UT offers same-sex spousal benefits By Nancy Huang

Andrew Parker, incoming faculty member in the Butler School of Music, left, and Jason Roberts, graduate student and Slavic and Eurasian studies assistant instructor, can now get married and apply for benefits from the University. Following the recent Supreme Court ruling on gay marriage, UT has begun offering spousal benefits for same-sex married couples.

@thedailytexan

UT will now offer spousal benefits to married samesex couples. UT spokeswoman Cindy Posey said the benefits available for same-sex couples will be the same as for heterosexual married couples. “They have the opportunity to cover their spouses for medical, dental, vision — they can make them beneficiaries for life insurance,” Posey said. “Married samesex couples will receive all the benefits as married opposite-sex couples.” On June 29, a campus-wide email was sent to all University faculty regarding UT’s policy changes for same-sex couples. The email was sent in light of the Supreme Court ruling June 26 to legalize same-sex marriage nationwide. All benefits-eligible UT Austin employees, including retired employees, have been able to enroll in the plan since July 1, provided they supply a valid marriage certificate. Employees will have 31 days to enroll, and employees who enroll in the future must do so within 31 days of the marriage. So far, the process of policy transition has been going smoothly, Posey said. “There’s the work that you have to do to make that happen, with computer programs and forms ... but there’s been no problems,” Posey said. Posey said she is unsure how long it will take before the policy transition is finalized.

Marshall Tidrick Daily Texan Staff

“We’re offering all the services starting July 1, but as far as actually rewriting policy and all that, I don’t have a time frame,” Posey said. “Everybody’s working on it as we speak, but I have no idea how long until it will take.” Before June 26, Texas did not recognize domestic partnerships, marriages or civil unions between individuals of the same gender, and the University did not offer benefits for samesex couples. Jason Roberts, a graduate student and Slavic and Eurasian studies assistant

instructor, said the email was a good sign. “It’s hard enough to get a job in academia, but finding two jobs at one institution or in one city is understandably even harder,” Roberts said of himself and his partner, both employed by UT. “There are a number of possibilities that can result from that. One of them is that half of the couple ends up not working in their field in order to stay together, in which case the insurance benefits, which are now extended, are absolutely crucial. The other possibility is that as a

legally married couple considerations for espousal hire become possible.” Roberts, who lives with his partner, Andew Parker, an incoming faculty member in the Butler School of Music, said he is currently enrolled as a graduate student, and that makes it harder to find a job at UT. “An institution does not hire its own graduates,” Roberts said. “But with espousal hire, it at least becomes possible to waive that prohibition and consider the graduate on his or her merits. And because [my partner and I] met here, and he is a professor and

I am a student, that would be me in this instance.” According to the email, the UT System Office of Employee Benefits is going through a similar change. The UT System also acknowledged that, if any changes to policy are not ready, affected individuals will be given a separate, special opportunity to enroll. “It impacts our life going forward, where before we were thinking, ‘Either we’re going to have to live apart for some undetermined period of time, or we’re going to have to try to land jobs

together at an institution in a different state,’” Roberts said. “But now that won’t necessarily be the case.” Roberts said that before the Supreme Court ruling on June 26 there was no discernible way for him and his partner to be able to keep their jobs and still stay together. “It changes everything,” Roberts said. “We’ve been holding our breath. I was just talking to him about this: the big challenge, the idea of marriage, and whether to do it sooner, and in anticipation of the legal benefits and the social recognition.”

Bucket lists: They are about more than check marks By Jacob Schmidt @heyjakers

We have lists for nearly everything. From groceries and shopping to chores and phone numbers, lists help bring order and accomplishment to our lives. Humans spend countless hours arranging the lists that help them make the most of the day, but few spend as much time on the list that helps them make the most of life — a bucket list, or a collection of experiences and achievements you want to accomplish before you “kick the bucket.” Bucket lists help animate our desires and discover new ones. They encourage sincere exploration and evaluation of life. Unfortunately, misconceptions lead people to devalue bucket lists. “Do I think having a bucket list is important? Not really,” mechanical engineering senior Sid Desai said. “It’s nice to have a list of goals, but you can’t do everything [you want in life].” There is no arguing that life is too short to accomplish everything our hearts desire, but that is no reason not to try. A good bucket lister understands she might not accomplish everything on her list in exactly the way she imagined. As UT psychology professor Art Markman points out, “I think part of life is about seizing good opportunities that come forward and not waiting for perfect ones.”

Bucket lists help animate our desires and discover new ones. They encourage sincere exploration and evaluation of life.

“If you look at the research on regret, old people — people in their 70s and 80s and 90s — and ask them what their regrets are in life, most of their regrets are not the things they did but the things they never did. —Art Markman Psychology professor

The fact that people are terrible at predicting what will bring them happiness makes a bucket list all the more useful. Instead of only speculating on what might make us happy, we should use a bucket list to grapple with our ambitions more directly. But, we make a bucket list ultimately to act; you only know for certain if you like skydiving or not once you’ve pulled the ripcord and checked it off your list. You will not find happiness by checking off a series of tasks, and such a narrow agenda will do you more harm than good. Instead, a good bucket list will help you develop a genuine interest in the experiences that this world has to offer. But be warned: bucket lists do not need to be as charming and cute as in the eponymous feel-good blockbuster. A bucket list is an intimate experience — it should be unique to you. The key is to plan your bucket list without fear of regret. “If you look at the research on regret, old people — people in their 70s and 80s and 90s — and ask them what their regrets are in life, most of their regrets are not the things they did but the things they never

did,” Markman said. A bucket list needs regular attention. “It’s not something to do over beers on a Saturday night. It’s something you do over time. Revisit that list every once in a while to see whether there’s stuff you discover you care about or stuff you put on it that you no longer care about,” Markman said. It should also leave room for spontaneity, he adds: “It’s wonderful to have a set of goals, but it’s also important to realize that some of the really wonderful things in life happen unexpectedly.” A bucket list is not a social yardstick or magic formula for happiness — it is not a

University to keep one-ply on campus By Jackie Wang @jcqlnwng

UT stocks its bathrooms exclusively with oneply toilet paper, and it’s not going to change any time soon. Toilet paper costs the University $174,000 a year, when just looking at buildings served by the Facilities Services Custodial Services. Facilities Services attends to 92 academic and administrative buildings on campus. They do not handle buildings served by the Division of Housing and Food Services, Student Unions and Intercollegiate Athletics. Annually, paper towels cost $201,000, hand soap costs $95,000 and garbage bags cost $3,000. The total cost for supplying bathrooms on campus with all these necessities totals to $473,000 a year. Last year, Student Government voted on legislation in support of changing the University’s one-ply toilet paper to two-ply. Although it did not pass, Facilities Services still evaluated the potential cost increase to make the switch and decided against it. Student opinion is always wanted and valued, but going to two-ply would not be possible at this time, said Sally Moore, associate director of Custodial Services. “The switch to two-ply would be an increase from

the current cost of $174,000 a year to $473,000 a year; an increase of $299,000 a year,” Moore said in an email. “To date, funding to cover the anticipated increase is not available. The amount of the increase may seem surprising, but as with all products when you move from a standard commodity to a premium quality product the price difference is significant.” With 39,523 enrolled undergraduate students on campus in 2015, an increase of $299,000 a year in toilet paper would cost each undergraduate student $7.57 a year. Add the 11,790 graduate students, and the cost decreases to $5.83 per student. Liam Woolley-Macmath, supply chain management senior and one of the authors of the resolution, said in an editorial from February 2014 that student complaints drove him to write the resolution.

“The bath tissue has been the same for years. It’s a single-ply: It’s really cheap and almost feels like a paper towel,” Woolley-Macmath said. “This seems a really silly issue to talk about, but

it has been the No. 1 complaint from students for a while at McCombs.” Although the total cost of changing from one-ply to two-ply toilet paper seems inexpensive when evenly dis-

tributed among the student population, UT still cannot make the change, Moore said. “Funding for bathroom supplies is part of the Custodial Services annual

budget,” Moore said. “There are no contingency funds allocated to Custodial Services, so I have no way to increase the amount of money spent on toilet paper.”

The Indiana Pacers drafted former Texas center Myles Turner as the 11th pick overall July 2. Turner said he learned everything he needed to succeed in the NBA while he was a Longhorn.

‘Myles’ away: Turner off to play for Pacers By Reanna Zuniga @ReannaSioux

For weeks, Myles Turner prepared himself for the 2015 NBA Draft. He went through practice after practice and extensive medical research to prove he had what it takes to play at the professional level. On July 2, it paid off. The former Texas center was drafted as the 11th overall

pick by the Indiana Pacers. On July 3, Turner sat alongside Pacers President Larry Bird and head coach Frank Vogel to address his first steps in his NBA career. Although Turner has family in Indiana, his first time visiting Indianapolis was the week before, when he worked out with the team. Bird, who has the final say as to whom the Pacers draft, said he is

excited to see what Turner can contribute to the team. “He’s a hard worker, and he’s dedicated to his sport, and we just feel like in the near future he’s going to be something special for us,” Bird said. “Even though he is young, we feel like he can play for us this year.” To keep his dream of playing as a rookie alive, Turner said he knows he needs to

improve his maturity level and paying attention to small details. “That’s a big thing that Coach [Rick] Barnes got onto me about at Texas, whether it’s footwork, defensive positioning. Just all the stuff that I’m going to need to know to succeed at this level,” Turner said. “Like Mr. Bird was saying, I’m young, but I don’t think that’ll hold me

back whatsoever. I think my body is going to mature at a high level with the strength conditioning coaches here.” Aside from being the No. 2 prospect out of high school, according to ESPN, and being a huge sign for Texas, Turner was known for his odd running style, which quickly became a concern

The USA Women’s soccer team players and coaches stood arm in arm on the sidelines, anxiously waiting to celebrate the same way they did in 1999, when the team last captured the championship. When the final whistle sounded, the players ran onto the field to hug one another and celebrate the most dominant performance in a Women’s World Cup final ever. Team USA outscored Japan 5–2 July 5 at BC Place in Vancouver to claim its third World Cup title — the most of all time. Team USA was off and running as soon as the first whistle sounded. Midfielder Carli Lloyd scored a goal in the third minute to put the USA up 1–0. Two minutes later, Lloyd scored again. Team USA went scoreless for nine minutes, until midfielder Lauren Holiday put the team up 3–0 in the 14th minute. Two minutes later, Lloyd took a shot from midfield, scoring again. Before fans could fathom what was happening, Team USA was winning 4–0. Japan was able to get a goal before halftime to give itself a fighting chance. Then Japan scored a goal in the 52nd minute to cut the United States’ lead to 4–2 Then, in the 54th minute, Tobin Heath scored to put the U.S. up 5-2 and seal the game. —Aaron Torres

for NBA teams when he declared for the draft. Leaving some wondering whether there was something structurally wrong or whether it might cause a long-term effect on the 6-foot-11-inch athlete’s knees, Turner and his advisers decided to face the problem head on. In the weeks leading up to Draft Day, Turner went through extensive tests on his running style to determine the problem. A report by the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York revealed Turner’s gluteus medius muscles inside the hip were weak, but they can be fixed with corrective strengthening exercises and workouts. Turner’s ethics and wanting to prove his health caught the eye of the Pacers.

“When you get a guy with really great character, a great work ethic and all the physical things to be special, that’s something to be really excited about,” Vogel said. Turner wore the No. 52 throughout high school and at Texas in honor of his childhood friend and teammate, Habram Rosario, who died of leukemia when they were in ninth grade. Although he’s taking on a new number, 33, with the Pacers, he said he’s glad he got to represent Rosario during college. “He was a big role model in my life and a lot of people’s lives around me. At the time, we were in eighth and ninth grade, and he was mature beyond his years, it was crazy,” Turner said. “We played together for quite some time, and I wanted his legacy to live on through college and let everybody know he’s still a part of me.”

UT alumnus adds fresh take to Italian tradition By Brandi Davis

On hot summer days, swarms of Austinites seek refuge in Téo Espresso, Gelato & Bella Vita, cooled by salted caramel, berry and pistachio flavored gelatos. Located in Austin, Téo Espresso, Gelato & Bella Vita is an Italian-based gelato and coffee shop. Founded in 2003 by UT alumnus Matthew Lee, the shop has won several accolades throughout the years, including top five out of 24 in the Gelato World Finals in Rimini, Italy. “The quality of our gelato has to do with the ingredients,” Lee said. “We use farm table ingredients like milk, peaches and black berry. If you put good ingredients, there's a better chance to produce a good flavor.” Lee said his affinity for gelato began at an early age, when he spent time cooking with his mother. After graduating from UT with a degree in business, Lee moved to Italy to learn how to make authentic gelato. “My mother was always cooking. I loved ice cream, and I realized gelato was better for you, so I looked into it,” Lee said. “Gelato seemed like a different, better product. It was a lot of hard work to start the business, but you never know what will happen.” Lee said he prides himself on the making his gelato healthier than many. He uses pure ingredients, and, unlike many other ice cream places, he said he makes his own base — the

starting point for any type of gelato. “I have two children and know that diets are instilled at a young age,” Lee said. “It's crucial to have a healthy lifestyle. When I was in Italy, I ate four helpings of gelato a day and never felt heavy because the gelato was made right.” Lee makes each flavor of Téo’s gelato. For him, creating and perfecting flavors are his favorite part of the job. He said it’s important to do the math and figure out the balance between the sugar and fats. “When I make a flavor,

it's all about that base — like that song,” Lee said. “When the flavor is right, I just know it. It's like when you go out with someone, and you just know it's right.” In honor of National Ice Cream Month this July, Téo Espresso, Gelato & Bella Vita is celebrating by holding a free contest that ends July 31. Lee said people can dream up their own flavor and possibly win 12 half gallons of gelato. “Lots of times, customers suggest ideas,” Lee said. “One of our clients said we had to do salted caramel. We created it and it sells. Another customer told us to do avo-

cado, and it just sat there.” One of Lee’s customers, social work senior Tin Dang, said he heard about the shop through a friend. He said he has thoroughly enjoyed his experiences at Téo’s and would recommend it to others. “I’ve been to a bunch of ice cream places in Austin, but I like Téo’s flavors because it’s

creamier than most places,“ Dang said. “I also liked the atmosphere because it felt more like a coffee shop.” Although Lee faced many challenges when opening his shop, he said through a lot of blood, sweat and tears, he has been able to maintain a business he is proud of. His advice to anyone

starting their own projects is to just stay positive. “I can think of a lot of times when I could have quit,” Lee said. “Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do anything. If you have the passion and desire in your gut for it, you can do it.”
