Texas issuing gay marriage licenses despite AG opinion AUSTIN (AP) — Many county clerks across Texas are issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, despite instructions from the state attorney general that they could refuse to do so on religious grounds.

And the ones still holding out say they largely are doing so for logistic — not religious — reasons.

Counties in liberal areas began sanctioning same-sex weddings within hours of Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling legalizing gay marriage nationwide.

Other counties originally reported delaying to wait for updated paperwork or further state instructions. But many of those announced they would issue gay marriage licenses beginning Monday, including the state’s largest, Harris County.

That about-face comes despite a weekend opinion from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who wrote that county clerks “retain religious freedoms,” including any objections to issuing same-sex marriage licenses.

Supreme Court will re-hear Texas affirmative action case WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court said Monday it will dive back into the fight over the use of race in admissions at the University of Texas, a decision that presages tighter limits on affirmative action in higher education.

The justices said they will hear for a second time the case of a white woman who was denied admission to the university’s flagship Austin campus.

The conservative-leaning federal appeals court in New Orleans has twice upheld the university’s admissions process, including in a ruling last year that followed a Supreme Court order to reconsider the woman’s case.

The case began in 2008 when Abigail Fisher, who is white, was denied admission to the University of Texas’s flagship Austin campus because she did not graduate in the top 10 percent of her high school class — the criterion for 75 percent of the school’s admissions. The university also passed her over for a position among the remaining 25 percent, which is reserved for special scholarships and people who meet a formula for personal achievement that includes race as a factor.

Edward Blum, who helped engineer Fisher’s lawsuit, said he is encouraged by the court’s second look at the case. “The outcome of this case may bring our nation closer to the day when a student’s race and ethnicity is not a factor that a school may consider during the admissions process,” Blum said.

NBC cuts Trump business ties NEW YORK (AP) — NBC said Monday that it is ending its business relationship with mogul and GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump because of comments he made about immigrants during the announcement of his campaign.

NBC said it would no longer air the annual “Miss USA” and “Miss Universe” pageants, which had been a joint venture between the company and Trump. Trump has said he is no longer appearing in the television show “The Apprentice.” NBC said “Celebrity Apprentice” will continue to go on without him.

“At NBC, respect and dignity for all people are cornerstones of our values. Due to the recent derogatory statements by Donald Trump regarding immigrants, NBCUniversal is ending its business relationship with Mr. Trump,” NBC said in the statement.

Same-sex marriage ruling produces mixed reactions Tech Gay-Straight Alliance celebrates decision

By MICHAEL CANTU Staff Writer

In a 5-4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled state bans on same-sex marriages unconstitutional. As of Friday morning, all states were required to allow same-sex couples a marriage license.

Unsurprised at the ruling, the Texas Tech Gay-Straight Alliance celebrated a victory that brings more hope for the future.

Controlling the voices of the oppressors is what the Supreme Court has ruled for while giving the less confident speakers a chance at fairness, Katie Miller, president of Tech GSA and a junior nutrition major from Dallas, said.

“There’s too many people supporting (same-sex marriage),” Miller said. “It’s just the people that don’t support tend to be louder.”

Through this ruling, all states are required to grant a marriage license to any couple that applies for one, whether they are of the same or opposite sex, according to a CNN article. This ruling lifts all bans

by any state that does not allow same-sex couples to wed.

But in this ruling, there was more than just being able to marry a significant other, Braden Russell, a senior global studies major from Pampa, said. This now gives freedom to be able to live with the same luxuries as a traditional married couple would in the U.S. “It’s more like we are granted the same rights as heterosexual couples, that meaning we get to visit each other in the hospital,” he said, “like everything that a straight couple could do.”

In that legitimacy, there is a real commitment to the institution, he said. Aside from that, there was also no legitimacy toward the arguments against same-sex marriage.

Deeply rooted in religious belief, Tech GSA found there to be no political argument against same-sex marriage, Miller said. In hearing arguments, both public and private, it seemed the only backing anybody had for the ban was through religious rhetoric.

Texas government poised to fight court ruling

By MICHAEL CANTU Staff Writer

After the Supreme Court’s ruling to lift states’ bans on same-sex marriage, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has promised he will protect the religious liberties of all Texas people.

“As I have done in the past, I will continue to defend the religious liberties of all Texans — including those whose conscience dictates that marriage is only the union of one man and one woman,” Abbott said in a statement.

Through most parts of Texas, the issuing of same-sex marriage licenses is being put on hold, and in Lubbock, no applications are being considered as of Monday. According to the Lubbock County Clerk’s office, they are all still waiting on legal counsel in order to be given the go-ahead as to deny or grant any licenses.

In his statement, Abbott was adamant the court ruling would impede religious liberties and contradict the First Amendment. The governor also cited the Pastor

Protection Act, a law that protects individuals and organizations from performing a marriage ceremony that violates their religious beliefs, according to Texas.gov.

ABBOTT “The thing is, is that when you think about it just allowing people to marry a person, someone of the same sex doesn’t infringe on anybody’s religious belief,” Richard D. Rosen, professor at the Texas Tech School of Law, said. “They can continue to believe what they want. The only time that I can see a problem is if a person because of religious belief doesn’t want to cater a same-sex wedding or photograph a marriage because of their religious belief.”

In the case of refusing to work a wedding in any way, there is also the likely consequence of being sued for discrimination, Rosen said. He said the only foreseeable scenario would be if a pastor were forced to officiate a same-sex marriage.

Texas art community remembers scupltor

By MICHAEL CANTU Staff Writer

Contributing a great deal to the arts of Texas, world-renowned sculptor Jesus Moroles died June 15 in a car accident near Jarrell.

Born in Corpus Christi on Sept.

22, 1950, Moroles studied at the University of North Texas where he received his fine arts degree, according to an ABC News article. In a career of close to 35 years, Moroles was able to gain worldwide success through his work with big granite structures and incorporating the surrounding environments to wherever his artwork lay.

Moroles, who contributed two works to the Texas Tech public art collection and one to the Ranching Heritage Center, has many pieces all around the world, according to the Texas Cultural Trust. Working with granite, the artist had pieces in Italy, France, Egypt and many other countries, as well as pieces scattered all around the U.S. With his two pieces, Lapstrake Gateway and Square Spiral Arch, plus Windmill at the Ranching Heritage Center, Moroles had a

Former baseball coach Kal Segrist dies Tech Athletics not planning to sell alcohol

By JEREMY KRAKOSKY Staff Writer

Former Texas Tech baseball coach Kal Segrist died Friday at the age of 84. He coached the Red Raiders from 1968-1983 and racked up 317 victories, which is second all-time in school history.

“We lost a good friend today and a great Red Raider,” coach Tim Tadlock said in a Tech Athletics news release. “We are going to miss Kal dearly. Please keep Kal’s family and his wife Becky in your prayers at this time.”

Segrist coached at Tech after winning a national championship as a player at the University of Texas and playing for the New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles, according to baseballreference.com.

Former Tech baseball player Mike ADVERTISING: 806-742-3384

Gustafson said Segrist coached at Tech when there was almost nothing to work with.

“When coach Segrist took over the program, they really didn’t have a bunch. Nothing compared to what they have SEGRIST today,” he said. “And there was Kal Segrist doing it by himself, all through that time.”

After his coaching days as a Red Raider, Segrist was inducted in the Tech Hall of Honor and had his No. 24 jersey retired in 2010. He is one of two coaches to have their jerseys retired at Tech, according to Tech Athletics website.

at Jones AT&T Stadium concession stands

By JARROD MILLER Staff Writer

Beer and wine lovers at the University of Texas at Austin may now rejoice. In a news release issued earlier this month, UT Athletics announced the university would begin selling beer and wine in all public and private areas during its home football games. This will make Texas the second university in the Big 12 Conference to sell alcohol in public areas at its football games, joining West Virginia University.

For Texas Tech football, however, fans will have to continue to get their liquid confidence elsewhere. Senior Associate Athletics Director Robert Giovannetti

FAX: 806-742-2434

said Tech Athletics has no plans to bring beer and wine into the public sections of Jones AT&T Stadium.

“It is not currently in the plans,” Giovannetti said. “It will not happen this upcoming season at Jones Stadium.”

If Tech fans do want alcohol sold throughout the stadium, they should be prepared to wait. Giovannetti said for a discussion on alcohol sales to take place, it would have to be first approved by the Tech president, followed by the Tech University System Board of Regents.

After an approval from the administration, a lengthy process for planning and licensing would follow, Giovannetti said.

Community hosts vigil for shooting victims

officials have the right to refuse any marriages they please.

“Because churches can still choose not to marry someone,” he said, “even if they’re interracial or interfaith.”

According to a Time magazine article, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is fighting the ruling, allowing county clerks to deny issuing a same-sex marriage license if they object to it on religious grounds. Miller said she is hopeful for an improvement in Texas.

“We expected Texas to fight back as hard as they can. The largest argument seems to be the fear of Christianity being discriminated against, but no one in the LGBTQ community would want someone

to marry them that doesn’t want to,” she said. “It is sad to see that the state that I call home could be so disrespectful to a large population of underrepresented Texans, and we hope it will get better.”

Now that there is no legal restriction as to who a person can marry, many people are able to live a more free life, Miller said.

Though it is going to be a struggle for them in the beginning socially, they have all the same rights as everyone else legally.

With the decision, some people will feel a bit more open as to their partners, snowballing the will and social freedom some feel about the taboo of same-sex marriage, Williams said, and those who have

shouted out against it will be left in the dark, much like the opponents of the civil rights era.

“I feel like people will feel like it is more generally accepted and they will come out. And it will just be like a snowball effect, more people will come out and it will be more okay,” Williams said.

“And eventually, just like racism, people that are homophobic will be stigmatized.”

The ruling was a long time coming, Miller said, and the U.S. has finally accepted the fact that it will not go away. With a more open society, there is less of a chance of discrimination and more opportunity for people to live their life the way they so choose.

Decisions like this can make the Tech campus, along with the rest of the word, a more safe and open haven for anyone who wants to be a part of the community.

This is opening up the playing field not only for the students, but for the faculty and staff as well, she said.

“I think this was a long time coming, and will make it for other rights to be recognizable and easier,” Miller said. “Like as far as not being fired for being an LGBT person, or for trans rights and equalities. Just basically making campus a more trans friendly, and a more LGBT friendly environment.”

Texas↵

“Five justices on the Supreme Court have acted as an unelected legislature and imposed on the entire country their personal views on an issue that the Constitution and the court’s previous decisions reserve to the people of the States. Texans’ fundamental right to religious liberty remains protected.”

“No Texan is required by the Supreme Court’s decision to act contrary to his or her religious beliefs regarding marriage. There must be religious liberty for institutions that don’t believe in the court’s decision.

God bless.”

So with the majority of West Texas waiting for an answer from Texas officials, Hale County has gone ahead with the issuing of licenses as of Friday afternoon, according to a myplainview.com

article. Though there still has yet to be an official form that couples have to fill out, they plan on correcting applications as needed.

Regardless of how people feel about the issue, it is now the law of the land, Rosen said. Understanding some of the concerns of some people, the only judgment that will bind in all of the U.S. is of the nine justices on the Supreme Court.

Based upon their interpretation of the 14th Amendment, the majority of the court found there was no reason to deny anyone a marriage, as it is a fundamental right. The dissenting justices wanted the decision to be a political issue where states would be the ones interpreting the laws, but the final ruling shut that thought down.

However, through the court’s ruling and judgment, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is still standing strong with Abbott. According to a Time magazine article, Paxton is allowing county clerks throughout Texas to defy the ruling if they object to the marriage on religious grounds.

Even with the threat of being sued, Paxton said there are numerous lawyers and legal officials that will stand ready to debate the issue.

“The decision itself, even if people say, ‘Hey look this violates my religious belief,’ doesn’t infringe upon their ability to freely exercise their religion,” Rosen said. “They can believe whatever they want to believe, but it doesn’t harm them in any way.”

In the decision to allow samesex marriage, there is no real impediment on beliefs, Rosen said.

People can still believe what they would like, Rosen said, and there is no actual harm being done that would interfere with any person’s right to practice their religion.

But with their deeply rooted conservative background, some Texans are still on board with Abbott, including the Tech College Republicans.

In a statement, the on-campus organization make known their dismay but give hope in the thought they still have a fundamental right to their own religious liberties.

eas, but Ovations is not, Giovannetti said. While beer and wine is served in the suites, alcohol being served in the general concessions would require additional licensing or reorganization.

Amy Gulick, an animal sciences graduate student from Lubbock, said although she does not drink much alcohol, she would be happy with Tech expanding alcohol sales.

“As long as people were drinking responsibly,” she said, “I don’t think it would be a problem.”

Gulick said while the Tech crowd has a great energy already, alcohol might make the crowd more rambunctious.

Eunjee Kim, a STEM business administration graduate student from Lubbock, said, “I think it would be a cool idea, because you get into the stadium and think, ‘Man, I wish I could have a beer.’

But, thinking of the litigation side and all the other problems that come with it, I don’t think it is a great idea for Tech to take that on.”

Giovannetti said while expanding alcohol sales within the stadium is not currently being discussed, the Tech Athletic Department is continuously working toward improvements. While the department is currently busy with other projects, such as the stadium seating renovations, alcohol sales can always be discussed in future meetings.

“Every school has to look at their situation and decide what is best for them, and that is not something that has come up with us at this time. We like the situation we are in,” Giovannetti said.

“At the end of every year, we assess what went right, what went wrong, what we can do better, what we can change, and so I can’t predict what we will talk about in January.

It might come up, it might not.”

The University of Texas itself tested stadium alcohol sales in a lengthy pilot program, according to the release. Started in early 2014, the pilot program was reviewed by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, UT Police and Texas Athletics in order to be approved.

For alcohol to be served throughout Jones AT&T Stadium, a few changes would have to be made, Giovannetti said. Two food providers currently service the stadium — ClubCorp, which provides service to club/suite areas, and Ovations Food Services, providing general concessions.

LUBBOCK (AP) — An inmate mistakenly released from a West Texas jail has been caught in New Mexico after days on the run and a stop in Las Vegas.

Jail records show Ernest Ray Zavala was back at the Lubbock County Detention Center on Monday. He was wrongly freed June 23. The clerical error was discovered Friday.

The U.S. Marshals Service says Zavala was captured Sunday at a motel in Hobbs, New Mexico.

Zavala in early June was sentenced to 235 months in federal prison. He was convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm and as a career criminal.

A Texas parole violation charge was dropped. A clerical error on that point led to his release.

Authorities believe Zavala visited Las Vegas and Arizona before his capture in New Mexico.

On Monday morning, the National College Baseball Hall of Fame officially broke ground at the future site on Mac Davis Lane and Avenue O. The ceremonial groundbreaking was conducted on Monday due to the 2015 class, the hall of fame’s 10th class, being in Lubbock for their inductions and the annual Night of Champions.

Hall of Fame President and CEO Mike Gustafson said the groundbreaking has been a 10year process.

“Our first induction class was in 2006. The first visions of this came in 2005,” Gustafson said.

“The idea isn’t really that original. We didn’t invent anything here. But just to carry out this project, operate an induction of this magnitude as a group of volunteers is a big task, but it’s also a labor of love.”

The site will become the Moody National College Baseball Hall of Fame Complex, according to a Hall of Fame news release.

Now that the ceremonial groundbreaking is complete, phase I of construction will begin in the fall, Gustafson said.

The cost of the first phase is expected to total $5.3 million, according to the release.

Gustafson said it is exciting to start the project, but he is ready to begin the next phase.

BOARD MEMBERS OF the College Baseball Hall of Fame break ground Monday at the future site of the hall.

The building will be located off Mac Davis Lane and Avenue O.

“This is something that we have been working on for a while,” he said. “I wish we were actually going to be sticking shovels in the ground and getting moving. That’ll probably be closer to the end of the year.”

The entire complex is expected to be completed about two years from the groundbreaking, Gustafson said.

Former Tech baseball coach and 2015 College Baseball Hall of Fame inductee Larry Hays said he is honored to be a part of the project, but the best part is Lubbock

being the site of the complex.

“I’m really excited for what this says about Lubbock, to step up and do something like this,” Hays said. “To remember how it started with (Gustafson) as a player at Tech and (Chris) Sneed, who tried to be a player at Tech, but I cut him and told him to go be a fan. I didn’t know he was going to do this.”

The name of the building at the complex will be the George H. W. Bush National College Baseball Hall of Fame.

Gustafson said he has been

able to sit down with Bush twice and tell him what an honor it is to be able to name to the building after him.

“He played in the 1947 and 1949 College World Series.

Those were the first two College World Series,” he said. “It was wonderful to be able to sit with the president and tell him thank you for allowing us to name this for him, and he said he was honored and that the people of West Texas and Lubbock have always been good to him.” ➤➤@JeremyK_DT

Big 12 names Lammert as Sportsperson of Year The Big 12 Conference office announced Thursday afternoon that former Texas Tech forward Clark Lammert is the Big 12 Male Sportsperson of the Year.

Lammert founded and runs the Red Raider Reach program, according to a Tech Athletics news release. It is designed to have Tech sports teams involved at local children’s hospitals.

Teams increased their community service by more than 500 hours because of the program. Lammert is the second Red Raider to win the award, according to the release, and the first since 2002.

Lammert is working on his master’s degree at Tech and will work in Washington D.C. this fall, according to the release.
