DIR fails in Senate vote Tues.night

CCNY venture starts

Stanford plans a joint program
By IVY NGUYEN
MANAGING EDITOR

The Division of Internal Review (DIR) faced a major setback at the Undergraduate Senate meeting Tuesday night; a bill to establish the group also failed after more than an hour of debate. The DIR, a brainchild of ASSU Executive Michael Cruz 12, is intended to evaluate ASSU Executive and Senate initiatives, as well as monitor how the groups which receive ASSU spending use that money. The bill failed to pass the Senate due to a controversial confidentiality clause, as well as disagreements over the scope and language of the bill. Major problems within the bill were that it contained vague language about the scope of the DIR, as well as a clause that allowed it to keep certain information confidential, which is prohibited by the ASSU constitution and bylaws. Senator Alon Elhanan 14 argued this point and questioned why the bill had such a clause at all. Senator Ben Laufer 12 also argued that the scope of the DIR was poorly defined. In a tense exchange, Laufer and bill author Appropriations Chair Brianna Pang 13 engaged in a back-and-forth over whether Laufer agreed with the intention of the DIR, and then over what specific issues he took with the bill. Acting Senate Chair Dan Ashton 14 sought to curb discussion after an hour; however, arguments persisted for another 30 minutes as the Senate was unable to agree on DIRs role and the specific language of the bill. After the Senate took a 10minute recess to make adjustments, a modified bill was then discussed. The new wording of the bill changed the DIR from a one-year program to a one-quarter pilot program. However, this final bill failed a vote, nine for and five against. The bill was then tabled for further discussion and voting next week. Bill author Pang 13 said in an interview after the meeting that the confidentiality clause was included to prevent disclosure of financial information that would be sensitive, such as credit card information or account numbers. However as the bill is currently written, the DIR has access to all documents that any student would have, which is all ASSU documents that dont contain sensitive financial information. The bill doesnt allow the DIR to view documents that any other student would not have the ability to view.

Union Underground a combination of a free used-clothing store and a student art gallery, located in the basement of Old Union reopened last Friday after a three-and-a-half-week trial period at the end of last spring quarter. The project is the result of collaboration between multiple sustainability-focused groups on campus, including Students for a Sustainable Stanford (SSS) and the Green Living Council (GLC). The project

recently formed a partnership with the ASSU underneath the Chair of Sustainability, Sarthak Misra 13. Co-founders Nicole Gaejtens 12 and Nicole Greenspan 12, members of SSS and GLC respectively, first developed the idea for the space when they took an Alternative Spring Break class together about social entrepreneurship. We had to develop a plan for a social enterprise, and we were thinking about a thrift store, Greenspan said.

Stanford University, the City University of New York (CUNY) and City College of New York (CCNY) announced Tuesday morning the creation of Stanford@CCNY, a joint venture serving as an East Coast test site for Stanfords undergraduate program in entrepreneurship, technology and related areas. More commonly known as City College, a senior college within the CUNY school system,CCNYs partnership with Stanford is part of the Universitys response to city Mayor Michael Bloombergs call for a top-quality engineering and applied sciences campus in New York City. The conversation exploring the possibility of collaboration with CCNY began in July when New York City issued its request for proposal (RFP) for an applied sciences campus,according to University spokeswoman Lisa Lapin in an email to The Daily. School of Engineering Dean Jim Plummer and University President John Hennessy visited CCNY last month to further explore the possibility of a partnership, Lapin said. Lapin added that CCNY will not be partnering with the University in its proposal to build a campus on Roosevelt Island. While this collaboration with CCNY is the first NYC-based partnership that the University has announced since it declared an interest in submitting a proposal to build the applied sciences campus, Lapin said that the possibility of partnering with other institutions remains open. We have had many conversations

By ILEANA NAJARRO The Stanford Law School Immigrants Rights Clinic, the National Immigration Law Center and other immigration rights advocacy groups collaborated on a report titled Deportation without Due Process, which was published last September. Jayashri Srikantiah, law professor and director of the Stanford Immigrants Rights Clinic, said the report hoped to draw attention to the federal process of stipulated removal. Through the stipulated removal program, which was initiated in the early 2000s, immigrants held in detention could sign off an order for their own deportation without a hearing with an immigration judge beforehand. According to the report, these immigrants are often either unaware of what other legal options they may have or are not informed of the orders true implications. Srikantiah said the program was first revealed at a liaison meeting three years ago. We had heard at one of the informal meetings between advocates and the immigration authorities that there would be a new program that was being rolled out, Srikantiah said. Thats all we heard that there would be a new program and it would be called stipulated removal.

The Stanford Daily School of Medicine professor emerita dies at 89

By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Dora Goldstein, School of Medicine professor emerita in molecular pharmacology, died on Oct. 2 after a fall in her Palo Alto home.She was 89. Goldstein was a leading researcher on alcoholism, studying the biological effects of alcohol and helping to explain the mechanisms behind tolerance for and dependence on the drug. In 1981, the Research Society on Alcoholism honored her with its Award of Scientific Excellence,and in 1992,she received the Jellinek Memorial Award, given each year to an individual who has made a substantial advancement to the field of alcohol studies. In addition to her scholarly research,she blazed a path for women in medicine she was accepted to Harvard Medical School in the schools first class of women and was involved in both civil rights and gay rights movements. In the 1960s, she served as vice president of her local NAACP chapter,and in the 1990s,she was on the national board of Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays. Goldstein was born in 1922 in Milton, Mass. She briefly studied chemistry at Bryn Mawr College,but left to perform research for the U.S. war effort when World War II broke out.After the war ended, she was accepted to Harvard Medical School, where she met School of Medicine professor emeritus Avram Goldstein, whom she studied under at Harvard and would later marry. The couple joined Stanfords School of Medicine faculty in 1955. Dr. Goldstein was dedicated to supporting women faculty in the School of Medicine, the schools dean of research Ann Arvin said in an obituary on the School of Medicines website. A memorial was held in honor of Goldstein on Oct. 9.

commodates. Any sections of the pipe that do not meet acceptable safety standards during these test conditions will be replaced with new pipe that has already passed a pressure test, according to the PG&E website. Line 132 runs from Milpitas to San Francisco and crosses Stanford property when it follows Page Mill Road, Junipero Serra Boulevard, a corner of the golf course and Sand Hill Road to reach I-280. Stanford PG&E customers who might be affected by the test were sent a letter by the utilities company. You may smell gas during this process and at other points during testing work, the letter stated. This is safe and expected. In addition to the natural gas

odor, you may hear noise associated with testing activities and see PG&E field teams in your neighborhood, the letter said. Our crew may use traffic safety cones and/or detour signs, testing equipment such as above-ground pipes and valves or machinery such as excavators or water tanks. California state regulators required PG&E to perform this pressure testing on all sections of pipeline that have no documented test results following the 2010 San Bruno gas pipeline explosion that resulted in 38 destroyed homes and eight deaths. According to investigators, the incident resulted from an electrical glitch in a Milpitas gas-line terminal that raised the lines gas pressure. PG&E is also working on rebuilding a pipeline crossing at San Francisquito Creek. Recent rains have delayed the scheduled completion date by two weeks.

Stanford takes part in energy-efficiency challenge

By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Stanford committed to help raise $65 million along with 31 other higher-education institutions as part of the Billion Dollar Green Challenge, which was launched publicly on Tuesday at the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) Conference in Pittsburgh. This pot of money will be invested in energy-efficient projects, called green revolving funds. According to a statement on the organizations website, the challenge was inspired by a report published last February by the Sustainable Endowments Institute, which showed that existing green revolving funds have had a 32-percent median annual return of investment. The Billion Dollar Green Challenge asks our higher education systems to invest in green revolving funds to support the campus sustainability movement, AASHE executive director Paul Rowland said in a statement. AASHE supports The Challenge in that these funds will help institutions become more sustainable and will help the higher education community understand the commitment they are making to a just and sustainable future. Stanford will join other institutions such as Harvard University, Dartmouth College and Arizona State University. Harvard is rolling over a $12 million Green Loan Fund, which was established in 1992 and had an average annual return on investment of 29.9 percent. The goal of the Challenge, as its name implies, is for a cumulative amount of $1 billion to be eventually invested into these green revolving funds. Fahmida Ahmed, associate director at Stanfords Office of Sustainability, said in the statement that the Universitys fund has already financed over 200 small and large efficiency projects on campus, with an average, simple payback period of just four years.

with potential partners, and those conversations continue; so we do not rule out that we might have additional collaborations with other institutions, Lapin said. The CUNY partnership is separate from the Universitys proposal to build a graduate applied science campus on Roosevelt Island of New York City. The University, which proposes to expand the campus to eventually accommodate 100 faculty and 2,000 students, will submit an official proposal to the New York City Economic Development Corporation by Oct. 28. The city will make a decision by the end of the calendar year. Though the collaboration began in response to the applied sciences campus RFP, Lapin said that the future of the Stanford@CCNY partnership remains independent of Stanfords bid. The undergraduate curriculum will start right away, and we anticipate it will be a longstanding collaboration, regardless of the success of our applied sciences bid, Lapin said. We would look forward to a long and fruitful association with CCNY and CUNY. Should Stanfords proposal for a New York campus be accepted, Stanford@CCNY will offer joint BA/MA and BS/MS programs created by faculty from both schools. Some CCNY students will be able to pursue a co-terminal MS degree from Stanford along with their BS degree from CCNY. Stanford would offer its academic program at CCNY until late 2016, when the proposed New York campus would be completed. Stanford would renovate and temporarily use up to 20,000 square feet of classroom space at CCNY and space for

up to 20 Stanford faculty. After this point, CUNY and CCNY would retain permanent use of the renovated facilities. President Hennessy has not yet commented on what would happen should another school be awarded the right to build the applied sciences campus. The total cost this venture would incur to Stanford has yet to be determined, but Lapin said that working in CCNY space is ideal for the two schools. There are costs and also savings, and additional non-monetary benefits to both Stanford and CCNY,she said.If we were to rent and configure temporary space anywhere in the vicinity of Manhattan, there would be a cost. Under this collaboration, the University will also host CCNY students each summer in its Research Experience for Undergraduates Program. Another project, Stanford@CCNYs innovation program, is being funded by a five-year, $10 million grant from the National Science Program to Stanfords Technology Venture Program, Lapin said. We believe there is tremendous potential through our partnership with CUNY to bring Stanfords curriculum to some of the best and brightest students in New York and to help them go on to make significant economic contributions to New York City and New York State, Hennessy told the Stanford Report. City College is located in Harlem on the island of Manhattan and has a 35-acre campus spanning 11 blocks from 130th Street to 141st Street on Convent Avenue. It is the oldest of CUNYs 23 colleges and universities. Kristian Davis Bailey contributed to this report.

oarding the flight to Lima, Peru that would ultimately connect to Santiago, I realized I was in a much different part of San Francisco International Airport than the little Southwest cranny I usually passed through after my vacations. I was unsure which language to speak, but as I passed through the gate, I felt as though I were crossing a border.And by the time I reached my seat, I knew that Spanish was the optimal choice for blending in. I told myself that I chose the Espaol option when watching Pirates of the Caribbean and Yes! Man on my flight to practice my Spanish, but secretly the reason was that I didnt want to be labeled as a gringa by my Latino seatmate or the stewardess when the subtitles appeared. I dont think either of them was fooled. After a seven-hour nighttime sojourn in Lima and a second flight, I finally landed in Santiago, where I was greeted with extensive paperwork and confusion at the customs gate. The customs officer spoke impeccable English, but my ineptitude at international travel and tendency to get flustered at all the wrong times threw me off anyway. Outside taxi drivers clamped onto new arrivals and hawked their services with impressive determination. Fellow Stanford student Susha Roy 13 and I found our way to the recommended shuttle service and departed

for the hotel where orientation would take place. Walking the streets of Santiago for the first few days was an experiment in self-consciousness. Chileans appeared to be quite a heterogeneous mixture of people, and so why shouldnt a group of Americans easily blend in? But that wasnt to be, as the cultural nuances of posture, dress code and most importantly, language, are impossible to disguise. Marching by in our 28-person contingent, chatting and laughing loudly in English, we may as well as have had the word extranjeros (foreigners) stamped across our foreheads.The more fashionably dressed and Spanish-speaking Chileans hurrying along the sidewalks gave us knowing looks as we passed, sometimes even grinning and chuckling to their companions as they noticed our conspicuous group. Ringing the doorbell of my soon-to-be apartment home, the door was flung open by a small, merry-looking woman with huge brown eyes, setting off the tinkle of the wind chimes attached to the handle.Exclaiming in delight, my new host mother showered me with welcome besitos (kisses) and led me to my room, laughing all the way. My room was small and bright, and best of all, led outside to a balcony overlooking an energetic alley and facing another apartment building. The walls of the adjacent apartment were white, just like those of mine,

Faulty priorities
S
tudents who choose to explore campus will notice many changes to the built environment around them. From the stateof-the-art Knight Management Center, to the award-winning Arrillaga Family Dining Commons, to the long-awaited Bing Concert Hall,ambitious new construction has reshaped the University. Living as we do in an area prone to major earthquakes, it should please all members of the Stanford community to know that these new buildings are planned to withstand the worst shaking that the San Andreas Fault has to offer. However, it is somewhat less comforting to know that older structures known to be seismically unsound have been allowed to stand. Before the next time Stanford decides to replace the palm trees in front of the Arrillaga Alumni Center as it did last summer,the University should make certain that all of its structures are prepared for the inevitable quake that will one day rock the campus. The most conspicuous building known to be unsafe in the event of an Earthquake is Meyer Library. Dating from 1966, the library continues to serve as a focal point of academic life at the University despite being declared seismically unsound in 2007. Demolition of the library was scheduled for 2012, but in the intervening years, the University failed to make a decision regarding the future location of the material currently residing in Meyers East Asia Library. Though nothing has been set in stone, the University has achieved something of a consensus that the East Asia Library will move to a new home in the Graduate School of Business South building. Unfortunately, assuming that the Board of Trustees approves the move,the new space will not be ready until at least 2014. Demolition of Meyer library cannot even be scheduled before that date. Even if demolition proceeds quickly after Meyers contents are relocated, nearly a decade will have passed between the study that affirmed Meyers seismic vulnerability and the time when the building no longer endangers its patrons. Another notable structure that could present danger in the event of an earthquake is Searsville Dam, located far to the Southwest of the main campus in Stanfords Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve. Constructed over a century ago, the dam withstood the major earthquakes in 1906 and 1989 with only a few fingersized cracks appearing in the more severe 1906 quake that proved harmless and easily repaired. Judging from its past success and a recent seismological study touting its structural integrity, the risk from the dam does not stem from complete collapse, but from something rather more mundane. Searsville Lake, the reservoir created by Searsville Dam,has been filling with silt since its construction. The reservoir is now between 90 and 95 percent silt, with the majority of that accumulating during earthquakes and extremely heavy rains.A large earthquake could completely fill the reservoir with silt within a year, with unpredictable consequences for communities downstream. Proposals have been floated for removing the dam and for dredging the silt, but thus far debate over those options has been inconclusive. Whichever solution to the silting question is decided on, it will be far easier and likely cheaper as well to implement it over a longer time frame than would be available if an earthquake were to force decision makers hands. Decisions to demolish, retrofit or construct buildings should never be made lightly. Nevertheless, the long delays that have accompanied debate over the futures of Meyer Library and Searsville Dam have put safety and property in jeopardy.Though less glamorous than a new concert hall, eliminating the aforementioned threats must be done in a timely fashion. Stanford has been on the cutting edge of both earthquake science and earthquake preparedness for decades. Lets keep it that way.

ne of the most difficult parts of job searching as a Stanford student is finding something that makes you feel like your time at Stanford was worth it. Because we all work so hard, theres this immense pressure to do something amazing and academic with your education, and then win a Nobel Prize for it and then win a Pulitzer Prize for the book you write about winning the Nobel Prize. Dont get me wrong a life in academia is meaningful and fulfilling. Its just not for everyone.What ultimately makes people happy is doing what they love, and that might not be anything academic. So this week, Im going to suggest a career outside of the proverbial academic box that is rewarding, completely legitimate and more than anything,a lot of fun. This weeks topic: the beer cicerone. I fully believe that a hobby can become a career, and one of the most popular hobbies on campus is drinking beer.So for those of you who enjoy your occasional (or not so occasional) brewski, listen up: you could spend your life getting paid to drink beer and tell people if its good or not. Now this

might come as quite a shock to the frat boys on campus, but beer can actually taste good.And when paired with the right food,it can taste really good.As a beer cicerone essentially a wine sommelier, but for beer it will be your job to identify these good beers (hint: Natty Light is not one of them) and share these opinions with the rest of the beer-loving world. The life of a beer cicerone is not just one of drinking tons and tons of beer, although you will get to do that as well. Cicerones get to travel around the world,tasting different local beers and attending various culinary festivals. Because part of a cicerones job description involves pairing beer with food,you also get to enjoy the world of fine dining. Most cicerones, like their sommelier counterparts, choose to work in the restaurant industry, where their knowledge is increasingly in demand as beer becomes an ever-more important aspect of the culinary world. The Cicerone Certification Program was started in 2008 in response to this growing interest in finer beers and the art of brewing. Beer is now appreciated as a complicated beverage with many varieties and taste lev-

els and is most often not served out of a keg. Some even say beer is the new wine the food pairings are just as exact, the flavor descriptions just as elaborate and the snobs just as snobby. And unlike wine, beer is the alcohol least affected by the current economic downturn, making it the best place to be if youre going into the alcohol industry (or should I say, remaining in the industry) post-graduation. In fact, this is such a new field that there are only 210 certified cicerones and three master cicerones in the world. Three. Just for comparisons sake, there are 180 master sommeliers worldwide. This should give you some indication of just how many job opportunities there will be for the fourth master cicerone. But you cant just go to a bar,order a beer and call yourself a cicerone. The certification process is exhaustive and involves three levels of certification. The first is a certified beer server, of which there are over 5,000 worldwide; this also requires the least

The silent voices of Stanford

ne of the reasons I chose to write a column for The Stanford Daily is that too often I feel that my voice has been silenced at Stanford; so, the idea of having a platform where I can openly say what I think without being interrupted or overpowered by dissenting opinions is appealing (albeit scary). This may seem like a bold statement to make, especially if you know me, because I am someone who freely shares my opinions with others. However, I do not always act this way; Im often quiet in new situations until Ive gained a feel for the space and people and have an idea of the ways in which Im allowed to behave. In spaces like the classroom or with people that Im not that close to, Im frequently pretty quiet even if theres a lot running through my mind. In those situations its not that I dont have a lot to say, its just that my opinions are not as welcome and are less likely to be listened to. Im sure a lot of you can relate to the feeling of staying quiet even when you have things to say. I want

to use this column to explore this not as an artifact of my individual personality (which in many cases it is), but as part of a larger process that happens on this campus. The process of silencing others is subtle and often not apparent to those who do not experience it or who are perpetrating it. I want to talk about how this has happened to me to try to raise awareness of how it happens and to encourage students to think about how they may be minimizing the voices of others. My experience is mostly related to my gender, and although peoples voices are silenced on campus for a variety of reasons, I can only share my personal experiences. It doesnt happen through people telling me that Im a stupid girl with nothing useful to say; instead, Ive been told that my opinions are not as welcome with subtle messages sent through social pressures, compounded experiences and societal expectations. Ive been in numerous classes in which, during group presentations, the men overrun the presentations

and, when taking questions afterwards, the guys in the group always seem to have something to say in response. I become drowned out in their rush to answer and cant get a word in. When people raise their hand and talk in lecture, they are judged. Because of this, I dont often speak up in class (nobody likes being judged, but women are taught to place a higher premium on likability). So unless Im aware that lots of other people also share my question, Im not that likely to raise my hand and ask it. Instead, I go talk to the teacher after class. At lunchtime conversations with members of my dorm, Ive often had the ideas that I bring up vehemently argued down. I dont like arguing (and women are censured when they are aggressive), so I would much rather give up to avoid an argument than stick it out to convince everyone that I am right. Ive been in groups where I make a suggestion for how to proceed and it flies by under the radar. A few minutes later a guy will make

the same suggestion and the group will take it up and begin discussing it. This is not an experience that is unique to me; sociology papers have been written on this phenomenon. So yes, in a very literal sense, no one is silencing me because I am the one choosing to keep quiet: I am being passive when I could be assertive, I am deferring to others and I am neglecting to speak up. However, I am not making this choice in a vacuum. I am penalized judged, looked down upon, talked about and ignored when I speak too loudly or monopolize conversations, fight for my place and my voice to be heard. So what do we do about this? Ive been following much of the news about the Occupy Wall Street movement. One of the things that Ive found most intriguing is the participants use of an idea called the progressive stack. When people have opinions to voice, they get in line (the stack) and wait to talk. However, in a progressive stack, people do not speak in a first-come,

first-served basis; people get to speak in an order that amplifies the voices of traditionally marginalized populations.Women and minorities are moved to the front and men, especially white men, are asked to wait before they can speak. This is an idea that Stanford could use a little more of. There are lots of events and organizations in which encouraging members of marginalized populations to speak up more would add to the ability of the organization to serve all of its members. In terms of our daily interactions and lives, this cannot be literally implemented, but it is still a valuable concept to keep in mind. By trying to progressively stack our daily interactions and directing our attention to members of marginalized populations more often, maybe we can find ways to listen better to those being ignored.

Aqu la gente le gusta vivir mucho, said Man, my host mother.Here the people like to live. I think Mans favorite word is lindo, or beautiful.

Its an infectious exuberance - and I find it not only in Man but outside in the streets, at the parks dotted with couples and spurting fountains, at the Brazilian dance classes on the way up the winding Cerro San Cristbal road. The university sector is vibrant, students lounge about in restaurants or bars, dressed in neon colors and floral patterns as summer approaches. In testimony to the recent protests, passionate quotes against the privatization of education span a nearby wall. Swirls of graffiti on the same wall depict skulls eating pencils and books alongside a man walking backwards the students argue that the current education systems are steps backwards for the government. From my humble perspective as a foreign observer, Santiago is not a city that encourages passivity, but one that embraces passion and amor (love) of the vida linda (beautiful life).

Graffiti on the walls of Santiago reminds passersby of the recent wave of student protests for comprehensive education reform and demands for quality free education, profit-free private schools and a revised education-loan system.

UNION

Continued from front page

After the class ended,they started talking to ASSU officials about their idea, and discovered several other Stanford students had expressed similar interests in establishing a thrift store on-campus, including Shaan Chugh 14. According to Chugh, former ASSU President Angelina Cardona 11 informed him about the project. We [Chugh, Greenspan and Gaejtens] randomly had this one meeting in Old Union and were kind of shocked that we had the same idea, Chugh said. According to Gaetjens, the biggest hurdle the group faced was finding space on campus that would accommodate the thrift store a search that began back in February. They considered placing the store in Tresidder Memorial Union, but discovered they would have to pay rent for the space. After talking to the managers of comparable on-campus thrift stores at colleges like UC-Berkeley and Clark University, they realized it would probably take a year before the project broke even, Greenspan said. Cardona then suggested the basement of Old Union as a possible space and put Gaetjens and Greenspan in touch with Jeanette Smith-Laws, director of operations and student unions. But Gaetjens said that instead of requesting a permanent space, they asked for a trial period. The trial period was basically, Give us a chance to prove that we deserve a space,Gaetjens said.The idea was . . . that [University officials] would have the right to take the space away from us if we didnt do a good job. Gaetjens and Greenspan said they emailed several campus emailing lists to ask for student artists to donate or lend their works for the gallery. They obtained items for the thrift store primarily through the student organization Stanford Nourish and from students who were going abroad for the quarter. They said they received approval from Smith-Laws to use the space a week before their planned opening date last spring. We were like, We are going to take this opportunity and do it, Greenspan said. Chugh said they made a large marketing push for the opening last spring in hopes of gaining traction among students for the project. According to Gaetjens, more than 300 students came to the store on opening day, and 233 individuals checked out at least one item from the store during its trial period. Both of the cofounders said the feedback was strong enough that they were able to keep the space. The plan, however, departed slightly from the organizers original intention.They said they had initially planned to monetize the store by selling the used items. Customers are now able to take items from the store for free and are allowed a maximum of three items per visit. According to Greenspan, the change came because of zoning laws

that prohibit financial transactions from taking place in all areas of Old Union except The Axe and Palm. Honestly, the way that it has evolved, the free-store model has been working really well, which we are glad about, Gaetjens said. We had been really afraid of [not charging for items] in terms of basically creating chaos. But with the item limit and people being really responsive and donating,it has actually been working out really well. Over the summer, a $3,000 grant coming from the Green Fund a

REPORT

According to Jennifer Koh, lead author of the report and former teaching fellow at the Law School, the Immigrants Rights Clinic then decided to file a Freedom of Information Act request to obtain information about the program. Their request was denied, prompting litigation drafted and run by members of the Stanford clinic, including Srikantiah. Its because of our work under the Freedom of Information Act and our litigation that we finally have a lot of information about the program, and what weve learned is very, very troubling, Srikantiah said. The Law School handled the litigation on behalf of the National Immigration Law Center, the National Lawyers Guild San Francisco Bay Area Chapter and the ACLU of Southern California. Eventually, the suit resulted in more than 20,000 pages of records elaborating on the programs implementation and revealed that over 100,000 immigrants had already been subjected to it.The

pool of $30,000 that is divided out among student-driven sustainability projects on campus by the Department of Sustainability and Energy Management (SEM) was used to purchase an iPad and a scale. The iPad is now used as a store inventory and as a tool for checking out items. The scale weighs donations. According to Gaetjens, they plan to use these measurements to create a visual thermometer of how much waste the store is diverting from landfills. The project recently formed a team of 10 volunteers who will become part owners of the space, and graduating seniors made donations last spring. Greenspan said that Smith-Laws painted the walls of the art gallery over the summer to make it more inviting. Attendance at the reopening on Friday trailed that of the opening last spring. Gaetjens estimates approximately 100 individuals attended the reopening, and 80 took items. Chugh said this was probably because the group chose not to market the event as strongly as they did in the spring. This time, we knew it was going to be a store, and its going to be here for weeks to come, Chugh said. It didnt make sense [to strongly publicize the reopening] because then people get the wrong impression that its an event. Both of the co-founders said they hope to expand the store, so they can accept larger donations like couches, mini-fridges and televisions, which they are currently not able to keep in the room because of space limitations.They also said they hope to become a permanent fixture on the campus. We have no guarantee that we wont get kicked out of the space, Gaetjens said.We also have no indication . . . that we are getting thrown out. The more student support that is voiced to the administration, the better, she added. Union Underground is open 12 p.m. through 2 a.m., every week from Friday to Sunday.

report, available online on the Stanford Law School website, serves as a synthesis of the acquired records. Now you have on the website what is really the countrys first fully comprehensive examination of the stipulated removal program, Koh said. Koh said the report sheds light on the constitutional issues that arise from the stipulated removal program, including how immigrants due process rights were short-circuited because of how the program was implemented. According to the report, examples of such short-circuiting include poor quality of paperwork translation, no proper explanation of what rights immigrants forfeit by signing the order and, most importantly, no access to lawyers or legal support. The vast majority of immigrants who are signing these orders dont have lawyers, so they have no idea that they might actually be able to be released from detention on bail, Koh said. They may not know that theyre actually eligible to fight their deportation and have a chance to remain in the U.S. They dont know this because they dont have lawyers. She said the stipulation removal program adds another obstacle for

immigrants in detention. Under stipulated removal, a person never has a chance to see the immigration judge at all because the idea is that you agree to your own removal without having a chance to go to court, Koh said. Along with revealing the details of the program, the reports also provides recommendations on how the federal government could change the programs implementation with no cost and under legal terms. One such recommendation includes having an immigration judge hold a brief hearing in order to determine if an immigrant fully understands the legal consequences of the order before anyone signs off on it. According to Koh, the report serves as a spotlight on a program that been hidden from public knowledge for over a decade. For all of us who are working in the immigration advocacy field, our work is motivated by a desire to see greater overall fairness in the process and to be able to see the laws implemented in the way they are supposed to be constitutionally fulfilled, Koh said.

The next level, a certified cicerone, is more demanding, requiring at least one year of work in the brewing or beer-serving industry in addition to being an already certified beer server. Lastly, becoming a master cicerone requires several years of experience in the beer industry and completion of an arduous two-day, 12-hour long test. Sounds rough, but

teph Curry successfully summed up Mondays news that the first two weeks of the 2011-12 NBA regular season had been canceled in one simple tweet #thissucks. While many of my friends here on campus saw commissioner David Sterns statement scrawl across the bottom of ESPNs news feed and shrugged their shoulders indifferently, I dont think that they realize the implications this has for the NBAs immediate future. For starters, dont think for a second that only two weeks worth of games will be canceled. The owners and players clearly are not on the same page, despite 11th-hour meetings attempting to come to a consensus over a new collective bargaining agreement and end the current lockout. We gave it a real good run and it didnt work, Stern said of the negotiations on Monday. Derek Fisher, Los Angeles Lakers point guard and president of the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), added to the conversation. Today was not the day to get this done, he said. Those two statements alone ought to be enough to scare all you professional basketball fans out there straight, because when two of the most important players at the bargaining table are giving excuses for not coming to an agreement without mentioning specifics and involving certain days being worse than others, the sides are likely very far apart. NBPA executive director Billy Hunter was likely playing some strategic tactic, as any of those involved in the nitty-gritty details always are, but his statement that there has not been a discussion about the next time the two sides will meet was rather ominous.

NBA lockout: #thissucks

There has been no discussion about next meetings.Maybe a month. Two months, he said. Your guess is as good as mine. But it might not matter what date anyone has in mind to resume negotiations.As the lockout drags on and on, I dont see how the owners will be motivated to try and salvage the season if they arent coming out on top. According to NBA Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver, 22 of 30 NBA teams lost money last year.That came out to $300 million total some $40 million less than the previous year,but still a staggering amount. And while some creative number-crunching is definitely going on in the owners camp (most experts agree that its more likely that closer to half the teams actually failed to turn a profit last season),there is no getting around the fact that the old bargaining agreement gave 57 percent of all Basketball Related Income to the players.That is the sticking point,before you even get into hard caps, soft caps, rookie scales, guaranteed deals or anything else if the owners dont end up with a much bigger slice of the pie,they wont hesitate to let the season go up in flames. And why shouldnt they? The players have truly been getting away with murder by current professional league standards. Look around; baseball and football are cash cows the NFL brought in more than a billion in profits (before taxes) in 2009, and the MLB about $500 million in 2010.The

a Quinta, Calif. was buzzing Tuesday as The Prestige at PGA West went down to the wire, and the anticipated showdown between No. 1 Stanford and No. 2 Oregon heated up in the final round.After trailing by ten strokes going into the final round, the mens golf team found itself just three strokes back of the Ducks for the team title on the back nine. The Cardinal couldnt quite complete the comeback, but still managed to gain some ground and finish in third place behind Washington in a solid field at just the second event of the season. Freshman Patrick Rodgers built on his first-place finish at the Illini Invitational with a three-round total 209, a good enough score to place him in a tie for 10th. Defending champion Andrew Yun slipped a little in the final round but still finished in a tie for 14th, partially thanks to a first round 66 that had him thinking about repeating on the Greg Norman course. But the second round saw several of the Cardinal fall

off the pace a bit.Rodgers couldnt match his first-round 69, shooting an even-par 72, and Yun matched him with a 72. Senior David Chung had six bogeys on his way to a 76, and only a spectacular round from sophomore Cameron Wilson who shot a 67 with six birdies and no bogeys during an 11-hole stretch kept the Cardinal from dropping beyond fourth place. All that was forgotten on the final day, however, as Stanford made a serious charge up the leaderboard. Chung was firing on all cylinders, playing the first 16 holes in five-under par, while Rodgers, Wilson and junior Steven Kearney were all in red figures at the turn. With its lead all but evaporated, however, Oregon showed why it will likely be the team to pose the biggest challenge to Stanford in the Pac-12. Under pressure, the Ducks responded, playing the back nine in six under par as a team to salt away a two-shot victory over the Huskies, eight shots clear of the Cardinal. I thought we played pretty well, coach Conrad Ray told GoStanford.com. Oregon has a really good team this year as does Washington and it just wasnt

GRIT ON THE GRIDIRON

New coach, same hard-nosed approach
By JACK BLANCHAT
DESK EDITOR

Late in last Saturdays game against Colorado, the Stanford football team led 27-7 and faced a fourth down on the Buffaloes 13-yard line. Instead of kicking a field goal to extend the alreadycomfortable lead, head coach David Shaw called for the offense to stay on the field. After junior running back Stepfan Taylor rushed over the left guard for three yards to extend the drive,quarterback Andrew Luck tossed an easy touchdown pass to junior fullback Ryan Hewitt to make the lead 34-7. The very next Cardinal drive, Stanford faced a fourth and goal at the one-yard line. Again, instead of taking the points, Shaw called for his running back to go over the left guard, and again, the Cardinal scored a touchdown. After the game, Shaw insisted that the fourth down calls werent piling on the opponent, but they were indeed trying to send a message to his own team. Attitude. Thats our attitude. If its close, with the line that we have, with the fullbacks that we have, with the tight ends we have, with the backs that we have, we should pick up anything thats less than fourth and three, Shaw said.Thats the kind of mentality we need to have up front in order for us to play the games the way we want to play them. With those two calls, the first-year head coach appeared to answer one of the biggest questions that Stanford faced coming into the 2011 season: would the teams tough attitude stay the same as it had been under former coach Jim Harbaugh? The answer is yes. [Coming into the season] this team, we were definitely trying to reinvent ourselves. Obviously coach Harbaughs gone, were under coach Shaw, everybodys trying to see what type of team its going to be. And we

flagged for personal fouls three times last week), Thomas says the team is constantly emphasizing not to let its emotions get out of control. We say all the time, Dont get emotionally hijacked. We play off each others high energy but at the same time, we dont want to put our teammates in a bad situation, he said. What happened at the Cal game last year was unfortunate, its a rivalry, its a big game, and it really did get the blood pumping, but we dont want to do anything to jeopardize our teammates. Thomas also said that he and the defense had adopted a catchphrase of their own this season opportunity for greatness. That is something that started last year with [former defensive coordinator Vic] Fangio and [defensive coordinator] Derek Mason, whenever we get a sudden change, its saying opportunity is knocking instead of oh shoot, a momentum change, he said. Despite one of his stars adopting the phrase, Shaw insists that its just unofficial, unlike the cruelty with character slogan. No, no, I loved that one, but we havent come up with any other mantras, he said. Weve just been concentrating on the process on what it takes for us to be a good team. The Cardinal will get a chance to put its toughness on the line once again this weekend against Washington State in Pullman,Wash. Contact Jack Blanchat at blanchat@ stanford.edu.

character but were also going to win with cruelty still resonates. Shaw, whose coaching career includes stops with the Oakland Raiders and Baltimore Ravens two teams known for their distinctive, tough attitudes said that it was much more than just the coaching staff manufacturing an image. The two most important things to have are the expectations for how tough and physical youre going to be coach Harbaugh did that and then you recruit guys that exemplify it, Shaw said. You cant preach it as a coach if you dont have guys that have it.You cant just make it happen, you have to have guys on the team that make it happen. Guys that are tough-minded like Andrew Luck, David DeCastro, Michael Thomas, Chase Thomas, Delano Howell, those guys exemplify that every day, so now when you bring a young guy in, you hear it from the coaches but you also hear it from the older players, and thats what the culture is, he added. Of course, that brash attitude can bring some backlash, like Harbaughs famous (or infamous) decision to go for two when leading by 27 points against USC back in 2009, or the pregame tension that flared into fisticuffs during last years game against Cal.

players, though, are receiving less than 50 percent of the income. In order for the NBA to catch up to either of those leagues would require the players to take a step back and realize that they can make more overall money in the future.If they agree to a slightly smaller share of the profits, the owners can reinvest, and the league can try and get back to the days when MJ, the Mailman, Larry Bird and Magic had fans tuning out football to watch basketball. But most importantly, remember that professional basketball is not the most popular sport today. The public already thinks the regular season drags on way too long, and many weighed in saying that they were glad to do away with some of the early games.And while people were suffering from football withdrawal in July and August,the same cant be said for basketball. So it will take a lot longer for the league to return to the same energy and buzz that an epic NBA Finals showdown generated,when Dirk single-handedly slayed the Big Three.

When a soccer coach wins three straight NSCAA Pacific Region Coach of the Year awards, grooms two Hermann Trophy winners in as many years, leads his team to consecutive College Cup Finals and fails to record a regular-season loss in 57 games well, you know theres something seriously fishy going on. Seriously. Two weeks ago, we were doing headers, said senior midfielder Kristy Zurmuhlen, and [head coach Paul Ratcliffe] told us that the proper way to head the ball is that you have to look like a salmon in midair, and leave your feet. So its kind of a running joke with us now, that every time someone goes up for a header, we say, salmon. Ratcliffe may not seem like the vocal type; compared with visiting coaches who, like him, are amplified by cavernous echoes off the expanded Cagan Stadium bleachers, hes rarely audible. But when the coach and the comic in him come together for his players to hear, it truly sticks. Hes quiet, but he definitely has a sense of humor, and we all get along really well, so its been great, Zurmuhlen said. Over the years, Ive learned a lot from him in terms of the type of soccer that he wants us to play, keeping the ball and working hard. I feel like Ive gained a lot of knowledge in terms of the right way to play the game. Teaching the right way to play soccer has earned Ratcliffe a 20169-26 record as a head coach, with 146 of those wins coming on the Farm. His teams have not had a losing season in conference play or otherwise since his first year in charge of the St. Marys program. How fitting for wins 200 and 201 to come against perhaps the biggest rivals of two different eras for Ratcliffe: USC, his archrival as a student-athlete, and UCLA, consistently Stanfords toughest Pac-12 competitor. Last Fridays dominant 3-0 performance by the Cardinal against the Trojans got Ratcliffe to the 200-win plateau, and with a shocking rout of the Bruins two days later, the team moved into excellent position to capture its third

When then-head-coach Joy Fawcett retired, Ratcliffe took over the program, but was offered the St. Marys job that same offseason. He never had the chance to coach a game for his alma mater, instead turning the struggling Gaels into a squad that would average 11 wins a season over his five years at St. Marys.

Ultimately there are so many great memories.

PAUL RATCLIFFE
Stanford hired Ratcliffe in 2003, and eight years later, he has not yet failed to take a Cardinal team to the postseason.Thats where, according to Ratcliffe, the biggest memories have been born. The first game where we won in the quarterfinal to go to the 2008 Final Four our first Final Four was always a memorable game, he said. Ultimately there are so many great memories: so many great games and goals, the kids that have come through here and the personalities that weve had. The only thing missing from Ratcliffes head coaching repertoire and, for that matter, the Stanford programs is clear: an NCAA title. Yet thats not the only thing Ratcliffe is working for on a day-today basis. I just want [the players] to play to the best of their ability, enjoy the games, enjoy the practices and work very hard, he said. But theres got to be a huge enjoyment factor there, and weve got to compete. Weve got to compete and represent Stanford. Its an amazing university, and I feel like Stanford deserves the best, and were trying to produce the best results for them possible. Contact Joseph Beyda at jbeyda@ stanford.edu.

conference title in a row. But its head coach is quick to deflect the credit. If I get to that 200th win, I owe them to all the players, Ratcliffe said leading up to the USC game. Theyre the ones that make things happen. I think Im very fortunate to be here and get the opportunity to coach such fantastic players, and the thing Im most proud of is that were attracting the best players in the country right now, he added. And not only soccer players, but great students as well. Ratcliffe first made his mark on the soccer world as a student himself, playing for the 1990 NCAA champion mens soccer team at UCLA.
