Stephen Hadley, former security adviser, national said although there has been skepticism about the success of the intelligence commit- tee and the National Security Council, they have been very efective. “We are better and safer at this business,” Hadley said. “And what has made us better is that when we have a crisis, we see it as an opportunity to take advantage of all of our work and seize the moment by taking thoughts and deci- sions and turning them into reality and change.” In his talk on Congress’ role in counterterrorism, U.S. Rep.

Harkins said he has al- ready spoken with some parents of University stu- dents with general concerns about the virus, and he an- ticipates there will be more calls. He said the Univer- sity has an infectious disease plan that is revisited every year in case of a pandemic. “We visited it back in July, speciically to look at what were doing in the event that we did have an Ebola out- break,” Harkins said. “We feel that we’re about as ready as we can be to try and ward of any of the bad infections.” At a separate press confer- ence Friday, Gov. Rick Perry called for a ban on travel from countries afected by Ebola.

According to Adcock, the median salary for the de- partment, $41,352, is below the standard for similar jobs. However, employees do have benefits, such as the option to work four 10- hour days and the prestige of working at UT, Adcock said. Despite the need for more workers, he said the department is still doing its job well. “We feel a lot of frustra- tion at times because we feel we don’t have enough people and enough money to do it the way the Univer- sity really deserves,” Adcock said. “But we do feel like we do the best we can with what we have.” Crawford said students shouldn’t even notice when facilities workers are doing their job well because mak- ing the campus comfortable is their job. “If the students can just go in and out of the buildings, be comfortable in the audi- toriums, classrooms and all that, then everything’s work- ing, and we’re doing good,” Crawford said. important duties was choosing our leaders.” Nyberg, who completed her doctorate in 1998, has participated in two missions and logged more than 75 mil- lion miles in space as a NASA astronaut. “When I came to UT, I started as a graduate student,” Nyberg said. “It is because of the people I met and the op- portunities I was given that I was able to accomplish my dreams.” his year’s recipients joined a long list of well- including known alumni, Walter Cronkite, Lady Bird Johnson, Ben Crenshaw, Michael Dell and Adm.

Stu- dents make up a signiicant portion of the dis- trict, so their representative should make a point to address students’ issues and views. Councilman Chris Riley is more engaged with students when compared to councilwoman Kathie Tovo — his main opponent — and Erin McGann, who has never been a council member. Riley’s work with students throughout the coun- cil’s process of legalizing transportation network companies, such as Uber and Lyt, demonstrates that he actually cares what students have to say, and he understands that students’ transporta- tion needs difer from other Austinites. Given how abysmally low the student voter turnout is, COLUMN Q-AND-A State should deine goals for statewide border initiatives By Breanne Deppisch Daily Texan Columnist @b_deppy This summer, Texans watched as Gov. Rick Perry ordered a controversial surge of additional troops to the Texas-Mexico border. Crafted in an attempt to solidify the porous border between the two coun- tries, this $30 million border surge was staggering in both its size and its scope — but it was certainly not the first of its kind. Perry ordered a similar plan of ac- tion in 2008, when related hold-ups in Washington led a frustrated governor to act independently. These border surges are costly, far-reaching and dangerous. So as history repeats itself, and Texas acts in spite of, a federal government paralyzed by partisan gridlock, we must ask our- selves: How effective are these controver- sial border surges? It’s difficult to measure success or fail- ure of these attempts to curb illegal immi- gration along the border, likely because a clear metric does not exist. Instead, the state is forced to measure results retro- actively: Examining reduction of crimes thought to be a result of this illegal move- ment, such as human trafficking, smug- gling and kidnappings. It’s a measure of effects, not causes, thus the result of the surge will be a hazy picture at best. And when we lack a formal definition of the problem we are trying to eradicate, po- tential of “success” takes on a slippery and immeasurable form. “Why is there not a goal here?” asked Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C. “Or am I just naive?” Certainly, these surges have done well to curb levels of drug trafficking, and mitigate isolated problems. But whether any substantial underlying restoration has taken shape is yet to be determined. And until then, it is a complex and costly venture to redress. In addition to Texas’s notable expenditure, the federal gov- ernment has spent a whopping $3.5 bil- lion on the border in 2014 — more than double the amount of previous decades. Experts say the spike can be attributed to changing innovations of smuggling activ- ity. Perry certainly trumpeted the suc- cesses of his 2008 endeavor, boasting the “plunging crime rates” and preventative measures for criminal activity across the board. But his efforts have since been highly contested. His research team failed to utilize a uniform crime rate, or account for urban areas with higher retention of border residents. And again, the question of metrics comes into play. Can we de- clare victory when drug seizures increase, citing a more effective and readily avail- able law enforcement, or is our aim to ul- timately reduce the numbers, ostensibly predicating a drop in drug trafficking? Texas officials are unable to agree — and often use the vague “unknowableness” of this data to propagate party agenda or po- litical goals. By failing to define clear goals for state- wide border initiatives, the possibility of partisan accountability is lost. Politicians can spin these border issues however they please — and as a result, they reduce the pressing nature of a national crisis to an- other frustrating cog in the political ma- chine. Deppisch is a government senior from League City. ONLINE Our commentary doesn’t stop on the page. For more of our thoughts on the issues of the day, check out our blog, A Matter of Opinion, at dailytexanonline.com. Riley’s motivation couldn’t have been solely to secure students’ votes. Riley is also working with both the Interfra- ternity Council and Student Government to re- vise the city’s sound ordinance. With a promise by the city to increase enforcement of sound re- strictions, as well as a new process the city put in place that requires a group to apply for permits at least 21 days before an event and submit a spe- ciic site plan, West Campus parties and events such as Round-Up could decrease dramatically. Granted, fewer fraternity parties wouldn’t exactly be the end of the world, but Riley’s attempts to mitigate this conlict shows that his priorities are to establish a consensus between West Campus students and nearby residents. Tovo’s campus involvement, on the other hand, is less concrete. Simply being an alum of the University as well as a former instructor doesn’t say anything about how she’ll represent students, and although she said she is involved with campus programs including he Project and the UT Opportunity Forum, her presence on campus hasn’t had an impact on students like Riley’s has. She hasn’t done much recently to concretely address student speciic student issues, such as promoting economic growth or working to increase students’ access to the coun- cil, so we see no reason why that would change if she is elected. She may be a good candidate for a diferent district, but not for ours. he District 9 council member must foster strong communication with students. Riley is the only council member who currently holds weekly oice hours, and he said he plans to hold oice hours near campus if he is elected. his il- lustrates that he values the student population of District 9, as opposed to Tovo, who doesn’t mention students anywhere on her website, and barely mentioned them in an Oct. 7 interview with the editorial board even ater we asked her speciically about the student population. When compared to Tovo’s, Riley’s website is further proof of his initiative to communicate with the student population. His website is far more in- formative and accessible than Tovo’s, and while that in itself deinitely doesn’t merit our endorse- ment, it further demonstrates his ability to ad- equately communicate with the young student population online, which is one of the most im- portant communication platforms for reaching young adults. Aside from Tovo’s lack of strong connections with students, she also has infeasible ideas for Austin’s future. Her preservationist views of Aus- tin are nice and cozy but woefully unrealistic. Ri- ley embraces Austin’s rapid growth, while Tovo wants to suppress it. Her focus on preserving Austin’s history is great for a city that wants to be a museum district with no economic growth, but impractical for pretty much any other purpose. Not every student who graduates will want to move to a diferent city to ind a job, so we need councilmembers who will accommodate and fa- cilitate responsible growth in Austin’s population rather than push against something that’s inevi- table. Riley is the person to do this. His forward- thinking visions and plans for Austin combined with his accessibility to students show that he is the best candidate to represent District 9. Dean discusses UGS’ importance Jonathan Garza | Daily Texan Staff he Daily Texan: How would you deine UGS? Brent Iverson: here are a number of ways to come at this. For example, last night I was at an event with a bunch of adults. I do this a lot; I al- ways ask the same question when we’re talking about UGS: I ask the adults to raise their hands if they’re doing now what they went to college to do. You don’t go to school to be a dean. I usu- ally get maybe 10 percent of the adults raise their hands. It’s in fact the rule, not the exception, that you need to ind your way a little bit. So what I re- ally like about UGS is if you really do know what you want to do, no one slows you down. You can declare a major, you get that major, you go, and everything’s ine. If you don’t really know what you want to do, you have an option. It’s the only place that raises the fact that you might not know what you want to do. I think that having the best of both worlds is the ideal situation. I think it’s a useful model for the universities, because usually it’s one or the other. You can’t declare a major, or you have to declare a major. his idea of being able to do either of those is, I think, a really good idea. DT: How does UGS prepare its students for the time when they’ll have to choose a major? Iverson: It’s individual, so it all depends on who it is. here’s no one size, nor should there be. It’s based on detailed interactions with not only course advisors, but also career counsel … UT- Austin has a hundred diferent majors to choose from, and there are a lot of diferent ways to get to the same place. DT: How did your chemistry background pre- pare you to be the dean of UGS? Iverson: I don’t think that is the right question. I think “Why am I prepared for this position?” is the right question. And there are three things that are important. Studying chemistry was not one. But it is in the context of teaching very large organic chemistry classes to a very diverse group of students, diverse in every sense of that word: diferent majors, diferent backgrounds, going diferent places. In the chemistry department we refer to it as service teaching, but that in general we’re not teaching to the chemistry majors; we’re teaching to all the other diferent majors that re- quire chemistry. So I was very used to interacting with a very large number of students from a wide variety of places, and that was kind of a natural part of my teaching. he most important reason I think I’m prepared to be the dean of Undergrad- uate Studies is because I’ve had three kids who’ve gone through UT. So it actually isn’t my profes- sional experience; it’s my experience as a father. It’s very diferent to experience the University from my oice and the classroom than it is from the dinner table. [My kids] didn’t live at home, but we certainly knew what was going on. So the things that a student confronts, all the things that you’ve had to navigate, I now understand, which I didn’t before … I’ve seen this from multiple points of view, and your experience is not what faculty think your experience is. It’s very difer- ent, because you now get the entirety of a person, and as a faculty member we have a domain that’s our domain and we understand that, but we don’t understand what you do when you leave our do- main. hat’s what you pick up real quick when you’re a parent. DT: All faculty were once students, so where do you think this misunderstanding comes from? Iverson: hings change, so it’s a new experi- ence, everything about your experience in the University, your plans, what you’re thinking about doing. Most of the jobs that you’re thinking about weren’t even created when I was in college. hat’s the easiest way to say it. hings just change, and our country, our civilization, has seen un- precedented change … I was on the task force that helped create the school. So I went through the process of understanding where it was com- ing from, what we were trying to accomplish from that point of view, and that’s critical because I didn’t walk in not knowing what the long-term mission was ... I will say, there is [an] ingredient that’s not a matter of preparation, but that I fun- damentally believe in the mission of what we’re doing. I think we’re at the forefront of change in all of higher education. I think UT is way ahead of its time. And the reason that no one knows what UGS is — they don’t know how to put it in a category — is because we are way ahead of our time, and that’s something I’m very excited about.

Texas stood up to Iowa State 48-45 in a last-minute thriller at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memo- rial Stadium for its second Big 12 win of the season. “More than anything, I think it’s an overall attitude,” head coach Charlie Strong said. “Just this overall attitude is going to be great [for us].” Following a career game against Oklahoma, sophomore quarterback Tyrone Swoopes claimed his irst come-from- behind victory as a Texas starter. Swoopes led his team on two late scoring drives that propelled Texas to 17 fourth- quarter points. “You can [tell] he’s grown up and he has to step up and make plays, and he’s going to do that,” senior wide receiver John Harris said. Swoopes inished the game with 416 yards of total ofense, including a career-best 95 yards on the ground. He delivered a 39-yard pass on the game- winning drive to senior wide receiver Jaxon Shipley followed by a 29-yard pass to Harris.

Brown ended the 1963 season with 1,863 yards, a single-season record. SPORTS BRIEFLY Cross country com- petes in Pre-National Invitational At the Pre-National In- vitational in Terre Haute, Indiana, on Saturday, Texas’ cross-country men inished seventh among nine na- tionally ranked teams, but the women’s team strug- gled to run as a unit and inished 33rd. All-American senior Craig Lutz led the men, in- ishing at 17th, followed by senior Mark Pinales at 25th. Assistant coach Brad Herbster said the difer- ence between a good inish and a great one lies in the hands (or shoes) of the 3-4- 5 runners. “Seventh … isn’t what we were looking for at this race,” Herbster said. “We’ve got to get our 3-4-5 up there because, with a diference in 10 seconds, you could pass 15 people. So 10 seconds here and 10 seconds there, it makes a big diference as a team score.” Redshirt freshman Ka- tie Ruhala and sophomore transfer Sandie Raines led the women at 73rd and 82nd, respectively. “I thought Katie ran re- ally well today, and Sandie competed really well,” Herbster said. “We just need to run better as a group, and I think we have that group. We see it in practice.” —James Grandberry Junior placekicker Nick Rose, who had missed three ield goals already this season, kicked the game-winning ield goal from 21 yards out — the irst game-winning kick of his career. the he Longhorns and Cy- clones entered fourth quarter tied at 31-31 before the Longhorns pulled ahead 45- 38 when senior running back Malcolm Brown plunged into the end zone with 1:19 let to play in the game. However, the Cyclones answered with a 75- yard scoring drive, aided by a 15-yard Texas face mask penal- ty to move the ball to midield. Texas’ ofense carried the game, as the defense allowed a season-high 524 yards to an Iowa State ofense ranked No. 101 in total ofense per game. “Tonight, they weren’t on, and we were,” Swoopes said of the defense. “he roles were kind of reversed, but that’s kind of what we got to do. When one team is not playing well, one team has got to pick it up and play. So that’s all we did.” Although the Longhorns’ defense failed to produce the same strength it has seen in the past few weeks, sopho- more defensive back Dylan is a former Haines, who walk-on, tallied his irst ca- reer touchdown on a pick-six. Haines’ 74-yard interception return touchdown raised the Longhorns to 28-21 with 4:02 let before haltime. “It was just man-to-man touchdowns, coverage,” Haines said of the play. “My dude motioned, and I carried him. And I kind of an- ticipated the route, so I jumped in front of him and made a play.” Texas allowed three irst- half including a 5-yard run by Iowa State quarterback Sam Richardson to tie the game up at 28-28 in the waning seconds before the break. Before this game, the de- fense had allowed no irst-half touchdowns in the team’s irst six contests. Defensive struggles erase consistency By Stefan Scraield @stefanscraield he Texas defense gave a ranked UCLA team its, stiled Baylor’s top-ranked ofense and virtually slammed the door on then-No. 11 Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl. But just when Longhorn fans thought defensive coor- dinator Vance Bedford’s unit might be one of the best in the country, Iowa State, a peren- nial cellar dweller in the Big 12, came to Austin and hung 45 points on Texas. “We missed a few tackles, missed a few assignments,” sophomore defensive back Dylan Haines said. “We are just going to look back at it and try to get all of those things cor- rected. But I think we are ob- viously a lot better defensively than we played tonight.” Given how well the defense played against tougher com- petition, Haines’ claim may be accurate. It’s also tough to be much worse than they were Saturday night. he Cyclones racked up 524 total yards in the contest, led by junior quarterback Sam Richardson, who threw for 345 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another score. Iowa State’s ofense, which failed to muster anything against North Dakota State of the FCS earlier this year, had 30 irst downs and averaged nearly ive yards per carry against Texas. “Not very pleased with our defense — thought we could have played better than we did,” head coach Charlie Strong said. “Sometimes you think you’re better than what you are, and defensively we know we can improve.” All season long, Texas’ de- fense has been a staple amidst mistakes on ofense and special teams. Against the Cyclones, that script was lipped. “he ofense bailed us out tonight,” senior defensive back Quandre Diggs said. “We didn’t play like we wanted to on de- fense, but the ofense stepped their game up.” As Iowa State continued to score, sophomore quarterback Tyrone Swoopes and his of- fense kept pace, turning in their most complete performance of the season. Meanwhile, the teams, Longhorns’ which has been a liability all season, won the ield position battle all evening and convert- ed both its ield goal attempts, including the game winner. special With a trip to Manhattan, Kansas, to face Kansas State — who sits atop the Big 12 Sophomore quarterback Tyrone Swoopes led a dominant of- fense to compensate for Texas’ defensive woes Saturday. Ethan Oblak | Daily Texan Staff standings — coming up this weekend, things won’t get any easier for the Texas defense. If nothing else, the poor per- formance against Iowa State was humbling, as Texas clearly understands it will have to be better against a slew of ranked teams in the last ive games of the season. “he defense needed a wake- up call,” Strong said. “Because I think our defense was feeling too good about themselves, and this will get them back down to earth.” Texas notches 14th consecutive win WEEKEND RECAP SOCCER | DANIEL CLAY he scoring struggles that have plagued Texas women’s soccer throughout the 2014 campaign struck again Friday as the Longhorns (7-6-2, 2-3- 0 Big 12) dropped a 3-1 road contest at the hands of TCU (8- 5-3, 1-2-3 Big 12). Despite the unfavorable score, the Longhorns main- tained a 27-to-11 advantage in shots over the Horned Frogs. But as has been the case recent- ly, Texas struggled to capitalize on its opportunities. Junior forward Kelsey Shim- mick and freshman forward Ol- ivia Brook both had chances on goal in the irst half, but a save by a TCU defender and a last- second delection by redshirt senior keeper Vittoria Arnold held the Longhorns scoreless through the irst 45 minutes. Junior forward Chantale Campbell’s goal in the 58th minute put the Longhorns in the scoring column, but, by that point, TCU already was sitting with a comfortable 3-1 lead, which it maintained through the rest of the game. TCU had not won a conference game before Friday. The Longhorns will take a break from Big 12 play with a home matchup against Arkansas- Little Rock at 7 p.m. Monday. The Trojans boast a surprising 11-4-1 record on the season, and though their Sun Belt Conference schedule lacks the diiculty of of a typical Big 12 schedule, Texas lacks enough consistency to enter any game comfortably. VOLLEYBALL By Nick Castillo @Nick_Castillo74 Ater a nine-day break, Texas’ outside hitters — senior Haley Eckerman, senior Khat Bell and junior Amy Neal — led the No. 2 Longhorns in a sweep of No. 25 Kansas State (25-19, 25-22, 25-12). Bell, Eckerman and Neal gave Texas 33 of its 50 kills against the Wildcats. As a team, the Longhorns aver- aged a .406 hitting percent- age for the match, their third time hitting an average of .400 or better this season. Before the game, head coach Jerritt Elliott looked forward to matching the Wildcats, who were riding a four-game winning streak entering the match. “[Kansas State] is very steady. heir numbers have been very good,” El- liott said. “hey are very well-disciplined and obvi- ously they’ve gone on a hot winning streak right now. hey’re playing at home, so it’s a tough environment, but we need to be in these envi- ronments to be tested.” Despite the challenging road environment of 3,927 Wildcat fans, the Longhorns eased their way past the Wildcats without issue, using their depth and balance to their advantage. Kansas State was able to keep the irst set Amy Zhang | Daily Texan ile photo Khat Bell, senior middle blocker and outside hitter, led the Longhorns with 12 kills in Manhattan, Kansas on Saturday. Texas downed the Wildcats 3-0, breaking their four-match winning streak. close, but Texas went on a string of runs and claimed the set, 25-19. Kansas State gave the Longhorns the most trou- ble in the second set, as the two teams battled back and forth throughout. Despite 14 ties and four diferent lead changes, Texas squeaked past the Wildcats, 25-22. With momentum on their side, the Longhorns domi- nated the third set with an 8-4 run to take a 12-5 lead.

Sophomore setter Chloe Collins led the team in assists with 23, followed by sopho- more utility player Nicole Dalton with 19. Junior mid- dle blocker Molly McCage and sophomore outside hit- ter Paulina Prieto Cerame led the Longhorns in blocks with three apiece. Freshman libero Cat McCoy recorded a team-high 10 digs. “We were as eicient as we’ve been all season,” El- liott said. “[We] played with great balance and had a great mentality.” Texas (14-0, 6-0 Big 12) returns home to play four- straight home games, start- ing with TCU (12-9, 2-5 Big 12) at 7 p.m. Wednesday, which will be televised on the Longhorn Network.

As a result, they created the video production com- pany TEMPER to document the perspectives of people in Austin. Operating as their own bosses and creat- ing their own content out of their shared apartment, Granzow, radio-television- ilm senior, and Bocanegra, St. Edward’s communication senior, are interested in ev- eryday people doing amaz- ing things. “We want to make mov- ies,” Bocanegra said. “We want to direct music videos and edit them and own all the means of production to create our speciic brand.” handles Granzow the technical sides of ilming projects, while Bocanegra specializes in the production side of planning interviews and making contacts. “I want to do all of these things, and, a lot of times, she’s the only one that I can agree with on it,” Bo- canegra said. “We jump up and down, and one person is talking and pacing around, and the other person is tak- ing all the notes down. It’s just how we work.” hey have created videos ranging from a strawberry jam how-to for a garden blog to a proile on a local poet. TEMPER also works with photography, graph- ic design, podcasts and art shows. “Our theme is to be in- clusive of various perspec- tives that aren’t harmful,” Granzow said. TEMPER’s upcoming projects include a story on the transformation of Austin and being young and impressionable in the city. The two said juggling school and various TEM- PER projects is challeng- ing, but education comes first. Once they graduate, Granzow and Bocanegra hope to expand the compa- ny, diversifying their video content and hosting more art shows. “This day and age you to be multi-plat- have formed,” Granzow said. “You have to have so many skills or going to drown.” you’re Bocanegra hosted a radio show at St. Edward’s called “he Sad Soup” and then moved it to TEMPER to be- come a podcast series. Sea- son two of the series is cur- rently in the brainstorming process. “I artists showcased and other people and had them conversations with about existential, sad, weird human gross stuff,” Bocanegra said. This past summer, the duo hosted an art show called “A Human Expe- rience: Beyoncé (an Art Show),” which prompted artists to make pieces in- spired by Beyoncé. Fu- eled by the show’s success, Granzow and Bocanegra said they have plans brew- ing for future events, such as art shows and screenings. “We’re always focusing on what is accessible to people, too,” Bocanegra said. “We don’t want people to think is some pretentious this that only does company one thing.” Social work seniors Rachel Long and Mary Jacobs counsel students at International High School as part of their field internships. Interns aid school for foreign students Graeme Hamilton | Daily Texan Staff By Lauren Velez @laurenvelz Every hursday at Inter- national High School, each staf member wears a college T-shirt. he tradition is an important one — its purpose is to encourage students to believe that they, too, can one day be accepted to college. his would be a huge accom- plishment for any student at the Austin school, as each of them has recently immigrat- ed to America. “here are two requirements [for admission],” Principal Su- san Galvan said. “he irst is that it’s [the student’s] irst time in the United States, and the second is that they don’t know any written English.” While students work to learn English and get ac- customed to a new culture, they face major challenges in their personal, academic and home lives. his is where the school’s social workers come in. Social work seniors Rachel Long and Mary Jacobs were both placed at International High School for their ield work internships. Galvan said the interns are a huge asset. “hey’re amazing,” Gal- van said. “hey give so much of themselves. hey get to know the students. hey’re at lunch duty, around cam- pus and in classrooms help- ing teachers. hey listen to their journeys and to what’s going on in their lives.” As an intern, Long said she and Jacobs complete a wide variety of tasks that difer day to day. She said most of the challenges, surprisingly, don’t come from the students but rather from school policies, such as standardized testing. “It’s hard to see how poli- cies made afect the services we provide for our students,” Long said. “hings like stan- dardized test scores matter for this population and for this school. If they’re low- performers — which they’re going to be because some of them don’t speak English and have never had a formal education before — that af- fects how much money is given to the school and how much staf we have.” Despite the diiculties, Long and Galvan both agreed that their students’ positive at- titudes afect the environment of the school substantially. “hey’re so happy,” Long said. “hey deal with so much more than the typi- cal U.S. kid, yet they’re so happy.” Rosie Arredondo, social service specialist for the high school, said the high school’s counseling services are crucial. “he reality is, if you run a school and only focus on the academics, you’re missing half of the picture,” Arredondo said. “You need to be able to have services that serve the students as a whole human be- ing — not just their academic side but their emotional and basic needs as well.” Arredondo said she is moved by how her students react to the challenges they face because they are so difer- ent from the typical struggles of a high school teenager. She said many of the kids have dif- icult and emotional stories, especially those who come from war-torn countries. “hese kids are coming in with so many diferent issues that are hindering their abil- ity to come into the classroom and learn their ABCs,” Arre- dondo said. “hey’re trying to not just adjust to a new language but to adjust to a new culture and a new fam- ily. hey’re adolescents, and they’re dealing with what’s go- ing to happen in their future, hormones and body changes — all of that stuf, too.” ìPsss st... do own he . ereî...
