UNM researchers send tomatoes to space
Breaking Dawn at the SUB
By Nate Bernard @DailyLobo
University of New Mexico researchers sent tomatoes to space in an endeavor called the Trichoderma Associated Space Tomato Inoculation Experiment (TASTIE). On Tuesday, Jan. 30, the tomato seedlings were launched in a partially reusable Falcon 9 Block 5 rocket into space and joined the International Space Station (ISS) on Thursday, Feb. 1, according to Everyday Astronaut. The purpose of TASTIE is to analyze how these tomatoes will grow in space compared to how they grow on Earth. The fungus Trichoderma – common in all types of soils on Earth – will be utilized to study how the stress-resistant properties of the fungus impact the growth of tomatoes in space, according to UNM Newsroom. The experiment was done in collaboration with the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Researchers chose to use the Red Robin variety of tomatoes, according to the UW-Madison Gilroy Life Science Lab. The Red Robin tomato’s small size and fast growth accommodates the limited space of the ISS, David Hanson – UNM biology professor and lead TASTIE researcher said. “No one’s tried this sort of interaction in space with tomatoes,” Hanson said. On the ISS, astronauts will measure the conditions and growth of the tomatoes for two weeks. They will harvest and freeze plant material, then send the plants to researchers at UNM through a space capsule, Hanson said. Once UNM receives the frozen plant material, researchers will compare carbon dioxide isotopes of the TASTIE tomatoes and Earth-grown tomatoes to discover the experimented tomatoes’ efficiency, Hanson said. This research can aid longterm space missions by discovering the conditions that will maximize vegetable growth in space. “We really want to work towards being part of a team that has plants growing on the moon. That’s something that we expect to see in the next handful of years,” Hanson said. The launch initially suffered delays, pushing its initial launch date June 2023 to Jan. 29, 2024. The launch was delayed again until Jan. 30 due to necessary space capsule modifications,
Hanson said. Another problem arose during preparation when Hanson and his team almost ran out of liquid nitrogen – a freezing agent used in the experiment to freeze the tomatoes before sending them up. “The University is never out of nitrogen but they didn’t have any backup. Fortunately, we ended up being fast enough (to freeze the experimented material) that we didn’t run out,” Hanson said. The plant samples, Hanson said, are expected to be delivered to UNM by March, with the researchers’ findings complete three to six months after. The experiment is a part of UNM’s Grand Challenges Initiative, which aims to create sustainable space research opportunities at the University. Hanson hopes the experiment will help build resources for research on campus and encourage students and faculty to pursue space research at UNM. Hanson recommends students interested in space-related research to fill out the CHILI HOUSE application. The application is for UNM’s NASA Minority Innovation Challenges Institute for Discovery and Space — an undergraduate research project related to NASA’s Artemis mission, according to NASA minds. “Whether you’re a student who just started, or you’re a student who is just about ready to finish – if you’re interested in an experiment, internship or in what space jobs there are, we’d love to know what people want to know,” Hanson said.

Legislation similar to unconstitutional ordinance proposed in Santa Fe By Karina Bolaños @DailyLobo A New Mexico senator has proposed a bill that would make the act of seeking or providing roadside donations illegal. Similar City legislation was previously struck down in a court of appeals. In 2017, the City of Albuquerque tried to instate an ordinance that would ban the same. Courts later deemed the legislation a violation of Freedom of Speech in Martin v. City of Albuquerque. The current legislation, Senate Bill 248, is sponsored by Senator Leo Jaramillo (D). The Bill is scheduled to be heard on Monday, Feb. 5 by the Senate Health Public Affairs Committee and was deemed appropriate for the short legislative session on Thursday, Feb. 1. This bill is supported by the Governor of New Mexico, Michelle Lujan Grisham. One member of the unhoused community, Rasheed Fargiyev, discussed their emotions and experiences regarding the bill and ordinances prior. “This is people’s livelihoods –
this is how I survive, you know what I mean?” Fargiyev said. “Traditional public forums” are spaces that are often deemed as “open to political speech and debate,” according to Cornell Law. If passed, the bill will prohibit people from seeking and giving donations at spaces that are not a “traditional public forum,” such as sidewalks and curbs. Those who do could be charged with a petty misdemeanor and be liable for imprisonment of up to six months or forced to pay a fine of up to $500. The goal of the potential ban is to “(increase) public safety and vehicular efficiency,” according to Lujan Grisham’s press release. The unhoused population has risen by 6% since 2017. In New Mexico, around 12 people out of every 10,000 were experiencing homelessness in 2022, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness. The American Civil Liberties Union originally challenged the 2017 ordinance in Martin v. City of Albuquerque. Barron Jones – investigation and research manager for the ACLU of New Mexico – is wary of the proposed state legislation. “If SB 248 becomes law, it will
create obstacles that make it difficult to obtain many of the things that you and I take for granted – like fresh water, food and shelter – for some of our less fortunate community members,” Jones said. There have already been arrests for “the illegal use of public spaces,” Jones said. He said that since August, he has seen a sharp incline of people housed in jails like the Metropolitan Detention Center. Many people experiencing homelessness, Fargiyev said, are frequently down on their luck, often have mental health issues that have not been addressed and need these donations as a short-term solution. Regarding the ways being unhoused has been criminalized, Fargiyev recounted a time they were arrested for sleeping in a public space. “I used to sleep at UNM because it was one of the safest places, and one of the only spaces that would keep you from freezing to death. They were looking for people like me, and they were putting them in jail for (sleeping) there,” Fargiyev said. Facing fines and imprisonment

Guard Aniyah Augmon (#12) screams for an opening at The Pit on Saturday, Feb. 3.
By Thomas Bulger @thomasbulger10 The University of New Mexico’s women’s basketball team lost to the University of Nevada Las Vegas 62-56 on Saturday, Feb 3. Both teams were on winning streaks, UNLV improved to four straight wins and ended UNM’s five-game winning streak. UNM fell to 16-7 overall and 7-3 in conference play – putting them in third place in the standings past the halfway mark of the season. The Lobos played well but fell a couple shots short of sweeping the back-to-back conference champs. Going back to the 2022-23 season, the Rebels are 30-1 against Mountain West opponents, including the conference tournament with their one loss coming from the Lobos a few weeks ago. Likely to go up against each other in the conference tournament, as the top two seeds, Nyah Wilson said the team will be ready for anyone. “I’m not backing down from any challenge just knowing that we are a good team. I love how we can compete and just stay together,”
Wilson said. UNM shot poorly from the three-point line, going 4-19 and went 4-12 on free throws. Their defense kept the game close. They forced 14 turnovers and held the Rebels to 40% overall, shooting on 58 shots. The Lobos had three players in double-digit scoring. Wilson led the team with a career high 25 points. Aniyah Augmon had 15 points, four rebounds and four steals. Vianè Cumber scored 12 points and grabbed six rebounds. Desi-Rae Young dominated the game for the Rebels; she had 27 points and 10 rebounds. Nneka Obiazor was the other Rebel in double-digit scoring with 11 points. Wilson scored the first points of the game with a drive to the basket for a layup but it led to a 10-0 run from the Rebels. Ashley Scoggin hit on a three-pointer in transition to force a timeout by UNM. Wilson ended the near five-minute Lobo scoring drought with a layup. UNM was down 11-6 at the end of the first quarter. Augmon ended a 7-0 run from the Rebels with a layup, but UNM continued to have difficulty scoring. They were down 19-10 4:53 left in the half.
Aaron Beltran/ Daily Lobot
Out of the timeout, Rebel Kiara Jackson made a three-pointer to extend their lead. After starting the game 0-7 as a team, Cumber and Augmon hit back-to-back three-pointers to close the half on a 6-0 run. Lobos were down 25-20. At halftime as part of National Girls & Women in Sports Day, team members from New Mexico United, Albuquerque Isotopes, Lobo athletics and other organizations across the city were honored. Alumni from the women’s basketball team, as well as active Lobos from the cheer, swimming and diving, softball, soccer, volleyball, golf and dance teams were celebrated – receiving applause from the fans. Wilson made a three-pointer and Augmon earned a layup to tie the game, but Obiazor made a three-pointer for the Rebels. UNM did not let the shot slow down its momentum; they were down 34-33 at the media timeout with 4:35 left in the quarter. Out of the timeout with a layup, Wilson gave the Lobos their first lead since 2-0 at the start of the game. She then pushed the lead to three with another drive to the basket. Rebel Young tied it up as she was fouled on a basket – an and-1 free throw – and Alyssa Brown gave the Rebels the lead with a free throw. UNM was down 40-39 at the end of the third quarter. The Rebels scored on their first

three possessions of the quarter to prompt a Lobo timeout down 48-43 with 8:01 left in the game. Lobos’ Augmon and Wilson had back-to-back layups but Wilson missed her and-1 free throw to keep the Lobos down one, and Young made another three-pointer to protect their lead. The Lobos were down 51-47 with 4:41 left in the game. Out of the media timeout, Wilson shot two free throws and made both of them – the first basket made by a free throw from the Lobos. Cumber tied the game up with a pair of free throws of her own, but the Rebels exploded for a 7-0 run highlighted by a Young layup with an and-1 free throw. Cumber made a threepointer to end the run. UNM called a timeout with 1:56 remaining and down 58-54. With 1:14 left, the Lobos forced a shot clock violation. Wilson was fouled on her way to the basket but missed both free throws. Young and Augmon both made baskets to keep the lead to four, but Scoggin beat the Lobo press to put the Rebels up six with 28.5 seconds left in the game. UNM were unable to get another shot off and lost 62-56.
Head Coach Mike Bradbury didn’t get the outcome he wanted but was happy with how the team is competing against the top team in the conference and stuck to their defensive identity. “We are who we are. We are really good when we make shots, but we’re not bad when we don’t. This team has been great. We’re going to play to our identity … we got to make these games rock fights and that’s what we did,” Bradbury said. He went on to talk about how similar the two games were this season. “I mean, the game was exactly the same, (but) they made the shots in the last three minutes and we didn’t, and that was the difference between the two games. And give them credit. They made them,” Bradbury said. The Lobos will go on to play in California against San Diego State on Wednesday, Feb. 7. Thomas Bulger is the sports editor for the Daily Lobo.

It’s no secret that the environment has been troubled for quite a long time now. Humans, unfortunately, do not live in an environment of endless resources. However, sustainability practices are becoming increasingly more common – such as recycling, composting or thrifting. Evidently, not all sustainable practices are created equal. An absence from the recent media may cause someone to see two reusable water bottles – such as a Serborni bottle from Amazon and a Stanley bottle – but see no difference. The former water bottle is deemed a “dupe” by the public – a more affordable option compared to the latter. These bottles both hold beverages, maintain temperature, are sleek and are convenient.
Seemingly, the main difference is that they vary in price and, oddly enough, levels of popularity. A Stanley cup has become a necessary, or even crucial, purchase for many millennials and members of Gen Z. Selling for an average of $35 and above per unit, Stanley cups are outrageously expensive for what they are and have become a status symbol, even around UNM. A recent article by Forbes questioned the cup’s popularity and found that many TikTok users have been buying Stanleys mainly to accessorize. Since the craze grew, young kids from elementary to middle school have reported being bullied for having non-Stanley cups, according to the New York Post. Strangest of all, many people posted themselves camped outside of Target stores, some overnight, for a chance at a limited edition version of the cup,
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2024 / PAGE 3 according to the New York Times. Why this cup? Especially following the 2016 Hydro Flask craze. The New York Times suggested as early as 2022 – when the cup first started to flood TikTok’s “For You” Page – that the popularity originated from a marketing makeover, which saw the cups hit shelves in more trendy, fashionable colors. These colors were ones cleverly coined “pale millennial shades” by reporter Danya Issawi. Hydro Flasks also came in tons of trendy colors, and some are even considered dupes for Stanleys. Did those who bought into that trend dump their cups for Stanleys? Based on the massive collections by passionate Stanley enthusiasts, it seems like these trends have little to do with preservation and longevity, and more to do with fastfashion – temporary trends. The HydroFlask craze was, to put it bluntly, a bit embarrassing – both to witness and be excluded from. Trends, some as simple as a popular water bottle, being outrageously expensive and inaccessible to those without the money to spend are somewhat demeaning. There’s an odd feeling of judgment, and financial inequality, for something very simple. Sustainability aside, these
cups are must-haves because everyone else has them. They’re trendy. This desire for a Stanley may just be like every other trend that comes and goes. However, this massive uptick in Stanley purchases does play a role in fresh water preservation, as well as plastic consumption. Many students around campus can be seen carrying their Stanleys. Paolo Serino, a film major at the University of New Mexico, did not camp outside of a Target. “I was gifted a Stanley cup over the holidays, and although it’s functional, the hype is not deserved,” Serino said. A positive aspect of these cups is that they encourage people to reduce waste. As a supporter of sustainability practices, Serino said that they can be a great step, but it has been executed in a distasteful way. Many buyers find a need to have multiples of the product where one should suffice, leading to wasteful consumption. “The business model of water bottles being collectibles and having prices become artificially inflated goes against the sustainable appeal entirely,” Serino said. The idea of sustainability should be something accessible to all – especially if the goal is to

University of New Mexico guard Jaelen House (#10) brings energy to the crowd during the game against Boise State at The Pit on Wednesday, Jan. 31.
By BillyJack Davidson @BillyJackDL The Lobo men’s basketball team hosted the Boise State Broncos on Wednesday, Jan. 31 and it saw the end of their four-game winning streak. The Broncos won 86-78 and are the only team this season that have been able to take down the Lobos at home. The Lobos fell to 18-4 overall and 6-3 in conference play. They are in third place in the standings through Feb. 1. The game started off with the Lobos breaking away with the score in the first five minutes. This came from Jamal Mashburn Jr. (#5), who was able to secure a pair of three-point shots. But the Broncos were quickly able to come back and keep up the pace. The Lobos didn’t give in, as Donovan Dent (#2) was able to have a few

good drives into the paint. Mustapha Amzil (#22) had a nice drive into the paint while attempting a layup, but was fouled and sent to the line to shoot two free throws. From that point, the Broncos took control with concise and consistent plays. The Lobos were still up 20-19 with 10:37 remaining in the half. The Broncos were able to keep that momentum going as the half went on. Cam Martin (#31) and Jace Whiting’s (#15) offensive rebounding and drives were solid. The Broncos momentum frazzled the Lobos and they saw a decline in the number of shots they were making. With five minutes left in the half, Dent was able to make a critical three-point basket and brought the fans back into the game, cheering harder than ever. Dent was able to sneak a quick pass to Nelly Junior Joseph (#23), who scored a basket. Overall, Dent had a great game with a career high of 31 points. He made 12 of his 18 and six out of
By Elizabeth Secor @esecor2003 Last semester, The University of New Mexico Esports Club put together a team of seven players to compete in the Collegiate Cephalopod Association’s Division 5 Championship for Splatoon 3. After two months of competing and a record of 7-1, the team won the national championship in December. Fernando Loya Avila – gamer tag “Bean” – started the team. The experience of playing competitively, they said, was different from casual play with friends where there are no prizes and it is just for fun and leveling up. “(For) competition, you’re doing it to be recognized. You want to be the best of the best, it is not just casual,” Loya Avila said. “You have to think of strategies to have communication, which just does not happen when you’re playing casually.”
seven free throws. Soon after the Broncos responded and O’Mar Stanley (#1) was able to get his own assisted dunk, Stanley and Tyson Degenhart (#2) showed off great rebounding throughout the half, as did Lobo JT Toppin (#15), who had the most for the half at nine. He finished the game with 15. Within the last 60 seconds of the half, Jemarl Baker Jr. (#0) came onto the court and was able to make a great shot from the three-point line, but it wasn’t enough to overtake the Broncos. By the end of the half, the Broncos were up 42-38. The second half started with the Lobos coming out with renewed energy and confidence.Toppin came out with a blaze of great plays, earning three steals, two blocks and a three-point basket. Dent also came out a skillful layup, and continued to pressure the offense. Within the first few minutes, the Lobos were able to bring back the The Splatoon 3 team consisted of seven players: Loya Avila, Sammy Ortega, Aaron Torres, Axel Mata, Zamari Ross, Leticia Diaz and Tony Devens. Ortega – gamer tag “KKArter” – liked the transition from playing the game casually to playing as a team. “There’s two different worlds inside the game itself – one where you have to fight everyone, including everyone on your team, and one where you get to work with these people,” Ortega said. “That’s what I like – to get to work with people, and I don’t have to feel like I’m alone in the game, so to speak.” The change in experience was why Ortega joined the team. “I wanted to see what’s behind the screens. A big thing for me is watching people and seeing if they can get better. So, being able to see that in-person is a different experience,” Ortega said. Loya remembers the moment of winning the competition and how

Rice also played his career game in points, shooting 12-20 from the field and 7-14 from the three-point line. He finished with 35 points. Head Coach Richard Pitino commended the Broncos and Rice after the loss; while he is not happy with the game, he said it was just one loss with another half of the conference to play. “First and foremost, credit to Boise State. I think they played terrific. Max Rice just continues to get at us, among other players who just played solid tonight,” Pitino said. Boise State called a timeout up 5753. Jaelen House (#10) was able to make his first basket, electrifying the crowd with 10:13 left in the game. Dent was able to drive to the basket, and Mashburn Jr. scored another couple of three-point

shots, but they were unable to keep up on the defensive end. More and more fouls were called on House and Dent. With only three minutes left in the match, Coach Pitino called a timeout. The University of New Mexico lost 86-78. One critical aspect of the game was the lack of turnovers that the Lobos were able to get on the Broncos, averaging 16.1 a game so far, but only had seven against Boise. The Lobos will go on to play against the Wyoming Cowboys in Laramie after a six-day break on Tuesday, Feb. 6.

Local authors went interstellar in 2023
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2024 / PAGE 5
By Kelsa Mendoza @kelsar4in
2023 was a big year for bookworms everywhere. This year concluded strongly with a plethora of bestsellers worldwide and with some true gems from local New Mexican authors. Sci-fi lovers were indulged with new unique titles from local authors Sarena Ulibarri and Ness Brown who crafted stories about the extraterrestrial and other space oddities. Both have had success in publication and have plans to expand their authorship in the future, they said. Ulibarri, a University of New Mexico alumna, has been publishing since 2012 and released two books in 2023. She published her novel “Steel Tree” in December – a sci-fi retelling of the Nutcracker. She was inspired to take this classical ballet’s story into a new direction thanks to her experience seeing different variations of the performance over the course of several years, Ulibarri said. “It took me a couple years to get it written and come up with the context that makes the science-fiction setting make sense … To transfer (The Nutcracker) to the far future with robots and aliens. I had a lot of fun writing it,” Ulibarri said. In 2024, Ulibarri said she has a few stories being slated and going on submission. Brown is an astrophysicist-intraining and released their novel “The Scourge Between the Stars” last April; Brown said they have received a warm welcome to the publishing world.

Their studies about the universe and the unknown have allowed them to exercise their muscle of curiosity and creativity, Brown said, which they feel is respected in their writing. Their background in the science of space allows them to bring expertise to the sci-fi genre, they said. Their novel follows Jacklyn Albright – acting captain of starship “Calypso” – and her crew as they travel back to Earth after a failed mission. Through the threats of interstellar space travel, the crew comes to realize that they may have brought back something extraterrestrial with them on-board. “Before I entered grad school, I was a lecturer for six years, and I taught a course called ‘Life in the Universe,’ which is all about astrobiology and the search for life in space. Some of the ideas that are present in ‘The Scourge Between the Stars’ come directly from my course material and
from conversations I had with my students,” Brown said. Brown has several projects in flux and hopes to announce their project involving fungal horror in 2024. “I think the next project will (include) zombie fungus … I hope people are interested in seeing a ‘Last of Us’ sort of scenario (in) a different world,” Brown said. Brown said they are excited to see authors from marginalized backgrounds in the publishing space. “Something near and dear to me in publishing is making sure we elevate stories that haven’t been heard before or typically don’t get attention. I think it makes storytelling more robust and it’s better for the health and success of storytelling in the future,” Brown said. With local authors’ new plans on the horizon and recent releases on the shelves, 2023 was a great way to

‘Twilight’ comes to campus in double feature By Marcela Johnson @DailyLobo The Southwest Film Center (SWFC) held a double feature on Saturday, Feb. 3 of “Twilight: Breaking Dawn” parts 1 and 2, showing that community that can be found both in movies and in a movie theater. The Student Union Building theater was decorated with “Twilight” references and filled with “Twilight”inspired outfits. The event included “blood bags” – fake blood bags filled with Sprite, red food coloring and sparkles, which were reserved for the first ten attendees. Theatre manager Stefan Rossell explained that the blood bags were meant to be an incentive to moviegoers to come early, and it worked. Over ten people were at the doors before they opened officially. The first person in line was University of New Mexico student Gracie Bauman, who said that her group of friends had been preparing for the showing. Bauman explained that part of the popularity comes from the community that surrounds the movies. She said that her sister got her interested originally.
“We just spent the last couple of weeks watching all of (the movies) to get ready,” Bauman said. “We (came) to the conclusion that if it wasn’t a saga – and it was just the first (movie) – it would not be as popular.” UNM student and SWFC regular Willow Glenn said that she has been a fan of the saga since she was 14 and has written six episodes of a “Twilight” fanfiction television series. “It’s a horrible movie – it’s the best movie, duality,” Glenn said. “I’m proud they put it in the theater because the best part was people’s reactions.” The double feature was shown in collaboration with UNM’s chapter of Planned Parenthood’s Generation Action. Vice President Marysa Apodaca said that the organization was excited to collaborate on the movies as many of their members enjoy the series. “With this collaboration, we’re hoping to get our name out there – not only as a student organization, but as a resource on campus, and provide a safe space to discuss topics around reproductive health and sexual education,” Apodaca said. SWFC Executive Director, Rylee Norman, said that collaborators
typically will pick the movie that they want to work on from the upcoming schedule, then table at the event, alongside providing concessions. “We want to reach more people when it comes to Generation Action. When you’re coming to a fun event and get to hear about this awesome organization, I think it’s better received (and) reaches more people that way,” Norman said. Generation Action has worked with the SWFC twice before – the first time during their annual Sex Week in 2022 showing “Portrait of a Lady on Fire.” Rossell designed the film lineup for this semester. When designing a lineup, the staff takes into consideration other events on campus as well as holidays, Norman said. Rosell explained that they chose to do a double feature because it felt more social and communityoriented. They did not want to make people wait another night for the second part, Rosell said. This semester, Norman said they would start with college films, move into romance, then into realistic and thought-provoking, then animation and end with futuristic films.
The SWFC hopes to create a space where people can hang out without having to spend money, Norman said. When she became Executive Director, Norman stopped charging for admission and concessions at the showings. “We want to be a third space where you do not have to pay to be there and have fun,” Norman said. “You can come with your friends (or) come and make friends and have community (without worrying) about finances or anything like that.” Bauman said that her group usually gets together to watch movies, and then goes to La Posada afterwards. “It’s great because you get to pass by them every time you go past the concessions. You get information (about the program) and you don’t have to pay,” Bauman said. “It’s free which makes it easier to come and see movies rather than go to a movie theater.”

LoboAlert issued for traffic following stabbing By Lily Alexander & Lauren Lifke @llilyalexander @lauren_lifke &
On Friday, Jan. 26, a stabbing occurred inside the Golden Pride restaurant on Lomas Blvd. N.E. near the University of New Mexico campus. The UNM Police Department issued a LoboAlert for traffic following the incident. Employee Ethan Sheppard reportedly stabbed his coworker, an adult male, at about 1:45 p.m., while they were both working. The victim was transported to UNM Hospital and later died from his injuries, according to an Albuquerque Police Department news release. UNM Police Department issued a LoboAlert at 6:25 p.m. advising the campus community of police presence in the area. A second alert was issued at 10:45 p.m. advising that APD had cleared the area. UNMPD’s Public Information Officer, Lieutenant Larry Bitsoih, said in a statement that the alert was issued due to the police presence possibly impacting heavy pedestrian and vehicle traffic at that time of day. “Within two minutes, APD officers were on scene and had the only suspect in custody,” Bitsoih said. UNMPD was not involved in the investigation, Bitsoih said. Their dispatcher received information that APD was responding to a stabbing through APD’s radio frequency at about 1:46 p.m. The dispatcher then notified the dayshift sergeant. “We did advise early on that a

suspect was in custody and there was no apparent danger,” APD Director of Communications Gilbert Gallegos said in a statement. The LoboAlert came after UNMPD’s swing-shift sergeant went to the scene for an update on the situation and to offer assistance and coordinate traffic control. When APD was still processing the scene after multiple hours, the sergeant informed Lieutenant Tim Stump, who issued the alert, according to Bitsoih. Per the federal Clery Act, universities should issue emergency notifications (or LoboAlerts at UNM) in response to incidents on campus that pose an immediate threat to students or staff. UNM’s On-Campus Clery Geography does not include Golden Pride. However, the area surrounding the restaurant is part of the University’s Public Property Clery Geography. “UNM’s Public Property Clery Geography includes roadways, including the sidewalk on both sides of these streets that directly border UNM’s campus,” the OEO website reads, followed by a list of streets. Sheppard was charged with an
open count of murder in the first degree on Jan. 26. Shannon Rainosek – Chief Executive Officer of Golden Pride Restaurants – said in a media statement that Golden Pride has taken steps to support its team, including providing employees with access to counseling services and providing wages to employees during the time the restaurant was temporarily closed. “We ask for understanding and respect for the privacy of all those affected by this tragedy,” Rainosek said.

Legislation from page 1 while being unhoused, Fargiyev said, is not an uncommon experience. “You can’t arrest your way out of a public health crisis,” Jones said. The state must look at the root causes of why people are unhoused, rather than criminalizing

asking for donations and support, Jones said. Lujan Grisham’s Senior Public Safety Advisor, Benjamin Baker, did not respond to request for comment. “Instead of passing legislation that criminalizes the less fortunate – as a
state and as community members – we should spend our time and energy investing in evidence-based solutions such as affordable housing, behavioral health care, job training,” Jones said.

make a large enough impact to support the environment – and the exclusivity and charge of the Stanley craze do not support that overall goal. Any small step is a good step. It shouldn’t have to be a trendy step, especially if these cups aren’t without flaws. Another student, Kyle Tarango,
has grown a love-hate relationship with his Stanley. He told a horror story of his cup having a seal leak and consequently ruining his laptop with water damage. This is not an isolated issue, according to the New York Times article that explains the leaky design flaw of many of the cups, and it also mentions cheaper,
higher-quality dupes. If reusable and sustainable products are something you’re looking for, definitely go for it and accessorize with your bottle of choice however desired – but don’t camp outside of a Target or bully your peers for having a cup with a different logo.
Doing your part to help cut down plastic waste and making sure you stay hydrated is important, but there’s no reason to treat these things as anything more than they are: cups.
