of activity that allowed us to get that designation,” Chen said. “And among [SFS designated universities], we are top of the line.” One of the ongoing cybersecurity research projects is in Cyber Threat Intelligence,
which identifies emerging threats in cyberspace, according to Chen. A core piece of CTI is identifying which vulnerabilities individuals in hacker communities are exploring, and addressing those vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. “You understand the hackers’ modus operandus to proactively protect your infrastructures,” Chen said. “Right now, I believe we have the largest collection of hacker-generated content in the world.” One of Chen’s lead researchers
in Cyber Threat Intelligence and Vulnerability Assessment is Ph.D student Sagar Samtani. “What we have been doing is putting out a lot of cybersecurity related publications, not just in Dr. Chen’s lab, but all across the entire department,” Samtani said. “[This designation] really starts to shine a light in terms of the type of work that has been going on in the MIS department. Whether it be Cyber Threat Intelligence or Vulnerability Assessment, it brings a level of excellence and recognition to the department for the research
we have been doing.” Samtani said he believes this designation will not just bring in more educational opportunities, but also more research opportunities. “Since this designation will give us a leg up in trying to get more funding, that funding will be reinvested in students, bringing in more students, bringing additional funding for them, bringing in additional infrastructure for them so that they can continue to do Cybersecurity research,” Samtani said.

TECH CORNER
The joys of using any computer: The cloud OPINION
BY BRIAN WINKLER @Brianewinkler
T
he cloud, or as I like to call it, “someone else’s computer,” has become thoroughly integrated into our daily lives. We can automatically back up our pictures to iCloud, turn in our homework using Dropbox and email our peers gigantic files using Google Drive. Cloud services have become so easy to use they seem to have created a mystique surrounding what is actually happening to our data when they’re uploaded to “the cloud.” Are they just floating around in the ether of the internet? Do little elves climb into our phones at night and scurry off with everything we want to save? As with most things, the reality is a lot less magical though not any less ingenious. The seemingly overnight boom in cloud services has revolutionized the way we store and share our data. Thanks to Google Docs, the days of having to pass around a thumbdrive
to collaborate on a paper are long behind us. While the term “the cloud” has become a catch-all for these types of services, they can be broken down into two groups, cloud storage and cloud computing. When you think of the cloud, what you’re probably picturing is cloud storage. These are the services like iCloud and Dropbox, which store your files for you and allow you to access them from any device. The way this is achieved is quite straight-forward. When you add a file to Dropbox, it is automatically uploaded over the internet to one of Dropbox’s servers, which are essentially highpowered computers with a huge amount of storage (think the hard drive on your computer, but much faster and way more expensive). You are allocated a certain amount of space on these servers (2 Gigabytes for a free Dropbox account, 5 Gigabytes for a free iCloud account) and your uploaded files are stored in this designated space. On Dropbox your files are first split into “blocks,” which are essentially virtual individual hard-disks. Once split into blocks your data are encrypted, helping protect them from those trying to gain unauthorized access to your files.
EVENING ENGLISH PROGRAM
Finally, these encrypted blocks are backedup to multiple Dropbox servers in various geographical locations. That way, if one of their storage facilities (also called server farms) burns to the ground, your data is still safely stored in one of their many other facilities. Some folks like to call this “quality assurance.” While cloud computing is vastly different, it still works on the same principle: using someone else’s computer instead of your own. Apple’s voice assistant, Siri, is an example of cloud computing. An iPhone simply doesn’t have enough processing power to analyze something as complex and nuanced as human speech. So when you ask Siri something, your voice is sent to one or more remote servers for processing and language decryption. Some of these servers don’t even belong to Apple, but rather to thirdparty contractors. When you ask Siri a complex mathematical equation, your voice is sent to Apple’s servers to convert the input into text. That server then forwards the translated text to Wolfram Alpha, a popular web-based mathematics computational engine for final analysis. Some popular cloud services even operate
as both a cloud storage and cloud computing system. Take Google Docs for example. When you collaborate on editing a document, you are more or less connecting to a cloud computing service that runs an application allowing for multiple people to access the same document to edit it in real time. You can insert notes, message everyone viewing the document and even see exactly where another collaborator’s cursor is located. But when it’s all said and done, the document itself is actually being saved on Google’s cloud storage platform, Google Drive. By integrating cloud computing with cloud storage, Google was able to make a service that has completely revolutionized the way we work together while creating the new industry standard for document collaboration. The next big idea in cloud services is hard to predict. As with most tech products, the ones that gain traction are the ones that we never could have dreamed of. But there is one (almost) sure thing we can expect from the next great cloud service: it will make our lives a hell of a lot easier. —Brian Winkler is a transfer student from Pima Community College majoring in computer engineering

UAMA’s Mapping Q exhibit explores LGBTQ representation BY VICTORIA PEREIRA @vguardie917
Mapping Q has returned to the UA Museum of Art for its fifth exhibition and is allowing LGBTQ youth to examine representation within the museum and its artwork. Partnered with the Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation and its Arizona Life Links for Youth, a suicide prevention program, Mapping Q has endeavored to provide a place for LGBTQ youth to discuss how they are represented within the museum and what changes and improvements they would like to see made. “The idea is really about trying to get people — not just students but also the public — to rethink what it means to be welcomed in spaces,” said Chelsea Farrar, the curator of Community Engagement at the art museum. “When an individual doesn’t see representation of themselves in a museum, they are a lot less likely to feel like they are welcome there.” Mapping Q provides a space for people to discuss how they feel about the representation of themselves in the museu. It also allows curators like Farrar to take note and have discussions about how to improve that space to allow everyone to feel welcome. The exhibit also gives LGBTQ youth a chance to examine the art and encourages them to take part and express themselves through artistic endeavors. Farrar is the founder and manager of Mapping Q and first got the idea for the program when teaching at a high school. As both an art teacher and the Gay Straight Alliance facilitator, Farrar heard about the negative treatment some of her LGBTQ students were experiencing. “We created a map, and I asked them to kind of map where were instances that these things were occurring,” Farrar said. “Through that experience, we realized most of the incidents were directly in classrooms and the administrative office itself.” Farrar said the results of the mapping exercise surprised her as she had believed incidents

like these would be more likely to happen in school hallways or in bathrooms, not in the presence of teachers and administrators. “It made me rethink what is happening to make students feel safe in spaces that are supposed to be for them,” Farrar said. She decided to bring a similar mapping exercise to the art museum, where she was interning at the time, to examine the climate in another public space. The Mapping Q program has been going strong ever since. Participants are invited to tour the museum and record their thoughts about the various pieces of art and if they can see themselves represented anywhere in the space. When it can be difficult to find this
representation, the question of how to create that feeling of inclusion is discussed. The program also gives participants the chance to make art, expressing themselves through their own work to create a more inclusive environment. Oftentimes, this art is incorporated into the exhibit itself and gives the student creators a chance to show their work. “This is not just art hanging up anywhere; this is art that’s in a gallery, that’s right next to the big hitters of modern American art,” Farrar said. “They’re seeing their work displayed in that same context, so it elevates their idea. It elevates their experience and identity in a way that they’ve never had before.” According to feedback from the participants, Mapping Q has
helped the art museum make strides in representing a wider array of people through their artwork. When each Mapping Q exhibit opens, Farrar surveys returning participants and around 85 percent stated they felt more welcome in the art museum and on the UA campus compared to years prior. “For me, Mapping Q has been everything from a fun place ... to go after school and doodle to a place to have serious philosophical conversations with like-minded people and everything in between,” wrote Elvis Gertrude Godwin-Snyder in an email interview. Godwin-Snyder is a psychology major at Pima Community College and has been involved in Mapping Q for about four years.
Godwin-Snyder was artistic before participating in Mapping Q, but he credits the program for encouraging him to continue pursuing art. His pieces have been featured in the museum three times. “I want this program to continue to be an outlet for LGBTQ and allied youth in whatever shape or form,” wrote Godwin-Snyder. “I want to welcome everyone to come in the museum and open their minds to our perspectives and hopefully learn something along the way.” Mapping Q opened at the museum of art on Aug. 18 and will continue until April 22, 2018. Any interested LGBTQ youth looking to get involved can find contact information on the exhibit’s web page.

HOCO Fest expected to bring international talent BY AVA GARCIA @ava_garcia1
The annual HOCO Fest begins this Wednesday, Aug. 30, kicking off five days of music, art, food and more. This year, Hotel Congress aims to establish their festival as an event known on an international scale by bringing in foreign artists. The popular venue will also use the additional publicity to showcase the highlights of Tucson to visitors. Co-presented by Hotel Congress and New York-based creative agency Flip Your Wig Media, this HOCO Fest will be the 12th of its kind, according to Matt Baquet, talent buyer at Hotel Congress and director and co-founder of Flip Your Wig Media. For this year’s national and international focus, Baquet said the event will include musical artists from Orlando, Virginia, New York, London and Berlin. Baquet said in the past bands were usually coming from Tucson, Phoenix or sometimes Los Angeles. “It’s been a very Arizona-centric, localcentric event in the past, but this year we did some targeted marketing to LA, to Phoenix, Albuquerque; we’re trying to really spread it out,” Baquet said. “We definitely have sold a handful of tickets from all over the West. Hopefully next year it’s even more broad and we’re getting people from all over the U.S. and then forward and onward from there.” The length of the festival has also been extended. HOCO Fests of years past usually lasted three days, but this year’s festival will begin two days before Labor Day weekend for the first time, according to Hotel Congress entertainment and booking director David Slutes. Baquet said it seemed like a “natural step” for Hotel Congress to work on expanding the reach of the festival. “One of the big points of this festival is Tucson is really thriving right now, and we’re trying to shed light on this amazing community, and we’re trying to get it on the map, per se,” Baquet said. Part of shedding that light is putting the spotlight on Tucson’s desert environment. Baquet said the lineup for the event came together in two months, and he said “it’s that much easier to book interesting artists because they want to come to the desert and they want to see what it’s all about.” Baquet, a Tucson native now living in New York, said there’s intrigue and mystery about the desert. “People want to be here,” he said. “People

want to see what it’s like. There’s just something in the air.” There are 56 artists and bands set to perform during the five-day festival, spread across 10 stages. Baquet said each stage caters to a different genre. Headliners include Thundercat, Frankie Cosmos, John Maus, Cherry Glazerr and Project Pablo, among others. This festival is more than just music. Other activities planned include regional liquor tastings each day, yoga classes on Saturday and Sunday, an “Art in the Lobby” exhibit and a vintage clothing fair on Saturday. Cup Café in Hotel Congress and Maynards Market and Kitchen will also have special items on their menus during the festival, according to the festival’s website. “I think it’s important to add non-music elements when you’re trying to do something
that’s actually about the community and people, rather than just the music,” Baquet said. “We’re just trying to throw as much flavor at the people coming from outside Tucson as we can.” The event will also include a lecture by Elysia Crampton, a HOCO Fest performer, about music history, Native American art, queer Native culture, Spanish chronicler studies, disability justice and trans liberation, among other topics, according to the HOCO Fest website. The lecture will take place at the University of Arizona on Saturday, Sept. 2, at 4 p.m. “It just seemed like a very relevant and perfect fit for this festival and this town in particular, and we were lucky to team up with the U of A and Casa Libre to make it happen over there,” Baquet said. “To me, it represents what we’re really trying to get done, which is open some minds and bring like-minded people together. We’re
out here for the music, but we’re also out here for the fellowship and the collaboration and fighting the good fight.” Slutes said he is most excited about the headliners of the shows and Saturday night’s lineup inside, which features many electronic artists.For more information about the lineup and schedule of activities for HOCO Fest, visit Hotel Congress’ website at hotelcongress.com/ hoco. Tickets can be purchased at the door, at the Hotel Congress front desk or online. Ticket prices range from $15 for a single day ticket to $45 for a festival package. VIP tickets, which include a VIP seated meal with an appetizer, two entrees and a dessert, start at $100. The festival will be held at Hotel Congress, and some events are for ages 21 and up only. Be sure to check the Daily Wildcat website for select coverage of the upcoming HOCO Fest.

COMMENTARY

MANY MILLENNIALS ARE WAITING to have kids until after they finish their degree. The average age for a woman to have a child is 26.3 years old.
Right now kids aren’t my plan, but that could change OPINION
BY SAMMY MINSK @DailyWildcat
“
I will N-E-V-E-R have kids,” I told my dad after I returned from my six-month nannying job in Spain. “There’s this thing in Spongebob where the camera shows Spongebob’s cute bucktooth smile, but then the camera zooms in and you see huge zits and worms coming out of his sponge holes. Nannying is like that,” I explained. Families can look perfect with wonderful, charming children. But when you live with them in close proximity, you see things that make you wonder why the heck people want to have kids. The family I nannied for had three kids who were all intelligent, adorable and funny. However, when I think back on the months I spent in
Spain, the negative experiences seem to override the positive ones. I can’t tell you how many times I had to sit quietly at the dinner table while the oldest son got yelled at for not studying, or how many times I was stuck in the car for three hours with the kids crying about how their ears wouldn’t pop. My favorite was waking up the 6-year-old boy who would immediately yell how much he hated me. My parents have assured me that I’m still young and my mind could change. According to NPR, the average age for a woman in the U.S to have her first child is at 26.3 years old. So, I still have time. The leading cause for women to wait is due to “less sex and more contraception,” Bill Albert, of the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, told NPR. He credits sex education taught in school, long-form birth control and possibly the horrifying MTV show, “Sixteen and Pregnant.” Michelle Marquez, a graduate student in educational leadership, said she always knew she wanted children. “It’s something I’m really passionate about,” she said.
“Having a family is the ultimate goal.” Marquez wants to wait until her late 20s to be financially stable and finished with her degree. This is a common plan among students: first completing their degree then securing a steady income before starting a family. Rae Pickens, an environmental science major, firmly decided she does not want to have kids of her own. “I would foster or adopt,” she said. Her reasoning is because of the abrupt rise in the human population. She, too, said she will wait, if she decides to adopt, to start a family. I can agree my first-hand experience with kids was much more involved than most. Working five days a week and living with a family in another country made my minimal hours of babysitting effortless and fun. I can’t help but wonder how students who want kids would feel if they had to live with a foreign family and be shaken awake every Saturday by screaming children and banging piano keys. But here I am at age 25, only 1.3 years away from the average age to have a first child. A lot could happen, and maybe I’ll change my mind.

PODCAST REVIEW
An Earful: Disappearance and deception in “Rabbits” The Daily Wildcat’s new podcast review series, “An Earful,” will explore the world of audio storytelling BY VICTORIA PEREIRA @vguardie917
Before television swept the world into the visual age, people around the globe depended on radios for their daily dose of home entertainment and news. From stories about events happening half a world away to music from popular musicians, listeners young and old gathered around radios. The world is a bit different today, and while the medium is far from obsolete, radio shows like “The Abbott and Costello Show” or CBS’s “Radio Mystery Theater” aren’t typically found on the airwaves these days. However, the world of podcasting has filled that gap, taking the world by storm. Smartphone apps like Podcasts by Apple, Stitcher Radio, Podbean and more allow anyone with a smart device to choose from thousands upon thousands of free programs from every genre under the sun. It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the incredible amount of content at one’s fingertips, so here’s some help in deciding what’s worth a listen: While a large percentage of podcasts are non-fiction, there is a treasure trove of fictional listening out there. One of those gems is “Rabbits.” “Rabbits” is a story about a journalist’s search for her missing best friend and the frightening alternate reality game that ties into her disappearance. The main character, Carly Parker, is tired of police ignoring her concerns about her best friend Yumiko and decides to do some digging herself, but she quickly gets wrapped up in the strange and complicated ARG known only as Rabbits. Produced by the Public Radio Alliance and Minnow Beats Whale, “Rabbits” premiered Feb. 28 of this year and finished its first season July 4. While it is a fictional show, the creators never outright address it as such, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the story and question where exactly the line is between reality and fiction. The show gained popularity quickly, acquiring new listeners through other related programs “Tanis” and “The Black Tapes.” It was clear by the first couple of episodes, however, that these fans weren’t just sticking around because of the production house. “Rabbits” has an exceptional voice cast. Carly Parker is an adept narrator, and the listener quickly becomes enamored with her and her dedication to finding her friend. She’s a classic protagonist facing incredible odds and is a joy to root for throughout her journey. Much of the supporting voice cast holds its own alongside Parker, adding intriguing characters to the story. “Rabbits” also has a strong soundtrack. The podcast’s use of the same tracks throughout the season can become a bit repetitive, but the overall tone is consistent and compliments the plot’s eerie tone. Weaving a narrative through an audio-only medium is not an easy task. Many have tried and failed to create a captivating podcast that gives enough context for the reader to create a visual in their mind. “Rabbits” does not have this issue. By the end of the first episode, the mysteries of Yumiko’s disappearance and the Rabbits game itself hooks the listener and inspires curiosity. One comes back wanting answers, and while some questions do offer solutions, for a while, questions are forming faster than answers are being found. It’s a vicious and genius cycle that intrigues the listener and catches them in the best way possible; it makes the audience want to find Parker and assist her on her search. “Rabbits” asks its listeners to think, play along and be a little frightened and confused every so often. Of course, it isn’t perfect. There are a handful of voice actors that leave something to be desired, although most are one-off characters. The first couple episodes also contain a good amount of exposition, as is necessary with a story that has such a complicated game integrated into it. Once a listener gets through the exposition and slightly confusing explanation of ARGs, the podcast is a pure treasure. With season one ready for listening and season two in the works, there’s only one question left unanswered: “r u playing?”

UA Special Collections: Remembering the Protestant Reformation BY JESSE CAYLOR @DailyWildcat
From Aug. 7 to Dec. 22, the University Libraries’ Special Collections is displaying “Print and Propoganda in the Reformation,” an exhibit on the Protestant Reformation housed in the University of Arizona Main Library. The collection on display includes reformation materials, relevant artifacts and books that were printed within the first 50 years of the printing press. The story of reformation began with a young student named Martin Luther. Legend has it that on a dark and stormy night a bolt of lightning struck near Luther on his way to university. At that moment, he swore if he survived the incident he would drop everything in life and become a monk. After the lightning strike, and much to the dismay of his friends and family, Luther followed through with his oath and entered into St. Augustine’s Monastery. Luther spent many years in the church but soon came to find he had many disagreements with its theology. In his most famous moment, Luther is said to have nailed his “95 Theses” to the door of a church in Wittenberg. These theses laid out Luther’s arguments against the Catholic Church’s practice of selling indulgences. He believed that individuals have the ability to make their peace with God on their own without the intervention of a third party. As Luther sought to make his voice heard, he utilized mass production of books and pamphlets to spread his ideals. Broadsides were an efficient form of media with which to create his propaganda. On a single piece of paper a caricature of the pope was printed often, accompanied by a written critique of some aspect of the Catholic Church. Through these writings, written in German and easily available due to the printing press, Luther was able to amass a large following of
supporters from a wide range of classes. These initial publications by Luther sparked the beginning of the reformation, a period of internal conflict within the Catholic Church, ultimately leading to the creation of Protestantism. Unfortunately, debates between the various sides were not always civil, and many years of war extended beyond the reformation as Protestants and Catholics fought out their differences. Now in 2017, we are 500 years past the days of the reformation. However, the impact the reformation had on Europe and eventually the rest of the world is profound, in one way or another affecting many aspects of our lives. According to Special Collections associate librarian Roger Myers, the process of putting together the exhibit began around six months ago. He and professors Susan Karant-Nunn and Ute Lotz-Heumann began selecting texts from the Heiko Oberman library, a vast collection of books from Luther expert Heiko Oberman, who donated them upon his death. They also started compiling timelines for exhibits to help people understand the significance of the printing press. For those looking to dive even deeper into the Protestant Reformation, a series of talks have been scheduled around the UA campus. On Oct. 31, the 500th anniversary of Luther’s “95 Theses,” a panel of experts on Luther, will convene at the University Libraries Special Collections. For a full list of relevant events, visit the UA’s reformation programming website.

’Jacks lumber into town for season opener In the 2017 kickoff for both teams, NAU returns to Arizona Stadium for first the time since 2015, when Arizona dropped 77 points on the visiting Lumberjacks BY SAUL BOOKMAN @Saul_Bookman
NAU QUARTERBACK CASE COOKUS comes to Tucson for his 2017 debut on the watch list for both the Walter Payton Award and the College Football Performance Awards FCS National Performer of the Year Award after finishing 2016 as the nation’s most efficient FCS passer with a 184.70 passer efficiency rating. MICHAEL PATACSIL/ THE LUMBERJACK
T
he Northern Arizona University Lumberjacks come to Arizona Stadium for the first game of the 2017-18 season. The Lumberjacks last made an appearance in Tucson Sept. 19, 2015, where they gave up 77 points to the Wildcats en route to a 64-point loss. Arizona leads 13-1 in the all-time series, winning the last 12 in a row. The Lumberjacks highlight a passing attack that is led by quarterback Case Cookus. Cookus has been named to the Walter Payton Award and the College Football Performance Awards FCS National Performer of the Year watch list for this season. He was the most efficient passer in the country with a 184.70 passer efficiency rating. A season ago versus Arizona State University he completed 23 of 33 passes for 369 yards and a touchdown. Cookus tied his own school record for passing touchdowns in a game last season against New Mexico Highlands with seven. Cookus will look for a pair of senior receivers: Emmanuel Butler and Elijah Marks. Butler had over 1,000 yards receiving last season to go with nine touchdowns. Marks contributed seven touchdowns to go with 770 yards receiving a year ago. The Lumberjack passing attack is one of the best in the FCS, but after Cookus was injured four games into the season, NAU limped to a 5-6 record overall in the Big Sky Conference. It will test an Arizona secondary looking to redeem itself from a year ago when they were ranked 11th in the Pac-12 in pass defense. Senior Bowl watch list nominee Dane Cruikshank alongside Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, who was ranked as the top safety coming into the season for the Pac-12, will set the tone for Arizona. Freshman Scottie Young and redshirt freshman Lorenzo Burns are among a host of players on the defense looking to make an impact in their first season. NAU is led on defense by junior Jake Casteel. If that name sounds familiar, he is the son of former Arizona defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel. Jake had a combined 55 tackles last season, including
vs. Saturday, Sept. 2 Arizona Stadium | 8 p.m. 15 for loss and 8.5 sacks. The product of local Tucson Salpointe High School has solidified himself as one of the team’s best defenders in his third season. The Lumberjacks are undersized, as are most Football Championship Subdivision schools. This should make running the ball an easier task for Arizona. The Wildcats have their top returning rushers back in J.J. Taylor and Nick Wilson. Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez and company shouldn’t have a tough time running the ball this season. However, passing the ball will be what everyone keeps an eye on. Brandon Dawkins and Khalil Tate are the two quarterbacks ahead of everyone on the depth chart, though a starter has yet to be determined. Rodriguez has said that Tate has done everything he can to catch up to the more experienced Dawkins, but hasn’t intimated whether he has. Dawkins returns to Arizona after having an up-anddown year by most estimations. Dawkins was effective on the ground, rushing for nearly 1,000 yards last season. However, his pass efficiency was inconsistent, completing only 54 percent of his passes for eight touchdowns and six interceptions in ten games played. Tate was the starter for one game last year, versus USC, but in that game he showed his inexperience and struggled. Tate was 7-for-18 passing for 58 yards and one interception before being pulled for tight end Matt Morin at quarterback. The freshman did show glimpses of his talent, especially against UCLA when he ran for 83 yards and completed 5-for-9 passes for 72 yards and two touchdowns. Tate also showcases a strong arm and big size at the quarterback position. Rodriguez is entering his sixth year as Arizona head coach. He has a combined record of 111-77 in division one, which includes his 36-29 record at Arizona. The Wildcats are coming off a 3-9 season, the worst during the Rodriguez era. Prior to 2016, Arizona reached bowl games in four consecutive seasons, highlighted

Volleyball ready to serve in Cactus Classic BY NOAH AUCLAIR @noahauclair
Arizona volleyball will be in action this weekend hosting the Cactus Classic at its home-opener in McKale Center. The University of Arizona will go head-to-head with Eastern Kentucky, Grand Canyon University and Radford University. The Wildcats are coming off of a 2-1 start to the season after defeating East Tennessee State, 3-1 in the LUV Invitational in Nashville, Tenn. Following the match against the Bucs, Arizona dropped its first match of the season against Lipscomb, 1-3. Arizona earned another win shortly after against Middle Tennessee, 3-0. During the match against Eastern Tennessee, junior outside hitter Kendra Dahlke posted 17 kills and three blocks. Dahlke will be a star player this season as she already leads the team with 33 kills and 37 points. Sophomore setter Julia Patterson posted four kills and one block to go with her 41 assists. Over the Wildcats’ first three matches, Patterson has already posted 111 assists to go with nine kills and 31 digs.
Senior middle blocker, Jade Turner, posted six kills on eight error-free swings along with four blocks against Middle Tennessee, while redshirt freshman outside hitter Elizabeth Shelton tied for the team lead with a career record of six kills, while adding two blocks. “Right now we’re just trying to figure out who’s going to be able to do what. We’re just trying to figure out the lineup right now, but we had some people play well this weekend,” said Arizona head coach Dave Rubio according to Arizona Athletics. Eastern Kentucky comes into the weekend with a record of 2-1. Over its first three games, Colonel senior Nikki Drost has a total 35 kills with 16 of those coming from a match against California State University Northridge. Both GCU and Radford come into Tucson posting 3-0 records, with both teams only losing one set a piece in their respective tournaments. For GCU, freshman Claire Kovensky put up 45.5 points through the first three games, averaging 4.14 points per set. Radford senior Maddie Palmer has posted 39.5 points through the first three. The Wildcats will take on Eastern Kentucky Friday, Sept. 1 at 12:30 p.m.

Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. at Arizona Stadium Saturday, Sept. 2.

Court named new interim gymnastics head coach After spending the past 19 years as the gymnastics assistant coach, John Court steps up after Tabitha Yim leaves for Stanford BY SYRENA TRACY @syrena_tracy
Arizona gymnastics coach John Court has been named interim head coach for the upcoming 2017-18 season after Tabitha Yim accepted a head coaching position at Stanford University. Due to Court’s many years working with the GymCats on vault and floor exercise, he was the logical choice. “I love coach Tabitha, and if she did not retain me two years ago I wouldn’t be in this position, personal or professionally,” Court said. “So I owe that to her because she had that choice at that time.” Serving as the GymCats recruiting coordinator as well as being the assistant coach for 19 years, Court assisted the team in extending its streak to 31-consecutive NCAA regional appearances as well as a trip to the 2002 NCAA Championships. Court has also received the 2007 and 2012 South Central Regional Assistant Coach of the Year. “Head coaching in general has always been a goal,” Court said. “After being the head coach for three years in Vermont you learn from everybody. You learn things that are great to do and things you don’t want to do as well.” Prior to Arizona, Court was an assistant coach at the University of Vermont for five years and head coach for the last three years. Before going to Vermont, Court was an assistant coach alongside his mother Jackie Court who was a head coach for 33 years. Court learned many lessons working not only alongside his mother but also by competing against her. “With her, it wasn’t about the X’s and O’s, it was about the student-athletes and dealing with people. How to be positive and listen, and knowing how to fight,” Court said. Arizona has always been special to Court

and has grown to be a part of him. He said he hopes that he can stay at Arizona for as long as possible. Court gives a lot of credit to the athletics department and how it has evolved over the past two decades. “Watching the program grow has made us more competitive as an athletic department and also for the gymnastics team,” Court
said. “I have always felt that [the athletics department] have always been good to me here. We have a fantastic coaching staff and are in the process of hiring a new coach. We have a great support staff here that helps the gymnastics team.” The Arizona gymnastics season is still some time away, but the GymCats will be starting
official workouts next week in preparation. “We knew as a staff that last year could’ve been better. We devised a plan, and the new plan is really about the process including accountability and clearer lines of communication,” Court. “It’s not about me; it’s about us, and we are all going to take the journey together.”
