Vice presidential candi- dates Mike Pence and Tim Kaine faced off in a debate Tuesday night as students observed at watch parties throughout campus. LBJ School of Public Affairs held a watch party with Dean Angela Evans, where they ate food and discussed the de- bate, which primarily focused on defense of their respective running mates. Brooke Holleman, energy and earth resources and pub- lic affairs graduate student, said she did not hear as much about the environment as she would have liked. “Outside of Tim Kaine talk- ing about Hillary Clinton’s plan to invest in clean energy in terms of her jobs program, I didn’t hear anything from the other side,” Holleman said. “Natural resources is a re- ally important issue and that wasn’t at play much here.” Holleman said the format of the debate wasn’t well suited for a discussion of the issues. “It’s hard to have a discussion when you’re just trying to get points across,” Holleman said. “It would have been better suit- ed if each side could talk and have a more structured debate rather than a discussion.” Christopher Newman, pub- lic affairs graduate student, is an exchange student from Berlin, Germany, giving him a unique perspective on the 2016 presi- dential election. Because New- man is a dual citizen, he will be able to vote in November. New- man said he’s voting for Clinton and not just because he wants to vote against Trump. “For me, it really is a vote Brenda Nguyen, health and society sophomore, learned to use a pepper spray for the first time dur- ing West Campus National Night Out. The event, hosted by SafeHorns Tues- day night, was the first of its kind to be held in West Campus. National Night Out is a nationwide program start- ed in 1984 in order to get people to interact with their neighbors and police offi- cers to strengthen police- community relationships and reduce crime. UTPD and APD held a kick-off event Oct. 1, and this year’s Austin Na- tional Night Out includes several events on and off campus partnering with over 600 student and commercial organizations. UTPD Assistant Chief Peter Scheets has worked in municipal police for 20 years and said infor- mation and notifications from residents are valuable for police to better com- bat crimes and maintain a safer environment. “The community safety is the whole community’s con- cern, police officers are the ones who are paid to do it, full time, but it’s everybody’s responsibility,” Scheets said. “If we don’t actually get out and get into the commu- nity and find out what their concerns are, then we are not gonna be effective as a police department.” As the University’s “Be Safe” safety cam- paign continues through the fall semester, UTPD chief David Carter spoke Tuesday at Stu- dent Government’s general assembly meet- ing about the need for students and police to work together. Carter highlighted a number of concerns for the department during his speech, including student and UTPD rela- tions, and the various challenges the depart- ment faces policing what Carter called the “not- so-small city” of UT. “The tragic mur- der last spring clearly brought a lot of these is- sues to light,” Carter said of the April murder of freshman Haruka Weiser on campus. “We have to work together. We have to work and have stu- dents understand that their safety is in as much of their hands as ours.” Carter focused much of his speech on the need for UTPD to have a strong relationship with the student body, citing recent national incidents that he said may have damaged students’ trust in the department. “Our vision is not to be the safest place in the world,” Carter said. “Our vision is to be trusted and respected. If we are Mayor Steve Adler re- cently announced a new plan for a $10 million bond that will sustain lo- cal music venues facing surging rent in Austin and stimulate econom- ic development in the city’s industry. In a partnership with San Francisco-based start- up Neighborly, the money will be crowdsourced from various investors and will primarily be used to purchase and preserve iconic venues. “Austin won’t be the Live Music Capital of the World if we keep losing music venues,” Adler said. “Now, thanks to Neigh- borly, we have a way to do something about it.” James McIntyre, head of public finance for Neigh- borly, said the creativ- ity and history of civic in- volvement in Austin won the city the bid. While the money has not come in yet, Neighborly will help Austin raise the funds necessary to get the bond off the ground. Cole Gerthoffer, radio- television-film junior, is a member of the band Bron- co Simmons, which per- forms in venues around Texas, such as Austin’s Scoot Inn. Gerthoffer said the money should go to local and independent music venues to protect them against corporations wanting to buy them out. “What’s hurting are the small venues, because someone can’t afford to pay their rent because someone wants to out-buy When anthropology senior Juan Belman was 10 years old a Coyote led him, his mother and his four-year-old brother across the Rio Grande and into the U.S. Faced with an upcoming border checkpoint, Belman and his mother were forced to hide in the trunk while the smuggler and his wife pretended Belman’s brother was their own child. Belman and other De- ferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients will share their stories of trial and determination on Oct. 5 as part of the Cen- ter for Mexican American Studies’ Hispanic Heritage Month event, “Living the Dream: A real discussion on the impact of DACA.” The panel will discuss the pres- ent state of DACA and likely 1Wednesday, October 5, 2016@thedailytexanfacebook.com/dailytexanServing the University of Texas at Austin community since 1900dailytexanonline.com bit.ly/dtvidSPORTS PAGE 6COMICS PAGE 7LIFE&ARTS PAGE 8APD reports burglaries in Austin a low.

The investors will likely have very little input on which venues receive the money. That will be designated to a board or another type of managing body. “It’s going to be some sort of board, a group of people who are qualified to make these decisions in a professional way,” Stan- ford said. “There might be government people on the board, but it won’t be a government board.” This investment will be long term, with people buying shares just like any other investment. It is unclear at this point as to whether people will in- vest in the brick and mor- tar of the venue or the entire brand. “At the bare minimum, [the city] bringing atten- tion to this is a huge deal, and it deserves to be com- mended,” Gerthoffer said. “It’ll all depend on if they can actually put up what they say they’ll do.” Nick Roseman is the manager of The Local on Guadalupe Street. While he had not heard of this specific bond, Rose- man said the music ven- ues of Austin are facing financial problems. “This city is built on a tradition of live music, and it’s gotten to a point where rent has gotten out of control,” Roseman said. “Bands are putting in a lot of work and they’re not getting paid. They’re not getting paid a lot. If they’re not getting paid, it’s not going to happen, and then we’ll just be Forth Worth.” SafeHorns is a coalition of concerned UT parents and other stakeholders committed to taking con- structive action to im- prove safety on and around UT campus. “We’ve learned that a lot of students don’t en- gage,” said Joell McNew, a founding member of SafeHorns. “If students don’t report crime, then it’s not real, because APD counts violent crimes, as- sault and all these things, they get all these statis- tics and data based on actual reporting.” Isaiah Carter, Student Gov- ernment chief of staff, pitched his idea for a safe map that evaluates every street in West Campus to help students make informed decisions about how to walk home dur- ing the event. Carter said SG is trying to combat students concerns and promote safety. “Students cannot do this alone,” Carter said. “We need help from adminis- trators, we need help from parents and organizations and community leaders, we need help from busi- ness leaders in order for this to work.” After attending the event, Nguyen said she felt events like this were helpful and should be held annually. “With initiatives like this, you start to feel that there are resources out there for you to go to, there are actually people who care about making campus safer,” Nguyen said. Expanding out of an apart- ment and into an office down- town, a group of UT alumni created Campus Watch, an app focused on improving student safety. The app, which was sup- posed to have a beta launch on Oct. 3 but was delayed, allows students to send crime tips. The tips are later compiled into a heat map of the campus for other users in real time. The students can use a help button through the app to send their coordinates to dispatch centers in order to connect with UTPD and APD. Paolo Soriano, a creator of Campus Watch, said he thought of the idea for the app in response to recent safety concerns. Soriano said he wants students to feel safe on campus at all times because of the app. “Whether it’s mass shootings or rape cases, there is a sense of instability amongst the students where they don’t feel safe,” So- riano said. “They should feel safe in a place where they are getting an education, so we set out to fix a problem that no one seemed to want to fix.” Soriano said the goal of the app is to prevent crime before it happens. “On the surface, our prob- lem is safety — which means there is crime,” Soriano said. “So we want to prevent the crime, not react to it after.” Masha Romanova, Campus Watch’s director of communi- cations, said she wants students to actively participate in their safety by eliminating the by- stander effect using the app’s tips feature. “You’re able to submit tips whether they’re emergency or non-emergency for you or someone else,” Romanova said.“ [We want] people actual- ly paying attention to the world around them and participate in protecting their peers.” Management senior Al- fredo del Barrio heads the app’s business development and fundraising. As a current UT student, he said his goal is to make the app available to everyone free of charge and for the app to be included in University budgets. “Our total cost would be 1 percent of the safety budget for UT, but for that 1 percent we do much, we’re access to safety in the palm of your hand,” del Barrio said. “I never want there to be a day where a student has to pay for something that should be free.” Radio-television-film se- nior Natalie Miller says she is excited at the prospect of having another way to access safety services. “It seems like a good alterna- tive to the police call light posts, because it doesn’t depend on your being in the right place at the right time,” Miller said. “It definitely sounds like some- thing I would use.” Campus Watch will officially be released in November, and the team welcomes any student feedback on what needs to be included the app before then. “It’s student-generated,” So- riano said. “They can actively take part in their safety and not wait for someone else to stand up for them — but for them to stand up for themselves.” Name: 5011/Taco Bell - Tacala Austin; Width: 19p4; Depth: 4 in; Color: Black, 5011/Taco Bell - Tacala Austin; Ad Num- ber: 50112Main Telephone(512) 471-4591Editor-in-ChiefAlexander Chase(512) 232-2212editor@dailytexanonline.comManaging EditorJackie Wang (512) 232-2217managingeditor@ dailytexanonline.comNews Office(512) 232-2207news@dailytexanonline.comSports Officesports@dailytexanonline.comLife & Arts Office(512) 232-2209lifeandarts@dailytexanon- line.comMultimedia Office(512) 471-8618multimedia@ dailytexanonline.comRetail Advertising(512) 471-1865advertise@texasstudentme- dia.comClassified Advertising(512) 471-5244classifieds@ dailytexanonline.comCONTACT USVolume 117, Issue 40TOMORROW’S WEATHERHighLow9070Free Matty B.

FRAMES featured photo thedailytexanSAFETYcontinues from page 1BONDcontinues from page 1GAMES & TECHNOLOGYAlumni create Campus Watch safety app By Marina Vences@marina_vencesRECYCLEyour copy ofWhether it’s mass shootings or rape cases, there is a sense of instability amongst the students where they don’t feel safe … they should feel safe in place where they are getting an education. —Paolo Soriano, Campus Watch creator for Hillary Clinton not only against Donald Trump, be- cause I think she is definitely qualified,” Newman said. “It seems strange to me that she’s having as hard a time as she is.” Newman said his friends in Germany view American poli- tics as entertainment and are even staying up late to watch the debates despite the seven hour time difference. “They are watching it with great fascination,” Newman said. “They’re staying up and watching the debates be- cause they care a lot about the American election. They just think it’s a huge theater, it’s Hollywood on stage.” The two candidates raised concerns with the oppos- ing party’s nominee, such as Trump’s treatment of former Miss Universe Alicia Machado and the Clinton email scandal. “Donald Trump can’t start a Twitter war with Miss Universe without shooting himself in the foot,” Kaine said. In regards to the Clinton email scandal, Pence said her private server was an issue of national cyber security. “I will also tell you that it’s important in this moment to remember that Hillary Clin- ton had a private server in her home that had classified information on it about drone strikes,” Pence said. “Emails from the president of the Unit- ed States of America were on there … We could put cyber- security first if we just make sure the next secretary of state doesn’t have a private server.” The next presidential de- bate will be on Sunday at 8 p.m. It will be held at Wash- ington University in St. Louis. This debate will differ from previous debates as half of the questions will be asked by uncommitted voters chosen by Gallup. After a public hearing on Tuesday, police departments in Texas may be required to include instructions for ci- vilians about how to make a complaint about a police interaction on every citation or ticket. The state Senate Criminal Justice Committee hearing was geared towards address- ing issues of law enforce- ment and race relations, and brought together law enforce- ment and members of the Af- rican-American community at the Capitol. Sen. Royce West, D-Dallas, introduced the idea of print- ing instructions on how to file complaints about the ticket- ing process for the consider- ation of the committee. The proposal suggests the directions for filing com- plaints be printed directly onto the physical ticket. Art Acevedo, the chief of the Austin Police Depart- ment, says he is already in the design process to implement this change. “We are going to put infor- mation on how to complain on our citations,” Acevedo said after the hearing. “We’ll also put information on how to give feedback, good or bad, because we also want to rein- force good behavior.” With this change, citizens who are pulled over or de- tained will be given explicit instructions on how they can file a complaint if they feel they are mistreated by an of- ficer. Steven McCraw, director of the Department of Public Safety, said he will move to do the same for the statewide law enforcement agency. Reverend James W.E. Dix- on, one of three community leaders who testified, said his 9-year-old child is terrified of police and is aware of how the color of his skin may af- fect his relationship with the police. “I feel threatened whenever the police stop me,” Dixon said. “I am an endangered species and so is my 9-year- old son.” Other possible solutions considered by the commit- tee were a ninth grade civics class teaching students how to interact with police, imme- diate release of police video upon any complaint, training on how to make traffic stops less aggressive and instituting a minimum penalty for police misconduct. McCraw said immediate release of dashcam and body camera footage is something that must occur. He pointed to how quickly the DPS released the footage of the death of Sandra Bland, who was found hanging in her jail cell after being stopped for a minor traffic violation in Waller County. West also cited a situation in Chicago, where footage of the incident was not released for about 14 months because of the investigation. “It doesn’t get prettier over time,” McCraw said. “It is what it is.” Acevedo said the big- gest issue with policing is not brutality but the lack of respect and sometimes rudeness that is felt by citi- zens from police officers who make traffic stops and police neighborhoods. “The number one complaint against police officers is not brutality, it is rudeness,” Acev- edo said. “It’s not being respect- ful. We cannot have a stop and frisk policy. We cannot act like an occupying army.” The hearing will be one of many criminal justice hear- ings that will be organized before the legislative session begins in January. Brochures that detail how citizens can make complaints about police are currently in the design process and should be released in the next few weeks, Acevedo said. trusted and respected by all students, then that means we’re keeping you safe.” SG Chief of Staff Isa- iah Carter, who primarily sponsors SG initiatives on student safety, said having an open line of commu- nication with the UTPD is paramount to keeping student relations with the department strong. “I think it’s important because I heavily believe in this idea of community po- licing, where officers build relationships with their constituents and the peo- ple they’re serving,” Cart- er said. “So I think it’s an amazing thing, and I think students are going to gain a lot from it. We now have a perspective of the chief, and he has a perspective of the students.” Carter pointed to the de- partment’s motto through- out the speech when talk- ing about the need for a strong relationship. “Every interaction be- tween a police officer and a citizen not only shapes that citizen, but can shape and develop that police of- ficer in the future,” Carter said. “We have our vision, mission and values, but we also have that motto, ‘Protecting those who will change the world,’ and that’s you.” After the speech, the as- sembly continued the meet- ing’s theme of safety and passed A.R. 9, a resolution supporting the implementa- tion of campus-wide “Stop the Bleed” kits and training programs for students. The bill asks the Uni- versity to place the kits, for use in the event of a situation of uncontrolled blood loss due to a wound, throughout campus next to Automatic Electronic Defibrillator locations in University buildings. “I think it’s a tremen- dous benefit,” SG Presi- dent Kevin Helgren said. “I’m a huge believer in the idea behind and the spirit of bystander inter- vention. I think it would be awesome for a student nearby to take a proac- tive role in your safety by aiding you until a more formal role of help can be made available.” Burglary crimes in the Austin area have hit a re- cord low, according to the Austin Police Depart- ment’s 2015 Annual Crime and Traffic Report. There were 5,000 total burglaries, about 563 bur- glaries per 100,000 residents in 2015, the lowest rate Aus- tin has seen in 20 years. “Citizens are starting to help prevent these crimes by locking their doors and keeping their property out of sight,” said Norman Buja- nos, detective for the Austin Police Department burglary unit. “It’s making things less opportunistic for burglars to see your stuff.” Bujanos covers downtown and central west Austin and said they usually see a rise of burglaries in apartment com- plexes when school starts. “The most common causes of residential bur- glaries have been unlocked doors,” Bujanos said. “A majority of our burglaries are coming in the daytime when people are at work or at school.” Nursing sophomore Avery Condrey said her apartment at Regents West at 24th was burglarized Monday after her roommate Sarah left the door unlocked for a friend to pick a dress up. “Sarah was coming home on the phone with her mom and saw our door was cracked open,” Condrey said. “All of our purses were on our beds opened up like someone had gone through them, and that’s when we knew someone had broken in.” Condrey said only Sarah’s computer was stolen. They reported the crime to UTPD, who quickly referred them to APD to file a report. “Of course the one time we leave the door un- locked someone comes in,” Condrey said. The recent University of Texas 2016 annual secu- rity and fire police report showed 18 total on-campus burglaries in 2015. In com- parison, there were 36 on- campus burglaries in 2012, 37 cases in 2013 and 34 cases in 2014, according to the University of Texas’s 2015 annual security report. UT police officer Ben Land said community out- reach has been the big- gest effort officers have made in reducing crime in the campus area. “A lot of these criminals are just targets of opportu- nities,” Land said. “We look at how to deny people those opportunities and to make students more aware of their surroundings.” Land said about 90 per- cent of reported crimes are property crimes and about 10 percent are crimes against people. APD district representa- tives and detectives in the APD burglary unit put on presentations for homeown- ers associations to let them know how to prevent bur- glaries for the neighborhood watch program, Bujanos said. “[If] people are just be- ing a little bit smarter with they’re doing, I think it makes the Austin area a lot safer,” Bujanos said. Following the first pres- idential debate on Sept. 26, a Google Trend con- cerning Hispanic voter registration interest lev- els circulated on different social media platforms. The search for “regis- trarse para votar,” which translates to “register to vote” in English, was at its all-time peak during the debate, and increased even further the day after. Business sophomore Sabrina Sifuentes, a first- generation voter, said po- tential Hispanic voters’ sudden interest in this election is because of an- ger caused by negative claims made about their communities and on im- migration during the presidential race. Sifuentes said her deci- sion to register stemmed from her parents’ lack of opportunity to voice their political views. “It’s not something that’s talked about in a Hispanic household, at least not with mine,” Sifuentes said. “I am not happy with the current society we live in and I want to see changes. I’d like to be someone who changes the stereotype of the typical voter and I want to be a role model for my younger siblings and for generations after me.” While people of His- panic descent have con- tinuously had the lowest voter turnout among oth- er ethnicities, a July 2016 poll from the Pew Re- search Center found that 63 percent of Hispanic voters are more involved in this election than in 2012. This poll also shows that 60 percent of all vot- ers are more involved than in the previous election. Texas does not keep re- cord of voters’ ethnicities upon registering; however, in various states across the nation, there have been rises in the number of Hispanic people making up the electorate. Kim Sue Lia “KSL” Per- kes, communications di- rector at the Travis Coun- ty Tax Office, said people would be less inclined to register if asked their race or ethnicity. “We don’t take that type of information because we want to keep registra- tion as simple as possible,” Perkes said. Bailey Schumm, direc- tor of Hook the Vote, a nonpartisan agency of Student Government, said government officials do not always reflect the diverse population they represent. As diversity among voters continues to rise, this trend will be reflected in the political atmosphere on both the national and state level, Schumm said. “Diversity is necessary in terms of the govern- ment because you’ll find a lot of perspectives and priorities,” said Schumm, a public health junior. “Voting is one of the easi- est ways of influencing your government.” Name: 5013/Buffalo Exchange; Width: 29p6; Depth: 5 in; Color: Black, 5013/Buffalo Exchange; Ad Number: 5013W&N 3NEWSWednesday, October 5, 20163UTPDcontinues from page 1State Senate implements citation complaint systemCITYZoe Fu | Daily Texan StaffArt Acevedo speaks on a panel addressing issues of law enforcement and race relations at the Senate Criminal Justice Committee on Tuesday.

Infographic by Elizabeth Jones | Daily Texan Staff Republicans seem to be experiencing trouble on how to spin their climate change denial. Ohio Gov. John Kasich debuted a new line of attack on climate change at the Texas Tribune Festival in late September, saying that he believes “we have an obliga- tion to take care of [the Earth], but not wor- ship it.” Comments like these are not only disingenuous but are downright harmful to the fight against climate change. In case Kasich and his Republican col- leagues don’t know, climate change is a real, pressing threat. Sea levels are rising, oceans are facing acidification and our government has even categorized climate change as a national security issue. If we don’t take decisive action soon, the effects of our emissions will become irreversible. But even with an overwhelming consensus that yields an undeniable conclusion, Re- publicans still don’t see an impetus to act. To complicate matters even further, Kasich, along with Vice Presidential Candidate Mike Pence, are introducing a new factor into the equation: clean coal. As keynote speaker at the Texas Tribune Festival, the Ohio governor said that we should continue to depend on coal and just “dig, clean it and burn it.” Now that seems just lovely, until you get past the spin and into the specifics. Coal provides almost half of the energy needed to produce electricity and has earned the title of being the biggest air polluter we have. Even if we clean it, it’s just like putting a dress on a pig because the problem still remains. By some estimates, clean coal would in- crease mining operations because it requires an estimated 25 percent more energy to pro- duce the same amount as the regular coal we are used to. Combine that with our crumbling infrastructure that we would need to trans- port the increased tonnage, and you have something as messy as a conservative trying to dodge an answer to fixing our climate. Now don’t get me wrong, fixing coal would be better than doing absolutely nothing with it — especially while it still makes up a sub- stantial portion of our nation’s energy infra- structure. In fact, President Obama’s climate plan includes provisions that incentivize the use of carbon capture technology, dem- onstrating our reliance on coal for the near future. But we cannot sit idly by and allow politicians like John Kasich and Mike Pence tout these buzzword technologies without also proposing plans that include renew- able energy solutions that are proven to help combat the issue of climate change. By making the bold move to transition our nation to a green future, we would see a re- newed boom in the global economy, improved living conditions and an increase of jobs that could be measured in millions, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency. In the end, our politicians hold the power to dictate the future of our world. It’s about time that Kasich follows his own advice, in that “when you get responsibility, put your hands on the wheel and drive the car.” Let’s just hope that car runs on renewable energy. Marshall is a government freshman from Mabank. Last week, the Philadelphia 76ers became the first professional sports franchise to own an e-sports team when they acquired Team Dignitas, which is best described as the 76ers of the e-sports world (both teams have been starving for wins since 2015). On the oppo- site end of the skill spectrum, Peter Guber, executive chairman of the Golden State War- riors, who set an NBA record by winning 73 games during the 2015-16 season, finalized a partnership with the internationally ranked, popular e-sports franchise Team Liquid, forming the e-sports ownership group aXi- omatic. It seems power follows power. This year has been a big one for Ameri- can e-sports, which is commonly known as competitive video gaming. What began with 10,000 participants in a Space Invaders tournament in 1980 is now a 150-million- person global fanbase that includes icons such as Shaquille O’Neal, Magic Johnson and DJ Steve Aoki — each of whom has in- vested in e-sports franchises. Having come from such humble beginnings, the intro- duction of organizations as large as the 76ers and the Golden State Warriors marks a significant pivot for e-sports. Besides the publicity, the financial gambles by big organizations give investors a sense of security in funding teams that subsist on tournament winnings. Team backers, on average, lose $180,000 per team, a daunting fact for investors. Teams that don’t win big or often will usually disband; a team’s loss is a loss in a team’s stock value. As more influ- ential organizations invest into these digital gaming teams, it becomes increasingly im- portant to consider what precedents these NBA franchises set with e-sports teams. While the terms of the 76ers’ acquisition of Team Dignitas and Apex Gaming are still not clear, an email interview with Team Liq- uid’s co-CEO Victor Goossens explained why the franchise’s new partnership with aXiomatic would set a positive precedent. Goossens explains that while aXiomatic now has a controlling interest, Team Liq- uid will retain its internal hierarchy, both co-CEOs will keep their titles and team players will have the same amount of au- tonomy as always. “This deal would not have gone through if we had wanted to leave Team Liquid, and that shows how much Peter values our direct involvement,” Goossens said. “[My co-CEO] and I are excited to learn as much as we can from our [new] part- ners, but we know we can also teach them a thing or two about our industry.” He claims the new partnership would ex- change Team Liquid’s “product” for more financial stability, access to resources and networking opportunities than he could have dreamed of. This is not the story of an NBA titan claiming a digital gaming franchise nor is this the story of a gaming franchise left with a label and none of the associated re- sources. Mutual profit is all fine and dandy, but for competitive gaming fans and play- ers, the preservation of each e-sports team’s brand, streamers and associated communi- ties are paramount. As Goossens puts it, “This is about a group of co-owners coming together with the same goals and vision,” and this balance ought to be the goal for future e-sports partnerships. Duran is international relations and global studies freshman from Spring. As Texans, we are no longer shocked by the absurdity that constantly escapes from the State Capitol. Between the often perni- cious bills passed in the Lege and the seem- ingly large population of ignorant and out- of-touch lawmakers that inhabit it, it is often hard to have faith in our state government. Despite this overall disdain, we must give credit where credit is due. On Sept. 27, crews started assembling the Texas African- American History Memorial on the lawn of the Capitol, which is set to be completed by the end of the fall. The statue represents the history of African-Americans in Texas and their contributions to the state, with a spe- cific section dedicated to emancipation in the state. This achievement is the result of a fight extending back over 20 years, and is well overdue. We cannot ignore our darkness: dis- tance from our terrible history can only hap- pen through active acknowledgment of it, not through ignoring or downplaying it. While it would appear Texas lawmakers are finally starting to understand the importance of such measures, we know not to get too ex- cited. What’s the catch? The statue will appear on the lawn of a build- ing severely decorated with pro-Confederate imagery. When placed on the same grounds as a plaque located in the Capitol building that calls Confederate war veterans “patriotic” and denies slavery was a cause for the Civil War to the several statues of Confederate soldiers on the lawn, the ode to Texas’ African-Americans appears insincere and a step simply made for the sake of appeasement. The lawmakers who fought for this statue for over two decades finally achieved their goal of some sort of rep- resentation. But sadly, the statue will still be largely overshadowed by inherently racist im- agery that celebrates, rather than condemns, those who fought on the side of tyranny. We understand any Texans have distant relatives who fought on the side of the Confed- eracy and want to actively defend their service out of a purely emotional appeal. But despite our ties, it is not worthy of celebration. And that’s OK. A person is not defined by the actions of their ancestors. What matters is how they choose to react given the facts. But nearly 150 years later, it is time to recognize that our ancestors had faults not worthy of celebration. We cannot continue to celebrate bigotry and try to downplay it by placing an inclusive statue within a few feet. And defending these statues as pieces of history also misses the larger purpose behind their placement. Many of these monuments were built as a way to make clear statements during times of racial tension. Following Plessy v. Ferguson and during the Civil Rights era, these monuments cropped up across the South — including the placement of the Chil- dren of the Confederacy Creed plaque inside the capitol building in 1959, and the nam- ing of a state office building for Confederacy Postmaster General John H. Reagan in 1962. But while the statues are undoubtedly prob- lematic — they stand to memorialize those who fought to keep slavery legal — they’re less problematic than that plaque, which aban- dons the facade of memorializing a particular brave ancestor for their service in order to fur- ther the carefully crafted lie that is the “states’ rights” explanation for the Civil War. For all the cries of revisionism that Con- federate apologists make whenever a statue is removed or a building renamed, this under- standing is the literal definition of rewriting history. The Texas Ordinance of Secession outlines why African slaves “were rightfully held and regarded as an inferior and depen- dent race, and in that condition only could their existence in this country be rendered beneficial or tolerable.” The only rights it dis- cusses are what they perceive to be the right of white men to own slaves. We’d prefer that the statues that memorial- ize those who fought for this cause be taken down, but we also know that’s almost guar- anteed not to happen. For now, we simply ask that the state acknowledge that what they fought for was wrong, and remove a plaque that fights hard to heroize those who deserve the opposite. The African-Americans who have fought for over 150 years to be recognized as equals are those who deserve to be heroized. We congratulate all those who have fought to make this a possibility, especially State Sen. Rodney Ellis, who has for years spearheaded the effort to have this statue built. But it is never enough to be complacent with a small victory in the face of overwhelming injustice. And that’s what this is. 4 OPINION4ALEXANDER CHASE, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF | @TexanEditorialWednesday, October 5, 2016LEGALESE | Opinions expressed in The Daily Texan are those of the editor, the Editorial Board or the writer of the article.

By The Daily Texan Editorial Board@TexanEditorial developments in the con- text of the upcoming presidential election. “I didn’t realize the danger of crossing the border,” Bel- man said. “I just remember standing in front of the river knowing that soon I was go- ing to be able to see my dad.” Professor Denise Gilman, director of the Immigration Clinic at the UT Law School, will moderate the panel. She said the DACA program was announced in 2012 as a way to address the professional barriers undocumented stu- dents in the U.S. face after graduation. DACA protects them against deportation and provides work authorization but is not permanent and doesn’t lead to citizenship. “There were so many peo- ple who were in this horrible limbo situation,” Gilman said. “They feared deportation but it was more than that. It was this idea that they’d worked so hard but they couldn’t do any- thing to benefit themselves and their family by working as professionals. This was fi- nally a chance to become a part of the community in a more meaningful way.” After finding out about DACA, Belman began work- ing with the University Lead- ership Initiative, an under- graduate organization which partners with the Equal Jus- tice Center to spread infor- mation about DACA and fa- cilitate the application process through pro bono clinics. As an advocate for ULI, Belman attended a speech given by President Obama at the Paramount Theatre in the summer of 2014. He and his brother risked being es- corted out by the Secret Ser- vice when they stood up and repeated, “Stop deportation, expand administrative relief.” “At the end of his speech, [Obama] pointed toward us and [we were] escorted to the back of the theater where we got to share our stories and really tell him how his immi- gration policies had affected us,” Belman said. Nutrition senior Edgar Navarrete is another DACA recipient who will speak at the panel. Though his family came to the U.S. wi th a visitor’s visa, they stayed illegally in order to escape the gang violence and job scarcity in their hometown. Navarrete, however, wasn’t aware of his undocumented status until he began applying to colleges. “I grew up going to school and doing the pledge of al- legiance,” Navarrete said. “I thought I was as American as the people beside me.” Navarrete didn’t let it stop him. He conducted his own research on immigra- tion relief and gathered all the necessary paperwork to submit his DACA applica- tion and receive a work per- mit. Today, he is working toward becoming a licensed Texas attorney who prac- tices immigration law so that he can help students in similar situations. But according to Gilman, the future of programs like DACA is uncertain. “[Those] who support and care for young people who have DACA should be paying close attention knowing that the outcome of this election is very like- ly to affect the future of the DACA program,” Gilman said. “Depending on what happens in the election it could be taken away.” The voices of the rare Texas- German dialect are singing their swan song, but documen- tarian Chase Honaker is on a mission to capture their final notes on film. It all started with five gruel- ing days of interviews, film- ing and editing as part of the 2014 Fusion Documentary Challenge. The end result was “All Gut Things,” a six-minute documentary about the dying German dialect. Now, Honaker and pro- ducer Ashley James are devel- oping “All Gut Things” into a feature-length project. With over 50 percent of their film- ing complete, they hope the crowd-funding campaign they’ll launch this Thursday at the German Free School will provide them with the funding to complete filming and move them into post-production. The documentary, which they plan to complete by April of 2017, focuses on the work of the Texas German Dialect Project. The TGDP, run by Germanic studies professor Hans Boas, has been docu- menting the language since the organization’s founding in 2001. Honaker and James have been following this group and filming interviews with native speakers to document the lan- guage before it dies out. “I always knew there was this German population in Texas, but I didn’t realize there was this language and culture that was even more under- ground,” Honaker said. “That this culture still exists but the language is going extinct is what interested me even more. Our question is: if the language goes extinct, what else goes along with it?” According to linguistics professor James Slotta, Texas- German is unusual because heritage languages normally die out by the third generation of migrants. Despite the lan- guage’s comparative longevity, it wasn’t able to withstand lin- gering prejudices following the World Wars. Anti-German sentiments following these wars led to a sharp decline in teaching the language. Native speakers con- sciously, or sometimes uncon- sciously, stopped transmitting the language to their children. Baby boomers might know a little bit of the language, but don’t speak it fluently. Texas- German never recovered from this loss. By 1950, the number of new speakers of the lan- guage was virtually zero. Texas-German, projected to be extinct by the year 2040, is only one of the world’s 7,000 languages, half of which are ex- pected to be extinct by the end of the 21st century. For Diane Moltz, one of the native speakers interviewed as part of the TGDP, the Texas- German culture and language remain a large part of her life. She and her husband grew up speaking the language in and around New Braunfels, and today, they continue to partici- pate in a range of cultural ac- tivities, from singing in a Ger- man choir to participating as officers in a polka dance club. Although the Moltzs’ children share in their com- munity involvement, none of them speak more than a few scattered phrases in Texas-German. “Our children have all said to us, ‘Why didn’t you teach us German?’” said Moltz. “If I had it to do over again I would. But when I was a young per- son that wasn’t very important to me.” Moltz, born in 1940, is a member of the aging popula- tion of remaining Texas-Ger- man speakers. Slotta said that once the oldest generation of a community constitutes its only speakers, a language has reached a stage where chances of recovery are slim. Honaker believes that TGDP is important because of the deep influence made by the wave of German immigrants that migrated to Texas in the early 1830s. “So many things that we consider ‘Texan’ came about because of when the Germans that migrated here,” said Hon- aker. “Dying languages are a really interesting phenomenon that we need to document be- cause their impact on our own culture could be huge.” Name: CLASSIFIDES; Width: 60p0; Depth: 10 in; Color: Black, CLASSIFIDES; Ad Number: - 2400 Pearl St., W. campus, Austin, TX 78705www.HOFT.edu 512-472-6666 Good grades...the best Christmas gift for your parents!

Filmmaker documents Texas-German cultureFILMBy Morgan O’Hanlon@mcohanlonThis was finally a chance to become a part of the community in a more meaningful way. —Denise Gilman, Director of Immigration ClinicLIFE&ARTSWednesday, October 5, 20165 Texas and No. 20 Okla- homa are set to face off at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas on Saturday. While the pro- grams have been fairly even on the field over the last few years — both have won two of the last four — the two dif- fer in producing pro players. Here’s a positional break- down of the Longhorns and Sooners in the NFL. Quarterback: OklahomaFormer Sooner Sam Brad- ford from the Minnesota Vikings is the only starting quarterback from the two schools. Washington Red- skins’ Colt McCoy had suc- cess against Bradford in col- lege with wins in 2008 and 2009, but serves as his team’s backup in the pros. Running back: OklahomaTexas offers Fozzy Whit- taker from the Carolina Panthers against Oklahoma’s DeMarco Murray (Tennes- see Titans) and Adrian Pe- terson (Minnesota Vikings). Whittaker has charged for 141 rushing yards this sea- son while Murray has 340 yards and three touchdowns through four games. Peter- son is a seven-time pro bowl selection, but will miss the majority of the season with an injured knee. Advantage Oklahoma. Wide Receiver: OklahomaTexas has just one active NFL receiver to its name in Buffalo Bills’ Marquise Goodwin. Oklahoma brings two receivers to the table in New York Giants rookie Sterling Shepard and Mi- ami Dolphins’ Kenny Stills. Both Shepard and Stills have more career yards and touchdowns than Good- win, giving the advantage to the Sooners. Defensive Line: TexasOklahoma boasts one of the top defensive tackles in the NFL in Tampa Bay Buc- caneers’ Gerald McCoy, who is a four-time pro bowler. However, the Longhorns win the position battle with quan- tity. Texas produced several quality defensive linemen, including Arizona Cardinals’ Alex Okafor, Indianapolis Colts’ Hassan Ridgeway, New England Patriots’ Malcom Brown and Vikings’ Brian Robison. Linebacker: TexasHeadlined by Kansas City Chiefs’ Derrick Johnson and Titans’ Brian Orakpo, the Longhorns take the lineback- er spot. The duo combines for seven pro bowls, while Oklahoma has zero pro bowl linebackers in the league. Top Sooners include Denver Broncos’ Corey Nelson and Buccaneers’ Devante Bond. Secondary: TexasOften dubbed “DBU” for having defensive backs draft- ed, the Longhorns hold the edge on the back end. Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas is a five-time All-Pro hon- oree, while Carolina Panthers safety Michael Griffin has played in two Pro Bowls. Tex- as also boasts solid second- ary contributors in Detroit Lions’ Quandre Diggs, New Orleans Saints’ Kenny Vac- caro and San Diego Charges’ Adrian Phillips. The Sooners have just one NFL defensive back in Jacksonville Jaguars’ Aaron Colvin. Special Teams: TexasTexas wins the special teams battle by default with two kickers to Oklahoma’s none. Baltimore Ravens’ Jus- tin Tucker made the Pro Bowl in 2013, while San Francisco’s Phil Dawson was selected in 2012 as a member of the Cleveland Browns. The Soon- ers have one active NFL punt- er in Redskins’ Tress Way. Oklahoma climbs back into AP Top 25It wasn’t pretty, but Okla- homa went into Fort Worth and came out with a much- needed victory against then- No. 21 TCU. The Sooners’ defense gave up 21 points in the first quarter, but held on to claim a 52-46 victory. Junior quarterback Baker Mayfield who was considered a Heis- man contender prior to the season, returned to form after a lackluster start to the season. Mayfield accounted for four of the Sooners’ touchdowns, running two into the endzone and connecting with senior receiver Dede Westbrook for the other two. Oklahoma crawled back into the top-25 after dropping out earlier in the season following losses to Houston and Ohio State. Oklahoma is slated to face off against Texas this weekend in the Red River Showdown in Dallas. Both teams hold 2-2 records and are looking to salvage their seasons. Texas Tech wins at a costTexas Tech blew past Kansas with a 55-19 victory on Thurs- day, but the win came with a price. Junior quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the nation’s third- leading passer, injured his shoulder in the third quarter — he’s currently “day-to-day”, according to Texas Tech. Ma- homes threw for 277 yards and four touchdowns before leav- ing the game. Junior quarterback Nic Shimonek took over for Ma- homes and proved to be up to the task. Shimonek mir- rored Mahomes’ passing prowess, throwing for 271 yards and four touchdowns in the victory. After the game, head coach Kliff Kingsbury said he would be “very comfortable” with playing Shimonek at quarter- back if Mahomes is unavailable in the coming weeks. Texas Tech will travel to Manhattan, Kansas, this weekend to face Kansas State. Baylor sneaks by to remain un- defeatedThrough five weeks, No. 13 Baylor and No. 22 West Virginia remain the only perfect teams in the Big 12 after barely edging out their opponents on Saturday. Baylor hung on to the top spot in the Big 12 after sneaking out a 45-42 vic- tory against Iowa State on the road. The Bears stormed back from a 14-point fourth quarter deficit and sealed the victory with a 19-yard field goal as the clock hit zero. Senior running back Shock Linwood — the con- ference’s third-leading rush- er — carried the ball for 237 yards and one touchdown. The Bears’ defense shutout the Cyclones in the final period to steal the win.

The team entered the day in eighth, but struggled in round three with a 295 score — the worst of any team that finished in the top-10. Vanderbilt won the tournament with a score 1-under par, just one stroke ahead of Florida. Senior Gavin Hall shot a 74 on the final day to finish the tour- nament tied for No. 14, while junior Doug Ghim recorded a 72 and finished No. 27. Other Longhorn par- ticipants include ju- nior Scottie Scheffler and sophomores Steven Chervony and Taylor Funk — the trio finished No. 45, tied at 48 and tied at 69, respectively. Cher- vony shot a final round 79 and Funk recorded a 74. Texas has a few weeks off before its next tour- nament appearance. The team will compete at The Golf Club of Georgia Collegiate on Oct. 21-23. —Russel JonesSPORTS BRIEFLYBy Sydney Rubin@sydneyrrubinGilbert talks receiving optionsSophomore receiver John Burt has battled a hand injury in recent weeks that has pre- vented him from producing at a high level, according to offensive coordinator Sterlin Gilbert. Gilbert said Burt, who still leads Texas in receiving with 191 yards (with 111 of those coming in week one against Notre Dame), suffered the in- jury in week two. Gilbert said the injury has progressively gotten better since then. The first-year offensive co- ordinator also highlighted se- nior receiver Jake Oliver, who hadn’t recorded a reception until this season. The Dallas native now has 13 receptions for the Longhorns after win- ning the starting slot receiver job in training camp . “He’s got those kind of ball skills, those kind of … under- standing the space, where to be at, how to fit in space, how to run a route,” Gilbert said. “Those kinds of things are at- tributes we’re looking for in receivers that fit in this offense and our schemes.” Leonard excited, confident heading to Dallas Junior receiver Dorian Leonard said despite the back- to-back losses, the team has all the confidence it needs know- ing it’s preparing to play in the Cotton Bowl against Texas’ biggest rival on the schedule. With the stadium split at the 50-yard line, half in burnt orange and the other half in crimson, Leonard said it’s an easy game to get excited to play in. He said running out of the tunnel is the best part of the game’s atmosphere. “It’s crazy because when you run out, you’re on the OU side,” Leonard said. “So you just hear ‘Boo! Boo!’ Then the further you get out, you start hearing your fans … It just gives you a lot of momentum going into the game.” Foreman extra motivated to play Oklahoma Junior running back D’Onta Foreman said he has extra motivation when play- ing Oklahoma every season. His twin brother, junior re- ceiver Armanti, originally committed to Oklahoma, while Foreman didn’t receive an offer from the Sooners. “I always had certain schools that offered him but didn’t offer me,” Foreman said. “But there’s just some- thing about OU. I think it was the first offer he got. And it was just the way it hap- pened.” Oklahoma might have re- gretted not offering Foreman a scholarship when he rattled off an 81-yard rush in last year’s matchup. The play set Texas up to take a 24-10 lead in an eventual 24-17 victory. “We just went out there and played hard and we felt like we could win a game,” Foreman said. “I feel like this season is the same thing. We’re going to go out there and play hard, and I feel like we can get a win.” By Tyler Horka@TexasTy95Juan Figueroa | Daily Texan StaffJunior running back D’Onta Foreman is extra motivated for Texas’ matchup with Oklahoma after not receiving an offer from the Sooners.

And though the play seems to be set in a distant time and place, the story mirrors the poverty, racism and strife af- flicting the world today. From Oct. 5-16, the De- partment of Theatre and Dance will perform the play “In the Red and Brown Wa- ter.” The show, based in Loui- siana, features a predomi- nantly African-American cast and stars acting senior Christian Henley as Oya, a young track star who must cope with her mother’s death and the end of her track ca- reer. Theatre and African studies senior Oktavea Wil- liams, plays Oya’s foil, Nia. “This show is our pro- test,” Williams said. “It’s our gift for the 4 percent of black students who may be the only black kids in class, who don’t have a chance to see themselves in the media or on campus. This is our gift to those who are being displaced and pushed out of their homes right now. The biggest goal we could ever achieve is making sure that folks are able to see them- selves in the work that we put out.” The racism that exists in the play is subtle. Overtly racist comments are absent from the performance, but white men hold the only two positions of power. One controls the only store men- tioned in the play. The other holds the key to Oya’s future in running track. “That’s the only commen- tary you get on that subject,” Henley said. “It’s just, ‘Oh these people have this,’ and you don’t think anything about it. But it’s there be- cause in the context of today, that’s relevant. That’s why the show is based in the ‘distant present’ because it doesn’t have to be anything related to this exact moment, but it is.” Playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney’s writing in the play reflects authentic Loui- siana culture. All of the char- acters narrate their actions aloud, use a Louisiana dialect and speak in a poetic rhyme similar to Shakespearean language. Co-director Rob- ert Ramirez said the show also fused language, gesture and movement to add to the performance. “I can’t look at or hear ‘In the Red and Brown Wa- ter’ as just a play,” Ramirez said. “I look at it as a rit- ual, an experience and an illuminating journey.” Williams said she audi- tioned for the play because she wanted to show the audi- ence what life is really like for minorities. “This is the type of work that I want to continue do- ing,” Williams said. “This is the type of work that feeds my soul: art that has pur- pose, means something and is reflective of real things that are happening in society.” In addition to highlighting racial inequality, the show also demonstrates how life in the projects tears at the sanity of its residents. Oya forgoes her chance to attend college to stay with her ill mother, and eventually faces infertility as she tries to start a family. But at the same time, through it all, her neigh- bors support her fight through misery instead of letting it absorb her. Henley said that people will be able to feel the sense of community that comes through a group of people experiencing the same suffering. “You feel for Oya be- cause you see that’s she’s trying to live, but life is just throwing its little sprinkles on her,” Hen- ley said. “I think the hard part is finding where she is happy, finding where her life isn’t just about all the sad things. Because it’s not. Those things inform the decisions that she makes, but they don’t inform that she’s still herself as this girl who loves to run.” On a late-October eve- ning, a noise coming from the hallways in Parlin Hall’s basement brought profes- sors Thomas Garza and Elizabeth Richmond-Garza out from their adjacent of- fices and together for the first time. They were new hires. Garza had been working in the state department in D.C. and Richmond-Gar- za had just moved from New York and was finish- ing her dissertation in comparative literature. “We both ended up in the exile offices with all the people who weren’t impor- tant yet,” said Garza, now an associate professor in the department of Slavic and Eurasian studies. But he had taken notice of the “cool” professor across the hall and hoped for an opportunity to speak to her. One night, when Garza stayed late to grade papers, his opportunity came when he heard a sound outside his office. That sound, Garza discov- ered, was the beating wings of Mexican free-tailed bats. They had gotten into the ceiling from an unsealed vent and turned the space into a home similar to the one underneath the Con- gress Avenue Bridge. “I see Elizabeth in her office and my brain im- mediately goes in to male mode,” Thomas said. “I was thinking: she’s going to walk out, freak out and I’m going to be the one to tell her not to worry, that these are just little Mexican free-tails.” His attempts at chivalry were foiled when Rich- mond-Garza proclaimed, “I love bats!” But he wasn’t discouraged. “A woman who loves bats,” he said. “I knew I had to go out with her.” After their initial meet- ing, Garza said the relation- ship developed quickly. The two are now married, have two black cats and enjoy watching the bats from top- floor restaurants in build- ings downtown. Garza said they take advantage of simple plea- sures like this when they’re in Austin, but when they travel to Europe for their research, the tone of their interactions shifts to one of academic exchange. As Garza does a sociocul- tural analysis of the habits of young people in Russia under Putin’s leadership, for example, Richmond- Garza seeks to understand themes in the country’s art and literature. Because of these differ- ent approaches, Richmond- Garza said they offer each other honest, constructive feedback that helps their professional pursuits. “Our differences make us the best edi- tors for each other,” said Richmond-Garza. The noticeable differ- ences between the two fade away when they talk to each other. Each completes the others’ thoughts and their respective dialogue flows seamlessly. Garza grew up in south Texas near the Mexican Border, and was part of his family’s first generation to pursue high education. Richmond-Garza was the daughter of two professors; she grew up moving be- tween countries, following her parents’ work. “You look at it one way and think that there’s no overlap. And then you look at it from another angle and it’s like, actually at such a deep level, there is,” Rich- mond-Garza said. “He grew up on the bor- der, I grew up with two passports. We both had par- ents who said that education is the way to get somewhere that matters.” Richmond-Garza said these deeper similarities are the ones that really matter because they laid the foun- dation for the values that she and Garza share. “You look for deep struc- ture of what matters to you, in terms of values, that can be similar,” said Richmond- Garza. “If this deep struc- ture stuff is off and you haven’t found a way to make it harmonious, then you end up being in conflict and most of the other things are really just superficial.” Name: 5049/House Ads-TSM - Director’s; Width: 29p6; Depth: 10 in; Color: Process color, 5049/House Ads-TSM - Director’s; Ad Number: 50498 L&AGRADUATESCHOOL FAIR20162016 GRADUATESCHOOL FAIRTuesday, October 11, 10 AM - 2 PMTexas Union BallroomThe University of Texas at AustinTHE POSSIBILITIESMASTER ANDMeet representatives from over 100 graduate programs around the country! www.graduatesoftexas.comPickup your copy of Master the Possiblites on Monday, October 10th in The Daily Texan and learn more about the event and other graduate programs.
