Hundreds of UA community members gathered Thursday at the basketball court of the Delta Chi fraternity to remember Anthony Andrighetto, a UA student who died in a car accident the day before. Andrighetto, a member of the Delta Chi fraternity, died and four others, including at least one other Delta Chi member, were injured in the accident on Wednesday afternoon. According to a release from the Tucson Police Department, the accident occurred at approximately 5:10 p.m. on Wednesday when a green

minivan failed to yield before making a left turn from Golf Links Road onto Wilmot Road. A green Jeep Wrangler, carrying two of the victims, crashed into the side of the van and flipped into the air, crashing into the traffic pole at the intersection. Another victim driving a black Mazda Protégé attempted to swerve out of the way, but collided with a car that was stationary in the left turn lane. Pre-business student and Delta Chi member Sam Schmid was among those injured in the accident. He was transported to the University of Arizona Medical Center-University Campus that night.

Jo Marie Gellerman, public affairs coordinator for the center, said Schmid was still in critical condition at the hospital as of press time. Michael Colletti, the president of the UA Interfraternity Council, offered condolences to those affected by the accident. “The Interfraternity Council is deeply saddened at the loss of Anthony and wishes to offer our deepest sympathies to the members of Delta Chi, family and friends of those affected by this tragedy,” Colletti said. “Our thoughts and prayers are with them. The fraternal bonds extend greater than our own respective chapters, and they have our

whole community’s support during this difficult time. We wish those recovering a speedy recovery.” Jessica Hermann, the president of the Panhellenic Council, said it was important for the greek community to unite in light of the tragedy. “Panhellenic is standing beside IFC in its time of need,” she said. “Through difficult times, we pull together in the greek community, as we have in the past. I have no doubts that we will get through this together.” Keith Humphrey, the dean of students, said students should utilize the

Ammar Gwesha’s mother couldn’t stop crying from joy when she heard the news. After more than 40 years in power, Moammar Gadhafi is dead. Gwesha, a mechanical engineering graduate student from Tripoli, said his mother was overwhelmed with emotion when they spoke over the phone. Most of Gwesha’s family began protesting against Gadhafi’s government when the revolution started in mid-February. Two of his brothers survived being shot. “Till now I can’t believe it! As if I’m dreaming,” he said. “It’s a turning point in Libya’s history. The dictator that thought he owned his people is gone.” Gadhafi was killed in Sirte, his hometown where battles have been raging for the last month, said Leila Hudson, an associate professor of Middle East history and anthropology and director of the Southwest Initiative for the Study of Middle East Conflicts. Details of his death are still emerging. According to the last reports she read, French fighters and maybe American drones hit Gadhafi’s convoy from the air. Gadhafi might have been alive when he reached the hospital, but died of gunshot wounds, possibly to the stomach. “It’s still very unclear and we don’t know how reliable all these accounts are,” she said. “But it’s the end of an era, marked by the death of Gadhafi. And it gives a sense of closure to one of the nastier episodes of the Arab Spring.” Aman Tekbali, a history senior

Movement marches from Armory Park to Campbell Avenue and back for exposure

Reciting an assortment of chants and armed with signs and flyers, about 30 members of Occupy Tucson made their way from Armory Park to the UA Mall on Thursday afternoon. The movement, formed in late September, is in solidarity with the original Occupy Wall Street protesters in New York, Since its first assembly on Sept. 17, more than 1,500 cities across the globe have witnessed similar demonstrations. While motive for the protests tend to vary between participants, occupywallst.org claims that members represent the “99 percent” of Americans working for the “1 percent,” or the larger corporations who own most of the nation’s wealth. According to participants, Thursday’s march to the Mall was an effort to spread the word and educate college students about the movement. “Hopefully the young people will become involved,” said Mark Richard, a 56-year-old Tucson resident. “We’re starting to see a lot more faces these days, which is very, very encouraging. It’s what it’s going to take to make the differences in this country.” Richard, who has been protesting wars for the past 10 years, said he is concerned about corporate power and political corruption and just returned to Tucson from Washington, D.C., where he participated in a similar Occupy protest for eight days. “Things are happening nationwide, so it’s very, very exciting,” Richard added. “It’s good to connect here at home.” Protesters for Occupy Tucson are also participating for personal reasons. Laura Dennison, a 39-yearold Tucson resident and student at Pima Community College, said she has struggled financially, and hopes to make a difference with the protest. “For a long time, I had been struggling. I applied for food stamps, and all I could get was $65,” Dennison said. “But I am going back to school now and trying to change my life. There’s a lot of problems going on in America that need to be addressed.” Claire Tyrpak, a 52-year-old Tucson resident, is also spreading the word after experiencing

personal hardships. “I was once middle-class, I got laid off, so I have a very low income through unemployment,” Tyrpak said. “I have no health care, my house is financially underwater and my 401K is tanking.” Tyrpak said she is helping with the movement’s outreach because she wants to help spread the word. “I’m hoping that students will come and join us as well,” she added. But despite the confidence and optimism of protesters, some students on the Mall were not as impressed. “I don’t really know exactly what they’re talking about, something about Wall Street, I’m guessing,”

said Brandon Welbourn, a physiology junior. “I haven’t heard of it, and now would not be the best time to hear about it, because I’m not really focused on that kind of thing.” Steve Baldwin, a microbiology junior, also said the group’s timing was inappropriate, and that protesters should not have gathered on the Mall where UA students were busy supporting the football game. On the other hand, the movement did have some popularity among students. “I enjoy it,” said Zac Maes, a physiology junior. “I support it 100 percent. Whatever the movement is, I enjoy peaceful walkthroughs like this, whatever the cause is.” Even though the movement began in September, organizers don’t plan to stop anytime soon. “This is going to help because … everything that ever came about happened through this (protesting),” Tyrpak said. “Leaders don’t bring about it on their own most of the time — it’s because people express their First Amendment right to free speech and to assemble, and it raises the consciousness.”

Online action, real reaction Police Beat By Amer Taleb

By Rebecca Rillos

Think twice before untagging yourself on Facebook. Your friend might decide to delete their relationship with you altogether. Ignoring a friend request, removing posts or not placing someone high enough on a ranking is all it takes for students to develop negative feelings toward whoever “insulted” them, said Robert Tokunaga, assistant professor of communicology at the University of Hawaii at Manoa and a communication doctoral candidate at the UA. His study found that what happens on a social networking site spills over, into students’ offline lives. All of the 197 UA and University of Hawaii at Manoa students that participated in the study said they felt an emotional strain because of something that happened to them on a social media site, with about 70 percent of the incidents occurring on Facebook. The study was published in the July 2011 issue of Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking journal. “A person’s profile is a reflection of their identity,” Tokunaga said. “So when you do something to a profile, you’re actually doing something to their personal identity.” Sarah Sandlaufer, a music freshman, said Facebook greatly impacts people’s lives and that she gets offended if someone doesn’t respond to her online. “It sounds silly because it’s Facebook but at the same time, if your best friend isn’t responding to you, it’s insulting,” she said. “It wouldn’t affect my mom because she’s on Facebook once a year.” Tim Powers, a 48-year-old history senior, said it wouldn’t bother him if someone ignored him on Facebook and that the study reflects more on the younger generation. “If you don’t answer (on Facebook) it’s because you’re busy or you’re a jerk,” he said. “But Facebook isn’t that fundamental to my relationships anyway. It probably is a generational thing.”

Snack attack leads to vending sack

A University of Arizona Police Department officer spoke with an employee from Tomdra Inc., a vending machine company, on Sunday about a burglary. The employee reported that all the items in one of the vending machines at the Gould-Simpson building were stolen. The employee said he received an anonymous phone call at 11:30 p.m. on Saturday. The person said the Plexiglas on the machine had been pushed in and all the items were gone. The employee examined the machine and said he did not yet know the cost of the repair or the value of the items inside. He arranged for the machine to be picked up or replaced. The officer found no evidence. Victim’s rights forms were mailed to Tomdra Inc.

Younger students are more likely to be hurt by an online event, said Debra CoxHoward, a mental health clinician at Counseling and Psychological Services. “It’s the end of the world for some people. It’s ‘Oh my God, they removed my tag’ and it really bothers them because they feel like they’re not accepted anymore,” she said. “It’s almost like a slap in the face. They personalize it until it gets blown out of proportion.” Students can also be affected by learning surprising news about their relationships via Facebook or placing a lot of value on how many online friends they have. Social media’s impact on a student depends on their level of self-esteem, she added. Tokunaga said the negative feelings a student develops are short-lived in most cases and that it would be an extreme situation if someone needed counseling to deal with something that happened on Facebook. Cox-Howard has a different opinion. She said she sees students weekly because of an incident that occurred to them on a social networking site, and that their emotional reaction determines the type of counseling they

and Libyan-American, said he woke up to a dozen texts telling him to turn on the TV. “I was excited but kind of disturbed. Everyone was happy about a man’s death,” Tekbali said. “I know he was evil, but he was a man nonetheless.” Gwesha said he wanted Gadhafi to be tried in court, but that he has to be held responsible for his own demise. “Gadhafi ordered his thugs to kill, rape, steal and burn. He disgraced so many people and if finally caught up with him,” Gwesha said. Brian Noble, a veteran and Near Eastern studies senior whose wife participated in the Libyan Revolution as a member of the U.S. Air Force, said he hoped Gaddafi’s death would put an end to the Libyan people’s suffering and that their days under an autocratic government are over. The Air Force veteran said the U.S. military’s involvement throughout the conflict seems to have been successful because it contributed to removing Gadhafi from power. “Had the effort failed, it could have

receive. Some students ask to log onto their Facebook accounts during counseling to show her photos of the person causing them trouble. Cox-Howard said some relationships can be ruined because of an online event, particularly when students feel they’ve been humiliated in a public forum. “Anything you do online isn’t confidential, especially on Facebook,” CoxHoward said. Justin Elrod, a physics sophomore, said it wouldn’t affect him, but being humiliated online hurts students because their identities are strongly connected to their online accounts. “The Internet is becoming people’s lives,” he said. “They spend more time online than with other people.” Tokunaga said he hopes students make a stronger distinction between their real lives and social media, and that they become more cautious about how they act online. Real consequences can develop from the online world, he said. “Social media isn’t a bad thing at all, but don’t use it to build and maintain relationships,” Cox-Howard said. “Use it responsibly.”

scene and it showed a lack of the rule of law. That’s a greater concern than whoever pulled the trigger or joystick,” she said. “As with the execution of Saddam Hussein which was captured on cellphones, it makes you appreciate the importance of an orderly justice procedure.” Watheq Al-Obaidi, the Sheikh, or leader, of the Islamic Center of Tucson, said he hoped Gadhafi would have been captured, put on trial and punished in front of his people. Many Libyan refugees in Tucson have spoken to him about the suffering Gadhafi caused them, especially if they had a relationship to the U.S. “That insane criminal ruined his country, “ Al-Obaidi said. “After all their suffering, we hope the Libyan people can start to see the light at the end of a pitch black tunnel.” Gadhafi’s downfall is a lesson to the new leaders of Libya, Gwesha said. David Shellouff, a history senior and LibyanAmerican, agreed. “I hope that the Libyan people never forget what brought them to this point,” Shellouff said. “Accepting anything less then a democratic and just society for all would be worse than leaving Gadhafi in power.”

A UAPD officer was on patrol near First Street and Warren Avenue at 1:30 a.m. on Sunday when he was flagged down by a man who reported someone had thrown a rock through a window of the Delta Chi fraternity house. The man said one of the other members may have who did it. The officer spoke to another Delta Chi member who said he had been sitting outside when he heard glass break. He then saw three men running westbound on First Street. The man did not see the men throw anything and could not identify the people who ran. The officer searched the area, but did not find any possible suspects.

Dirty dare

UAPD officers were on patrol near Highland Market around 2:45 a.m. on Sunday when they saw a man staggering as he exited the market. The man propped himself up against a wall outside and began to urinate in public. The officers stopped four women from approaching the area and then took the man away from the area. The man had red, watery eyes. He was slurring his speech and his breath smelled like alcohol. He said he had five shots of vodka earlier and some friends had dared him to urinate in public. The man was cited and released for minor in possession of alcohol in body and criminal littering for urinating in public.

Picture-perfect crime

UAPD officers were on patrol near First Street and Highland Avenue when a man ran by holding a framed composite of members of the Alpha Phi sorority above his head. When the man saw the officers, he turned around and ran northbound through the Highland Avenue tunnel. Officers caught up with the man near the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Student Center. The man identified himself and agreed to answer questions. His face was flushed and his eyes were red and watery. He was slurring his words. He said he was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and had taken the composite with the help of a friend who belongs to the sorority. He said it was a just a prank. During a search, officers found two fake identification cards on the man. The man was arrested on charges of minor in possession of alcohol in body and possession of fictitious identification. The officer took the man to Pima County Jail. The composite was returned to Alpha Phi. Police Beat is compiled from official University of Arizona Police Department reports.

UA’s support services if they feel the need. “It is always sad when a member of our community passes away and we want to support students who need assistance given these events,” Humphrey said. “Students who are affected by this tragedy should reach out to the staff in Counseling and Psychological Services or the student advocates in the Dean of Students Office.” James Mullins, Anthony Andrighetto’s uncle, wrote in an email that Andrighetto was a “great kid.” “He had a great smile and attitude,” Mullins wrote. “… He had a big heart, and

was well-loved by all family and friends.” Mullins wrote that Andrighetto’s death was a “massive tragedy” to his family. “He is and will be sorely missed,” Mullins wrote. Andrighetto’s parents were among the family, friends, fellow fraternity and Greek Life members as well as UA students and faculty who joined together for Thursday’s memorial. His mother, Donna Andrighetto, described her son as “loving,” “kind” and “always happy.” “Anthony treated people the way all people should be treated,” she said. His father, Steve Andrighetto, said Anthony Andrighetto was the “least confrontational” person he had ever known. The steps leading to the fraternity’s basketball court were decorated with

flowers, candles, Anthony Andrighetto’s former high school jersey and photos. Two large poster boards were also filled with notes to Anthony Andrighetto as well as to Schmid. The Andrighetto family plans to set up a foundation in honor of Anthony Andrighetto. The foundation will benefit the Delta Chi UA chapter, and details about how donations can be made will follow once the foundation is officially created. Steven Cox, the president of Delta Chi fraternity, said Anthony Andrighetto was the “nicest,” “best” and “funniest guy.” “Anthony loved us, this fraternity and all of you,” Cox said to memorial attendees. — Eliza Molk contributed reporting to this story.

A donor gives blood during an American Red Cross blood drive on Thursday. The Red Cross is working to compensate for dwindling donations during the holidays.

As the winter holidays approach, the American Red Cross is encouraging people to donate blood and help provide a high supply through the season. Debra Deininger, communications and marketing manager for the American Red Cross, said blood donations historically decline from Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day, as people get busy with holidays and travel. “It’s important to have an adequate blood supply built up in the weeks leading up to the holidays,” Deininger said. “Donations beginning now will help us to be prepared to meet the needs of patients relying on blood transfusions.” Deininger also stressed the importance of donating to Arizona’s local communities. “Our first priority is always to collect enough blood to supply our local hospitals, and we supply blood to 26 hospitals in Arizona,”

Deininger added. Janet Ash, software developer at the University of Arizona Medical Center–University Campus, donated blood on Thursday. She said she donates every year. “I’m also an organ donor, and I just think that if I can spare some blood and someone else can use it, that’s great,” Ash said. Steve Golyar, an assistant buyer for the medical center, said he donates every time the Red Cross truck is in Tucson. “I like to donate and do what I can to help other people,” Golyar said. The Red Cross will continue running blood drives at the UA through the end of October, as blood is a perishable, life-saving product that must replenished, Deininger said. “Every two seconds someone in America needs blood,” she said. “What we’re really looking for are those donors who are maybe only giving once or twice a year to try to give at least one more time during the year.”

In lieu of such evidence, it comes down to poor self-control or other behavior disorders that are simply being enabled by video games. Take the 2010 case of Kendall Anderson, a 16-year-old from South Philadelphia who killed his mother with a claw hammer in her sleep because she took away his PlayStation after a heated argument. Yes, the PlayStation triggered this act of violence, but I doubt the only reason he committed this heinous crime was because he couldn’t stand the idea of not being able to play it. There are nonviolent cases, too, that might support the existence of video game addiction, but there are always other underlying problems.

According to an article on gamespot.com, Lee didn’t frequently go on these marathon gaming stints, like a person who craves, needs and uses a drug they are addicted to. In fact, his marathon gaming event only happened after Lee lost his

job and girlfriend. While poor self-control is a factor in this case, two very important losses in Lee’s life most likely contributed to his eventual cardiac arrest. I can’t claim to know how he felt, but I can imagine playing video games would be a comfort after what happened to him. All speculation aside, what it comes down to is that there isn’t any proof video game addiction exists. Video games are just an easy scapegoat to pin people’s problems on, and claiming addiction is just an easy way to remove responsibility from the gamer. Here’s a better phrase for what some gamers suffer from since video game addiction doesn’t exist: video game compulsion. It’s the difference between a physical need and a mental want. Now, whether or not compulsion is a problem is a whole other conversation — one that will have to be saved for another time. — Jason Krell is a junior studying creative writing and Italian.

Students will be students Ashley Reid Daily Wildcat

ast week, Tucson City Council proposed yet another method to take care of minidorms in the residential neighborhoods that border campus. If passed, this new law would regulate that no more than five people who are not related can live in the same residence. The act is supposed to eliminate the party animal-antics of students living near campus, so that residents can return to the peace they experienced so long ago. We all know the same old-as-time argument of the “mini-dorm” phenomena: a large and rowdy group of poor college students pool their money together and move into a large house, often new ones built by developers that don’t necessarily match the historical architecture of the surrounding houses. From there, the only kinds of stories that come out of these situations are triumphs in drinking games and taking the meaning of partying to new levels. It seems Arizona has a knack for creating housing laws that discriminate against the college student population. Tempe and Flagstaff both have zoning laws that prevent sorority houses from being built. According to myth, an old Arizona law states that six or more women living together constitutes a brothel. This is a rumor, frequently passed around college towns, according to snopes.com. Obviously, this act is borderline ridiculous. Sorority houses are absolutely not brothel houses, but rather established organizations dedicated to positive morals, and Arizona’s Greek Life would never stand for such a law if it really existed. Nonetheless, there are efforts to prevent students from residing together. Perhaps City Council has forgotten what it’s like to be a college student. Maybe council members have forgotten that universities are insanely expensive and it’s hard enough to scrounge up quarters for laundry, let alone find a relatively reasonably priced place to live. It makes perfect sense why groups of students live together — it’s cost efficient and convenient. Frankly, the average student does not make enough income to live luxuriously by themselves or with one roommate. Also, does the state not keep in mind that all of this student housing is an economic stimulator? Cheap rental homes are not exactly the most highly sought after residential properties on the market. Either way, students are going to party. It doesn’t matter if you put two kids in a house or five. Nor does it matter if you restrain the sorority girls all into one dorm complex or separate houses. Students will be students. Also, not to sound like a selfish university student, but didn’t it ever cross the minds of residents who live within walking distance from the UA that there might be students living down the street? It is common sense that the closer the proximity to campus, the higher concentration of students. If someone didn’t want to live in the student zone, they should have considered living in a different location. This new magic rule of limiting Tucson residents to five people to a home is not going to take care of underage drinking or the noisy neighbor factors. Arizona should reconsider proposals that suppress university student living situations.

Pulse of the Pac This week we brought attention to the human element in the immigration debate, handed out kudos to the Occupy Wall Street movement and reflected on the importance of ousting the Lord’s Resistance Army. Meanwhile, the rest of the Pac-12 offered thoughts on overworking yourself, incredibly horrid discipline actions by parents and the hypocrisy of the anti-abortion activists. The Stanford Daily Stanford University

I’ve been working at a clothing store at the Stanford Shopping Mall for the last three weeks. (I won’t say which one, because that would start us down a path that inevitably leads to “Sorry, I can’t get you a discount.”) I’ve loved working with the staff and managers there, but the job definitely has its difficulties. I’ve had to learn colors. While I’ve mastered the standard Crayola eight pack, most of the female customers are operating with the deluxe 256 pack. (Them: “Excuse me, this dress is violet, and we were looking for it in periwinkle.” Me: “Uh …it looks purple. But I’ll go look for … a different purple.”) … But the hardest thing about working in retail so far has been quitting … Every time I thought about quitting (which is a gazillion times while folding shirts for eight hours), all of these voices appeared in my head to talk me out of it. “You’re just being weak. Plenty of other college kids are working while going to school.” “Tough it out. You just need to prioritize your time better.” “You need to make money. Don’t be a quitter.” I kept buying into these voices … It’s impossible for me to do and be everything to everyone all the time, so I need to stop pretending like I can.

As a parent, it’s pretty much a guarantee you’re going to force your kids into participating in a few unwanted family activities, such as summer road trips or family game nights. You justify your actions with lectures of “family bonding” and the “you’re going off to college soon” mantra. It’s OK, your children will eventually get it. Stuff like this is a normal part of growing up, and at some point, they’ll come to miss it, just like you did. That is, unless that forced family activity turns into being brutally beaten for two hours in a sword fight with your “Renaissance fighter” father, against your will, all in the middle of the night. And that is exactly the kind of “family bonding” the 16-year-old stepdaughter of Fremon Seay, 38, had to endure … So why exactly did Fremon Seay brutally force his daughter into unfair combat, with his apathetic wife as an audience? Discipline. “The couple told officers they punished the teen for going to a party without their permission,” reported MSNBC. Right, because that behavior is completely unprecedented in teenagers. After the initial beating, Seay, who I remind you is a 38-year-old, 300 lb. brick wall of a man, was reported as saying, “Now that you’re 16, we can fight. Go put on your armor.” — “Do’s and Doo-Doo’s: How to be an I’m pretty sure that logic wouldn’t fly even in amazing quitter” by Chase Ishii the most “ye olde” of Renaissance-era courts.

Denying a pregnant woman facing medical complications risks both the life of the child and the mother. If an individual has designated himself or herself as a “pro-life” supporter, they cannot be selective about which life they are supporting. By advocating strictly in favor of the unborn, by taking away a mother’s voice, an individual is not ultimately advocating for what is in the best interest for both lives at stake. At that point, you begin to measure the value of one life against the next, and frankly, it is not your job to play God. Whether you are “pro-life” or “pro-choice,” there is no denying the blatant inconsistencies and, frankly, contradictions the American public is creating. More than half of the United States votes “pro-life,” yet, according to the Washington Post, “only about one-in-ten (11 percent) Americans hold a ‘consistent ethic of life’ position, opposing legalized abortion and capital punishment,”… Being “pro-life” cannot simply be designated to “in favor of life only for unborn children.” Supporting life by jeopardizing another is not being “pro-life.” It is being sacrificial with the rights of others. You completely disregard the value of life and render your position discreditable. The broadbased American public has no problem with committing a criminal to death, or sacrificing — “Father injures teenage stepdaughter in the life of a mother, but it advocates for the two-hour swordfight” by David Sydiongco unborn.

s a diploma from the UA really that impressive? In class, there are always those few people who make you question, “How did you even get into college?” Or better yet, how did some of them even figure out how to fill out the application? According to the UA Factbook, out of the 26,626 applicants last year, 20,065 were admitted to the UA. That is a 75 percent acceptance rate. Compared to elite college like the University of California, Los Angeles, or the University of Sourthern California, we look like a community college. Wildcats place themselves on a pedestal in terms of academics in the state. But looking at

Arizona State University, with an acceptance rate of nearly 87 percent, we are not too far from its low standards. Additionally, the UA’s average freshman retention rate is a mediocre 79 percent, according to the U.S. News & World Report rankings. Maybe if the UA was more selective with admissions, graduation rates for freshmen within four years might rise from the low 34 percent they are now. Is our university letting in students based on financial reasoning or intellectual prowess? In January 2011, the UA proposed to the Arizona Board of Regents to raise the cap on out-of-state students. An odd idea when you consider that in comparison to Northern Arizona University and ASU, the UA has the most out-of-state students, with 30 percent of the student population coming from outside Arizona. These students pay significantly more tuition than in-state students − approximately $17,210 more. Although, out-of-state students bring diversity into the classroom, the UA is

attracting wealthy out-of-state students who are not up to par with university level standards. Since 2005, the UA has accepted 2,930 more out-of-state students. This year, the UA accepted 38 percent more non-resident students into the freshman class than in years past. The UA’s attempt to accept more students may be to cushion the financial expenses of running a university in the absence of state funding due to harsh budget cuts over the years. But the university should focus on quality over quantity when it comes to the education of its students. In letting in underqualified students, are we just accepting them for the first semester’s tuition payments? Is this higher acceptance rate to make the UA more accessible to out-of-state students, or simply just to get a quick dime? In the UA’s defense, there are many bright students admitted to the university every year that come from outside the state. With students in the Honors College and the UA’s elite programs, they are the ones maintaining the

UA’s reputation as a credible university. Future doctors, teachers, and scientists walk amongst students who will end up dropping out midway through freshman or sophomore year. Ultimately you can get into the UA easily, but can you stay in? The UA’s 79 percent freshman retention rate comes up far too short compared to our fellow Pac-12 universities. The University of Oregon’s retention rate is 84.2 percent while the University of California, Berkeley, comes in at 97 percent. In comparison to our peer institutions, UA falls towards the bottom. Out-of-state, in-state, rich or poor, the UA has to raise its academic standards for admission. The acceptance of qualified students will lead to successful graduates. Admit students who actually take school seriously, not just the ones with the dough. — Jacquelyn Abad is a sophomore studying journalism and Spanish.

On the spot

Get outside the norm So I’ve been wanting to help explain the good qualities of metal to the questioning masses. What do you think is good about metal? A positive quality I see in metal is that it offers a way in which people can be honestly expressive. Not that I am advocating mass violence, chaos, exaggeration, and madness — all the time — but people who make metal and follow metal do so because they love it. It may be shocking, but it’s the human imagination at its finest … I like it because it’s loud and bad ass. Colin Prenger / Daily Wildcat

Do you think it’s mostly an aggressive expression, or (is it more complex)? I don’t think metal is an aggressive expression. I do think that there is an angry attitude behind it, dissatisfaction and disappointment. Metal, by definition, is a renegade genre; it’s the musical creation for people who couldn’t fully express themselves with rock. It almost begs to be outlandish, but I would say aggression is in the minority group. You can’t understand the blues unless you’ve had them, you can’t fully get metal unless you’ve been outside the norm.

Arizona interim head coach Tim Kish congratulates his defense during Arizona’s 48-12 dismantling of the UCLA Bruins Thursday night at Arizona Stadium.

Arizona ends skid against FBS teams Wildcats roll up 42 first-half points on Bruins, find run game and defensive grit By Dan Kohler DAILY WILDCAT

Arizona interim head coach Tim Kish couldn’t have asked for a better start to his head coaching career as the Wildcats dismantled the UCLA Bruins 48-12 in Tucson Thursday night. In a game that featured a streaker impersonating a referee, a bench-clearing brawl that led to the ejection of Arizona cornerback Shaquille Richardson and UCLA wide receiver Taylor Embree, and a balanced Wildcat offense, one thing is for certain: The Mike Stoops era is already history. “I couldn’t be more proud of the way the seniors stepped up and provided ownership of this team,” Kish said after the game. “This team earned this win tonight, there were some great individual efforts, but this team earned this win.” At the start of the game, the Wildcats elected to receive and came out firing and orchestrated an eight-play, 80-yard drive that was capped off by quarterback Nick Foles finding receiver Juron Criner in the end zone. When the Bruins took over, the previously struggling Arizona defense managed to force UCLA into a three-and-out. The Wildcats took advantage and created another touchdown drive that was punctuated by running back Ka’Deem Carey’s 18-yard touchdown scamper on his first touch of the game. UCLA responded and caught the Wildcats off guard with a 4th-and-5 option pass for a touchdown to Johnathan Franklin that put the Bruins within seven.

After that, the Wildcats took hold and put up 28 unanswered points to finish out the second quarter. Arizona had an unthinkable 416 yards of total offense at the end of the half, only 15 fewer yards than they had throughout the entire game against Oregon State, and went into the locker room with a 42-7 lead. The fight broke out with four seconds left in the half. While only Richardson and Embree were ejected, they aren’t the only players who could face possible punishment. The Pac-12 will review the fight and is allowed to take action against anyone it sees fit. “If there’s a black mark to the game it was (the fight). We addressed that issue the entire halftime,” Kish said. “Without discipline, we have nothing. I think our guys reacted well in the second half and showed some composure.” After the break, the Wildcats came back out and continued to maintain their defensive pressure. They allowed UCLA to score on only one field goal and a safety. For the first time this season, the Arizona run game eclipsed the 200-yard mark with a collective 254 yards rushing on 46 attempts. The ability to move the ball on the ground was able to help the passing game. “It makes (our job) twice as easy,” wide receiver Gino Crump said. “It definitely alleviates a lot of the pressure on the outside. It makes it a lot easier for the guys outside to get open and run our routes.” At the start of the night, Kish’s goal was simple. He wanted to bring back the fun to Arizona football. “I had one wish for them when we left the team meeting at the hotel today,” he said. “I just wanted them to be able to enjoy playing the game again. I think that wish came true.”

im Kish stood at mid-field of Arizona Stadium with ESPN sideline reporter Jenn Brown to his left and millions watching his first post-game interview as a collegiate head coach. As he answered questions about his first career win and his team’s explosive victory, senior Robert Golden gave the 57-year-old Kish a pat on the backside. The stern, yet personable ball coach neared the tunnel, jogged toward the locker room with UA athletic director Greg Byrne, and gave Arizona fans three fist pumps as his parting gift. And with that, the Tim Kish era began. While his coaching tenure at Arizona is expected to last only five more games, the job Kish did Thursday night was pure brilliance. He was given the task of getting his team through what he called a “very emotional 10 days for us as a football program” after losing its coach of eight years. He then had the challenge of digging a sputtering program out of a 10-game Football Bowl Subdivision losing streak. Kish passed with flying colors. He brought back the flex defense the Wildcats used during the Desert Swarm days, and it gave a struggling Arizona defense a major shot in the arm. A usually porous Arizona defense held the run-heavy Bruins to 37 yards on 25 carries for 1.5 yards per carry. The Wildcats were flying around the field and unknown freshman defensive back Tra’Mayne Bondurant racked up a team-high seven tackles. The sense of fun was evident, and it all started with the mood Kish preached in practice. That loose mentality showed

NOTES

Criner, Crump shine behind strong run game By Alex Williams DAILY WILDCAT

Arizona receivers coach Dave Nichol said after Tuesday’s practice that Juron Criner needed to step up in the second half of the Wildcats’ season. Criner listened. The 6-foot-4 senior caught 10 passes for 101 yards and tied a career high with three touchdowns in Thursday’s win over UCLA, including a spectacular catch where he caught the ball with his arms wrapped around the defender’s helmet. “Juron’s going to be a focal point of our offense,” wide receiver Gino Crump said. “We’re going to go to him and we have faith in Juron. He’s been doing his thing for a while now, so for him to come out and reassert himself into the offense, that was great.” Crump also had a career day, grabbing nine catches for 103 yards, both career highs. The senior said that he had a feeling that a big day was

its previous season-high of 129 yards, which it reached Oct. 1 at USC. The Wildcat offensive line, which had struggled to open running lanes in the season’s first six games, opened gaping holes for Arizona’s backs. Keola Antolin rushed for a game-high 77 yards while freshman Ka’Deem Carey added 67 yards and a touchdown on nine carries. “Guys took things to heart this past week and came out and had a goal, which was to run the ball down their throat,” center Kyle Quinn said. “It’s the middle of the year and guys are getting comfortable playing with each other, and we’re just getting better with every game.” COLIN PRENGER / DAILY WILDCAT Quinn added that Arizona didn’t UA receiver Juron Criner makes a catch behind the head of UCLA cornerback Aaron change anything schematically, but Hester in the Wildcats’ 48-12 victory against the Bruins in Tucson on Thursday. the line took it upon itself to open coming, but he didn’t have any spe- Revitalized more holes for Arizona’s backs. cific numbers or milestones in mind.

Tutogi also got the ball in several short-yardage situations in which he could take advantage of his 6-foot-1, 250-pound frame. “They don’t give it to me much, but when I do get it, I’ve got to make something happen,” Tutogi said. “I just want them to trust me some more and know that in third-andshort, fourth-and-short, I can get the job done.”

Found a fix After struggling to find a usable placekicker throughout the first five games of 2011, John Bonano appears to be the solution for the Wildcats. Bonano connected on all six of his extra-point attempts and connected on both of his field goals, including a 41-yarder in the third quarter. “I loved the kicking game tonight,” interim head coach Tim Kish said. “We’ve got somebody. (Bonano) is on my good list.”

Red-Blue Game more than just a team scrimmage AMY WEBB / DAILY WILDCAT

Both the men’s and women’s Arizona swim and dive teams host UNLV today at the Hillenbrand Aquatic Center. It’s the first meet for the men’s squad and the second for the women, who beat Kansas at home last weekend.

on the field. “I don’t think I’ve had that much fun in a long time,” said UA linebacker Paul Vassallo. “To experience that with these guys, to know what we’ve been through and to have a moment like this, it’s pretty special.” Kish couldn’t have asked for a more impressive, yet bizarre, debut. A referee imposter turned into a streaker. Benches cleared in a teamwide brawl started by UA cornerback Shaq Richardson and UCLA’s Taylor Embree. And Arizona scored 48 points without missing a kick or extra point.

But among all the madness, Kish coached his team to its most complete game all season. The Wildcats’ offense was finally complete. They rushed for a seasonhigh 254 yards with carries from six different backs. The defense finally showed up. It forced two turnovers and collected back-to-back sacks for the first time all season. The Wildcats jumped out to a first-quarter lead for the first time in five games. The same night Rick Neuheisel may have coached himself out of a job, Kish gave his players all the tools to rise to the occasion. Kish made it clear he isn’t auditioning for the job at Arizona. “All of the focus was on this team,”

Hockey team travels to Iowa this weekend The early season schedule for the No. 22 UA hockey team has not been easy — in fact,it’s been brutal. All five of its games have been on the road against ranked opponents, and this weekend is no different. The Wildcats travel to Ames, Iowa, to take on No. 9 Iowa State in a two-game series beginning tonight at 5:30 and finishing with a 5:30 game Saturday. “We want to show the rest of the ACHA that we’re making progress, that we’re competing high on a national level,” said head coach Sean Hogan. During this difficult stretch, the UA has a 1-3-1 record, with the lone win coming against No. 21 MichiganDearborn in the ACHA Showcase. “I think the players know that we can be successful at this level against a team of Iowa State’s caliber,” Hogan said. “I feel real positive about the weekend.” The team has been relatively healthy so far this season, but it will be without defenseman Michael Basist, who tore ligaments in his shoulder. The team is uncertain if he will return this season, Hogan said. — Kyle Johnson

he said. “That’s all I care about.” He’s right. The Wildcats’ head coaching job most likely won’t be his at season’s end. But if the job Kish did in managing these players through a tough time is any indication, this season won’t be his last gig as a collegiate head coach. Bravo, Tim Kish. Job well done. “He was all over the place this week. That man I don’t think had a busier week in his life,” Vassallo said. “I asked him on the sideline, ‘Are you having fun yet?’ He said ‘Not yet, the game’s not over.’ I know this one meant a lot to him.” — Mike Schmitz is a marketing senior.

Two top-5 opponents take on UA volleyball By Kelly Hultgren DAILY WILDCAT

Arizona volleyball enters the second half of its season this weekend, taking on No. 5 Stanford tonight and No. 2 California tomorrow in Tucson. Last month, the Wildcats (13-6, 5-5 Pac-12) fell to both the Cardinal and the Golden Bears. Arizona gets a second chance with the conference’s double round robin schedule, and head coach Dave Rubio says the Wildcats are a stronger force If you go going into the secWhat: ond round. “We’re definitely Stanford vs. Arizona, better than we today at 7 p.m. were the first time,” California vs. Arizona, Rubio said. tomorrow at 7 p.m. But Stanford has Where: improved too. “I think John McKale Center (Dunning) does a really good job of building his team, step by step,” Rubio said. “His team is definitely better than the first time we played them. The hope is that people are saying the same thing about us.” Like Rubio, associate head coach Steve Walker sees the Cardinal’s improvement. A lot of this week’s Stanford talk has revolved around its junior setter, Karissa Cook, who is Pac-12 Bank of the West Offensive Player of the Week. “One thing you can count on annually with Stanford, is that its players are going to improve,” Walker said. “The setter was the national player of the week for a reason. She could easily be the best setter in the conference.” With a setter like Cook running the Cardinal’s offense, the Wildcats have to heighten their defense in order to stay in the game. “We need to take advantage of what they do, and take what they give us,” Walker said. “The bigger key is how we are going to defend against them. Last time we didn’t do a very good

job defending against the setter and defending against the quick attack.” After the Cardinal, Arizona will challenge the Golden Bears on Saturday. Rubio says the team is still very physical, but has perceptible weak spots. “Cal is so physical, but they still have some things they need to work on,” Rubio said. The Golden Bears struggle with passing and setting, he said. Even with the Wildcats’ improvement, the team is heading into the weekend without its top scorer, freshman Madi Kingdon, who is out due to an ankle injury. “It’s frustrating right now for me, because I’d like to be at full strength, but I don’t think that’s going to be possible,” Rubio said. In Kingdon’s absence, senior captain Courtney Karst says the team just needs to focus on one thing. “We have to play our game how we do every day in practice, and we’ll be fine,” Karst said.

Daily Wildcat

his year’s Red-Blue Game has very little to do with basketball. The 2011 version of the most popular scrimmage on the West Coast won’t be remembered for welcoming Rivals.com’s No. 4 recruiting class in America , nor does it have much to do with the induction of former UA greats Chase Budinger and Derrick Williams into the McKale Center Ring of Honor. And it won’t be remembered for another Wildcat great, Jason Terry, who will be recognized for his part in winning the 2011 NBA Championship with the Dallas Mavericks. In any other year, those would be headline stories. But not this one. Saturday’s scrimmage should be all about Arizona forward Kevin Parrom, who is in the middle of what is quite literally the worst month possible. On Sept. 24, while in New York visiting his hospitalized mother, Parrom was shot in his right leg and left hand while hanging out with a longtime friend in his own home when it happened. It’s still unclear whether or not he’ll play this season. Then on Oct. 16, Lisa Williams, Parrom’s mother, died after a two-year fight against cancer. Parrom was 2,500 miles away — his mother had ordered him to return to Tucson — with no family except the players and coaches on the Arizona basketball team. “I ask all Arizona Wildcat fans to join us on Saturday, Oct. 22, at 2 p.m. at our annual Red-Blue Game to be there when we introduce Kevin Parrom as a part of our 2011-2012 team,” head coach Sean Miller said in a press release following Parrom’s mother’s death. “He will rely on all of

Hoops notes

us here in Tucson for support in moving forward.” So now it’s time for a community that might call itself one of the best college basketball fan bases to prove it. Parrom needs it. How many people have ever stepped into the spotlight in front of nearly 15,000 people less than a week after losing a parent? You can add Parrom to that list on Saturday. But there’s a key difference between Parrom and the rest that have gone through that. The others had their sport to lean on. Brett Favre — one example — threw for 399 yards and four touchdowns the day after his dad died. Steve Kerr, a name Arizona basketball fans remember fondly, hit five of seven shots against ASU two days after Islamic militants murdered his father in January of 1984. While a great in-game performance can’t produce enough good vibes to overcome the loss of a parent, it lessens the sting at least for a little bit. Parrom doesn’t get a chance for some on-court heroics to help him get through this. Instead, he’ll rely on teammates, coaches, friends and a sold-out McKale Center on Saturday. After the ride that Parrom and the rest of the basketball team took Arizona fans on last March, returning the favor is the least that the Wildcat faithful can do. — Alex Williams is the assistant sports editor.
