A unique student housing property with a

No Party policy
and innovative amenities and
services thrives in Tucson
also went to the Corn Maze for Halloween and to the International
Festival of Tucson. And that was just for October!
Sahara is still the only student building in Tucson that will give
every resident a FREE bicycle to ride while living at Sahara. We
even maintain and repair the bikes for free. And Sahara is the only
student building that takes its residents grocery and mall shopping
every weeknight.
Sahara Apartments is in its 10th year of operation as a student

housing project in Tucson. Ted Mehr, the owner of Sahara
Apartments, has introduced a lot of innovations to the Tucson student
housing market.
Ted, who still manages the building on a day to day basis,
developed this project as the paranoid father of a college age
daughter, who was concerned about his own daughters safety and
comfort when she had gone to live on her own while attending college.
Some of Teds ideas have been duplicated by others, and some are
still unique to Sahara.
For example, Sahara is still the only building that does not
allow parties on site. Our motto is The oasis for QUIET student
living. At Sahara you are guaranteed a quiet environment. If anyone
violates the rules, the residents can call the owner, Ted, no matter
what time of day or night. And he will drive down to the building to
make sure the violators understand that the policy is really enforced.
When students move into Sahara, they get Teds cell phone AND
home phone numbers, you know, just in case the cell phone runs
out of battery right when someone needs to call. All residents are
encouraged to call Ted if they feel uncomfortable about anything.
That sort of attitude is not something that you will get from the
corporate-owned high rise competition.
In case you think our no party policy means no fun, you should
know that Sahara has an activity director who organizes many
group activities sponsored by Sahara where the residents get an
opportunity to get together and do fun things as a group. For instance
at the time of this writing, for the month of October, we took our
residents to Mt. Lemmon for the October Fest, Sabino Canyon for a
13 mile hike, Tucson Meet Yourself event downtown, had a game
night on site with free food and refreshments, and a movie night. We
Sahara is also the only student building that provides hotel

accommodations on site, where visiting family and friends can stay
when they come to visit our residents. The hotel also accommodates
professors, researchers, workshop attendees and many groups of
international students that are placed at Sahara by the University.
We treat our residents like they are expensive works of art in
a museum. Our gated community is protected with an infrared
beam system that alerts the owner with an automatic cellphone call
if someone trespasses by climbing over the walls. Our 80 security
cameras record all events at
the perimeter of the building
and in the public areas.
And our staff who live on
site are ready to respond if
required. These are some of
the reasons why in our 10
year history we have never
received a Red Tag from
the police department.
Offering shuttle service to and from the campus is now standard
practice for a lot of buildings, but we do it every half hour from
7 AM to 7 PM, on every school day.
At Sahara, you can enjoy the privacy of having your own studio
apartment for a lot less than a single occupancy room at the Residence
Halls, or to share an apartment at one of the high rise buildings with
people whose lifestyles may not be compatible with yours.
While we admit we are not for everybody, nor do we want to be, there
is a lot more that you should know about Sahara before you decide
what your choice of student housing should be.
Check out our website and find out why Sahara has
become more popular each year as the word has
spread that you can have a safe and quiet environment
and still have fun.

UAs Big A
ANTHROPOLOGY CELEBRATES
Founded by Byron Cummings, the renowned school
and Arizona State Museum host special events
By Mike Chesnick
When Byron Cummings came
to the University of Arizona in 1915
to start what is now the School of
Anthropology, UA President Rufus
B. von KleinSchmid showed him
a storage area and reportedly said,
Heres the museum, go to it.
Cummings not only got to it, but
he made anthropology a focus of the
Arizona State Museum and the university. By 1932, the department at
UA included all four subfields of
anthropology archaeological, sociocultural, linguistic and biological.
This remains a hallmark of UA
Anthropology, says Diane E. Austin,
the schools director, especially
as some (national) programs and
disciplines have become narrower
and narrower in focus.
Austin and more than 100 faculty
members are celebrating the UA

For more information: arizona.edu.anthro100th
departments centennial this year

with several celebrations and tours in
September and October, culminating
with a December alumni colloquium
on the School of Anthropologys past
and future. The National Research
Council ranks UA as one of the best
programs in the United States.
Our practical application of
anthropology to problems of
human health and medicine,
language and cultural preservation
and revitalization, and migration
and settlement in the face of
environmental change are making
a difference in the lives of people
around the world, Austin said.
And it all started 100 years ago,
when Cummings left the University
of Utah, where he was the head of
Archaeology and also organized the
schools first football team. When
Cummings arrived in Tucson, there
were only 463 students and 70 faculty
Turns 100
members at the university.
But the Classics professor, who
also taught Latin and Greek, quickly
developed the UA into a leading
archaeological field school with
dedicated camps in Eastern Arizona
that persisted for years, including the
Kinishba Ruins on the Fort Apache
Indian Reservation.
One of his first three archaeology
masters graduates in 1928 was Emil
W. Haury, who excavated the massive waterworks of the Tucson areas
early desert farmers, the Hohokam,
and helped create the new scientific
field of dendrochronology, or treering studies with UA astronomer
A.E. Douglas. Haury became one of
the pre-eminent archaeologists of
the 20th century, said former UA
director Raymond H. Thompson, who
spoke at the Arizona State Museums

Clara Lee Fraps (Tanner) and Florence M. Hawley (Ellis) also received
masters degrees in 1928, and both
stayed on at UA as instructors with
Haury for salaries of $1,500 each. All
three helped Cummings improve the
museum, which began in 1893.
In its early years, the museum
moved to different sites on campus,
including what is now the Forbes
Building. It was Haury who helped
put the museum in a new Roy Placedesigned brick building across the
UA Mall from the current Arizona
State Museum. The current facility
just northeast of University and Park,

opened in 1925 and served as the UA

DID YOU KNOW?

The UA School of Anthropology gave
rise to the UA Press in 1959. Byron
Cummings, the departments first
director, first wrote to the Arizona
Board of Regents in 1927 asking if
the university could establish its
own printing and publishing house.
Eleven other departments at UA had
their origins in Anthropology.
anthropology museum in the
Southwest. Visitors can see renowned
collections of American Indian
basketry, Southwest Indian pottery,
Navajo textiles, Mexican folk masks
and other objects.
Visitors can also take tours of the
University Indian Ruin on Tucsons
east side, a 13-acre historic property
that encompasses the central part
of a Classic period Hohokam village
occupied between A.D. 1150 and 1450
and archaeological research facilities
built by the Civilian Conservation
Corps between 1935 and 1937. Dorothy
A. Knipe donated the core of the
Indian Ruin to the UA in 1934, Austin
said, with the condition it be used
to provide an outdoor laboratory for
training UA archaeology students.
Tumamoc Hill, a Hohokam
site west of downtown, also is a
UA Anthropology site, along with
the Mission Garden downtown.
The garden is a re-creation of the
Spanish Colonial walled garden that
was part of historic San Agustin
Mission and features heirloom plants
representing the areas 4,000-year
agricultural history.
How does Austin see the next 100
years of anthropology at UA?
In this interconnected world with
growing pressures on environmental
systems and human societies,
anthropology and anthropologists
have much to offer, she says. " I see
our school retaining its core and at
the same time evolving and changing
to meet those needs.

Barefoot in the Park by Neil Simon
Marroney Theatre
Will newlyweds Corie and Paul survive
the freezing weather, all the uninvited
guests at their
5th floor walkup apartment
and each others
mismatched
temperaments?
Or will they
follow Cories
advice: Lets
not get divorced.
Lets just kill
each other.
In one of Neil
Simons earliest
Broadway hits,
hip versus square makes for a hilarious
romantic comedy.

Psycho Beach Party by Charles Busch
Thursday-Saturday 8 p.m.; SaturdaySunday 2 p.m.
Think Gidget, Frankie and Annette beach

suspense thrillers. Think 1962. Chicklet
Forrest, a teenage tomboy, is desperate to
be in with the Malibu surf crowd. Unfortunately, she also has a tendency towards
split personalities.

this heart in my mouth is called home
Directed by Melissa Thompson
Thursday-Saturday 8 p.m.; SaturdaySunday 2 p.m.
This devised piece was created specifically
for the UA Studio Series and explores the
search for a sense of belonging and the
ways in which we create for ourselves the
spaces of safety and comfort. What do
we think about when we imagine a soft
place to land? Are our families by blood
or by choice? And above all, what is it that
makes home home?

Fresh Idea
URBAN FARM FLOURISHES
David Gilmore photo
At Tucson Village Farm,

a UA and county
program, kids and
adults can grow, pick
and eat healthy food
farms goals of teaching kids how to

grow and prepare fresh food and
empower them to make healthy life
choices.
The greatest thing about working here is having a child, or an adult
for that matter, harvest a carrot,
says Elizabeth Sparks, a UA faculty
member and the 4-H extension agent.
When they pull the carrot out of the
ground, they are totally surprised;
they werent expecting it. And then

when they taste itafter properly
washing it, of coursethey cant
believe how good it tastes.
The farm offers five programs
for youths, including Lil Sprouts,
Growing Forward K-12 Agriculture
and Nutrition Program, Digging
Deeper Middle and High School Service Learning Program, 4-H Healthy
Living Ambassadors and Farm Camp.
By Mike Chesnick
Just a short drive north from the
UA campus sits Tucson Village Farm,
where thousands of youths have
helped the University of Arizona and
the Pima County Cooperative Extension turn a barren lot into an urban
garden oasis in the last five years.
One of the farms biggest fans does
not get much bigger: the First Lady.
You guys are leading the way.
You are doing great work! Michelle
Obama said about the Tucson Village
Farm, 4210 N. Campbell Ave., just
south of the Rillito wash.
The First Ladys campaign to fight
childhood obesity with a better diet
and exercise fits in nicely with the
24
Kids learn how to grow and harvest food at the Tucson Village Farm, near North Campbell
Avenue and East River Road. Norma Jean Gargasz/UANews photo
experiment and may offer that again

in the fall.
Tucson Village Farm plans to host
its sixth-annual Harvest Festival in
mid-November, a free event with
healthy cooking demonstrations
and samples, a farmers market, live
music, food trucks, a petting zoo and
other activities for kids.
We had more than 2,000 people
attend last year. Its so fun and
educational, Carter says.
Monitor the farm website or Facebook page for the festival's date and
time. The farms Facebook posts offer
lots of information, including tasty
recipes and available produce, including peppers, tomatoes, potatoes,
okra, squash, garlic, onions, eggplant,
greens, herbs and melons. The farm
planted pumpkins in July, which will
be ready for Halloween and Thanksgiving this fall.
People should come to the farm to
see food growing in its natural state,
Sparks says. Right in the middle of
town, they can come to our U-Pick
market and harvest their own fresh
vegetables to take home. Plus, it helps
a good cause, shopping or donating
to the farm, because it provides
educational programs for youth.

for sign-up information.
Weve changed a lot of peoples
minds about vegetables, says Sparks,
who oversees operations of the farm.
We see it time and time again, people saying, Oh, my child doesnt like
kale and they turn around and their
child is wolfing down a kale salad.
You dont have to be a kid to enjoy
Tucson Village Farm.
Visitors can pick their own produce at market prices every Tuesday.
The U-Pick runs from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
in the fall, 3 to 5 in the winter and
5 to 7 in the summer (check the
farms Facebook page for details). Its
best to wear close-toed shoes and
bring a reusable bag if possible.
You also can volunteer on Monday
mornings (8:30 a.m. to noon, earlier
in summer). Email the farm at
volunteertvf@gmail.com for the full
list of opportunities.
Anybody can come out and
volunteer, although its hopeful
to have a heads-up, so there is
meaningful work for people, says
Leza Carter, founder of the farm and
program coordinator.
Carter said the farm sold produce
on some Saturdays in the spring as an
Tucson Demonstration Gardens
The Master Gardener program, run by the county and UA,

ZONA ZOO LOUDER THAN EVER
Thirteen years after getting
its nickname, UAs rowdy student
section earns national honors
Students make some noise and hold up a big-head photo of Stanley Johnson at McKale Center last season.
By Mike Chesnick
A Team. McKale Maniacs.
Lutatics. Bat Cave?
In November 2002, judges
considered those names and
hundreds of others in a contest to
name UAs student section at McKale
Center on the eve of the No. 1-ranked
Wildcats home basketball opener
against Western Kentucky.
Thankfully, former student
senator Peter Wand says now, the
panel picked a name submitted by
Jennie Won, a junior Marketing
major. She combined Zona, one of
the teams national nicknames during
its 1997 national title run, with Zoo,
inspired by the fans' rowdy nature.
And so Zona Zoo was born.
Wand, with help from then-UA
associate athletic director Scott
MacKenzie and student senator Andy
Hottovy, rushed to design and print
the Zoo logo on about 2,000 T-shirts
and give them out free to students
with season tickets before the opener.
We were leaning toward the
Lutatics, says Wand, referring to
then-coach Lute Olson. While he appreciated the sentiment, Coach Olson
28
took the high road and explained that

he wanted this student section to last
for decades, not just for the remainder of his tenure, and advised us to go
with the Zona Zoo.
We also saw the value of a name
that could be used at other sports,
and we settled on the Zona Zoo.
Indeed, the section became a big
hit at UA football games, too, and
coach Rich Rodriguez and basketball
coach Sean Miller along with players
have credited the Zoo with helping
them win games.
The section has gained national
fame, being featured on ESPN
GameDay and being named the 2015
Student Section of the Year by the
National Collegiate Student Section
Association. Zona Zoo beat out
Floridas Rowdy Reptiles, and UA
students accepted the award in June
at Indiana State.
(The award) was awesome, says
Inyene Udoinwang, the current Zona
Zoo executive director. The Zoo is
so dedicated lining up hours before
tip-off, singing Bear Down at the top
of their lungs, and keeping the energy
all game long.
Gonzaga learned about that energy
Photo courtesy Arizona Athletics
the hard way last Dec. 6 when one of

its players facing the boisterous UA
student section missed three straight
free throws with six seconds left in
overtime and Arizona up by three.
Zoo members waved white balloons,
screamed and stomped.
(The player) stood up to the line
and I was like, He has no chance
against us, former Zoo executive
director Jacob Borcover told the
Arizona Daily Star.
Added Udoinwang: The Zoo was
so loud and intimidating that we
made (Byron) Wesley air-ball a free
throw! He was so nervous. We fed off
that and ended up winning.
If a free-throw shooter misses,
the Zoo will yell, Nice shot, Woody.
Zoo members also hold up big heads
of players and celebrities, turn their
backs when the opposing lineup
is announced and shout bounce,
bounce and pass at opposing players at the start of a half.

HOW TO BECOME A
ZONA ZOO MEMBER
Go to http://zonazoo.wix.
com/zonazoo and sign up.
Membership for both football and
basketball games is $150. You
can also get information at www.

So, for football, Zona Zoo members wake up, dress up in their red
Zona Zoo shirt, and head to the mall
with their friends to the Zona Zoo
tailgate. After theyve filled up on free
food and won some free stuff, they go
to Arizona Stadium and wait for kickoff. Youre going to be yelling for a
win. Its an incredible feeling.

roar to disrupt opposing offenses, or

carrying Wilbur Wildcat through the
crowd on his back. The Zoo came up
with a new chant before kickoff, with
members putting their arms around
each other, swinging back and forth
and chanting Zona.
Both student sections unfurl a gigantic Zona Zoo banner over heads in
the crowd to start the second half, but
Udoinwang explains how game day is
different in football and basketball:
The Zona Zoo showed up early at McKale to celebrate ESPNs College GameDay.
For basketball, you put on your

favorite UA apparel and head to McKale early to wait in line. Once your
Cat Card is scanned, youre power
walking to find the best seat. Bring
Em Out blasts through the arena
and the team jogs out and the Zoo
is rumbling; it feels electric. Youre
bouncing on your heels by tip-off.
Zona Zoo membership to see both
basketball and football games is $150,
and students must present their Cat
Cards at the gate. Admittance for both
is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
But in basketball, only the first 2,990
Zoo members who reserve seats online will get into McKale.
Udoinwang, from Phoenix, became a Zoo patron during freshman
orientation.

I wanted to learn the cheers and

see every win possible, she says.
Buying my Zoo pass was one of my
best decisions.
Back in 2002, Jennie Won told the
Arizona Daily Wildcat, I think the
name Zona Zoo will visibly unite the
student section.
She was right, says Wand, now a
law partner at Lewis Roca Rothgerber
LLP in Phoenix, recalling the Zoos
2002 debut against Western Kentucky
after he and others delivered the free
shirts and a program with information about the Zoos common chants.
As game time approached, we
werent sure anyone would even wear
the Zona Zoo shirts, much less create
the kind of intimidating home-court
atmosphere we were trying to foster,
Wand says. Our fears were quickly
erased when the students started
pouring into McKale about an hour
before tipoff wearing their Zoo shirts
many with their faces painted and
signs in their hands. ...
The students were great, and the
Cats beat the Hilltoppers by 39.
What if Wand and the panel had
picked the "Bat Cave," a studentsection name suggested by then-UA
guard Jason Gardner?
After some initial laughter, Jason
made it clear that he wasnt kidding
and spent more than a few minutes
arguing in support of his entry,
Wand recalls. While we appreciated
Jasons contribution to the panel, the
rest of us couldnt figure out what the
Bat Cave had to do with basketball
in Tucson, Arizona.

Amighi. The architecture of worship

is its ability to interrupt time and create
stillness. The act of shrine building is an
ancient human compulsion. Amighi will

Monuments We Can Live With Steve
Kurtz. This lecture is grounded in the
premise that the zenith of authoritarian
cultural production is the monument.
Found worldwide, these public nuisances
function as concrete reinforcements of
sameness, the inherent good of the status
quo, and the centralization of power. This
lecture asks if monumentality could be
reconfigured in a manner that would lend
the form to more democratic tendencies
that reinforce difference and distributed
power. Steven Kurtz is a professor of art
at the State University of New York at
Buffalo and a founding member of Critical
Art Ensemble (CAE).
Species of Exceptionalism: The
Borders of Art History and American
Studies in the Anthropocene Alan
Braddock. Since the 1960s, scholars in
Art History and American Studies have
made significant strides in opening their
disciplinary borders to new interpretative
methods and human demographics. Yet,
for most scholars in both of these fields,
one border remains more or less intact
and inviolable: the species border. This
presentation highlights some recent and
encouraging border crossings. Alan C.
Braddock is the Ralph H. Wark Associate
Professor of Art History and American
Studies at the College of William & Mary,
where he teaches courses on the history
of art, ecology, and animal studies.

advantages compared
to the rest.
Student housing properties offer many choices depending on your budget. But few offer
safety, comfort, modern amenities, quiet environment, AND a low price. Yes, our lower
monthly rents include all utilities, satellite TV hookup, and high-speed Internet.
Compared to the dorms:
Sahara offer many advantages compared to the dorms. While dorm rooms are just rooms
Sahara studio apartments have their own private baths and kitchens. Whether you select
single or double occupancy, you will be shocked by how much you can save compared to
the dorms. When you consider that Sahara is only 1 mile west of the campus and offers free
shuttle service every half hour, and free bicycles for you to ride, living at Sahara really is a
no-brainer. How much will you save? Check our web site and click on Floor Plans and Rental
Rates and then on Sahara Versus UofA Rates.
Compared to privately owned student properties:
At Sahara, you can rent a studio Apartment and live by yourself for a lot less than you would
have to pay for a bed and bath in one of the new High Rise buildings. Or if your budget is the
most important consideration, we can match you with a roommate so you will pay about 1/3
of what they would charge you at one of the High Rises.
There are other apartment buildings that also offer lower rates than the dorms and the High
Rise Towers, but none offers the range of amenities and services that Sahara does. Some offer
beautiful grounds but their beauty is only skin deep. Read the reviews about the apartments
you are thinking of renting. One place to check is www.ApartmentRatings.com. The
reason Sahara has such high ratings compared to most other buildings is that Sahara is
the only major student property in Tucson that is locally owned and owner managed on
a daily basis.
Here is a list of some of our amenities and services:
Our famous No Party Policy creates a

quiet environment 7 days a week.
Sahara sponsors social events on-and
offsite, and has recreational facilities
to encourage exercise, games, and fun
Sahara studios: 2 to 2.5 times larger

NOW STARRING AT FLANDRAU
By Mike Chesnick
Meet the Trilobites is not a new
Hollywood movie, but the family in
this script is pretty darn interesting.
A family of nearly 20,000 species,
that is.
Through February 2016, the
UAs Flandrau Science Center and
Planetarium is hosting the exhibit,
Meet the Trilobites Arizonas
First Inhabitants, that displays
fossils from across the world. Long
before the dinosaurs ruled the
earth, trilobites ruled the oceans
for 270 million years. Classified as
arthropods with a hard shell and
jointed limbs, they ranged in size
from less than an inch to nearly
three feet in length and were ancient
relatives of crabs and lobsters.
Look around Arizona, especially in
IF YOU GO
What: Meet the Trilobites
Arizonas First Inhabitants
When: Through Feb. 6, 2016
Where: Flandrau Science Center and
Planetarium, northeast corner Cherry
Avenue and University Boulevard.
Admission: Adults $7.00, children 4-17:
$5.00, children 3 and under free,
senior/military/college students
(with ID) $5.00
An exhibit of earths first

inhabitants: trilobites
the Grand Canyon, and you may see
trilobites. They are found in layers of
sedimentary rock all over the state
because around 400 million years
ago, much of Arizona was covered by
warm shallow seas.
Trilobites are fascinating creatures and have told us so much about
the geologic record and geologic
time, says Shipherd Reed, Flandraus
marketing and communications
manager.
The changes and adaptations in
trilobite populations across millions
of years are a fossil road map for
many fields of science from geology
to plate tectonics to evolutionary
biology. There are 20,000 different
species of trilobites in the fossil
record the most diverse group of
any animal, scientists say.
Robert Hazen, a leading trilobite
collector, and his wife, Margaret,
donated or loaned many of the
specimens in the UA exhibit. Hazen, a
mineralogist and astrobiologist with
the Carnegie Institution for Science,
wrote The Story of the Earth, a
history of the planet that highlights
the interplay between the evolution
of life and minerals. Specimens
from another trilobite hunter, Jake
Skabelund, also are showcased.
Im partial to the Psychopyge
elegans specimen because it has
gracefully curving spines on either
side and a broadsword snout and
looks very exotic, Reed says.
Beside horseshoe crabs, lobsters
and shrimp, trilobites other
contemporary arthropods include
scorpions, centipedes, spiders, ants
and beesinsects frequently seen in

center and Planetarium
the Sonoran Desert.

The Paleozoic Era, which lasted
roughly 300 million years, is often
called the Age of the Trilobites because the anthropods dominated the
primordial oceans during that time.
So what happened to them? At
the end of the Paleozoic Era, about
240 million years ago, the last of the
trilobites vanished along with 90
percent of all marine species during
the Permian Extinction, the largest
mass extinction in Earths history.
Scientists are still debating the
reasons for that extinction. Theories
include a catastrophic event
brought on by massive volcanism or
a sudden release of methane from the
sea flooror gradual events driven by
climate change, such as shifts in sea
levels and ocean circulation and arid
weather.
DID YOU KNOW?

The name trilobite means three
lobes, or sections of the body. All
trilobites, whether they are small
(less than an inch) or big (nearly
three feet in length) have a central
lobe that runs from the head to the
tail, and a lobe on either side.
Trilobites survived much longer
than most forms of life on earth
about 270 million yearsand lived
through mass-extinction events
that wiped out many other ancient
creatures.
Today, the closest relative of the
trilobites are horseshoe crabs.
Trilobites are called the butterflies
of the sea, with 20,000 species
of fossils found across the world,
including the himalayas.
