COMPOST BINS INTRODUCED IN BID FOR ECO-FRIENDLY CAMPUS

BRINGING YOUTUBE TO UPITT

Vaibhav Gupta Staff Writer

A new addition to the usual decor has popped up on each floor of the William Pitt Union and the O’Hara Student Center this semester. Student Affairs and the Office of Sustainability partnered up to place compost bins throughout O’Hara and the WPU on August 16, taking the first steps in completing a greater program designed to achieve the goal of composting 50% of campus food waste by 2025. The pilot program is part of Pitt’s Sustainability Plan, first implemented in 2017, which outlines initiatives designed to make Pitt’s campus more environmentally friendly. According to the plan, this effort could assist in the greater goal of reducing the 2017 levels of landfill waste by 25% by 2030. According to Erika Ninos, sustainability program coordinator at Pitt, the extensive foot traffic in O’Hara and the WPU earned the buildings their spots in the pilot program. “These two buildings have the potential to make a huge impact on waste diversion here at Pitt since they are so heavily used by students, staff and faculty,” Ninos said. This program will add to the preexSee Composting on page 3

SGB DISCUSSES UPCOMING INITIATIVES AT FIRST MEETING

Emily Drzymalski Staff Writer

Student Government Board kicked off its first meeting of the year Tuesday night. The meeting consisted mainly of members introducing their initiatives, student organizations’ concerns and allocations. During his opening remarks, President Zechariah Brown addressed a new University policy affecting student organizations which is set to take effect next fall. Pitt plans to implement new guidelines preventing independent student organizations from using University trademarks or wordmarks such as “Pitt” or “Panthers”

in their names. University spokesperson Meg Ringler said in an email Tuesday that the changes were caused by a routine audit of student organization names, which revealed many names that are not in compliance with existing guidelines. “The review of guidelines and organization names made us aware of the discrepancies in student organization naming,” Ringler said. “As a result of these findings, we provided instructions and updates intended to clarify and ensure compliance with these existing guidelines by the start of the next academic year.”

Brown said he will meet with Student Organization Resource Center Coordinator Lynne Miller and Student Life Director Linda Williams-Moore, along with SGB Executive Vice President Anaïs Peterson and board member Eric Macadangdang on Friday to discuss the changes. According to Brown, many student organizations are upset by the changes and have been in contact with SGB, but no organizations raised concerns about the changes at the Tuesday meeting. Brown said these organizations see the possible name change as a major change See SGB on page 2

to their branding, marketing and personal reputation. SGB’s goal is to allow student organizations to keep the names they currently have. “We want to address those concerns and we want to allow student organizations to keep the name they have at the moment,” Brown said. Student Affairs spokesperson Janine Fisher said there are 639 student organizations registered with SORC as of Tuesday, 555 of which are independent and 84 of which are sponsored. She declined to provide a list of organizations, citing an ongoing audit of organizations on the list. Following Brown’s introductory remarks, board and committee chair members introduced themselves, promoted open positions on their committees and explained their initiatives for the year. Durga Ramachandra, a sophomore

economics and political science double major, serves as the chair of the Academic Affairs Committee. She said the committee will work on the policy for getting course credit for internships, as well as working to improve peer mentoring, create formalized summer research opportunities for first-year students and work with the Office of Student Conduct to place flyers about Pitt’s medical amnesty policy around campus. Grace Nelson, a senior studying political science and English literature, is the chair of the judicial committee. She said the committee will work on marketing itself as a resource to student organizations and assist organizations in the SORC-required constitution writing process. Matthew Niedoba, a senior chemical engineering major, is the chair of the facilities, technology and transportation committee. He said the committee will focus on extending the hours of the William Pitt Union’s food court to include

Compost bins are now located next to trash and recycling bins in the William Pitt Union. Knox Coulter | senior staff photographer

Composting, pg. 1 isting compost opportunities on campus, which include the bins at the Eureka Building, the Pitt Farmers Market and the Mascaro Center for Sustainable Innovation, along with other large campus events like Bigelow Bash, which has had compost bins present on site in recent years. According to Ellen Cadden, a senior environmental studies major and sustainability program associate, composting at Pitt has increased in recent years, prompting collaborations between University departments and student groups and inspiring a University-wide program. “I would say that when I was a first year student in 2016, the only compost I was exposed to was at Orientation Week events,” Cadden said in an email. “With the help of student groups and University departments, the combination of expanding Green Certified/zero waste events and hosting weekly drop-off stations has cre-

pittnews.com

ated the exciting opportunity we have today.” Ninos said the compost project will be carried out in partnership with AgRecycle, Pennsylvania’s largest source-separated composting company. AgRecycle will remove compost from the University and recycle it at an off-campus location. On a monthly basis, the University will receive statistics relating to the amount of composted material from both the WPU and O’Hara, which will help the University understand the waste demands across locations. These metrics, delivered in tonnages based on each individual compost container, will allow the pilot program to track the compost quantities. The effectiveness of the program will determine how future composting initiatives will be approached and implemented. Cadden said the initiative has also introduced the challenge of preventing any contamination in the compost bins. If the contents of the bin are too

contaminated — meaning, they contain high quantities of materials such as plastics and metals — they will not be accepted as compost and will be thrown away as waste. To prevent this, signs will be posted near the bins to remind students and staff of appropriate items to compost. According to Caden, if you are unsure about whether to compost a particular item, it is better to throw away the item in the general trash. According to the PittSustainability, some of the products that are available to compost include food waste of any kind, such as meat, dairy, bones or coffee grounds. Other acceptable items to compost include compostable dinnerware, utensils and cups certified by the Biodegradable Products Institute, as well as materials like paper towels and pizza boxes. Lynn Dang, an undeclared sophomore at Pitt, said she is proud the University is making an effort to increase the accessibility to compost bins on campus. As a member of

September 4, 2019

Pitt’s Student Government Board, she highlighted the group’s effort in aiding this move toward greater opportunities for composting in the past year. She highlights that having compost bins accessible to students on campus is a small part in the larger process of making the University more sustainable overall. “I am glad that there will be more access to the bins year round, unlike last year,” Dang said. “The University of Pittsburgh is taking small steps to make compost bins more accessible in other areas.” Cadden said the composting initiative is part of a broader effort to look at more sustainable options in the University, and that Pitt continues to make larger strides in that effort. “In just three years I’ve seen a significant shift in the culture on campus relating to sustainability,” Cadden said. “And it is exciting to have been a part of it.”

Expand the use of OERs

Mackenzie Oster Staff Columnist

As the new school year unfolds, students are gearing up and getting ready to take on the financial burden of college expenses once again. But tuition isn’t the only thing emptying students’ wallets this year, as the cost of college textbooks is also rapidly rising. According to the Government Accountability Office, textbook prices have risen 186% in two decades. The average student now pays around $900 annually on textbooks and supplies alone. With the 5% tuition increase for out-of-state students and 2.75% increase for in-state students here at Pitt, it’s important to be well-informed in order to get your money’s worth. Students should take full advantage of the resources that the University offers, especially since the University has imple-

pittnews.com

mented Open Educational Resources. OERs include a plethora of material accessible online — such as textbooks, class lessons and video lectures — available via an Open License, which allows all students to use them. The University has already taken the first steps to tackle the rising rate of textbook prices. As of January 2018, Pitt’s Student Government Board called for the adoption of OERs as well as open textbooks to help make resources for students more accessible and affordable. While this is a step in the right direction, Pitt should continue to develop and inform both students and professors of such resources, ensuring that all materials used in class are accessible through OERs and open textbook materials. If the University chose to follow through with this new implication by enSee OERs on page 5

Many students are going back to school this week, but not all students will have the same resources or education available to them. There are major differences in what each Pennsylvania school district is able to pay towards each student’s education. This has been a problem in the state for a long time, but we may have new reason to hope for change in the form of a lawsuit filed by a couple of law centers and multiple Pennsylvania school districts. Where the state government has failed to solve the problem, this lawsuit could be a step towards a solution. The lawsuit argues that Pennsylvania doesn’t meet constitutional requirements because the state doesn’t give enough money to districts to fund their schools. Districts must rely heavily on local property taxes, which causes inequities between wealthy and non-wealthy areas. The lawsuit therefore claims that the state discriminates against districts with lower property tax revenue, which are typically lower-income areas. Federal data collected in 2015 showed that across the entire country, Pennsylvania had the highest gap between how much the wealthiest and lowest-income districts in the state spend per student. Compared to the wealthier districts, those districts with the highest poverty levels received one third fewer tax dollars per pupil. This disparity comes from the high percentage of education funds coming from local taxes rather than state-allocated funds. According to the Pennsylvania School Boards Association, about 58% of funds received by school districts throughout the state came from local taxes during the 2017-18 school year, while only 38%

September 4, 2019

came from the state. The average of what Pennsylvania school districts spent on each student in 2015 was about $14,405, according to a 2018 study by the National Center for Education Statistics. This was above the national average of $11,454 that same year. These stats varied greatly during the 201718 school year for districts in Allegheny County, the lowest amount being $15,127 and the highest being $27,035 — still both above the national average. “When people say, ‘Oh, we spend on average more than most other states,’ the rebuttal to that is, ‘yes, because we have some very rich school districts that spend a lot of local money,’” said Michael Churchill, an attorney for the Public Interest Law Center, which was one of the organizations that filed the recent lawsuit against the state. “Our appropriations from the state, on average, are relatively low and we have many, many districts that are not spending the average by definition and are in a great deal of trouble.” The most recent state budget, which went into effect July 1 of this year and consisted of $34 billion, allocated $160 million more in funds for K-12 education. According to Churchill, this isn’t enough to “correct for the poverty of many, many districts.” In short, the increased education budget doesn’t necessarily decrease the inequities already present between school districts. This lawsuit, however, could be a step towards providing districts across the state with more equal funding from the state rather than relying on local taxes. Where Harrisburg has consistently failed, a lawsuit in the Commonwealth Court might do the trick.

OERs, pg. 4 suring that students are only to use accessible material through the University, the financial burden placed on students would be greatly lifted. “An ‘open textbook’ is defined as: a textbook written by education professionals and released online under an Open License permitting everyone to freely use, print, share, and adapt the material,” SGB wrote in a resolution to the University. Yet the textbooks used in each course are up to the discretion of the professor, and OERs are not going to be utilized to their fullest potential until the University ensures that professors plan classes according to material available in OERs, especially once more Open Education Resources Grants are implemented and accessible. This way, students do not have to worry about purchasing outside texts. However, many students are unaware that Pitt even offers such resources, as the majority of professors stick to using expensive printed copies of textbooks. In fact, a study revealed by the Babson Survey Research Group revealed that 58.1% of more than 3,000 higher education faculty members surveyed around the United States reported that they are not aware of the option of OERs or any alternatives to traditional textbooks in their courses. Nicole Allen, an employee of the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition, said reports reveal evidence that links high textbook prices with negative academic impacts. “Whether it is doing worse in a course without access to the required textbook or taking longer to reach graduation, it is

pittnews.com

clear that the issue of textbook costs has evolved from a simple financial concern to a threat to student success,” Allen revealed in a statement to U.S. News. “If the current system cannot provide every student with affordable access to the course materials they need, then we need a better system.” Pitt’s implementation of OERs could be a miraculous step toward more accessible higher education if they continue the advancement of such resources. This is especially true in the case of academic programs related to biology or chemistry — classes that require more costly materials and texts. As a premed student at Pitt, sophomore biology major Bailey Bower said her classes required her to spend roughly $1,000 each year solely on textbooks — not including the goggles, lab coat and other materials her courses require. “I have never heard of having the option of OERs at Pitt before or else I definitely would be utilizing those resources,” Bower said. A study conducted at Greenfield Community College in Massachusetts exemplifies the benefits of utilizing openaccess texts. Greenfield has adopted open-access texts in three of the six required general education courses, which has allowed students to go from spending the national average of $153 to as little as only $31 per course. If OERs become a recognizable and everyday resource to students at Pitt, the financial burden of higher education could be tremendously relieved. So let’s take it upon ourselves as students to spread the word about these resources, and encourage the University to continue to expand and develop the use of OERs here at Pitt to give our wallets a nice rest.

PANTHER SPOTLIGHT: KIZZA, LUND WILL BUILD ON STUNNING SEASONS

Kyle Saxon

For The Pitt News Edward Kizza: men’s soccer Pitt men’s soccer has not seen tremendous success in recent years, but make no mistake –– they’ve had a fair share of standouts make their way through the program, and junior forward Edward Kizza is one of them. As a sophomore, Kizza took the ACC by storm. He led the conference with 15 goals scored, a shot accuracy percentage of 62.2% and 30 points. His signature performance was in the ACC tournament against Virginia –– a match in which he scored both of Pitt’s goals in a 2-0 victory, the team’s first ACC tournament win in program history. Pitt traveled to Bloomington, Indiana this weekend for a pair of season opening matches. The Panthers dropped both contests — first to No. 2 ranked Indiana in a 3-2 overtime thriller, followed by a 1-0 loss to the Northwestern Wildcats. Against the No. 2 team in the nation, Kizza opened the scoring with a goal in the 36th minute. Within seconds, he buried a header into the bottom left off of a corner kick for his second score of the game. The Hoosiers went on to win in extra time, but Kizza’s knack for the back of the net was still on full display. The Panthers may be off to a winless start, but Edward Kizza has continued his stellar play. The 2018 All-ACC First Teamer appears to have improved on his 2018 season, making him a constant threat for opponents in 2019. If Kizza continues at the pace he set this weekend, a record-breaking season may be in store for him. Kayla Lund: volleyball Pitt volleyball opened their 2019 slate with three dominant wins this past weekend. The Panthers returned much of their star power from last year’s team, and are favored to win the ACC conference for the third straight season.

pittnews.com

Of the standout performers for Pitt, perhaps the most notable was junior Kayla Lund. The 2018 First Team All-ACC selection picked up exactly where she left off last season, recording 29 kills, 21 digs, three service aces and 33 total points across Pitt’s three matches. Lund continues to display her most impressive and valuable quality on the court –– versatility. In 2018, she led the team in kills, aces and doubledoubles, a combination of kills and digs. This past weekend, she paced the team in kills and digs. Her wide-ranging arsenal of skills makes her the team’s most integral member. The outside hitter certainly needed a strong showing to start out the season, as she suffered a leg injury in the first round of the NCAA tournament last year. This largely contributed to Pitt’s second round tournament exit, and surely gave Lund extra motivation coming into the year. Pitt’s 2018 breakout superstar will look to build on an already phenomenal career. The 6-foot tall Lund is set to anchor the Pitt team with ACC and National title hopes in 2019. Judging by her stellar first weekend, Lund’s third season with the Panthers is bound to be special. Deslin Alexandre: football This August, star junior defensive end Rashad Weaver went down with a season-ending knee injury during training camp. Panthers head coach Pat Narduzzi had a choice –– to alter his defensive scheme completely, or to trust his personnel. He decided upon the latter and after just one game, it appears he made the right choice. Deslin Alexandre’s name entered into the spotlight when Pat Narduzzi released the depth chart ahead of the season opener vs. Virginia. The 6-foot4, 265-pound redshirt sophomore never saw a starting role last year, though he did play in 13 games. This season he faces a much taller task –– filling the See Spotlight on page 7

Former Panther Zeuch weathers star-studded Braves lineup in MLB debut

Stephen Thompson Assistant Sports Editor

The Toronto Blue Jays currently sit in baseball’s basement. They own a record of 55-84, fifth-worst in all of baseball, and over the summer decided to dip into a loaded farm system. Blue Jays fans had already witnessed the debuts of future stars like Vladamir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette, but Tuesday night featured the latest addition to Toronto’s youth movement — former Pitt Panther TJ Zeuch. Zeuch became the highest draft pick in Pitt baseball history when he was drafted 21st overall by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2016. Since then he has spent his time working up Toronto’s minor league system, trying to earn a spot in the majors. Just more than two weeks ago,

Zeuch made national headlines when he tossed a no-hitter for Toronto’s Triple-A affiliate, the Buffalo Bisons. For the first time in his young career, Zeuch, the Blue Jay’s No. 17 ranked prospect, took the mound on Tuesday. Fresh off that historic performance, the former Panther and 2016 first-round draft pick made his Major League debut on Tuesday night against the Atlanta Braves. Toronto elected to use an opener on Tuesday night, meaning that 29-yearold Wilmer Font started on the mound. After one inning, he was pulled in favor of Zeuch, who took over in the bottom of the second inning. After Font surrendered two runs in the opening frame, Zeuch took the mound for the first time — already in a hole. But once he toed the rubber,

tence rushing the passer did not go unnoticed. Looking toward the rest of the season, Alexandre’s solid play must continue for Pitt to succeed. The Panthers looked solid on defense for a large part of Saturday’s game, but failed to force turnovers and fell apart towards the close. The staff and program as a whole seem confident in Alexandre’s ability. He has the potential to become just what the team could use –– a high-impact player.

with four strikeouts over four innings pitched. The 6-foot-7 right-hander did not throw hard — topping out on his fastball at about 93 mph — but showcased good command of his off-speed pitches. Despite solid execution, Zeuch proved that he still has a long way to go before becoming an effective major league pitcher. When facing experienced hitters, Zeuch was unable to mix his pitches enough to mask his unspectacular velocity. He worked through three scoreless innings, but Zeuch gave up lots of hard contact and it ultimately came around to bite him in his fourth inning, where he surrendered two of the seven runs his team allowed in a 7-2 loss. With that said, Zeuch’s potential makes him an enticing piece for Toronto to experiment with throughout the remainder of the season. Toronto is in the middle of a massive rebuild and Zeuch’s performance through the final month of the season will play a large part in determining where he plays next spring.
