STUDENT AFFAIRS COMMITTEE APPROVES FEE INCREASE Vaibhav Gupta Staff Writer

After deliberating for about five minutes in a Posvar Hall conference room, the Student Affairs Committee of Pitt’s Board of Trustees voted unanimously Monday to increase mandatory student fees for activities and wellness.

The fee increases, which go into effect this fall, come as a result of lobbying from student groups.

The increase, the first in nearly 15 years, will pay for expanded programming for the Pitt Program Council and the Office of Pitt Services.

The bump will also benefit student media organizations such as The Pitt News and WPTS Radio. Full-time undergraduate students will now pay $100 per semester, a $20 increase, while part-time students will pay $30, a $6 increase.

Janine Faust, the editor-in-chief of The Pitt News and a rising senior English writing major, said that the student newspaper requested to become a formula group and receive money through the student activity fee due to a shortfall in advertising revenue in recent years. The Pitt News has not received student activity fee funding since 1987.

“The main reason that we are getting money is to make up for the funds that have been lost from advertising,” Faust said. “We are trying to make up for the last decade. We have some catching up to do.”

Similarly to the activity fee, a bump in the wellness fee will pay for additional student services.

The wellness fee is used to promote student health through a variety of programs offered

through the University Student Health Service, the Office of Campus Recreation and the University Counseling Center. The committee approved an increase of $50 for full-time students, who will now pay $180, and a bump of $25 for part-time students, who will now pay $90.

Specifically, the fee increase will allow for hiring additional counselors, providing counselors in residence halls, expanding existing collegiate recovery programs and offering financial literacy programs through the Office of Financial Aid. Jay Darr, director of the UCC, said that the increased funding will help the center to “meet a need to enhance our mental health services.”

Students will face another wellness fee hike in the 2020-21 academic year, with full-time students paying $230 per semester and part-time students paying $115 per semester.

A 28-year-old woman was arrested Monday after allegedly spraying bear spray at several Pitt employees in the Eureka Building on Forbes Avenue. Mary Siegert was charged with six counts of simple assault, one charge of causing or risking catastrophe and one charge of possessing a prohibited weapon.

According to a criminal complaint filed by Pitt police officer Alexander Visinch, employees in the building said a woman entered and asked several questions about a “technology center” before leaving. Several moments later, the employees began experiencing coughing, watery eyes and difficulty breathing — symptoms similar to those of being exposed to pepper spray.

Visinch and other Pitt police officers arrested Siegert after seeing her get on and off of several Port Authority buses on Fifth Avenue.

When searching Siegert, Visinch said he found a used 8-ounce can of Grizzly Tough Bear Spray Counter Assault hidden inside the lining of her jacket and a second unused can inside her backpack.

Although Siegert admitted to Pitt police officers that she was carrying the spray, she did not admit to releasing it in the building.

“Siegert informed the detectives that the bear spray periodically goes off or that she may have accidentally bumped the bear spray,” Visinsch said in the complaint. “It should be noted that the officers that encountered Siegert never saw or found any residue from the bear spray upon her clothing.”

Siegert did not post $5,000 bail and is currently being held in the Allegheny County Jail. Her preliminary hearing will be held on June 3.

INCUMBENTS WIN BIG IN PRIMARIES

HALLAM UNSEATS COUNTY COUNCIL PRESIDENT IN PRIMARY Lauren Bruckstein For The Pitt News

Senior Staff Writer Long lines snaked out of the William Pitt Union last November as more than 1,000 students showed up to cast their votes in the 2018 general election. In this year’s primary, featuring only local candidates, only 15 of 4,695 registered voters trickled into the WPU to vote for the city and county councils, school board and lower-level courts.

Among the most notable results, breakout challenger Bethany Hallam beat incumbent County Council President John Defazio for an at-large seat on the council in a tight seven-point race. But Democratic incumbents largely retained their spots in hotly contested races for district attorney and the city and county councils.

pittnews.com

The vast majority of candidates enjoyed a smooth ride to their seats, facing no primary challengers nor general election challengers from the opposing party.

Allegheny County District Attorney: Stephen Zappala vs. Turahn Jenkins District Attorney Stephen Zappala beat challenger Turahn Jenkins, a local defense attorney, by an 18-point margin Tuesday.

Jenkins, the first candidate to challenge Zappala in the primaries since 1999, ran on the platform that Zappala was too lenient on police officers who used excessive force — a sentiment many Pittsburghers have also expressed. The issue recently came to a head when former East Pittsburgh police officer Michael Rosfeld, who fatally shot unarmed See Incumbents on page 3

After a close election, Bethany Hallam won the Democratic primary election for an Allegheny County Council At-Large seat 53.54% to 46.11%, or by 7,450 votes, Tuesday night. Hallam challenged John DeFazio, the current council president and a member of the council since its formation in 2000.

Hallam decided to run for the position in hopes of making big changes in Allegheny County. She feels as though the council has not been active in supporting the public.

“They are not seen anymore,” Hallam said to the Pittsburgh Current in early May. “They are not heard from once they are elected to office … I don’t want anyone to ever say that about someone who is representing them.”

Jamie Givnish, a recent Pitt graduate, said she had not closely followed the council’s actions before Hallam’s candidacy.

“I believe she is the most progressive candidate,” Givnish said. “I think her experience recovering from opioid abuse gives her a perspective that is needed.

I liked her pro-environmental stance when it comes to shutting down the [U.S. Steel Clairton Coke Works] plant.”

Hallam has shared her struggles with opioids in various interviews, making criminal justice reform a major plank of her campaign. Specifically, she cites her firsthand experience spending five months in the Allegheny County Jail as a window into the treatment of prisoners.

Abigail Natelson, a recent Pitt graduate, said she is particularly excited about Hallam’s passion for strengthening the county’s environmental policies.

“I really resonate with Hallam’s environmental initiatives such as clean air and no fracking,” Natelson said. “These ideas impact disproportionally a lot of communities that have less income or do not contribute as much to these emissions and these negative environmental qualities, and it should be addressed, so See Hallam on page 3

Incumbents, pg. 2 black teen Antwon Rose, was acquitted in March. Protesters threw their support behind Jenkins, demanding that Zappala be dismissed.

After winning re-election, Zappala said he took note of Jenkins’ criticisms and will try to implement more progressive criminal justice policies in his next term.

“I commend Mr. Jenkins on a well fought-race and a valiant effort to advance the conversation on criminal justice,” Zappala said Tuesday night in a press release. “I am looking forward to getting back to work advancing the agenda that [voters] have insisted upon: further reduction of cash bail, more pathways toward diversion and less incarceration, advocating reform of laws determining justifiable use of force and categorizing violent acts against the LGBTQ+ community as hate crimes.”

City Council District 3: Bruce Kraus vs. Chris Kumanchik vs. Kenneth Wolfe Incumbent Bruce Kraus, first elected in 2008, won re-election Tuesday with

pittnews.com

55% of the vote. He fended off challenges from Pitt student Chris Kumanchik, who won 11% of the vote, and Ken Wolfe, Kraus’ previous chief of staff, who took 34% of the vote.

Wolfe said he threw his name in the race because he was frustrated by the “lack of progress” when he worked for Kraus in 2008 and 2009. Kumanchik ran on a pro-gun platform, opposing Mayor Bill Peduto’s proposed assault weapons ban in Pittsburgh following the Tree of Life shooting.

Kraus, who has been an advocate for public safety in Pittsburgh, supported the legislation as a matter of “moral courage” and said he’ll always take steps to ensure Pittsburghers stay safe.

Unopposed Candidates Democrats County Controller Chelsa Wagner, County Treasurer John Weinstein and City Controller Michael Lamb all won re-election, facing no challengers. Republican County Councilmember at-large Sam DeMarco III also won his primary without any challengers.

In the November general election, the top two vote recipients for county council at-large seats will be elected.

Hallam, pg. 2 I really like that she has all that in her platform.”

Another key issue for Hallam is improving how local government treats LGBTQ+ citizens.

Hallam has called for banning conversion therapy for minors, describing the practice as “graphic, gruesome and painful.” After Hallam’s announcement, DeFazio introduced a bill to ban the practice, but said he was responding to a call from the Stonewall Democrats, not his challenger.

But compared to elections taking place during the academic year, student participation was very low.

According to the Allegheny County Division of Elections, just 15 of 4695 voters registered to vote at the William Pitt Union, or 0.32%, turned out to the polls Tuesday.

Alethea Sims, a poll worker at the Union, said that the number of student voters was significantly smaller than that of past years.

“For the May elections, it really depends,” Sims said. “It matters that the students are here.”

THE TRUMP States are slowly chipping BOOM CAN’T LAST away at abortion rights from the editorial board

The governor of Alabama signed the most restrictive abortion law in the country into law last Wednesday. It bans abortion at all stages of pregnancy and in almost all circumstances, including those of rape or incest, and makes abortion a crime punishable by up to 99 years in jail for doctors who perform the procedure. The only exceptions to this ban are if a woman’s life is threatened by the pregnancy or if there is a lethal fetal anomaly.

It’s a preposterous and draconian law created with the intent of bringing the matter of abortion before a more conservative Supreme Court, with the ultimate goal of overturning Roe v. Wade. But while this law certainly is an attack against women that deserves all the attention it’s been getting, there’s a slew of other laws in states around the country that restrict abortion in smaller ways which might be even more effective in overturning Roe v. Wade.

A look into the vague, dramatic language of the Alabama law shows that it wasn’t written with women in mind — it’s an attempt to get abortion rights to the Supreme Court again. It makes the sweeping claim that abortion is the equivalent of homicide in a way that minimizes and vilifies the complex reasons why a woman might elect to end a pregnancy.

This kind of theatrical, insensitive language uses an intimate and difficult women’s issue as a ploy to force lawmakers’ personal, oftentimes religious views on not just their constituents, but possibly on women across the country — if it makes its way to the Supreme Court. However, because of how drastic this law is, there’s a high possibility that the Supreme Court might not take it on — or even get the chance to.

Because the Supreme Court has established the precedent that abortion is legal up to the point of fetal viability, which is usually around 24 weeks, lower courts will probably have to strike down the Alabama law that runs in direct op-

pittnews.com

position to this precedent. That would mean that the Supreme Court would never get the chance to rule on it.

But that doesn’t mean that women’s reproductive rights are safe and secure. The Supreme Court is more likely to take up other laws being passed around the country that restrict abortion in less drastic ways.

Georgia’s governor signed a bill earlier this month that would make abortion illegal at six weeks, when a fetal heartbeat can be detected — an absurd measure due to the fact that many women don’t even know they’re pregnant at six weeks. Missouri’s legislature passed a bill to criminalize abortion after eight weeks — again, at a point where some women don’t even know that they’re pregnant. The governor of Louisiana has voiced support for a bill that would implement a six-week ban and is likely to become law. While lower courts might also strike these laws down, states may still appeal and have their cases taken up by higher courts. And because these laws are less absolute than the Alabama law, it’s more likely that the Supreme Court might take up these cases, giving them the opportunity to overturn Roe v. Wade.

“It is not clear that the current justices who have expressed doubts about the correctness of decisions like Roe and Casey will want to take up a case that squarely presents the question whether these decisions should be overruled,” Richard W. Garnett, a law professor at Notre Dame, told The New York Times. “Instead, they might well prefer to first consider less sweeping abortion regulations and to uphold them even under the current doctrine.”

The Alabama law is a blatant attack on women, and for that it deserves all of the protest and outrage that it’s received. But it’s the less drastic laws in other states that everyone who believes in women’s right to choose should pay special attention to.

Michael Clifford For The Pitt News

Americans have been feeling optimistic about the economy for a while, and the data supports those sentiments. The Bureau of Economic Analysis recently released its initial estimates of growth in real GDP, a broad measure of all production in the economy, for the first quarter in late April — 3.2% growth, good for the third highest mark for a quarter since 2014. Moreover, April’s unemployment rate came down to 3.6%, the lowest since December 1969.

President Donald Trump’s administration and his supporters have gone to great lengths, particularly on Twitter, to remind the rest of the nation of these positive developments — more specifically, an alleged resurgence of manufacturing jobs, an economy beating growth projections and strong consumer and small business confidence.

Nevertheless, there is more ambiguity to the situation than most people are aware of, and a deeper look behind the numbers shows other potentially destabilizing factors at play.

One of the arguments used with the ob-

May 22, 2019

jective of bolstering Trump’s economic policies — the growth of manufacturing jobs — is misleading. Manufacturing employment has, in fact, performed well under his administration, but not much better than one would expect given the state of the rest of the economy, and it’s very unlikely that his tariffs — designed to protect American companies from “unfair” Chinese competition — have contributed. Plus, this boomlet, which has occurred after decades of declining manufacturing employment, might not last long.

“Over the long term, it has been true that manufacturing production has stayed roughly the same share of the U.S. economy as in the past, but manufacturing employment has diminished sharply,” Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a former Congressional Budget Office director, said. “That’s the same thing as saying manufacturing has had the best productivity growth. That’s generally considered a good news story, for the record.”

GEORGE A. ROMERO ARCHIVE FINDS HOME AT HILLMAN LIBRARY

Sara Nuss

For The Pitt News Known widely as the father of the modern zombie movie, George A. Romero and his legacy have risen again in recent years following the filmmaker’s death in 2017. His impact will soon take on new life in Hillman Library with the introduction of the George A. Romero Collection.

Romero made Pittsburgh “The Zombie Capital of the World” in 1968 when he shot his cult classic zombie film, “Night of the Living Dead,” on the outskirts of the city. His impact has inspired several local festivities in his honor, including “zombie walks,” when fans dress up as flesh-eating zombies in the Monroeville Mall and the Evans City Cemetery — where “Night of the Living Dead” was filmed.

The archive collection at Hillman will contain produced and unproduced screenplays, the original annotated script for “Night of the Living Dead,” props from Romero’s movies — such as a latex zombie head — and photographs from the set of his 1979 “Dawn of the Dead,” among other items.

The Romero Collection is the product of three different archives that Pitt acquired from Romero’s widow, Suzanne Desrocher-Romero, his daughter, Tina Romero, and his business partner and film producer, Peter Grunwald, respectively. The collection will be displayed on the third floor of Hillman Library in a multimedia exhibit after the floor’s renovations are complete. More details, including an official opening date, will be announced as planning moves forward.

The Romero Collection will be the foundation of the Horror Studies Col-

pittnews.com

Benjamin Rubin is a Horror Studies Collection Coordinator and Library Specialist at Hillman Library and is the active curator of the Romero Collection. He will help to create and manage the collection’s accessibility, work with researchers and scholars looking to use the collection and further build the archive’s contents. Rubin said the Romero family chose Pitt to house the archive due to the University’s ability to store the artifacts and continue Romero’s legacy after his death in 2017.

“In conjunction with film studies professor Adam Lowenstein, we met with the family to discuss reasons Pitt would be a good depository archive,”

Rubin wrote in an email. “Due to our ability to maintain the materials from both a preservation and security perspective, as well as our dedication to ensure the archive would be available for researchers seeking to investigate and learn from Romero’s legacy and work, it was agreed that Pitt would be the home of the archive.”

Film and media studies PhD candidate Sonia Lupher, one of three graduate students working under Rubin’s supervision helping to process the archives over the summer, described working on the archives as an exciting and rare opportunity for a graduate student. Her job will consist of documenting the items in the collection. A Special Collections staff member will then pick up where the graduate stu-

May 22, 2019

dents left off in the fall to finish up and reorganize the pieces in a fashion that they think suits the archive.

“Many film and media scholars do archival research, but it’s rarer to actually work in an archive and process a collection, so our experience is unique and we’ll gain a vocabulary that not all film and media scholars will have,” said Lupher.

The Romero Collection also shows the director’s important influence on the horror genre and how he has affected the genre since the creation of the zombie, Lupher said.

“The Romero collection is undeniably important because Romero was a crucial figure in horror filmmaking and it makes sense to keep his work in one place where it can be considered See Romero on page 6

Romero, pg. 5 as a whole, rather than scattered off to several institutions or museums,” said Lupher.

Adam Hart, a visiting assistant professor in film and media studies, is also is working on the collection alongside other Romero-related pursuits.

An avid horror fan and researcher of the genre, he helped organize Romero Lives!, a local organization that formed after Romero’s death in 2017. In Octo-

pittnews.com

ber 2018, Romero Lives! celebrated the 50th anniversary of the release of “Night of the Living Dead” and honored the filmmaker’s career through a series of events throughout the city.

This included screenings of Romero’s films and the opening of a pop-up bar in Market Square called Zombie Den: Bar of the Living Dead.

Romero Lives! will once again celebrate Romero’s work this fall. According to Hart, the event will feature some of Romero’s films at the Regent Square Theater and a gala celebration of the

archives at Hillman when it is finalized. Among the crowd will be both Pitt faculty and Romero’s family and colleagues.

“We’re following that up again with a second Romero Lives! celebration this October – once again we hope to involve the entire city in the planning and execution, and we’ve already heard from many of the several dozen organizations that took part in last year’s celebration,” wrote Hart in an email.

Rubin is looking forward to the research opportunities that will come

May 22, 2019

from having the collection housed at Pitt.

“I am excited at the prospects that this collection presents – I think it will absolutely have a huge impact on horror studies and situate Pittsburgh as a destination for all things horror. Additionally, with the archive and the larger effort to collect around horror studies, it’ll allow Pitt to emerge as a leader in scholarship around a genre that is generally neglected in academic study, despite the massive fan following it enjoys,” Rubin said.

PITT TEAMS PREPARE FOR ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN

Nick Carlisano Staff Writer

Pitt Men’s Ultimate came up just shy of its first national title since 2013 when it fell to UNC in the championship last year, while the Pitt Women’s Ultimate made its deepest run ever.

This year, the stakes are even higher as En Sabah Nur, the men’s team, looks to avenge its defeat and the Danger, the women’s team, aims to beat last season’s team record of third place.

“Every year the goal is to win a national championship. The fact that we haven’t done it is always in the back of our mind,” Hafeez Shams, a recent graduate and En Sabah Nur player, said of his class’s unreached goal of bringing a title back to Oakland.

Despite their failure to bring home a national title in recent years, the men’s and women’s Ultimate Frisbee teams have been two of the most dominant squads in the country since their inceptions. En Sabah Nur has the second longest Nationals appearance streak in the nation since 2005, while the Danger has made the tournament every spring since 2015.

This weekend, both teams will head to Round Rock, Texas, for Nationals in hopes of earning the title of best Ultimate team in the country. The 2019 end-of-year national tournament will pit 20 of the best teams in the nation against each other. Teams are grouped into four pools of five and play each other in round-robin fashion. The top two or three teams in each pool then advance into a single elimination bracket to battle for the trophy. ESPNU and ESPN3 will be broadcasting the event, and more information on live streams can be found here.

pittnews.com

The men head into the tournament ranked third, behind UNC and Brown, while the women earned their best rank ever at eight. The success of Pitt Ultimate is quite exceptional, joining the likes of Oregon, North Carolina and Wisconsin as one of a few schools to send both their men’s and women’s teams to Round Rock.

Both Pitt teams will be out for revenge in more ways than one at Nationals. En Sabah Nur will be looking to claim the crown that barely eluded it last spring. The Danger will face two schools that defeated it earlier in the season, UNC and Oregon. And both programs may face a team they were defeated by at Regionals, Ohio State, if they make it out of their respective pools at Nationals.

The loss to Ohio State marked the first time En Sabah Nur had not won Regionals in a few years — something Shams believes will give his team an edge.

“It was a wake up call,” Shams admitted. “I think us losing that game was awesome and a blessing in disguise.

Our practices have been a lot more focused. We’d love to see them again.”

The Danger wants to use past defeats to its advantage against its poolplay opponents.

“We have experience against some of those teams and we’re ready to bring it against them,” captain Katie Schreiber, a graduate student studying supply chain management from King of Prussia, said. “We watched film of the game against Oregon and I think we have a really strong chance against them this time.”

Both teams are working hard day in and day out in preparation. The men

use a combination of track workouts, weightlifting sessions and practices to hone their skills for their final contests.

On top of their normal lifting and track routines, both teams are adding in extra heat preparation — specifically, the Danger are practicing in layers to prepare for the Texas sun as well as working out early in the morning, since the games at Nationals are scheduled early.

Both Schreiber and her teammate Abby Bomberger, a fellow graduate nursing student and team captain from Lancaster said that they’re looking forward to the opportunity to compete in Nationals one last time.

“I’m very excited to lead this team into Nationals. I think our team has great energy and we all work very well together,” Schreiber said. “I’m excited to see the results that we can have because I think we’re capable of a lot.

I’m so proud of the team and how hard we’ve been working.”

Bomberger believes that the team’s toughness and diversity will be keys to guiding the Danger to victory.

“We play with a lot of heart and a lot of grit. Last year showed us that we’re capable of getting those big wins against top teams and that we’re strong competitors,” Bomberger said. “We’re both an old team with eight graduating seniors and a young team with nine rookies, and we use all of our roster, which I think gives us a huge advantage.”

The energy around En Sabah Nur is a mixture of both excitement and nerves, varying from player to player. Shams, as a player that has been a member of the program for years, is feeling good, a veteran heading into his final showdown.

May 22, 2019

“Me personally, I’m not going in nervous and I’m really confident,” Shams said. “I think the mindset that many of us do and should have is ‘We played in the finals last year and that’s the biggest game you can play in so there’s no reason to possibly be nervous.’”

That doesn’t mean that everyone on En Sabah Nur is so sure of themselves.

“If you’re a rookie or freshman and it’s your first Nationals, you’re probably going to be nervous,” Shams said. “I do think it depends on the person.”

Whatever happens this weekend, Schreiber and Bomberger said they’ll keep an abundance of positive memories when remembering their years with the Danger.

“My favorite part of this team will be the friendships I’ve made,” Schreiber said. “Abby is one of my lifelong friends and so are other members of the team. I don’t know how I would have met such amazing people without this team.”

Bomberger echoed her teammate’s sentiments.

“We’re like a family here at Pitt,” she said. “We work together toward the same goals on and off the field. I just can’t imagine my life without this team.”

With both squads in Round Rock, En Sabah Nur and the Danger will have the opportunity to be one another’s support systems, something both squads are eager to do. Bomberger and Schreiber said that the Danger are excited to cheer the men’s team on, and Shams said that the men’s team feels the same way.

“We both want each other to make it as far as we can,” Shams said, speaking on behalf of his team. “We want them to do well and they want us to do well.”
