St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
On July 22, <strong>2010</strong>, the Department<br />
of Energy announced<br />
a $122 million award for a partnership<br />
between Caltech and the<br />
Lawrence National Berkeley Lab<br />
in Berkeley, CA to lead breakthrough<br />
research in cost-effective<br />
solar sustainable energy.<br />
These two collaborative sites<br />
in northern and southern California<br />
will collectively be known<br />
as the Joint Center for Artificial<br />
Photosynthesis (JCAP). JCAP is<br />
one of three Energy Innovation<br />
Hubs, integrated research centers<br />
that will implement a multidisciplinary<br />
team for advancement in<br />
energy technology and infrastructure.<br />
Leading the JCAP Fuels<br />
from Sunlight Energy Innovation<br />
Hub as Director is Nathan<br />
S. Lewis, the George L. Argyros<br />
Professor and Professor of<br />
Chemistry at Caltech, supported<br />
by Caltech’s Bruce Brunschwig<br />
and Harry Atwater and Berkeley<br />
Lab’s Peidong Yang. In addition<br />
to the main sites of Caltech and<br />
Berkeley Lab, other members include<br />
the SLAC National Accelerator<br />
Laboratory at Stanford, UC<br />
Berkeley, UC Santa Barbara, UC<br />
Irvine, and UC San Diego.<br />
The proposal for JCAP submitted<br />
to the DOE is the third<br />

se P t e m b e r <strong>27</strong>, <strong>2010</strong><br />
largest proposal in Caltech history<br />
after JPL and LIGO.<br />
“[It] certainly fits in Jean-<br />
Luc and Carol Chameau’s interest<br />
in sustainability as well as<br />
the establishment of the Resnick<br />
Institute announced a year ago.”<br />
However, Resnick Institute has a<br />
separate set of goals not congruent<br />
with those of JCAP, such as<br />
funding for scholarships to students,<br />
Brunschwig comments.<br />
The computer science building<br />
of Jorgensen Laboratory will<br />
be re-outfitted with equipment<br />
and workspace for the new research<br />
staff of JCAP. Harry Atwater’s<br />
Resnick Institute will also<br />
share part of the building.<br />
Specifically, JCAP aims to<br />
develop methods to generate fuels<br />
directly from sunlight, much like<br />
plants harvest light energy from<br />
the sun to produce chemical fuels<br />
from carbon dioxide and water in<br />
photosynthesis.<br />
“We will discover efficient,<br />
earth-abundant light absorbers<br />
and catalysts, better polymer<br />
membranes that are ion-conductive<br />
and yet gas-impermeable; and<br />
ultimately a functional integrated<br />
solar-fuel generator that operates<br />
under the sun with decent solarchemical<br />
energy conversion efficiency,<br />
” summarizes Peidong<br />
Yang, who will lead JCAP at<br />
the Lawrence National Berkeley<br />
Lab.<br />
JCAP’s mission is to demon-<br />
strate a scalable and cost-effective<br />
solar fuels generator without<br />
the use of rare materials that will<br />
produce fuels from sunlight with<br />
10 times more efficiency than<br />
current methods.<br />
“Among renewable energy<br />
resources, solar energy is by far<br />
the largest exploitable resource,<br />
providing more energy in 1 hour<br />
to the earth than all of the energy<br />
consumed by humans in an entire<br />
year,” states Lewis in a PNAS<br />
review of solar energy advances.<br />
Even biofuels severely reduce<br />
energy efficiency, as plants did<br />
not evolve to meet human energy<br />
needs.<br />
Beyond the goal for a working<br />
prototype, JCAP has proposed<br />
several research areas.<br />
The team proposes to focus<br />
on accelerated discovery of<br />
earth-abundant, robust materials<br />
to expand the existing range of<br />
available light absorbers, catalysts,<br />
membranes and other system<br />
components. Additionally,<br />
JCAP wishes to develop a highthroughput<br />
screening system for<br />
testing these newly discovered<br />
compounds for viability in the<br />
prototypes.<br />
“By end of 5 years, we hope<br />
to achieve a combinatorial systems<br />
ability, discovering a million<br />
compounds in a short period<br />

Report Exec Incident Pictures<br />
In the early morning of <strong>September</strong><br />
10, Caltech Security officers<br />
put a halt to a prank being<br />
carried out by five MIT undergraduates.<br />
The exact details of the prank<br />
are still under investigation by the<br />
Tech, as the two MIT pranksters<br />
that the Tech was able to obtain<br />
contact information for did not<br />
respond to an email inquiry and<br />
Caltech Security Chief Gregg<br />
Henderson was unsure as to what<br />
the prank would be. According<br />
to the Security incident report,<br />
the two Caltech Security officers<br />
involved found a parked Budget<br />
moving truck outside the east<br />
double doors of Baxter Hall, an<br />
unlocked roof door, and several<br />
personal items-- five handcrafted<br />
boxes, a large white banner with<br />
red writing, and a sign labeled<br />
“Cambridge, Mass”.<br />
“Security did what they should<br />
have done, since there is no protocol<br />
for dealing with MIT pranks,”<br />
said Vice President for Student<br />
Affairs Tom Mannion, who has<br />
been heavily involved in many of<br />
Caltech’s previous pranks. “But<br />
One of the pranking items found in room 17 of Baxter Hall was<br />
this black and white MA banner of uncertain purpose.<br />
if MIT says they’re coming and<br />
they’re doing something that I<br />
think is okay, I’ll probably let<br />
them do it.”<br />
This MIT almost-prank is<br />
Photo: \\was_pro_watch\reportexec$\PICTURES/2573.JPG<br />
the latest in a healthy prank rivalry<br />
between the two schools.<br />
In 2005, Caltech re-ignited the<br />
MIT-Caltech prank war when a<br />
group of Caltech undergraduates<br />
handed out pro-Caltech t-shirts at<br />
MIT’s Campus Preview Weekend<br />
(CPW). In spring of 2006, MIT<br />
retaliated by stealing the Fleming<br />
Canon by posing as a moving<br />
company, and Caltech retrieved the<br />
canon the week after. In spring of<br />
2007 during MIT’s CPW, Caltech<br />
distributed fake MIT newspapers<br />
around the public Cambridge<br />
streets near the MIT campus, after<br />
being removed from the MIT campus<br />
proper by MIT’s Security. In<br />
2008, Caltech undergraduate Tim<br />

Permanent pre-Health<br />
Advisor Hired<br />
By Yang Hu<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
Last January, the pre-med community<br />
at Caltech was worried after<br />
the sudden departure of former<br />
pre-med adviser, Angela Wood.<br />
An interim replacement, Melanie<br />
Hamon, carried on pre-health affairs<br />
until James Berk was hired<br />
in June as the new pre-health<br />
adviser to fill the position of prehealth<br />
advising at Caltech.<br />
“After Angela left, very suddenly,<br />
all the pre-meds were a<br />
bit confused in terms of what to<br />
do next and why Angela would<br />
leave in the first place,” remarked<br />
Caltech Pre-med Association<br />
(CPMA) President Vivian Yang.<br />
Over the summer, Berk made<br />
plans to initiate several programs<br />
to benefit students in pre-health<br />
careers. Each term, Berk plans to<br />
offer a minimum of four events<br />
– two focused on practical issues<br />
related to Medical/Health School<br />
applications and adjustment, and<br />
two focused on professional issues<br />
related to health careers in<br />
today’s society. Planned events<br />
start in October with a talk on the<br />
rise of geriatric medicine given<br />
by Caltech alumnus Dr. Wayne<br />
Chen, who currently works at<br />
the Keck School of Medicine at<br />
USC. Also in October will be a<br />
workshop focused on succeeding<br />
in interviews for medical<br />
school and other health professions.<br />
In November, Berk plans<br />
to have a workshop on volunteer<br />
and research opportunities,<br />
as well as a forum focused on<br />
issues related to public health.<br />
He is also continuing the wellreceived<br />
Health and Medical<br />
Professional Issues Forum that<br />
Director of Caltech Career Development<br />
Center (CDC), Lauren<br />
Stolper, initiated last year.<br />
Berk's self-described goal is<br />
to provide timely information<br />
to pre-health students on career<br />
management, and to establish<br />
contact between Caltech's prehealth<br />
students and individuals<br />
already working in health professions.<br />
He looks to expand the<br />
existing preceptorship program<br />
for next summer by adding new<br />
sites for clinical shadowing and<br />

New Admissions Director<br />
Begins Tenure<br />
By James Wu<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
This summer brought some<br />
changes to the Admissions Office<br />
at Caltech. The Assistant Director<br />
of Admissions, Cameron Pinckley,<br />
left Caltech in order to take<br />
a senior position at Dartmouth<br />
College.<br />
The new Director of Admissions,<br />
Jarrid Whitney, officially<br />
started on <strong>September</strong> 1. He had<br />
already moved to Pasadena from<br />
Santa Clara University in August<br />
with his wife and infant daughter.<br />
He currently lives right next to<br />
Caltech, only a block away from<br />
the athletic center.<br />
Director Whitney, who asked to<br />
be called Jarrid, was kind enough<br />
to give the Tech an interview on<br />
very short notice last week. I sat<br />
down with him to discuss his philosophy<br />
on admissions, changes<br />
to the admissions office, and<br />
wind mills.<br />
As a half Native American,<br />
Jarrid has a personal interest in<br />
reaching out to under represented<br />
groups. As there are many qualified<br />
members of underrepresented<br />
groups that are not aware of the<br />

opportunities Caltech offers, one<br />
focus of his would be outreach to<br />
minority groups who have traditionally<br />
been underrepresented<br />
in STEM fields. However, he<br />
was adamant that he would in no<br />
way reduce the quality of incoming<br />
students. “I want to increase<br />
our profile with underrepresented<br />
groups, but I’m also going to be<br />
honest with them. I’m not going<br />
to push someone in just to get<br />
them in.” He pointed at Caltech’s<br />
Core and well known challenging<br />
course load as hurdles some students<br />
from underserved communities<br />
would face.<br />
Jarrid reiterated many times<br />
that he still has a lot to learn about<br />
the Caltech community before he<br />
could carry out his duties effectively.<br />
When asked if any changes<br />
might be happening to the admission<br />
office in general or to the admissions<br />
policy, he stated frankly<br />
that “I don’t know enough about<br />
Caltech right now to even suggest<br />
any changes.”<br />
However, he likes what he’s<br />
seen so far.<br />
“I just got back from frosh<br />
camp, and it was an eye opening<br />
experience. The frosh were<br />
collaborating, working together.<br />
I don’t think I ever saw a frosh<br />
alone,” said Jarrid.<br />
pre-health<br />
continued from page 1<br />
research opportunities. “In connection<br />
with CPMA, I believe<br />
that our students will have many<br />
great opportunities to learn, interact,<br />
and increase their status as<br />
candidates for health profession<br />
programs,” said Berk.<br />
CDC Director Stolper supervised<br />
the competitive hiring process<br />
for Caltech's new pre-health<br />
advisor. Stolper and Director of<br />
Employment at Caltech, Dlorah<br />
Gonzales, prescreened candidates<br />
for the pre-health advisor position<br />
and selected a group of finalists.<br />
Each finalist was interviewed by<br />
a group of pre-health students<br />
chosen by Caltech's student government,<br />
staff of the career center,<br />
and a number of administrators<br />
who have direct experience<br />
working with students. According<br />
to Stolper, “[students] make<br />
the most impact in the interview<br />
process in terms of attracting candidates<br />
to Caltech.”<br />
“One of the most compelling aspects<br />
of the interview process was<br />
the chance to meet with several of<br />
the Pre-Health students to answer<br />
questions about my background<br />
and plans for the future,” Berk<br />
said in an email. “This also gave<br />
me the chance to hear some hear<br />
about their reasons for pursuing<br />
a health career; I was impressed<br />
by their intelligence, maturity and<br />
passion for their career choices. I<br />
left the experience knowing that<br />
Caltech is where I wanted to work<br />
long-term.”<br />
Formerly the adjunct instructor<br />
at Azusa Pacific University<br />
and Westwood College, Berk was<br />
chosen for his experience with<br />
students, training as a counselor,<br />
and enthusiasm for working with-<br />
Caltech students, according to<br />
Stolper. He has accumulated over<br />
ten years of experience with college<br />
students in a variety of roles<br />
including counseling, teaching,<br />
“I’ve also never seen such engagement<br />
by students. The frosh<br />
were so attentive at the orientation<br />
workshops. They were discussing<br />
high level ideas. The professors<br />
were like rock stars. When a professor<br />
would finish a talk, they<br />
were immediately swarmed by<br />
students asking questions. I’ve<br />
never seen that anywhere else,”<br />
he continued.<br />
While change in the admissions<br />
office will certainly continue to<br />
be a source of concern for many<br />
members of the community, it’s<br />
clear that many members will<br />
find a kindred spirit in Jarrid. In<br />
high school, he won the top award<br />
for his design of a more efficient<br />
wind mill at a state science competition.<br />
He’s also an enthusiastic<br />
flyer, automobile restorer, and<br />
motorcyclist.<br />
and advising.<br />
“Over fifty individuals initially<br />
applied for the process,”<br />
said Stolper. “It is very clear that<br />
students are seeking [Berk] out<br />
for advice, enjoy talking with<br />
him, and know that he is there<br />
for them and will provide them<br />
with support as they make career<br />
decisions.... [Berk] has a focus on<br />
pre-health/pre-med advising, but<br />
he spends half his time working<br />
with students interested in a range<br />
of career fields, both graduate and<br />
undergraduate students.”<br />
Although long-term ties with<br />
medical schools only come with<br />
time, Berk has been hard at work<br />
building ties with admission committees<br />
at major institutions across<br />
the country. “Networking is a key<br />
component of my position,” says<br />
Berk. “I will be a strong and active<br />
advocate for students in the application<br />
process, helping schools to<br />
understand the academic rigor of<br />
the Caltech curriculum, and how<br />
that increases our students’ attractiveness<br />
as applicants.” Berk<br />
plans to attend the American<br />
Medical Student Association’s<br />
Pre-med conference this October<br />
at UC Davis. “There I will meet<br />
with admissions representatives<br />
from major institutions face to<br />
face, and further building their<br />
ties with Caltech,” says Berk.<br />
Caltech's pre-health students<br />
are relieved knowing that a new<br />
adviser has been hired. “I feel like<br />
the frosh have a great support system<br />
in terms of their pre-med career<br />
now. When I was in a personal<br />
meeting with Berk, he gave me<br />
a list of everything he had worked<br />
on during the summer, and I was<br />
amazed he could have so much<br />
initiative and contacts within the<br />
medical school admissions already.<br />
I think he is very suitable<br />
for this position and many premeds<br />
appreciate everything he's<br />
already done,” remarked CPMA<br />
President Yang.<br />
Berk’s office is on the 3rd floor<br />
of the Center of Student Services<br />

Black pranked MIT’s Mystery<br />
Hunt when he distributed a fake<br />
first question that directed MIT<br />
students to a Caltech transfer<br />
phoneline.<br />
The more recent prank attempts<br />
at both schools have been stopped<br />
by Security officers. Last year<br />
during Thanksgiving weekend, a<br />
team of ten Caltech undergraduates<br />
organized a large-scale prank<br />
on MIT, in which Caltech had allegedly<br />
bought MIT and renamed<br />
it “Caltech East, a new School of<br />
the Humanities”. The pranksters,<br />
led by former Caltech undergraduate<br />
Anthony Chong, had almost<br />
finished putting up a “SOLD”<br />
banner and a “Caltech East” banner<br />
on MIT’s main building in<br />
addition to relabeling all of the<br />
nameplates along MIT’s Infinite<br />
Corridor, when an MIT custodian<br />
got worried by the suspicious activity<br />
and called the police. The<br />
group of pranksters still managed<br />
to distribute a few copies of a<br />
fake newspaper, available online<br />
at east.caltech.edu.<br />
“The most disappointing part<br />
said Mannion. He plans to talk<br />
to MIT’s administration or student<br />
government to see “if we can<br />
get some reciprocity” in promoting<br />
pranks, which might involve<br />
looking the other way when<br />
prankers come to campus if given<br />
advance notice. “Bottom line<br />
is, it’s really cool that we caught<br />
MIT doing this. But maybe we<br />
can help them in the future if they<br />
would like.”<br />
“It would be nice if we set up<br />
some protocol,” said Chong,<br />
who organized the incomplete<br />
“Caltech East” prank. “Pranking<br />
is a significant undertaking, and<br />
it’s very easy to underestimate<br />
the amount of effort involved.<br />
It’s a bit of a pity [that pranks get<br />
stopped by Security].”<br />
th e Ca l i f o r n i a te C h<br />
was when the real cops showed<br />
up,” said Caltech undergraduate<br />
Jordan Theriot, who helped with<br />
the Thanksgiving prank, co-wrote<br />
the Thanksgiving prank newspaper,<br />
and is now in charge of the<br />
funding for Caltech’s Pranking<br />
Club. According to Theriot, the<br />
group of Caltech students had to<br />
plead with the police in order to<br />
take a picture of the half-flung<br />
“SOLD” banner on the building<br />
before taking all but a few<br />
of the prank newspapers back to<br />
Caltech.<br />
MIT’s recent almost-prank<br />
seems to be a retaliation against<br />
Caltech’s uncompleted “Caltech<br />
East” break prank. “I’m glad<br />
MIT retaliated in any way,” said<br />
Theriot. “I want to see Caltech<br />
come up with something great.”<br />
However, the way in which Security<br />
has responded to the pranks<br />
recently has some of Caltech’s<br />
most avid prankers worried.<br />
“The [pranking] game’s on,<br />
but we have had two shutdowns.<br />
We need to see what we can do<br />
to promote a pranking culture,”<br />
Security foiled Caltech’s prank to rename MIT as Caltech East<br />
School of the Humanities. over last year’s Thanksgiving break.<br />
There is a fine line between promoting<br />
rivalry and ruining the fun<br />
involved with eluding the police.<br />
“Part of the fun is doing something<br />
challenging and getting<br />
around Security,” said Chong.<br />
Still, the future of Caltech<br />
pranking looks bright. Caltech’s<br />
incoming freshman class has already<br />
pulled off four pranks, including<br />
a human pacman on the<br />
Olive Walk and a large banner<br />
across Millikan. “I see so much<br />
potential in this frosh class,” said<br />
Theriot.<br />
An organizational meeting for<br />
Caltech’s Prank Club will be held<br />
soon. Please contact Jordan Theriot<br />
with any questions.<br />

MOSH moves to<br />
Olive Walk<br />
By Tina Ding<br />
ed i t o r-in-Ch i e f<br />
Over the summer, the west room<br />
of the Tech Express on the Olive<br />
Walk was cleaned out and renovated<br />
to become the new Master<br />
of Student Houses(MOSH) office.<br />
In <strong>September</strong>, current MOSH<br />
Geoffrey Blake moved from his<br />
old office in the Center for Student<br />
Services to the new room.<br />
“I wanted to be closer to the<br />
students,” said Blake, “By being<br />
right on the Olive Walk, students<br />
can more easily drop in and<br />
chat.”<br />
With an office in the center of<br />
the undergraduate Houses, Blake<br />
plans to initiate activities to encourage<br />
more student faculty interactions.<br />
“We’ll get some tables out there<br />
during lunch time, allowing faculty<br />
and students to eat together,”<br />
said Blake. Additionally, Blake<br />
and his wife, Karen, plan to use<br />
the Lloyd kitchen to make snacks<br />
and desserts for students after<br />
dinner. He will be available on<br />
most nights after dinner.<br />
About fifteen years ago, before<br />
the Tech Express was built,<br />
the MOSH office also resided in<br />
its current location. After speaking<br />
to former MOSHes Sunny<br />
Chan and Christopher Brennen<br />
who voiced the benefits of having<br />
MOSH close to the Houses at that<br />
time, Blake began efforts to reinstall<br />
the office on the Olive walk.<br />
To reduce the size of the Tech<br />
Express, copying and faxing are<br />
no longer available.<br />
The MOSH serves as the faculty<br />
mentor to the residential associates<br />
of the Houses, and meets<br />
with them weekly. The more “fun<br />
and major role” of the MOSH<br />
is encouraging student outings<br />
and faculty student interactions.<br />
These activities range from taking<br />
students to musicals and plays<br />
to hosting manners dinners and<br />
activities at the MOSH house, located<br />
at 500 South Hill Avenue.<br />
The MOSH also works with<br />
IHC on Rotation and other House<br />
traditions.<br />
Blake has served as the MOSH<br />
for one year, and is also the faculty<br />
chair for freshmen admissions.<br />
He is the Professor of<br />
Cosmochemistry and Planetary<br />
Science, and teaches Ch21b and<br />
Ge133. “My research group<br />
definitely sees less of me,” commented<br />
Blake on taking up the<br />
position on top of his faculty duties,<br />
“but [as MOSH,] you can’t<br />
make the difference without putting<br />

Over the summer, Caltech<br />
Housing replaced the ricketty<br />
front entrance doors to the North<br />
houses, Marks, and Braun. The old<br />
combination locks have also been<br />
replaced by cardreaders, which<br />
were activated approximately<br />
four weeks ago. The cardreaders<br />
are different from the magnetic<br />
cardswipes in the South houses<br />
and Avery house, and require updated<br />
student ID cards. Students<br />

To help combat the history of<br />
bike theft at Caltech, security has<br />
installed a new bike cage. The<br />
cage, located on the second floor<br />
of the Holliston Parking Structure,<br />
is available to members of<br />
the Caltech Bicycle Program and<br />
costs $50 per year.<br />
Caltech had problems with<br />
bike thefts on campus in the past,<br />
although there has been a definite<br />
decrease in burglary in the past<br />
few years, according to Gregg<br />
Henderson, chief of Caltech Security.<br />
However, according to<br />
a security report released in the<br />
summer, there were six bikes reported<br />
stolen between August 4th<br />
and August 25th. Furthermore,<br />
just a few weeks ago, a bike was<br />
stolen from Avery despite the use<br />
of a steel U-lock.<br />
Opinions of this solution have<br />
been mixed, at best. One undergrad,<br />
who would prefer to remain<br />
anonymous, said, “I think it’s<br />
ridiculous for security to charge<br />
$50 to keep your bike safe instead<br />
of doing the job that we are paying<br />
them to do.”<br />
Henderson defended the cage,<br />
“I totally agree with that, but I<br />
don’t have enough personnel to<br />
they checked in this fall.<br />
The renovations were done in<br />
the interest of security, according<br />
to Housing director Peter Daily.<br />
"The North house doors were<br />
1960s vintage. We now have<br />
doors with newer technology that<br />
work with the cardreaders," he<br />
said.<br />
While Daily declined to discuss<br />
specific costs, he acknowledged<br />
that the project, which<br />
replaced five entrances over the<br />
past twelve months, was "very<br />
expensive." The money financed<br />
the cardreaders as well as the<br />
cardswipe-compatible doors.<br />
ensure that they’re there at every<br />
moment. That’s virtually impossible.<br />
Yes, we do charge, but it<br />
was very expensive to build. I really<br />
wish we could be everywhere<br />
at all times, but we can’t.”<br />
Undergrad Scott Yantek feels<br />
his money would be better spent<br />
elsewhere: “I’d buy a good lock.<br />
Two bikes are safely locked at night in the bike cage<br />
on the second floor of Holliston Parking structure.<br />
No plans are on the table to<br />
update the older cardswipes, but<br />
"from my understanding, all new<br />
installations will be similar to the<br />
new cardreaders," said Daily.<br />
The door replacements were<br />
part of a broader renovation program<br />
by Housing. Contractors installed<br />
new electrical equipment<br />
in the North house basement, increasing<br />
the power to each North<br />
house room, and are in the process<br />
of installing energy-efficient air<br />
conditioners in the North house<br />
rooms. Two weeks ago the carpet<br />
in the North houses was replaced.<br />
Furniture in Avery, Ricketts, and<br />
My bike costs $90. It would be<br />
cheaper for me to just buy a new<br />
one every two years.”<br />
Alan Menezes, who had his<br />
bike stolen this year, was concerned<br />
about location: “It seems<br />
kind of pointless since you have<br />
to walk to Holliston to get your<br />
bike.”<br />
There are<br />
sixteen assignedparking<br />
spots<br />
a v a i l a b l e<br />
in the bike<br />
cage. The<br />
spots are on<br />
a first come<br />

basis. For<br />

the North houses is also being updated.<br />
"We've been busy this summer<br />
making sure that quality-of-life<br />
issues are done well," said Daily.

continued from page 1,<br />
of time. We hope to find more semi-conductors<br />
than in all of history, screen them<br />
to find ones we think are viable, and find<br />
10 new ones that meet our needs. We hope<br />
to develop a library of synthetic ways to<br />
stick catalysts onto a surface,” explains<br />
Brunschwig, one of JCAP’s primary overseers.<br />
Finally, JCAP will simultaneously develop<br />
capabilities for linking together light<br />
absorbers, catalysts and membrane units<br />
on multiple scales from the nanoscale to<br />
the commercializable macroscale.<br />
Cost-efficiency is, of course, an important<br />
consideration. Brunschwig remarks<br />
that “the device has to be almost free because<br />
gasoline is very cheap. So one of the<br />
design features is that we will not use precious<br />
metals such as platinum.”<br />
Along with a strong central management,<br />
a necessary strategic aspect of the<br />
JCAP proposal was the geographical restriction<br />
of collaborators within California<br />
with the purpose of maintaining communication<br />
and accountability between departments.<br />
Each site will host scientists from<br />
other member sites for short term and long<br />
term visits. Researchers will also utilize<br />
video conferencing developed by Caltech’s<br />
EVO Collaboration Network, which will<br />
enable highly accessible communication<br />
such as from a desktop to a large conference<br />
room scratchboard.<br />
Both the JCAP North and South will<br />
combine the efforts of synthetic chemists,<br />
chemical engineers and builders. Moreover,<br />
each site has all of the projects, but<br />
differentially sized. For example, while researchers<br />
investigate membranes on a meso-scale<br />
at one site, other researchers will<br />
examine them at a nanoscale at the other<br />
site. Some of the problems JCAP will be<br />
closely observing across scales include fluid<br />
flow, carbon dioxide input and diffusion,<br />
how bubbles affect light absorption, etc.<br />
“This will be a vertically-integrated<br />
project. We will build prototypes on all<br />
scale levels in parallel, which will allow<br />

Women Men <br />
Amongst the 603 admitted students, 226 matriculated to Caltech. The class<br />
of 2014 is 31 students less than the previous class of 257. The percentage of<br />
women in the freshmen class is 40% women, down from class of 2013’s 43%.<br />
The yield is approximately the same as previous years, dangling at about 37%.<br />
Recently appointed Director of Admissions, Jared Whitney, reflected upon<br />
his first few interactions with the new froshlings during Frosh Camp, “I was<br />
amazed at how quickly they all bonded! They had such big ideas already and<br />
were eager to learn.”<br />
us to tackle problems on that individual<br />
level,” describes Brunschwig. “The point<br />
here being that you want a critical mass;<br />
you want various groups to talk and interface<br />
to be intellectually one site.”<br />
Roughly half the researchers at JCAP<br />
South will consist of Caltech graduate students<br />
and postdoctoral fellows, while the<br />
other half will be newly hired staff acquired<br />
over the next few years.<br />
However, “this is not normal research,<br />
as in single PI [principal investigator]oriented<br />
as in most university or industry<br />
labs,” says Brunschwig. “All science and<br />
engineering will be focused on the device,<br />
with much more control over the science<br />
by a science management team, keeing an<br />
eye on where we’re going. The PIs can’t<br />
decide by themselves what to pursue.<br />
We didn’t want more than two sites<br />
– Steve Chu envisioned “Bell Lab-lets”,<br />
not an initiative involving 100 PIs spread<br />
across 7 sites.”<br />
“Many of the existing solar research<br />
efforts are largely on fundamental science;<br />
JCAP will do transformational science and<br />
develop technology of solar-fuels generation<br />
that can be potentially implemented in<br />
large scale. So we will not only do breakthrough<br />
science, we also have an aggressive<br />
agenda to develop a true revolutionary<br />
technology and bring it to the market,”<br />
says Yang.<br />
To advance its goal as quickly as possible,<br />
JCAP will incorporate the latest discoveries<br />
from the scientific community<br />
including national research centers as well<br />
as individual university groups. “JCAP is<br />
committed to the rapid transfer of research<br />
results to private industry for commercialization,”<br />
declares the DOE Office of Basic<br />
Energy Sciences in the JCAP Technical<br />

Revised and new HSS music<br />
offerings to include Youtube<br />
and other online media<br />
Professor Neenan, who teaches the music<br />
history and theory courses in HSS, will<br />
be encouraging students to access Youtube<br />
and other online sites for listening homework<br />
assignments typically associated<br />
with the music history and music appreciation<br />
courses. Students will continue to<br />
be required to complete listening assignments<br />
each week as part of their homework,<br />
but rather than listening entirely to<br />
CDs checked out from the library, students<br />
will access files on Youtube and elsewhere<br />
in order to see video clips of music performed<br />
live. Classes will also include an<br />
online questions and comments forum via<br />
the course website.<br />
The first such revision will be seen this<br />
fall in Mu21 – Understanding Music – a<br />
course Neenan describes as “a whirlwind<br />
tour through the history of Western music,”<br />
covering a little more than 1200 years of<br />
music in 10 weeks. Youtube clips of chanting<br />
monks and six year old piano prodigies<br />
will make up some of the listening assignments.<br />
In the winter, both Mu26 – Jazz History<br />
– and a new course, Mu140 – The Great<br />
Orchestras – will utilize online video and<br />
music resources. “I’m all for making homework<br />
assignments more fun and interesting<br />
and if students can accomplish the same<br />
thing – or more – by accessing Youtube<br />
rather than going to the library and checking<br />
out CDs, I’m in,” Neenan says.<br />
catalysts,” adds Brunschwig.<br />
Brunschwig expects that there will be<br />
regular 6-month reviews in which they will<br />
consider current goals, funding of various<br />
projects and its reallocation, if necessary.<br />
While Lewis will oversee JCAP’s endeavors,<br />
he will maintain his research group<br />
in chemistry with basic research projects<br />
developing components for a functional<br />
device on a microscale level. Lewis’s other<br />
projects include an NSF-funded initiative<br />
known as Powering the Planet, run by the<br />
Center for Chemical Innovation. The initiative<br />
is also working on a prototype, but<br />
its collaborators span across the nation.<br />
The proposal for JCAP of creating<br />
carbon-neutral fuels from sunlight and water<br />
was selected for DOE funding among<br />
many other collaborative teams across the<br />
nation with different though very interesting<br />
and worthy ideas.<br />
“We wanted to partner with LBL because<br />
of their intellectual power, expertise,<br />
facilities, their light source, and molecular<br />
foundry,” says Brunschwig.<br />
“Even if we had not been selected, we<br />
though it was valuable enough to try and<br />
find other ways to get it off the ground,”<br />
comments Brunschwig. “From my point of<br />
view anyway, I would like to see 10 Hubs<br />
working on making solar fuels. It has both<br />
high pay-off and high risk, but gas emissions<br />
are high risk, too.”<br />
JCAP will be given $22 million this<br />
fiscal year, with $25 million for the next<br />
four years. JCAP’s staff will occupy temporary<br />
space in the next month, as Jorgensen<br />
will not be completed for another<br />
16-18 months. The team does not expect to<br />
undertake a lot of research, as most of the<br />
money from this year will go toward the<br />
building and installment of equipment.<br />
The JCAP team hopes to sign the cooperative<br />
agreement this week.<br />

This year, Prof. Dinakar Ramakrishnan<br />
will teach Math 1a, the freshman course on<br />
calculus and proofs. He replaces Prof. Tom<br />
Graber, who taught the previous two years.<br />
A twenty-two year veteran of Caltech’s<br />
faculty who is teaching the course for the<br />
first time, Ramakrishnan has been thinking<br />
of ways to make the course more “userfriendly.”<br />
Because some students have had little<br />
exposure to the level of rigor in Math 1a,<br />
Ramakrishnan plans to dedicate a few days<br />
in early fall specifically to writing mathematical<br />
proofs, though he anticipates that,<br />
due to time constraints, he may have to<br />
shorten a section near the end of the quarter.<br />
“The purpose of Math 1a is to teach [students]<br />
the mathematical method...using<br />
calculus, which most people have seen,”<br />
said Ramakrishnan. “Students are really<br />
learning about argument.”<br />

Nearby caffeine: coffee, tea, and a nice<br />
place to work<br />
by Sarah Marzen<br />
Coffee shops and tea shops can merely be places to buy a delicious alternative to sleep or energy drinks. But<br />
coffee shops are also an alternative to a cubicle or messy desk. Most coffee shops now have electrical outlets and<br />
offer free Wi-Fi. Here are some of my favorite alternative work spaces.<br />
Starbucks<br />
You want a spot for your<br />
laptop but didn’t show up before<br />
8 AM? Tough luck. Starbucks<br />
has never been empty since<br />
it offered free Wi-Fi. The<br />
overpriced drinks don’t taste<br />
very good, the pastries are soso,<br />
and the store on the corner<br />
of Lake and California doesn’t<br />
offer any of mega-Starbucks’<br />
healthy, warm breakfast items<br />
except for oatmeal. The<br />
Starbucks-produced music is<br />
just loud enough that you can’t<br />
tune it out. On the plus side,<br />
Starbucks provides nutritional<br />
information for all of its menu<br />
items, and it’s open from 5 AM<br />
to 11 PM.<br />

No one is ever here, and that<br />
makes this place a gem for the<br />
wandering workaholic. The<br />
tea selection is large enough,<br />
if overpriced, and the friendly<br />
barista is happy to play a<br />
different radio station for you<br />
if you just ask. The snacks are<br />
barely mediocre and the place<br />
closes at 5 PM.<br />

Coffee Bean and Tea<br />

With tastier drinks and a<br />
wider tea selection, the Coffee<br />
Bean sets itself from the<br />
Starbucks that’s thirty seconds<br />
down the road by offering its<br />
patrons a completely different<br />
atmosphere. There’s only<br />
about five seats inside, near<br />
electrical outlets. Most of the<br />
seats are at small tables outside,<br />
which are filled with people<br />
talking, not working. Try their<br />
iced tea lattes if you’re tired<br />
of Starbucks’ flavorless tea<br />
lattes.<br />

Teaspots<br />
This “cheap Asian<br />
Starbucks” is the hang-out for<br />
PCC students during the year.<br />
Prices are cheap with the 30%<br />
student discount, the boba is<br />
tasty, a wide range of decent<br />
Asian food is made to order,<br />
and there is free Wi-Fi and<br />
electrical outlets everywhere.<br />
This is definitely a tea shop<br />
aimed at a younger crowd. The<br />
place is open until 1 AM and<br />
the music varies from popular<br />
oldies of the Backstreet Boys<br />
to Korean pop songs from<br />
2ne1. As with other cheap<br />
Asian stores, Teaspots only<br />
takes cash, but they have an<br />
ATM in store.<br />

Intelligentsia<br />
This new coffee shop in Old Pasadena looks like an interior<br />
decorator’s conception of a mad scientist’s lair. Blue walls<br />
on one side are opposite from a brick wall, and in between is<br />
an amazing collection of beakers and rudimentary hot plates.<br />
They have a very precise procedure for brewing coffee that<br />
involves evaporating water into a coffee filter using a halogen<br />
lamp two different times and stirring in between, and the effort<br />
shows-- the coffee is artwork. However, a latte is $4. The<br />
food is similarly pricy and similarly tasty. By the way, don’t<br />
order tea here unless you feel like wasting money.<br />
Intelligentsia is roomy and cozy, a feat achieved by separating<br />
the front of the store from the back using glass shelves filled<br />
with aesthetically pleasing coffee products. There are no<br />
electrical outlets. You can join the multitude of intellectuals<br />
reading in the back, or you can watch as Pasadena’s young<br />
professional crowd grabs their mid-morning coffee.<br />

How does the Tech<br />
stack up against<br />
other collegiate<br />
newspapers?<br />
By Tina Ding<br />
ed i t o r-in-Ch i e f<br />
At a recent conference for student<br />
journalists, Sarah and I sat in<br />
front of the associated collegiate<br />
press critic with the April 19,<br />
<strong>2010</strong> issue of the Tech placed on<br />
the table between us. “Tell me,”<br />
he said, “what is the thing that you<br />
like the most about your paper?”<br />
As I considered my response, my<br />
thoughts turned to the tight-knit<br />
Caltech community with its spirit<br />
of innovation, active student and<br />
House government, and unique<br />
self-image. The chance to report<br />
on these topics and thus contribute<br />
each week to this one-of-akind<br />
Caltech identity is what I<br />
enjoy the most. In other words,<br />
I told him, it’s the Caltech-centric<br />
content of our paper.<br />
At this collegiate press workshop,<br />
we interacted with other<br />
student editors and writers from<br />
around the country during social<br />
hours after conference seminars.<br />
The newspapers represented by<br />
this group of journalists ranged<br />
from student newspapers smaller<br />
than our own to the Minnesota<br />
Daily, the largest student-run<br />
newspaper in the country. When<br />
I asked a group of Minnesota<br />
Daily reporters how they manage<br />
to generate so much content each<br />
day, one senior reporter asked<br />
me what city Caltech resides<br />
in. Upon hearing Pasadena, he<br />
seemed confused by my question.<br />
For the next several minutes I listened<br />
blankly as he expatiated on<br />
Minneapolis legislature, which<br />
was apparently his area of journalistic<br />
focus. All I could think<br />
was, “Wow, I think we only did<br />
one piece all year on Pasadenarelated<br />
news and I wonder how<br />
popular that story was...!” We at<br />
the Tech try to focus on the issues<br />
that matter most to Techers, e.g.<br />
Kip Thorne’s forays into Hollywood<br />
or the latest news about the<br />
changes to core rather than high<br />
gubernatorial race spendings.<br />
The Tech isn’t a 16+ page daily,<br />
nor does it have a whole office<br />
building floor as its newsroom.<br />
Instead, we get our perks from<br />
being a part of the “do it our way”<br />
mindset of Caltech, reflected left<br />
and right by things such as our<br />
Housing system, Interhouse parties,<br />
the bookstore, 100+ “committees”,<br />
donut (both the midnight<br />
and website varieties), Tom<br />
Mannion... and the list goes on<br />
and on.<br />
We did, however, find some<br />
commonalities among the Tech<br />
and just about every other student<br />
paper. First and foremost, readers<br />
griping about the paper appears to<br />
be universal, according to the various<br />
editors and advisors I met.<br />
Secondly, tension between the<br />
paper and administration is inevitable,<br />
but is possible to mediate.<br />
As we begin a new year, I hope<br />
that our experience at this summer’s<br />
journalism conference can<br />
give you, our readers, some perspective<br />
on both the California<br />
Tech and the spirit of our community<br />
that I sincerely value.<br />

Class of 2013 gipped of an offcampus<br />
frosh camp<br />
By Amol Kamat<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
The new frosh have arrived and<br />
are facing the time honored tradition<br />
of rotation. But these new<br />
Techers experienced one thing<br />
that the Class of 2013 did not:<br />
Frosh Camp at Ventura Beach.<br />
Last year, as some of you may<br />
recall, Frosh Camp was held oncampus,<br />
with prefrosh living in<br />
the houses and attending lectures<br />
across campus.<br />
“The high value placed on this<br />
important experience is apparently<br />
not as valuable as the dollar,”<br />
gargled one anonymous sophomore,<br />
“Caltech definitely needs<br />
to make this up to us because I<br />
am paying the same tuition as the<br />
new frosh.”<br />
The general consensus amongst<br />
the sophomore class is that they<br />
did not get to know each other as<br />
well as the new class. “I personally<br />
feel that I met most of our class,<br />
but I also had the added benefit of<br />
preseason. But, I feel that Frosh<br />
Camp is an invaluable experience<br />
to meet our class before we<br />
are separated into houses, and I<br />
feel without Frosh Camp, many<br />
people did not get the chance to<br />
know their class as well as they<br />
might have liked,” said Vishnu<br />
Manoranjan.<br />
According to the <strong>September</strong><br />
1970 issue of “The Month of<br />
Caltech,” Frosh Camp began in<br />
1919 when the Caltech Y held an<br />
evening reception for the incoming<br />
class.<br />
Later, that became an all day<br />
event. Eventually, it grew to be an<br />
overnight campout in the mountains<br />
before becoming a multiple<br />
day affair. In 1970, Frosh Camp<br />
was held on campus for the first<br />
time since 1926, featuring a simi-<br />
lar slate of activities as last year’s<br />
Frosh Camp. The reasoning behind<br />
that switch was to allow the<br />
new students to become more<br />
familiar with the Caltech/Los Angeles<br />
area.<br />
Last year’s change was more<br />
due to finances. Dean Green clarified,<br />
“Frosh Camp was held on<br />
campus last year due to financial<br />
issues related to the economy. It<br />
was reinstated this year because<br />
Vice President for Student Affairs<br />
Anneila Sargent and others<br />
at Caltech place a high value on<br />
new students having this off campus<br />
experience where they can interact<br />
easily with each other and<br />
with the many faculty, staff and<br />
upperclassmen who participate.”<br />
“They owe us a nice senior trip,<br />
an expensive one,” said Blaine<br />
Matulevich, “Like Europe.”<br />
Tax Dollars Balanced<br />
Caltech’s Budget<br />
By Evans Boney<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
I attended the staff town hall<br />
that President Chameau held<br />
at the end of last year. In it, he<br />
touted the increased grant funding<br />
that we had been able to secure<br />
due to the stimulus (this led<br />
to a mind-boggling 30% increase<br />
in grant funding year-over-year).<br />
When asked about when we<br />
would see the income from the<br />
stimulus trickle down to campus<br />
improvements or additional jobs,<br />
Chameau said, “That’s not how it<br />
works”. Next question.<br />
Presumably, President Chameau,<br />
had he been asked to<br />
elaborate, would have droned on<br />
about how terribly complicated<br />
the budget is, but that he has every<br />
assurance from Dean Currie<br />

This confuses me. Excuse my<br />
ignorance, but throughout the entire<br />
talk, President Chameau repeated<br />
over and over that he had<br />
balanced the budget. But... how?<br />
Did chopping those 100 jobs really<br />
save enough money to offset<br />
the loss in the endowment? Or<br />
did we use stimulus money to balance<br />
the budget?<br />
Luckily, we have facts and<br />
figures available on Caltech’s<br />
website. I encourage all of you,<br />
particularly interested faculty, to<br />
check out the past 5 annual reports.<br />
Caltech has had a “systemic<br />
deficit”. That is to say, even in<br />
the good times, Caltech’s costs<br />
exceeded it’s revenues (from<br />
grants, interest, and the like).<br />
But somehow, last year, despite<br />
lowered revenues from the endowment<br />
(which were offset partially<br />
by the Draconian job cuts)...<br />
we did it! Chameau seemed to<br />
have expected quite a celebration,<br />
and got tepid applause.<br />
I’m confused.<br />
Is the goal of the institute to<br />
balance the budget?<br />
If so, bully for President Chameau.<br />
He has hoarded the stimulus<br />
right into the endowment,<br />
fixing our systemic deficit with<br />
donations from American citizens.<br />
Or am I missing the computer<br />
labs? The new professors? The<br />
new buildings? (Schlinger was,<br />
for instance, started in 2007).<br />
Nope. This also can be checked<br />
online. Despite taking much,<br />
much more government money...<br />
line items related to research and<br />
th e Ca l i f o r n i a te C h<br />
academic support increased 0.5%.<br />
I thought grant money, particularly<br />
stimulus money, came with the<br />
expectation it will be spent supporting<br />
research, not hoarded into<br />
the endowment.<br />
I’m sure there is some fancy financial<br />
footwork that we can do<br />
to get away with this sort of chicanery.<br />
I hope to see a cogent explanation<br />
of his balanced budget<br />
from the President, and finally get<br />
an answer to the question asked at<br />
his town hall last year.<br />
But it sure helps explain why<br />
the stimulus package isn’t working,<br />
if Herbert Savers like President<br />
Chameau are padding their<br />
balance sheets instead of moving<br />
aggressively to gain an edge (as,<br />
for instance, UT Austin is doing).<br />
I hold President Chameau personally<br />
responsible for his part in the<br />
failure of the Stimulus Package.<br />
Somewhere in the neigborhood of<br />
$20-30 M, depending on what line<br />
items count as research support,<br />
appears to have been grifted.<br />
I look forward to seeing an<br />
update from the President on<br />
Caltech’s careful stewardship of<br />
Stimulus Funds. Particularly,<br />
I would ask him to publicly defend<br />
his rejection of the Faculty<br />
Healthcare Committee’s recommendation<br />
that we reinstate the<br />
old mental health plan, in light of<br />
the recent rash of suicides.<br />
Apparently, despite receiving<br />
30% more funding for just such<br />
research support, we just don’t<br />
have the money for such frivolity.
THE CAlIfOrnIA TECH se P t e m b e r <strong>27</strong>, <strong>2010</strong><br />
Prop 19: sound in principle<br />
but not in practice<br />
By Pradeep Ramesh<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
Proposition 19, also known as<br />
the Regulate, Control, and Tax<br />
Cannabis Act of <strong>2010</strong>, has generated<br />
waves of controversy, especially<br />
in recent months as the<br />
clock winds down towards the<br />
upcoming midterm elections. As<br />
such, understanding the details of<br />
the ballot initiative are critical to<br />
making an informed choice.<br />
In essence, the law permits all<br />
those who are 21 or older to:<br />
1. Possess up to one ounce of<br />
cannabis for personal consumption<br />
2. Use cannabis in private residences<br />
or in authorized public<br />
sites<br />
3. Grow cannabis at a private<br />
residence in a maximum plot of<br />
25 square feet<br />
The law grants local governments<br />
the power to levy taxes<br />
and allows for the transportation<br />
of marijuana from licensed premises<br />
in one city/county to another<br />
without regard to the local laws<br />
of intermediate localities. Disregarding<br />
any scientific arguments<br />
for the benefits or harmful side-<br />
effects of smoking marijuana, I<br />
believe that Prop 19 is a flawed<br />
legislation because it is poorly<br />
designed.<br />
One major pitfall of the proposed<br />
initiative is that the state<br />
government does not set the<br />
regulatory policies. Instead those<br />
powers are set-aside for the local<br />
governments, thereby creating<br />
a patchwork quilt of regulatory<br />
policies that vary from city to<br />
city and county to county within<br />
California. Consequently, the<br />
economic benefits of legalizing<br />
marijuana to the state are somewhat<br />
unclear – it is true that the<br />
state government will undoubtedly<br />
receive some revenue from<br />
local districts but the estimates<br />
appear rosy. It seems more sensible<br />
to create a statewide policy<br />
on marijuana and remit any taxes<br />
directly to the state treasury.<br />
Furthermore, by permitting<br />
residents to grow cannabis, the<br />
letter to the Editor<br />
Big T Update<br />
First, some statistics: 594 pages<br />
(144 color, 458 black and white),<br />
2,682 pictures, <strong>27</strong>,869 submitted<br />
pictures, 1,460 days, 1,586 mailing<br />
addresses on file, 982 current<br />
addresses (45 international, 937<br />
domestic), 2,250 printed books,<br />
9 cover designs, 329 pages of<br />
proofs, 13 tested printing configurations,<br />
countless man-hours.<br />
The upshot? Everyone will be<br />
receiving every Big T promised<br />
by the ASCIT bylaws. We didn’t<br />
have the money to print four sets<br />
of books—so we ended up combining<br />
the three backdated years<br />
(2007, 2008, and 2009) into one<br />
‘mega-book’ that will be distrib-<br />
uted to members of the classes of<br />
2007 – 2013. Think of it as an opportunity<br />
to learn about your alums<br />
and feel connected to a larger<br />
Caltech community.<br />
We couldn’t manufacture memories<br />
from years past without archived<br />
pictures—but we tried our<br />
best to hunt down what we could<br />
all throughout last year, contacting<br />
prior house historians, Big<br />
T editors, and anyone else who<br />
might have usable content.<br />
Despite having caught up with<br />
our backlog, we’re not free and<br />
clear just yet. The problems outlined<br />
in the article on the Big T are<br />
still very much an issue going forward<br />
with the 2011 book (which<br />
we’re already working on). We<br />
OpiNiON 7<br />
legislation not only undermines<br />
any potential economic benefits,<br />
but also creates new enforcement<br />
problems for the state’s already<br />
strapped regulatory agencies.<br />
It seems more sensible to ban<br />
private cultivation and only authorize<br />
purchase from licensed<br />
growers. By permitting private<br />
cultivation, the law increases the<br />
probability of drug proliferation<br />
amongst minors and associated<br />
fatality rates.<br />
Lastly, since the sale of marijuana<br />
is federally prohibited by<br />
the Controlled Substances Act,<br />
the legal implications of cannabis<br />
legalization are potentially grave.<br />
Anti-cannabis groups can appeal<br />
to the higher courts and set the<br />
stage for a protracted and costly<br />
legal battle for years to come. For<br />
these reasons and more, I believe<br />
that Prop 19 is not a practical ballot<br />
initiative; the state legislators<br />
should seize the issue at hand and<br />
design a feasible proposal. Until<br />
then, I urge you to vote NO on<br />
Prop 19!<br />

still have budget issues, are short<br />
on staff members, and the spectre<br />
of falling behind (again) looms in<br />
the back of our minds.<br />
Currently, students contribute<br />
$12 a term towards the publication<br />
of the yearbook. This past<br />
year, the total cost of printing the<br />
<strong>2010</strong> yearbook was approximately<br />
$64,000—which works out to<br />
almost $70 a student. Advertising<br />
brings this total down to $55, but<br />
that still leaves us with a budget<br />
deficit every year. Student fees<br />
for the <strong>2010</strong>-2011 school year<br />
have already been set, but going<br />
forward a more viable solution<br />
needs to be found. Students<br />
elsewhere pay upwards of $100<br />
for their college (or high school)<br />
Prop 8: How long<br />
will America have<br />
to wait?<br />
Judge Walker’s hallmark<br />
ruling against Prop 8 now<br />
pending appeal<br />
By Sandhya<br />
Chandrasekaran<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
The fight for equal rights has<br />
been a constant struggle throughout<br />
history.<br />
Despite the supposed social<br />
progress we rarely fail to commend<br />
ourselves for, we still have<br />
a deep-rooted affinity for tradition<br />
and established ways, sometimes<br />
to the point of blind, irrational acceptance.<br />
The approval of Proposition 8<br />
during the California election almost<br />
two years ago in November<br />
2008 was thought to mark the end,<br />
albeit a wanted defeat, to heated<br />
arguments upholding the rights of<br />
gay and lesbian couples to get legally<br />
recognized marriages in the<br />
state of California.<br />
However, this setback only<br />
fired up opponents of the decision<br />
to fight back even harder.<br />
In addition to numerous prevalent<br />
demonstrations and protests,<br />
same-sex couples and government<br />
entities filed several lawsuits<br />
with the California Supreme<br />
Court challenging the validity of<br />
the proposition and its effect on<br />
previously administered samesex<br />
marriages.<br />
In the notable Strauss v. Horton<br />
case, the court upheld Proposition<br />
8 while allowing existing samesex<br />
marriages to stand.<br />
August 4, <strong>2010</strong> marked a<br />
true victory when Judge Vaughn<br />
R. Walker of the United States<br />
District Court overturned the<br />
proposition in the case Perry v.<br />
Schwarzenegger. Walker ruled,<br />
“Proposition 8 fails to advance<br />
any rational basis in singling out<br />
gay men and lesbians for denial<br />
of a marriage license. Because<br />
California has no interest in discriminating<br />
against gay men and<br />
lesbians, and because Proposition<br />
8 prevents California from fulfilling<br />
its constitutional obligation to<br />
provide marriages on an equal<br />
basis, the court concludes that<br />
Proposition 8 is unconstitutional.”<br />
While Walker acknowledged<br />
that the federal constitutional<br />
right to marry has traditionally re-<br />
yearbook, in which they might<br />
only have one small portrait.<br />
Increasing the student fee to<br />
$20 a term—an increase of only<br />
$15 a year, and the first in many<br />
years—would ensure that we can<br />
cover our costs.<br />
If you flip to the back of the<br />
<strong>2010</strong> Big T, you’ll see a list of<br />
staff and contributors. It’s a handful<br />
of students, and an apt example<br />
of the 20/80 rule, although<br />
in this case it’s more like 5% of<br />
students generating 100% of the<br />
pages. If the number of pictures<br />
uploaded to Facebook is any indicator,<br />
there are a lot more closet<br />
shutterbugs at Caltech whose assistance<br />
can only improve next<br />
year’s book. Was there an event<br />
ferred to opposite gender couples,<br />
he asserted that this definition<br />
has evolved over time to include<br />
same-sex couples as well; furthermore,<br />
he stressed that a domestic<br />
partnership would not provide<br />
the same social means and<br />
recognition as a marriage. Walker<br />
underscored this outlook with his<br />
rationale regarding equal protection,<br />
which, he stated, would be<br />
sacrificed under Proposition 8.<br />
Walker eventually issued an injunction<br />
against enforcing Proposition<br />
8, basically granting samesex<br />
couples the right to marry for<br />
the time being.<br />
The judge also ordered a stay<br />
of execution to ensure that the<br />
injunction is upheld, pending appeal.<br />
Not surprisingly, proposition<br />
disputants were ecstatic. Even<br />
Governor Schwarzenegger, the<br />
named defendant of the case,<br />
showed appreciation and support<br />
for the outcome.<br />
This is not to say that everyone<br />
was pleased, as dissenting parties<br />
promptly sent a notice of appeal<br />
to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.<br />
As of now, the Ninth Circuit<br />
Court has continued Judge Walker’s<br />
stay of execution. While the<br />
court ordered an expedited briefing<br />
on the reasoning and basis<br />
of the appeals by the dissatisfied<br />
groups, the court has decided to<br />
hear out the arguments during the<br />
week of December 6, <strong>2010</strong>. If the<br />
court finds these appeals valid,<br />
the decision will ultimately lie<br />
in the hands of the U.S. Supreme<br />
Court.<br />
By challenging Proposition 8,<br />
Walker has presented a visible<br />
sign of progress and has instilled<br />
hope to those at the brink of losing<br />
it. The final verdict is unknown<br />
and the issue faces a staggering<br />
journey up several rungs of the<br />
judicial ladder, which may even<br />
take years to climb.<br />
Nonetheless, a fiercer battle<br />
can only result in a sweeter victory,<br />
and for people who only<br />
seek to be valued and recognized<br />
as equals in society, a much deserved<br />
one at that.<br />
you organized or attended which<br />
didn’t make it into the Big T?<br />
Don’t take it personally—if we<br />
received a enough photos of an<br />
event, we made every effort to<br />
include it. Take pictures! Write a<br />
blurb! We want the yearbook to<br />
be a true reflection of campus.<br />
Enjoy your yearbooks!<br />

THE CAlIfOrnIA TECH se P t e m b e r <strong>27</strong>, <strong>2010</strong><br />
Book Review:<br />
by Sandhya Chandrasekaran<br />
The story behind the creation of Facebook, a site that<br />
has revolutionized the way people around the world<br />
communicate, is a typical story about the big and brutal<br />
world of business. Several people quite innocently and<br />
eagerly attempt to start companies and work their way<br />
up from the very bottom of the pyramid, only to find<br />
themselves crushed somewhere along the way. Even<br />
worse, a group of people at the brink of success find<br />
their friendship jeopardized in the process.<br />
Ben Mezrich’s fictionalized account of the tale, “The<br />
Accidental Billionaires”, is a very vivid chronicle of<br />
how two Harvard social outcasts came together and<br />
grew apart all in the span of a few life-altering years.<br />
Through his book, Mezrich boldly attempts to recreate<br />
the events of Facebook history. I say “boldly” because<br />
he lacks key information that would otherwise dissuade<br />
this pursuit; I say “attempts” because he consequently<br />
fails.<br />
The author’s note reads, “Trying to paint a scene from the<br />
memories of dozens of sources – some direct witnesses,<br />
some indirect – can often lead to discrepancies. I recreated<br />
the scenes in the book based on the information<br />
I uncovered from documents and interviews, and my<br />
best judgment as to what version most closely fits the<br />
documentary record.”<br />
This is essentially Mezrich’s version of a disclaimer<br />
for the incredibility of his book. By whimsically<br />
incorporating fluff to patch up the gaps in his information<br />
sources, Mezrich treads the line between fiction and<br />
nonfiction. The purpose of the book is undoubtedly to<br />
provide information on Facebook history; however,<br />
the overly descriptive phrases and cinematic scenarios<br />
make the whole situation unreal. Readers looking for the<br />
actual historical account could look elsewhere on news<br />
sites, and those looking for a good read could just as<br />
easily go to the library and find a mentally-stimulating<br />
novel, rendering Mezrich’s book completely and utterly<br />
useless.<br />
The wide holes in Mezrich’s research, sporadically<br />
replaced with nonsensical wadding, resulted mainly from<br />
Mark Zuckerberg declining to interview or contribute to<br />
the book in any way. Without any assistance from the<br />
star of the show, the creator of this world wide webpidemic,<br />
Mezrich turned to a man who was more than<br />
eager to provide his generally overlooked version of the<br />
events, Zuckerberg’s best friend-turned-enemy, Eduardo<br />
Saverin. In fact, Mezrich credits Saverin as a person<br />
“without whom this story could not have been written”.<br />
Placing that much importance on a person so polarized<br />
in the events that took place in no way helps the author<br />
fill in the missing information; in fact, the result is a<br />
somewhat biased picture as Saverin’s opinions receive<br />
much elaboration while Zuckerberg’s almost always<br />
follow doubtful prefaces such as “perhaps”, “maybe”,<br />
Bestseller “The Accidental<br />
Billionaires” merits a<br />
C<br />
A film adaptation of the book called “The Social Network” opens in theaters<br />
October 1, <strong>2010</strong>. It is a Columbia Pictures film starring Jesse Eisenberg,<br />
Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake, and Brenda Song, and is directed by<br />
David fincher, with adapted screenplay by Aaron Sorkin.<br />
and “we can only imagine”.<br />
Putting these aspects aside, as difficult as that is, the<br />
reader will find that Mezrich has crafted the individuals<br />
into memorable characters. The author portrays Mark<br />
Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin, the people at the root of<br />
the global phenomenon, as two socially awkward, hormonedriven<br />
boys. The extent of this ridiculous dramatization<br />
is surprisingly refreshing, as the reader sees these brainy<br />
powerhouses as actual, relatable people. Saverin’s<br />
eagerness and anxiety to be accepted into the Pheonix, an<br />
exclusive underground organization at Harvard University,<br />
is developed to the point where the reader can’t help but<br />
chuckle and pity his innocent desperation. Zuckerberg’s<br />
aloofness from the world around him complements his<br />
innovative and crafty personality. Even the Winklevoss<br />
twins, who claim Zuckerberg stole the idea of Facebook<br />
from them, are not only physically intimidating, but<br />
mentally driven to make something of themselves the<br />
merciless world of business.<br />
Despite the commendable characterization Mezrich<br />
employs, his book is a distorted, elementary read. Which<br />
only makes the reader wonder whether Mezrich’s so-called<br />
“national bestseller”, The Accidental Billionaires, is the<br />

A message from team captain Jonathan Yeung<br />
“The team is hoping to build on the progress we<br />
made last year. Every year that I have been here,<br />
our team has gotten progressively better. We have<br />
the players that will allow us to play competitively<br />
with most of the teams in SCIAC, but what we<br />
must do is to play to our full potential. But playing<br />
competitively is not enough, at the end of the game<br />
the scoreline is what matters. Last year, we won<br />
twice. This year, we need to do even better than<br />
that.<br />
This is also the final year for a large and strong<br />
senior class:<br />
Me, DJ Seo, Becky Scholz, Tyler Hannasch,<br />
Grayson Chadwick, Alan Pezeshki, Tom Lampo<br />
We all have been playing together for 4 years<br />
now and have always been the core of the team.<br />
Making this final season the best one is more<br />
motivation for the seven of us to play well.”<br />
Beavers Take on Bulldogs<br />
By Amol Kamat<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
On a cold <strong>September</strong> night, the Beavers took on the soccer powerhouse that<br />
is the University of Redlands. Two early strikes from the Bulldogs quickly<br />
put the game out of reach, but an inspired Caltech defense, led by goalie<br />
Marcus Lucas, allowed only one goal in the remainder of the half.<br />
The defense continued to hold tight for the first twenty minutes of the<br />
second half before allowing four more Bulldog goals. The second half also<br />
saw the first major Caltech offensive attacks of the night, though they all<br />
sizzled before coming to fruition. Still, the Beavers were entertaining to<br />
watch, typically drawing more cheers than boos from the five assembled<br />
Beaver fans.<br />
Notable highlights from the game include Jonathan Yeung’s almost goal in<br />
the waning minutes of the game and watching the Redlands fans’ reactions<br />
as Sarah Wright and Sara Venkatesh took the field at the same time, even<br />
cheering when Wright slide tackled a Redlands player.<br />
The Caltech soccer team (now 0-3, although gocaltech.com counts the<br />
alumni game, making them 1-3) is ready to look past the 7-0 blowout.<br />
They will finish up a tough series of away games against Whitter and<br />
Chapman before a home stand against Pomona-Pitzer on Wednesday<br />
afternoon.<br />
Top Dog<br />
By Erik Peterson<br />
St a ff Wr i t e r<br />
Michael Vick is top dog again. “Slick” Vick has been renamed a starter and is looking better than<br />
ever, much the chagrin of Nancy Grace viewers and PETA activists everywhere. Eagles coach Andy<br />
Reid made the decision to bench starting QB Kevin Kolb earlier this week, caving to vocal pressure<br />
from both pundits and Philadelphia fans alike. Pressure had been mounting on Reid following<br />
Vick’s performance against the Packers in Week 1, where he filled in for an injured Kolb during the<br />
second half and led the Eagles on a comeback to within 7 of the heavily favored Packers, despite<br />
him ultimately falling short. The injured Kolb remained out for Week 2’s game against the Detroit<br />
Lions, and the Vick-led Eagles managed to win 35-32, prompting even heavier pressure to make<br />
Vick the starter for the remainder of the season.<br />
ESPN panelists may disagree over whether beating the Lions (who have gone 2-33 in their last<br />
35) merits a starting position for Vick, or whether Reid is making a mistake by in effect throwing<br />
away all the offensive planning and training done around Kolb throughout training camp and preseason.<br />
Ultimately for the fans however, the story is simple: “We want Vick.” A recent polling on<br />
SportsNation.com showed almost 85% of fans nationwide felt Vick was a better choice than Kolb.<br />
Will Vick lead the Eagles where McNabb never could and help Philadelphia attain the Lombardi<br />
Trophy its fans so desperately crave? Smart money says “no.” Statistical computer simulations,<br />
courtesy of AccuScore.com, have however suggested that Philadelphia does indeed have a better<br />
chance of winning the NFC East with Vick at the helm rather than Kolb. Only time will tell how the<br />
Eagles fare under Vick, in the meantime Philadelphia fans can continue to stockpile their supply of<br />
D batteries and eagerly await the return of McNabb to Lincoln Financial Field on October 3rd.<br />
Addendum: Vick fantasy holders had much to be pleased with Sunday afternoon, as Vick threw<br />
for 3 TD’s and ran in for a fourth, with the Eagles crushing the Jaguars 28-3. Perhaps this will be<br />
enough quell Reid and Vick’s critics for the time being.<br />
