of​ ​data.”

The report states that UA undergraduates made approximately $3,000 less in median wages than the other two Arizona universities’ undergraduates. However, UA students with graduate degrees made approximately $2,000 more than the other two Arizona universities’ graduate students.

These statistics may not be as alarming for UA students as they seem.

The way in which the University of Arizona funds lobbying efforts was the subject of a recent report by the Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting, which specifically targeted the UA Foundation.

The UA has a state relations team, whose primary job is to oversee government and community relations between the university and the state legislature.

“We work at the direction of the leadership of the university and the Arizona Board of Regents to promote the agenda of the university or, a better word would be, the priorities of the university at the state capitol,” said Tim Bee, vice president of Government and Community Relations at the UA. All three in-state universities are governed by the board, which in charge of what the universities lobby for at the state legislature.

“The board approves a legislative agenda for the public university system, which aligns with its mission to provide opportunity for learning, discovery, research, public service and economic development for Arizona residents and the global community,” said Sarah Harper, vice president of communications for the board. “The board also sets expectations for all university lobbyists regarding engagement with lawmakers, executive staff and other stakeholders.”

The UA has three full-time lobbyists on staff to help advance this agenda. It has also enlisted Molera Alvarez, LLC., a government affairs firm that has represented the UA since 2003, according to state lobbying records.

“Historically, they have worked to represent us with health science initiatives,” Bee said. “This year will be the first year that they are working

Remembering Bakari

BY ZACHARY OGDEN @DailyWildcat

Family and friends of Bakari Henderson gathered at the McClelland Hall courtyard to celebrate his life with a candlelight vigil Friday night, Oct. 27 in at the University of Arizona.

Bakari graduated from the UA in May with a Bachelor of Science degree in business finance and entrepreneurship.

In July, he went to the Greek island of Zakynthos to work on a photo shoot to launch his own clothing line.

On July 7, he went to a bar and was later killed by a group of men. Jill Henderson, Bakari’s mother, started planning the candlelight vigil six weeks ago. She flew in from Texas on Thursday with her husband and two other children to attend the event.

Bakari’s favorite color was purple, and the vigil was decorated accordingly. The tree in the center of the courtyard was lit by a vibrant, purple light and everyone was given a purple wristband inscribed with “In Loving Memory Of Bakari Henderson 7-7-17.”

“The idea with the wristbands is for when you are traveling, [you] take a picture and post it on the ‘Travel with Bakari’ Facebook page so that his love for travel and adventure will live on,” Jill said.

An open letter from the Henderson family stated that their goal was to keep Bakari’s story alive. The wristbands are one of the projects his family has worked on, but Jill said it holds special significance.

“It is actually further than that, it is more of a legacy for him,” she said.

The release of Bakari’s first clothing design is also in the works. “We are totally going off of the notes that we saw in Bakari’s laptop,” Jill said. “He laid a

good foundation.”

The Henderson family has also set up a prayer line for Bakari Henderson led by the family’s pastor, Ricky Jones.

To participate, one can call (641) 5529241 at 7 p.m. and use the access code: 793205.

The candlelight vigil had four speakers: two friends, a UA lecturer and a local pastor.

Adam Lambert, one of Bakari’s friends, remembered the impact Bakari had on his life.

“Bakari had a core ideal that you had nothing to lose by trying new experiences,” Lambert said.

That bit of wisdom later pushed Lambert to conquer his fear of falling from heights, as he eventually went bungee jumping.

Another friend, Kevin Edwards, praised Bakari’s uplifting spirit. In particular, he remembered one of the last things Bakari said to him, after a series of missed shots during a basketball session.

“Just keep shooting.”

Edwards said those words will stick with him for the rest of his life.

“Bakari had a presence. When he would walk into a classroom, he didn’t have to say anything, but I knew he was there,” Mark Peterson, one of Bakari’s lecturers, said.

The vigil was full of emotion. Many cried, and gentle laughs were heard after stories were exchanged.

After the candles were lit and the final prayer was over, many alumni who knew Bakari took turns approaching his parents. It’s evident that he meant a lot to many people.

“He loved the Wildcat community,” said Jill Henderson. “So we are just honored to be able to come back to a place he remembered so fondly.”

Around 15 penitentiary inmates from an Arizona prison complex in Tucson are now attending writing and literary courses, thanks to Prison Instruction to Change Minds, a recent outreach initiative of University of Arizona’s English Department.

PRISM, which is changing its name from The Prison Education Project, provides education to incarcerated individuals in the Tucson area, raising awareness of social justice issues on the local and national level, based on the belief that education is a right for all people.

The project’s mission, according to the English department’s website, is to help improve students’ critical thinking and comprehension skills, gain rhetoric awareness and engage with readings to reflect on their lives and hopes for the future.

“Part of the overall purpose of the program is to reach out to a community that is underserved and give them a sense of purpose—that they are doing something constructive with their time,” said Marcia Klotz, project director and assistant professor in the department of English. “There is something profound about having that kind of interaction, being able to come into a group that has such a deep appreciation for what you are able to help them with.”

Two faculty members and 11 graduate students are currently teaching at the Whetstone Unit in the Arizona State Prison Complex on Wilmont Road every Wednesday morning.

This fall course, which began Oct. 4, is not for academic credit. Participants are instead awarded certifications of completion.

“I would love to have these classes count for credit,” Klotz said. “That’s the long-term goal.”

Prisoners who have a high school diploma or a General Educational Development certificate are eligible to register for the project’s classes.

in September, based on Arizona Department of Corrections’ Institutional Capacity and Committed Population records. As of last month, 2,230 of them meet the PRISM qualification within Whetstone and Catalina facilities combined.

According to Correctional Officer Melanie Yubeta, Whetstone currently accommodates 1,198 prisoners.

Bryan A. Smith, a UA psychology graduate of Fall 2012, is a mitigation specialist for the Pima County Public Defender’s Office and a former inmate.

In addition to Smith’s attempted robbery conviction in 1982, under California’s felony-murder rule, he was also charged with second-degree murder and attempted murder.

During Smith’s imprisonment at San Quentin State Prison, in which he served almost 26 years of a life sentence, the 55-year-old earned an Associate of Arts Degree in 2003 from Patten University through Prison University Project, the state’s education outreach organization.

“I grew up in a lower middle-class working family,” Smith said. “I’m the fourth out of five children and I was the first to get a college degree.”

According to Smith, many incarcerated individuals felt, or feel, academically inadequate and “that college is not for them.” Since he, too, was under this perception before and during imprisonment, Smith conducts local motivational talks to help inmates understand that their beliefs about their academic abilities are not accurate.

“Growing up, I never thought I’d be able to get a higher education,” Smith said. “But I realized at some point that, ‘I’m going to graduate. I’m going to get a degree.’ This energized my future and opened up my world.”

Barbara Martinsons, a Tucson winter resident who leads a women’s prison project in upstate New York, donated over $25,000 to the university’s English department earlier this year to jumpstart PRISM. Martinsons shares the project team’s passion for advancing

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

We should have the right to boycott Israel

BY ARIEL TINNEY PHD CANDIDATE SCHOOL OF GOVERNMMENT AND PUBLIC POLICY

R

ecently, the Arizona Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) sued Kansas for a law targeting supporters of a boycott against Israel, a law Arizona also adopted in 2016 (HB2617). Arizona and Kansas’ laws force individuals or businesses who contract with the state to sign a clause not to boycott Israel.

Now, nearly 70 years after the founding of Israel, displaced Palestinians make up a disproportionate percent of refugees worldwide. The forced exodus continues as West Bank settlements expand onto farmland seized from Palestinians. Those still living in the occupied territory are separated from each other by a racially segregating apartheid wall that extends far beyond the 1967 border. While residents of the West Bank spend hours getting through checkpoints, those in Gaza are trapped in what locals refer to as “the world’s largest open-air prison.”

Gazans live with only four hours of electricity a day and little to no access to drinking water.

So far, diplomatic talks have failed to

produce fair or productive solutions.

It’s unrealistic to address a problem when one party confiscates homes and land while simultaneously conducting a constant siege of the other party.

For this reason, Palestinian civil society organizations called for a nonviolent, widespread boycott movement against Israel. The goals of the boycott are to: (1) End the occupation and colonization of the West Bank, Golan Heights and Gaza, and to dismantle the wall. (2) Recognize full equality of the rights of Palestinian citizens of Israel (20 percent of Israelis). (3) Recognize the rights of Palestinian refugees to return.

An increasing number of organizations are joining the boycott of Israel, including churches, Jewish organizations and academic associations. To suppress the right to boycott, 21 state governments adopted laws that violate our right to oppose state-sponsored violence.

The ACLU rightly classifies this as an infringement of our right to free speech.

As a Jewish woman living in the United States, I believe I have the right to follow my conscience and question certain political actions by the state of Israel, and then boycott them because of that. Those who believe in the protection of our first-amendment rights must demand that Arizona legislators repeal this restrictive law.

Wildcat because the people make it one of the best work environments. I’m glad to have the privilege of being a part of this newspaper. Everyone was patient, when I was learning the ins and outs of editing and have taught me so much over time.

It has been an exciting adventure and one I can’t wait to continue. Bear down!

DEGREE VALUE FROM PAGE A1

“In general, wages are higher in the Phoenix metropolitan area than in Tucson,” said Julie Newberg, director of communications for the board. “And in general, wages in the Tucson metropolitan area are higher than in the rural counties of Arizona, so where a student looks for employment has an impact on earnings.”

The variation between wages of students from the UA and the other two Arizona universities is caused more by the location of work than the university the student graduated from. ​So why​ ​is​ ​the number​ ​between​ ​graduates​ ​and​ ​ high​ ​school​ ​graduates​ ​so​ ​different?​ ​Anderson explained​ ​that​ ​for​ ​many​ ​jobs​ ​in​ ​today’s​ ​world,​ ​a​ ​ college​ ​degree​ ​is​ ​required.​ ​“​Independence​ ​in​ ​positions​ ​require​ ​more​ ​than​ ​ a​ ​high​ ​school​ ​education,​ ​and [they also require]​ ​ good communication​ ​skills — ​those​ ​kind​ ​of​ ​ qualities​ ​you​ ​get​ ​in​ ​college​ ​students,” Anderson said. “Employers​ ​pay​ ​for productivity​ ​and​ ​higher​ ​ efficiency​ ​for​ ​the​ ​wages​ ​they​ ​give​ ​out.”

This report also includes information

on employment rates of graduates and undergraduates from the Arizona universities.

The report states: “For resident undergraduates, nearly 75 percent are employed following graduation. ... For resident graduate students, over 72 percent are employed following graduation.”

While the increased earnings are already an encouragement to attend and graduate from an Arizona university, a Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce report estimates that by 2020, 68 percent of all jobs in Arizona will require some form of postsecondary education.

Veterinary science senior ​Cindy​​Chon ​gave​​ an​ ​inside​ ​perspective​ ​on​ ​why​ ​she​ ​believes she​ ​ wouldn’t​ ​be​ ​able​ ​to​ ​accomplish​ ​her​ ​occupation​ ​ with​ ​only​ ​a​ ​high​ ​school​ ​education:​ ​ “​In most​ ​high​ ​schools,​ ​I​ ​feel​ ​like​ ​they​ ​don’t​ ​ offer​ ​programs​ ​or​ ​classes​ ​involving​ ​veterinary​ ​ science and​ a​ ​lot​ ​of​ ​different​ ​fields,” she said. ​“So​ ​ you​ ​get​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​more​ ​specific​ ​for​ ​what​ ​you​ ​want​ ​to​ ​ do​ ​instead​ ​of​ ​this broad​ ​education​ ​that​ ​you​ ​get​ ​in​ ​ high​ ​school,​ ​and​ ​I​ ​think​ ​that​ ​really​ ​does​ ​make​ ​a​ ​ difference​ ​in​ ​the job​ ​you​ ​want​ ​to​ ​do.”

The Daily Wildcat • A5

UA student elected president of College Democrats of America

Joseline Mata is a political science major here at the University of Arizona, as well as the youngest member of the executive board for the Democratic Party. She represents the College Democrats of America on the board after being elected president in Las Vegas this October at its national convention.

BY RANDALL ECK @reck999

Daily Wildcat reporter Randall Eck interviewed Mata. They discussed her road to office, her goals for the next year, and the role of youth in politics. Their interview was edited for clarity.

Daily Wildcat: How did you get involved in politics and the Democratic Party?

Joseline Mata: The second semester of my freshman year, I was elected president of the UA Young Democrats. Through that, I started getting more involved in state politics and began interning for the Pima County Democratic Party and getting involved in my local legislative district.

I served as chapter president for three semesters until I was elected president of our state organization.

Prior to being elected national president of the College Democrats of America, I also served as their national development director.

DW:What is the role of College Democrats within the Democratic Party?

JM: Our main focus is youth engagement across college campuses. Not just universities, but also community colleges. College students are always a hard target because they are such a transient community.

Yet, we have been successful in various states and are working to unite our methodologies and focus on making engagement a larger part of our program.

biggest organizing organizations, and they do not have a seat at the table in the DNC. The High School Democrats are how I started out my activism and I helped start my chapter back in my senior year of high school. To me it’s an embarrassment.

DW: Is it normal for the President of the College Democrats to be from a red state?

JM: My vice president Calvin Wilborn is out of Auburn University. So, we are two red states, which is a huge shift.

To me this makes sense; we have been treading water for a very long time in not very pro-democrat states and have managed not to sink. It is that kind of change in leadership we need right now to push us forward.

DW: What is the role of young people in politics and the Democratic Party?

JM:I hate when people say “you are the future of the party” because we are not. The reality is that the boots on the ground, the people knocking on the doors, often times are youth. We are the people who are the makeup of campaign staff, of policy staff.

That is the reality. By 2022, we will overcome baby boomers as the largest voting block in the US. We have an important role to play. I do not think people realize, right now, the power of our voice and our vote.

It is hard when we are struggling with college tuition costs and having to work multiple jobs but I think the role of young people right now is to remind each other that our voice matters.

and into these positions. Until you do, there will not be much of a change.

DW: What are your plans for after graduation, perhaps a run for political office yourself?

JM: There are two main focuses I want to bring to the Democratic National Committee’s attention. First, the DNC has unpaid internships. To say that we are the party of labor, the party of the people and to not be paying our interns, not even a small stipend, is an embarrassment to me.

Second, I want to point out the fact that currently the High School Democrats of America are one of our

JM: I think that being so far from DC it is so easy for students to think that there is not really a place for us in politics. That is really just not the case. We really do need to start pushing more youth, especially our age, to get involved.

I am one of the youngest elected party officials in the entire country as a vice-chair of the state party, and I am not alone. You just have to put yourself out there

JM: I am planning on staying in Arizona through the next election cycle, continuing my work with both our state party and a congressional race. After that, I need a vacation.

I haven’t taken one since 2012. I see myself continuing my work within the party structure not running for political office. Truly, the work I find the most empowering and worthwhile is finding those people who have never thought about themselves in leadership positions and encouraging them to run. I want to build other people up and send them off on their journeys.

PRISON EDUCATION

veterans during a preliminary 10-week course at Whetstone’s “Regaining Honor” subdivision.

After Lucey and Klotz circulated an informal signup sheet within Whetstone for spring and fall 2017 enrollment, the team reluctantly decided to cap acceptance to less than 20 participants each term.

“We would like to expand [the program],” Klotz said. “There’s a lot more interest than we are able to accommodate.”

PRISM plans to enlarge the spectrum of educational opportunities for inmates next semester by inviting

any retired, or current, UA faculty to guest lecture for a day. According to the team, the intention is to expose the men at Whetstone to a range of available college classes, in case they choose to pursue college upon release.

“The reason why I am an activist for education in a prison system is because it is a very strong activity for personal transformation,” Smith said. “Taking those preparatory classes, getting the individual help, seeing my peers do it and the environment [all] helped me grow to learn about myself.”

Why Do People Drunk Text?

THX 4 texting me last night.

U changed my life :-) I’ll move my stuff in after class. BTW, I LUV U 2!!!

Committing a TUI (Texting Under the Influence) can cause any college student a massive amount of regret.

Just when you thought you were finally over the breakup, your careless TUIs to your ex during last night’s party reopened the wounds and restarted the drama. You stare at your drunk texts and cringe. Most of the words are misspelled; your intent comes out sloppy, embarrassing, and both pushy and desperate. And, really... should any adult person use that many kissie-face emoticons? You’ve abandoned cute and entered into creepy. Worst of all, now you have to deal with the aftermath of your drunk texts. <sigh> The effect of excessive alcohol on your brain’s limbic system and frontal lobes played a significant part in why you got overly emotional and started drunk texting. The limbic system controls emotions and memory. As alcohol

I texted U? Oh, S#*@!

affects this system, exaggerated states of emotion (anger, aggressiveness, withdrawal, mood swings) and memory loss may occur. Additionally, as people reach a BAC above .06, judgment becomes impaired, and at .08 BAC, people are more likely to do things they would not do when sober. A 120 lb. female needs only slightly more than two standard drinks to reach a .08 BAC. A 140 lb. male could get to .08 BAC by consuming three and a half standard drinks.

You might be able to download apps that have features to reduce drunk texting. But, the root of the problem isn’t your gizmo, it’s your consumption.

The easiest way to avoid TUIs is to moderate your drinking.

In closing, we offer two sound pieces of texting advice: If your feelings are real, share them sober. And, friends don’t let friends text drunk.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SPEAKS with supporters at a campaign rally at the Prescott Valley Event Center in Prescott Valley, Ariz.

Trump: No UNESCO What does this mean for Tucson, the City of Gastronomy

BY VICTOR GARCIA @VicGarcia96

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization promotes awareness of internationally significant cultural and natural heritage, and supports collaborations between member countries and cities.

The United States’ membership status in UNESCO has recently changed since the Trump administration decided to pull out of the program on Oct. 12, leaving some questions as to Tucson’s status as an internationally recognized food destination.

“When the Trump administration announced it was pulling out of UNESCO, it is not entirely clear what this meant, since the U.S. already was not a full member of UNESCO, and was not funding it,” said David Pietz, appointed to UNESCO chair on Environmental History in 2015.

“The move seems to reinforce the ‘America First’ agenda that argues that the U.S. should not continue to compromise its complete autonomy of action by virtue of being a party of international agreements and consortia.”

According to Pietz, this conference is where faculty, indigenous peoples experts, community members and international scientists engaged in dialogue around food systems and agricultural water management that incorporated traditional knowledge, academic science and citizen science.

“Tucson was named a UNESCO City of Gastronomy in 2015 as part of the UNESCO Creative City Network,” Pietz said. “UA’s College of Social and Behavioral Sciences leveraged the designation to host the City of Gastronomy conference ‘Food & Water in Arid Lands: Dialogues across Contemporary and Traditional

Knowledge’ in November 2016.”

The UA is a partner institution with the International Center for Integrated Water Resource Management, hosted and managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

“The International Center for Integrated Water Resource Management is designated as a UNESCO Category 2 Water Center that is part of the UNESCO-International Hydrological Program,” Pietz siad. “The UA water researchers collaborate in joint projects focuses on sustainable development and sound water management policies, particularly in arid and semi-arid climates.”

Robert Varady, a research professor of environmental policy, said that “even after the withdrawal, and through recent UNESCO designations of new World Heritage Sites and Creative Cities in the U.S. Participation has also continued unofficially, via individual and institutional arrangements such as the ones we have at the UA.” “The UA was recently ranked number three worldwide in research and policy work on water resources among more than 27,000 universities,” Varady said.

“The various interactions our faculty have had with UNESCO have been very supportive of diversity and have helped publicize and feature the UA’s expertise, especially in water resources.”

John Paul Jones III, dean of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences at UA, said he doesn’t see changes coming soon.

“I think the Tucson City of Gastronomy will continue to work with other cities in the Creative Cities Network and with UNESCO people in much the same way as it has before,” he said.

“I don’t see much change – and I think that’s true of other US-based Creative Cities designated by UNESCO.”

he Republican party of today is an entirely different beast than ever before.

Simultaneously ascendant and on the verge of civil war, GOP leaders have not been in such unexplored waters for decades.

It’s easy to point to the election of Donald Trump and the ensuing rallying of formerly “never-Trumpers” back into the fold for the sake of political cohesion, but the dedication to Trump’s personal hand in the Houses of Congress is reaching new heights.

Presidents are known to “crack the whip” once they become inaugurated in order to put every government branch on the same page of policy goals and standardize the agenda. This is not unique to President Trump, and in fact, back in 2001, this policy of party cohesion under President George W. Bush sparked the desertion of Jim Jeffords, a man who represented the slowly dying moderate wing of the Republican party. But with the announcement of Jeff Flake’s and Bob Corker’s semi-forced retirements and the continual personal attacks on GOP party establishment members, Trump’s approach is more blunt, heavy-handed and public.

Back in 2015, when President Trump was still only candidate Trump, he made a sharp condemnation of John McCain, who had avoided endorsing him or his policies in the primary. Trump took shots at his wartime service and experience as a prisoner of war for five-and-a-half years saying, “He’s not a war hero. He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”

The comment drew the intense ire of fellow senators and congressmen, but it seemed to do nothing to stop the controversy-laden Trump train heading to the White House.

Even further, once Trump was inaugurated, the open disagreement within the ranks boiled over, with Senator Jeff Flake (R-Arizona) writing and publishing an article in Politico calling the election of Trump part of a Republican “Faustian bargain.” He went even further and announced that his election was not worth the repudiation of traditional Republican convictions. Senator Bob Corker (R-Tennessee) said Trump was exhibiting the same “erratic” traits as Kim Jong Un, in response to his Trump’s hawkish and halfstructured foreign policy in North Korea.

The response was immediate, with Trump calling Bob Corker “Liddle’ Bob Corker” and Trump allies jumping down Flake’s throat almost immediately. Most interesting was senatorial candidate Kelli Ward’s denouncement of Flake’s decision not to support Trump in the primaries as “treacherous.”

It’s this firebrand style of repudiating all Republicans who refuse to toe the party line

that is the most destructive to the long-term health of the party. While both Flake and Corker may represent specifically anti-Trump leadership in the caucus, their ability to listen to Republicans who hold similar views is extremely valuable to the health of a national party made of different groups of people.

When Jeffords left the Republican party in 2001, he said, “Given the changing nature of the national party, it has become a struggle for our leaders to deal with me and for me to deal with them.” This is a sign of a changing time in Washington, as conservative Republicans elected in 1996 during the Republican Revolution were solidifying their total control over the party and its ambitions.

But while party unity can accomplish great things and pass laws desperately needed without unnecessary changes to appease different wings of each ideological tent, a monolithic party is an unresponsive one.

Republicans and Democrats are capable of answering the pleas of Americans exactly because a Democrat in Arizona would be very different from one in New York; each has the opinions and experiences of their respective constituents.

Blue Dog Democrats — moderate-toconservative Democrats who agree with general left-of center policies but buck orthodox environmental policy, tax reform, immigration or gun rights — attract voters who would never be caught dead checking the box next to Nancy Pelosi on election day.

Once numbering more than 50 members, the Blue Dog Caucus is now only at 18 members.

They watch in distaste at the growing influence of the Bernie Sanders wing of the party, much like many Americans who were attracted to the anti-establishment tenor of Trump but who may find his more conservative policies not in their interest.

Just as Democrats attempting to unify Democrats around a left-progressive banner following 2008 left their moderate and right wings out in the cold, Trump’s attempt to force out all non-compliant members of his party threatens the ability of the Republicans to adapt once another political shift comes.

With more holdouts from other wings and ideological foundations, political groups can rally faster in the face of electoral defeat and approach crises with a more broad and less heavy-handed focus.

While Trump may be the party leader for now, he won’t always be. And just as any attempt by Barack Obama to solidify his ideology as the backbone of the Democratic Party doomed any unpopular incumbent during the midterm elections, President Trump might be surprised to find one day that his brand no longer carries the same weight in Republican voters, and his party might be dangerously unprepared once that time comes.

with us on the entire university package.”

However, the UA does not pay Molera Alvarez to act on their behalf. Instead, the UA Foundation pays Molera Alvarez to act on behalf of the UA. Founded in 1958, the UA Foundation is a separate, but affiliated, organization from the university.

“The UA Foundation is a separate 501(c) (3) from the organization that has the specific charge of raising funds for supporting the institution,” said Liz Warren-Pederson, assistant vice president of Marketing and Communications for the UA Foundation.

The UA Foundation is also in charge of stewarding the funds they raise through endowment and asset management, Pederson said, and claims to manage a $673 million endowment.

Its status as a non-profit allows for one advantage when it comes to taxes.

“501 (c)(3) is a category of the tax code that organizations can apply for where they are tax exempt and contributions to them may be tax deductible,” said Abby Levine, the director of the Bolder Advocacy program for Alliance of Justice.

Within the non-prfoit category of the tax code, there are two different types of organizations.

“There are organizations that are considered to be public charities, then there are what are considered to be private foundations,” Levine said. “And, the difference tends to be where the organization’s funding comes from.”

Public charities tend to receive funding from a broader scope of people, said Levine. Private foundations tend to have a smaller pool of support.

Another difference between public charities and private foundations are guidelines set for lobbying.

“Public charities can lobby under fairly generous limits,” Levine said. “Private foundations are subject to more prohibitive taxes that they spend on lobbying.”

There are two ways that public charities measure their limits on lobbying, said Levine.

They can use the 501(h) expenditure test or the substantial part test—the expenditure test being more generous and clear.

Tax filings show that the UA Foundation uses the 501 (h) expenditure test, which allows the foundation to not jeopardize its non-profit status. Under this test, the limit on lobbying expenditures is $1 million.

“Depending on what definition we’re using, there are a lot of nuances in terms of it,” Levine said. “But, essentially, lobbying is trying to influence a ballot measure or a piece of legislation.”

The UA Foundation’s annual 990 form for fiscal year 2015-2016 shows it gave $75,000 to Let’s Vote Yes for Arizona Schools, a movement that supported ballot measure Proposition 123.

Campaign filings from the movement with the Arizona Secretary of State’s office show the money given in March of 2016.

The UA Foundation also gave $250,000 to Yes on 100, a movement that supported Proposition 100 in 2010, according to the movement’s second pre-special election

campaign finance report.

“One thing that all 501 (c)(3)s can’t do, is that they cannot support or oppose candidates for public office,” said Levine. “That’s something that’s sort of separate from what counts as lobbying... all 501 (c)(3)s are absolutely prohibited from supporting or opposing [candidates].”

There are certain rules that the university follows that do not apply to the UA Foundation, which allows the university to hire contract lobbyists by proxy. The foundation is not an organization that the Board of Regents governs.

“Recent changes to the statute prohibit the use of tax-payer dollars to fund university lobbying,” Harper said. “As the foundation is a private, separately organized 501(c)(3) organization, the board cannot direct the foundation’s actions.”

Arizona Statute prohibits the board of regents or any university under its jurisdiction from using state general fund money for hiring lobbying services. This law does not apply to the universities foundations, because they are technically separate entities from the universities they serve.

“It would be that we are contracting with a company at the university’s request,” said Pederson. “And the university sets its priorities for that.”

Public opinion on tax-payer money is one reason the UA would decide to hire contract lobbyists through its foundation.

“As a state institution, state dollars and tuition dollars should be funding that type of activity, which is why the foundation can step in,” said Pederson.

However, the UA Foundation carries more leeway with disclosure laws. This also serves as a reason that donors give to the UA through the foundation.

“Often times donors wish for their gifts to remain anonymous for a variety of reasons,” Pederson said. “And so, they feel that we as the foundation can steward their personal data and personal financial information more effectively than a direct donation to the university.”

The UA — along with Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, and the board of regents — are public bodies.

Under state law, they are required to disclose anyone representing them at the state capitol.

“A public body is required to disclose the name of each lobbyist retained by or representing the public body, A.R.S. 411232.01(A)(3),” said Eric Spencer, the director of Election Services with the secretary of state, in an email.

“Thus, regardless of who pays for a lobbyist,” Spencer continued, “a public body that knowingly receives the benefit of lobbying services is required to disclose that lobbyist’s identity in the public body’s registration.”

The UA has registered its lobbyists, including Molera Alavarez, which is paid for by UA Foundation. As of Oct. 26, state lobbying records show that the UA has seven active lobbyists references on staff.

The UA Foundation is only legally required to disclose the amount that goes towards lobbying on their annual 990 forms, which the foundation does. They also provide supplementary information on how that money was used.

of every opportunity,” McGill said.

“Participate in school programs. Take the math and science classes, because if you have those foundations, it prepares you for higher education and any opportunities that might come your way.”

And opportunities aren’t lacking in STEM, according to McGill.

“There are tons of opportunities, and no better time than today to be involved in any kind of STEM career,” McGill said.

“There’s a high demand for people in this field, and there will be for decades.”

Even if traditional STEM careers aren’t appealing, McGill encouraged young people to explore their interests, as there’s likely a STEM career to match it.

“Anybody could find their passion in STEM, because in STEM there’s so much you can do,” McGill said. “Now, there are so many choices. Just get exposed to it. Even if your don’t end up in a STEM

With so many opportunities and options, McGill said it’s important to have a life outside of work, too. She said she likes to spend time outdoors with her family to relax.

“We just try to enjoy this great environment we live in, here in Southern Arizona, and that’s important,” McGill said. “Even though we work hard here, everyone has a lot going on outside of work, so we don’t ever want to forget that.”

Overall, McGill said the one message she wants people to get is that there are opportunities and enjoyment to be found in STEM fields.

“I’ve had so much satisfaction and I would hate for anybody else to lose out on that experience,” McGill said. “Get involved — the younger, the better.”

Going ‘beyond the bikini’ UA Sarver Heart Center hosted luncheon taking a deeper look at women’s health

BY CHANDLER DONALD @Chandlerjdonald

The University of Arizona Sarver Heart Center organized the Heart of Women’s Health luncheon Friday, Nov. 3, at the Skyline Country Club. A panel of speakers addressed women’s heart health and the importance of going “beyond the bikini.”

One of the two featured speakers at this event was Elizabeth Juneman, associate professor of medicine at the UA College of Medicine. Juneman has a special interest in the relationship between women and heart disease.

The second speaker was Khadijah Breathett, assistant professor of medicine at the UA. She conducts population research focusing on race and gender disparities in health care among patients with heart disease.

The moderator of this event was Nancy Sweitzer, professor of medicine, chief of cardiology and director at the UA Sarver Heart Center.

One of the main topics the speakers addressed was going “beyond the bikini.”

“Much of women’s health care, especially for younger women — age 20 plus — focuses on a woman’s reproductive organs and breast cancer screening,” Juneman said. “Yet one out of three women in the United States will die from heart disease each year, compared to one in 32 who will die from breast cancer.”

Breathett said this issue has not been in the forefront of women’s health in the past.

“Historically, heart disease wasn’t seen as a woman’s issue, [but] we now know this is outdated thinking,” Breathett said. “Despite increases in awareness, only 45 percent of women recognize that heart disease is their number-one killer.”

While Juneman and her colleagues said they believe it is important to screen for breast cancer, they feel that screening for heart disease is a matter of life and death, even for young women, and is often overlooked.

This luncheon also featured some very different stories about heart health, according to Katie Maass, director of communications and public education at the UA Sarver Heart Center. “[When] McKenzie Meza was five days old, she underwent open-heart surgery and was treated by surgeons and cardiologists at UA Sarver Heart Center

who saved her life,” Maass said. “Today, she is thriving as a senior at Salpointe Catholic High School, where she is on the volleyball team.”

Meza, who was accepted into the UA class of 2022 and given the Wildcat Excellence award, shared her story at the luncheon to illustrate the importance of heart health.

She was joined by Wanda Moore, who is the head of the UA Sarver Heart Center Community Coalition for Heart Health Education.

“As an African American woman ...

Wanda Moore is very aware that she is in one of the highest risk groups of dying from heart disease,” Maass said.

“Despite her healthy, active lifestyle, she developed coronary artery disease and had to have bypass surgery in 2015.”

Additionally, Sweitzer presented the Mary Anne Fay Heart Health Advocate Award to the founder of the UA Sarver Heart Center Women’s Heart Health Education Committee, Gordon Ewy, director emeritus of the UA Sarver Heart Center and professor emeritus of the UA College of Medicine.

Maass said that the UA Sarver Heart Center has a 13-year track record of educating women about the importance of heart health.

This event allowed the community and faculty to work together to promote awareness of this disease. Breathett said heart disease takes the life of one woman every minute and 19 seconds.

That totals 399,189 deaths per year.

“Patients can improve their health if they are willing to modify lifestyle, get regular check-ups, know [their] numbers, control blood pressure and cholesterol, reduce blood sugar, eat better, lose weight, get active and stop smoking,” Breathett said. “Be your own advocate. If you have heart disease, form a partnership with your provider to manage your heart disease.”

Overall, the goal of this event was to raise awareness and to give women the knowledge they need to advocate for their health.

“We want women to be aware that one out of three are likely to die from heart disease and that their sex and race may place them at increased risk of experiencing disparities in the health care system,” Breathett said. “We want to empower women to be educated advocates for their health by knowing how to prevent and manage risk factors for heart disease.”

Extending the seconds after a snakebite UA researchers work to develop snakebite venom inhibitor to slow the spread of the venom, potentially giving emergency reponders more time to save lives

BY CHANDLER DONALD @Chandlerjdonald

Researchers from the University of Arizona College of Medicine are working on creating a fast-acting venom inhibitor for snakebite victims.

Dr. Vance Nielsen is vice chair of research for the Department of Anesthesiology at the UA. He, along with collaborators from UA’s VIPER (Venom Immunochemistry, Pharmacology and Emergency Response) Institute, are researching what could best be described as a snakebite EpiPen that could help save lives and reduce the bodily damage that snake bites can cause.

Nielsen began this research working with a molecule called fibrinogen, which can modify the way blood clots. Clotting is a large concern in anesthesiology.

According to Nielsen, he found that a mix of carbon monoxide and iron could modify fibrinogen in a way that would better allow for clotting to occur.

“I ran into Dr. Boyer, who runs the VIPER institute here ... and it just popped into my head,” Nielsen said. “I said, ‘has anyone ever tried to modify fibrinogen and see if it would be resistant to snake venom?’”

According to Nielsen, no one ever had. The next year of work consisted of research on how to modify fibrinogen in a way that would neutralize snake venom.

A review of their preliminary research suggested that carbon monoxide might do the trick.

“They wanted to see whether or not carbon monoxide would bother any of the enzymes directly; my response was that would not be the case because very few things do,” Nielsen said.

“And that’s when we made the discovery that, as a matter of fact, it shuts them down pretty well.”

In areas with colder climates, carbon monoxide poisoning is a very serious concern. Carbon monoxide is created when fuels such as gas, wood, oils and coal don’t burn completely.

Without proper ventilation, people sometimes unknowingly breathe in this harmful gas.

COURTESY ANN CISNEROS

UA RESEARCHERS ARE WORKING on creating a venom inhibitor for snakebite. Using a mix of carbon monoxide and iron, the inhibitor will allow blood to clot better, slowing down the venom and reducing the harm it causes to tissue.

The gas settles in the lungs, pushing out oxygen and at worst causing suffocation. This occurs most often in old buildings with poorly-ventilated furnace systems.

The same properties that make carbon monoxide so deadly are also what make it a perfect substance to inhibit snake venom.

“Carbon monoxide is an incredibly fast-diffusing molecule — it can go through painted walls,” Nielsen said. “So if it can go through walls, it can certainly go through tissue and turn off any enzyme it hits.”

Speed is a crucial element to surviving a snakebite, said Nielsen.

“Basically, when it bites you deeper than just under the skin, it’s going to cause venom to be

released into the tissue,” Nielsen said. “There will be immediate edema, pain, swelling, and then little by little, from that [site], venom is coming into your circulation.”

According to Nielsen, once the venom is in your circulation, it can begin to damage the kidneys, heart or inhibit the function of your blood platelets, any of which can be fatal.

Nielsen recalled a story he read last week: a healthy triathlete in Colorado was hiking when he was bit by a venomous snake.

When paramedics arrived 20 minutes later he was already in shock. By the time they got to the hospital he was dead.

“Not all snakebites are the same,” Nielsen said. “And if you’re lucky you have a few hours to get to the hospital, and

if you’re unlucky they find you and monitored to see how they dead.” respond compared to victims While animal trials have without the inhibitor. produced promising “That’s the only way to results, the step approach this kind of toward human thing ethically,” Nielsen trials will be much said. more difficult.

‘A Streetcar Named Desire’ comes to UA Arizona Repertory Theatre’s production of the classic 1947 play kicks off this week for a run through Dec. 3

BY MOYA ZHANG @DailyWildcat

When Marlon Brando dropped to his knees and gave that guttural howl of “Stella!” in the film version of Tennessee Williams’ “A Streetcar Named Desire,” audiences knew they were seeing a classic piece of American literature.

Tornabene Theatre will host performances of Williams’ iconic play, performed by Arizona Repertory Theatre, from Nov. 5 to Dec. 3.

The play is set in 1947 America and follows the story of an aging southern belle, Blanche DuBois, who is struggling financially and emotionally after the loss of her historic ancestral home. Seeking refuge at her sister’s New Orleans home, Blanche grapples with reality as she battles for survival against her brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski, a representative of the aggressive and bold new-age American. It is a timeless struggle between the fading southern belle and the new American in a post-war society.

Despite the daunting magnitude of the play, Hank Stratton, the director of the show and assistant professor in the UA School of Theatre, Film and Television, said the play is an excellent learning opportunity for everyone involved.

“It’s terrifying to the actors to stand in the shadows of those great performances, but it also inspires them,” he said.

Musical theater major Marissa Munter is taking on the lead role of DuBois. With less than a week to go until opening night, she said preparations are going well.

“I think we’re all feeling very comfortable and confident going through,” Munter said. “There’s definitely nerves, but good nerves.”

DuBois is depicted as an emotionally fragile and weak character who has been discarded by an animalistic and patriarchal society. Her character has always polarized audiences; some are highly sympathetic, while others find her ill fortune self-imposed.

Munter hopes for a similar reaction from the audience.

“I think [a polarization] is more interesting and hope it creates more conversation between people deciding if they’re sympathetic or if they hate Blanche,” she said. “When you leave a theater with people talking about it …

DURING “A STREETCAR NAMED Desire,” Blanche (Marissa Munter) would rather watch the poker game while her sister Stella (Vinessa Vidotto) would rather listen to the radio. At the poker table sit Pablo (Jaime Pla), Stanley (Kasey Caruso), Mitch (Zach Zupke) and Steve (Connor Griffin).

you know it’s a really important piece of work.”

This year, the play celebrates its 70th anniversary, but Williams’ key message of compassion and kindness toward strangers remains as relevant today as ever.

“Every single person [in the play] has something identifiable, and I think that’s why it’s a classic,” Stratton said. “That and [the play’s] incredible structure and peerless writing style.”

In the play, Williams is very specific about his stage directions and precisely details everything from the costumes to the lighting.

Stratton intends to remain faithful

to the original production, but he also aims to ensure its relevance to a contemporary society.

“You have a road map [with Williams’ stage directions], but you also have something to live up to,” he said.

This translates to the set of the New Orleans French Quarter, which Stratton portrays as realistically as possible while also inviting the audience to use its imagination.

“I wanted representational pieces, not just literal pieces, so there’s a beam that divides the two rooms as opposed to an actual wall,” Stratton said. “The door has no frame, so it sort of floats

in space, and that way … it allows us to peer into this world, and the audience is actually in the room with them.”

Stratton hopes to achieve this immersive experience with his set design.

“I want the audience to feel surrounded by the moments,” he said.

“I want them to feel like they’re in the Quarter, as opposed to observing the Quarter.”

With the set and actors nearly ready, it’s time for the audience seats to be filled. Lisa Pierce, director of marketing and development for the School of Theatre, Film and Television, hopes more students come to watch

Arizona Repertory Theatre shows.

“We just reduced the student price this calendar year … to just $15 across the board,” she said. “Seeing a professional-caliber production for that rate is a steal.”

Munter is also looking forward to see who will be in the audience.

“Because it is such a topical show, it would be really cool if we could get younger audiences to come in and hear what their perspective is of it,” she said.

Tickets for “A Streetcar Named Desire” can be purchased online at the Arizona Repertory Theatre website.

Decker brings personality and experience to ice

BY RACHEL HUSTON @mirachelonice

The University of Arizona hockey team has had one of their best summers of recruiting ever.

Among the talent is Trey Decker, a standout amongst his teammates thanks to his personality, the edge he plays with and the experience he has under his belt.

Arizona boy Trey Decker, like a handful of other Wildcat hockey players, is native to Arizona, a place that doesn’t come off as a hockey mecha.

“It’s nothing like when you go to places like Michigan or Pennsylvania, where [hockey] is just everywhere. … I think I was the only hockey player at my high school,” Decker said. “I don’t think anyone has even been to a hockey game that I went to high school with.”

It was his family’s Minnesota roots that made him pick up a hockey stick and put on roller blades. When he was around 8, Decker put on his first pair of skates and bonded with a handful kids on the block over roller hockey on the streets.

According to Decker his childhood was like a scene out of a TV show: kids hacking and slashing at each other in the roads and picking up their nets and hustling out of the way of incoming cars.

Eventually, as Decker began playing more and got involved with organized hockey, he learned his role on the ice: a pest.

“I’m not the biggest guy; I’m definitely an antagonizer,” Decker said. “I like to get under people’s skin. I’d call myself a pest for sure.

SIMON ASHER/THE DAILY WILDCAT

ARIZONA’S TREY DECKER SKATES past a fallen Central Oklahoma player on Oct. 26 in the Tucson Convention Center. The Wildcats lost the game 3-0 despite outshooting UCO 45 to 37.

I just like making people angry out there.”

It’s one thing to be a pest, but you have to have a certain attitude to be an effective one, and Decker had it. He was a relaxed guy and everything was a joy to him.

His attitude is praised as what makes for the type of guy who is the best at being a pest.

Successful pests are masters of annoying the opposition with how unfazed they are when teams try to retaliate.

Decker played with various midget teams in the Arizona area until he turned 18, when he finished high school and was onto a new phase of his life, and

he didn’t think hockey had a role in it.

“I was 100 percent set on quitting hockey, I was gonna get a job and wasn’t even set on school at the moment,” Decker said.

But then, after playing in the National Midget Tournament with his Mission AZ Ice U18 team, he was approached by the Philadelphia Jr. Flyers of the Eastern Hockey League.

He still wasn’t sold on the idea though, so he took the offer home and asked his parents what he should do. They told him he should go for it and try it out for a year to see how he liked it.

So, he decided to make the trip to Philadelphia and ended up

making some best friends and some of his favorite memories from his time there.

City of brotherly love Rough.

That’s how Decker described his two years with the Jr. Flyers.

The main reason was due to the not-quite-suburb, not-quitefarmland area he and 14 other people lived in, according to Decker. It was him, 13 junior hockey boys and his coach all packed into one house that “wasn’t the nicest,” according to Decker.

Would he have preferred being with a billet family, since billets are the typical option for players

moving across the country to play?

“It would have been easier having food cooked for me,” Decker said. “After all, it was just a bunch of teenagers and young adults living together, so no one really ever cooked for each other.”

On rare occasions the group would cook, but most often they would visit a local gas station chain called “Wawa.” But this wasn’t considered your average gas station to the Jr. Flyers.

Decker recalls being told it was a place so nice you could take a girl on a date there because the food is so good.

While the players bonded over gas station runs, the coaches pushed them away.

“No one liked the coaches,” Decker said, “and the coaches really didn’t like us.”

Decker said him and UA teammates who also played with the Flyers at the time were never put on lines together because the coach simply didn’t like them together, with no actual reasoning behind it.

Looking into his character, he was able to take a negative and turn it into a positive with ease.

Decker knows his junior years benefitted him greatly, both on and off the ice.

“If you threw 18-year-old Trey into college, it wouldn’t have worked out well,” Decker said.

Maturing after playing junior hockey for two years helped him transition to college life on the Arizona campus.

You can see that in the way Decker carries himself on the ice and how he plays. Be it his personality, his grit or his skill, Decker has a lot to give this team for years to come.

Notebook: Tate’s Heisman chances and AP Poll

BY ALEC WHITE @AlecWhite_UA

October was a great month for Arizona football, to say the least, and they wrapped it up by knocking off No. 15 Washington State in arguably the school’s biggest win of the year.

The Wildcats finished the month with a perfect 4-0 record, all wins coming in conference play.

The 58-37 victory over the Cougars keeps Arizona at No. 2 in the Pac-12 South standings with a 4-1 conference record, but more importantly, it means the Wildcats are bowl eligible for the first time since the 2015 season as they are now 6-2 overall.

Arizona also returns to the AP Top-25 poll and are ranked No. 23. It is the first time the ‘Cats have been ranked inside the top 25 since week four of the 2015 season.

Here are the other noteworthy takeaways and observations from the victory against Washington State: Khalil Tate in Heisman conversation?

Tate Train, KaBoom Tate, The Big Cat — whatever you want to call him, Arizona quarterback Khalil Tate has been in a league of his own since being inserted into the lineup on Oct. 7, and his name is now starting to pop up in Heisman conversations.

Against Washington State, the sophomore quarterback accumulated 421 yards of total offense and three touchdowns.

Tate threw for 275 yards and two touchdowns on 10 of 17 passing while racking up 146 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

In the month of October, Tate ran for 840 yards, and here’s the kicker: That’s the most rushing yards during October by any player in a Power Five Conference in 10 years, according to ESPN Stats and Info.

As if that weren’t enough, Tate now qualifies for the statistical leader categories, and he ranks first in NCAA Division I in rushing yards per carry (13.42) and third in rushing yards per game (154.3). His right arm has also been impressive as Tate is now the Pac-12 leader in pass efficiency (187.5).

Tate is not close to being the Heisman front runner; rather he seems to be among the top five or

six candidates, as is Stanford’s Bryce Love.

Another mesmerizing performance this week and Tate could have serious consideration.

The “little squirrel” breaks loose J.J. Taylor finally had the breakout game many were expecting from the electrifying sophomore running back.

Taylor put up 152 yards on the ground on just 15 carries and ripped off runs of 62 and 72 yards, the latter of which resulted in a touchdown.

“The dude is electric,” tight end Jamie Nunley said. “You think he’s going to be tackled for a loss, and I don’t know how he gets out of it.

He’s a little squirrel.”

It remains to be seen if the nickname will stick, but with Nick Wilson banged up with an injury, Taylor’s display of jukes and bursts of speed played a large role in Arizona’s win.

Fans dressed as empty seats It’s no secret that the attendance at Arizona Stadium has been less than optimal this year, and that trend continued on Saturday.

On Homecoming weekend, with Arizona on a three-game winning streak and a top-25 school coming to Tucson, one would assume the stadium would be filled to the brim.

Instead, just the opposite occurred. Less than 43,000 fans made it out to support one the best teams in the Pac-12. Either that or fans decided to dress up as empty seats for Halloween, but that’s not a likely scenario. Matters were made worse when a few hundred fans made their way to the exits at halftime and into the second half.

The ZonaZoo did have its best showing of the year, but the section still had plenty of open seats.

Bend but don’t break The phrase above seems to be the theme for the Arizona defense over the last few weeks. The defense has given up chunk plays throughout the game, but they tighten up in the most crucial spots, and the same turned out to be true against Washington State.

The Wildcats surrendered a grand total of 642 yards of offense to the Cougars but only allowed that to be turned into 37 points. Of those,

602 yards were through the air — 93 from Luke Faulk and the other 509 from backup Tyler Hilinski, who entered the game in the second quarter after Faulk was benched.

However, Arizona forced six turnovers (four interceptions and two fumble recoveries), one of which was a pick-six from linebacker Colin Schooler in the second half.

“I peeked up at the scoreboard, at the jumbotron, and I wasn’t the only guy on the screen,” Schooler said. “So I knew he was coming, and luckily I got in the end zone.”

LA showdown looms Arizona will now travel to Los Angeles, to take on the No. 17-ranked USC Trojans in a battle for supremacy in the Pac-12 South.

USC is perched at first place in the standings with a 7-2 overall record, 5-1 in the Pac-12, while Arizona is breathing down the Trojans’ neck.

The winner of this game will control its own destiny in the Pac-12 South.

Game time is set for 7:45 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 4, and will be broadcast on ESPN.

A look back at the team that started it all Players from the 1968 Arizona lacrosse team visited Tucson during Homecoming weekend and reflected on the beginning of the sport on campus

BY CORY KENNEDY @corykennedy_DW

In the ‘60s, the sport of lacrosse wasn’t wide-spread in Arizona yet. At the time, it was really only an East Coast sport, with states like New York, Maryland and New Jersey dominating the scene. While lacrosse struggled to spread past the East Coast, a man named Carl Runk brought the sport to the University of Arizona. This year’s Homecoming weekend brought many of those players from the ‘60s back to campus to revisit the place they once suited up in red and blue.

Runk, a former UA football player, convinced the university to make a lacrosse team. Runk knew how to play and coach the game, being from Maryland where lacrosse was almost as popular as baseball or football.

Eventually, Runk made the idea of a team into a reality.

Runk, who became head coach, brought on UA graduate and former Princeton lacrosse player Willie Cooper as the assistant coach. The team began to grow, and in 1966, the team grew to about 20 players.

Jay Greer, a player who started his career in spring 1966, described Runk as a great coach and said he enjoyed being on the team. “[Runk] was built like a rock. He was not a screamer, but you kind of knew to pay attention to him,” Greer said.

“He wasn’t the tallest guy there, but he was certainly the most solid. He was a really great guy. I can’t imagine he made any money doing that; it was just for the love of the game.”

The team consisted of players of all different levels of skill and experience. One of the players was Arizona native Phil Bodenhorn.

“We couldn’t play the finesse game; we had to play the knock-them-down-on-the-ground game,” Bodenhorn said. “When they were within five-yards of the ball, man and ball stick ‘em; make them sore to get up, because if we get into the finesse game and the run game, we were gonna lose, so we played very, very tight defense.”

To complete the team, Runk looked to UA football, as he had connections in the athletic department as a former football player. Runk looked at the seniors who were going to be graduating and decided to come out for the lacrosse team to stay in shape for the upcoming football season.

For many players, their first time playing lacrosse was at Arizona. Greer, who grew up in Washington and Virginia, had barely even seen the sport before attending the UA. “I may have seen a picture of somebody playing lacrosse, but it didn’t register [it],” Greer said. “I had no particular affinity for the game until I got to Arizona.”

Just like Greer, Bodenhorn, who played at Arizona until 1968, was brand-new to the sport. With no prior experience, Bodenhorn got to work on his skills and made the team. For two hours every day, the lacrosse team practiced at the old polo field, which is now the medical school.

Like many changes on campus, the lacrosse gear was much different back then. The sticks were heavier and made of wood. The netting to hold the ball was made of cat gut innards, which took nearly a year to develop a good “pocket.” Players wore helmets, gloves and some wore elbow pads. Goalies would wear a baseball catcher’s chest protector to guard against the hard, rubber ball.

“We had long sticks that were six pounds of fiber glass,”

THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA

THE UA 1968-1969 lacrosse team. During the 2017 Homecoming weekend, many of the players from the ‘60s revisited the place where they once suited up in red and blue.

Bodenhorn said. “If you break the cross or the edge, you’d have to fiber glass it and use Popsicle sticks and put your stick over chairs in your dorm room in hopes that it would dry before the game the next day.”

Throughout the ‘60s, the team played home games on the football field and traveled to compete against other teams. Bodenhorn recalls the team piling into two or three university station wagons with equipment sticking out of the cars.

During the mid and late ‘60s, the varsity team played a mix of club and varsity opponents, including the Air Force Academy, Orange County Lacrosse Club, University of California-Berkeley, Stanford, Claremont Men’s College and ASU. Playing against the Air Force Academy was one of the highlights for the team in the late ‘60s, according to Bodenhorn. The Air Force team would fly into the DavisMonthan Air Force Base to play the ‘Cats.

“We would play them in the Arizona Stadium and more often than not beat them in the desert heat,” Bodenhorn said.

In an effort to spread awareness about the game and hopefully recruit more fans and players, the 1968 team played a 15-minute game during a football spring scrimmage.

“We jazzed it up. We did a lot of hitting and intentionally sacrificed our bodies,” Bodenhorn said.

“We knew we were going to get hit because we wanted to show everybody that it was a contact sport. We got a

lot of oooh’s and ahh’s because fans had never seen that before.”

For players like New York native Scott Hays, lacrosse was nothing new. Hays played from 1965 to 1969 and was one of the top defense men for Arizona. He was also a part of the first club team at the UA. In 1969, the lacrosse team switched from a varsity to club sport because of budget cuts and Title IX forcing the university to cut several minor sports on campus.

“I have many memories of lacrosse and my friends … lifelong friends, funny memories,” Hays said. “We used to share the outfield with the baseball team. Someone hit the ball out to our field, and I picked up the baseball with my stick and threw a strike from deep center. The look from the baseball guys was incredible.”

Runk stayed with the team until 1968, but he later left to become head coach at Towson University. He coached football from 1969-1971, becoming the first ever head football coach at Towson. After 1971, he became head coach for the Towson lacrosse program and stayed there for 31 years, winning a national championship in 1974.

Over 50 years later, the Arizona lacrosse team continues as a club sport with anywhere from 40-50 players on the roster during the spring. While there have been several coaches that have contributed to the program’s success since it first started, players and fans of Arizona lacrosse have Runk and former players to thank for bringing a college program to Tucson and for starting a tradition that still stands today.

Arizona cross-country senior Addi Zerrenner finds inspiration through her mother and pushes herself to the limit while running

BY ALEC WHITE @AlecWhite_UA

Addi Zerrenner thought she was hallucinating.

Zerrenner was making her way into the second of three loops in the 6,000-kilometer race during the 2016 Pac-12 Cross country Championship in Tucson and told herself to keep pushing harder. That’s when she thought she saw an unmistakable figure sneak into her view, her mom Melinda.

At first she couldn’t believe it, but then Zerrenner realized it was her mom.

“This was one of the first times my mom has seen me run in college cross country,” Zerrenner said. “I was like ‘I gotta go’.”

Less than two months earlier, the second time around the loop had been her downfall in a previous race, but not this time.

Zerrenner, the redshirt junior, stayed strong on the loop and on the third time around, she made her move. Zerrenner started passing other runners one by one until she crossed the finish line with a 10th-place finish.

“Last year, I had the best race of my life,” Zerrenner said. “I just did it for my mom.”

It is common for student athletes to find inspiration through their parents and family members, but for Zerrenner’s case, there’s more than meets the eye.

Her father, Robert, passed

away when she was 5-years-old, and since then, Melinda raised Zerrenner and her older brother, Zack, as a single mom.

“My mom used to get up at 4 a.m. [and] go muck 12 horse stalls so I could have my horse board there for free,” Zerrenner said. “Then she would come home, fix us breakfast, get dinner ready in the crockpot because

then she would drive my brother to the other side of town to go to high school. And then she would work eight hours, pick us up after school and we’d commute an hour and a half to my brother’s soccer club. Then we would come home around 8 or 9, eat dinner in the crockpot and do it all over again.”

After seeing her mom and

brother struggle day after day, Addi decided it was time to mirror them.

“Watching the two biggest people in my life just inspire me so much, I think it’s a lot of my work ethic, or when I don’t really feel like digging deep on a workout, I’m like ‘no, stop being soft,’” Zerrenner said.

Addi was a late bloomer in

terms of finding her calling.

Running wasn’t even on her radar as she began high school.

“I thought I was going to play college soccer and pro soccer,” Zerrenner said.

But everything all changed when she went out for track and field her freshman year as a way to stay in shape for the next soccer season. That’s when Zerrenner fell in love with a new sport. She decided to pursue that avenue and never looked back.

“It’s my passion … It’s my therapy,” Zerrenner said.

Zerrenner has translated the work ethic she gained from her mom to the desert trails in Tucson as she is now one of the top female distance runners at the University of Arizona, alongside teammate Claire Green.

“I never think anything is out of my reach,” Zerrenner said. “I think that a lot of people are kind of more realists, whereas I’m more a dreamer.”

As Zerrenner begins to close into the chapter to her redshirt junior year, she says she knows there’s plenty of time left in college, but still time to dream about the future. Of course, Zerrenner’s mom plays a part.

“Once I can start racing in Europe, I really want to take her,” Zerrenner said.

And if that happens, Zerrenner won’t need to have the same shocked look from the Pac-12 Championship. Her mom has been there all along.

Jacobson guides youth on UA volleyball

BY NOAH AUCLAIR @noahauclair

Standing at 6-foot-8, McKenzie Jacobson is hard to miss on the volleyball court. But the redshirt senior’s presence is felt around the team for more than just her height.

“The quality of person [Jacobson] is far exceeds the player she is,” said head coach Dave Rubio.

Jacobson got her start early in volleyball thanks to an older sibling.

“I started playing in second grade,”

Jacobson said. “My sister is three years older than me, so when she was in fifth grade, I was like her practice partner at home, and then I was on my first team in the fourth grade.”

When it came to playing in college, Jacobson had a variety of choices, including UC Davis, USC and San Francisco, but Arizona won her over in the end.

“I fell in love with the campus when I came here,” Jacobson said. “The coaches are amazing. The academic center was the main reason why I liked it. With the opportunities for the athletes, it’s just

really helpful.”

Jacobson is studying nutritional sciences and is on the track to become a dietician.

While being a Wildcat, Jacobson has been named a Pac-12 All-Academic Honorable mention every year. To be eligible for the honor, a student-athlete must have a minimum 3.0 overall gradepoint average and appear in at least 50 percent of their team’s games, according to the Pac-12.

“I think that we should come [to college] to excel in our sport and in the classroom, not just put all our eggs in one

basket,” Jacobson said.

While excelling off the court, Jacobson has been just as impressive on it.

Through Jacobson’s colligate career, the middle blocker led the team in hitting percentage as a freshman and junior and finished second in hitting percentage her sophomore season.

In each of the past two seasons, she had 204 kills, and last season she had 10 matches with five or more blocks, tied for the team lead.

Jacobson is now in her last season as a

Wildcat, but the outcome hasn’t been going the way she or Rubio expected. Coming off a season in which she played 129 sets, she has only been seen on the court for 29 sets in 20 matches.

“It’s been a disappointing year, for sure,” coach Rubio said. “You start for two-and-ahalf, three years and then your senior year, not play very much and feel disappointed. But if you knew McKenzie, she’s one of the greatest, down to earth, keeps things in perspective, positive, just a really great kid. That’s one of the reasons why I recruited her, other than being 6-foot-8 and having a really good arm.”

And that sentiment is shared around the team.

“Whether or not she’s the outspoken leader, she’s always there, working hard, and I think that’s always a reliable factor for everyone,” said sophomore setter Julia Patterson.

Jacobson has been thrust into a leadership role, being the most tenured member on a team loaded with freshmen and sophomores. She credits the fact that she redshirted her freshman

year as a reason she is able to be so helpful to her younger teammates.

“A lot of the girls are kind of going through that struggle of the high school to college transition,” Jacobson said. “So I’m able to talk to some of the younger girls and say, ‘Hey, it’s OK. It’s hard right now, and you might not understand it right now, but there is a greater purpose.’”

During games in McKale Center, you’ll often see Jacobson going through the line of teammates standing at the bench, performing handshakes unique to each teammate.

For most, remembering each handshake can be a tall order, but Jacobson said there’s nothing to it.

“As the years go by, you just kind of remember them,” Jacobson said.

You don’t often see Jacobson standing on the sidelines without a smile on her face, and she said the joy that being on the court brings her is one of her favorite parts of playing volleyball at Arizona.

“Getting to be goofy and have those moments with the team is what makes it fun,” Jacobson said.

But for playing volleyball as a

whole, she said the competition of the sport is her favorite part.

Not playing as much as you are accustomed to, especially as a senior, is something not all athletes handle very well. But

Jacobson’s “whatever is best for the team” mindset sets her apart, both as a player and a person.

“It’s been hard, but I’m learning a lot about myself and just putting my pride aside,”

Jacobson said. “I go hard every day in practice, and if Dave knows that playing other people is going to get the win for the team, then that’s what I’m here for, because it’s a team sport.”
