classmates interrupted the class saying something was happening at the YWCA Childcare Center. Cuevas has a 17-month-old daughter who stays at the center on the southeast corner of campus, so Cuevas darted out of her class to make sure everything was all right. On Monday morning, Larry Donnell Coffey’s girlfriend told the Arling-
ton Police Department that he was walking to the YWCA Childcare Center with a gun. The center, which is on 106 W. Sixth St., is located close to the College Park District. During the woman’s call to police at 11:15 a.m. Tuesday, the woman said Coffey, 26, of Arlington told her that “something bad was going to happen.” Cuevas said, “I was really in
shock, I was panicking. I ran over here [YWCA Childcare Center]. I wasn’t sure if I should run or grab my car. I was really, really scared.” When Cuevas arrived at the childcare center, police told her everything was OK. She was able to see her daughter, who was asleep because it was nap time. Cuevas did not want to disturb

The Student Service Allocation Committee, made up only of students from various departments, met Wednesday to listen to presentations for funds for the next fiscal year. The committee uses a portion of tuition monies to make a recommendation to President James Spaniolo on how to distribute funds among student service areas to help complete part of departments’ budgets. Areas being denied funds by the committee would not necessarily mean that department could not find that money elsewhere. These dollars help fund departments including, but not limited to, Student Governance and Organizations, Multicultural Affairs and the Leadership Center. Read the full story at theshorthorn.com.
Wednesday’s College Park Center tour reflected the sustainable efforts UTA put into the center and the ways the center has benefited the university. Arlington Conservation Council member Frank Keeney said he “is interested in the sustainable part of it.” Bill Amendola, UT System senior project manager, opened the free tour and talk by introducing Jennifer Blount, LEED coordinator for Jacobs Engineering, and Ellen Mitchell, sustainable design coordinator for HKS architecture company, before giving background about the arena. The Arlington Conservation Council hosted the tour. To see the full story, check out theshorthorn.com.

Alumnus Ben Lecomte plans to swim across the Pacific Ocean Saturday. Lecomte will swim for eight hours a day and rest at night on a boat. He will also use a Protective Ocean Device that will prevent sharks from getting too close to him during his swim.
Crossing oceans and limits Ben Lecomte will attempt to swim across the Pacific Ocean BY LINDSEY JUAREZ The Shorthorn senior staff
Alumnus Ben Lecomte squeezed into a wet suit, which gripped him like a second skin, before jumping into Joe Pool Lake. After he slipped on flippers and a snorkel, he descended into the lake and began to swim. His body moved seamlessly while his hands splashed rhythmically in the water. The sounds of splashing and water rushing by his ears are the only sounds Lecomte will hear for five months while he swims across the Pacific Ocean. Lecomte begins his swim Saturday in Tokyo, Japan, and will finish in San Francisco, Calif. He’ll travel approximately 5,500 miles. In 1998, Lecomte became the first man to swim across the Atlantic Ocean, said he wanted to inspire others who face everyday struggles. “You may have a dream or have a goal, but you are scared to do it and afraid of leaving your comfort zone,” he said. “I see [the swim] as a way that we can all jump in the water at the same time. I will be in the water swimming, and when you think of someone doing something different, sometimes your

Lecomte will swim for eight hours a day and rest at night on a support boat with his crew. Using GPS, he will start in the same location he stopped the day before. A Protective Oceanic Device will prevent sharks from getting too close to him. Lecomte said he sometimes ran into jellyfish while in the Atlantic Ocean. His wet suit protected all of his body except his hands and face. If he got stung, he kept swimming. He said the toughest part of the swim will be staySWIM continues on page 5

He said he didn’t know there were so many apartments around campus.

member of the Texas Rangers organization. The Texas Rangers chose Preston Beck with the 186th pick in the fifth round of the 2012 Major League Baseball draft on Tuesday afternoon. Beck hit 14 home runs and broke UTA’s single season record with 71 RBIs this past season, earning him first-team All-SLC honors to go with the Louisville Slugger Freshman AllAmerican award he earned in 2010.
Beck played high school baseball at Bishop Lynch in Dallas and said he’s happy to get drafted by the local team. “It’s pretty awesome. It was nerveracking for a while, but it feels good to get it over with and know where I’m going,” he said. Beck will start his career in the minor leagues and said he plans to keep playing hard until he reaches the majors.
“I hope to be able to hit at the next level and keep on doing what I’ve done in the outfield and keep getting better out there,” he said. “Hopefully one day [I’ll] be able to play with the big boys.” UTA head coach Darin Thomas has sent several players to the major leagues during his time at UTA and said Beck is one of the best he’s DRAFT continues on page 3
After a dominating final season in the Southland Conference, the baseball team moves to the Western Athletic Conference without some of its key leadership. In 2012, the team won the SLC Championship, earned a berth to the NCAA Waco Regional Tournament and posted a 36-25 record that was the team’s best since 2003. However, they will be competing against new opponents in the WAC next season without several key pieces of the successful 2012 season. The Mavericks are losing 10 seniors to graduation and junior right-fielder Preston Beck to the Major League Baseball draft. Head coach Darin Thomas said he’s excited for the chance to travel in the new conference but is aware of the change. “There are a lot of unknowns that come from playing in a new conference,” he said. The team loses starting infielders Michael Guerra and Jordan Vaughn, along with outfielder Preston Morrow. They will also lose 12-win pitcher Lance Day and UTA’s all-time saves leader Adam Boydston. However, Thomas said the team showed that it can win on the road, and he expects the young core of returning players to make an impact next season. “We learned that we’ve got some good guys coming back,” he said. “I like the guys that are returning, and hopefully some new guys can step up for us next year.” Sophomore shortstop Ryan Walker earned second-team AllSLC and will lead the returning BASEBALL continues on page 3

UT System-insured tobacco users face fee
Lots to be closed to commuters
UT SELECT medical plan’s new program will include a $30 monthly surcharge. BY SHELLY WILLIAMS The Shorthorn staff
The UT System will require employees who are under the UT SELECT medical plan to pay a monthly surcharge of $30 per tobacco user. This is a new Tobacco Premium Program that will go into effect Sept. 1 for staff, faculty and graduate students who work within UT System campuses. The program will be in place because the UT System cares about the health of employees and a long-standing commitment for a healthy culture, said Faye Godwin, Office of Employee Benefits assistant director for the UT System. Godwin said the UT System
chancellor approved the program, which was developed by the Office of Employee Benefits, a few weeks ago. “There’s plenty of research that shows it is one of the leading causes of death, quite frankly, in the world,” Godwin said. “So we looked at it for several reasons because tobacco isn’t consistent with our culture.” The UT System isn’t the first institution of higher education or state agency to implement a program like this, she said. Texas A&M and the Employees Retirement System both have a similar program, she said. In Aug. 2011, UTA banned tobacco use on campus after hearing the community through surveys, meetings and research. “The decision to implement the Tobacco Premium Program was a PREMIUM continues on page 3
