13 - 0Members of the public got a chance Sunday to take home memorabilia that belonged to legendary former head foot- ball coach Darrell K Royal. Items auctioned included Alamo Bowl and 2006 Rose Bowl rings, a 1973 photo of Darrell K Royal and his wife Edith Royal with Willie Nel- son and Lady Bird Johnson and a photo of Charles Duke, lunar module pilot on the 1972 Apollo 16 mission, at- tempting to form a Hook ‘em hand gesture on the moon. Darrell K Royal died Wednesday of complications of cardiovascular disease at the age of 88. Ross Feather- ston, spokesperson for Austin Auction Gallery, said plan- ning for the auction began in late August, and Edith Royal wanted to continue with the auction after her husband’s death for several reasons. “This is about sharing their personal collection with the public, with his fans,” Featherston said. “She wanted people to have the opportunity to buy some of those things. There are 243 pieces here that they can [bid on], and they are related to Coach Royal.” Amy McMurrough, spokes- person for public relations firm McMurrough and Asso- ciates, that assisted in publi- cizing the auction, said Edith Royal also wanted to continue with the auction to take some of the strain off her family. “She didn’t want to burden her family with the difficulty of having to figure out what to do with things after he passed,” McMurrough said. She said roughly 600 people placed bids during the auc- tion, with 300 in-person and 300 via internet or telephone. She said the highest bid was made by a UT alum- nus, whose name was not available, for the 2006 Rose Bowl ring at $105,000, rough- ly $120,000 with buyer’s pre- mium, a tax charged by the auction house. McMurrough said the later bids on that ring produced a lively competition between two bidders. In addition to the Royal’s items, the auction included pieces from Beau Theriot, an Austin furniture designer. Featherston said a portion of the proceeds taken in by Featherston and Edith Royal will be given to the Darrell K Royal Fund for Alzheim- er’s Research. He said Darrell K Royal’s passing received national pub- licity, undoubtedly contribut- ing to the auction’s success. Editor’s Note: This is the third in a three-part series ex- amining UT officials’ political donations. This installment examines contributions made by UT faculty members. The College of Liberal Arts faculty has outspent all other UT colleges and schools in political contri- butions since 2008. Leading up to the elections earlier this month, UT professors gave almost ten times as much to President Barack Obama as to Republican candidate Mitt Romney. Liberal arts professors donated $235,590 to politi- cal campaigns and political action committees in the past five years, according to fillings compiled by The Daily Texan from the Texas Ethics Commission and the Federal Election Commis- sion. With 692 professors as of 2011, the College of Lib- eral Arts is the University’s largest college. Campaign contributions made by UT professors from all colleges and schools to- taled $791,472 since 2008. Reported figures for con- tributions by professors include all professors, as- sociate professors, assistant professors and lecturers who identified the Uni- versity as their employer in state and federal filings. State and federal guidelines do not require individual contributors to disclose their employer, and indi- viduals with multiple em- ployers can choose which employer to list or opt not to include one. UT spokesperson Tara Doolittle recently told the Daily Texan that cam- paign contributions fall un- der an individual’s right to free speech. “As long as University re- sources or official positions are not used to advocate or November 12, 2012@thedailytexanfacebook.com/dailytexanThe Daily TexanServing the University of Texas at Austin community since 1900dailytexanonline.com Texas easily beats Iowa State in tribute to DKR.

For a Texas team who is itch- ing to bring home a championship crown af- ter so many near misses, the win represented just how dominating the Longhorns have been all season. No. 3 Texas walked into Lawrence, Kan. Saturday and brought home a close 3-2 win against No. 23 Kansas who was ranked sec- ond in the Big 12 (20-25, 25-15, 22-25, 25-16, 15-12). The game marked Kansas’ first home loss this season. Thanks to their 15th straight victory, Texas is now 21-3 on the season. More importantly, Texas is now 13-0 in conference play, marking its best start in the Big 12 in Texas history under head coach Jer- ritt Elliott. The win also guarantees Texas at least a part of the Big 12 crown. “We have a chance to go 13-0 for the first time in 15 years in conference. We’ve never done that before so it is a big op- portunity for us,” Elliott said last week after equaling the 12-0 record he had set before heading to Kansas. The Longhorns will clinch the title outright if they can defeat Texas Tech on Wednesday night at Gregory Gym. It will mark the Longhorn’s second consecutive and sixth total Big 12 volleyball title. Starting last season, the Longhorns have won 27 consecutive conference match- es and 38 consecutive home conference matches.

Haley Eckerman declaration allowed the contractor to amend the existing labor contract to include changes such as lower wages for new driv- ers and higher health insur- ance premiums. Dan Dawson, vice presi- dent of marketing and communication for Capi- tal Metro, said UT shuttles would not be affected by the strike because McDon- ald Transit does not operate the shuttle service. The vote comes a week before Austin hosts For- mula 1 racing, an event that will require the city’s public transportation sys- tem to accommodate an influx of tourists. Dawson said the union’s vote authorizes a potential strike but does not guaran- tee that workers will strike. Dawson said he does not know how the bus service would be affected because it is not clear how many drivers plan to strike. He said Capital Metro would use drivers from two other contractors, Veolia Trans- portation and First Transit, to staff routes designated as top priority if the union calls a strike. “We are hoping that ev- erything will go well and it will not come to that,” Dawson said. In a statement Friday, Linda Watson, Capital Metro president and CEO, said Capital Metro has es- tablished plans to deal with a possible driver shortage during the Formula 1 U.S. Grand Prix, but that the strike would affect service on fixed routes. “Regarding Formula 1, we are disappointed that the union has called for a strike authorization, especially given the level of coordi- nated planning that has oc- curred during the past sev- eral months to ensure that enhanced services could be provided for the benefit of the community and visitors alike,” Watson said. McDonald Transit, a Fort Worth-based company, be- gan operating 44 of Capital Metro’s routes in August. McDonald and the union have been negotiating a new collective bargaining contract since July. McDonald Transit presi- dent Robert Babbitt said he would not comment on the situation because his company is still negotiating with the union. Jay Wyatt, president of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1091, did not return calls for comment by press time. In a statement Friday, Mike Martinez, chair of Capital Metro’s board of di- rectors, said the union pre- viously approved of Capi- tal Metro’s current labor structure and that its action could jeopardize Capital Metro’s ability to serve the Austin area. “Strikes should be utilized as a last effort after discus- sions break down, not a first knee-jerk reaction before all other options are con- sidered,” Martinez said. “It is my hope that the mem- bers of ATU continue their amazing service and remain at the bargaining table with McDonald in order to re- solve remaining issues.” and Women18 to 55Up to $2400Healthy & Non-SmokingBMI between 19 and 30Weigh at least 110 lbs. for females and 130 lbs. for malesFri. 30 Nov. through Mon. 3 Dec.

FRAMES | FEAtuREd photo Maria Arrellaga | Daily Texan StaffThree siblings attempt to shoot a bee with a BB gun on the shores of Windy Point on Lake Travis Saturday afternoon. Articles about Darrell K Royal’s death appeared in the Austin-American Statesman, The New York Times, The Boston Globe, The Daily Texan and more than a dozen other publications. Darrell K Royal served as head coach of the Longhorn football team from 1956 un- til 1976. His record as head coach is 167-47-5, a school re- cord that remains unbroken. At Saturday’s game against Iowa State the Longhorns ran the first play from wishbone, a formation introduced to col- lege football by Darrell K Roy- al in 1968, and gained 47 yards with the play. The Longhorns won the game 33-7. There will be a public me- morial for Darrell K Royal at noon Tuesday in the Frank Erwin Center’s basketball arena. He will be buried privately in the Texas State Cemetery in East Austin, an honor reserved for “legend- ary Texans who have made the state what it is today.” DKRcontinues from page 1influence political activity, employees are free to par- ticipate in the political sys- tem,” Doolittle said. The School of Law, which had 117 faculty members as of 2011, making it the fifth largest college in terms of professors, had the second highest amount of contri- butions, totaling $191,359. The Cockrell School of En- gineering was third, con- tributing $144,185 between its 245 professors. Other colleges or schools with a high number of fac- ulty contributions include the College of Natural Sci- ences with $139,840 from 556 professors, the Mc- Combs School of Business with $59,042 from 153 pro- fessors and the College of Education with $32,241 from 178 professors. Faculty contributions have steadily increased over the past five years and spiked in 2011 and 2012. Faculty members also tend to donate more to federal candidates and PACs than to state can- didates or PACs. Faculty members also contributed regu- larly to presidential and congressional races — contributing $46,662 to presidential candidates and individuals running for U.S. Senate in 2012, according to opensecrets. org, which is operated by the Center for Responsive Politics. President Barack Obama received $46,346 in contributions from fac- ulty members. Republican candidate Mitt Romney received $4,650. Despite the overwhelm- ing preference for giving to Democratic committees and candidates, representa- tives of UT Democratic and Republican student political groups said personal politi- cal preferences don’t neces- sarily translate to bias in the classroom. Leslie Tisdale, president of University Democrats said she believes politi- cal contributions made by faculty should not dic- tate their objectivity in the classroom. “I, as a student, contrib- ute my time because I don’t have much money,” she said. “[Professors] might not have that much time so they contribute in other ways.” Danny Zeng, College Re- publicans communications director, said it is usual for professors to donate to Democratic candidates but political affiliation does not always transfer into the classroom. “I don’t think they are professors who are specifi- cally biased, but it is a more systemic kind of bias — a more professional bias, per say,” Zeng said. Zeng said political ideolo- gies might structure course material to cover specific topics and teaching method- ologies, but allowing broad discussion in the classroom can truncate biases.

WASHINGTON — Members of Congress said Sunday they want to know more details about the FBI investigation that revealed an extramarital affair between ex-CIA director David Petraeus and his biographer, questioning when the retired general popped up in the FBI inquiry, whether national secu- rity was compromised and why they weren’t told sooner. “We received no advanced notice. It was like a lightning bolt,” said Democratic Sen. Di- anne Feinstein of California, who heads the Senate Intelli- gence Committee. The FBI was investigat- ing harassing emails sent by Petraeus biographer and girl- friend Paula Broadwell to a second woman. That probe of Broadwell’s emails revealed the affair between Broadwell and Petraeus. The FBI contacted Petraeus and other intelligence officials, and director of Na- tional Intelligence James Clap- per asked Petraeus to resign. A senior U.S. military official identified the second woman as Jill Kelley, 37, who lives in Tampa, Fla., and serves as a so- cial liaison to the military’s Joint Special Operations Command. A U.S. official said the coalition countries represented at the military’s Central Command in Tampa gave Kelley an appre- ciation certificate on which she was referred to as an “honorary ambassador” to the coalition, but she has no official status. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Kelley is known to drop the “honorary” part and refer to herself as an ambassador. The military official, who spoke on condition of anonym- ity because he was not autho- rized to publicly discuss the investigation, said Kelley had received harassing emails from Broadwell, which led the FBI to examine her email account and eventually discover her rela- tionship with Petraeus. A former associate of Pe- traeus confirmed the target of the emails was Kelley, but said there was no affair between the two, speaking on condi- tion of anonymity to discuss the retired general’s private life. The associate, who has been in touch with Petraeus since his resignation, says Kelley and her husband were longtime friends of Petraeus and wife, Holly. Petraeus resigned while lawmakers still had questions about the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate and CIA base in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens. Lawmakers said it’s possible that Petraeus will still be asked to appear on Capitol Hill to testify about what he knew about the U.S. response to that incident. Rep. Peter King, chairman of the House Homeland Secu- rity Committee, said the cir- cumstances of the FBI probe smacked of a cover-up by the White House. “It seems this (the investi- gation) has been going on for several months and, yet, now it appears that they’re saying that the FBI didn’t realize until Elec- tion Day that General Petraeus was involved. It just doesn’t add up,” said King, R-N.Y. Petraeus, 60, quit Friday after acknowledging an ex- tramarital relationship. He has been married 38 years to Holly Petraeus, with whom he has two adult children, includ- ing a son who led an infantry platoon in Afghanistan as an Army lieutenant. Broadwell, a 40-year-old graduate of the U.S. Military Academy and an Army Re- serve officer, is married with two young sons. Attempts to reach Kelley and Broadwell were not immediately successful. Petraeus’ affair with Broadwell will be the sub- ject of meetings Wednesday involving congressional in- telligence committee lead- ers, FBI deputy director Sean Joyce and CIA deputy director Michael Morell. Petraeus had been scheduled to appear before the commit- tees on Thursday to testify on what the CIA knew and what the agency told the White House before, during and after the attack in Benghazi. Repub- licans and some Democrats have questioned the U.S. re- sponse and protection of diplo- mats stationed overseas.

By Adam Goldman, Anne Flaherty & Kimberly DozierAssociated PressSyrian opposition reaches unity deal DOHA, Qatar — Syrian an- ti-government groups struck a deal Sunday under intense international pressure to form a new opposition leadership that will include representa- tives from the country’s dispa- rate factions fighting to topple President Bashar Assad’s re- gime, activists said. The opposition has been deeply divided for months de- spite the relentless bloodshed in Syria and repeated calls from their Western and Arab sup- porters to create a cohesive and representative leadership that could present a single conduit for foreign aid. The agreement, reached Sunday after more than a week of meetings in the Qatari capital of Doha, could boost efforts to secure inter- national support that will be crucial in the war to oust Assad. 2013 austerity budget approved by GreeceATHENS, Greece — Greek lawmakers approved the coun- try’s 2013 austerity budget early Monday, an essential step in Greece’s efforts to persuade its international creditors to unblock a vital rescue loan installment without which the country will go bankrupt. The budget passed by a 167- 128 vote in the 300-member Parliament. It came days after a separate bill of deep spend- ing cuts and tax hikes for the next two years squeaked through with a narrow major- ity following severe disagree- ments among the three parties in the governing coalition. Prime Minister Antonis Sa- maras pledged that the spend- ing cuts will be the last Greeks have to endure. — Compiled from Associated Press reports On Saturday, hours after our Longhorns, led by David Ash’s passing and a number of offensive plays honoring the late Darrell K Royal, posted a statement win over the Cy- clones of Iowa State, the Aggie War Hymn blasted over the PA system in buildings throughout the Texas A&M campus. I was standing in the A&M recreational sports complex, cringing at the music and what it marked: A&M’s upset win over then-top-ranked Alabama. Yes, though it pains me to do so, I’m writing about A&M football. It’s been almost a year now since Case McCoy led our of- fense down Kyle Field in the last minutes of the fourth quar- ter to a 40-yard game-winning field goal by Justin Tucker. For Texas, it was a perfect ending to the 118-year rivalry. And if we never play A&M again, we’ll have the image of Tucker being hoisted onto his teammates’ shoulders to re- member fondly. Since then, there has been plenty of taunting on the part of the student bodies of both UT and A&M that escalated into Aggie fans vandalizing signs on the 40 Acres and Texas fans defacing an A&M billboard. Graffiti on our campus recently stirred the pot with statements like, “MISS US YET?” and “SEC!” As a diehard UT football fan, I try to stand firm be- hind our team in any provocation between the two football programs. But it’s becoming difficult to do so. That win a year ago was meant to be the last whipping we issued the Aggies before they became the newest punching bag in the vaunted SEC football society. After all, their foot- ball program’s resume aligned them with the Kentuckys and Vanderbilts of the SEC, perennial bottom feeders. But judg- ing by the war hymn that blasted in my ears, it’s a message no one told to Johnny Football. Johnny Manziel, a redshirt freshman known to the Ag- gie faithful as Johnny Football, is doing his part and then some to stake a spot for his team among the SEC elite. His dazzling display of athleticism and mature game intuition confounded even the stout Alabama defense. And as any SEC coach or player will tell you, rolling over the Crimson Tide takes work. What exactly does this mean for the third-longest rivalry in the history of college football, which is now one year ex- tinct? Well, for starters, we should take pride in the history of the Lone Star Showdown. It is, after all, history now. And at 76-37-5 in favor of our Longhorns, it’s one of the most one-sided major rivalries. Plus, we will forever enjoy the decisive 2011 win that ended the tradition. But, sobering though it is, we shouldn’t participate in any jawing about taking on today’s A&M squad. Although we share the same 8-2 record, their two losses were by a combined eight points to our forty-five. They’ve played five nationally-ranked pro- grams to our three. And they have Johnny Football (soon to be trademarked). It’s a hard truth to accept, but A&M’s is the eminent foot- ball program in the state of Texas. Rather than mouthing off with “lemme-at-‘em” talk, let’s shore up our focus and celebrate our own program’s accomplishments as we try to reclaim the throne as Texas’ top football team. St. Pierre is an English junior from Austin. While most voters were focused on the presidential elec- tion last Tuesday, two landmark propositions passed here in Austin that will forever change elections in the city. The first was Proposition 2, which moved municipal elections from May to November. The second was Proposition 3, which will end at-large representation on the Austin City Council and replace it with 10 geographic districts, allow- ing citizens to elect city leaders who represent their neigh- borhoods and interests. Together, these propositions may be just the shot needed to engage more students in all levels of government. Here are the facts: Despite predictions that fewer young people would vote in this election, the youth vote remained steady at 50 percent for the 2012 national election. In bat- tleground states, the youth vote was as high as 58 percent and was decisive to the outcome in Ohio, Florida, Virginia and Pennsylvania. In contrast, youth voter turnout in Texas remained one of the lowest in the nation, at only 39 percent. But even that number looks rosy when compared to shockingly low voter turnout in Austin city elections. Only 10 percent of voters elected our mayor and City Council last May, with a tiny fraction of citizens aged 18-29 participating. That means fewer than 50,000 voters chose our leaders in a city with over 800,000 residents — and we’re the fastest growing city in the country. There are many reasons why voter turnout in Austin is low, both in national and local elections. Many potential voters — including many UT students — feel their vote doesn’t count, that elected officials don’t represent their interests and that money dilutes their voice in politics, among other concerns. We need to address all of these is- sues. Though Propositions 2 and 3 are certainly no silver bullet, students have always been much more likely to vote in November than in May, and now they’ll have the oppor- tunity to elect local officials that represent their interests. The new City Council districts will give areas with large student populations a greater voice on the council. An independent commission will be established to draw the districts, requiring representation from a large, qualified and diverse pool of applicants — including one position that will be reserved for a student. Depending on how the districts are drawn, the new plan may make it easier for a student to run for City Council. UT Student Government rightly endorsed the 10-1 plan, and many students were in- volved as organizers to get it passed. It’s particularly critical for more Latino, black and Asian students to get active. Racial segregation is still prevalent in Austin, the legacy of a 1928 city plan that forced African- American and Hispanic residents to move east. Mirroring the persistent pattern in the general population, the major- ity of Asian and white undergraduates living off campus resides in West Campus, while most Hispanic and black undergraduates live in East Riverside. According to a Daily Texan analysis of the 2010 census, 47 percent of college-age Hispanics lived in the Riverside area, and 9 percent of black students. With lingering racial tensions around campus, we need representatives in local government who will listen and help develop solutions. At the national level, Latinos flexed their voting power on Tuesday, with over 70 percent casting their ballots for President Obama. As the country grows increasingly di- verse, it’s critical that voters everywhere reflect that diver- sity. In Austin, Latinos, blacks, Asians and other non-white students can have a decisive impact on whether our city celebrates or overlooks our diversity. The potential is obvious. As UT student and Planned Parenthood organizer Katy Wa- ters proclaimed at a recent community forum, “Millennials are the largest voting bloc in America and the most ethnically diverse and politically progressive in our nation’s history!” Why should local issues matter to UT students, many of whom have no plans to stay in Austin after graduation? Be- cause you live here now, and a great number of decisions that affect your quality of life are made locally. The number and route of buses that get you to school or work and how much it costs to park if you drive. The quality of your children’s schools. The availability of medical care. The number of jobs available to help you pay your student loans. And if those issues don’t speak to you, just consider your reaction if City Council were to require local bars and music clubs to close at midnight. Exercising your power as a citizen while you’re a student can become a lifelong practice. A vibrant, representative de- mocracy — in Austin and nationally — depends on it.

UT student veterans introduce challengesCAMPUSAustin honors veterans at paradeTravis county residents stood in silent anticipation Sunday as the nation’s colors were presented at the start of Austin’s annual Veterans Day parade. Nearly 2,000 people of all ages attended this year’s parade, which started at the Ann Rich- ards Congress Avenue Bridge and ended at the State Capitol. The celebration recognized ev- ery branch of the military with a salute and a short description and paid special tribute to Viet- nam War veterans. Percy Richardson, a Vietnam War veteran who attended the parade, said the turnout for the past few years has consistently amazed him. Richardson said he is glad so many av- erage citizens recognize the sacrifice he and his peers made for their country so long ago. He said he is proud of the future genera- tion for honoring the mem- ories of veterans. “It’s an honor to have ev- eryone notice something I did with my life,” Richardson said. “Just to be associated with such fine military men — that’s an honor.” The downtown parade concluded its journey on Capitol grounds with musi- cal performances, prayer and another tribute to Vietnam veterans and the military branches of the U.S. Eugene Miravete, a soph- omore at Westlake High School, was presented with an award for patriotic writ- ing at the ceremony. Mira- vete said veterans should feel they are the most important people on Veterans Day, but they deserve more than just one day of respect. “I am one of the few people [in the world] that gets to say they are American,” Miravete said. “More people should be proud that they are.” Freshman Jose Lopez Jr., who attended the presenta- tions held after the parade, said it was eerie how quiet the crowd was. Lopez said he could tell just by standing in the crowd that everyone had respect for all the veterans. “The tribute to veterans from Vietnam really seemed to hit the audience hard,” Lopez said. “We should always honor those who served and gave selflessly to their country and those who continue to give today.” By Carly CoenStudent veterans come to UT with different histories, experiences and knowledge than traditional students, ac- cording to officials and stu- dents who spoke at UT’s first symposium on the topic. Every day, veterans rec- oncile their predisposed military mindsets with their identities as students, Audrey Sorrells, associate dean of students, said. Sor- rels said research conducted over a period of years by faculty, staff and counselors in the Department of Men- tal Health Services and Stu- dent Veteran Services led to the symposium. “Each veteran entering col- lege must learn how to be- come a student veteran,” Sor- rells said. “They must learn to find ways in settings where most of their peers have never gone. We hope we can work to build opportunities and bridge the military and college cultures in ways that support their talents, skills and leadership.” The symposium featured speakers who discussed vet- erans’ needs, finding student identities while being veterans and the contributions student veterans make to UT. During the symposium, history junior Keith Huffak- er, who served in Iraq from 2003 to 2004, said there are many differences between the average student and student veterans. Huffaker incurred an injury while on duty, and now uses a wheel chair. He said besides his in- jury, personal responsibility has been the most notable difference he has seen be- tween traditional students and student veterans. “Military personnel hold accountability for their actions versus the average student,” Huffaker said. “I would not say the average student does not care, but military person- nel are very goal oriented and have a sense of direction. They know they are here for a de- gree and that is the goal.” Tania Nesser, a geography and international relations junior and student veteran who spoke at the symposium, said the University lacks the mentorship she was used to in the military. Nesser said she normally does not self- identify as a veteran in the classroom, but she offers ad- vice from her experiences to the peers who know about her past. “In the military when somebody outranks you and sees something in you, they seek you out and ques- tion your goals,” Nesser said. “Here with classes of 200 and 300 students, professors and TAs do not have time, and the students are not get- ting mentored like I got in the military. If I can mentor someone else, I feel like I am helping out.” According to the U.S. De- partment of Veteran Affairs, 1.7 million veterans live in Texas, and 250,000 of these veterans are eligible for educa- tion assistance services. Only 40,000 veterans in Texas use these services, which include the Post-9/11 GI Bill. The bill provides up to 36 months of financial support for educa- tion to individuals who have served 90 days of active duty after Sept. 10, 2001.

The Institute for Inter- faith Dialogue, a national nonprofit organization es- tablished after 9/11 to pro- mote peace, hosted their Annual Friendship and Dia- logue Dinner Sunday night. Along with audience and expert panelist discussions on peace, the event featured a ceremony to give Acevedo the organization’s annual Peace Award. Güner Arslan, co-found- er of the organization, said Acevedo was chosen for the award because of his efforts to promote unity in the Austin area. “He reached out to our community, the Muslim, the Turkish community,” Arslan said. “His doors are always open whenever we need something. We have had a few scares in the past few years where we thought we needed police protection and just a phone call to him or an email to him was enough to get his attention.” Outside the Hilton hotel in downtown Austin, pro- testors from the Peaceful Streets Project, an Austin- based grassroots organiza- tion that promotes police accountability, picketed in protest of Acevedo re- ceiving the award. Sev- eral members of Peaceful Streets also attended the dinner in protest. Antonio Buehler, founder of the project, said its mem- bers wanted to send a mes- sage to Acevedo. “We’re just being present, letting him know that we plan to hold him account- able,” Buehler said. Peaceful Streets Proj- ect member Kit O’Connell said roughy 25 people came out to protest the event. He said their criticisms include Acevedo’s “quick- ness” in defending animal and human deaths caused by Austin police officers in recent years, the recent- ly enacted “Public Order Initiative,” which has led to the ticketing and arrest of hundreds of homeless peo- ple throughout the city and Austin police infiltration of the Occupy movement ear- lier this year. “Acevedo turns a blind eye to police violence and po- lice brutality and now he is being given a peace award,” O’Connell said. Acevedo said his efforts over the past five years have led to greater public trust in the police depart- ment, promoting peace in the process. “I believe in transpar- ency, and I believe in en- gagement,” Acevedo said. “I really feel that a leader that is known to the community builds trust.” Arslan said, overall, he thought the protesters made a notable impact on the event, but in a positive way. “That’s one of the goals of the institute, to bring togeth- er people that generally don’t come together,” Arslan said. “We got them talking.” By David MalyForum examines U.S. electorate through election resultsFor most of the country, the 2012 presidential elec- tion served its primary pur- pose — determining who will be the president for the next four years. For analysts and political scientists, the election serves as a source of data that can provide insight into the American electorate. Examining voting behaviors was the goal of the New Politics Forum’s 2012 Post-Election Debriefing Conference, a series of TED Talk-style speeches and panel discussions hosted by the Annette Strauss Institute for Civic Life Friday. Talia Jomini Stroud, asso- ciate professor of communi- cation studies and assistant director of the institute, said media consumers increas- ingly insulate themselves with news marketed toward their specific partisan beliefs. “When we look at the news media, we don’t look with a blank slate,” Stroud said. “Our partisanship colors the way in which we view the media. A consequence of that is if you lean to the political left or the right, putatively neutral news media seems a bit biased in favor of the opposition.” According to a study by Pew Research Center released two weeks before the election, ca- ble news television and the In- ternet were the No. 1 and No. 3 sources for campaign news. In contrast, in 2000, the top three sources were local and nation- al news and local newspapers. Stroud said this shift toward more individually-tailored information gathering con- tributed to increased percep- tion of the media as polarized. Stroud also said a cultural con- sensus of media bias is often perpetuated by politicians and pop culture, itself. Stroud said former Vice President Dick Cheney im- plied that The New York Times has a liberal bias. Cheney said the newspaper prevented the administration from effective- ly fighting the war on terror. Stroud used another example of a popular author Sarah Des- sen dividing people into “Fox viewers and CNN viewers” in one of her books. Sylvia Manzano, a senior project manager with data- gathering firm Latino Deci- sions, said because of the increasing Latino population in the electorate, both major parties will increase their ef- forts to win Latino voters. She cited statistics tabulated by her firm, which said ap- proximately 75 percent of the national Latino electorate voted for President Barack Obama. In Texas, her firm’s data shows 70 percent of La- tino voters chose Obama. Given the increasing La- tino population in Texas, Manzano addressed specu- lation that Texas might be- come a blue state, which she said is still unlikely to happen without significant Democratic effort. “First, Texas would have to turn purple,” she said. The focus on the impor- tance of demographics carried over into a panel discussion featuring Politico national pol- itics editor Charles Mahtesian, PBS NewsHour political edi- tor Christina Bellantoni, po- litical commentator Will Cain and Obama campaign pollster Cornell Belcher. “The big secret weapon of the Obama campaign was the census,” Belcher said. “Our electorate hasn’t been growing whiter for two decades now.” CAMPUSBecca Gamache | Daily Texan StaffPeaceful Streets Project member Heather Kindrick discusses the protest against Police Chief Art Acevedo winning the 2012 IID Peace Award with a passerby. By Jordan RudnerCourt to hear case on Voting Rights ActThe U.S. Supreme Court announced Friday that it will hear another case chal- lenging the constitutional- ity of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, a key measure of the Civil Rights Movement that has been used to de- fend the rights of minority voters as recently as the last election cycle. The Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case Shelby County v. Holder, an Alabama case that claims states and municipalities with special restrictions under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act have made sufficient progress and should no longer be required to comply with these restrictions. Section 5 requires states and mu- nicipalities that have a his- tory of discrimination to have any changes to their voting laws approved by the U.S. Justice Depart- ment or certain federal courts, but has been using the same formula to deter- mine which areas should receive these restrictions since 1965. Since 1965, Congress has not changed the list of jurisdictions covered by Section 5. Section 5 of the act, set in 1965 and originally sched- uled to expire in 1970, has been reauthorized four times by Congress. It is set to ex- pire next in 2031. Nine states, Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Geor- gia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia, and other munici- palities are affected by the Section 5 restrictions. The act has been applied recently by the Justice Department in Texas to block the passage of voter ID laws and to chal- lenge redistricting. The Supreme Court last declared Section 5 constitu- tional in 1966. — David Maly Everyone knew the Longhorns were running a play out of the wishbone in their first play from scrim- mage. No one thought it would be a play like this. With his unit backed up inside its 10-yard line, co- offensive coordinator Bry- an Harsin put a 21st cen- tury twist on the formation that the late Darrell K Royal used to help Texas capture three national titles during his legendary 20-year ten- ure as the Longhorns’ head football coach. David Ash motioned fullback Ryan Roberson to his right before the snap and tossed the ball to re- ceiver Jaxon Shipley, who lined up as a running back off-set behind Roberson. Shipley threw it from one side of the end zone to the other back to Ash, who hit a wide open Greg Daniels for a 47-yard gain. “Coach [Royal] said, ‘When you throw a pass, three things can happen, and two of them are bad,’” head coach Mack Brown said. “So I thought if you throw it twice, that means two good things can happen. That was the only way I could figure out how to make it work.” A perfect tribute to Roy- al, who died last Wednes- day, when Brown said he “just sat down on the floor and cried.” But it wasn’t just his team’s opening play that honored Royal, the program’s all- time winningest football coach. The Longhorns went on to pummel an over- whelmed Iowa State team that embarrassed them in Austin two years ago — a 33-7 victory reminiscent of many from the Royal era. Ash threw for two touchdowns and a career- high 364 yards, his second straight stellar performance since his struggles against Kansas. Texas’ running game was productive and its defense put on a display that would leave Royal smiling. Royal once described linebacker Tommy Nobis as someone who would “laugh and jump right in the slop for you.” That’s what the The Longhorns wore Dar- rell K Royal’s initials on their helmets to honor the former coach who died Wednesday. Flags flew at half-mast and it was a somber day at the sta- dium named after him. But the way that Texas played was also a tribute to Royal. Despite struggling in early games this season, the Long- horns found their rhythm on both sides of the ball and de- feated Iowa State 33-7. The Texas offense was bal- anced throughout the game thanks to a dominant offen- sive line. David Ash had a good game, going 25-of-31 with two touchdowns and 364 yards, a career high. He completed his first 11 passes. “Our job was to try to spread them out a little bit by putting the ball on the outside and utilizing the wide receiv- ers,” co-offensive coordinator Bryan Harsin said. “They’re a very difficult team to run the ball on consistently so you have to mix it up, and that’s what we did tonight.” Mike Davis has become Ash’s go-to target; both Davis and Jaxon Shipley stepped up and combined for 250 receiving yards. Running back Malcolm Brown played for the first time in six games, but Joe Bergeron and Johnathan Gray retained their own- ership of the backfield. Bergeron had 86 yards and Gray had 75 yards and two touchdowns. The offense had 609 yards of total offense. Texas began the game by honoring Royal, lining up Royal’s wishbone forma- tion. Ash pitched the ball to Shipley, who threw it to back to Ash, who threw it to tight end Greg Daniels for a 47- yard gain. “All the coaches said, ‘It’s Wednesday, and we don’t have [a tribute to Royal]. 6 SPTSChristian Corona, Sports Editor Sports6Monday, November 12, 2012SIDELINETEXAS IOWA STATEVS.

Shipley had 137 yards on eight recep- tions . After several games of inactivity, Shipley turned in a convincing performance. The Longhorns played their best overall game in con- ference play. The offense was explosive en route to 609 yards, and David Ash was excellent. He completed 81 percent of his passes, throwing for 364 yards and a pair of touchdowns. The Longhorn rushing attack was also potent, pounding a stout Iowa State front seven for 222 yards on the ground. Texas’ defense also put on its best display since the non-conference schedule. The Longhorns held the Cy- clones to only 277 yards of offense and seven points. “I’m slowly gaining confidence,” defensive end Alex Okafor said. “We are getting better game-by-game. We still have a long way to go. But slowly but surely, we are getting better at the run defense.” First: The Longhorns made a fitting tribute to Darrell K Royal, lining up in the wishbone on the first play of the game. But they scored touchdowns on their next two possessions. The first came on a five-yard Johnathan Gray run, and the sec- ond on 61-yard touchdown pass to Mike Davis. Second: Texas’ offense slowed down a bit, scoring only on a pass to Barrett Matthews, but an Anthony Fera field goal at- tempt was blocked. The defense allowed its only touchdown of the game in the quarter, when the Cyclones scored with just 41 seconds remaining in the half. Third: This was the slowest moving quarter. Only three points were scored on a field goal by Nick Jordan, who replaced Fera as the place kicker. Neither offense had much success moving the ball. Fourth: The Longhorns iced the game in this frame. Texas had the ball for just under 12 minutes of the quarter as the rushing attack imposed its will. Case McCoy also saw some snaps in relief of Ash late in the game, throwing for 23 yards. 47: The number of yards Texas’ opening play from scrimmage went, as the Longhorns lined up in the wishbone in honor of Royal. 38:12: Texas’ time of pos- session in the game. The Longhorns held the ball for 64 percent of the contest. 364: Number of passing yards Ash had Saturday, a ca- reer high. 7: Davis’ rank on the Long- horns all-time receiving yards list after his 113-yard performance. Jaxon Shipley: Early in the season the sophomore wide receiver was Ash’s favor- ite target, but as the season has worn on, Shipley has seen less and less of the ball. That changed against Iowa State. Shipley caught eight balls for 137 yards, the first time he’s gone over 100 yards all season. Actually, he had more yards Saturday then he did in the past four games combined. Anthony Fera: Fera transferred in from Penn State to solidify Texas’ kicking position after Justin Tucker graduated. And with two games remaining he hasn’t done much. Fera missed the first four games of the season with a groin injury and hasn’t played much better since. He’s only 1-of-3 on the year and was benched after a missed field goal in the second quarter. He was replaced by Jordan, who went 2-of-2 in the game. Texas will get a bye week before it plays TCU on Thanksgiving. The week off should allow the players to get healthy and allow the coaches to add more wrinkles to the playbook. TCU heads into the game at 6-4, and will also come off a bye. TCU features a stin- gy defense and a running quarterback in Trevone Boykin, who will challenge Texas’ run defense. —Chris Hummer — Head coach Mack BrownCoach [Royal] said, ‘When you throw a pass, three things can happen, and two of them are bad.’ So I thought if you throw it twice, that means two good things can happen. ‘‘ DKR continues on page 7Did you know?

Junior outside hitter Bai- ley Webster led the Long- horn’s offensive attack with 17 kills, three digs and a .250 hitting clip. Fellow out- side hitter All-American Haley Eckerman registered 16 kills, though she contrib- uted a team-high 10 errors against the Jayhawks. For Kansas, junior mid- dle blocker Caroline Jarmoc led with 18 kills and a .306 hitting clip. The Jayhawks jumped to a fast 0-1 match lead with a 20-25 set victory over the Longhorns. The Longhorns weren’t able to overcome a slow start and never led in the first set. Webster was able to erase a five point 8-13 deficit and brought the set to within two, but the Long- horns succumbed to errors and gave the set to Kansas. Sophomore Khat Bell led the second set for the Long- horns and evened the match with a 25-15 set to victory. She registered six kills and one block. Freshman Molly McCage also contributed in the set with three kills and a block. Set three went to Kansas with several offensive runs lead by Jarmoc. With Texas leading 14-13, a 2-8 run by the Jayhawks put them back on track to take the 22-25 victory. Set four went well for the Longhorns as they regis- tered eight blocks to even the score 2-2 with a 25-16 victory. Webster went on a rampage and logged five kills and two blocks with Hannah Allison coming out with 12 assists. In the fifth set, the Long- horns relied on the abilities of Eckerman and Allison and several Jayhawk errors to keep the score in favor of Texas. Kansas kept the score close, but Eckerman nailed a service ace followed by a kill by Webster to get the 15-12 victory. “We need to keep improv- ing. We can still improve a lot over the next month,” El- liott said. “Our players know that. I’m really proud of the way they’re going through preparing this season. They’ve been a lot of fun to coach. I’m excited for the di- rection that they’re heading.” SPTS/CLASS 7sportsMonday, November 12, 20127It wasn’t easy. It wasn’t pretty. But Texas is 1-0. Sheldon McClellan scored 18 of his game-high 20 points in the second half as the Longhorns squeaked past Fresno State, 55-53,in their season opener at the Frank Erwin Center Fri- day night. The Longhorns shot just 36.7 percent from the field and recorded only three assists but were able to avoid losing their first sea- son opener since 2001. Any sluggishness they dis- played could be attributed to the fact that they have not had a day off in nearly a week. “We’re a tired team right now and it’s my fault,” head coach Rick Barnes said. “We’ve had to remake our- selves a little bit with Myck [Kabongo]’s situation and Jaylen [Bond] going down ... This is our sixth straight day. In the last eight or nine years, we’ve never practiced more than three days in a row.” Playing without Kabongo, the team’s star point guard, and sophomore forward Bond, Texas was left with only three available scholar- ship players that had played college basketball before. One of them, sophomore forward Jonathan Holmes, grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds. Another, McCl- lelan was 14-for-14 from the free throw line, the most attempts from the char- ity stripe without a miss in school history. “My out- side shot wasn’t falling and Coach [Barnes] called some plays for me to get around the rim,” McClellan said. “I just kept being in attack mode and kept my confi- dence up by getting to the free throw line.” Kabongo was held out of the game as the NCAA continues to investigate whether he received imper- missible benefits from an agent during the off-season, and Bond missed the opener with an ankle injury he suf- fered during practice earlier in the week. Without them, Texas nev- er led Fresno State by more than five points. Freshmen accounted for 19 of the 25 points scored by the Long- horns in the first half. Javan Felix, starting in place of Kabongo, led the way in the first 20 minutes with eight points and seven rebounds before halftime. But he slowed down in the second half, shooting just 1-of-7 from the floor and committing three turnovers. “I think we got tentative,” Barnes said. “We weren’t attacking the defense. We were just dribbling with no purpose. Javan got tired. Be- cause of that, we didn’t get our offense going the way we wanted to get it going.” The game was tied 11 times, the last being when the Longhorns and Bulldogs — coached by former Texas assistant Rodney Terry — were knotted up at 48 with 2:14 remaining in the second half. McClellan hit two pairs of free throws on the Long- horns’ next two possessions to give them a 52-48 lead. After Fresno State hit two free throws to cut Texas’ ad- vantage to two points, Felix badly missed a floater close to the basket, a shot he hit several times in the first half. The Bulldogs’ Kevin Olekaibe, with his team trail- ing, 52-50, airballed a three- pointer before McClellan hit two more free throws to put the game away. “We’re not going to blow anyone out,” McClellan said. “They came out here and played hard. We just stayed together as a team and grinded it out at the end.” MEN’S BASKETBALLFanny Trang | Daily Texan StaffSophomore Sheldon McClellan takes a shot against Fresno State last Friday night in the Longhorns’ season opener.

Horns edge Bulldogs in season openerBy Christian CoronaMcClellan leads Horns, stays perfect at the lineBy Nick CremonaTwo games down, and Karen Aston has already cracked a smile. The Women’s Basketball team emerged from the WBI Tip Off Classic with two wins this weekend. The weekend marked a series of firsts for a squad that seems poised for big things this season. In the opening game against a tough St. John’s squad, the Longhorns edged out a 70-60 victory behind Nneka Enemkpali’s first career double-double. Enemkpali finished the game with a career high 25 points and 12 rebounds. After being named to the Wooden Award Preseason Top 30 List early Friday, ju- nior Chassidy Fussell lived up to the billing, adding 23 points of her own. She also extended her free throws streak to 30-straight. In a 72-52 drubbing of Hofstra University in the closing game, Enempkpali continued her impressive play, recording another double-double with 26 points and 10 rebounds. The sophomore was later named the MVP of the tournament. Fussell again provided key support, finishing with 18 points and nine rebounds on her way to being named to the All- Tournament team. In addition to Enemk- pali’s and Fussell’s domi- nance, freshmen Empress Davenport, Celina Ro- drigo, Brady Sanders and Imani McGee-Stafford all recorded their first career buckets for the Longhorns. Senior Nadia Taylor re- corded her first career min- utes for Texas, grabbing a rebound in four minutes against Hofstra. Leaders have emerged and Aston can stay content as the Longhorns take their 2-0 start into their home opener against Jackson State Nov. 20. women’s basketball recap |matt wardenmen’s tennis recap |nitya duranNneka Enemkpali Sophomore forwardThis past week marked the end of the fall season for tennis as the USTA/ITA National Indoor Intercolle- giate Championships took place in Flushing, N.Y. Senior Longhorn Daniel Whitehead fell in the first round of the singles main draw on Thursday to Cal- Berkeley’s Ben McLachlan, and also fell to Florida’s Flo- rent Diep in the first round of the singles consolation bracket Friday morning. Longhorn doubles team Chris Camillone and David Holiner entered the tourna- ment last minute for Texas as another team was unable to make the trip. Camillone and Holiner had a first round- bye, but outlasted North Florida’s Moritz Buerchner/ Norbert Nemcsek (8-5) in the second round. The team then fell in the next round to the eventual bracket-win- ners No. 2 Duke’s Henrique Cunha/Raphael Hemmeler. Daniel WhiteheadSeniorRECORDcontinues from page 1Longhorns did this weekend, limiting the Cyclones to a lone touchdown in the final minute of the first half and 64 yards on five second-half drives. “When I got up Wednes- day morning and found out that we’d lost Coach [Royal], I just wasn’t ready for it,” Brown said. “I should have anticipated something like that ... I think, whether I realized it or not at the time, Coach Royal filled a void in my life when I lost my dad and my granddad four months before I came here. He’s just been such a great friend.” Texas dedicated everything it could to Royal — the first play from scrimmage, the de- cals on the helmets and the logo at midfield, numerous festivities and even a fourth- quarter rendition of “Wabash Cannonball.” It would have been impossible to honor Royal and the legacy he built over decades in just a few days. But the way the Longhorns played Saturday came close. So what are we going to do?’ So these crazy young coaches come back to me with a double-reverse pass,” Brown said. The Longhorns didn’t score on the drive, but the first quarter gave the Long- horns a big advantage. Texas went up by two scores after a five-yard touch- down run by Gray and a 61- yard touchdown pass from Ash to Davis. In the second quarter, Ash hit Barrett Mat- thews for a three-yard touch- down on the tight end’s first reception of the season. Brown was happy with the defense’s play in the game, but was not pleased with the timing of Iowa State’s touchdown. Quar- terback Steele Jantz found wide receiver Quenton Bundrage for a 14-yard touchdown with 41 seconds left in the half to make the score 20-7. Texas’ defense continued its solid play and held the Cyclones to 277 yards; they were three of 12 on third- down conversions. The Tex- as offense went 8-for-14 on third downs. “To me, the game was about third down,” said de- fensive coordinator Manny Diaz. “They couldn’t get us off the field and they couldn’t stay on the field when it got to third down.” The biggest play the de- fense allowed was a 23-yard pass from Jantz to Chris Young. Cornerback Car- rington Byndom caught his third interception of the season and Josh Turner also had one at the end of the game. Defensive end Alex Okafor had nine tackles. Nick Jordan replaced Anthony Fera at kicker and scored a 37-yard field goal for the only points of the third quarter. With the help of the field position gained after an incredible 38-yard catch by Jaxon Shipley that deflected off Iowa State’s cornerback, Gray scored his second touchdown of the game on a 13-yard run. Jordan concluded scoring in the game with a 25-yard field goal with 1:23 left in the fourth quarter. Texas now holds a four- game winning streak head- ing into its bye week. This game was more than just getting Texas its eighth win. “We really needed to win this game, not only for us but for [Royal],” Shipley said. “We needed to dedi- cate this game to him and I think that played a key part and really motivated us.” ISU continues from page 6DKR continues from page 6On the surface, Texas’ 55- 53 win over Fresno State in its season opener was a stodgy, sloppy game that very well could have ended in disap- pointment for the Longhorns. But dig a little deeper than the box score and you’ll find a brazen per- formance from one of the Longhorns’ leaders. With the game tied at 48 points late in the second half, the Longhorns were in need of help on offense. Shots were not falling, turn- overs were abundant and overtime seemed imminent. The only option Texas had left was to do what it had been doing all game in hope of a different outcome. The Longhorns continued to feed guard Sheldon McClel- lan the ball, and he finally was able to force defenders to guard him around the rim. McClellan was able to draw fouls on successive possessions late in the game, sending him to the charity stripe where he would score six points in the game’s final two minutes. Still just a sophomore, Mc- Clellan turned in a 20-point performance that enabled Texas to sustain a collective second half scoring slump and slip past the upset- minded Bulldogs. McClellan’s 21st double- digit showing of his young career hardly came in a conventional manner. After a dismal first half shooting the ball, McClellan contin- ued to have issues after the intermission. He would fin- ish 3-of-10 from the field, but his perfect 14-of-14 night at the free-throw line became the driving com- ponent to the Longhorns’ eventual win. Down two starters and its leading scorer from last year, Texas knew it would struggle to score points. Mc- Clellan averaged 11.3 points per game last season, but as head coach Rick Barnes has pointed out on more than one occasion, he some- times hesitates to shoot and consequently squanders scoring opportunities. “He’s got to shoot those shots,” said Barnes. “Our big- gest problem is he doesn’t shoot it enough. We kept tell- ing him that he was going to make more of those.” As this season progresses, McClellan must take ad- vantage of open looks and have an attack-first mental- ity in order to set the tone for the Longhorns’ offense. Whereas the team would rely on consistent scoring from J’Covan Brown last year, the load will have to be spread more efficiently this season. McClellan pos- sesses all the attributes of a natural scorer and can be as explosive a player as any- one in the nation. What’s been missing is that certain something that elevates him to a level beyond being just a scorer and makes him a team leader. Some might ar- gue that even Brown never reached that level. But after showing some serious grit in the late stages against the Bulldogs, McClellan may be closer to securing a role as a go-to guy for Texas. “Looking at the whole game, I think we have a lot of work to do,” sophomore for- ward Jonathan Holmes said. “The way we work, I think we’ll get it done.” Coppin State at TexasDate: MondayTime: 7 p.m. On air: LHN TERMS There are no refunds or credits.

For Zhang, the effect of the project is already noticeable. “Before I started on this project, my level of awareness about these genocides and conflicts was at a much lower level, I knew that these atroci- ties existed in certain coun- tries, but I didn’t know which specific countries and to what extent,” Zhang said. “Through the process of working on this project, I learned more about how people around the world are suffering from these kinds of events and how much they need our help.” For One Million Bones, the aim of these installations is als to make a significant contri- bution toward enacting posi- tive change as well. For each bone made, One Million Bones, in collabora- tion with Students Rebuild and the Bezos Family Foun- dation, donates $1, until they reach $500,000, to the CARE foundation, which works in the Congo and Sudan to en- act change. When the bones are laid down this Tuesday at 11 a.m., primetime for students rush- ing to classes, Hallmark hopes students take the time to stop and participate as well. “When we did this the first time, many people joined in and participated spontaneously. I hope that will happen here,” Hallmark said. “The bones are pow- erful in large numbers, both visually and symbolically. I hope that students who par- ticipate that day have the opportunity to see how art can be a vehicle for social justice as well as the sym- bol of the bone moving us toward a future of change.” are told in a journalistic style. Schwartz quotes emails and jotted-down dialogue. His wife, who helped him with the book, spent weeks writing mem- ories that Schwartz says he would never have thought to include. And though much of the book is sad, it does pos- ses a sense of wit. At one point, Schwartz writes, “It gets better for [parents] too ... besides, somebody’s gotta pay for the hair dye.” Though the memoir is centered around Joseph’s suicide attempt, the book is more hopeful than de- pressing. It does get bet- ter, for both Joseph and his parents. As the book ends, Joseph has found his place in high school, regularly attends the Gay-Straight Alliance Club meetings and sessions at the Gay Center in Manhattan and no longer has depression. The road is not always easy, but in Joseph’s case it is manageable. The final chapter, writ- ten by Joseph, is the en- tirety of a children’s book he wrote for class called “Leo, the Oddly Normal Boy,” which is about a boy who likes a boy. It is a cute and an endearing way to end the memoir. Lacking more content directly from Joseph is the memoir’s sole weak point. Though Schwartz regularly quotes his son, he might have con- sidered allowing his son to contribute more to his own narrative. But perhaps Jo- seph is still a little young for that. “Oddly Normal” is a book any gay parent, gay child or ally to the LGBTQ community will thor- oughly enjoy. The mem- oir advocates for accep- tance through the story of one boy who represents a much larger group and an important, pressing human issue. BONEScontinues from page 10HOUSTON — It was a mo- ment Nina Berman did not expect to capture when she en- tered an Illinois wedding studio in 2006. She knew Tyler Ziegel had been horribly injured, his face mutilated beyond recog- nition by a suicide bombing in the Iraq War. She knew he was marrying his pretty high school sweetheart, perfect in a white, voluminous dress. It was their expressions that were surprising. “People don’t think this war has any impact on Americans? Well here it is,” Berman says of the image of a somber bride staring blankly, unsmiling at the camera, her war-ravaged groom alongside her, his head down. “This was even more shock- ing because we’re used to this kind of over-the-top joy that feels a little put on, and then you see this picture where they look like survivors of something re- ally serious,” Berman added. The photograph that won a first place prize in the World Press Photos Award contest will stand out from other bat- tlefield images in an exhibit “WAR/PHOTOGRAPHY: Im- ages of Armed Conflict and Its Aftermath” that debuted Sun- day — Veterans Day — in the Houston Museum of Fine Arts. From there, the exhibit will travel to The Annenberg Space for Photography in Los Ange- les, the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington and The Brook- lyn Museum in Brooklyn, N.Y. The exhibit was painstak- ingly built by co-curators Anne Wilkes Tucker and Will Mi- chels after the museum pur- chased a print of the famous picture of the raising of the flag at Iwo Jima, taken Feb. 23, 1945, by Associated Press pho- tographer Joe Rosenthal. The curators decided the museum didn’t have enough conflict photos, Tucker said, and in 2004, the pair began traveling around the country and the world in search of pictures. Over nearly eight years and after viewing more than 1 million pictures, Tucker and Michels created an exhibit that includes 480 objects, in- cluding photo albums, origi- nal magazines and old cam- eras, by 280 photographers from 26 countries. Some are well-known — such as the Rosenthal’s picture and another AP photograph, of a naked girl running from a napalm attack during the Vietnam War taken in 1972 by Huynh Cong “Nick” Ut. Oth- ers, such as the Incinerated Iraqi, of a man’s burned body seen through the shattered windshield of his car, will be new to most viewers. “The point of all the photo- graphs is that when a conflict occurs, it lingers,” Tucker said. The pictures hang on stark gray walls, and some are in small rooms with warning signs at the entrance designed to al- low visitors to decide whether they want to view images that can be brutal in their honesty. “It’s something that we did to that man. Americans did it, we did it intentionally and it’s a haunting picture,” Michels said of the image of the burned Iraqi that hangs inside one of the rooms. In some images, such as Don McCullin’s picture of a U.S. Marine throwing a grenade at a North Vietnamese soldier in Hue, it is clear the photog- rapher was in danger when immortalizing the moment. Looking at his image, McCul- lin recalled deciding to travel to Hue instead of Khe Sahn, as he had initially planned. “It was the best decision I ever made,” he said, smiling slightly as he looked at the picture, explaining that he took a risk by standing behind the Marine. Berman didn’t see the con- flicts unfold. Instead, she wait- ed for the wounded to come home, seeking to tell a story about war’s aftermath. In 2004 she published a book called “Purple Hearts” that includes photographs taken over nine months of 20 different people. All were pho- tographed at home, not in hos- pitals where, she said, “there’s this expectation that this will all work out fine.” Pat Sullivan | Associated PressIn this Thursday photo, photographer Don McCullin poses in front of the Houston Museum of Fine Arts’ sign promoting the new War/Photography exhibit.

In the memoir, UT alum- nus John Schwartz chroni- cles his son’s, Joseph, early childhood, young adoles- cence and current teenage years. Joseph received a se- ries of different mental diag- noses and often had trouble in his younger school years, issues his parents believed came from a phenomena Schwartz describes as “mi- nority stress,” or pressure felt by people who belong to often unaccepted minor- ity groups. The story is not a happy one, as much of the memoir is a narrative build- ing up to Joseph’s suicide at- tempt in 2009. It should be noted that this is not a self-help book or a step-by-step guide on how to raise and help a LG- BTQ child, and Schwartz makes that clear. Rather, it is an inspirational story about how Joseph’s parents struggled and tried to help their son. Acceptance from his parents was never Joseph’s problem. Schwartz writes that from a young age, he and his wife thought their youngest of three might be gay and they assembled what they called a “League of Gay Uncles” to go to for advice. It was not his home life he struggled with. In- stead, Joseph struggled with coming out at school to his peers and coming to terms with his sexuality himself. Furthermore, Schwartz argues that Joseph’s middle and elementary schools were unprepared and did not want to deal with a gay student. “I feel like the school would rather he had autism than be gay,” Jeanne Schwartz, Joseph’s mother and John’s wife, comments at one point. But the book is more than a linear narrative of events through Joseph’s child- hood. Schwartz, a national correspondent for The New York Times, quotes research, statistics about mental illnesses and offi- cials. He presents data that suggests gay teens may be more likely to suffer depres- sion, but he also points out the data and study is still in- conclusive. This, along with other factual and academic anecdotes, makes this book more effective than a tradi- tional memoir. Joseph is not necessarily a special case and there are teenagers all across the world who are suffering through similar problems. And not all of them are lucky enough to have accepting parents like Joseph has. Even the more memoir- focused parts of the book McKinney, Life & Arts Editor Life & Arts10Monday, November 12, 2012Editors Note: The Record is a biweekly segment dedicated to featuring the people and tradi- tions that make The University of Texas such a distinct place. The walls are covered with swatches of old fabric, creating an endless checkerboard effect surrounding the thousands of costumes that suffocate the store. Customers squeeze through throngs of tutus, masks and vin- tage pieces new to both the store and its 64-year-old owner, Jenna Radtke, as they shop through the collection that has amassed over the past 28 years. “You’ll do things in a costume that you would never normally do,” Radtke said. “You’ll dance crazier, and like no one’s watch- ing. It’s in all of us. All anyone needs to know is just to be who you are and see if we have any- thing that can decorate it.” Lucy in Disguise, a costume emporium named after Radtke’s border collie she dressed in rhinestones, was originally two stores. Over the years, the di- viding wall was removed cre- ating the nearly 8,000 square foot space costume haven that has occupied the land since its opening April 1, 1984. Radtke recalls being unable to stop her tears that day, as the collection she opened the store with, a combination of vintage costumes and accessories, was her own and she didn’t want to sell any of it. “I was a very organized hoarder,” Radtke said. “They say you’re not a hoarder if you can find everything you have, and I’ve always been able to find everything I have. I’ve always organized the chaos. I’m a hoarder of great things. I still am, and I still can’t leave it alone.” Radtke was forced to move with her family every six months beginning in the third grade for her father’s business. Consequently, the only child had to learn to adapt over and over again to the culture of her homes across the southwest. She was driven to be popular and one of her ways of being cool was the way she dressed and her carefree attitude. Halloween was always a fa- vorite holiday of hers, a night she remembers as weeks worth of effort that would culminate in up to $9,000 worth of cash after entering as many costume con- tests as she could in one night. “That’s what Halloween was to me, getting the best cos- tume and then trying to make it pay me back for all of my time,” Radtke said. Clad in her typical attire of a gold embroidered robe she had cut into a blouse, jew- eled peace earrings and a light smoke banana clip hairpiece that blended into her smoky curls, Radtke fits the mold of the girl she said she had grown into during the “hippie, psy- chedelic times,” even with age. When she first started the store she wanted to make all of the costumes herself, or at a minimum, only have one- of-a-kind costumes available. However, the creative costumes she still pines after in garage sales and attics just aren’t what her clients come to her store for. Currently her store is com- prised of 25 percent unique pieces while the rest of the cos- tumes are mass-produced. “I think the world is less cre- ative, not all of the world, but the straight world, the house- wife world, and that’s a lot of our business,” Radtke said. Two of Radtke’s longtime employees and current man- agers, married couple Rio Jennings and Fernie Renteria, help keep her business model in check and facilitate the ev- eryday workings of the store. “She’s a very savvy business woman,” Jennings said. “I can’t even begin to see the vision she sees — the way she put’s the panels on the walls and the things you learn from her.” Jennings and Renteria have been working for Radtke for more than seven years and have seen first-hand the way she has adapted over time to accept more mainstream cos- tumes in her store to allow for the store’s continued growth. They characterize her as an Austin icon with a signature hippie look. “I think she lets you know who she is right off of the bat,” Renteria said. “She’s very much a what-you-see- is-what-you’re-going-to-get kind of person.” Radtke strongly believes trends and those who try to create them are tasteless. She has always encouraged having an open mind, espe- cially when searching for the perfect costume. “I do this for love, the love of the junk. You would have to love it to pick through it in an old attic filled of dirt and usually someplace un-air con- ditioned. It’s like what they say, dig through the shit to find the pony. That’s what I love to do,” Radtke said. Currently Radtke spends a majority of her time doing her other two jobs: flipping houses and hosting wed- dings at her venue Casa Rio De Colores in Williamson county. She still enjoys going on the hunt for great stuff, wherever that may lead her, and continuing the legacy she began back when her hair was of the colorful variety and she wore red cowboy boots and short shorts, a “typical south Austin crazy.” “The same things still in- spire me, and that’s what your mother never tells you, that when you get to be al- most 65-years-old you’re still exactly the same person you were,” Radtke said. “Maybe you give your time to dif- ferent things, but basically you don’t change. You have a few more aches and pains. I just had to figure out how to dress.” Costume design by Walter Young | Photo by Andrea Macias-Jimenez | Daily Texan Staff Lucy in Disguise owner Jenna Radtke poses with her employees, surrounded by the hundreds of costumes the famed store has to offer.

ARTMemoir tells sexuality struggleBOOK REVIEW | ‘ODDLY NORMAL’ UT students and their collaborators will lie 6,500 to 7,000 clay bones on the grass of the South Mall Tues- day. The area usually popu- lated by students studying in the sun will be transformed into a symbolic graveyard of sorts as handmade bones are laid down as part of the national art activism project One Million Bones. Started by artist Naomi Na- tale in New Mexico, the UT installation of clay bones is only the latest in a string of na- tionwide “One Million Bones” projects that span from New Orleans to New Jersey. One Million Bones is a col- laborative art endeavor that aims to promote awareness of genocide and daily atroci- ties occurring in the Demo- cratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, Somalia and Burma. Ultimately, the bones made by UT students will be combined with more than 900,000 other bones in Washington D.C. as part of the largest One Mil- lion Bones exhibit in 2013. Through the sheer number of bones present on the South Mall, the UT exhibit hopes to serve as a visible reminder of the staggering loss of life with- in these African communities. “The bones symbolize that beneath every person’s skin, we’re all the same, and also helps us to remember vic- tims and survivors from these atrocities while representing hope for the future at the same time,” education junior Julie Zhang said. Zhang, who estimates she has made approximately 400 bones, is one of eight students in Kara Hallmark’s visual art studies service-learning course that are responsible for putting together the event. As part of the class, these students have organized bone-making sessions on campus and as well as sessions with elemen- tary school students, muse- ums and professors at South- western and Temple Colleges. Hallmark, the course in- structor, was hired by Natale as the Central Texas state co- ordinator for the project af- ter helping graduate student Matthew Remington organize the first One Million Bones display in Austin at the state capitol last spring. The role art could play in promoting social justice intrigued Hallmark, who had previous experience with service-learning in the K-12 system. “A project like this will cre- ate within you a deeper sense of connection with the situa- tion,” Hallmark said. “Art has a way of doing that. It’s that vis- ceral experience in conjunc- tion with knowledge, stories, photographs and video.” While an intriguing idea in practice, making 10,000 bones for social justice is no easy feat. Hallmark said that in ad- dition to meeting for six hours every week, most students spend countless hours outside of class making bones.
