ASUW elections
more competitive this
year with four tickets
BY RACHEL SOLOMON he Daily
As students anticipate tuition increases and
the HUB closure this fall, ASUW spring campaign
season began last week, and there are at least
four tickets vying for top seats in the student
government.
“Historically, ASUW elections have gone
through this cyclical nature,” said Archita Taylor,
chair of the Elections Administration Committee.
“It’s just the nature of the process. here’s a lot at
stake for next year.”
hough ASUW regularly lobbied Olympia this
session, public colleges are losing an estimated $73
million in funding as legislators struggled to ill a
$2.8-billion budget deicit.
“he state of higher education has never
been under as much threat as it is right now,”
said Madeleine McKenna, one of the candidates
for ASUW president. “I think students deserve
a president who has the goals and experience to
lead in diicult times.”
McKenna, who is the current ASUW vice
president, heads the One Campus ticket, running
on a platform of ighting for afordable tuition,
limiting the efects of budgets cuts and further
engaging students in campus activities.
Two years ago, she said, the elections were
similarly competitive.
“It was more similar to what we see this
year,” McKenna said. “I don’t know if it’s just
the pendulum swings back and forth, or maybe
it’s because students recognize there are huge
challenges facing them.”
Last year, UW United was the only ticket in
the elections, uncontested in all ballot positions
except president, which UW United candidate
Tim Mensing won by a needle-thin margin.
“It’ll be great to see how the election unfolds in
the next few weeks,” Taylor said. “You never know

UW gets feedback on website redesign
BY BRYDEN MCGRATH he Daily
A ive-person marketing Web team
has been working on a redesign
of the UW website for more than
a year in hopes of producing
improved audience navigation,
interactivity and social-networking
options. now that it’s been up for a
week, the design team has started to
receive feedback on the project.
From the ive new “portals”
featuring the university’s
prominence in education,
sustainability, innovation, healthy
lives and global citizens, to the
loating news stories near the top
of the home page, the team inished
Sometimes it’s just
“time
to modernize.”
— gInA HILLS
Associate director of Web
communications
the major overhaul April 12.
“When I returned to the UW
in 2004, I was amazed to see what
a powerhouse we had become
in education, research, medicine
and beyond,” UW president Mark
Emmert said in a press release. “Our
vibrant new home page will give us
yet another platform to share the
many incredible accomplishments of
our researchers, faculty and students.”
he redesign took into account
research on how the UW is perceived
at the local and national levels,
including the use of focus groups and
Web surveys. new Web pages started
appearing during the weekend of
April 10, with the new UW website
up and running Monday, April 12.
“Sometimes it’s just time to
modernize,” said gina Hills, associate
director of Web communications and
manager of the marketing Web team.
“One of the things we’ve attempted
to do with the UW home page is to
make it more modern, more vibrant
and [implement] stronger use of
school colors.”
So far, the response to the
redesign has been mixed.
A redesign blog featured on
the new home page has served as
a place where the Web team can
communicate with and receive
feedback from the UW community.
recent comments range from praise
to disappointment.
One user commented, “I love our
new homepage. Clean, dynamic, [and]
something we can all be proud of.”
Another wrote, “he new website
is visually too busy. hose loating
icons are too much.”
he website is averaging 70,000
visits per day and 104,000 page
views per day, while also seeing a
17-percent increase in home-page
hits from April 5 to 12.
“It’s kind of been all over the
map,” Hills said of the response to
the redesign. “Some people love it,
and they’re thrilled. Some people
don’t like the changes because they
were used to the old navigation
system, and they have to use the
new one. Some people don’t think
we should be having all those big
stories on top; they want to go
straight to links and headlines.”
Hills said the largest cost of the
redesign was the staf payroll, and
the team bought two programs that
cost just over $36. he irst, xFlow,
is responsible for the loating news
stories, while the second, Longtail
video, lets users enable closed
captioning on videos.
Migrations to the new design are
ongoing for campus websites. he
basic header and footer is available on
the redesign blog for UW departments
that want to adopt the new look.
“We don’t own most of the Web
pages on the university Web, they’re
owned by schools, departments,
programs and individuals,” Hills

said. “It’s up to those folks to do
with it what they will.”
Adjustments, including the
placement of MyUW links, have
been made due to feedback. As the
redesign blog continues to act as
a dialogue between the Web team
and the UW community, Hills said
the development of a code so that
the new website will display well on
mobile devices is up next.
“Basically, what we’re seeing is
we have a lot of people go to the
page for diferent reasons,” Hills
said. “hey use it diferently, and
their reaction relects that.”

Kyle Fuller, this year’s ASUW
director of programming, is also
running for president with the Husky
nation ticket.
She identiied another challenge
facing the UW next year: the HUB
renovation.
“With the HUB closing, it’s going
to be really hard to get students to
come to us, so we have to come to
them,” Fuller said. “We need to go
to all the residence halls quarterly,
go to all greek houses and the ECC.
We don’t table right now, either.”
Ensuring that ASUW has a visible
presence on campus tops Fuller’s
presidential to-do list. She wants to
bring ASUW back to the students.
“I feel that sometimes the president
and board of directors as a whole get
too involved within themselves and the
administration,” Fuller said. “I’ve seen
the power and the passion working
with students and their programs.
Students care — we just haven’t taken
the time to ask them.”
he presidential candidate on the
ticket Team Legacy is Beto Soto.
“We’re reopening opportunities for
students to come in within the ASUW
and fulill their talent and ability,
whether it be through advocacy or
through school spirit,” Soto said.
“We’re also concerned about the
U-pASS and the price of tuition.”

“We’re here to take care of a speciic
aspect of student life,” said presidential
candidate Teeny. “What we want to do
is not to bring awareness that ASUW is
there, but rather show what its proper
place is.”
Since candidates don’t oicially

opportunities for students to add their
names to the ballot.

A federal judge has unsealed
the case of a student at Brown
University who sought “unspeciied

that accused him of rape.
According to The Brown

accuses the university and a
number of different university
employees of “acts ‘tantamount to
criminality,’ breach of contract,
false imprisonment, libel and six
other counts of civil misconduct.”
It also says that the university had
other motives — apparently, the
father of the female student was an
alumnus who donated large sums
of money to the university.
he defendants also claim that
the male student was “detained
unlawfully” and pressured to leave
the university.
he plaintifs iled a motion
to unseal the case on March 29,
arguing that the case should be
made public and that the defendants
did not have a right to seal it.
However, the unsealed case
will likely drop some of the Brown
defendants, as well as some of the
charges, the Herald reported.

Both parties are
citing “irreconcilable

according to geno Cano, the
night manager at the Lusty Lady, the
past ive years have been really tough.
he business bleeds money every
week and will be closing in June.
a tough economy, construction
in the area and the rise of internet
pornography are to blame, Cano said.
“it looks kind of dirty, but the
signs are funny,” senior Laura Baer
said.
for nearly 30 years, the marquee
has opened first avenue to a world of
liberating wit and sexual innuendo;
however, in changing times, that
seems to be the peep show’s only
saving grace.
“i’ve never heard of anyone going
and coming back and boasting about
it,” senior anders heller said. “i never
frequented it, but i’ve heard of others
going.”
Like heller, i had only heard of
others going to the Lusty Lady and

i have held both a
paid internship
and an unpaid
internship. i was
free to quit at any
time during both,
and i never felt
that i was being
taken advantage of.
in all honesty, i enjoyed my unpaid
internship more and i loved the
experience. i had a lot of fun writing
feature articles on things like clamchowder festivals for a small-town
newspaper, and i had the chance to
learn from professional journalists.
hat’s what internships are for: to
gain experience.
unfortunately, many of these unpaid,
experiential-learning jobs are illegal.
he New York Times reported
President Barack obama’s
administration wants to crack down
on labor-law violations, speciically
those related to unpaid internships.
he labor department has some
criteria for what constitutes an
unpaid trainee (intern) and what
constitutes an employee, according to
the fair Labor standards act.
for a worker to be deemed an
“intern” under the act, “he employer
that provides the training derives
no immediate advantage from the
activities of the trainees, and on
occasion, the employer’s operations
may actually be impeded.”
hat sole requirement via basic
economic principles makes every
internship disadvantageous for the
business. But companies only hire
interns if the interns beneit them.
what’s fascinating is that during
obama’s presidential campaign, he
seemed to take advantage of as many
volunteers as possible. his campaign
hired people for unpaid labor who
probably would have been paid
laborers for other campaigns. he
would have received the direct beneit
of their labor. you could argue that
these were volunteers, but they were
more voluntary employees insofar as
they were not being trained and the
campaign beneitted from them.
internships are an alternative
form of education, a form that was
widely applied until recently in
history. here’s only so much that can
be learned in a classroom. i met a
ilm producer who got started in that
business because she worked at an
unpaid internship at a radio station.
she’s 23.

in steven spielberg’s

Report, the future
was illed with
people in ish tanks
who predict “future

then projected on the
coolest computer of the
past decade. well the future is here.
and it is scary.
according to yahoo news, the
florida department of Juvenile
Justice has implemented iBM
predictive-analysis sotware to
predict and prevent people from
becoming criminals. a press release
from sPss, the company that created
the sotware, said the Ministry of
Justice in the united Kingdom
already uses the program for
predicting re-ofending criminals.
this program works by putting a
person through a series of variables
such as home environment, past
criminal behavior, gang and peer
networks, and categorizing the
subject from a number of outcomes
to see if he or she could easily
become a threat to the public.
Basically, it is a very complex excel
spreadsheet, only it is said to work
in “real time” to combat crime.
Predictive analysis is starting to
cities and police departments.
But who or what decides these
factors for predictive analysis?
this machine is just a way to
discriminate on a wide scale,
even before the criminal has done
something wrong.

Local landmark won’t be
missed by many
night when we decided to make the walk to
downtown. neither of us had ever been to the Lusty
Lady, yet we’d both been intrigued by the sign. i
suppose it only took the persuasion of Jose Cuervo
to act on our curiosity.
here’s no cover. you walk into a dark room lined
with doors. tissue boxes are mounted on the wall.
you step into a booth, slip a single dollar bill into the
machine, and then an opaque screen covering the
window slides open for two minutes.
you get what you pay for: four to ive bored-looking
ladies “dancing” on stage behind a sheet of glass.
“hink of it like a zoo, only cheaper,” said a yelp
reviewer.
it’s a women-managed business, and in an article
in he Stranger, some of the women say that they
feel safer working at the Lusty Lady than a law oice.
an eponymously titled photographic book was even
published in 1997, focusing on the love, humor and
boredom behind the seattle business.
it was uncomfortable to watch the performers mope
around the stage, looking more miserable than a student
on a Monday morning — so uncomfortable that both
my friend and i felt compelled to leave ater only a few
seconds of the show. it’s hard to believe that emotions
such as love and humor could exist in such a place.
a major reason the experience is supposed to be
fun is because it’s novel, but is this really the kind of
place we want representing seattle? Maybe, if you are
the used-tissues-lying-on-the-ground kind of person.
according to he Stranger, Mimi gates, Bill gates’
step-mother and former director of the seattle art
Museum, said, “he Lusty Lady’s marquee is a seattle
landmark.”
uw senior ryan Collins had heard about the
Lusty Lady’s iconic status in local newspapers.
“i don’t really care that it’s a historical icon; it sucks
that the economy is hurting another business,” he said.
i agree that the marquee is an icon, one that has
added a nice quirky touch to seattle and will be
missed, but here’s the unfortunate truth: he business
itself will be missed by few.
“it’s a cool building, but i’m not going to miss the
Lusty Lady,” Baer said.

On June 29, 1969, a dynamite bomb exploded in the
hallway of Gerberding Hall, the former administration
building. Causing more than $100,000 in damage, the
explosion created a 6-foot hole where it was planted, exposing
the loor underneath. Besides shattering most of the windows
on both sides of the building, it broke windows in three other
buildings, including Suzzallo Library and Parrington Hall. No
culprit or motive was discovered. University regent and Seattle
attorney Harold Shefelman called the bombing “the work of a
mad mind.” During this time, thousands of demonstrators at
the UW were protesting the Vietnam War. he blast occurred
10 days ater a fake bomb was found in an unoccupied room
of one of the residence halls. Clark Hall, which houses the
Reserve Oicer Training Corps, was bombed twice around this
time.

Making a diference with
CHICkENS AND GOATS
UW students use classroom skills during Panama brigade
BY NICK VISSER he Daily
his past spring break, sophomore
Blake Strickland used some of the
information from his business and
marketing classes to igure out how
to appropriately market a few dozen
chickens and some goats.
Strickland was the coordinator of a trip down to panama a few
weeks ago through global Business Brigades (gBB), a student-led
organization that travels to developing nations to aid rural communities. Along with 29 other students,
they traveled to a farmer’s cooperative for a ive-day venture.
hrough the global Brigades
organization, campus groups are
given a community to work with and
develop during a short amount of
time. Sometimes these communities
have a history with brigades, and
others are a clean slate to work with.
In 2008, 19 UW students went on
their irst business brigade to a cofee
farm in Panama, including Strickland.
“here was sort of an ‘aha’ moment when we were investing in this
farm,” Strickland said. “We increased
their revenue by 400 percent just in
the time that we were there, the price
of a unit rising from $9 to $15.”
It was this long-term impact that
intrigued Strickland and spurred
him to become more involved with
GBB and travel to Panama again this
year. he UW chapter traveled to
Machuca village, a small community of 800 a few hours outside of
Panama City that had never worked
with GBB before.
Machuca was an area that raised
chickens and goats primarily as a
self-sustainable industry, selling
some of their excess product to
grocery stores and middlemen for a
small profit. GBB went to the area
with the intent to help expand their
industry and make the chickens
and goats profitable.
“We invested enough in their
chicken sector that they were able
to triple their capacity, to build their
infrastructure enough so they can cut
out the middleman,” Strickland said.
As part of the program fee, each
student had a portion set aside to
invest in the community and create
a structure that will have a long-
lasting impact.
“Everyone brings with them
$100 to give towards the community,” Strickland said. “We call that
the community investment; we had
$2,900 to use in the best way possible
to increase their income and increase
their standard of living.”
Junior Peter Fantham was a participant in GBB’s most recent brigade
to Machuca. He noticed that rather
than pressing all of the group’s ideas
upon the community, the investment
and buildup of their infrastructure
needed to be a cooperative efort.
“We had to consider the motivation and passion that the community had there, and we had to go
along with that and support that,”
Fantham said. “If the motivation’s
not there, it won’t work.”
he community was adamant
about developing their chicken industry, which was only selling about
50 chickens every six weeks. Using $2000 of their communityinvestment funds, GBB was able to
expand the industry to 150 chickens
sold every two weeks, along with
building a new coop that is better
suited to the rainy season.
“We invested in what we
thought we should to help them
grow their own, sustainable business,” Fantham said.
Helping develop this community was a rewarding experience for
its participants as well, due to the
eye-opening opportunity. Business
students were able to combine their
classroom knowledge with real,
rural development.
“We take a lot of things for
granted,” Fantham said ater the
trip. “I think it takes going to a place
like Panama or Mexico and actually
seeing how two-thirds of the world
lives. Being immersed in that is a
humbling and necessary experience.”
he rest of the investment funds
were used to develop the goat industry in the village. More of a long-term
investment, the group ended up purchasing one male goat for the village
to help jump-start the production.
Even though the community was
very impoverished and operated on
a self-sustainable industry, Fantham
said he believed the conditions
didn’t negatively impact the culture.
“When you interact with people
down there, they actually seem
happier at the core than we are,”
Fantham said. “I think because it’s
the simple things for them that
makes them happy.”
Freshman Zea Collentine was
also among the brigadiers, but
without the usual Foster School
ailiation. She said the opportunity isn’t about the major you are
associated with, but more about the
personal gain.
“It doesn’t really matter if you’re
a business major; the experience is
great for anyone,” Collentine said.
“Age or major doesn’t matter in the
situation. Just the experience of
doing something cultural is great for
anyone to get involved.”
Collentine feels one of the most appealing things about the program was
the ability for follow-up year ater year.
Ater they let Panama, an
organization called Patronato de
Nutricion, a non-proit run by local
Panamanians, helps ensure the community investments are used to their
maximum potential.
“You have people doing follow-up
to make sure some of the ideas and
stuf we talk about with the community actually happens,” Collentine said.
he UW’s GBB chapter has the
opportunity to continue its project a
year from now ater observing what
impact their previous eforts have.
“We were the first one to come
to that community, and there were
a lot of different ideas on how
to help that community, but you
can’t do it all at once,” Collentine
said. “Next year, a group can come
down and keep working on what
we started, but improve it.”
Volunteering a continent away
may seem like a futile efort in the
grand scheme of things, but Business
Brigades has a system that allows the
imbued efort to blossom and grow
long ater the participants leave.
During spring break, 29 students changed a community in
just five days. Even if they are only
helping with a few-dozen chickens
and a goat, the Machuca village will
never be the same.

Program can move faster in
second year
he numbers don’t lie: Bringing in holt to revamp the
husky defense has led to success. during his irst year,
the uW defense gave up 12 fewer points per game and 62
fewer yards per game than it had the year prior. No longer
were teams embarrassing the huskies by putting up 30,
40, and sometimes 50 points on the board.
Now holt — a 1986 graduate of Paciic — will be
looking to further improve a husky defense that has
a lot of promise for the 2010 season. Williams, along
with Mason Foster, Cort dennison and Cameron
elisara, are players holt sees stepping up so far.
“hose four guys have really stepped up in taking it
to another level as far as their play,” holt said last week at
spring practice. “hat’s what i feel really good about. We
need to bring everybody else up to the next level, too.”
holt says now that he’s been with the better part
of the defensive unit for nearly one year, it has helped
speed up everything from drills, to meetings, or
tempo in practice.
“everything is at a higher pace in the second year,”
the san Jose native says. “you can really move forward
more quickly with your coaching and teaching,
that’s the biggest thing of the second year in your
programs.”
Not only do the players feel more comfortable,
but the coaches do, too. every member of last year’s
coaching staf is returning, including secondary coach
Jef Mills, who echoes the general consensus that
overall, things can get done faster and the team can
progress faster with the coaching staf returning.
“With the training we’ve done in the ofseason, we’re
now bigger, faster and stronger,” Mills said. “We are
arriving [to spots] a step sooner than we did before.”
With spring football already halfway over, holt has
seen things he has liked. Players have begun to pick up
the harder concepts, and underclassmen are showing a
lot of promise. While some of the younger players have
not completely bought into the program, that holt and
the rest of his staf have laid out, the defensive coordinator
says the majority of the players are on board.
“he young guys haven’t; they don’t know anything
yet, because they are so inexperienced, but most of
the kids that have been around have bought in, and
that makes it a lot easier,” holt said. “hey believe in
what they’re doing.”

uW trying to bounce back
from tough road losses
baseball
huskies host portland
tonight at 6 p.m.
BY ALLEN WAGNER he Daily
ater a couple of close losses to
arizona, the uW baseball team
let tucson, ariz., to return home
for a quick game against Portland
tonight, wondering, perhaps, how it
lost two tight games to the Wildcats
ater a convincing irst-game win.
ater going ahead of the
Wildcats with a win on Friday, the
huskies lost on saturday when
andy smith, representing the tying
run, was thrown out at home, and
on sunday, when, with the game
tied at 7, Jacob Clem allowed two
runs in the eighth inning.
uW head coach lindsay Meggs
stopped short of saying that losing
both games in such a manner was
demoralizing but noted that it was
something the team can control.
“it’s a pattern that we’ve seen
from the beginning,” Meggs said.
“to say it’s demoralizing is a bit
dramatic, but it’s a pattern that we
have to work on.”
in sunday’s loss to arizona, the
huskies tied the Wildcats on four
separate occasions and appeared
close to taking a lead several times
but simply couldn’t get it done in
crucial situations.
“it says we’re close,” Meggs said.
“We’ve proven that we can play with
just about anybody, but we lack
that knock-out blow to separate
ourselves and put somebody away.
and, until we establish it, we’re one
step away.”
For the huskies in previous
years, inding that knock-out blow
meant looking to their biggest
slugger — players like Kyle Conley
and tim lincecum gave the
huskies the edge they needed to
win close games in the past — but
it’s a diferent story this year.
here doesn’t seem to be one guy
who consistently produces. rather,
every player on the team seems to be
contributing something.
regardless, Meggs is looking
for better at-bats in critical
moments to help the huskies make
that push from middle-of-the-road
to Pac-10 contender.
“We have to be tougher at
crunch time in the batters box,”
Meggs said. “We have to ind those
players that take their best at-bats
with runners in scoring position.”
But they’re going to have to
igure that out soon, because
ater their game against Portland
tonight — adrian Gomez is getting
the start on the mound for the
huskies — the uW plays No. 1
arizona state and former uW head
coach Ken Knutson, who is now an
assistant coach at asu.
“We’re still working to create
that identity,” Meggs said. “We like
to be recognized as somebody who
wins those close games and thrives
in those close games. But we’re not
there yet, we’re working to get there.”

Defensive coordinator Nick Holt speaks to cornerback Desmond Trufant during Washington’s 36-33 win over Arizona last season. Holt returns for his second year and has high hopes for his defensive unit.
BY TAYLOR SOPER he Daily
iN your
FaCe
Second-year defensive coordinator Nick
Holt is looking to bolster an already
much-improved Husky defense
it’s all back: the shiny bald head, the intensity, and the
expertise in defense.
defensive coordinator Nick holt returns for his
second year to lead a much-improved husky defense
into the 2010-11 season. starting from last spring, the
former usC defensive coordinator has brought about
many changes to the new-look defense, mentally and
physically.
But one thing that hasn’t changed much in holt’s
second year is the in-your-face intensity. Whether holt
is nearly halfway up the 50-yard line screaming at a
referee or simply pulling one of his players aside on
the sideline, husky fans have become well aware of the
passion holt brings to the ield, both in practice and on
game day.
and just because the players now know what to
expect from holt doesn’t mean the intensity isn’t as
meaningful or powerful as it was last year.
“he’s still all in your face,” senior safety Nate
Williams said. “if it’s your irst, third or eighth year with
him, i’m pretty sure he’ll be just as intense compared to
the irst year.”
While it might get their hearts beating a little faster
in practice, holt’s passion is all for the better, his players
say. his holds true especially when the defense might
not be performing to the best of its abilities during
game day.
“We all love it, though,” Williams continued. “i
feel like that’s what you need to be a successful unit;
you need an intense coach like that to get everyone
pumped up. When the momentum has changed to the
opposing team, Coach holt is always the irst one to get
in your face and get everyone riled up. i love it, and i’m
excited.”

Romar here to stay, agrees to 10-year deal
men’s basketball
head coach to be
at uW through 2020
BY CHRISTIAN CAPLE he Daily
Lorenzo Romar
entering his ninth year as the huskies’ head
coach next year, Lorenzo romar is already
the longest-tenured coach at his current
school in the Pac-10.
washington made sure yesterday that
won’t change any time soon.
he uW and athletic director scott
Woodward announced Monday that
romar agreed to a new 10-year deal that
would keep him at the school through the
2019-20 season.
details of the contract were not made
available, but the school said in a release
that romar recently agreed to the general
terms of his new deal, which extends for
another decade. he had six years remaining
on his previous contract, which was also
a 10-year deal when he signed it and paid
him just over $1 million per year. hat
igure will almost certainly increase under
the new agreement.
romar said in the release that he “could
not be more excited,” adding: “his new
agreement enables us to continue the
challenge of taking the program to the next
level of competitive success.”
romar is 171-91 as uW’s head coach,
leading the huskies this season to their third
sweet 16 appearance during his tenure.
Washington has qualiied for the NCaa
tournament in ive of his eight seasons, and
romar also guided uW in 2009 to its irst
outright conference title since 1953.
“lorenzo romar has done a phenomenal
job here at the university of Washington,”
Woodward said. “he clearly loves the
university, has a passion for what he does and
has the respect of his team, our fans and his
peers. i have the utmost respect for lorenzo,
and i am conident he will continue to lead
our program to new heights.”
