It took all of us by sur- prise,” Ameringer said. “I was at a bar watching the football game, and I was just talking with someone, and the next thing I know, the bar lady came up and asked us if we had looked at the news. At that time, 18 were dead.” Ameringer said the bar soon evacuated all the cus- tomers, but she said people remained unsure if walking or using the metro to get home were safe options. Kori Morris, interna- tional relations junior, said she was walking back after watching the new James Bond movie when the at- tacks began escalating.

You can come to our house.’ As the hour went on, the police said, ‘Don’t go outside, stay inside,’” Morris said. Sirens from ambulances rushing to the affected ar- eas could be heard all night, said Wynne Davis, interna- tional relations senior and former Daily Texan staffer. She said she was struck by the resilience of Parisians in the face of the attacks. “[On Saturday], I got as close as I could to the Bataclan music hall, and there was just an outpour- ing of people,” Davis said. “People are mourning, and you wouldn’t expect any less with a tragedy of this size.

Pet dogs, clients of the Cornell hospital, played a crucial role in Boyko’s re- search. He said they can ofer the scientiic community a way to learn more about dog health in the future. “We’ve got 70 million pet dogs in the United States, and they’re really an un- tapped genetic resource for understanding dog health, dog evolution, and, in some cases, even being able to tell us about human health,” Boyko said.

Victims of sexual assault should be able to choose between reporting to the university or to law enforce- ment because victims vary in their perceptions of justice, Erin Burrows, health educa- tion coordinator for Voices Against Violence, said. “For some people the criminal legal system is not a solution as it is not what their deinition of justice would be, even if the case went through the highest end of for possible consequences the ofender,” Burrows said. “For some people, they want to feel safer on campus, and the Cornell veterinary hos- pital, Boyko also traveled the world to collect genetic and physical data from popula- tions of feral village dogs unafected by generations of human breeding. “Dogs are a great species to study because you show up, bring food, and they come to you,” Boyko said. Findings on dog traits, the origin of dogs and dog dis- eases were made possible by the large worldwide dataset, which Boyko termed “big dog data.” UT’s Center for Computa- tional Biology and Bioinfor- matics, which uses data and computation to solve prob- lems in biology, hosted the event. Hans Hofman, direc- tor of the center, said he in- vited Boyko to speak because he is a leading expert in the ield. “Since the dog genome the has been sequenced, dog has emerged as a model system for understanding how variation in the geno- type gives rise to variation in the phenotype,” Hofman said. “Adam Boyko has been collage of diference that we hope will reach out to the broadest possible audience.” Mallapragada began her talk by showing a trailer for a new Netlix series, “Mas- ter of None,” which stars Indian-American comedian Aziz Ansari as a young adult navigating work and rela- tionships in New York City. “Just because Aziz Ansari is on TV and on Netflix, and just because Priyanka Chopra is on ‘Quantico,’and et cetera, et cetera, it doesn’t mean that we don’t have any critiques left or that we can’t launch a critique,” Mallapragada said. “Our critiques need to be in tan- dem with the new realities that are coming about.” Mallapragada pointed out the series “Homeland” as an example of how issues with diversity remain problem- atic in television. Although “Homeland”’s protagonist is a woman, its cast is mostly white, even though much of it takes place in the Middle East and deals with prob- lems in the Middle East. At the same time, all of its writers are white men, ac- cording to Mallapragada. R a d i o - tel e v is i on - f i l m graduate student Rebecca Jackson said she appreciat- ed that Mallagrapada talked about the business motiva- tions behind representing diversity. “It was great to see that she was going past just ideas of representation and what do we see and into the industry and what are the interests behind business certain representations,” Jackson said. they want to continue their own education [by utilizing the university disciplinary process]. Some people know they want a criminal investi- gation from the beginning.” UTPD Chief David Carter said a university investiga- tion greatly difers from a criminal investigation con- ducted by law enforcement because the outcomes and the burden of proof are dif- ferent. “In a criminal case, the case has to be brought before a court following constitu- tional principles, and the person is found guilty only by a jury with the burden of proof of beyond a rea- sonable doubt,” Carter said. “he administrative inves- tigation does not have that burden of proof; it is basi- cally through the prepon- derance of evidence, which is much less. his is because, in the criminal side, the po- tential outcome is the loss of someone’s liberty, but on the administrative side, the po- tential outcome is the loss of somebody’s property interest — for example, the ability to go to school or get a job.” he university has the power to change on campus housing and provide aca- demic accommodations to victims if deemed necessary, in contrast to law enforce- ment, UT’s Title IX coordi- nator LaToya Hill said. “A temporary no contact directive could be put in place, minimally during the investigation and even fol- lowing the investigation [so] the University can say that the individuals are to have no direct contact,” Hill said. “he University can also work with housing for relocation and can provide academic rem- edies if deemed necessary, re- gardless of the outcome of the investigation.” INVESTIGATING UNDER CAMPUS SAFETY ACT UT Title IX Office P UTPD BURDEN OF PROOF Preponderance of the Evidence — The standard is met if there is a greater than 50 percent chance that the defendant is guilty.

TOOLS OUTCOME A university must work with witnesses, the complainant and the respondent to gather evidence. All discovery is based on the will of the participants and public records regarding the incident including affidavits produced by law enforcement. The University could issue a no-contact order which would prevent the complainant and respondent from communicating through any means. The University could also assist either party in changing on-campus housing or getting academic accommodations from professors.

Voluntourism, a portmanteau of volun- teer and tourism, is contradictory and sug- gests that volunteering is a well-intentioned efort that can easily be put aside to make time for fun. The intent behind these trips is gener- ally selfish when the interest is personal gain. Carrie Kahn from NPR writes that “some trips help young adults pad their résumés or college applications more than they help those in need.” If a cause is so important to people, they wouldn’t be wasting time touring a place when they could be helping more. “Voluntourism perpetuates the same lack of caring for the people in those areas,” said Jacob Barrios, government and Mexican American studies senior. “hese voluntour- ism programs might have good intentions, but a lot of times they come in and help com- munities in ways that are not actually helpful to these communities.” his is a form of modern colonialism.

Other consequences include emotional damage to children and WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEK Bringing people in and putting them to work puts locals out of jobs.

As a result, the communities themselves don’t see progress following West- erners’ visits. his form of volunteering that makes the time to sightsee speciically targets underde- veloped environments. In an article for Gen- eration Progress, geographer Amy Norman is quoted saying that “In the West, the idea of allowing foreign tourists to come visit in- stitutions where vulnerable children live, and to combine this with a trip to say, the Grand Canyon, well this would seem outrageous, … but for some reason this seems perfectly nor- mal … in Africa.” Rocío Villalobos is the program coordina- tor at the Multicultural Engagement Center and volunteers with groups focusing on im- migrant rights, women’s rights, education, and mental health issues.

Taking time of of volunteering to tour a new place is counterproductive to helping a community, especially when the eforts can do more harm than good. Pizarro is an English sophomore from El Paso.

Safe Campus Act will not make campus safer By Laura Hallas Daily Texan Columnist @laurahallas If a student’s bike is stolen on campus, they can choose to report the incident to the police, the university or both. If a student is sexually assaulted on campus, they can choose to report the incident to the police, the university or both. A bill proposed in the nation’s Senate would give survivors of campus sexual assault fewer options than victims of bike thet. he innocuous-sounding Safe Campus Act would, if enacted, restrict the actions that a university can take on behalf of a sexual as- sault survivor until they agree to irst take their case to law enforcement. Furthermore, this initial report must happen within 48 hours of the event, an absurdly short amount of time for a traumatized person to compose themselves, clarify what actually happened and ind out how and where to report it. Universities provide support without survi- vors ever having to engage in the judicial pro- cess. Mental health centers like the one at UT ofer conidential counseling, advocacy and advice on what to do when and if survivors re- port. he University can also make academic accommodations, such as giving survivors time of of school to recover or helping them get out of classes they share with an alleged assailant. Police departments aren’t involved in these day-to-day interactions. Instead, they oten fo- cus on the legal aspects of a case. Universities, however, have an entire system under the Title IX amendment that promotes sexual equality and safety. While both entities are important, universities can do more to improve the lives of survivors of sexual assault, whether the stu- dents choose to press charges or not. Survivors are already less likely to report to police for a variety of reasons. Universities, while they still have bureaucratic obstacles, have nonetheless seen a rise in reports — not because there is more crime, but because more students are comfortable coming forward for help from an institution so close to them. Cam- puses have the resources and commitment to focus on the single crime of sexual assault, but police departments don’t have the same liberty. Enacting the Safe Campus Act would be a huge step backwards. Women’s Resource Agency director Grace Gilker said university support is an impor- tant reason survivors come forward with their stories. “Reporting any crime, especially reporting sexual assault, regardless of whether you go to the police, is a very, very long, diicult process,” Gilker said. “hat access to counseling and campus support is a reason to go forward.” University oices are not allowed to pos- tulate on the efects of the proposed legisla- tion on UT’s services, but with the level of the Safe Campus Act’s restriction on universities, one can imagine a system where even basic counseling services could be dependent on a survivor iling a police report. Fewer resources means fewer cases that receive a fair hearing. “I don’t think it’s just one department’s or one person’s responsibility to create a safe environ- ment,” Title IX coordinator Latoya Hill said. “We are all a part of this system.” With the help of universities, survivors can do things to help themselves that have nothing to do with their legal case or their alleged assail- ant. Only when survivors feel empowered, not limited, in their options can we say that we have truly safe campuses. Hallas is a Plan II and human development freshman from Houston.

Charlotte Carpenter | Daily Texan Staff DHFS Friendsgiving event can help international students feel at home By Benroy Chan Daily Texan Columnist @BenroyChan As students return home next week to celebrate hanksgiving, a holiday deeply in- grained in American culture, UT’s approxi- mately 4,800 international students may view the tradition as a break from class and nothing more. heir disengaged attitude on this holi- day relects the student body’s failure to incor- porate international students as a whole. A 2015 study analyzed the negative ex- periences international students had in col- leges in the southern United States. In inter- views, these students said they faced social isolation and culture shock. While many students have to deal with being miles away from their families, international students must do so while learning new customs and eating unfamiliar foods. And due to lan- guage barriers, many of them also under- went academic struggles. International students come to the 40 Acres for educational pursuits, but during this time, they have the right to grasp the city’s culture and be a part of it as much as any other student. Cultural barriers prevent this from happening, and more should be done to take them down. his hursday, DHFS will help create a hanksgiving feeling at UT with a “Friendsgiv- ing” dinner at J2 and Kinsolving. he title of the event is self-explanatory for students familiar with hanksgiving, but without cluing interna- tional students into the idea of hanksgiving’s, they’re efectively let out of the equation. “I really don’t know much about hanks- giving other than turkey and Black Friday,” geological sciences freshman Arisa Ruang- sirikulchai said. Ruangsirikulchai is from Bangkok, hai- land, and she started attending UT just this fall. Out of all the things she misses from home, she yearns for the community and food the most. Although Ruangsirikulchai has been in the States for over a year, certain aspects of Ameri- can culture trouble her that other students would deem as normal. “Americans seem really individualistic com- pared to hai people,” Ruangsirikulchai said. “People starting random conversations with strangers also surprises me, and I miss the la- vor [of hai food] a lot.” Instead of letting international students remain disconnected from hanksgiving, students and faculty at UT should encourage them to attend Friendsgiving. Students will have the chance to incorporate their interna- tional peers into the Longhorn family and, ul- timately, American culture in general. Chan is a journalism freshman from Sugar Land.

Now, a few months into the school year, Khalid sings in Arabic and shows Jamal new yoga moves he learns in his enrichment class.

WEST VIRGINIA Turnovers add to Texas’ road woes By Nick Castillo @Nick_Castillo74 Texas’ margin for error was slim, with five losses and thin bowl chances entering Saturday’s game against West Virginia. The margin and bowl chances decreased as the turnovers piled up and the Longhorns walked off the field with a 38-20 loss to the Mountaineers. “We had five turnovers and a number of penal- ties,” head coach Charlie Strong said. “It’s tough to win a game, especially on the road. We played well enough and if we could just eliminate some mistakes that we made. … We can only continue to just battle. We have two more left, and we just have to continue to work to get better.” Texas could’ve opened the game with a touch- down when redshirt fresh- man quarterback Jerrod Heard found the end zone on a run, but it was called back on a holding pen- alty by freshman offensive tackle Connor Williams. The Longhorns would get on the board first with a 31-yard field goal by senior kicker Nick Rose. from The momentum was in Texas’ favor as the defense began the game with an fresh- interception man cornerback Davante Davis and continued by forcing two punts.

Foreman redeemed himself on the following possession with a 65-yard touchdown run. But the Longhorns’ woes would continue. Junior quarter- back Tyrone Swoopes fum- bled in Mountaineer terri- tory in the second quarter. Freshman cornerback Kris Boyd fumbled on a kickoff return in the third quarter. Texas had its fate sealed two when Heard threw fourth quarter interceptions. “I didn’t do good,” Heard said. “I threw those two picks. When you take two turnovers that hurts the team.” The Longhorns needed to come out fast, as they entered the game 0-3 in road games. Texas did what it needed to do by scoring first and out-gaining West Virginia 439-379. But the turnovers and seven pen- alties for 55 yards added a new wrinkle to the team’s road problems. “That’s what’s frustrat- ing when you turn the ball over so many times and you’re on the road, and you have to protect the foot- ball, knowing that you can’t turn it over,” Strong said. “You just can’t do it. You can’t do it against a good football team.” Texas wide receiver coach and play-caller Jay Norvell said the loss was frustrating he felt the Longhorns were capable of winning. because “It’s very frustrating,” Norvell said. “We feel we have some capable kids, and we did a lot of things we haven’t done on the road before.” Texas now has six losses and has to win its final two games if it wants to make a bowl game. “We still have a chance,” Strong said. But the chances are slim as the Longhorns play the No. 1 and No. 3 ranked of- fenses in the country in Baylor and Texas Tech next. If Texas doesn’t find a way to win its final two games, finish with its third losing season in six years. it’ll MEN’S BASKETBALL | UW 77 — TEXAS 71 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL | TEXAS 90 — UTSA 53 UTSA Roadrunners smoked by Longhorns in season opener By Tyler Horka @TexasTy95 Texas started the 2015- 2016 season with a 90- 53 win over UTSA at the Frank Erwin Center on Saturday night. The No. 12 Longhorns improved head coach Kar- en Aston’s record in season openers while in Austin to 4-0. Texas drilled three shots from three-point range in the first two minutes of the game, opening up a 9-3 lead. The Longhorns finished with nine three- pointers on 38 percent shooting from distance. Sophomore guard Brooke McCarty drained three shots from beyond the arc in the first five minutes of the contest. She finished with 22 points on 8-of-13 shooting from the field, including 4-of-6 from deep. Aston said that McCarty no longer looks like a “lost freshman” on the court. “Last year, I didn’t re- ally know what coach wanted.” McCarty said. “I was just trying to go off of instinct. This year, I know the plays, and I know how to feed off of my team- mates. That gives me more confidence.” scored McCarty 16 points in the first half, giving Texas a 44-21 lead locker heading into the room. She continued to make plays after the break. Imani Boyette stole a Roadrun- ner’s pass at the top of the key and raced down the floor all alone before missing the ensuing wide- open layup. Senior center McCarty snagged the rebound and put the ball in off the glass for her sev- enth made shot of the night less than two minutes into the second half. Two possessions later, McCarty dashed down the court on a fast break of her own. She found se- nior guard Celina Rodrigo all alone in the corner for three, pushing the Long- horns’ lead to 54-26. finished Rodrigo the the from game with 11 points on 4-of-8 field. All five of Texas’ start- ers ended with double- digit scores. “We have a feel for each other, and we know where each other are going to be on the court,” Rodri- go said. “We have great it really chemistry, and showed tonight.” The Texas starters fin- ished their night when Aston emptied the bench with 5:55 remaining in the fourth quarter. The Long- horns held an 82-39 lead at that mark. There were 2,596 peo- ple on hand to watch the Longhorns improve to 6-0 all time versus the Road- runners, but Aston wants to see that number rise as the season progresses. “I really do think that the word needs to spread about this team,” Aston said. “We have a chance to be really special.” The Longhorns host Northwestern State at 11 a.m. Wednesday at the Erwin Center. Sophomore guard Brooke McCarty led Texas’ win over of the Roadrunners. McCarty in- ished with 22 points, and 15 of them came in the irst half.

Texas lacks rhythm in loss to Huskies in China By Jacob Martella @viewfromthebox he Longhorns had the sit- uation they wanted down by two with time running down in the season opener against Washington. Ater a defensive stop, ju- nior guard Isaiah Taylor led a two-on-one down court with senior guard Javan Felix on the other end. But as promising as the at- tack started, it ended in dis- appointment. Taylor passed the ball to Felix who put up a 3-point attempt. Ater that shot missed, Felix got the ball again at the same spot and missed again. It would be as close as the Longhorns would get the rest of the night. Wash- ington went on a 4-0 run from that point to win 77- 71 and disrupt the oicial start of the Shaka Smart era Friday night. he sequence summed up almost the entire night for the Longhorns. Neither team could ind its stride on the ofensive end. Texas managed the game’s only two made shots through the irst four-plus minutes for a 5-2 lead. But coming out of the un- der 16 timeout, Washington found its shot. he Huskies broke the game open with an 18-8 run, taking a 20-13 lead with 10:13 let to go in the irst half. Texas eventually clawed back into the game with a 21- 14 run to tie the game at 34 at the half; however, Washing- ton would once again jump out to a comfortable mar- gin following the break. he Huskies went on an 8-1 run early in the second half to take a 50-43 at the irst media timeout of the second half. he again Longhorns managed to chip away at the deicit, eventually taking a 65-64 lead — their irst lead since just under six minutes into the game — on two free throws by Felix. But the lead lasted for all of 18 seconds. he Huskies answered immediately on a shot by freshman guard De- jounte Murray. he Long- horns wouldn’t get any closer the rest of the game. Taylor led all players with 27 points and shot 12-of-15 from the free-throw line. No other Longhorn scored more than seven points. Huskies senior guard An- drew Andrews — the team’s most experienced player — led his side with 23 points including three 3-pointers. he Longhorns return to Austin to face Texas A&M Corpus Christi on Nov. 21 at 7 p.m. 6 SIDELINE NFL PATRIOTS GIANTS COWBOYS BUCCANEERS TOP TWEET Caleb Bluiett @c_blu42 Praise God for every opportunity...

Since then, he has traded his electric guitar for a classical to inluence young musicians in the Austin community. Marcum blends his classical guitar training with his music education degree from UT to promote the development of creative outlets around Austin. Along with working as educa- tion director for the nonproit Austin Classical Guitar Soci- ety, Marcum also coordinates a community outreach program called the Lullaby Project. Marcum began his time with ACG in 2006, just two years ater the organization imple- mented its education outreach programs. He and executive director Matt Hinsley devel- oped a curriculum to incor- porate classical guitar learning into the classroom. He said the curriculum served as a tool to schools when to present pitching the program. “[Hinsley] was actually running the program out of his living room for a number of years,” Marcum said. “We went into these schools and set up the programs ourselves, teaching them for six months out of the year. We now have 55 programs about 3,500 students.” and Marcum said he attributes the successful development of the program to his music education degree. he courses he took in college and subse- quent research emphasized ensemble-based instruction over solo one-on-one lessons as a more eicient method for teaching instruments. “It’s very rare to have gui- tar-based curriculums at the middle and high school lev- els,” Marcum said. “here are a couple of pockets around the country where somebody does something right, and it’s al- ways with this ensemble-based MARCUM page 5 ALBUM REVIEW | ‘PURPOSE’ Matt Robertson | Daily Texan Staff Music education Ph.D. candidate Travis Marcum is a classically trained guitarist.

His career as a pop star might be controversial, but with fourth album, Pur- his pose, he tries to change the minds of critics by re- branding himself. Bieber began his ca- reer singing some of the most generic and sappiest imaginable, love ballads targeting a young teenage audience. As the Canadi- an singer songwriter grew older, he began to speak his mind through his art. Al- though his image suffered after several public stunts, his artistic goals matured with him. Purpose, re- leased Friday, combines production and songwrit- ing from dozens of artists in an attempt to reinvent Bieber’s image. While it might be adver- tised otherwise, Purpose is a true pop album at its core. With more than 20 produc- ers and 25 writing credits, every track is calculated by a team of talented individu- als. Some might argue that this removes the human as- pect to Bieber’s music. In- stead, the majority of songs don’t feel repetitive or ge- neric, and Bieber himself contributed heavily to the album’s lyrics. During “The Feeling,” Bieber sings, “I’m notori- ous thinking you’re full of beautiful,” a line that might go over well for with Beliebers, but is far too corny to be taken se- riously. The spoken word piece in “Purpose,” also strikes the wrong chord. Bieber might have com- posed it to portray his true emotions, but it comes off as a slightly creepy and off-putting moment. In “I Show You,” Bieber sings, “Life’s now easy, I’m not made out of steel. Don’t forget that I’m hu- that man, don’t to I’m real,” attempting newfound his display forget is actually humility. Whether his modesty throughout this record sin- cere or just a gambit for his fame, Bieber man- ages to stay convincing at crucial moments. His lyrics might suffer at times, but his vocal qual- ity is as steady as ever. Al- though beats occasionally trump his vocals, Bieber is able to convey some form of emotion with the majority of his lines.
