Despite a prevailing opinion, feminists aren’t “out to get” men. Their main concern isn’t the bashing of males - it’s about the rights every person deserves and the standards that all genders are held to. This may be the modern age, but unpaid paternity leave, a 23-cent pay difference and less than 20 percent representation of one gender in a leadership position is not equality, nor is it fair. The concept of feminism isn’t even about raising or empowering women to the point of creating superiority complexes; it’s the eradication of traditional gender roles. Feminism, despite what I previously thought, is not sexism. It does not favor or bash one gender over the other. Neither men nor women are the villains, the lack of equality is the main concern. Feminism wasn’t always static, it has gone through three full movements. The initial feminism movement, known as the First Wave which occurred in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, focused on women’s suffrage and had Virginia Woolf, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony as its most

notable leaders. Lasting only three decades from the 1960’s to the 90’s, and attempting to eliminate gender inequality in culture and laws was the Second Wave of feminism’s priority, but they were unsuccessful. The Third Wave of feminism, stemming from the failures of its mid-nineties

with anyone’s condescending, misogyny or misandry (dislike of men) jokes. It refuses to accept “man-up,” “pussified,” “whipped,” “too girly” or “too sensitive” as insults. It says, “Hire me because I would be a great asset to your company, not another great ass in the office.” It demands that men be held to

Their main concern isn’t the bashing of males - it’s about the rights every person deserves and the standards that all genders are held to. Jon Nutt/The Pan American predecessors, carries into the present and attempts to rectify what the Second Wave started. Third Wave feminists not only fight for gender rights equality, but equality for women of color such as Gloria Anzaldúa, Maxine Hong Kingston and Audre Lorde. Feminism has nothing to do with how much hair is on your body, where you belong or how much clothing you are wearing. Feminism takes appropriated and traditional “gender roles” and tosses them out the window. Feminism respects a man or woman who refuses to put up

the same standards as women and vice versa. It eradicates the notion that women can’t understand comics or sports and can’t have motorcycles or guns. It reaffirms that there are a vast majority of men that respect women and are not sex-crazed animals. It confirms that women are worth more than their appearances and are rational and strong, capable humans. Out of everything, feminism is about respect - respect for wellmeaning men and women. Now before you accuse me of menstruating or leaving my post in the kitchen, ask yourself: why might you need feminism?

Battleground Texas responds to concern over Young Democrats situation

New program in disaster studies to be developed

By Susan Gonzalez The Pan American

In the wake of the total of 4 to 7 inches of rain that hit the Lower Rio Grande Valley in the last two weeks, courtesy of Tropical Storm Ingrid, the topic of natural disasters is at the forefront. At UTPA, a new master’s degree program in disaster studies will tackle the subject, examining hurricanes and other disasters. In the program, a disaster is defined as a physical threat that happens in the presence of a vulnerable human population, according to William Donner, an associate professor in the department of sociology and anthropology. Therefore, the program will not only focus on natural disasters, but will also include technological and terror-related occurrences such as chemical spills, bombings and school shootings. “For instance, a very strong tornado may touch down in an empty field or alternatively strike a well-prepared, highly-resilient community, resulting in no fatalities,” said Donner, who is helping launch the program. “On the other hand, densely populated, underprepared communities may experience dozens of casualties if struck by a mod-

erate or even weak tornado.” The degree, expected to be approved in spring 2014, will be part of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences and interdisciplinary in nature, meaning it will relate to more than one branch of study. The focus of study will be on the social and economic impacts of disasters, such as how impoverished regions recover from disasters or the financial cost of resulting physical damage. “One only needs to focus on the Indian Ocean tsunami, Hurricanes Katrina and Sandy, as well as 9/11, to see how these events impact societies throughout the world,” said Havidan Rodriguez, provost and vice president for academic affairs. The number, scope and type of occurrences worldwide is one aspect the program’s courses will explore. For example, during the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004, an undersea earthquake occurred. The epicenter was off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. It triggered a series of tsunamis that affected contiguous land masses, including Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India and Thailand. More than 230,000 people in 14 countries

died as a result. In addition, the unprecedented growth in the proportion of the population that is exposed to hazards will be another topic of interest. According to a 2012 report by the United Nations, almost 890 million people in the world live in cities that are at risk from at least one major natural disaster, which translates to about 60 percent of people in all urban areas. Students in the program, developed by Rodriguez, Donner and Walter Diaz, dean of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, will examine the expanding integration of natural science into emergency management research and practice. “The aim of the program is to train graduates in the management of a broad range of threats,” Donner said. In order to achieve this, tentative courses may include disasters and society, emergency management, geographic information systems in disaster and interdisciplinary disaster studies. Other requirements may include classes in the natural sciences, government, communication and culture. Due to the degree’s flexibil-

ity, a student will be equipped to find positions in emergency management, floodplain management or public safety, Donner said. It will also prepare graduates to pursue doctorates in programs in related fields. In addition, students interested in pursuing this program may find classes in statistics, geographic information and social sciences helpful. Natural sciences, especially those addressing hazards, such as meteorology and seismology, may also be beneficial, he added. “As the program evolves, scholars from other departments will be integrated into the program,” Donner said. There are a few programs of this nature around the country. For example, the State University of New York at New Paltz offers a minor in disaster studies and the University of Southern Mississippi offers a certificate in the same area of study. But this program will be the first of its kind in the University of Texas System. Rodriguez, whose academic specialty is in disaster studies, hopes to “develop a strong interdisciplinary program that will serve as a national model.”

According to Texas Penal Code Section 22.021, sexual assault of a child is aggravated if the child is under 14 years of age, if a deadly weapon is used, or serious bodily injury is threatened.

Battleground Texas, a state and federal Political Action Committee founded with the goal of making Texas a swing state, released a statement to The Pan American in response to concern regarding the student president of the Young Democrats at UTPA, Billy Wayne Johnson. It was made public Sept. 23 that 36-year-old Johnson is a registered sex offender. Johnson helped Battleground Texas register voters earlier this month through the Young Democrats organization, according to a photo on the group’s Facebook page. Jenn Brown, executive director of Battleground Texas, thanked Johnson for his work via Twitter. “Battleground Texas is working with students on more than 20 college campuses,” the statement said. “While we carefully vet our staff and full-time fellows, we’re not able to do the same for the thousands of volunteers working with our organization or partners across the state.

ticed that others tend to involuntarily lose touch with their roots because of outside influences, such as music and American education. “I was raised in McAllen and most of my fraternity brothers are from La Joya, Palmview, the Mission area,” the 21-year-old said. “The way they are is really different from the way my friends are from McAllen. In McAllen, I guess because of the area, I would see people lose their Hispanic heritage quickly because they were trying to fit in with everybody else.” He believes that Hispanics are trying to adapt to the changes in their society. They lose their heritage as time wears on. Despite the transformations that his peers have gone through, Garcia said his culture means a lot to him and he won’t let go of traditions. Sometimes, he even mixes his Mexican and American backgrounds. “I’ve seen people put others down for being Hispanic, and I use that as my fuel,” he said. “My parents came from nothing. They didn’t even finish middle school. So, I’m able to say that I came from that, but I’m now all the way here. It’s how Drake says, ‘We started from the bottom, now we’re here.’” Garcia shows pride in his fraternity and gives the University credit for its involvement in student cultures. “As far as Hispanic Heritage Month, I see a lot of (pride) at Pan Am as well. People are still losing their roots, but we still have this one month devoted to Hispanic Heritage,” he said. “It’s dedicated to show people and remind them where they come from.”

As of fall 2012, 89.2 percent of UTPA’s student population is Hispanic, according to the University’s Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness. So, an ongoing holiday could be of interest to many people on campus. Every year, Hispanic Heritage Month runs from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15. The former date is Independence Day for Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua; Mexico’s Independence Day is Sept. 16. President Lyndon B. Johnson created the observation of Hispanic culture in 1968 and 20 years later, President Ronald Reagan expanded it to a full 30 days. Throughout the month, Americans hold special festivities to celebrate the cultures of Hispanics, or people of Spanish, Mexican and Central and South American descent. Salsa music, dances and other forms of Hispanic music are featured to honor the month. UTPA has hosted several events since the month began such as dances and movie showings. Phi Iota Alpha, a fraternity at the University, aims its efforts at the Hispanic community, according to its vice president, Mario Garcia. The civil engineering major said the fraternity has plans for a loteria, a Mexican bingo game, for a charity night during Hispanic Heritage Month to help the United Nations Children’s Fund. “What we’re trying to do is get people to bring their own change to play with and at the end of the night, they will donate it, and that will go towards UNICEF,” he explained. When it comes to Hispanic heritage, the Reynosa-born student no-

Story by Audry Ocañas Photos by Adrian Castillo The Pan American Two rival families compete in a dance battle that decides the fate of both in a play riddled with dances, laughs and surprises. Presented by the University Theatre Productions, the Pachanga Latino Dance Comedy will play in the Albert L. Jeffers Theatre at UTPA Sept. 25 to Sept. 29. Audience members will experience a dance battle comedy reminiscent of movies like Bring It On and Step Up, but with a cultural twist. The Cabeza de Vaca family is about to lose its ranch in Starr County and the only way to save it is by winning a dance competition against the Lopez family, who has its eye on the wellknown property. CENTER STAGE From Crawling with Monsters to Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, UTPA has seen its fair share of plays, but none like the Pachanga Latino Dance Comedy. Culture in the Rio Grande Valley is put in the spotlight in a way that hasn’t been

done much before, according to Professor Eric Wiley, writer and director of Pachanga. “We have video-recorded scenes and we have actors and dancers on stage that interact with the video. That’s very experimental,” Wiley explained. “It’s also the first time, that I know of, that we have collaborated with danc-

Each actor admits the new comedy is a different experience. One actor, Maria Alvarado, said her performance in Pachanga was a complete 180-degree turn from what she has previously done. “Not that I have anything against Shakespearean plays, but people grow up with this mentality of ‘I’m just going to go hear

Many times we’ve worked on musicals with the music department, but this focuses on the dance.” At least three of the actors in this production have worked with Wiley on Crawling with Monsters, an award-winning docudrama about Mexico’s drug wars and the children affected.

words and words and words.’ They get this idea that theater is boring and it’s not,” the theater/ TV/film major said. “This project is completely different because you have dancing, you have audience interactions, and you have a live band that adds a lot to it.” Wiley explained there is a dance around every corner in the play, displaying campiness that’s part of the action. He said

the play is heavily laden with the culture that citizens of the Valley have grown up with because most of the dances featured in the show are done at weddings and quinceañeras. The dancers already knew the dances, at least in some form. According to Wiley, the ambition of those involved in the production is not only to celebrate what is already in the Valley, but to be good ambassadors for Latino culture as well. “Like the cumbia, Duranguense, these are dances people know around (the Valley). But up north, these words mean nothing to them,” the professor said. “Most of these dances are unknown to people in New Orleans and elsewhere, so that’s where we’re trying to export local culture to and show the richness of the Valley’s culture.” The Pachanga Latino Dance Comedy will perform nationally, making its way to New Orleans’ Fringe Festival, which is an experimental theater festival held in November. The comedy production then plans to perform elsewhere, such as the Luminaria in San Antonio, an annual onenight arts fair.

SHALL WE DANCE? The cast had been rehearsing every day since Sept. 3 and may be well prepared, but they haven’t had much time for their loved ones. “Sometimes I don’t get to see my family,” said Anna Tirado, one of the protagonists and co-writer of the comedy. “I get home and they’re already asleep and when I wake up, they’re already gone. But we love to be here; we love what we’re doing.” The production of the comedy keeps the audience in mind every step of the way. Actors, such as Tirado, mention they not only want to uplift the spirits of those watching the play, but also hope to create a desire in them to be more involved with theater. “We want the audience to take away happiness, a hunger to come and see another play about us, something similar to Pachanga,” the Hidalgo native said. “We want (the audience) to laugh with us, dance with us and enjoy every part of the play.”

By Marco Torres The Pan American Fresh from Chicago, the UTPA men’s and women’s golf teams completed the Chicago State University Cougar Classic/ Invitational. Ricky Solis of McAllen finished with a one-over twoday score of 145 (75, 70) to take the individual championship. He finished one stroke ahead of Green Bay’s Joe Collard, Loyola-Chicago’s Alex Cusumano and Ben Holm, who each shot a two-day score of 146. The Broncs as a team shot a final-round team score of 297 to finish in second place with a two-day total of 598, five strokes ahead of St. Xavier at 603. Green Bay won the team championship with a final round 294 for a two-day total of 592. The Bronc men’s team shot a team score of 301 and stood in

second place after the first round of the event at Harborside International Golf Course. As a team, the Broncs were three strokes behind Green Bay, who shot a first-round score of 298, for first. Next for men’s golf is a meet hosted by Houston Baptist University in Missouri City, Sept. 30-Oct. 1. The women’s team finished the two-day Chicago event Sept. 16 in fifth place, 10 strokes behind fourth place Cleveland State University, and 23 strokes behind the winner Chicago State University with a team score of 609. “They played hard in Chicago and worked as a team. As a coach it was a stepping stone for us to see,” said women’s Coach Ofelia Lopez. “We have the ability to play even lower, they just need to trust the

abilities and skills that they have.” Junior Blake Peterson finished tied for eighth and shot a second round 74 at the Cougar Classic. The next task for the women is Sept. 30, when the Texas State Bobcats host the Challenge at Onion Creek in Austin. Lopez said she the team to go out and be competitive, play hard and earn another top-five finish. The goal is to beat the team score of 305 or under. “Right now I have several girls who have stepped up and have been playing well: Blake Peterson, Sam Garcia and Melissa Bernal,” Lopez said. “And with the addition of the others, we make up a good team. All my players can play and with more and more confidence, we can break more records.”

By Marco Torres The Pan American With conference play only two days away, expectations rise as the Bronc volleyball team gets ready to face the New Mexico State Aggies, the defending Western Athletic Conference champions. “We are using these preseason games to better prepare for the upcoming WAC season. Winning and learning how to win has been important,” Head Coach Brian Yale said. “But competing against teams that are similar to our WAC opponent’s styles of play was equally important. It’s all about preparation.” This is the first season the Broncs are in the WAC and will have a tough opponent in the conference opener. UTPA has a record of 10-6 this season and is off to one the best starts in University history, tied for second with the 1996 club behind the 1971 team with a record of 14-2. “I look for us to keep getting better,” Yale said. “We are definitely better than we were three weeks ago, but we also know that we can continue to be even better.” The Broncs will face off

against the Aggies at 2 p.m. in the Field House. This will also be the Aggies’ first conference game, as they enter with a 5-8 overall record. The program begins their ninth season in the WAC and is 7-1 in conference openers. UTPA will be ready to try and make that mark 7-2.

“It will be nice to start play at home, definitely,” Yale said. “Of our first four opponents, only Utah Valley is familiar with our gym and location. I don’t know if it is an advantage but it certainly doesn’t hurt us at all.” Yale said he thinks that a hectic non-conference schedule

“We are extremely excited to finally be in the WAC and can’t wait to start conference play,” said Maria Kliefoth, a redshirt junior middle blocker. “We have seen a lot of different teams in our tournaments with different skill sets which has given us a good idea of the talent we are up against in conference play.” The Broncs have four straight home games, starting with New Mexico State Sept. 28 and ending with Seattle University Oct. 4.

deprived the opportunity to practice enough, but over the past couple of weeks the women have gotten some of that time back in order to tweak a few things. The team has been working on certain areas of improvement from earlier matches and the practice has allowed the Broncs the opportunity to be as ready as possible when it comes to WAC games. “Winning and learning how to win has been important,” Yale said. “But competing against teams

Dodging balls UTPA dodgeball season starts up By Kristela Garza The Pan American Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge. The movie Dodgeball, A True Underdog Story released in 2004, first introduced this five-step key to winning dodgeball. Now, students use the intramural sport dodgeball act out the film as a platform to have fun. It is now dodgeball season in Bronc country and, according to Art Cabrera, the intramural coordinator, the film has brought this sport into the limelight. The game’s popularity has steadily increased among the student body. “Dodgeball was started a while back and it’s always been a good, popular, fun sport,” Cabrera said. “This is more recreational than competitive. Sure, the guys out there are competitive and they want to win and they want to play, but they’re out there to have fun.” At various times throughout the year, the Recreational Wellness Center offers a league with groups made up of men’s, women’s and coed teams. During the six-on-six games, competing teams wait on opposite sides of the court while six balls are placed in the middle of the court. To begin, each team’s players run toward the two sets of three balls and try to get as many as possible. The main objective of each game is to eliminate all members of the opposing team by hitting them with thrown balls. REALITY VS. HOLLYWOOD The movie’s story revolves around a group of outcasts that band together to save their gym. In order to do so, the group joins a national dodgeball tournament to win the $50,000 prize. Training montages and wrench throwing ensue. The Average Joes Trainer, Pappy O’ Daniel, throws wrenches at the team stating that if they can dodge a wrench, they can dodge a ball. As stated, the popularity of this film propelled the sport into fashion and now it is in full swing at UTPA. The sport became so popular, a one-time tournament was held last year at the request of the student body. There were 36 games held in one day. “The movie has hurt us and helped us,” Cabrera said with a laugh. “Because teams will come to me and ask, ‘Are the rules just like the movie?’ No, get the movie out of your head. It’s a fun, funny movie but these are the rules...” The biggest discrepancy in the film versus real-life dodge-

ball is the rule that if one player catches a thrown ball, an ousted teammate is allowed to rejoin the game. According to Cabrera, this is not the way it’s played. “(If that were true) we would never finish,” he said.

FIVE D’S Though the film does create a fun atmosphere, one should not discount the athleticism required to play. With that in mind, the equipment used for these matches are 7-inch, rubber-covered foam balls, so that, the chance of injury is minimal, according to Cabrera. “(There are) seasoned veterans,” Cabrera said. “They will dissect you; they won’t throw at you where you can catch it; they will throw at your legs where you can’t catch it. Next thing you know, boom, you got your legs taken out from under you.” Injury is the last thing on Steven Herrera’s mind. He plays on the team Gang Green and is prepared for the latest season, which began Sept. 23. The 25-year-old is not worried about the rigors or ins and outs of the sport. According to him, athletics and the five D’s of dodgeball will get his team through the season. “We will follow that concept,” Herrera said. “It’ll probably be the only strategy we will have.” Because he has almost zero experience with the sport, aside from watching and occasionally playing, he said he knows his team might be prone to a misstep or two. “I’m pretty sure we can win most of our games,” the Edinburg native said. “This is something new. I’m pretty sure we will struggle in the beginning, but in the end we will pick it up.” Just as the start

Cup, an award given every year to the team that does the best throughout all intramural sports in a given season. Some sports are kickball, handball, softball and flag football. In all sports, last year Kappa Sigma and the coed Kappa Sigma team under the moniker of the Sweethearts, took first place in the Campus Cup. This was the third year that this award was presented to the team receiving the most points throughout the intramural season. The winning group gets the honor of having its team picture and name on the Campus Cup plaque. The deadline for forming dodgeball teams has passed, but teams are still holding tryouts. If a student wanted to, they could go on to IMleagues.com, choose a sport, a team and apply. “It’s all recreational,” Cabrera said. “These games are competitive, but they are for having fun.”
