University of Texas on Monday, which will determine whether UT’s use of race in admissions is constitutional. If a decision does not come Mon- day, it could come later in the week, or the Supreme Court could wait to rule until next year, after hearing Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action. Visit dailytexanonline.com for Fisher v. UT coverage. After spending seven years working to be- come an ordained minister, Mary Ann Kaiser of the University United Methodist Church was suddenly removed from candidacy be- cause of her sexual orientation. “I was very surprised when I found out that the board met and decided to remove me from the ordination process, even though they had not yet interviewed me or otherwise met me, solely on the basis of my identity as a lesbian,” said Kaiser, a youth director and jus- tice associate at the church on UT’s campus. The Board of Ordained Ministry decided in June to remove Kaiser from the ordination process. Kaiser had previously been voted and recommended for ordination in full ac- knowledgement that she is gay. The decision to remove Kaiser from the ordination process wasn’t made locally, but instead by church leaders who oversee multiple churches in Texas. The United Methodist Church’s policy for- bidding openly gay clergy to be ordained was met with opposition from Austin churches. In addition, the board has been accused of mishandling Kaiser’s process of removal from ordination. The final decision could have a lasting im- pact on the church’s relations with the Les- bian Gay Bisexual Transgender community and it could cause greater divisions among the liberal and conservative elements within the church. Rev. John Elford, the pastor at University United Methodist Church, argued that Kaiser should be ordained. He said the board failed to follow proper procedures that are outlined by United Methodist Church’s own rulebook, the Book of Discipline. Elford said the Book of Discipline requires the board to interview all candidates before denying them ordination. Kaiser was scheduled to meet and inter- view with the Board of Ordained Ministry in January 2014, although she was removed in early June. Bishop James Dorff, the area provost of the North Texas Conference, has 30 days to in- vestigate the matter and revise his previous decision to remove Kaiser. “My decision will be based on my under- standing of the Book of Discipline, which I have pledged to uphold,” Dorff said in a statement. After the 30-day period, Dorff’s rul- ing will be posted on UMC’s Annual Conference website. “The ordination of gay clergy members is a really hot topic that has fractured the church,” said Eileen Flynn DeLaO, a former religion reporter for the Austin American-Statesman. The Book of Discipline has a few lines declaring that “homosexuality is incom- patible with Christian teaching” and that a “self-avowed practicing homosexual” cannot be ordained. “A woman who privately identifies as a les- bian, but does not pursue a same-sex relation- ship would likely be eligible for ordination, according to church policy,” DeLaO said. Back in April, however, Kaiser announced that she would marry her partner, Annanda Barclay, in August. Because of her pub- lic relationship, Kaiser is not subject to the exception anymore. DeLaO said some liberal Methodists are working to overturn the ban on gay clergy, but some feel the Bible is clear in its teaching on homosexuality. Supporters of gay ordination have a differ- ent biblical interpretation. They believe that if a person feels called by God to the ministry then that call should be answered, DeLaO said. Kaiser believes acceptance of the LGBTQ community in the church has shifted greatly over the years. The board’s decision also resulted in a call for action by Kaiser’s supporters. Many have taken to social media to show their support and oth- ers have written letters and emails to Dorff. Kaiser is currently awaiting the bishop’s decision. “It is hard to imagine, if this decision is upheld by the bishop and the judicial coun- cil and made final, the vocation I have spent years, money, school and passion working to- ward being thwarted,” Kaiser said. “I can still work in churches as someone who is not or- dained, as I do now, but it is limiting — both vocationally and theologically.” NEWS 3NEWSMONDAY, JUNE 24, 20133Opinions edi- are Operating than right Place in Board latest reviews ban on gay clergyBy Rabeea Tahir@rabeeatahir2The ordination of gay clergy members is a really hot topic that has fractured the church.” —Eileen Flynn DeLaO, Former Austin American-Statesman reporterEMILY NG / Daily Texan StaffMary Ann Kaiser, youth director and justice associate at University United Methodist Church, was removed from candidacy to become an ordained minister because of her sexual orientation. Former UT-Austin Presi- dent Robert M. Berdahl wrote in the University’s most recent master plan, “Linking people to a place through a shared sense of commitment is what building a community is all about.” Looking at entrepre- neurial epicenters like Aus- tin and Silicon Valley, you’ll see Berdahl’s quote rings true. These epicenters pos- sess powerful communities of people with a commitment to startup life. While our diverse campus represents communi- ties from across the world, we only recently began to witness the emergence of a student community of entrepreneurs. For the past year, I have served as the founding direc- tor of Student Government’s Longhorn Entrepreneurship Agency (LEA). LEA’s mission is to grow the entrepreneurial community at UT, and to do that, we need space on the 40 Acres dedicated to stu- dent entrepreneurs and their ventures. Given this space, I believe we could turn our budding community of en- trepreneurs into a Texas-sized network of new businesses. But how do we justify spending money and space to provide world-class facilities for the use of the admittedly small subset of students who call themselves “entrepre- neurs”? Consider the Texas athletic program: The costly prepara- tion, game-day theatrics and world-class facilities that go into Longhorn football games are astonishing. And yet the University funds our football program, and all of our ath- letics programs because in actuality these programs fully fund themselves and provide returns. According to USA today, which obtained this information through an open records request, in 2011-2012 our athletic program brought in more than $150 million in revenue, including a $25 million operating surplus. In short, the University allows athletic facilities to take up substantial space on campus because athletics are finan- cially beneficial. If we support our entre- preneurs like our athletes, Longhorn entrepreneurs will match the Longhorn athletics program in financial benefits for the University and for the community. Once successful, Longhorn entrepreneurs will build companies that employ hundreds or thousands of people, in the process creat- ing personal fortunes, like Michael Dell’s, that they will share with public institutions like UT-Austin. Michael Dell may have launched a company from his bathtub in Dobie, but a community of entrepreneurs needs an entire pool of space. And locating this space in the center of campus would only help to bridge the lifestyle gap between being a student and being an entrepreneur. The result? More students gradu- ating with honest experience as successful (and unsuc- cessful) entrepreneurs and fewer students struggling in bathtubs to become the next college-dropout success story.

Part of a series of maps drawn for the state house, state senate and Congress while legisla- tors worked out a way to comply with a federal court order to increase minority representation, the congres- sional district lines sliced the Austin area up into five districts, two of which were not even based in the metro- politan area. In other words, the Austin portions of those districts were just a sliver of the ground their representa- tives had to cover. Nowhere was the tightrope more vis- ible than in the University area, which was split over two districts (three, if you count the J.J. Pickle Research Campus in North Austin): one for the campus itself and North Campus, the other for West Campus. While the student vote is admittedly a small part of the Travis County vote, there is sym- bolic importance to hav- ing all of the UT area in the same congressional district; it would strengthen not only the voice of the University community, but also its soli- darity. Gov. Rick Perry and the Legislature had a chance to bolster us up during the special session, which was established specifically to deal with redistricting, but on Sunday, the Legislature waved through the interim congressional map with nary a change, keeping the local student voice divided be- tween two districts flanging out into the more conserva- tive suburbs to the north and west of the city. Now, with the future of the district boundaries uncertain, it is imperative that students take it upon themselves to en- courage one another to make up for this setback through greater civic participation and political awareness. The problem with the current configuration of districts is best illustrated by precinct results from last year’s election. In the race for president, Pre- cinct 208, which covers the part of campus west of San Jacinto Boulevard and ex- tends north to 29th Street, recorded 69 percent of the vote for then-Sen. Barack Obama and 27 percent for former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, while Precinct 277, which covers much of West Campus, went 59 per- cent for Obama to Romney’s 37 percent. In those same precincts, the respective Democratic candidates for the U.S. House, Elaine Hen- derson and Candace Duval, won more than 50 percent of the vote, but lost their races because of the differ- ent political leanings of the districts’ suburban residents. While many students are not registered to vote in Austin, the University would benefit from having a single repre- sentative in Congress. Now that the Legislature has signaled its acceptance of this situation, it behooves the student body to in- spire one another to kick up about the issues that af- fect them most, including federal funding for higher education and visa require- ments for foreign students. According to UT spokesman Gary Susswein, “One of the University’s core missions is to help develop an edu- cated and engaged citizenry. We do this both in the class- room and by promot- ing an open culture on campus where there is a free exchange of ideas and opinions.” However, it will take more than an absence of barriers to keep the stu- dent voice relevant in the current political geography. Student-initiated action in the form of rallies and get- out-the-vote efforts is crucial to achieving this goal, but spreading the word about the most important issues facing the University is the most important task of all. While we understand the logistical difficulties of getting the word out to a student body as large and diverse as UT’s, the cam- pus’ political organizations should strive to regularly in- form students, or give them the option of being regularly informed, of the debates oc- curring in Washington per- taining to higher education. We agree with Payton Mog- ford, vice president of Liber- tarian Longhorns, who said, “If the University is going to propose a greater politi- cal awareness for the student body, their only goal should be to educate in a factual, unbiased manner. No opin- ion should be extracted by students as they should be able to form their own.” Ulti- mately, the hard work of stir- ring UT students to political action falls to the students themselves. With such a clear visual representation of the fractures in UT’s politi- cal identity, it’s time the UT community took a more ac- tive role in making its voice heard. CD 25CD 10CD 21CD 17CD 35UT J.J.

A search committee of UT faculty, students and industry leaders began accepting appli- cations and nominations for the dean position this month. Applications will be reviewed this fall and officials expect the position to be filled by early 2014. The school is set to begin classes starting in fall 2016. A dean has his or her hand in everything from shaping general policy to providing insight on specific student and faculty situations. “On a typical day, I might have a meeting with a small group of [senior officials or faculty], hold a series of con- versations with individuals about any number of relevant and immediate issues — for example, hiring of a new se- nior faculty member — ap- prove a number of faculty ac- tions, such as salary changes, and discuss, in general terms, curricular changes,” said Fran- cisco González-Scarano, the dean of the UT School of Med- icine in San Antonio. UT’s Dell Medical School is seeking a dean with previous academic medical experience who has a record of interdisci- plinary research, management experience in running medical schools and experience com- municating with political ac- tors, private sector leaders and the media, according to a job posting released this month. “The inaugural dean will have a tremendous opportuni- ty to define the culture, priori- ties and strategies of the school in a way that doesn’t exist anywhere in the country,” said Robert Cullick, spokesman for the Dell Medical School. “It’s not only a new medical school, but one with a tremendous commitment to research.” The dean will also be re- sponsible for managing part- nerships between UT, the Seton Healthcare Family and Travis County Central Health. Seton runs several hospitals in Austin and has commit- ted $245 million to build a teaching hospital for students enrolled at the new medical school. Central Health is a county organization that works to ensure Austin’s poor have ac- cess to health care. Voters last year approved a property tax increase to support the new medical school and teaching hospital, among other health projects. Robert Messing, vice provost for biomedical sci- ences and chair of the search committee, said some work now being done to get the school running would be post- poned until the new dean is hired. “Several decisions will need to be made in the meantime to keep the project on schedule, but we are planning for flexibil- ity to allow the inaugural dean plenty of opportunity to shape the program,” Messing said. Cordell Cunningham, a medical student at the UT Medical Branch in Galves- ton, said the most successful deans are the deans who work with students, such as UTMB’s Dean Danny Jacobs. “He’s had a couple of ses- sions where he talks to stu- dents and listens to them,” Cunningham said. “I think stuff like that’s important.” There is palpable excite- ment in Austin for this school and everyone wants it to suc- ceed, González-Scarano said. Although maintaining active community participation is vi- tal in running medical schools, this can also lead to challenges. “All medical schools have multiple missions, and the stakeholders often have slight- ly different orders of priorities,” González-Scarano said. “The most important challenge the new dean will face is negotiat- ing through these nuances and maintaining all of the constitu- encies happy while at the same time advancing the school.” UT initiates candidate search for Dell Medical School deanBy Colton Pence@thedailytexanSource: UT-Austin Dean QualificationsSignificant achievement in clinical, educational and research pursuitsProgressive and broad administrative leadership experience within an academic institution Exceptional recruiting talentsManagement experience in the “business” of medical schoolsDirect experience in serving in a high-profile roleUNIVERSITY 6NEWSMONDAY, JUNE 24, 2013MONDAY, UPStudents Left: In the two years it took to complete The UT Solar Vehicle, the team had the chance to reenforce the education they recieved at UT.

ERIKA RICH / Daily Texan StaffMechanical engineering senior Raul Molina and members of the UT Solar Vehicle Team prepare the TexSun for a morning of test drives at The Circuit of the Americas racetrack. ERIKA RICH / Daily Texan StaffIt Last week, senior Nate Boyer was named as one of the two Big 12 Sportsper- sons for the 2012-2013 aca- demic year. Boyer, who is best known for his past ser- vice as a Green Beret, walked onto the football team as a deep snapper before earning a scholarship position and becoming the Longhorns’ go-to guy on field goals and point-after attempts. Kansas State’s Whitney Pyle, a senior golfer, was named as the other confer- ence Sportsperson of the Year. The award recognizes student-athletes who ex- hibit a high level of sports- manship and community service. Boyer is the fourth Longhorn to receive the honor, following football’s Ahmard Hall (2004-2005) and Sam Acho (2010-2011) and soccer’s Kylie Doniak (2011-2012). Four years ago, Boyer walked onto the team as a long snapper without ever having played foot- ball. While in high school, Boyer played both baseball and basketball because his school didn’t field a foot- ball team. He originally started out with Texas as a defensive back on the scout team, but moved to deep snapper in an effort to make a larger contribution to the team. Boyer enlisted in the army when he was 20 in response to the Sept. 11 terrorist at- tacks. He then joined the Army Special Forces, the Green Berets, before serving on active duty for six years. During his time in the Mid- dle East, Boyer earned the Bronze Star for his service to the United States. While a student at Texas, Boyer remained active in the Texas National Guard and spent his summers abroad on active duty in service to his country. In May, he earned a bachelor’s degree in physical culture and sports, but did not attend commencement ceremonies because of his deployment overseas. Boyer earned a 4.0 GPA as a Longhorn, was named a 2012 First-Team Academ- ic All-Big 12 and earned a spot on the Athletics Direc- tor’s Honor Roll. He also earned the Lorene L. Rog- ers Scholar-Athlete Award for his high grade point average. Earlier this year, Boyer received the 2012 Disney Spirit Award as college football’s most inspira- tional figure, according to Disney Sports. He also re- ceived the Armed Forces Merit Award in November, presented by the Foot- ball Writers Association of America. He was given the Distinguished Young American Award by the National Football Foun- dation’s Austin Chapter. Last October, UT Presi- dent William Powers Jr. named him a member of the Darrell K Royal– Texas Memorial Stadium Veterans Committee. 8 SPORTSSARA BETH PURDY, SPORTS EDITOR, @texansports8MONDAY, JUNE 24, 2013FOOTBALLTRACKTHORNTON page 9By Sara Beth Purdy@sara0bethThornton retires after 31 years of coachingThe athletics department announced June 17 that Bub- ba Thornton, Texas’ men’s track and field head coach, will not be reprising his po- sition next year, as he and men’s athletics director De- Loss Dodds reached a mu- tual agreement to terminate the last year of his contract. “It has been a singular honor to serve as track and field coach for the University of Texas men’s indoor and outdoor track teams, as well as oversee the cross country team, for the past 18 years,” Thornton said after the an- nouncement was made. “It was a privilege to serve this great university with its ex- traordinary heritage of de- veloping scholar athletes.” Thornton arrived at Texas after coaching at Texas Chris- tian University, spending 18 of his 31 seasons of coaching with the Longhorns. While a head coach, Thornton pro- duced 26 NCAA champions, one relay champion and 19 NCAA top-10 finishes, while leading 94 student-athletes to 222 All-America honors. This past season, the Long- horns finished No. 6 with two individual championships. Thornton finished his career with 12 conference champion- ships. At Texas, Thornton’s ath- letes hold 18 of 29 indoor school records and 14 of 29 modern By Shay Hoffman@ShayHoffmanMARISA VASQUEZ Daily Texan file photoFootball player Nate Boyer was named the Big 12 Sportsperson of the Year last week. Boyer walked on at Texas fours years ago after spend- ing time in the army as a Green Beret. Boyer named Sportsperson of Year outdoor school records. “Not only has he amassed a notable record here at UT, but his capabilities have been rec- ognized internationally when he was named head coach of Team U.S.A.’s 2008 Olympic Men’s Team,” Dodds said. In addition to his work at Texas, Thornton worked on the Olympic and World Championship circuits. He served as an assistant coach for Team U.S.A. at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, working with athletes com- peting in the 400-meter dash, the 400-meter hurdle and the 4x400-meter relay. He coached athletes to three gold medals and one silver medal. In 2008, Thornton was se- lected as the head coach for the U.S. track and field team at the Beijing Summer Olym- pics. The U.S. finished with 14 medals overall, including four gold, at those games, more than any other coun- try. Thornton was awarded the Order of Ikkos medallion for his service to the United States Olympics Committee for his work as a coach. Following Thornton’s re- tirement, which becomes effective Aug. 31, Dodds and women’s athletics di- rector Chris Plonsky will be restructuring the track and field program, combining the men’s and women’s pro- grams under one head coach for the first time at Texas. Merged track programs have been on the rise and Texas is currently the only Big 12 Conference school with a split program. Texas an- nounced Thursday that the new, combined head coach- ing position would be filled by Mario Sategna. Sategna, who has spent the last 10 seasons as an associate head coach under Thornton, ran track for Louisiana State University and has experi- ence coaching on both the collegiate and Olympic level. “Mario’s a really hard worker,” senior hurdler Kei- ron Stewart said last week. “He’s been here for a while, he’s worked in Bubba’s shad- ow for a long time. He knows the ropes, he knows the in- stitution, he knows what it stands for and he will push everyone to do their best, to give the most that they can give to the team.” Thornton’s decision to step down comes on the heels of women’s track and field head coach Beverly Kearney’s de- parture this past January, after the revelation of her relationship with a student- athlete in 2002. Kearney resigned upon learning that Texas was prepared to begin the termination process. Based on documents ob- tained from 2004, Kearney filed a complaint with Dodds, stating that Thornton tried to undermine Kearney and accused her of breaking NCAA rules. The two head coaches had a history of friction and Thornton spoke openly about eventually hoping to take con- trol of both programs. “With everything that happened here, the good, the bad or the ugly, he always re- mained Bubba,” Stewart said. According to a statement released by Texas, in retire- ment Thornton plans to take a greater role in community interests and spend more time with his wife of 43 years, Kay, daughters Courtney and Piper and his two grandchil- dren, Sam and Sophie. “I think it was time,” Stew- art said. “Bubba’s been here for 18 years. He’s done his time, put in a lot of work and now he gets to relax. He gave me great opportunities here.” Thornton, who is currently on vacation, could not be reached for further comment. SPORTS 9SPORTSMONDAY, JUNE 24, 20139Did you feel that? That kidney shot, that dag- ger to the heart, that excruciat- ing experience that was watch- ing the Spurs fall to the Heat in this year’s NBA Finals? When Tony Parker hit that wild turnaround over LeB- ron James to seal a Game 1 win, the shot clock seeming- ly stuck at 0.1 seconds for an eternity, it became the Spurs’ series to lose. After responding to the Game 2 loss with a 36-point shellacking of the Heat in Game 3, it seemed like they were well on their way to locking up their fifth NBA championship. The teams exchanged victories in Games 4 and 5 before returning to Miami for Game 6. One more victo- ry was all the Spurs needed. How sweet would it be for Commissioner David Stern to give Gregg Popovich that cov- eted Larry O’Brien Trophy in front of thousands of fickle, undeserving Heat fans? It would be the perfect ending for Stern to hand the trophy over to the same Spurs he fined $250,000 last November for sitting its play- ers in the only regular season meeting against Miami. But it wasn’t meant to be. The Spurs imploded in Game 6. Popovich proved even the best coaches make mistakes when he sat Tim Duncan on the last two de- fensive possessions before the Heat forced overtime with back-to-back three-pointers from James and Ray Allen. At the end of overtime, Manu Ginobili couldn’t fin- ish at the rim. Danny Green was blocked by Chris Bosh at the buzzer. It’s the kind of Game 6 loss that predetermines the outcome of Game 7. But if there was any team that could bounce back from such a demoralizing loss, it was the Popovich-led Spurs. Yet, they never took control of the game. The Heat triumphed, as James and Co. celebrated their second straight title. The team that was bought beat the team that was built. This one is going to sting for a while.

Spurs’ Finals loss to Heat painfulTHORNTONcontinues from page 8 10 L&AELYANA BARRERA, LIFE&ARTS EDITOR, @DTlifeandarts10MONDAY, JUNE 24, 2013MUSICApple’s iOS 7 is a game- changer for the smart phone. While many doubted that it was possible, Tim Cook and his crew over in Cuper- tino breathed new life into the iPhone. In mid-June, Apple of- ficially announced iOS 7, the refresh of the iPhone operating system. While previous iPhone operating system updates have only seen incremental changes to phone operation, the sev- enth iteration is the most radically different system update thus far. What sets iOS 7 apart from previous releases is that it de- livers more of a visually ap- pealing display, while making it easier and more intuitive for the user. When you are on the home screen, swiping up from the bottom of the screen will bring up “Con- trol Center,” which allows the user to toggle on or off a multitude of settings. Con- trol Center also has bright- ness and volume sliders, as well as a dedicated camera button and a flashlight ap- plication. When you tilt the home screen, the back- ground moves as a separate layer from your apps, giving a three-dimensional view. Adding to the new visuals is a slimmer font and new- ly redesigned application icons. Jony Ive, the head of hardware and software design at Apple, worked with the Apple marketing team in redesigning the application icons, which seemed to be more con- gruent with the visual lan- guage of Apple’s advertising campaigns. Apple has also done away with the “skeuo- morphism” that Steve Jobs loved, which is where ap- plications mimic the ap- pearance of real world objects such as a notepad or rolodex. Outside of the visual re- fresh, Apple has also added minor changes to the op- erating system, making the user experience less tedious. Among these changes is the ability to automatically up- date your applications in the background, which is a refreshing change. You no longer have to go into the Application Store and press “update all” every day. An- other addition is the abil- ity to have an unlimited amount of apps in a folder. While this seems like a no- brainer, Apple had previ- ously capped the folders at 12 applications. Apple also launched “iTunes Radio” with iOS 7, which is its version of Pan- dora Radio. With it, you are able to purchase any song through iTunes directly on your phone. Can Apple take back some of the mobile phone market share with iOS 7? Only time will tell. The changes Apple decides to make with the inevitable iPhone 5S will de- termine whether or not they can truly compete with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S4 or the HTC One, which both run their own unique, skinned versions of the An- droid operating system. “Sheddin’ tears is what I’m about” is not the typical ma- chismo line you would expect from a hip-hop artist. Little Pain (who uses the name Sob- bin Williams for inquires over email), a 21-year-old rapper from Brooklyn, is a pioneer of a new subgenre of hip-hop called sad rap. With songs like “SMH (Broke Boyz Anthem),” “High Cry” and “Love Tears,” it’s obvious that Little Pain isn’t afraid of hiding any of his emotions in his songs. “I’m sad for many reasons, but the main one is because we live in a sad world and I really don’t remember a time when I wasn’t sad,” Little Pain said. “I just try to relate my music to things that re- flect on me as a person.” In the great age of the Inter- net, it’s no surprise that such a niche subgenre has the pos- sibility of taking off. Lil B, a slapstick rapper who has vid- eos with over 1 million views, is the founder of “based” mu- sic, which he defines as being yourself and staying positive. This typically turns into stream-of-consciousness rapping, where the strive for perfection is almost looked down upon. “Lil B influences my music in the sense that he made it possible for someone like me to even be able make sad rap,” Little Pain said. It isn’t just hip-hop songs that are sad. There are plenty of tearjerkers in the broad genre. For example, there’s the hip-hop classic “Stan,” by Eminem, which tells the story of a fan committing suicide after Eminem didn’t reply to fan mail, which, ironically, was answered after his death. The emphasis of sad rap actually appears to be the act of crying. There are no real narrative in these songs, Little Pain is just always sad. In an interview with Pi- geons & Planes, Little Pain claimed to have cried after he stubbed his pinky toe about 20 minutes before the interview. Is sad rap something that we can take seriously? Probably not. But the art- ists in the subgenre appear to think we should. James Prudhomme, also known as Suicideyear, is one of the producers for Little Pain. “Sad rap doesn’t need to ‘take off,’” Prudhomme said. “There will always be sad rap, even after Little Pain.” It’s a nice breath of fresh air to see hip-hop artists experi- menting with something new. Kanye West’s “Yeezus,” which isn’t exactly avant-garde, isn’t a set of cookie-cutter raps over a set of 808 drums. Maybe we should look at this as the experimentation the genre needs to push the edge a bit. Or maybe it’s just some- thing fun that doesn’t need to change a thing. Either way it’s all in good (or sad) fun. In the meantime, Little Pain is currently perform- ing shows without very much promotion. Instead of the usual fliers and Face- book events, Little Pain opts to promote his shows with tweets in his classic style: “My performance is going to be horrible :’(.” TECHNOLOGYApple rises to challenge, introduces new changesBy Jay Egger@jayeggrBy Andrew Huygen@AndrewHuygenILLUSTRATION BY HANNAH HADIDI / Daily Texan StaffRappers not afraid to shed tears CLASS 11HOUSING RENTAL370 Unf.
