UA VISITOR GUIDE SPRING/SUMMER 2017 7 By Eric Swedlund

The new USS Arizona Memorial at USS Arizona the heart of the University of Arizona Mall evokes the presence of the battleship and honors each of the 1,177 Sailors and Marines who lost their lives in the attack on Pearl Harbor. Mall Memorial Dedicated, fi ttingly, on Dec. 7 of last year to mark the 75th anniversary of the attack, the memorial features an outline of the ship – measur- ing 597 feet in length and 97 feet in width, the deck of the ship is an almost exact fi t for the Mall, from Old Main to the cactus garden – and a medallion plaza that marks the center of the ship’s foremast, with inscriptions of those who perished in the attack. “We’re helping now to give a better sense of the physical scale and the human scale of what happened on Dec. 7, 1941,” says project designer David Carter. “We hope it will open up an interest in that history and a connection to that history that otherwise might never happen.” Inspiration for the memorial came when Carter was chatting with Frank Farias, formerly the executive director of the UA BookStores and associate vice president of Student Aff airs. Admiring the Student Union Memori- a datE al Center’s museum exhibit dedicated to the USS Arizona, Carter observed WhiCh STILL the detailed six-foot scale model of the ship, but thought that perhaps the liVEs in inFamY magnitude of the Pearl Harbor attack could be conveyed better with a full size memorial. “That gives a context, but it’s 1/100 the size of the ship and it’s diffi cult looking at the model to get a sense of the actual scale of the Arizona,” Carter says. “I was visualizing that if you could outline the ship on the Mall, that would immediately give a way to explain that scale, and including the names would be something that would help convey the human scale.” The memorial, funded in part by contributions from more than 440 donors, makes a simple, elegant and 75 years after Dec. 7, 1941 Pearl Harbor attacks, powerful statement in the form of the true-to-scale outline of the massive a true-to-scale USS Arizona visual permanently honors ship. The outline and medallion plaza sit directly adjacent to the the 1,177 who perished with the sinking battleship 1,800-pound bell from the sunken USS Arizona ship that hangs in the Student Union tower, right in the face of Old Main – the university’s fi rst building, constructed in 1891. The medallion plaza displays the name, rank and home state of each of the 1,177 Sailors and Marines who died on the ship. “The bell has been there now for quite some time, but there’s a new dimension with the plaza. If you’re looking at the outline of the ship and suddenly there’s the tolling of the bell, it really resonates,” Carter says. “It heightens the sense of the signifi cance of all this.” Overhead image of USS Arizona Mall Memorial The bell from the USS Arizona has (facing page) Dean Kelly photo/SkyPod Images been on campus since 1946, hanging The names of the USS Arizona’s fallen crew on in the old Student Union beginning display (left). lilly Berkley photo USS Arizona Bell & USS Arizona at sea in 1951 and more prominently (above).

UA VISITOR GUIDE SPRING/SUMMER 2017 41 Maximize Your Student More Safety and Comfort, Housing Dollars! Less Cost! See Sahara Apartments advantages compared to the rest.

Student housing properties offer many choices depending on your budget. But few offer safety, comfort, modern amenities, quiet environment, AND a low price. Yes, our lower monthly rents include all utilities, HD Broadcast TV, and high-speed Internet. Compared to the dorms: Sahara offers many advantages compared to the dorms but most signiﬁ cant is the absolutely lowest rental rate for double occupancy studios for students in Tucson when you consider all the free services and amenities that are included in the rent. Our studio apartments are larger than the dorm rooms, include full kitchens and baths, roommate matching service, and we have onsite affordable hotel rooms available for family and friends. With all these advantages, consider checking us out before you write that dorm check. Compared to other properties: Sahara offers easy choices. Share a studio with full kitchen and bath or live in that same studio solo. Our single occupancy studios are some of the lowest priced in Tucson. Why take the chance of ending up with the “roommate(s) from hell” when you can have a studio apartment all to yourself for less? All students appreciate our 24/7 quiet environment, modern amenities, and added savings compared to other properties. Sahara Apartments advantages to maximize housing dollars: We deliver modern amenities, advanced safety and security features, comfort, and quiet environment unmatched by other properties.
