Question 1: Mark Cuban, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, was recently charged with insider trading. Does this surprise you?
No. If you’re good at trading, there’s a good chance inside information is being transmitted. I’m sure he’ll buy his way out of it and then buy the Cubs.	No, the sports industry is like a business. I’m surprised more coaches or owners haven’t been caught.	It’s fitting. Are people from Texas even considered honest and reliable anymore? Besides, with role models like the executives in Wall Street, who wouldn’t be tempted to do a little insider trading?	He’s one sly guy. With a smile like his, there’s no clue what he’s capable of.

Trey Henderson, the man behind UNF’s Harriet the Osprey, said he feels normal when he’s in costume. The 21-year-old student was also the Panther mascot named homecoming king at Ridgeview High School in Orange Park, the Easter Bunny and Santa’s helper at the Avenues Mall. Henderson spoke with the Spinnaker about his role as Harriet and what he hopes to accomplish here at UNF.

Four amendments passed in the Nov. 4 elections from the Florida ballot, and two failed. The Spinnaker picked two that were most significant for college students: Amendment No. 2 and No. 8. Amendment No. 2: Florida Marriage “This amendment protects marriage as the legal union of only one man and one woman as husband and wife and provides that no other legal union that is treated as marriage or the substantial equivalent thereof shall be valid or recognized,” as stated on the Florida ballot. 4,885,009 voters marked yes for approval.

Police are still searching for a suspect involved in an on-campus sexual assault of a UNF student Oct. 3. The suspect is being described by UPD as a black male, approximately 6 feet tall. UPD is unsure if the man has any ties to the university and said any physical evidence is now lost since the victim didn’t report the incident until Oct. 29, UPD Chief Mark Foxworth said. “She said she was afraid,” Foxworth said. “It’s not unusual for a sex crimes victim to delay reporting the incident. Sometimes they are afraid, feel people will look down on them or feel responsible. While the delayed reporting has definitely hampered the investigation, it’s totally understandable.” UPD hasn’t conducted a sketch of the suspect but has put together several photos of possible suspects – with no possible leads so far, Foxworth said.

Nov. 3 – Lost property (Building 39) – A UNF employee reported a lost Dell laptop computer missing. He believed the computer was accidentally misplaced by faculty who are allowed to check out equipment for meetings. Nov. 3 – Criminal mischief (Building 14) – A 2-foot long crack in the column wall and an indentation in the wall were found in the male restroom early Friday morning. The damage appeared to be caused by a hit from a fist which knocked the plaster off of the edges of the column wall. There are no witnesses of the vandalism.

UPD Chief Mark Foxworth wishes a wall could surround UNF but admitted the idea is impractical, he said. Recent reports of violent crimes on campus, including a report of sexual battery Oct. 3 in Osprey Cove, raised concerns about the outside criminal element creeping in. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement statistics show Duval County has the highest overall crime rate and is among the top 10 counties with the most incidents in all of the violent crime categories: aggravated assault, forcible sex offenses, murder and robbery. However, incidents reported to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office within 3 miles of UNF between January 2007 and November 2008 show the university is in one of the safer areas in Duval County when it comes to violent crime.

The enticement was hard to refuse: a signing bonus of $30,000. The wad of cash would help with student loans, so who could turn down the extra cash on top of a nearly $130,000 annual salary? So, straight out of pharmacy school in Chapel Hill, N.C., R.J. Kulyk crossed the country for a job at a Walgreens in Redding, Calif. “It was a no-brainer,” Kulyk said. Pharmacists remain in short supply across the country, particularly in rural areas. Competition among retail outlets and health-care facilities is fierce, and the pay – salaries typically start around $120,000 – is high. To lure pharmacists, retailers are dangling incentives of all kind. For a while, one even put recruits behind the wheel of a BMW.

For one week in November, colleges across the United States celebrate the international cultures and students that diversify their campuses. The U.S. Departments of State and Education help promote the annual event, dubbed International Education Week. UNF’s International Center will host International Education Week Nov. 17-21. Students and faculty can participate in a variety of activities in observance of the week, which will broaden their knowledge of international affairs.
