Student government tackles national, campus issues LAUREN MORETTO | CHIEF REPORTER

2016 Presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during an event on foreign policy and called for an ‘America First’ in his address on April 27, 2016 in Washington, D.C.

Primaries show emerging winners AMIR SAMARGHANDI | NEWS EDITOR

This year’s long, drawn-out primary process is winding down and the victors seem clear.

The two frontrunners who won big on the first Super Tuesday, March 1, business tycoon Donald Trump and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, scored potential knockout blows on the fifth and final Super Tuesday on April 26.

Clinton was the presumptive nominee in 2008 but Trump’s transformation from extreme longshot — about 150-1 in September 2014 to a 1-3 heavy favorite to win the nomination as of May 1 — is worth noting.

Trump has defied the odds and racked up the delegates on every Super Tuesday election cycle, from the first on March, winning eight of 11 states from his GOP opponents, who were numerous and determined to stop the New York real estate magnate.

But the resounding victory on the last Super Tuesday in April echoed his earlier success and may have been the fatal blow to any hope conservatives may have of stopping Trump.

Trump won 108 of the 118 delegates available in Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Rhode Island and well over 50 percent of the available vote in each state.

Trump scored big on every demographic he typically has: seven in 10 voters said they want someone outside the establishment, a trend in every other Trump victory, according to Five Thirty Eight.

Trump’s rhetoric, seen by some as outlandish and offensive, has earned him plenty of scorn but also over $2 billion dollars in media coverage — only including Trump’s rallies and speeches — according to the New York Times.

newsrecord.org

Second-place Texas Sen. Ted Cruz’s hopes of winning the nomination by delegates has long been mathematically impossible, but his hopes of convincing party leaders to host a contested convention may have lost steam as well.

Trump’s smallest margin of victory was 31 percent, and Cruz finished third to Ohio Gov. John Kasich in every state besides Connecticut.

Cruz and Kasich publicly devised a strategy before the primary to split remaining states in order to block Trump’s capturing of the required 1,237 delegates needed to automatically win the nomination.

Trump has earned more than 10 million popular votes so far — more than 2012 nominee Mitt Romney — and is easily on pace to break the modern GOP record.

On the Democratic side, the two-way tussle for the nomination looks firmly in the hands of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who also scored big wins on the April 26 primary.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) only won in Rhode Island, winning 13 delegates but falling behind Clinton by 50 on the night, placing him now 285 delegates behind.

Sanders would need to win 64 percent of the remaining delegates in order to surpass Clinton’s lead.

Clinton’s heavy favorability among black voters emerged again, winning 68 percent across the states.

“Barring a miracle, Clinton will have more elected delegates at the end of the primary season than Sanders. Add in Clinton’s huge edge among super-delegates (520 to 39) and Clinton is the presumptive nominee,” said Nate Silver, statistician and founder of Five Thirty Eight.

From a brief rendezvous with fossil fuel divestment to voting against guns on campus, the University of Cincinnati Student Government (SG) was confronted with issues of nation-wide relevance over the course of the 2015-2016 school year.

As gun-violence became a fixture on news stations over the past year, legislators worked to find a possible solution.

Ohio House Bill 48 would have allowed individuals with a concealed carry permit to keep a firearm inside a locked motor vehicle on college campuses and would have lowered the unauthorized possession of a concealed firearm to a minor misdemeanor.

SG members voted nearly unanimously against the bill in November 2015, with former SG President Andrew Naab calling it “misguided.”

Guns weren’t the only things SG aimed to keep off campus.

Passing a resolution supporting a tobacco-free initiative in October 2015, SG’s efforts were matched by University of Cincinnati President Santa Ono, approving the smokefree policy and implementing a committee in response.

Though the official date of implementation is unknown, the committee was given 12 months to develop a policy and implementation plan.

While campus goes tobacco-free, plans for fossil fuel divestment went up in smoke.

Debate struck the senate room in February when SG opted out of divestment in an attempt to save co-op and internship opportunities for students.

Opportunities in the engineering field were thought to be at particular risk, such as organizations like Marathon Oil Co., BP PLC and Royal Dutch Shell PLC. Former SG Vice President Andrew Griggs called fossil fuel divestment

a “gamble on behalf of the student body.”

In March, SG met the demands of on-campus group the Irate 8 to report the composition of their organization each year regarding “race, gender, sexual orientation and other self-identifying information.”

The report revealed underrepresentation in several demographics, with white students making up over 70 percent of the organization, and the organization being over 50 percent male.

In celebration of Mental Health Week, running from the end of September to the first few days of October, SG initiated a mental health awareness campaign titled 20,000 Bearcats in reference to multiple studies suggesting nearly half of all college student experience mental illness. UC’s student population reaches over 40,000 students.

“This is a topic that we’re hoping to shed light on in a national stage now, while we have that spotlight,” said Naab.

SG took a stand against sexual assault in April by committing $5,200 towards bystander intervention programs.

The program works in collaboration with local bar staffs to help them pick out predatory behavior and ensure students are not susceptible to those behaviors.

The partnership is expected to begin in June.

DuBose shooting brings questions, concerns JAMES DOLLARD | STAFF REPORTER

ALEXANDRA TAYLOR | PHOTO EDITOR

Audrey Dubose returns to the Taft Center after viewing the graphic body camera video of UCPD officer Ray Tensing and Samuel Dubose and before the murder indictment of Tensing, Wednesday July 29th, 2015.

On July 19, 2015, former University of Cincinnati Police Department (UCPD) officer Ray Tensing pulled over 42-year-old Samuel DuBose for missing a front license plate, which escalated with Tensing fatally shooting DuBose.

Tensing was indicted by a grand jury on charges of murder and voluntary manslaughter on July 29 and subsequently released from UCPD. At his arraignment on July 30, 2015, Tensing pleaded not guilty to the charges and was released later that day on a $1 million bail.

Phillip Kidd and David Lindenschmidt, the two officers who corroborated Tensing’s version of events to supervisors, are still employed by UC. Investigative firm Kroll Inc. was hired on July 31, 2015, to “conduct an extensive review, covering all aspects of the July 19, 2015, shooting as well as a top-to-bottom review of all UC Police personnel actions associated with the incident,” according to UC President Santa Ono. Kroll began to assess Tensing’s use of deadly force, UCPD’s response to the incident and the truthfulness and

compliance of all UCPD employees regarding the situation.

February 26 brought resignations of both Chief Goodrich and Major Tim Thornton, resulting from UC’s April 13 release of the Exiger Personnel Review, an 11page document outlining the secondary investigation of both officers.

The report found that former UCPD chief Jason Goodrich “embraced the use of traffic stops as a key part of his proactive policing philosophy, that he actively encouraged his officers to make more stops.”

On Aug. 4, 2015, UC created the Office of Safety and Reform and President Ono appointed Robin Engel, a criminal justice researcher, as its vice president.

Meanwhile, black leaders on campus gathered and discussed their response to the shooting as well as UCPD’s response, leading to the creation of the Irate 8 on Aug. 24, 2015, at a meeting that addressed alleged “overarching systemic issues that are present at the university involving black students and the surrounding community,” according to the Irate 8’s website.

On Sept. 11, 2015, UC released Kroll’s findings, which decided that the fatal

shooting of DuBose should not have occurred and “was entirely preventable.”

Oct. 14, 2015, marks the Irate 8’s public release of demands to UC, some of which include requiring all UCPD officers, faculty and students to participate in a comprehensive racial awareness curriculum and more thorough background checks for faculty, staff and police.

Ono contacted the Irate 8 to discuss its list of demands in collaboration with the group, which hosts events, teach-ins and continues to work on their list of demands being met.

In November 2015, UC issued Request For Proposals to conduct another, more indepth review of UCPD. While searching for an independent group to conduct the investigation, UC announces the settlement of $4.85 million to the DuBose family in January, which includes an on-campus memorial.

After an extensive selection process, UC announced Exiger, a compliance checking company, as the group to investigate UCPD and began their process on Feb. 1.

Exiger’s investigation will end with a final report in June, highlighting problematic areas and offer suggestions to implement as a response.

Year long strides made to strengthen diversity still draw questions CAROLINE CORY | NEWS EDITOR

The 2015-2016 school year at the University of Cincinnati began shortly after the July 19 shooting of Samuel DuBose, which led to multiple diversity efforts on campus, as well as new initiatives and the creation of community and inclusion-centered organizations.

DuBose, 43, was shot and killed in Mount Auburn by former UC police officer Ray Tensing after DuBose’s vehicle had been pulled over for a routine traffic stop.

Thus, the creation of groups such as the Irate 8 began, whose events are geared toward supporting the Black Lives Matter movement. The organization is named after the 8 percent of black students on UC’s main campus and has formed a list of nine demands for the university.

The Community Advisory Council was also created in light of the Samuel DuBose shooting; the organization seeks to provide an outlet for community input on assessing the incident and moving forward.

Many groups have made other diversity attempts such as a new diversity plan to improve variety in the student body and in university employment.

An example of this is the Strategic Hiring Opportunity Program, which seeks to recruit underrepresented minorities and was created by the Office of the Provost.

However, there were also students combatting UC’s diversity movement, especially on social media through

4

anonymous app Yik-Yak in October — including several lynching references — which sought to diminish the efforts made by the Irate 8.

“Some of the comments are highly insensitive and racially charged and run counter to UC’s commitment to inclusiveness and diversity,” said UC President Santa Ono in a university-wide email. “I ask everyone in our community to join me in condemning such comments and for all of us to fully embrace civility and respect.”

The College of Education, Criminal Justice and Human Services began an inclusive-centric initiative based their annual conference around diversity research in January.

Another notable item this school year is the approval for the College of Law to move from its current location at 2540 Clifton Ave. to The Banks near downtown and the Central Business District in order to better serve students in a real-world environment, which was announced in February at a Board of Trustees meeting.

The school year ends with an emphasized awareness of sexual assault after ONOfest violence brought to light a series of student-related incidents happening during the concert April 9 at Sigma Sigma Commons which students paid for through fees.

Due to the state of students and community members at the event, several students of varying ethnicities were allegedly sexually assaulted and came forward with their

stories. This led to statements from UC addressing sexual assault and its happening on campus.

The creation of a new diversity plan was announced at the April 13 Board of Trustees meeting, where Chief Diversity Officer Bleuzette Marshall, Ph.D. announced her spearheading of the plan that has been put in place due to the last plan’s expiration.

All in all, the 2015-16 school year was a year of change, embracing diversity and attempting to make UC a more inclusive campus for all students.

Student groups open doors for increased diversity SAMANTHA HALL | COLLEGE LIFE EDITOR

Grad student, Jo Teut, shares zir poetry at the 2015 LGBTQ Center Meet and Greet , September 1, 2015.

Inclusive campus welcomes LGBTQ JUSTIN REUTTER | SENIOR REPORTER

Inside the LGBTQ Center in the Steger Student Life Center, queer positive posters color the wall.

A student takes a nap on a couch, covered with a blanket. The center has a feeling of warmth and positivity, and provides LGBTQ students a haven and center for the community.

“It provides a safe space for the LGBTQ community” said Stevie Beck, a second-year fine arts student. “The center also helps to raise awareness of LGBTQ issues on campus.”

Some of the biggest accomplishments of the center include rolling out Safe Zone and Trans 101 training programs on campus that are available to anyone, according to recently appointed director Amy Schlag.

All employees of the center are Safe Zone trained in the programs.

“The training helps to build a network of allies on campus, and allow for more cultural competence and understanding of the LGBTQ community,” said Schlag.

This spring during Queercat week, the LGBTQ center hosted prominent guest Lea DeLaria, who spoke to students about the progression of LGBTQ rights over the last thirty years.

Delaria is famous for her portrayal of the character “Big Boo” in the Netflix hit “Orange is the New Black,” whose cast also includes transgender actress and activist Laverne Cox. Earlier this year, the center also hosted a speech by bisexual activist Robyn Ochs, who discussed the landscape of sexuality and how sexual orientation is mapped.

Queercat week features a spring drag show and numerous other events to raise awareness of the community on campus.

“The two drag shows are always a bit hit for LGBTQ students, staff and faculty, as well as allies to the community. This spring, we raised $811 for

newsrecord.org

TransOhio and hope to continue at this rate into the fall,” said Maria Merell, the graduate assistant of the LGBTQ Center.

UC also hosted Queercon 2016 in February.

Queercon featured panels and speakers from all walks of life on a variety of different topics ¬— from civil war history and social justice to comic books and psychoanalysis.

The theme of the event was “social justice warriors” (SJWs), a term most often used derogatively on social websites such as Reddit and 4chan to imply that a person is engaging in disingenuous social justice arguments or activism to raise his or her personal reputation.

“Though SJWs are often portrayed as whiny, shallow and even fanatical, we are reclaiming this term with pride for those who struggle against and resist imperialist white-supremacist capitalist cis-hetero-patriarchy and other systems of domination,” event co-chair Kyle Schupe said in a Facebook post prior to the event.

Despite this year’s successes, the center does not plan to rest on its laurels.

Schlag said she is hoping to put in place an Audre Lorde lecture series and bring speakers to speak on the intersectionality of LGBTQ issues and lives of activists.

“I would like to have more activities and programming for students and make the center a more vibrant hub, a place where students want to be,” said Schlag.

The center will also be hiring a new program coordinator over the summer.

Anyone is allowed to enter, whether they are gay or straight, according to Schlag. The center is also eager to provide organizational support when requested.

“I would like to encourage more students to come in, and if you are in organizations requiring our assistance, let us know,” she said.

The University of Cincinnati hosts over 400 student organizations, ranging from political to social, with nearly everything in between.

The organizations, created by students for students, are designed to create an all-inclusive community for any interest.

Student Activities and Leadership Development (SALD) is thoroughly involved in the creation of new organizations, and reviews each application submitted online.

Some of the top student organizations on campus include Greek Life, the Mountaineering Club, Undergraduate Student Government and Club Sports.

In order to start up your own student organization, you must have at least 10 students interested in chartering the organization, as well as a university faculty or staff member to advise, according to the SALD website.

While organizations are meant to be a fun learning experience for students, responsibility is tied in as well.

When accepting the responsibility of contributing to an organization, students are also accepting the accountability to other student safety, informing other student members of programs and activities, properly allocating funding for the benefit of the organization and complying with the Student Code of Conduct.

In order for student organizations to stay properly regulated, SALD combines forces with the Students Activities Board (SAB) in order to have the proper “registration, promotion and regulation of student organizations,” according to the SALD handbook.

SALD strives to create an environment for students that is “inclusive, fosters a sense of community, diverse and demonstrates integrity,” said the SAB website.

Being involved with extracurricular activities gives students a better chance to feel connected to the university, allows for community building and can all around help a student access their

passions, according to an article by U.S. News Education.

Other research has shown that students engaged with campus events and organizations are beneficial during college, according to SALD’s organization handbook.

Some real life benefits include leadership development, multicultural competency, communication, intellectual growth and the development of interpersonal relationships.

Getting involved at UC can be as simple as a quick login to Campus Link and scrolling through the hundreds of student-only accessible organizations.

Campus Link is the university organization database where each and every student has the opportunity to find a student organization, whether that be academic, social, cultural or beyond.

Campus Link also receives weekly updates from SALD, which include organization announcements and recent information.

Another resource available to any student seeking campus involvement is the Joseph A. Steger Student Life Center, located right on MainStreet, across from TUC and connected to Swift Hall.

When arriving at Steger, students will be greeted by the Wellness Center, Women’s Center, SAB office, Student Government office, Ethnic Programs and Services and many more.

All of these organizations and student centers hold a standard of inclusion and diversity for its members in order to create the most comfortable community for any student to join.

A fall football how-to guide for freshmen CLAUDE THOMPSON | STAFF REPORTER

The fall semester is a magical time on the University of Cincinnati campus.

The leaves are changing, the weather starts to chill out and football comes back.

Football, as we all know, is America’s most popular sport and the championship game at the highest level, the Super Bowl, continues to be the most-highly rated television program year-in and year-out. So, when people tell you this is a basketball school, mostly just ignore them, but the basketball team is pretty good, so maybe you should watch them, too.

Seriously though, autumn belongs to football and UC Head Coach Tommy Tuberville enters his fourth season and still doesn’t have a bowl victory here. Maybe this year’s the year, so I’m here to give you the starter kit of knowledge to how to enjoy football on Saturdays here in the Queen City.

Tickets

As far as tickets go, the best place to get them is going to be the box office.

There is always great deals on student tickets, so you don’t have an excuse not to go to a game.

The box office, if you don’t know, is going to be located where the Richard E. Linder Center and Fifth Third Arena meet, right next to the Oscar Robertson statue.

a couple different special outfit requests during the season, like a white- or black-out.

When it’s official like that, you can find the clothes you need in the TUC Bookstore next to where the expensive Apple computers are, but when it’s not official, wearing anything UC related from the same bookstore is generally a safe bet, and they have a wide selection of jerseys to choose from.

Where to drink before and during the game

For those of age, drinking alcohol before a game, known lovingly as “pre-gaming,” this can be done at a variety of establishments surrounding campus.

Joined a fraternity? Well, look at you, you probably have a place to pregame already. Otherwise, there are plenty of bars around UC to wet your whistle before heading to the game to scream as loud as you can.

If you want a recommendation, we wrote a piece on Uncle Woody’s Pub last fall semester and you can find that with a search on newsrecord.org. It is a staple of Clifton’s history, despite how sticky the floor can get.

As for consumption during the game, refreshments are sold in all of the concession stands for easy access.

Where to sit during the game

“Where do I sit?” is a question I get more often than I should, but we’re going to lay it out for you.

The best place for students to sit is going to be on the south end of the stadium, known as the horseshoe.

You’ll know you’re in the right place when you’re looking at the Athletics Center. There’s also a big UC logo demarking the horseshoe’s location.

What to wear

A lot of times, Cincinnati will do

New season offers hope for UC football JASON SZELEST | STAFF REPORTER

There is no sugarcoating it — the University of Cincinnati football team failed to reach its expectations last season.

They were the favorite to win the American Athletic Conference, and were among those in consideration to play in a New Years’ Six bowl game.

Instead of living up to their billing, the team regressed from the squad that won at least nine games in each of its previous four seasons.

Cincinnati finished with a record of 7-6, including a middle-of-the-pack 4-4 effort in conference play.

That 7-6 record included a 42-7 loss to San Diego State University in the Hawaii Bowl, a bowl game which paid out $650,000 to its participants.

In comparison, the New Years’ Six bowl games paid out $18 million.

A lot needs to change this year if the Bearcats hope to get back to a level where they can compete for the slot in the New Years’ Six bowls.

Before the Bearcats begin their journey in 2016, many questions will need to be answered in regards to personnel.

The biggest question the team faces is who will be the starting quarterback.

Going into last season, then-junior Gunner Kiel was the unquestioned starter at the most important position on the field.

When Kiel got injured, redshirt freshman Hayden Moore stepped in and impressed, creating a controversy.

This season, redshirt freshman Ross Trail has also been thrown into this mix, creating a three-way battle for the starting quarterback job.

Whoever comes out the winner is going to have to find new targets to throw to.

Cincinnati’s top six receivers, and over 84 percent of the total receiving yards, are no longer with the team.

Senior Nate Cole figures to become the No. 1 target, as he has the most experience, hauling in 19 passes for 262 yards last season.

After that, Cincinnati has less than 10 combined career receptions from their receiving corps.

With the inexperience at receiver, look for the Bearcats to become more of a run-oriented offense this year.

While they lose leading rusher Hosey Williams, senior Tion Green and sophomore Mike Boone both rushed for over 700 yards last year.

The two will most likely split carries and look to build on a 2015 performance that saw them combine for 17 rushing touchdowns.

They return to rush behind an offensive line that will maintain relatively intact, bringing back three starters.

The departure of blind-side protector Parker Ehinger to the NFL will be painful though, and a new left tackle must step up.

Defensively, the Bearcats return almost everyone, as only four seniors were on their two-deep depth chart last season.

Changes need to be made on that side of the ball, despite this.

All of those returning players were part of a defense that finished tied for 88th in the nation in points allowed per game.

Their run defense was especially bad, giving up 190.3 rushing yards per game, good for 94th out of 128 teams.

Troy Caupain reflects on season, leadership DAVID WYSONG | SPORTS EDITOR

N.C. BROWN | CHIEF PHOTOGRAPHER

The men’s basketball players chant the alma mater after their triumphant victory over UConn on Saturday, Feb 21, 2016, at Fifth Third Arena.

The University of Cincinnati Bearcats men’s basketball team had a plethora of heartbreaking losses during the 2015-16 season.

From seeing a shot fall from beyond half court with .08 seconds left in tripleovertime against the University of Connecticut, to not getting the game-tying shot off in time against Saint Joseph’s University during their NCAA tournament game, there were plenty of times the Bearcats were awarded the short end of the stick. “[I learned] that the game is never over,” said senior guard Troy Caupain in an exclusive interview with The News Record.

“I just think throughout the year we didn’t finish games well, it came down to that one rebound and that one box out … I don’t think it was a bad year, we still got to the tournament, it’s just little things to look forward to have on our mind as we prepare for next year.”

Cincinnati finished the year with a 78-76 loss to Saint Joe’s and it looked like their heartbreak was going to continue in the

offseason as head coach Mick Cronin was contemplating leaving the program.

Cronin was considering taking the head coach position at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, but announced he was going to remain a Bearcat March 25.

He then signed a contract extension April 18 with UC that will keep him with the school through the 2022-23 season.

“To know that he was coming back was very good,” said the 6-foot-3-inch point guard. “It was good for him to not leave something that he has already started …

Some things have to be done for certain reasons and I think coach did what he had to do and as a team we stayed together.”

The Bearcats are losing four seniors from last season ― forwards Octavius Ellis and Shaq Thomas, center Coreontae DeBerry and guard Farad Cobb.

However, these losses might not be too crucial for Cincinnati as they will be gaining junior forward Kyle Washington, who transferred to the school from North Carolina State University, redshirt freshman Tre Scott and freshman guard Jarron Cumberland, the runner-up vote for the Mr. Ohio basketball award last season.

“I think we’re going to have the same team,” Caupain said. “Me being a leader now and Kevin Johnson being a vocal leader, you got two seniors that love each other and love the team and you got people who now have a year or two under their belt … So I think the team’s going to be real good, I think we’ll be solid at every position.”

UC had a tough out of conference schedule last season, facing the likes of Butler University, Iowa State University and Xavier University. It will not get any easier this coming season as they will be playing in the Hall-of-Fame Tip-Off Classic against Duke University.

“That’s going to be one of the biggest games, not only for me but for the team,” Caupain said. “We didn’t get the chance to be recruited by Duke or be able to see what their facilities are about or get the name that Duke has so I know that we will come out with a lot of energy … It’s not every day you get to play the Dukes of the world, the Kansas’, the [University of North Carolina’s], you got to be prepared for those games, those games are what you sign up for college basketball for.”

UC Olympic pole-vaulting hopeful Valles, others keep on track DAVID WYSONG | SPORTS EDITOR

The spring semester may have ended, but Cincinnati Bearcats athletic teams will be working well into the summer.

Cincinnati track and field will be competing until June when they attend the NCAA Outdoor Championships, but sophomore polevaulter Adrian Valles would like to be working longer than that.

Valles said his main goal this season is to qualify for the Olympics for his native Spain.

“I know it’s very hard, I think I have some possibilities,”Valles said in an interview with The News Record. “I’m just going to try my best, try to make 18 [feet] 8.5 [inches] which is Olympic standard and try to make the Olympics.”

Valles’ personal record is 18 feet 6.5 inches, but the Olympic qualifying mark is 18 feet 8.5 inches.

With his hometown being in Pamplona, Spain, Valles would be representing his home country if he were to qualify.

“Representing your country, it’s always a great experience,”Valles said. “It’s the best thing you can achieve as an athlete.”

Valles has work to do with his Bearcat teammates before his possible trip to the Olympics, which begin Aug. 5 in Rio. The outdoor season began March 25 when UC traveled to the Hurricane Twilight Meet in Miami and so far they have seen a lot of success out of their women.

The American Athletic Conference announced April 12 that senior sprinter Kenya Woodall and sophomore jumper Rebecka

8

Abrahamsson swept the conference’s honors for athletes of the week.

“That was really cool,” Abrahamsson said. “I honestly had no idea until the coaches told me and I thought it was really cool that two Cincinnati girls could take it in the same week and it just feels like that we proved to everyone that we have something going here.”

Abrahammsson placed second in the triple jump and third in the long jump during the Tiger Track Classic April 8-9. Woodall won her first 400-meter outdoor race of the season, posting a time of 52.12 seconds.

“The standard is at like an all-time high,” Woodall said. “So like, I got to do what I got to do and there’s no room for error, like none at all.”

The track and field team is not the only UC team who will be competing during the summer ― the Bearcat baseball team will also be playing games during the break.

As of May 1, Cincinnati is 21-22 overall and 9-5 in AAC play, putting them in first place in the conference standings.

“In a nut shell, I think we’re showing signs of what we’re capable of,” said UC Head Coach Ty Neal. “We’re still young in some areas to where we’re still not playing at a high enough level that we’re capable of … The lack of success we’re having, specifically at the plate, also shows that we still have some room for growth.”

With the team staying right around .500, finishing with a winning record would be a milestone. The Bearcats have not accomplished that feat since the 2010-2011 season.

Summer entertainment heats up ARTS SECTION STAFF

With the close of the 2015-16 school year, students can finally relax their minds and start getting excited to watch movies, go to concerts, play video games, read books and just generally give into the pleasures of entertainment.

The News Record’s Arts section contributors weighed in on what they are excited about entertainment-wise for next year.

“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” - Erin Couch | Staff Reporter

For Potterheads, this fall can’t come fast enough.

“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” is finally being released in November. The movie is author J.K. Rowling’s first time writing a screenplay, so naturally the Potter-obsessed are racing to the bookstores to obtain the book version.

Compared to the cliché demographic of Harry Potter cosplayers that show up to midnight premieres hours ahead of time, my preparations for the movie of rereading the series for the third time may not be extreme enough.

Nevertheless, you’ll still see me at the theater with a lightning scar tattoo on my forehead and a wand in my hand.

Nintendo NX - Alex Barhorst | Staff Reporter

Hearing all the rumors online surrounding Nintendo’s secret project, Nintendo NX, I’m interested to see how this project will bring back Nintendo fans both young and old. Hopefully, the project will be officially released this summer.

With sales for Nintendo’s Wii U coming in way below that of the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One, it seems to have failed to excite us gamers and has been a major flop in the industry.

newsrecord.org

I want to be immersed back in the world of Nintendo games just like I was when I was little, and I am hoping Nintendo NX can bring me back there.

Bunbury Music Festival - Justin Reutter | Staff Reporter

Bunbury Music Festival — the multi-stage festival that serves fans of a wide range of musical genres and tastes — will return to Cincinnati June 3-5.

The festival headlines The Killers, Florence and the Machine and — weirdly enough — Ice Cube.

I am personally excited for indie-pop band Of Monsters and Men and popular ’80s band Tears for Fears.

Bunbury has historically been a place for up and coming bands to shine alongside established talent.

“Winds of Winter” - Russell Hausfeld | Arts Editor

I hate to be that guy, but I have refused to watch the last season of “Game of Thrones” on HBO and will not be tuning in to the upcoming season throughout this summer.

I fell in love with the “Game of Thrones” series and have been up to date on the books since 2014, just eagerly and desperately awaiting the next installment, “The Winds of Winter.”

Author George R.R. Martin has technically called off any official release date for the book (after many, many release dates ended up getting pushed back). But, it seems likely that the sixth book in the series will come out this year or next, as Martin has completely stopped working with producers of the HBO show in order to focus solely on his own writing.

I am personally optimistic that I may be returning to the world of Westeros some time within the next year.

When University of Cincinnati students start name-dropping celebrities that have graduated from their college, everyone’s go-to seems to be George Clooney — and he didn’t even end up graduating from UC. What people may not realize is that there are quite a few individuals in the contemporary arts world who can call UC their alma mater, as well.

The lead guitarist of the alternative rock band Walk the Moon, Eli Maiman, studied jazz at UC’s College Conservatory of Music before being rocketed into stardom. The band — full of Cincinnati natives — formed in 2006 and released their self-titled debut album in 2012.

Since then, the band’s 2014 song “Shut Up and Dance” has reached the number four spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, and it reached number one spot on Billboard’s Rock and Alternative Songs chart.

Another CCM graduate who earned his master’s of fine arts in Musical Theater in 2000 is Aaron Lazar. After graduating, Lazar has gone on to tour with the national Broadway production of “The Scarlet Pimpernel” as the understudy for the leading actor.

He also received the Drama Desk Award Nomination for Outstanding Featured Actor for his performance as Enjolras in “Les Miserables.”

Lazar has also made several appearances on the screen in films like “The Wolf of Wall Street” and “This is Where I Leave You,” as well as in shows like “Ugly Betty” and “The Good Wife.”

Nicole Callender, who graduated from CCM in 1991, has made a career for herself in the necessary Hollywood role of the stuntwoman.

After UC, Callender studied with the Society of American Fight Directors and became a teacher.

She has been featured in many impressive, big-time movies — “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,”“American Gangster,”“Zombieland,”“SpiderMan 3” and “The Dictator.”

Straying away from the world of musicals, movies and television and

dipping into the world of design, one UC graduate stands out among many: Micheal Beirut.

Beirut is a graphic designer, design critic and educator who graduated from UC’s School of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning in 1980. Since then, he has racked up an impressive list of credentials within the community.

He was the vice president of graphic design at the multidisciplinary design firm Vignelli Associates, he has been a partner with the New York office of the design firm Pentagram since 1990 and he was the national president of the American Institute of Graphic Arts for three years.

Beirut’s work is displayed in many permanent collections, such as at the Museum of Modern Art, the Library of Congress, the Denver Art Museum and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. His most recent achievements include designing the signage on the New York Times building in New York City and designing Hillary Clinton’s campaign logo.

P. Craig Russell, a1974 graduate of DAAP, started working on comics for Marvel Comics when he was still in attendance of UC. After graduating, he carved out his name in the comic book world, becoming known for his comic adaptations of operas, plays and fairy tales.

Russell worked extensively on Dark Horse’s comic adaptation of “Star Wars,” and has received several Eisner Awards —awards of the highest esteem in comics.

THE STUDENT VOICE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI

May 2, 2016

Summer Edition

UC’s growing campus continues more diverse trend SAMANTHA HALL | COLLEGE LIFE EDITOR

As of 2016, the University of Cincinnati is at a record population of 44,251 undergraduate and graduate students.

Copious amounts of these students are not only part time, but also full time students.

Coming from all 50 states and 114 countries outside the U.S., student enrollment has a population of 54 percent female and 46 percent male, according to the UC Enrollment website.

While some students thrive academically in a smaller classroom due to its offering of hands-on activities and a more discussion-friendly environment, UC has learned to incorporate small-sized classrooms as well as full lecture halls into its teachings, with a student-faculty ratio of 18-1.

The faculty, including student workers and staff, has a total of 17,192 workers and an annual payroll of around $560 million as of 2014.

Although it’s not uncommon for a student to enroll into college with an undeclared major, with only 50 percent of college-bound students being declared, UC offers a total of 379 associate, baccalaureate, master’s, doctoral and professional majors, as well as an exploratory option to assist students in finding the best-fit major for those unsure.

Students are also offered 236 total minors and certificates.

Within the exploratory field, students are assigned an advisor, who then creates a specialized course to give each student a personalized learning opportunity.

Tuition often comes hand-in-hand with enrollment, UC’s yearly undergraduate tuition rates for in-state students ranks at exactly $11,000.

In comparison, the University of Dayton holds in-state undergraduate tuition at $37,230 and Xavier University holds tuition at $34,050 for in-state undergraduate students. Both schools are private institutions.

Student veterans are also in luck in regards to enrollment benefits at UC, with tools available such as military credit transfers, ROTC organizations, civilian training opportunities, Veterans Affairs office and fundraising events.

UC has nearly 2,500 student veterans across all three campuses.

Nearly 25 percent of students at UC are from outside of Ohio.

Of these 44,251 students, over 8 percent consist of African American students, as well as 3.1 percent of Asian students and 2.9 percent of Hispanic students, in comparison to Miami University which only has a student population of

23,983.

Miami University’s Asian student population makes up 2 percent of its population, as well as its African American population making up 4.1 percent, according to the Miami University enrollment website.

With around 4,000 international students from over 100 different countries participating in the University of Cincinnati’s programs, the increased diversity among international students is allowing for a more cultural university.

While India and China are the largest sources of international students at UC, the numbers of students from other countries are increasing, according to Ron Cushing, the UC director of International Services (UCIS).

Cushing explained how UCIS helps students to attend UC and succeed academically and personally.

“We help international students in a lot of different ways,” said Cushing.

UCIS deals primarily with the legal issues involved in having so many international students at UC. The group ensures that the university is in compliance with federal regulatory laws and that the students are following those laws.

It also works to make sure that international students have plenty of

opportunities to learn about the culture and make friends here at UC. The support for international students is obviously working, as they are very successful at UC, according to Cushing.

“Our time to degree statistics and retention rates show that they stay in a very high percentage and they complete their programs and do well academically,” said Cushing.

The number of international students at UC represents the success that they are able to find here.

“We have roughly 3,300 that are enrolled, and another 700 that are on what’s called their practical training period,” said Cushing.

Students in the practical training period have completed their programs at UC and are working in the U.S. with the help of the university.

International students are also able to obtain help from American students, with groups such as International Partners and Leaders, assisting them in feeling welcome at UC. Another student group that assists international students is BEARchats, which

is headed by Anang Dadhich, a graduate assistant at the Office of Ethnic Programs and a master’s student in Aerospace Engineering.

“BEARchats is a cultural exchange program in which we pair one international student with a domestic student and they meet every week for at least an hour for practicing English and their native language,” said Dadhich.

This gives international students the opportunity to practice English and locals a chance to learn another language, according to Dadhich.

“It has turned more into an international friendship program where pairs hangout, do things together. We have group meetings, we participate in events as groups, organize events and we go on fun outings,” said Dadhich.

Dadhich, who is from India, explained that he has had a great experience as an international student.

“Everyone is so friendly and encouraging here. I saw that people actually like to share what they know and whatever their skills are, even if it’s through a club or service event,” he said.

Social media weighs heavily on historic 2016 primaries JEFF LEVLINE | OPINION EDITOR

The 2016 primary cycle has been outlandish and memorable.

In 2008, there were entertaining moments: the “Birther” conspiracy to name but one.

But whereas in 2008 the entertainment was predicated mostly on falsehoods — Obama, after all, was not a Muslim or a socialist — the 2016 primaries are captivating because they seem real.

This blend of bizarre anecdotes and fascinating candidates — and occasionally traditional things like policy platforms — has attracted voters. Voter turnout in the primaries is the highest both parties have experienced in some time, reaching 11.7 percent among Democrats and 17.3 percent among Republicans, according to the Pew Research Center.

But aside from the real people, other groups have appeared to make their mark this election year. I’m talking about the meme-makers and the social media soldiers who have made this primary season

amusing as well as — to use an overused word — historic.

I’ve been most amused by services like Twitter, which have become vicious battlegrounds. From what I’ve seen, most of the fighting is fratricidal, done between the infamous Bernie Bros and the #Imwithher crowd. It is largely out of this Democratic infighting that accusations of all kinds of bad -isms have emerged.

The Clinton supporters usually charge the opposition with a kind of genteel racism towards black people who vote for Clinton and sexism towards the former secretary of state herself. The Bernie Bros spend their days trolling, bashing Clinton and her supporters as Wall Street shills and worse.

Once the primary is over, I worry about what will become of the legions of Twitter warriors. If the election comes down to Clinton and Trump — which it almost certainly will — I think many of them will be out of their jobs.

After all, I don’t know who the #Imwithher people will feud with once

the Bros go quiet. They’ll be without an honorable opponent. It could be because I don’t frequent the Republican wing Twitter that much, but it’s hard for me to believe that there are many members of the Trump Twitter mob for them to spar with.

But it isn’t as if social media merely brought humor to the primaries. It’s become a major source of information for all of us. I like to think I follow the news closely, but I often rely on Facebook’s “trending” box to update me on major events. The same site, along with Fox News, even sponsored one of the early Republican debates.

And more than informing, social media has actually affected real-world events.

For instance, take the recent Democratic debate in New York. It’s hard to imagine that the Clinton campaign would have finally consented to a debate had it not been for the many Tweets demanding it.

News outlets also picked up on the online discontent and legitimized it.

As the primaries roll on towards the

election, I think the influence of Twitter and other services will increase, while the amusement they offer will decrease. But if this season has been any sign of things to come, I can’t wait until 2020.

US involvement needs human rights considerations JAMES FISHER | CONTRIBUTOR

OLIVIER DOULIERY | ABACA PRESS | TNS

King Salman bin Abd alAziz of Saudi Arabia speaks during a bilateral meeting in the Oval Office on Friday, Sept. 4, 2015, in Washington, D.C.

Everyone knows that human rights are endangered in many parts of the world, but what responsibility do we bear as Americans?

The fact is that our government is supporting many regimes that are undermining human rights, and few people are speaking out against it.

But how exactly does the government provide this support?

For example, the war in Yemen, which began in March 2015, has led to the United States voting as a proxy for Saudi Arabia on the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). We have effectively prevented the UNSC from publicly denouncing the war in Yemen.

We do this largely because of the current arms deals we have the Saudi government: the U.S. has sold thousands of missiles and bombs, as well as ammunition, grenades and medical supplies, since the war began.

Several thousand civilians have been killed in the course of the war, most of them via aerial bombing by the Saudi coalition, using bombs and planes supplied by the United States. We have gone so far as to fuel coalition bombers after bombing runs.

There are two primary reasons why the United States supports these countries via weapons sales.

First, U.S. businesses make billions of dollars each year from these weapons deals, and these businesses contribute to congressional campaigns.

Many of the congressmen supporting arms deals with authoritarian regimes also happen to have these businesses based in their districts, giving them little incentive to not support these

deals.

The second reason is that many of these regimes are considered “stable.”

For example, the U.S. has supported authoritarian regimes in Egypt for decades in return for Egyptian support for peace deals between Israel and other Arab nations. Past regimes have also traditionally been “anti-terrorist” and have consequently garnered even more support in recent years, regardless of their human rights abuses.

While I understand that foreign policy cannot always be dictated by morality, it does need to make some sense. While our leaders may rail against a country that is less than democratic, such as Syria, it seems like total hypocrisy to then go sell weapons to an equally repressive regime such as Egypt.

It does nothing to help our international image and in fact invites other countries to ignore our calls for democracy or government transparency.

But students who support human rights cannot just complain about foreign governments; we must also stand up to our own. To do this, we first have to educate ourselves.

UC offers many classes that relate to human rights, and students can even earn a certificate in international human rights. There are also opportunities in Cincinnati to engage with human rights organizations, such as the Human Rights Campaign.

When we know the facts about what our government is doing and we have taken the time to study the issues, we can take action. It’s never too early to start advocating for human rights, so start now.

DAAP, CCM offer high potential at low cost RUSSELL HAUSFELD | ARTS EDITOR

Any artistically-inclined incoming freshmen to the University of Cincinnati probably already have some familiarity with the School of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning (DAAP) and College Conservatory of Music (CCM).

What you may not realize is how incredibly broke you will probably be your first year of college.

Luckily, DAAP and CCM both provide tons of free artistic entertainment for UC students throughout the year, including art galleries on campus and student and faculty musical concerts.

DAAP Galleries, which is curated

by Professor Aaron Cowan, hosts around six different exhibits each semester. Typically, there will be two exhibits displayed at a time at the two separate gallery locations.

The Dorothy W. and C. Lawson Reed, Jr. Gallery (commonly referred to as Reed Gallery) is located on the fifth floor of the DAAP building. And, the Philip M. Meyers, Jr. Memorial Gallery (the Meyers Gallery) is located in the Steger Student Life Center right off of MainStreet. Both of these are open throughout the day, and there is really no excuse not to pop in and check out their galleries free of charge as you walk across campus.

Along with free galleries, DAAP constantly holds artist talks and lectures that are free to the student body. Last year, the character designer for Pixar’s “Ratatouille” and “The Good Dinosaur” — Matt Nolte — came and gave a behind-the-scenes look into the design process of a feature-length animation. He showed off some of the “probably over a thousand” sketches he did for “The Good Dinosaur” project.

Events like this are held all throughout the school year and can be found by keeping up to date with DAAP’s Twitter and Facebook.

They don’t update their actual site nearly as much.

newsrecord.org

CCM hosts a ton of free and inexpensive events for students, including their MainStage productions throughout the year and performances by UC’s resident quartet, The Ariel String Quartet.

These events typically cost a little bit of money (usually less than $20) and provide the same level of entertainment as a show at the Aronoff Center or a performance by the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra that you could pay upwards of $60 to go see.

In terms of free entertainment, there is a ton of unique entertainment to be had through CCM. Tons of faculty from the college are practicing musicians who will perform free for students from time to time.

One example among many from last year includes Professor Douglas Knehans — the Norman Dinerstein Professor of Composition Scholar at CCM — hosting the world premier of his symphony, “Unfinished Earth” in CCM’s Corbett Auditorium.

To keep up with CCM’s events throughout the year, you can check up on their website, Twitter and Facebook.

Queen City breweries refuse to go flat SAM SENSE | STAFF REPORTER

Cincinnati’s brewery scene is growing extraordinarily fast, putting the city on the map as a craft beer hub and serving up unique brews to the growing number of local beer fanatics.

Rhinegeist Brewery has only been around since 2013 but has found just how quickly their business can grow, earning high praise in the process.

Not only has the young brewery increased its production size to just over 30,000 barrels annually, they were also awarded second place in USA Today’s 10 Best new breweries in the country.

Though they continue to expand into Dayton, Columbus and the surrounding areas, Rhinegeist still focuses on its Cincinnati roots with collaborations with local businesses, such as the successful pairing with Shake It Records in Northside for the 2016 Record Store Day. Just off of Kennedy Avenue, MadTree continues the trend of craft beer collaboration, as it paired up with the Cincinnati Horticulture Society to create a limited-release brew for the 2016 Cincinnati flower show, using locally grown flowers in the process.

MadTree — which made history by becoming the first modern craft brewery to can their beer in Ohio — has quickly made quite a name for with it’s wide selection of diverse beers and season-al brews. The brewery is also in the midst of finishing MadTree 2.0, the company’s $18 million second location in

Oakley, which is set to open by the end of this year.

Listermann Brewing Company, on Dana Avenue, had quite a successful 2015 and continues to grow as they remodel their taproom to be quadruple the size of their current one.

The love of beer definitely runs in the family though, as Dan Listermann, owner of the brewery, is in the midst of recreating the bar of his greatgrandfathers that once sat in Listermann’s Cafe, on Spring Grove Avenue.

“It’s got all the architectural elements that the old one had. So we’re kind of bringing a bit of tradition back to life,” Listermann said.

Speaking of tradition, Christian Moerlein, whose German roots run deep, also had a big year. As the first American beer to pass the strict Reinheistgebot beer law, Moerlein recently celebrated the 500th anniversary of the law.

Reinheistgebot is a German beer purity law that restricts the ingredients you can use for brewing to barley, malt, hops and water.

The brewery also underwent a $5 million expansion of their brewing facility, now allowing them to can and include twelve new fermenters, which has increased their annual brewing capacity from 15,000 barrels to 50,000.

This increase in production ability allowed the brewery, which is also the parent company to Hudepohl, to bring back the well-known beer, Hudy Amber — now Pure Lager — back into Cincinnati.
