Tucson marches for women’s rights

BY STEVEN SPOONER @DailyWildcat

Women’s rights supporters took to the street throughout the nation on Saturday, Jan. 21, literally and symbolically marching on Washington D.C. Tucson held a march as part of the Women’s March on Washington to support human rights.

Cheers roared from a crowd covering the park in front of the Joel D. Valdez Main Library. Signs stood above the crowd with messages ranging from “Dump Trump” to “No more patriarchy” to “Black Lives matter.”

“We need an uprising in the state,” said Kelly Fryer, chief executive officer for the YWCA Southern Arizona. “Nobody gets left behind today.”

The marchers came the day after the inauguration of President Donald Trump.

The movement identifies itself as a nonpartisan event, comparing itself to other historical marches such as the 1963 civil rights march led by Martin Luther King Jr. and the 1997 Million Woman March.

“The march is standing on its own,” said Robin McSpadden, a participant and Democrat in the march. “We will only become stronger.”

The website for the Arizona march states “the movement supports women’s rights, survivors of sexual violence, the LGBTQIA community, African Americans, Native Americans, Mexican Americans, Latina Americans, Middle Eastern Americans and immigrants from around the world.”

Trump lost the female vote to Clinton by 12 percent, a similar spread to Mitt Romney and Barack Obama in 2012, according to the Pew Research Center.

The organization states that the march is “not about one administration,” but it is welcome company in the protests to Trump’s presidency. The Pew Research Center reports that only 8 percent of black and Hispanic voters cast a ballot for Trump, and the Council on American-Islamic

Relations report that 13 percent of Muslim voters voted for Trump.

The Trump administration’s goals for immigration reform, as well as his controversial nomination of Jeff Sessions for Attorney General, have been targets of outcry from minority groups across the nation. The NAACP organized a sit-in at Sessions’ office, which ended with police arresting the protesters.

Mishka Polyakov, a Republican high school student, stood out in the crowd holding a “Gays 4 Trump” sign. Polyakov said he wants to open a dialogue at the march. His friend holds a sign saying “Build that wall.”

“I’m for gay rights but against the liberal left,” Polvakov said. “I want to clarify things.”

major changes in the areas of women’s rights, such as the push by Congress to defund Planned Parenthood. House Speaker Paul Ryan announced that Republicans are moving to remove all federal funding for the women’s health clinic, a bill that Trump has already said he will sign.

Planned Parenthood has been a dividing line between Republicans and Democrats for years. The controversy centers around the clinic providing birth control and abortions, in addition to other medical services.

“This movement is about Planned Parenthood.” McSpadden said. “It’s about global warming, it’s about the Affordable Care Act.” Planned Parenthood has been a public supporter of Obama’s health care law claiming that it qualifies 55 million women

to receive birth control.

“We all have a right to be safe, to be treated equally, to have access to health care,” the Arizona women’s march listed on their website.

“We’re going to have insurance for everybody,” Trump said in a recent interview with the Washington Post. A lot of what this plan might look like is still in the air, however the new president has said he doesn’t want a single-payer system.

Whatever Trump’s health care plan, it is unlikely to cover abortion procedures. In September, Trump promised to pass the Hyde Amendment, a piece of legislation attached to annual funding bills which bans federal funding from being used for abortion. The congressional House Rules Committee is now drafting an almost identical bill, HR7, with the hopes of pushing it through.

The other concern for women’s rights activists is the empty Supreme Court seat that Trump is expected to fill. Trump drafted a list of 21 possible nominees to choose from. Toward the top is Circuit Court Judge William Pryor quoted as saying the decision to legalize abortion is “the worst abomination of constitutional law in our history.”

The Women’s March on Washington comes on the 20th anniversary of the 1997 Million Woman March. According to a press release from the movement, the march was started when a Hawaiian woman sent the idea to march on Washington to several of her friends.

In Arizona, marches occurred in Flagstaff, Prescott, Sedona, Phoenix, Green Valley, Ajo, Jerome and Tucson.

It is still unclear whether this will remain a one-time event or if the organization will continue to demonstrate. In another press release, the organization stated “the Women’s March on Washington is just the first step; what comes after is up to us all.”

US News ranks UA Online 81 in first year of operation

BY SHAQ DAVIS @ShaqDavis1

A year after its official launch, UA Online has been rated among the best online bachelor degree programs in the country.

U.S. News and World Report ranked UA Online 81 out of 312 programs, putting it in the top 25 percent across the nation.

The report ranked schools based on three criteria: faculty credentials and training, student services and technology and student engagement. The UA scored an 88 overall in faculty credentials, 63 in student services and technology and 48 in student engagement.

The UA currently offers 30 bachelor degree programs online in its second year.

The 2020 Vision for the Arizona University System hopes Arizona public universities can increase their ability for educational attainment. One of the “macro” strategies is to “strengthen existing and support new partnerships with all educational sectors to facilitate and improve the pipeline to university education.”

The Arizona Board of Regents’ 2020 Vision is to get more Arizona citizens to obtain at least a bachelor’s degree, which in turn will help the state’s economy.

The biggest difference between online classes and in-person is how the online class process works, said Ashley Jordan, UA Online psychology program coordinator and lecturer.

“I’d say probably the biggest difference is the sense of isolation that students can sometimes feel in the online world,” she said. “So that’s constantly something that I’m tying different teaching methods to eliminate.”

Another difference is online classes should be fully developed before the start of the semester, according to Jordan. While in-class schedules can change, students online may have busier schedules than the traditional student on campus.

She said it’s important to find interesting ways to encourage students to engage and communicate with the teacher and classmates across different time zones.

Many students that enroll are coming back to finish their particular degree, and students in the military and their families enroll online.

“They really can’t get an education in a traditional face-toface setting,” Jordan said. “The only option for them in order to get a degree is to do something online because they can take it with them wherever they’re going and still be able to complete the program.”

Because of this new access to different programs toward degree completion, she says the growth for UA Online can be “astronomical” because it has been an unmet need for many willing students.

More than 1,000 undergraduate students werre enrolled in UA Online in Fall 2016, according to the University Analytics and Institutional Research department.

Future projections by the 2020 report shows enrollment will have to come from other areas besides students coming from high school.

“In addition, the system would have to deliver academic programs by every means possible, to every corner of the state and to students of all ages—this without reducing the value of an Arizona university diploma,” the 2020 Vision report said.

Jordan said it’s important to continue research on best practices, which could thus improve student engagement, the

lowest overall score for UA Online.

“I think it’s really important to continue to do research and that way we can actually see what strategies are working to help students to succeed,” she said. “I have experienced there being a stigma toward online education, and I feel that is starting to go away as knowledge of it has grown.”

Although some are not aware of the benefits of online programs Jordan said she believes it’s still an exciting process.

“I think it is an exciting time to be in online education,” she said. “I really see it as being the way of the future.”

Uncertainty surrounds Trump presidency While voters react to Donald Trump’s populist support, experts have difficulty pining down expectations for his presidential policies

BY NICK MEYERS @nickmeyers214

On the eve of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, America’s biggest question seemed to be “what comes next?”

“I think one of the biggest things I’ve seen in the people I’ve talked to is there’s a lot more uncertainty with him than we’ve seen before,” said Stephen Gilliland, a faculty member at the Eller College of Management’s Center for Leadership Ethics.

Gilliland’s area of expertise focuses on health care, a hot topic as a Republicancontrolled Congress prepares to repeal Obama’s health care law.

“There’s just absolutely enormous uncertainty in the world of health care right now,” Gilliland said. “And I think that’s just a microcosm of the uncertainty across the country.”

He referred to some of the country’s more pressing issues from the campaign trail, such as immigration and global trade agreements, which also maintain an air of uncertainty as Trump takes office.

Much of this uncertainty is tied to Trump’s inconsistency in what he says, what he does and what his cabinet says.

According to Gilliland, that lack of consistency can have adverse effects on the perception of Trump’s integrity. Most politicians, he said, go out of their way to be consistent.

“We appear to have a president who has no interest or worry about being inconsistent,” he said. “That I think could lead to problems with perceptions of integrity.”

Gilliland related Trump’s behavior as a politician to leadership practices in the private sector, in which successful business leaders are often rewarded for quick, instinctual, gut-based decision-making.

“In politics, it’s almost the opposite,” he said.

The difference Gilliland points to is the disparity in the decision-making process between the public and private sectors. In conjunction with the difficulty of fingering Trump’s policy, this poses a problem for the American electorate in that many cannot bring themselves to trust Trump’s agenda.

“I think that’s what a lot of people have been struggling with,” Gilliland said. “It’s unclear what his positions are and what his likely actions are going to be.”

Suzanne Dovi, a professor in the School of Government and Public Policy, pointed to Trump’s inconsistency as one of the major differences between Trump and past presidents.

“He’s constantly contradicting himself,” she said. “He appoints cabinet members that disagree with his views.”

In past administrations, Dovi said

that, even if people disagreed with the president’s politics, at least they knew what to expect.

“I think one of the reasons why there’s so much uncertainty and fear about his administration is because we have no past record to judge him by,” Dovi said. “He really is an unknown.”

This allows voters a certain latitude of projecting their concerns and hopes onto Trump’s presidency, Dovi said. However, the reality is that voters can’t be sure of the policies that will flow from Trump’s leadership.

Many seem to believe that Trump is perhaps the most unusual president we’ve elected in our country’s 241-year history.

Experts cite his lack of political experience and his affinity for speaking directly to voters through social media, most notably Twitter, as behavior uncommon to past presidents.

Dovi’s colleague Samara Klar, also a professor in the School of Government and Public Policy, said while shifting political trends may be part of the explanation, most

of it has to do with Trump himself.

“I think it has to do with how he is as a person,” she said. “I think it really speaks to his own personality.”

Klar points to Trump’s behavior during his career as a celebrity, in which he often took the lead on publicity by speaking for himself and contacting reporters directly.

This behavior seems to have carried over into his political career as he bypasses the “filter of the mainstream media” in favor of 140-character announcements.

Klar and Dovi highlighted Trump’s lack of political experience and recordlow approval ratings and percentage of the popular vote as some of the statistically unusual aspects of Trump’s entry into office.

Dovi wrote an article published Sunday on the online philosophy website The Critique called “Name-Brand Populism: Donald Trump’s Political Legacy.” In the article, Dovi refers to Trump’s conduct as “an unhealthy alliance between America’s

consumerism and its populism.”

“I think that there is a lot of economic anxiety and frustration among the American people with government,” she said. “So as a result I think we see that people want to be independent; they don’t want to have any political party identification.”

This represents an impression of corruption among political elites by the American people, Dovi said, highlighting parallels to Obama’s election during which he ran on a platform of hope and change.

The difference with Trump, she said, is that people discouraged with a lack of political power have now turned to those with economic power.

“The forgotten men and women of the United States, the people who really feel left behind with globalization and have justifiable concerns for that, are willing to endorse anyone to just even get recognition,” Dovi said. “Even to get a tweet.”

POLICE BEAT

BY JESSICA BLACKBURN @hotbread33

Meth or potato chips?

A University of Arizona Police Department officer responded to Roy P. Drachman Hall to check on the welfare of a male subject around 1:00 p.m. on Jan. 6.

A police aide advised UAPD of a male acting erratic and executing moves similar to those of Tai Chi exercises. When an officer arrived, the man told him he was practicing Tai Chi and that he was OK. Police offered the man a bottle of water after noting that the man was sweating and appeared to have sores on his face.

Several minutes later, UAPD received another call about the same subject who was seen walking away from an auto jack.

The police aide also informed UAPD he had earlier witnessed the subject drop a potato chip bag, which sounded like thin glass breaking inside the bag. The officer noted this sound to be consistent with the sound of a meth or crack pipe breaking.

While driving from Drachman Hall, police spotted the male, informing him UAPD was aware of his previous narcotics involvement and the incident with the potato chip bag.

The man offered no explanation and did not allow police to make a search.

When the officer questioned him about the auto jack, the man said he wanted it but couldn’t carry it. The subject left the area and the auto jack was placed into UAPD property.

A weed-to-know basis A UAPD officer conducted a traffic stop and approached a vehicle with four occupants, noting that there was a thick haze inside the vehicle and a strong odor of burnt marijuana when the driver rolled down the window.

Police asked the driver what all the smoke was and the driver responded that they had been smoking Black and Milds.

The driver admitted to police he was handed a blunt from the front seat passenger and both had taken hits from it as they were driving around.

All passengers of the vehicle denied any involvement with marijuana and would not inform the officer where it came from.

Police conducted a search of the vehicle and found a clear Ziploc bag containing marijuana shake. A shoe box found on the floorboard also contained marijuana and a marijuana grinder.

One of vehicle’s occupants was a minor who showed no signs of marijuana use and was released into the custody of his father.

The other three occupants of the vehicle were read their rights and the driver was cited for two civil traffic violations. All parties departed after police released them on recognizance.

UAPD officers processed 2.6 grams of marijuana and the grinder which read ‘BLUNT’ with a drawing of a marijuana leaf.

Regents on board with Ducey’s state budget

BY RANDALL ECK @reck999

The Arizona Board of Regents voted unanimously to support Gov. Doug Ducey’s state budget on Jan. 20.

“Governor Ducey’s fiscal year 2018 budget provides needed support to our public universities and the students we serve,” said regents President Eileen Klein, in a Jan. 12 press release.

Ducey’s budget proposes to exempt Arizona’s public universities from sales tax.

The estimated $37 million previously paid in sales taxes will be used to finance the borrowing of up to $1 billion for the next 30 years.

During a regents meeting held last year at the UA, Tom Belshe, Deputy Director for the League of Arizona Cities and Towns, spoke out against this proposal.

The cities containing the three public universities are expected to lose about $7 million in revenue as a result.

“I do want to express concern and sentiment for the local municipalities that would see a real decline in their resources, but I think that it is important for us to continue that discussion,” said Rita Cheng, NAU president, after the measure was tabled for further discussion by the regents.

“Our view is that revenue can be enhanced by our state universities. One of the constraints on economic development will be adequate, trained workforce,” said Regent Rick Myers.

Myers understands the need to fix potholes within the next few years, but the economic output generated by a university with more capital to invest will result in a city budget with little damage.

The UA currently has $131 million in deferred maintenance costs according to Gregg Goldman, senior vice president for business affairs and UA CFO. By 2025, the UA will need an estimated $1 billion to resolve deferred maintenance.

The bonds sold based on the guaranteed sales tax income will fund deferred infrastructure maintenance as described

by Goldman.

“If we don’t build research facilities, if we don’t maintain research facilities, we’re not going to be able to move forward,” Goldman told the regents.

The debt will also fund new construction projects, the improvement of research facilities and free up funding previously used to secure loans.

“If we build research facilities, we know they’re going to be filled with great research that will bring in more funding.”

ARIZONA BOARD OF REGENTS President Eileen Klein, NAU President Rita Cheng, UA President Ann Weaver Hart and ASU President Michael Crow await to speak at the House Committee on Government and High Education on Feb. 16, 2016.

Myers said during the UA’s regents meeting. “These aren’t risky bets.”

The budget provides a one-time $15 million appropriation which the public universities can spend at their own discretion. The UA will receive around $4.2 million based on the size of its student population in relation to ASU and NAU. “Not only will students benefit from this effort, but so will Arizona’s economy as this bonding allows Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University and the University of Arizona to become even bigger economic drivers of research and development,” said Chair Greg Patterson, during the regent’s Jan. 20 special meeting.

Since the recession, $99 million has been cut from schools. Ducey’s budget does not contain any plans to restore any previous basic state aid.

“The funding Ducey’s budget describes for education is in name only because the numbers are so small compared to the losses and cuts that have been made to the universities over the last 10 years,” said Jo

Holt, chair of the Pima County Democratic Party.

“My budget responsibly utilizes the resources we have available to invest in education and expand opportunities for everyone in our state, including our most vulnerable citizens,” Ducey said in a press release.

According to Ducey, his budget invests $114 million beyond inflation and enrollment growth on K-12 education.

“We are on firm financial footing and have the ability to invest real dollars in areas where they matter,” Ducey said.

Ducey’s budget promises an average $900 raise of Arizona teachers by 2022.

The budget provides $13.6 million this year, equating to an average reward of $225 for each teacher.

Poor neighborhoods will receive $10 million to fund full-day kindergarten programs. If 60 percent of students at a school qualify for free or reduced lunch, teachers choosing to move to these schools will receive a $1,000 bonus.

An additional $250,000 will be

appropriated to relieve math, science and special education teachers’ debts.

Schools with an average AzMERIT score in the top 10th percentile in the state will share in an allotted $38 million of bonuses; schools with lower income students will receive a greater proportion.

School construction and repair will receive $17 million from Ducey’s budget.

Private contractors will be compensated, from the new budget, in order to increase their workers pay to meet new minimum wage requirements.

Broadband internet will be brought to rural and low-income schools to the tune of $5 billion.

During the regent’s Jan. 20 meeting, the regents reaffirmed their commitment to lobby the state legislature to fund half of in-state residents’ tuition by 2020.

Currently, the state funds 34.5 percent of in-state tuition. The regents received an additional $62.8 million from private donors beyond Ducey’s budget in order to increase tuition coverage to 40 percent.

Trump is still busy building his Cabinet and he doesn’t seem to be making any concessions. The foxes appear to be in the henhouse

BY JACKSON MORRISON @DailyWildcat

I

t’s official, we have a new president. For some, that fact inspires hope. For others it creates dread. While our new commander and chief promises to have an exciting tenure, some of the most surprising changes are already in the works in President Trump’s cabinet.

A lot has been made of the lack of diversity seen within the president’s cabinet nominations, with an astonishingly low number of women and minorities being assigned to high level positions.

In fact, if Trump were to be unable to serve the full four years, the line of succession begins with eight white men. That number may grow to 12 depending on Heidi Heitkamp’s nomination to secretary of agriculture.

This lack of diversity is tragic and underlines existing difficulties women and minorities face when striving for positions of power. However, a lack of diversity may not be the most concerning component of Trump’s cabinet when many of his nominees seem to have been chosen for their predisposition to undermine the very positions they’re being assigned to.

Many of Trump’s senior most positions are being filled by individuals who are categorically unfit for the responsibilities of their offices. The three nominees I believe epitomize Trump’s unconventional choices are former ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson for Secretary of State, former Governor Rick Perry to Secretary of Energy and Dr. Ben Carson to Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.

Of the three nominees listed above, I find Rick Perry’s nomination to be the most humorous.

Unlike Tillerson and Carson, Perry does have experience in managing energy policies at an executive level. While governor of Texas, Perry championed a push away from renewable energies and toward fossil fuels. During that same tenure, Perry pushed to triple the nuclear stock pile of nuclear missiles in Texas and open an nuclear waste depository.

While not a conventional choice, Perry does have experience in energy development and management of nuclear assets both in the form of missiles and power plants. What makes Perry

an alarming pick for this position is the stance he took during his unsuccessful 2012 Presidential campaign when he promised to eliminate the Department of Energy.

A man who once claimed he would remove a department from existence should not be placed in control of it five years later. There’s undoubtedly a more qualified candidate for the position.

Dr. Ben Carson is another candid example of a questionable Trump appointment. Dr. Carson has never held a political position and were it not for his failed presidential campaign, he would not be a household name.

Despite his sedated personality, Dr. Carson is by all accounts an extremely gifted surgeon with a gifted mind. What makes his appointment confusing is that Dr. Carson was appointed to Secretary of Housing and Urban Development instead of Secretary of Health and Human service. Even though he has no education or experience in the former, and a lifetime of practical experience pertaining to the latter.

The Daily Wildcat Editorial Policy Daily Wildcat staff editorials represent the official opinion of the Daily Wildcat staff, which is determined at staff editorial meetings. Columns, cartoons, online comments and letters to the editors do not represent the opinion of the Daily Wildcat.

I see no issue with Trump looking beyond conventional candidates when looking for his cabinet, but assigning him to be the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development with no formal or practical experience in the department seems to be sabotaging Dr. Carson’s chance of success, and severely under utilizing his unique skill set.

The final nominee I would like to draw attention to is Rex Tillerson, former CEO of ExxonMobil and current nominee for secretary of state, commonly considered the most powerful cabinet position.

Tillerson has spent over four decades working in the oil industry and has never held a political position. Trump promised that he would “drain the swamp”—referring to career politicians and DC insiders—when appointing his cabinet and he certainly kept that promise by appointing a man with no political experience to his most powerful position.

My greatest concern for this appointment is that a Secretary of State needs political experience. While Rex Tillerson is a man of the

world, having conducted businesses across the globe, the Secretary of State is responsible for maintaining and influencing the United States’ international relations.

Having the nuanced and specialized knowledge necessary for that task requires decades of public political service. Tillerson is certainly an intelligent man, but I adamantly believe that the position which he has assigned requires a Washington insider who has experience with foreign political affairs.

I am a great fan of giving people the benefit of the doubt and allowing them an opportunity to prove their aptitude before judging, but Trump’s cabinet picks scare me. Fortunately, our current president has proven me wrong time and time again as I had written him off as a serious candidate at the start of his election.

Look where we are now. Nothing would make me happier than having Trump lead our country into an age of peace and prosperity, but with what he has shown us not even a week into his presidency, I am beginning to have my doubts.

BY ISAAC ROUNSEVILLE @itsgonbezoppity

A

rizona Governor Doug Ducey’s recent executive budget proposal to allocate more tax dollars for K-12 and higher education touches on a decades-long debate over American education funding. The debate, which one can catch a glimpse of by opening any local newspaper that covers the issue of state education, tends to be dominated by one overriding issue: funding.

Increased funding, many education advocates reiterate, is the panacea to our education problems, particularly for K-12 education. More money for facilities, maintenance, textbooks and technology is key to improving lackluster outcomes, giving children a sense of purpose in a competitive world and boosting disappointing test scores.

The argument has an intuitive ring to it.

When most of us picture struggling schools, we probably think of children reading outdated, mold-eaten textbooks in musky classrooms as teachers struggle to teach emerging scientific concepts with materials from the 1960s.

This somewhat embellished imagery is painted for us by documentaries like, “Waiting for Superman” and campaigns for increased school funding, does have some truth behind it.

Funding for Arizona school facilities in particular was the first to go in a series of deep cuts to the state budget after the 2008 Great Recession. There are also many schools throughout the state and nation that haven’t had basic facilities, like laboratories and drinking fountains, updated in over 50 years.

But increased funding for education, while it should always be encouraged, is ancillary to the educational problems faced by Arizona and the United States as a whole. The real image of a failing school in the US is not one beset by budget crises or a lack of resources.

While the problems of obsolete technology and decaying facilities are definitely pervasive in certain poverty-stricken pockets of the nation, the real problems students and teachers face across the US is more systemic. It’s one where lower standards and performance are normalized, the role of teachers as professionals is marginalized and disregarded and priorities for recognition are placed in athletic programs over academic achievement.

To see why this is so, one needs a global perspective on education. Some of the top performing schools throughout the world, especially in Poland, South Korea and Japan,

Wondering who President Trump considers ‘the people’

BY REX HUPPKE CHICAGO TRIBUNE (TNS)

I

want to know who President Donald J. Trump considers “the people.”

After he took the oath of office Friday, the new president stood behind a lectern and spoke, ostensibly, to all of America.

He said: “Jan. 20th, 2017, will be remembered as the day the people became the rulers of this nation again.”

Who are the people? All of us? Just those who voted him into office?

Are “the people” just the ones he referred to as “the millions and millions of American workers that were left behind”?

Does “the people” encompass those who disagree with him? Does that group include opponents he has demeaned, people he has called losers and dopes and liars?

foreign school systems. The common thread she finds in these schools is neither a significant devotion of state resources to education, nor constant and costly investment in new technology. Instead, what she uncovered was a culture of pushing and encouraging students through rigorous challenges rather than coddling them.

Treating the job of teaching as a profession to be respected, rather than mocked or avoided, and placing more focus in academic accomplishments rather than sports and athletics. When we debate issues in education, these three factors, not just funding, should be at the top of our discussion. To be clear, we should not slash funding for public schools or higher education, especially if that extra funding goes towards increased incarceration and corrections facilities. We also shouldn’t ignore or undercut the important contributions that robust school athletic programs have brought to our education system.

Technology, updated textbooks, athletic scholarships, supportive coaches and wellmaintained facilities can all be gateways to a more effective, engaging education for students, whether they’re in kindergarten or preparing to graduate college. These resources won’t go far if they’re placed in a system where students are coddled, instructors are disrespected and academic achievements are placed secondary to athleticism.

Ducey’s budget proposal does make limited positive steps in realizing some of the above goals. In addition to boosts in state spending for K-12 and higher education, it provides very modest increases in teacher salaries, bonuses for teachers at low-income schools, extra funding for top-performing institutions and forgiveness of student loans for students teaching in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math.

Raising teacher salaries and deferring their debt is a step in the right direction if we want to recognize the crucial function they play in a well-functioning educational system. Like doctors or lawyers, teachers deserve to be treated as professionals that are endowed with one of society’s most important roles: educating future laborers, professionals and citizens.

It’s arguable whether these budgetary changes, which many political opponents and critics decry as piecemeal and meaningless in the long term, will do much to move the needle in a positive direction for test performance, graduation rates or education outcomes in the next few years.

To realize major changes in a disappointing educational system, we must realize major changes in how we think about education.

This may require a critical reexamination of the cultural, historical and economic factors that have shaped US education, as well as a reckoning of what our true priorities are when we discuss the educational future for students.

Funding, while it might be a metric of how much we care about education, is not a measurement of quality or achievement. To reach those goals, we must change how we treat students, value teachers and recognize academic achievement.

answers to your ques ons about sex and rela onships

I vant you...

to use your sleeve!*

From 1980-2010 the rate of newborn male circumcision declined from 64.5% to 58.3% across the US (based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data from hospital discharge records).

I am not circumcised and have trouble getting a condom to stay in place and feel comfortable.

Is there something I can do?

Condom use can be a bit awkward at times when you have a foreskin, or “uncut” penis. Think of it this way: you will need to “unroll twice” – first your foreskin, then the condom.

With a little practice, you’ll feel more comfortable as you develop your (or your partner’s) coordination skills.

Shop around to find what condom works for you. Condoms come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Look for condoms that have a larger tip or head instead of “snugger fit” or contoured condoms.

Here are some tips for success: • Carefully open the condom and place a dab of personal lubricant in the unrolled tip. This will help increase sensations during sex.

• When your penis is erect, pull the foreskin back to expose the head.

• Keep the foreskin pulled back while unrolling the condom down and over your penis. This will help keep the condom in place when the foreskin naturally moves forward.

• Stay patient and keep your sense of

humor. Sometimes, the condom may “slingshot” off your penis.

Keep extras around if you need to start over.

• Once the condom is rolled all the way to the base of the penis, put some lube on the outside of the condom to enhance pleasure for both you and your partner.

• Practice makes perfect, so try it out a few times on your own to get comfortable with the process.

You’ll know what feels best for you.

Circumcision is largely a religious or cultural custom, commonly performed on young male babies, that has long been believed to have health advantages. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) found the health benefits of newborn male circumcision outweigh the risks, but the benefits are not great enough to recommend universal newborn circumcision. The AAP policy says the final decision should be left to parents to make in the context of their religious, ethical, and cultural beliefs.

Local group helps welcome Tucson refugees to Tucson community celebrates

BY CHLOE RAISSEN @chloeraissen

With help from the Tucson community, Syrian refugees are greeted by the volunteers of the Arizona Welcomes Refugees Facebook page.

The page was founded by Arizona State Senate Assistant Minority Leader and small business owner Steve Farley in November 2015. “[There is a] wonderful giving community in Tucson,” Farley said.

Japanese culture

BY ANDREA CORONADO @DrDre_3

There may be misunderstandings about race, culture or ethnicity. One organization in Tucson is trying to encourage people to learn about a different culture through community events.

The Southern Arizona Japanese Cultural Coalition strives to unify the Japanese community. SAJCC is for Japanese Americans, Japanese nationals and their families. They also welcome organizations and people who promote Japanese history, language and culture. Anyone interested in Japanese culture is encouraged to participate.

In Tucson, the organization creates opportunities for the community to experience and learn about a new culture.

More recently, SAJCC collaborated with Odaiko Sonora and Yume Japanese Gardens of Tucson to celebrate the new year at Pima Community College Downtown Campus Center.

On Jan. 14, the fourth annual Japanese Festival educated Tucsonans with a day packed with Japanese traditions, demonstrations and delicacies.

Tucson Japanese Festival committee chair Kay Neggly works to help the Tucson community understand and appreciate Japanese culture. She enjoys teaching others through cuisine.

Her favorite delicacy is mochi, a Japanese rice cake that is pounded and then molded into shape. It’s a traditional food for the Japanese New Year.

Neggly admires the coalition that comes from SAJCC and believes cultural events help to support the entire community.

“It helps people think about how other people think,” she said.

David Meyer, a retiree and Tucson local, works with the Yume Japanese Gardens of Tucson with the aim to educate people about plants and their origins.

Meyer said he believes it’s important to highlight culture in community events.

“Our primary purpose is education,” Meyer said. “We attend various events where we can familiarize people with Bonsai, the art of artificially growing ornamental trees or shrubs.”

Meyer said he appreciates different cultures

and the idea of borrowing traditions, customs or knowledge from them.

“In the desert, we’ve adapted the Asian Bonsai technique to the Sonoran Desert culture because of the climate,” he said.

Events put on by SAJCC, like the festival, give people the chance to see traditions like origami. Beyond traditional music and food, there are more modern subjects that can be explored in culture.

Alex Colombe, a UA graduate student in East Asian Studies, said he is most passionate about Japanese media and even gave a presentation at the Tucson Japanese Festival. Japan is his area of focus and has been a constant interest to him.

Colombe’s mother has studied in Japan and his father has made several business trips there while his brother’s band was touring. Through

his family and their admiration for the country, Colombe decided to study abroad there.

“Even as a child I admired Japanese media,” he said. “I liked Pikachu as a child, and this was before the days of Pokémon Go.” Colombe said he believes much of his success as a Japanese speaker is owed to different media forms, such as video games, which made learning Japanese fun and enjoyable.

According to the American SpeechLanguage-Hearing Association website, the development of cultural competence is a “dynamic and complex process requiring ongoing self-assessment and continuous expansion of one’s cultural knowledge.”

Organizations like SAJCC continue working to spread cultural awareness in the community.

The fifth annual Japanese Festival is anticipated for next January, and the Tucson community will come together, yet again, to celebrate the new year through culture.

DILLINGER LIVES

(FOR A WEEKEND)

Dames, booze and John Dillinger: Tucson’s most infamous gangster came back to life this weekend at the Hotel Congress Dillinger Days

BY ISSAC ANDREWS @isaacandone

Dillinger Days returned to Hotel Congress again this year to honor the capture of notorious gangster John Dillinger by the Tucson Police Department and the

Tucson Fire Department.

Friday night, the start of the two-day event, featured the Dillinger speakeasy, where participants dressed up, listened to music and tried the food and drink of the 1930s.

“We have all the great food and drink and whiskey tasting and all those things that are evocative of that era,” said David Slutes, entertainment director for Hotel Congress.

This was the fifth annual speakeasy. For the past five years, Hotel Congress has partnered with the Greater Tucson Fire Foundation, to which the proceeds from the event go.

Hotel Congress general manager Todd Hanley said the focus is to spread awareness about the foundation. The speakeasy has sold out the past two years, according to Hanley.

DILLINGER DAYS FROM PAGE 16

Speakeasy attendees had access to the private label whiskey Del Bac 1919, which was only available at Hotel Congress on Friday night. The whiskey was created in collaboration with Hamilton Distillers in Tucson.

Hanley said Hotel Congress continues to set the trend for local creations whenever they possibly can.

Cameron Fisher was bartending during the speakeasy.

Fisher, who has been with Hotel Congress for seven years, said he really enjoys the Del Bac 1919.

“This is my favorite holiday to work,” Fisher said. “Better than Halloween, better than New Year, better than Christmas or Thanksgiving or St. Pattie’s Day.” Fisher said he loves watching downtown Tucson fall back in time during Dillinger Days.

“The streets are lined with old cars, and everyone is dressed to the nines,” Fisher said.

Krista Shultz, dressed in a black flapper-style costume, visited the event from Flagstaff. She said this was her first time at Dillinger Days and she was surprised how many people dressed up for the night.

“Seeing how many people are in costume and want to throw it back to the 30s, 20s era, it’s really cool,” Shultz said.

Friday night’s attendees were treated to live shows: a performance by the Dancehall Dames, a performance by the Kings of Pleasure and a gun show by Jonathan “Hotshot” Mincks, the man who has performed in re-enactments as John Dillinger for 23 years.

Mincks displayed his gun-slingin’ ability during his performance and also included witty banter with the crowd.

He even proved he could quick draw his pistol faster than the audience could clap their hands.

In another trick Mincks shot a deflating balloon as it flew through the air while holding a mirror behind his back. He never dropped a gun during the whole show.

“Sometimes they fall, but I don’t drop ‘em,” said Mincks.

Fiances Yakov Fox and Natalie Schmitter have attended Dillinger days the past two years and said it has now become a tradition for them. They said they were both impressed by the gun show, although they were startled when Mincks fired off his first shots. Schmitter said it was neat to watch Mincks pop a balloon in the air as it traveled.

“We were looking at each other and all of a sudden we started hearing gun shots,” Fox said. “We didn’t know if we were supposed to duck and cover.”

The couple said they love the outfits, the music and the whole theme of Dillinger days.

Ella Fitzgerald could be heard through speakers in one room, and live jazz singers entertained folks in the bar across the hall. Men who weren’t wearing fedoras donned bowler hats or Homburgs; women who weren’t wearing Parisian-style hats boasted black-lace headbands.

“We came down to listen to the music of the era,” Helen Hinterberg said.

She and her husband, Mark, were at the speakeasy, and the couple danced the foxtrot and the swing at the event. Helen wore a red dress for the evening.

“She’s the lady in red, so I should be dead by the end of the weekend,” Mark said, alluding to the Romanian woman who is the center of a Dillinger myth. As the story goes, the lady in red, who Dillinger could not resist, betrayed him to authorities.

Saturday’s events featured re-enactments of John Dillinger’s capture.

Dr. Buck Montgomery played the roles of a detective and Danny the hotel manager during the reenactments. He said the best part of Dillinger Days is the participation of the audience.

“So many came out,” Montgomery said. “It’s great to see them dress up, play the part and enjoy the whole ambiance.”

This is the first year Montgomery acted in the Dillinger Days reenactment, although he said he performs with Mincks often.

“It’s part of our history,” Montgomery said. “The whole gangster era was strictly Americana.”

Montgomery said he enjoys the humorous representation of

a real event that occurred at Hotel Congress.

Storm photographer and journalist Warren Faidley said many people don’t really remember that Dillinger was violent.

“It’s kind of like pirates over time; you kind of forget all their evil deeds, and it kind of turns into a romance,” Faidley said.

“It’s weird how that works.”

The re-enactments told the story of Dillinger and his gang’s experience at Hotel Congress.

Along with re-enactments, Saturday featured drawings of Prohibition-era cars by Danny Martin in the Hotel Congress lobby. Martin said this was his third year having art in the lobby. He said he comes to Dillinger Days most years and enjoyed this year’s re-enactment.

“It’s great, people love it, they absolutely love it,” he said.

“They dress up, they come down, it never gets old.”

After L.A. sweep,Wildcats set sky as the limit

BY CHRISTOPHER DEAK @ChrisDeakDW

Heading into their two-game Los Angeles road trip, the Wildcats were riding a 10-game winning streak and were undefeated in conference play.

Something wasn’t quite right, though.

The team’s buzz revolved more around what was happening off the floor, rather than on it.

The vibe surrounding the team was just different than it was for the 2014 and 2015 Wildcat teams. In those years, Arizona was consistently ranked in the top 10 and was No. 1 for seven straight weeks in 2014.

But this year’s squad was missing their best player and had no signature wins.

Well, sometimes life comes at you fast.

The Wildcats played their best game of the season against the UCLA Bruins on Saturday because sophomore Allozno Trier was back in the lineup. He scored 12 points, grabbed seven rebounds and dished out four assists in his first conference game in a little over 10 months.

The Bruins student section did everything they could to get into Trier’s head, and he responded. After a slow start in the first half, he made it clear he was back going coast-to-coast for a buzzerbeating layup to end the half.

His return to the lineup was seamless and he showed almost no signs of rust.

Besides the addition of his scoring ability, Trier allows head coach Sean Miller to have a full set of colors on his palette, and he was already painting a masterpiece before Trier’s return.

The sweep began with a 73-66 victory over the USC Trojans on Thursday night.

The Wildcats, in typical fashion, led by as many as 23 points in the game but allowed the Trojans to come back and cut the deficit to as little as three points with a minute left. Arizona has had a penchant for allowing teams to come back all season long but it has yet to fully bite them. Against USC, they needed a little bit of luck from freshman Lauri Markkanen to pull out the victory.

“I didn’t call bank, but we needed a little bit of luck,” Markkanen said.

If only the Finnish star knew the luck he and the Wildcats were about to run in to.

When the news broke on Friday that Trier was going to play, the entire outlook for Arizona’s season changed. Their handling of the Bruins will have the whole nation on watch, and the Wildcats will become a sexy pick to make a Final Four run.

With Trier back, every aspect of the team has changed. His ferocious slam dunk with just over seven minutes to play marked the start of a new beginning for

the Wildcats.

The sweep in L.A. completed a fourgame road sweep of the California schools, something the Wildcats had not done since the 2003 season. That year the Wildcats made a run to the Elite Eight where they lost a 78-75 nail-biter to the Kansas Jayhawks, much like the 2014 and 2015 Wildcat teams who lost to the Wisconsin Badgers in the Elite Eight.

Miller was excited after the UCLA game.

After weeks of having no comment on Trier and having to deal with injuries, Miller wore his excitement on his sleeve and said that having Trier back “means the world.”

He said UCLA has the best offense he’s ever seen and remarked that he truly believes they can win it all.

When asked if he thought Arizona could win it all, Miller smiled from ear to ear and he cheekily said “we’ll see.”

This year’s team has the ability to take the next step. The Final Four is the team’s aspiration, and after the weekend it will be Tucson’s expectation.

BY CHRISTOPHER DEAK @ChrisDeakDW

Luke Walton is just over the halfway mark of the NBA slate in his first full season as head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Lakers defeated the Indiana Pacers 108-96 on Friday night after a rare two days in between games. The NBA schedule can be grueling, and time off can sometimes be hard to come by.

Luckily for coach Walton, the ol’ alma mater was in town on Thursday night facing off with the USC Trojans.

Walton attended the Arizona-USC game with current Lakers guard Nick Young, who played college basketball for the Trojans. Walton and Young had a friendly wager on the game.

The bet?

“Push-ups ... how many Nick can do,” Walton said.

The former Wildcat claimed he and Young didn’t exchange any trash talk before the game but mentioned Young was quick to quit on his Trojans.

“Nick tucked tail and ran at halftime,” Walton said. “He gave up on his troops way too early. They

actually came back and made a nice game of it, but no trash talking. We had work to do today.”

The Wildcats defeated the Trojans 73-66 and improved to 17-2 on the season, and 6-0 in Pac-12 Conference play.

Walton has seen this kind of start before. During his senior season at Arizona in 2002-2003, the Wildcats started 15-2 and won their final 10 games, finishing 25-2. They would advance to the Elite Eight where they fell 78-75 to the Kansas Jayhawks.

This year’s team hopes to finish out the regular season like the 20022003 team, and Walton got his first real look at the Wildcats on Thursday.

He liked what he saw.

“That’s really the first time I’ve seen them play a full game, but they’re good,” Walton said. “Coach Miller does a good job with them.

They execute, they get after it defensively, they have some nice pieces there. It was good to see them playing like that; I’m looking forward to them taking down the Bruins on Saturday, too.”

Walton’s ascension to the lead man for the Lakers has been swift since he retired from the NBA in

2013. Walton gained traction in the coaching world after he was hired by the Golden State Warriors as an assistant. During the beginning of the 2016 season, Warriors head coach (and Arizona alumnus) Steve Kerr was unable to coach the team due to medical reasons, and Walton guided the Warriors to an NBA record 24-0 start. The Lakers hired him to be their head coach on April 29, 2016.

Walton played for Lute Olson during his time in Tucson and was influenced by a one particular part of Olson’s style: “His attention to detail,” Walton said. “Coach was a stickler for details; it really pays off. At times it’s frustrating and you get sick of doing it, but the year after the year you spend there all the sudden you notice how much easier the game is becoming for you and how much you can take advantage of other teams by focusing on all those little drills we used to do every day.”

With his strong college- and NBAplaying background, he has already established himself as one of the NBA’s brightest young coaches. The Lakers roster is loaded with budding, young talent, but at 16-31 they

the young Lakers roster, and the team has a chance to develop into a contender down the road. Players like Brandon Ingram, D’Angelo Russell and Julius Randle are all able to relate to the young coach, and they have already shown signs of improvement this season.

Walton is admittedly influenced

young to have heard of the legendary Arizona coach.

“I haven’t even heard of the name before,” said Ingram when asked if Walton has mentioned Olson to the Lakers. “I will do my research now since you just said that.”

Surely coach Walton will bring Ingram to attention on this detail.

Determined.

The one word you’d use to describe Arizona Gymnastics sophomore Haylie Hendrickson.

Starting gymnastics at the age of 6, Hendrickson’s goal in life was to go to the Olympics. Beginning out at a very small non-competitive gym in Gilbert, Arizona, Hendrickson knew she loved gymnastics REBECCA NOBLE/THE DAILY WILDCAT RNOBLEPHOTO COURTESY HAYLIE HENDRICKSON from the moment she started.

and then I came to Arizona and I fell in love with it,” Hendrickson said. “Everyone told me I would just know that I wanted to go there, so after my last visit with Missouri I called Arizona and committed.”

Unfortunately, Hendrickson was unable to compete with the Arizona Gymnastics team her freshman year and redshirted due to two knee injuries.

In January of 2015 Hendrickson tore her right ACL during a competition in her senior year of high school.

Hendrickson had surgery and soon was able to get back on the floor and attend the UA. Days before Arizona’s first competition Hendrickson’s knee started to feel “weird” and “loose” while practicing. Her knee then shifted out of place and she was forced to push it back. Hendrickson thought everything was going to be OK, but there was bad news.

“I got an MRI and then called me into [the head coach of

Arizona Gymnastics Tabitha Yim’s] office; I saw our sports trainer and I knew it wasn’t good,” Hendrickson said.

Hendrickson had to get surgery on her knee once again on Jan. 28, 2016.

“I didn’t think I could do it the first time and then the second time happened,” Hendrickson said. “I feel really accomplished that I’ve come back as far that I am right now.”

During her freshman year, Hendrickson was only able to experience college gymnastics from the sidelines, but is now healthy and able to compete in the 2017 season.

“Last year she struggled a lot and it was really hard to see my best friend going through that, but her determination this year helps everyone else on the team be excited to work hard,” said Hendrickson’s roommate and teammate Skyler Sheppard.

Hendrickson placed her hands on the balance beam for the Arizona Gymnastics team and showed what she had to offer during her first meet ever as a sophomore in McKale
