Students hurt in brawl

Shot fired, students hospitalized after assault at Halloween party

Two UA students received treatment at University Medical Center after they were assaulted at a Halloween party Monday night.

The incident occurred at a party at the 700 block of East Speedway Boulevard in the home of UA students Scott Lykke, Chris McCormick, Mike Schapker, Henry Schwartz, and Arizona Daily Wildcat reporter Ross Hager.

More than 75 people were at the party when a group of about seven men showed up around 12:30 a.m. and began stealing items from the house, said McCormick, a pre-communication junior. [Read article]

Football notes: Win equals awards for Johnson, Tuitama

With wins usually comes personal recognition, and following the Arizona football team's first conference win of the season, the awards keep coming.

Survey says Spanish sought?

Spanish is the new trendy language. Much like The Postal Service, the rhythms are catchy, the lyrics are hip and the sound is unique. Its listeners are also growing at an impressive rate.

It is to no surprise, then, that a member of our student government is currently touting a proposal to have the Arizona Daily Wildcat include Spanish articles.

"What a wonderful, novel idea," I initially thought. Majoring in Spanish myself, the thought tickled my soul and warmed the cockles of my bilingual heart. [Read article]

Artists are continually breaking the barriers between two-dimensional and three-dimensional art. Back in the day, artists only created pieces that could be classified as either a painting or a sculpture, but these days contemporary artists are constantly finding new ways to combine them, using various materials in innovative ways. Newer forms of art have emerged, like installations, which transform an entire space or room and can be experienced instead of just seen by the viewer. [Read article]

Are you scared yet?
That time of year is approaching once again. The days are no longer endless, and tank tops are being replaced with long sleeves. But along with chilly nights comes one juicy holiday.

Ghosts and goblins are not just a thing of our childhood. In fact, Halloween seems to get better as we reach our adolescence. We are no longer restricted to a two-hour window of trick-or-treating and parents forcing us to bed with the ultimate sugar high. Now, Halloween is yet another reason to party. [Read article]
