ASA lawsuit against ABOR dismissed

STEPHANIE CASANOVA Arizona Summer Wildcat

A lawsuit filed against the Arizona Board of Regents by the Arizona Students’ Association has recently been dismissed by a U.S. District Court. ASA, a student organization that lobbies for affordable and accessible higher education, filed the lawsuit in February,

after the Regents voted to change a $2 per-student, per-semester fee to an optin fee. While some student fees are optout, meaning students are automatically charged the fee but can request a refund, the opt-in fee requires students to agree to the fee before paying. The lawsuit claimed that the board had violated the First Amendment rights of ASA. In November 2012, the Regents voted to

suspend the fee for the spring 2013 semester, after ASA donated more than $100,000 to a campaign that advocated for Proposition 204. The proposition, which would have extended a sales tax to fund education, did not pass. According to Katie Paquet, the board associate vice president for public affairs

Following closely behind ASU, the UA has ranked number 78 among the top 100 universities in the world.

The UA has recently been ranked as one of the top universities in the world, according to a list compiled by the Center for World University Rankings. A quantitative approach to university rankings, the list took into account dynamics such as quality of education, excellence of faculty and their awards received, success of alumni employment and quality of research. The UA ranked number 78, following closely behind ASU, which ranked 73. Among the top 10 were universities such as MIT, University of Oxford and Harvard, the last of which took the number one spot. According to Kasey Urquidez, associate vice president for Student Affairs, the UA’s high ranking is impressive to prospective students and their parents. “Undergraduates can do research with a faculty member, study in another country and experience another culture, meet friends from all over the globe, learn from top-ranked faculty, and cheer in the largest student sporting section in the Pac-12,” Urquidez said. “UA is the full package — students get the beauty of a traditional campus feel plus the academics and social setting like no other.” The UA is also ranked among the top 20 research universities nationwide, and is recognized globally for areas such as environment, optics, biosciences and

border issues. “One of the reasons I imagine that we’re ranking well is that because we have world leading scientists, journalists, historians and everyone we employ,” said Shane Burgess, dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. “This means that the students who come to the U of A are exposed to some of the very best people in the world.” Aside from research, the UA also offers more than 550 clubs and organizations, as well as a supportive staff for its students. “The UA is one of the most caring places a student will ever encounter,” Urquidez said. “Not only do we do a great job academically, but we really care about the students … Everything we do is with students in mind.” Thomas Koch, dean of the College of Optical Sciences, said he didn’t think the UA’s ranking was surprising. “There’s a history here of doing major national level projects, and so it kind of goes back to how you think of yourself really,” Koch said. If a university thinks they’re a national leader, they’ll behave that way and become what they believe, he added. “Not all universities are like that,” Koch said. “Some think they are a small actor or a regional school … UA is a big player in the national stage and it attracts faculty who think that way and want to get funded for large projects that fit that mold.”

MOOC not savvy online alternative for classes Marisela Siqueiros Arizona Summer Wildcat

C

hoosing to take classes online as opposed to in-person could be based on many factors. Maybe it offers a more flexible schedule or is less expensive. Maybe it’s proximity. However, just like an in-person class, online classes will have its drawbacks. Some online programs that offer a variety of college classes, let the quality of their coursework fall by the wayside and instead are focused more on convenience and enrollment. The Massive Open Online Courses program is an online higher education program that allows thousands of people, across the nation, to enroll in a college course. MOOC was created a year ago with the intention of having a customized and self-directed online learning experience for college students. The program partners with universities to offer some of their courses online. The courses offered are in a wide range of subjects, from physics to history. For a MOOC class, students pay about 10 percent of what they would for a hands-on lecture or an online course instructed by a faculty member from the university. The cost for one course might be around $89, whereas the cost for a course offered directly through the university can be more than $1,000, which could prompt people to consider the quality of the program. Not only that, the difference in the amount of money is so large, it suggests that there might be a concern about what higher standards the program is being kept to. While the intentions of MOOC might seem purely educational, UA assistant professor of Africana Studies Bryan Carter, who instructs virtual classes, said that MOOC focuses on numbers. Students become nothing but numbers, and many will not learn as much because there is no forum to spark discussion or have a means of interaction.

Contact Us letters@wildcat.arizona.edu Letters should include name, connection to university (year, major, etc.) and contact information

Furthermore, there is no enrollment limit in these classes. From a financial standpoint, MOOC seems like it could be a successful alterative to traditional college courses, but Carter said it’s “the worst implementation program”. According to a recent BBC article, many professors echoed these concerns stating, “University staff are not happy and see this as the beginning of cost-cutting and reduction in quality for publicly funded universities.” MOOC requires self-discipline, since there are no strict deadlines and the completion of assignments is left to the individual to successfully complete a 12 to15 week course. This was also one of the challenges that Associated Press reporter Justin Pope said he faced after he decided to enroll in MOOC class. “The first thing I learned is why so few who start MOOCs finish them: They’re hard. When a class is free and doesn’t generally produce a credential it takes real self-discipline (or a promise to your editor to write about the experience) to make yourself keep up.” Yes, independence is nice, but some form of direction and strict boundaries are necessary in successfully completing these classes. Students can access material from any mobile device and still be engaged in the course. Unlike MOOC, there is engagement in the innovative online courses offered through universities. Enrolling in these courses is not financially savvy. Even though students are receiving the same materials through MOOC as they would through a university course, the value of the education they earn is much lower. Bottom line: the program is not a wise investment. Be smart, UA students, and don’t enroll in MOOC classes because of the cheaper price tag. Instead invest both the time and money in a true, quality education. — Marisela Siqueiros is a senior studying English.

Only then can we ensure that our nation’s promise of a better tomorrow endures.” It also goes on to point out the alarming fact that over the past two decades, China, Singapore and South Korea have passed the U.S. when it comes to research and higher education funds. According to an article by UANews, “Economists agree that more than half of U.S. economic growth since World War II is a consequence of technological innovation, much of which results from federally funded scientific research conducted at U.S. universities.

UA to offer new transfer student orientation STEPHANIE CASANOVA Arizona Summer Wildcat

Beginning this fall, students who plan to transfer to the UA can look to gain a sense of community through a new transfer student orientation. A collaboration between a UA transfer task force committee and the Transfer Student Center, the orientation will cover a wide range of topics, including UA traditions and what resources the UA offers. Students will be welcomed with a large presentation that will focus on the Arizona experience, academic expectations and policies. After the main session, students can choose to attend a smaller session with a more focused topic, which will include subjects such as technology resources, places where students can find academic support, how to apply for scholarships and getting involved on campus. “It’s good to have flexibility for the transfer students to pick,” said Amanda Fosmire, a psychology senior who transferred from Pima Community College to the

UA. “Everyone knows what they need more help on and I think it gives a more personal aspect to [orientation].” According to Jeanais Brodie, program director for Transfer Student Services, transfer students are a diverse and non-traditional population which sometimes makes it more difficult for them to create connections and have a sense of community on a large college campus. “For a transfer student, they come in and there’s no big thing for them. They kind of just become another face in the crowd,” Brodie said. “As a transfer student it’s harder to find out where you belong and make those connections with other people.” Stefanie Basij, director of New Student Orientation and assistant director of enrollment services, said Student Affairs strives to connect students to campus activities as it helps them become more successful. “That’s one of the hopes behind going to this one day experience for the transfer students is that they will have a sense of community,” Basij said. “An official welcome

On July 26 at approximately 6:48 p.m., officers from the University of Arizona Police Department responded to the new north Stadium Expansion zone of the Arizona Stadium after a UA Athletics employee reported two 55 inch LED/LCD TVs were missing. Several brackets and bolts were scattered on the ground below where the TVs had been mounted, which were valued at $3,450 each, according to the man who reported the theft. A construction employee said he first noticed the TVs’ disappearance at approximately 8:30 a.m. He told police he had last seen the TVs around 6 p.m. the previous day. He also told police that because the new stadium was nearly completed, overnight stadium security had been stopped. The two employees on scene decided to dismount four of the remaining six TVs, leaving two in place as there was evidence they may have been tampered with. The areas were taped off and a report was filed.

THIS FALL, incoming transfer students can look to gain a sense of community, as well as learn about the UA campus during a new transfer student orientation.

Crimmins, an ecologist who is the partnerships and outreach coordinator for the USA National Phenology Network and her husband Mike, a climatologist and associate professor in the department of Soils, Water and Environmental Science, published a paper in 2009 analyzing the data set by comparing Bertelsen’s observations in his first 10 years of record to his second 10 years. They found that most plant species are moving uphill toward cooler temperatures, said Theresa Crimmins, which is significant because it shows that plants are having to adapt to climatic changes even in the relatively short span of 20 years. Like animal species, Theresa Crimmins said that eventually the plants may reach the top of the mountain and have nowhere to go. Aside from the possibility of eventual extinction, the shifting of plant ranges could also lead to other problems, she added. “This might open up spaces for invasive species to take root … or it could shake up plant-pollinator interactions,” she said, noting that changes in plant communities could negatively affect the ecosystem as a whole. Mike Crimmins said although most climate models predict a four degree centigrade rise in temperature, the number could go up or down based on how humans address the issue of climate change.

That’s all about to change. The new Lowell-Stevens Football Facility is the Wildcats’ new $72 million expansion to Arizona Stadium. “It’s a new day for Arizona football,” said Athletic Director Greg Byrne. Byrne led a tour of the facility Thursday. The LSFF’s lobby is a show in itself, with two large, interactive touch screens that give a history of Arizona football and statistics for each player. Three

because it’s somewhere different we can go to, instead of just a normal locker room or a weight room we have somewhere we can just come together as a team and hang out, relax in between practice and meetings,” Wilson said. “They did a great job, we really appreciate it.” There are rows of player cubbies in the locker room and each locker has a ventilation system right under each seat. The rows of cubbies are orientated toward the center for speeches. Players can also take advantage of the training room, where the strength and conditioning staff is there to help with rehabilitation purposes. There is a hot tub and a cold tub, as well as high-

Football has slow start on first day of training camp James kelley Arizona Summer Wildcat

On Saturday, the Wildcats started their three-week fall camp with a practice that head coach Rich Rodriguez called “uneven.” “It was about what I thought. It was a pretty good effort by a lot of guys but some weren’t in shape,” Rodriguez said. “We have a handful of upperclassmen that will be doing a little extra to get in shape. They have to understand what it takes to be an elite athlete. An elite athlete doesn’t show up in August and expect to be ready to go so we’ll see what happens.” Two of the three main candidates for the starting quarterback job had issues. Junior Jesse Scroggins did not practice and Rodriguez said senior B.J. Denker was not impressive. “He won’t be talking to you today, if that gives you an idea of what I thought of his performance,” Rodriguez said. Denker, a dual threat quarterback, was former quarterback Matt Scott’s back up last year. He played in six games, completing 25-of-

37 passes with three touchdowns, rushing for 74 yards on six carries and one touchdown. “If I sugar coated anything, they would think something is wrong with me. He competed, he’s in good shape, he worked hard. The execution in the passing game should be a whole lot better, even with new wide receivers, than it was [Saturday],” Rodriguez said. Scroggins, a pro-style quarterback, was the sixth rated signal caller by Scout in 2010 and threw for 1,148 yards with eight passing and two rushing touchdowns at El Camino College. “He got a concussion somehow, I don’t know what happened, in a work out, a freak accident, got hit in the head and didn’t get cleared yet for [Saturday],” Rodriguez said. Scroggins went to USC in 2010 and 2011, before transferring to El Camino College for last fall and then the UA in the spring. Scroggins missed almost all of the spring football season because of toe surgery. True freshman and dual threat quarterback Anu Solomon is the other projected competitor for the starting job. He was a four star recruit

by Scout and Rivals and passed for 2,849 yards and 37 touchdowns last year at Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas. Rodriguez doesn’t have a deadline for picking a No. 1. “Well what time’s the first game?” Rodriguez said when asked if there was a certain time he wanted a starter by. “I don’t feel that there’s a need, I don’t feel that I have to name a guy. If

a guy separates himself, before then, he’ll do that.” A positive for the Wildcats was the muchmaligned defense, which gave up 35.3 points a game, 105th in the country in 2012. “I think we are better defensively which I thought we would be,” Rodriguez said. “Guys are moving around a little bit and

UA close to serving up sand volleyball Derek Evans Arizona Summer Wildcat

This January, the UA and ASU will be among the six Pac-12 teams to have a recognized sand volleyball team. The head coach of the Wildcats’ sand volleyball team will be Steve Walker, former assistant coach for Arizona’s indoor volleyball team. Walker said he expects getting the program started will be a “process.” “Like any business owner, I’m looking at this as a startup. In the very beginning what would you do to try to build a business from the ground up is I’m going to try to surround myself with the best people possible. I’ve hired good assistant coaches, getting organized, getting the athletes set up with academic counselors, we will hit the ground running,” Walker said. Walker began as an assistant coach for Arizona indoor volleyball under head coach Dave Rubio from 2003 to 2005,

P A R K W I S E

before becoming the head coach at UC Davis. He then came back to Arizona and joined Rubio’s staff again in 2008. Junior libero Ronni Lewis said she has learned a lot from Walker over the past two seasons and was very excited when she learned he would be the head coach. The new sand team will play at Jimenez Practice Facility, which was the practice field for Arizona football. The facility is next to Sancet Stadium, the old on campus stadium for Arizona baseball before the team moved off campus to Hi Corbett Field in 2012. Sand volleyball differs from indoor volleyball in that only two players are on each team rather than six. Current scholarship indoor players can play on the sand team, but sand scholarship players cannot play on the indoor team. “I don’t think that’s going to bare any issues, I think it’s a good rule to have or

tech underwater treadmills. Doors from the field enter directly into the weight room, which players agree is a major improvement from before. “Coming from where we came from, this is absolutely gorgeous,” senior linebacker Jake Fischer said. “This means the world to me.” An added perk to the fan experience is that ZonaZoo will not open until after the Wildcat Walk, when the players enter the facility following the band two hours before kickoff. Previously, students in the ZonaZoo did not always have the opportunity to witness this tradition. “When you’re recruiting, you want to say we’re efficient with how we manage your son or your daughter’s time,” Byrne said. “This, from an efficiency standpoint, is really good in what we’re doing.” Byrne concluded the tour by saying football success is vital to the other programs. “This is the foundation to give us this chance,” Byrne said.

understanding a little better and we have more competition just with sheer numbers. It looks like we can line up three units and compete. So that is encouraging.” Senior linebacker Marquis Flowers thinks it is too early to proclaim that the defense is “much improved,” but likes their start and said they were an “embarrassment” to the program last year. “I think we should wait until the season starts to say that but the first day was good,” Flowers said. “Obviously being last in every category, we take that very personal, so this whole offseason we have been working into spring ball and we have more depth. I think we played hard [Saturday].” Rodriguez said he thought the incompletions and interceptions were a mixed bag. “I think we forced things a little bit, couldn’t get open and there was also some pretty good plays defensively,” Rodriguez said. “I think it was a little bit of everything, which as a head coach, you don’t mind seeing, especially when the defense is improved.” Arizona’s season opener is Aug. 30 at 7 p.m. against NAU.

we’ll just have too big of an indoor team,” said Lewis. Walker said that the sand scholarship players can eventually play on the indoor team, but only after two full seasons and in that case they would have to come off of the sand scholarship.

The schedule is yet to be determined. Lewis said that it will be great for the team to start with a natural rival. Last season, the indoor team nearly made the NCAA tournament, but a loss to ASU at the end of the season kept them from making the postseason.

Arizona Summer Wildcat • 19

K.C. LIBMAN Arizona Summer Wildcat

When budding musicians are quickly compared to rock icons of yesteryear, they’re suddenly left with big shoes to fill and some serious expectations to meet. Daniel Kirkpatrick and The Bayonets, a Seattle power trio fronted by an acoustic troubadour and guitar slinger, have drawn comparisons to Bruce Springsteen and Eric Clapton with their debut Alibis, but ultimately sounds confused between ‘90s alternative and the rock ‘n’ roll greats. However, Kirkpatrick understands the importance of hearkening back to a better day by letting his Tom Petty influence show with big, jangling tone that can only be achieved by a Rickenbacker hollow body electric guitar and a clean British amp. Kirkpatrick’s lead work is just as important to the band’s sound as he displays a Clapton-esque restraint in his flourishes, choosing to accentuate rather than overpower with unnecessary soloing. Album opener “Someday” employs both guitar sensibilities, while its follow-up “Don’t Leave Me Waiting” is a slab of ‘90s pop-rock that sounds far more like a slowed-down Goo Goo Dolls than Kirkpatrick could be expected to play. The same goes for “I Knew You Then,” which uses a strikingly similar chord progression to Goo Goo Dolls’ “You Never Know,” if only Kirkpatrick put an alt-country spin on the same song or rewrote it on Klonopin and horse tranquilizers. While there’s been a lot of head nods in the way of ‘70s rock gods, Kirkpatrick does attempt to bring a lot of themes together on Alibis and the result often feels scattered from song to song. A record like The Wallflowers’ Bringing Down The Horse would be a shining example of a variety of pop constructions expertly brought together on the same album, but it feels trite elsewhere — unless you’re Bob Dylan’s son, that is.

Such is the shift from “Alibis,” a song that’s written in a watered down Los Lonely Boys style without the ripping lead work, to the halftime jam of “Emerald Blues.” While it’s a strong song in its own right, and Kirkpatrick’s deft Stratocaster handiwork does nothing but amplify the shadowing Southern blues vibe of the song, “Emerald Blues” is yet another flavor on Alibis that would have been better on an album with similar tracks, giving some shine time to a genre that’s moved away from dusky clubs and soaring solos to songs of the garage rock variety. And that’s the underlying issue with Kirkpatrick: He doesn’t quite know where he stands. He is a case of a singer-songwriter with an affinity for lead guitar work and a slight inability to blend the two together. Within a couple albums, Kirkpatrick’s preference should show, but on Alibis, there’s so many sounds crammed into the record that it comes across as more jarring than natural.

Art Against Sexual Violence goes on display

The first floor of the Joel D. Valdez Main Library features a small area with cafe tables and wooden towers. This is where the Art Against Sexual Violence exhibit will be displayed.

Among the wide array of artwork featured in downtown Tucson’s prominent showrooms and galleries, one unassuming public building displays works with deeply important social messages. The Art Against Sexual Violence exhibit will be showcased at Pima County’s Joel D. Valdez Main Library until Aug. 31. As part of a campaign by The Southern Arizona Center Against Sexual Assault, the collection will include artwork by those

who are survivors of sexual violence. “The organization’s mission is to reduce the trauma and incidence of sexual assault by providing treatment and promoting prevention of sexual abuse, incest, molestation and rape,” the library’s exhibit information said. This free event will help bring to light the rate of sexually violent acts committed in Arizona. According to SACASA, “One out of five adult women in Arizona … have been victims of one or more completed forcible rapes during their lifetime… Three percent of adult men in the US have experienced an

attempted or completed sexual assault in the 17th Judicial District Sexual Assault Response Team in Colorado, told The their lifetime.” As these statistics become more of a Denver Post, “I think a lot of survivors reality, art itself becomes an increasingly struggle with how to express themselves, and I don’t think our important creative society really has the outlet to those who have words to express what they personal experiences with Art becomes an went through.
