System spokeswoman Jenny LaCoste-Caputo said the TPAC information has not been sent out yet because of the upcoming change in leadership within the System. Retired Navy Adm. William McRaven is set to become the next System chancellor in Janu- ary, succeeding Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa. “Chancellor Cigarroa did not want to presuppose what course of action Adm. McRaven may want to take on tuition,” LaCoste-Caputo said in an email. UT spokeswoman Maria Arrellaga said the University has taken no action to form TPAC because it is waiting for direction from the Sys- tem to proceed. According to the Univer- sity, TPAC’s main purpose is to make recommenda- tions to President William Powers Jr. about the amount of tuition needed to fund UT’s forecasted academic core budget, which includes faculty salary and utility ex- penses. he committee also recommends graduate and undergraduate tuition rates for all University colleges, the School of excluding Law, McCombs School of Business and the College of Pharmacy, as those rates are set in consultation with the Oice of the Executive Vice President and Provost, rath- er than TPAC. Ater making any neces- sary changes to the tuition proposal, the president sub- mits it to the Board of Re- gents for inal approval at its May meeting.

The majority of the de- fense’s success came as a result of its stellar pass rush, which recorded sev- en sacks and spent a good part of the night in the Cowboys’ backfield, mak- ing it tough for quarter- back Daxx Garman to get anything going. No one player was par- ticularly for the defense, but the entire unit played well, limiting dominant mistakes and coming up with big plays all game long.

Swann observed the fu- sion of groups by studying how and why rebels joined and stayed with groups, us- ing their extreme pro-group behavior to predict wheth- er they had an impact on radicalization. As they looked at whether the rebels would side with their battalion or their fam- ily, Swann predicted that rebels would choose their families.

At the meeting, the students discussed the possibility of a transfer student services oice, an extended trans- fer student orientation and the tracking of transfer stu- dents. Students also spoke about their personal experi- ences and concerns. Committee co-chair Co- rey Hayford said transfer students lack these resources on campus. “When you’re talking about a population that is that large, and for them not to have the resources offered to other students, I think that’s a key issue that needs to be addressed,” said Hayford, who trans- ferred to UT from St. Ed- ward’s University. The committee is di- vided up into subcommit- tees for CAP and PACE, external transfers and in- ternal transfers. The com- mittees will submit pro- posals that will then be examined and potentially implemented. each like group to do their own TRANSFER page 2 “We’d for Catherine Zinser, tour guide and Landmarks docent, explains the history of Tony Smith’s “Amaryllis” to bike tour partici- pants. “Amaryl- lis” is just one of many art pieces around campus featured on the bike tour.

TRANSFER continues from page 1 research and have a pro- posal set up by April, so we can thoroughly do the research we need to do,” Hayford said. When the new Senate ses- sion starts, Hayford said he hopes the committee will be- come its own Senate agency, a group that reports to Sen- ate but operates somewhat independently. George Bennett, a com- puter science junior who is not a member of Senate, said he joined the commit- tee because he thinks trans- fer students lack the same resources as freshman and don’t get basic informa- tion, such as how to regis- ter for classes, explained in enough detail. “Personally, I had a lot of negative experiences with orientation and things like that — that they kind of walk freshmen through but that they don’t really do that for transfer students,” Bennett said. One of the topics the committee discussed is transfer credit. Hayford said many students lose credit because the Univer- sity does not make it clear to transfer students what courses do not transfer from outside institutions. “My experience hasn’t re- ally been that bad because I’m going to graduate in the summer, so just a little over four years [without] losing a lot of credit,” Hay- ford said. “But I have been around a lot of students who have had a bad experi- ence and who have not had the proper resources.” Hayford said the biggest problem for internal transfer students is the lack of access to restricted classes required for a given major. “The major issue with in- ternal transfers is that the applications for the inter- nal transfer process are not read until June and you pick classes in April,” Hayford said. “If you’re not in that Corey Hayford and Nick Sajatovic serve as co-chairs on the Senate of College Councils Trans- fer Student Ad-Hoc Committee, which is working to address transfer student issues.

The feature allows stu- dents to post photos or videos on a regular feed that can be viewed by other users on or around campus for up to 24 hours. Snap- chat originally announced that the launch of the fea- ture at the University was temporary and would be brought back eventually. “We’re going to visit a few other schools but hope to be back,” Snapchat said in an October email. “We hope you loved it.” Along with UT, the fea- ture was also available at the University of Southern California, Pennsylvania State University and the University of California- Los Angeles campuses since its launch in October. Mike Horn, UT’s direc- tor of digital strategy, said he didn’t quite understand why it had been taken down in the first place. “All I can assume is that they are testing the ser- vice out like it’s a beta pro- gram, and so we should ex- pect it to be inconsistent,” Horn said. Along with bringing back the feature at the test TPAC continues from page 1 student leaders and faculty members — because the System delayed the request for a tuition proposal re- lecting student input. An ad hoc committee was formed in its place, consist- ing of three student leaders. When the System asked the committee to revise its pro- posal in the spring semes- ter, the committee was later expanded to include seven students. Both times, the System gave the committee a shorter deadline to turn in a proposal in comparison to previous years. Although the board usu- ally approves University tuition rates for two years, the regents decided to not increase undergraduate in- state tuition for one year at the urging of Gov. Rick Perry. The regents did in- crease out-of-state under- graduate tuition by 2.6 percent — but also for only one year. Geetika Jerath, Senate of College Councils president, and Student Government President Kori Rady have both told he Daily Texan they have not been contact- ed by University administra- tors or the UT System about TPAC. Currently, the Senate has its college tuition and budget advisory committees look- ing at other areas of the stu- dent budget.

Oten I am dismissed as the “sorority girl” trying to vocalize an “obviously uneducated posi- tion” or as the “overly political girl” trying to “play Elle Woods”. additionally obvious that these categorizations undermine woman and their ability to express themselves. Many women are not represented by the categories of women deemed acceptable by popular media because of their appearance, women’s work is devalued by people attempting to place them into more comfortable categories and some women’s inability to placed into obvious molds causes rejection from any mold. herefore, I ask you to consider which categories you place women in and to make a conscious efort to see them as more than shapes to be it into holes. Dimitrof is a government and history junior It is obvious that women are categorized. It is from Houston. Jessica Lin | Daily Texan Staff GALLERY By Kallen Dimitroff Guest Columnist People are naturally prone to making judg- ments and categorizations. It is the way we make sense of the world. As children, we put cubes in the square-shaped holes and spheres in the circu- lar holes. Making judgements about what things should be like and where they should go is a fun- damental part of human nature. Unfortunately, as we grow we begin to make judgements about more than simple blocks. We begin to judge people. We do this to make sense of their actions and behaviors. We then deine our- selves in comparison to our judgements of others. In the case of women, we make detrimental judgements. Women in all levels of society are grouped into comfortable categories. he loving mother, the bitchy politician, the ditzy valley girl or the butch athlete. he list of generalizations goes on. However, unlike the geometric blocks, women should not be so easily grouped. heir routine categorization is demeaning not only to individual women but to the way society per- ceives women. Some may argue that there is no issue with put- ting women into simple groups, or that they’re not placed into any categories at all. However, the way women are portrayed by popular media, the routined belittlement of their work and my own personal experiences lead me to believe that this categorization is not only happening, but is se- verely detrimental to women and their ability to express themselves. In the case of popular media, the categorization is both evident and destructive. Television, movies and advertisements oten display the “ideal wom- an.” She is beautiful, she is young and she is dei- nitely not fat. On the most supericial level we are shown an ideal of what a woman should be. If a woman is not these things, she is not meeting the standard of popular media and is thereby of less worth than other women. his standard category of “pretty” deprives many women of a feeling of value or comfort in their own diferences. In additional to supericial displays of what women should be, society routinely belittles women in their ventures. For example, last year I can recall an article describing the evolution of Tina Fey’s hair styles. As Tina Fey routinely makes headlines for Emmy nominations and awards such as the Mark Twain Award for humor, people ind her transcending the typical view of women and humor. Since women are not gener- ally viewed as funny, people must focus on some- thing that places Tina Fey in a category that they are comfortable with. By discussing her hair style rather her talent for comedic writing and perfor- mance, Tina’s work is devalued, and her typical “womanly” features are examined instead. In my own experience I have found that I do not it into the easily made categories that should apply to me. Because of this, I ind that I am de- valued in both of the “categories” I split time with. Personally my conlicting categories are “sorority girl” and “politically engaged”. As a member of a Panhellenic sorority I have found people that don’t know me automatically assume that I don’t care about issues regarding student life on cam- pus. I remember speaking at a Liberal Arts Coun- cil meeting once and aterward being approached by someone (not a member of Liberal Arts Q-AND-A GALLERY Dean discusses changes in school, recruitment of males in nursing resolutions they passed that are pretty impressive. Our graduate students are a diverse group and are employed or have families. heir student or- ganization is more eclectic, but they work closely with other student organizations on campus, such as Project Collaborate out of the pharmacy school. DT: How does the nursing school collaborate with other schools on campus? Stuibergen: All the health sciences these days have expectations of inter-professional compe- tencies, so one way we encourage that is to ofer at least one joint class between Nursing and other schools every semester. With the opening of the medical school, we’re renovating our simulation lab space, and the nurs- ing school will be hosting the inter-professional educational activities for nursing, pharmacy and medicine. Otherwise, we have faculty who teach Signature Courses and many research collabora- tions with other schools. DT: Why do you think nursing programs, like the new doctorate of nursing practice, are growing in popularity? Stuibergen: here’s a constant demand for healthcare professionals, and so there’s a great need. With nurse practitioners, they are becoming more and more desirable … People like to have nurse practitioners take care of them because they get a slightly diferent kind of care. I think people are really coming to recognize the important role that nurses play. DT: How does the nursing school recruit male faculty and students? Stuibergen: hat’s always a challenge in nurs- ing. he number of male students in nursing programs around the country is pretty stable at around 5 to 10 percent. It is a greater problem in faculty recruitment, partly because that [percent- age] is a small number to recruit from, and many of them are not choosing to go into nursing educa- tion. So we actively recruit to enhance the diversity of our faculty at all times because we think it’s im- portant for our students to have faculty that relect the diversity of our student body, which is getting much better. Another program that has been get- ting better at recruiting men is our alternate-entry master’s program, because we do get men from other professions. Last year, the president of our undergraduate students’ association was male, and he did a great recruiting video that is going out to high schools around Central Texas. And so I think that sort of thing really helps recruit male students, too. DT: Is there anything else you’d like students to know? Stuibergen: I think there are fantastic oppor- tunities in nursing today to make a diference in all kinds of ways. It’s a very rewarding career for anyone to have. It’s extremely challenging, but it al- lows you the possibility to do very impactful work, to help people and to use every bit of your brain.

It has been condensed from its original form to it space requirements. he Daily Texan: You were appointed as dean in 2010. Since then, what would you say are the biggest projects you’ve undertaken and biggest successes you’ve had? Alexa Stuibergen: We’ve revised our strategic plan and taken a close look at where we were in comparison with other schools. We’ve re-empha- sized our focus … on producing leaders. Many other schools produce more nurses than we do, and they are excellent clinical practitioners, but we really expect our graduates [at all levels] to go on to signiicant leadership roles. We have made a signiicant revision of our al- ternate-entry master’s program, which allows stu- dents with at least a bachelor’s degree in another ield to come in and take the NCLEX licensing exam within, now, 12 months and then stay on and complete their master’s. We’ve also gone this year to freshman admis- sions to our school. Previously, when a high school senior applied to UT and expressed inter- est in nursing, they were admitted, in fact, to what was called pre-nursing … hey had to go through a second level of application in competition with people from other schools across the campus. So, starting with the Class of 2018, we are committed to them … hey don’t have to compete with Natu- ral Science majors. We are also pleased to announce that the Board of Regents has approved a doctorate of nursing practice for our school, but we’re still awaiting i- nal approval from the [Texas] Higher Education Coordinating Board. DT: How does the nursing school prepare its students for the leadership roles you previously mentioned? Stuibergen: From the undergraduate to the graduate levels, our students are exposed to ser- vice and leadership opportunities. Our … stu- dents are involved in many activities through their student organizations.

Lauren Ussery | Daily Texan Staff get an additional 15 prac- tices to work with the play- ers and further implement their system.

With under three minutes to play in the irst half, Okla- homa State took possession of the ball following a missed ield goal. he Longhorns rolled with a diferent line- up along the defensive line, replacing junior defensive tackle Malcom Brown with freshman defensive tackle Poona Ford and keeping se- nior defensive end Cedric Reed on the bench, as well. he diferent defensive line, which consisted of four players who will possibly return in key roles for 2015, sacked the Cowboys on con- secutive plays. On ofense, freshman wide receiver Armanti Fore- man played the best game of his young career with two critical catches. Both of Foreman’s receptions came on third downs and were Swoopes’ two longest throws of the night. he irst went for 29 yards, and it led to a Texas ield goal that gave the Longhorns a 22-0 lead. he second was a 45-yard grab in which Fore- man outran the coverage and caught the perfectly placed ball for the score.

Saturday’s trip to Oklahoma State represented the team’s best opportunity for win number six, and the Longhorns took full advan- tage, using a dominating irst-half performance to dispatch the Cowboys, 28- 7. Here are some takeaways from the game: Texas’ defense com- mands Oklahoma State entered the game averaging more than 386 yards of total of- fense per contest, but it failed to muster half of that number Saturday night. he Cowboys gained 192 yards on 52 plays and were held to 69 yards in the irst three quarters. A 61-yard touchdown drive, followed by a 54-yard drive, helped pad the stats, but the Longhorn defense clearly won the night. Texas’ defense also recorded seven sacks, moving the team’s total to 37 through 11 games.

Two Longhorns waited in Smith’s absence and cleared the shot away to stop the biggest Rice threat of the game. In the second half, the Longhorns up the heat and turned the into hard-fought match cranked a beatdown. “I think I just challenged them a little bit,” head coach Angela Kelly said. “To be honest, I just cut to the chase about this being a irst-round NCAA match. Everybody in the room was really excited.” he Longhorns added two more goals in the sec- ond 45 minutes to put Rice away and comfortably ad- vance to the second round of the tournament. Freshman forward Olivia Brook started the second-half charge in the 48th minute. Brook fought her way to the end of senior defender Whit- ney Jaynes’ long pass into the box and needed just a slight tap to redirect the ball into the net for her team-leading seventh goal of the season. Dyche then added the knockout punch with a 30- yard blast in the 66th min- ute to send Texas to College Station for its second-round matchup at 3 p.m. Friday against No. 14 Notre Dame.

It got ugly early on as Alcorn State (0-2) couldn’t score. With 6-foot-9 forward Connor Lam- mert, 6-foot-9 center Cameron Ridley and 6-foot-8 forward Jonathan Holmes patrolling the rim from the get-go, Texas held Alcorn State (0-2) scoreless for the irst 6:26, opening up a 15-0 lead in the process. “We came out focused,” Holmes said. “We knew what they wanted to do on ofense, and we helped each other out. hen we executed on O.” Texas continued the on- led by throughout, slaught sophomore point guard Isa- iah Taylor’s 12 points and the production of at least 2 points from 11 other Longhorns, con- irming what head coach Rick Barnes has been boasting about all along: his is a deep team. What stood out most to Barnes, however, was the lu- idity of the ofense. “We took 32 ield goals and assisted on 24 of those,” Barnes said. “We want to play of the pass.” Despite Texas’ large lead, it started the second half slug- gish, drawing the ire of its head coach. “I didn’t like how we start- ed the second half,” Barnes said. “We were sloppy. hose guys came out and sat for By Jeremy Thomas @JeremyOBThomas Texas women’s basketball overcame a shaky start in its season opener Saturday to pull away in the second half, defeating UTSA, 68-48, in Austin.

But Texas streaked a 17-0 run over the next six min- utes to gain a 16-point halftime lead. However, with a little over 10 minutes remaining in the game, UTSA cut its deicit to 3 points, as Texas shot just 26.7 percent from the ield. After Texas made six consecutive free throws, the Longhorns secured winning momentum by scoring six points in less than 25 seconds to help seal their first victory of the season. “I just didn’t think our decision-making was great for a good deal of the game,” Texas head coach SOCCER By Daniel Clay @dclay567 Texas soccer overcame frigid conditions Friday to knock of the Rice Owls, 3-0, in Austin and win its irst NCAA tournament contest since 2011. he two teams traded pos- sessions throughout the irst half, but junior midielder Sharis Lachappelle got the scoring started.

We aren’t going to waste our minutes.” Although the Myles Turn- er Show debuted quickly in the season opener, it took the freshman forward a little longer to get going in his sec- ond game. He picked up two early fouls, limiting him to just three irst-half minutes. But in the second half, he brought the crowd to its feet. He ended with 10 points, seven rebounds and, most importantly, six blocks. “He was frustrated he had to sit in the irst half,” Barnes said. “He’ll get better each game.” he steamrolling of Alcorn State was the follow-up Texas wanted ater looking impres- sive in the opener against North Dakota State on Fri- day night. Behind Taylor’s 18 and Holmes’ and Turner’s 15, Texas toppled the Bison, 85-50, in front of more than 11,000 fans — the largest opening-night crowd Barnes can recall in his 17 years. “If I had to pick an MVP, it’s the fans,” Barnes said Fri- day night. Coming into this season, one of the biggest question marks for Barnes’ team was whether the team could shoot. All preseason, they maintained that they could and that they looked forward to proving the doubters wrong. hey’ve done just that in their irst two games, shooting 40 percent from downtown in the opening weekend, with eight diferent players knock- ing down at least one 3-pointer. “A lot of teams don’t think we can shoot,” Taylor said. “But a lot of us can shoot. We got shooters out there, which makes it even harder to defend us.” Texas’ next test will be a lot tougher as it travels to Madi- son Square Garden to take on Iowa and either No. 23 Syracuse or California. “It’s a whole new ball game when we go to New York,” Barnes said.

We are really excited to be able to win that cham- pionship and add another year to our banner.” he win wasn’t easy, though, as the Sooners gave Texas trouble throughout the night. In the opening set, the Sooners took a 10-7 lead early, but the Longhorns tied the score four times ater that. Oklahoma wouldn’t be denied, and the Sooners won the irst set, 25-22.

Joshua Guerra | Daily Texan Staff Karen Aston said. “We went on a run in the sec- ond half that was mostly in part to just going to a smaller lineup and giving them a different look from a pressing perspective and maybe from an energy- level perspective.” Aston also said her team wanted to score too quickly. “We were running over people, and we just got into a too big of a hurry,” Aston said. “I’m disappointed in the fact that we have been talking about that and then we get into the game not re- ally thinking.” Sophomore guard Brian- na Taylor led the team with dominant stats. She played 23 minutes and ended the game with 11 points, six re- bounds and two assists. Texas ended the game with 25 team fouls and 23 turnovers. Sophomore center Kelsey Lang said she needs to learn how to play with multiple fouls to help her team. “I hope that, with ex- perience, that will come — being smart and not go- ing for blocks that I can’t OPENER page 5 When Sharis scored, we were like, ‘Okay, we need to settle down.

Texas’ women did not advance, but their top runners — redshirt freshman Katie Ruhala and sophomore Sandie Raines — ran well, sug- gesting potential in the program’s future. “I thought we all went out and raced our hearts out, and that’s all that matters,” Ruhala said. “We fell short a little bit as a team, but I think we really pulled it together from the beginning of the season. I know we’re all a little disappointed, but I think in the years to come, we’re not los- ing anyone, and I think there are good things to come. I think it re- ally sets it up for a good foundation.” Ruhala inished 19th and Raines came in close in 25th. Both behind women made the all-re- gion team.

Now, in addition to being a full-time student, Kim appears in Nei- man Marcus catalogs, Korean Harper’s Bazaar and a number of other publications. Kim got into modeling at 14 ater being prompted by her parents to enter a Kim Dawson model search at NorthPark Center in Dallas. Kim was hesitant, at irst, to join the world of modeling because, until that point, she had mostly seen models de- picted in the media as catty and snobby. “A solid 99.99 percent are none of those things,” Kim said. “hey’re just normal girls who happen to be very tall and thin, who are trying to make it in this world just like the rest of us.” in Ater getting signed Dallas, Kim did mostly com- mercial work, modeling for catalogs such as JCPenney’s. It wasn’t until her family took a trip to South Korea when she was 18 that Kim got her irst peek into the world of high-fashion modeling. “I went to Korea on a fam- ily vacation, [and] my mom found an agency there,” Kim said. “hey liked me enough, so we negotiated a deal where I would spend all my sum- mers in college in Korea, and I would study abroad in Korea.” Many of her most memo- rable photo shoots have oc- curred during her vacation time, such as her irst shoot for Vogue Korea. “I was super sick, and, at one point, I had to balance on a rock with high heels,” Kim said. “People were tiptoeing on the rocks around me to touch up my hair and make- up, and they were like, ‘hese rocks are really unstable. How are you doing this?’” Kim’s boyfriend, radio- television-ilm senior Na- than Waters, said Kim’s academic drive is even more impressive than her success in modeling. “Modeling is just another piece of the pie,” Waters said. “It’s cool to me that she mod- els, but it’s even cooler to me that she’s really smart, driven and hardworking.” Early on, Kim decided that modeling is not her ultimate career goal. “I had to do these inter- views with all the top agen- cies, and they all asked, ‘Where do you see yourself in ive years?’” Kim said. “I said, ‘I see myself graduating By Jackie Wang @jcqlnwng yoga Patton Traditional class soundtracks don’t include art- ists such as Cradle of Filth or Pallbearer in their playlists, but Amy Patton uses them in hers. started teaching black yoga at Eastside Yoga ater getting certiied as an instructor.

She teaches beginner yoga set to songs she picks out to match her class, she said. “he people that come to my class are usually the people who would never walk into a yoga studio,” Patton said. “I have a lot of people in the tattoo com- munity, in the service industry, in the roller derby hard-core scene. It’s still traditional yoga — body, mind [and] breath. I just changed the music.” Patton plans on teaching additional black yoga classes at he North Door night- club, where she works as a bar manager. “I didn’t know how big this class was going to be,” Patton said. “My irst class, there were 50 people that showed up. I had to pack the room. [Steven Ross], who owns Eastside, came to the irst class, and he’s never seen so many people in a class before. He called me a yoga legend.” Patton will teach black yoga at 6 p.m. Monday evening at he North Door to promote EyeHateGod, a New Orleans metal band that will have a show at the venue Wednesday. Bass player Gary Mader said he has not tried yoga. “I meditate, but I don’t know anything about yoga at all,” Mader said. “I’ve always had a quartz skull that I carry around with me. To me, the quartz is almost like an auxil- iary for memory.” Patton said she wants to introduce yoga to people who may not have thought such trying yoga, about as Mader. “Having a dark class is helpful because if you go to gyms, you have mirrors and windows everywhere,” Patton said. “his is a very intimate classroom setting. Sometimes I do partner exercises in class to heighten the experience of yoga. hat’s one thing that draws me into yoga — the community aspect of it.” Adam Allmon, he North Door’s general manager, said Patton has helped turn peo- ple’s lives around because of how she brings together yoga and metal. “It’s not so much a com- mon element as bringing two things that vibe well together that don’t match in other as- pects of life,” Allmon said. “Whether you practice medi- tation or not, something about her class leaves every- one in a trance.” Black Yoga instructor Amy Patton teaches a nontraditional yoga class that uses metal and darkness for meditation.

She felt the need to learn how to manage the money she was making through modeling. “I didn’t just want to stick it in a savings account or try to live paycheck to pay- check,” Kim said. Ater spending more than seven years as a model, Kim will soon have a more behind- the-scenes role in the fashion industry. Next October, she plans to start a full-time job in fashion merchandising for Saks Fith Avenue. Excited about starting a career that in- cludes both fashion and math, Kim doesn’t plan on model- ing for much longer. “I just kind of plan to [keep modeling] until I have to move up to New York,” Kim said. “Although, if I were asked to do a shoot, I would be happy to do it.” OFFBEAT ART Instructor mixes heavy metal music with yoga Local artist makes a living by glassblowing By Kate Dannenmaier @kjdannen Students frequenting the 26th Street food truck complex may have noticed that not all of the vendors ofer late-night noodles or pizza. In one truck, he Glass Smith, Billy Marsden spends most nights selling his pipes, pendants and oth- er glass art pieces. On a typical day, Marsden oten makes new art pieces, taking about 15 minutes to make a small pipe or pendant, which sell for about $20. “I love that I have the ability to make my money all by myself from start to inish,” Marsden said. “I buy the glass; I buy raw materi- als and go all the way from product manufacturing to the selling of the product.” Marsden has been glass- blowing for four years. He began by taking a class at Glass Monkey, a local glass- blower’s studio. “I wasn’t doing much with my life. I was looking at classes on Craigslist, and [Glass Monkey] had posted there, so I took the class,” Marsden said. According to both Mars- den and Ethan hayer, the promotions manager at BC Smoke Shop, Austin rivals cities such as Denver and ART Marshall Tidrick | Daily Texan Staff Billy Marsden begins glassblowing by cutting a large glass tube, which he uses for all of his work.

Texan art- ists make 40 percent of the glass pieces shown and sold at BC Smoke Shop. “It’s awesome. I get to look at this stuf every day,” hayer said. “It’s a beautiful thing, this whole degenerate art scene.” Glassblown pieces can look shiny or matte, clear or opaque and include bits of any color, depending on which materials are added during the glassblowing process. “I’m just adding glass us- ing a rod to the base of the form,” Marsden said. “And I heat it up really hot, so it cooks all in together. You know how watercolors bleed together? he glass doesn’t bleed together.” Marsden needs a blow- torch, oxygen, propane and a kiln in order to make his products.
