The Independent Voice of UNM since 1895

Fee Board delays final deliberations UNM mourns professor, historian by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu

David L. Craven

by Nathan Farmer

news@dailylobo.com Distinguished professor of art history Dr. David L. Craven, 60, died Saturday from an apparent heart attack while playing tennis, his family said. Craven became a professor at UNM in 1993 and was the fine arts department chair for two years. He published 10 books and more than 150 articles in scholarly journals. A memor ial ser vice is planned for Craven on Friday at 2 p.m. at UNM’s Alumni Chapel. Nancy Treviso, an administrator in the art and art history department, said the department has lost a unique professor. “He was a wonderful chair and a wonderful mentor and teacher and he will be missed in this department,” she said. “Someone with that caliber of knowledge, we can’t replace him.” Craven received his distinguished professor title in 2007 while at UNM. He was fluent in four languages and traveled the world giving speeches at more than 100 universities. Kirsten Buick, asso ciate professor and chair at the art and art history department, said Craven was known around the world for his work in the art history field. “David was a man of letters and a champion for social causes, beloved by all who knew him for his keen intel lect, genuine sense of compassion and desire to help others,” Buick told UNM Today. “He was rec og nized by his peers as one of the most informed and inci sive art historians in the world.” Theresa Avila, a graduate

The Student Fee Review Board was unable to allocate student fees after a second round of deliberations by midnight Monday. GPSA President and Chair of the Board Katie Richardson said the board would meet as many times as necessary. “We will stay as long as we need to give due diligence to allocating student fees,” she said. The student fees for the 2013 fiscal year have yet to be decided. The board intends to reconvene for a third meeting Wednesday at 8 a.m. in the ASUNM conference room. The Student Fee Review Board will allocate more than $11 million in student fees to the 27 organizations that requested funding. Board member and ASUNM Student Court Chief Justice Dylan Hoffman asked the board to carefully consider which organizations deserve funding. “The point of the issue isn’t what the group does, or how helpful they are, but what is the point of student fees, what should they fund?” he said. Hoffman said the administration should provide funding to more organizations to cut back on student fees. “All of these organizations

The Student Fee Review Board held its second round of deliberations Monday night, but the SFRB controls less than half the total fees students pay to attend UNM. Each undergraduate student pays $1,158 for fiscal year 2012 in student fees, said Andrew Cullen associate vice president of Planning, Budget and Analysis. Each student pays a $487.50 student activity fee, and this is the money the SFRB allocates to various organizations around campus. A $114 fee pays for technological services such as the banner system. A $40 graduate allocation fund goes toward organizations such as ethnic centers and the women’s resource center, Cullen said. The largest chunk of student fee money goes toward UNM facilities. The facilities fee was instituted to repay bond issues dating back to 1992 that went toward the construction of new buildings and renovations of old ones. The latest bond issue, in 2007, funded projects such as the renovations of Mitchell Hall, the UNM Alumni building and Hodgin Hall, as well as renovations to the chemistry buildings and the engineering chair’s office. The 2007 bond issue funded $27.4 million worth of projects, and the $91.41

million bond issued in 2005 funded projects such as compact shelving in Zimmerman Library and the renovation of the Communication and Journalism building. The Lottery Scholarship does not pay for student fees, and GPSA President Katie Richardson said the University is becoming increasingly reliant on student fees, which could prevent some students from being able to obtain an education at UNM. “Fees over time have taken a larger and larger burden in supporting the University,” she said. “Academic buildings on campus should be funded through state appropriations, not student fees.” ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal said she isn’t sure student fees should be used to pay off old debts. “I’m not really sure what I think about the facilities fee,” Roybal said. Cullen said his office has not needed to raise student fees to pay for the 2007 bond issue because UNM saw a surge in enrollment and therefore more student fees have been rolling in. However, he said he didn’t have data of past breakdowns of student fees available when this reporter spoke to him around 6 p.m. Monday night. “We’ve been really, really prudent in spending these dollars,” he said. “We’ve really been milking it for all it’s worth.”

Know the basics

1

You must pay taxes if you have any income — from a full-time job to a summer internship. You must also have some source of income to get tax credits, which are sums of money deducted from your taxes, Farmer said. You can file both state and federal taxes for free online through the IRS website and your state taxes at your resident state’s taxation and revenue website. Private accountants and tax associates can help students make sure they get every dollar they deserve, but often charge a fee for their services.

2

Keep track of your expenses

To get as many credits as you can, students should keep receipts and other documents as proof of out-of-pocket, school-related purchases, which can be deducted. This includes books, lab fees, student health fees, and transportation fees to and from school. These expenses, as well as tuition, scholarships and grants, should be put on a 1098T form. These forms, which catalogue student expenses, are mailed to students at the end of each year and are also available from the UNM Bursar’s Office. “It’s easier for me to look at your expenses and decide what’s deductible and what’s not,” Farmer said. She said it’s a good idea to scan or copy receipts as they can fade in sunlight.

If your filing status is... Dependent

Then file a return if your gross income was at least... $950

Single

$9,500

Head of household

$12,200

Married, filing jointly

$19,000

Married, filing separately

$3,700

According to the Internal Revenue Service, verify your status and all requirements with tax agencies before filing.

Look into governmentoffered education credits

The American Opportunity Credit and Lifetime Learning Tax Credit are two tax credits the government offers students. The AOC is available for the first four years a student is enrolled in college. You can get up to $2,500 of credit reduced from your tax form, but only around half of it is refundable. This means that it can reduce your taxes to zero, and if the credit is more than your taxes, up to half of the excess can be refunded to you. The LLTC is available to undergraduate or graduate students who take at least one class from an accredited school and is available for an unlimited number of years. The maximum credit for the LLTC is $2,000. This credit is non-refundable, meaning it can reduce taxes owed to zero, but the excess will not be refunded to you.

Make sure you are not claimed as a dependent

If your parents claim you as a dependent and you’re paying tuition, you are not eligible for education credits, Reiss said. “I had someone who ran into that problem,” she said. “She was working part-time and paying her tuition, but her grandparents wanted to claim her as a dependent. Technically, they can’t take (credits) if they didn’t pay (her tuition).” Alternately, parents are eligible for tax credits for students attending college if they claim them as dependants.

SFRB from PAGE 1

The board previously was unable to agree on how to allocate student fees by the end of the Feb. 8 meeting and adjourned at 10:30 p.m, after four hours of debate. Richardson said the Feb. 8 deliberations stalled in debates over small allocations. “I think what frustrated me about Wednesday is we ended up in a prolonged conversation about seven cents.” Non-voting board member and GPSA Representative Matthew Rush called on the board to make targeted funding recommendations, suggestions which would specify how the money going to each organization

should be spent. But board member and ASUNM Chief of Staff Cassie Thompson said allowing organizations flexibility is the best way to ensure the money is spent most effectively. “We could recommend it to specific programs, but I think Moira (Gerety, deputy chief information officer for IT) and her team can figure out what fees can best go to,” she said. “We could specifically allocate it to certain things, but I think being flexible is better.” Full coverage of funding for each organization will be available in the Thursday edition of the Daily Lobo.

Craven from PAGE 1 student at UNM, said she studied under Craven for the past 10 years and is shocked by the loss. “I’m devastated; as a professor I considered him to be generous and supportive and he is irreplaceable,” she said. “The fact that this happened, I don’t think anybody anticipated or prepared for it.”

Avila will be graduating in May with a doctorate in art history specializing in Mexican art, and said she plans to finish her degree as a tribute to Craven. “I am going to try and work towards (graduating) in his honor,” she said. “I am just really sad he won’t be able to see me reach our goal.”

MWC forms new conference Sushi & Sake 338-2424 426 Ko rean BBQ 338-2 by Nathan Farmer

sports@dailylobo.com

Lobo Athletics will be leaving the Mountain West Conference to join a newly formed conference that spans five time zones. UNM will still compete in the MWC for the 2012-2013 year, but it will merge with at least 15 other teams from the MWC and Conference USA in the 2013-2014 season in the new conference that has yet to be named. The MWC ceases to exist after the 2012-2013 season. The conference may expand to include as many as 24 teams within the next year (See graphic for complete list). All of UNM’s athletic teams will be competing in the new conference. UNM President David Schmidly took part in the meetings that formed the conference this weekend in Dallas, Texas. He said UNM had to adapt quickly to the changes in college athletics so the teams won’t be on the outside looking in during future seasons. “The landscape of collegiate athletics has been changing rapidly and dramatically,” Schmidly said. “UNM is excited to be part of this new association. It fits well

with our concept of athletics and conference affiliation.” After losing BYU and Utah from the MWC last season, San Diego State and Boise State followed the lead and will be leaving the conference to join the Big East this upcoming season, while TCU will be joining the Big 12. Vice President of Athletics Paul Krebs said that with the changing of conferences, it was very important for UNM to attempt to stay in a strong conference. “In the very dynamic landscape of intercollegiate athletics and conference realignment, this proactive move creates stability for UNM while preserving our traditional rivalries and conference partners,” Krebs said. Krebs said he was confident this merger would make Lobo Athletics stronger and bring UNM more competition. “While there are many details to be worked out, I am very optimistic about the future.” Hawaii will be joining the conference on a football basis only. The conference will bring back rivalries with UTEP, Rice and Tulsa, who used to compete against UNM

in the Western Athletic Conference. The Lobos have been in the MWC since 1999 and this will be the fifth athletic conference the UNM has competed in since its athletic program started in 1932. Head football coach Bob Davie said the change in conference is important for UNM because it can continue to play teams that it has had long-standing rivalries with in the past. “Our alignment with Conference USA is an exciting opportunity for us and the Mountain West, moving forward,” Davie said. “With the potential geographical breakdowns, we can keep our old, traditional rivalries and build new ones.” With 16 teams, the conference will be most likely broken into two separate divisions, with a conference championship game between the winners of each division to find the best team. Davie said having a conference championship is something that will be an extra goal for the football program. “The potential of having a championship game is exciting for all of us involved with the new league,” he said.

With the help of the National Guard, Tijerina was arrested and eventually spent about three years in prison. Activists credit that episode for bringing to light the issues surrounding land grants. Moises Morales, 65, a rancher in Rio Arriba County, was a teenager when he participated in the courthouse raid. Today, he said, the movement has shifted from guns to legal briefs. “We’re armed with knowledge and education,” he said. “We didn’t have that before.” In January, Morales and a group of northern New Mexico ranchers sued the U.S. Forest Service over its decision to limit grazing on historic land grant areas. They point to a 1972 Forest Service policy that emerged after the courthouse raid over unresolved land grant issues. The policy noted the relationship that Hispanic residents of northern New Mexico had with the land, and declared their culture a resource that must be recognized when setting agency objectives and policies. The Forest Service declined to comment on the pending litigation.

SANTA FE — Once shunned and largely ignored, Hispanic ranchers and other descendants of people who received Spanish land grants are flexing their political muscles in New Mexico. In recent years, the activists have persuaded state lawmakers to approve the creation of new towns based on the boundaries of the 200-year-old grants. They have held forums around the state and raised money for a major lawsuit against the U.S. Forest Service over long-standing land use disputes. It’s a dramatic change from 45 years ago, when a group of frustrated, armed Mexican-American ranchers raided a courthouse in Tierra Amarilla, N.M., after authorities arrested activists for meeting over land grants issues. David Sanchez, a 52-year-old rancher in Chama Valley, said ranchers and land grant descendants know their rights and have become better organized to battle what they view as continuing discrimination since the signing of the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended

the Mexican-American War. For years, land-grant activists have claimed the U.S. government stole millions of acres from Latinos following the war. The United States pledged in the treaty to respect private land holdings, including land grants made under the Spanish and Mexican governments. However, the U.S. government didn’t recognize many of those grants in New Mexico, and courts have routinely turned away complaints made by displaced Hispanic families. It wasn’t until 1967 that the issue gained international attention, when Chicano Movement leader Reies Lopez Tijerina and a band of armed followers raided the courthouse in Tierra Amarilla. The group was attempting a citizen’s arrest of thenDistrict Attorney Alfonso Sanchez after eight members of Tijerina’s group were arrested a few days earlier. Sanchez wasn’t at the courthouse at the time. But during the raid, the group shot and wounded a state police officer and jailer, beat a deputy and took the sheriff and a reporter hostage. They later escaped.

Letter ‘Great teacher, mentor and friend’ not forgotten Editor, I just heard about the sudden death of David Craven over the weekend. I don’t call him a “distinguished professor and nationally and internationally known and respected art history scholar, author and teacher.” I think of him as my friend David. David often stopped to chat at my front desk as he walked in and out of the art and art history office. He called me “Majority,” and I know he meant it as a clever nickname that probably began by accident. Or he wanted the political opinions we often shared to be in the majority. He was passionate about his ideals and opinions — too much so sometimes. His tumultuous and prematurely ended chairmanship of the department during the last school year came too soon for him. When he was chair, he brought renowned art critic and author Dave Hickey and his wife, curator and art history professor Libby Lumpkin, to teach at UNM. He brought in Assistant Professor Kathy Cyman to create an Arita (Japanese) ceramics area in Art Studio. He also presided over the first full department review in 10 years, and everyone in the department received high praise from the outside reviewers. David traveled extensively and frequently to speak and work and study. He spoke Spanish, German and French. Last summer he traveled to Europe and Central America. He was particularly interested in the politics and culture of Nicaragua. He spent the winter holidays in North Carolina with his mother and other relatives. For me, David was easy to work for and easy to talk to, even though I am officially a low-level employee here. He was generous, worked very hard and was sometimes distracted, but wasn’t quite an absentminded professor. His death was a great surprise because he seemed very healthy and robust. My condolences go to his family, friends, fellow staff, faculty and his students, who have lost a great teacher, mentor and friend. Marjorie Crow UNM staff

Daily actions, decisions reaffirm faltering faith Dear Wooley, I didn’t grow up in church, but came to Christ when I was in high school. I’ve since come to college, and for a while, I was very heavily involved in my relationship with God. I had a great church near campus I attended regularly. Well, about a year ago, I left that church and stopped praying because of some events that happened in my life. Never did I really doubt that God wasn’t there. I just was angry at Him. Here’s my question: I’ve been struggling with my faith and have begun to want to resume practicing, but I don’t know if I have enough faith to pray again, especially in the middle of a busy semester. How do I put my faith in something and rebuild my faith again? -Faithfully Frustrated Dear Faithfully, In no way can I attempt to know everything about God or faith or religious things. I don’t, so I write this response humbly, offering my point of view, hoping it helps. Everyone has faith. That may be a bold statement, but it’s not, really. We all put our faith in something. That’s actually the definition of faith. According to Webster’s, faith is “confidence or trust in a person or thing.” I’m not a fan of that definition because it excludes atheists. They have faith; they just choose to not put it in any deity. Everyone has faith: in God, in themselves, in someone or something. As far as building your faith, that’s a very personal and conscious choice to make. I’d suggest you find others who believe the same as you do. Just by being around them, your faith will probably be strengthened. If you feel comfortable, talk to them about your feelings, and perhaps they can help. Also, the decisions you make in regards to how you choose to use your time can

increase your faith. The actions you make and the things that you see and believe because you experience them regularly can have the same effect. This doesn’t just apply to spiritual matters. When I was little, I would grab the brown bag with my name written on it from the counter top and toss it into my backpack before school. I never actually looked into the bag until lunchtime, but I had faith that my mom had packed my lunch. My faith in this became so strong that it just became part of me and how I saw the world. When I hit middle school and had to make my own lunch, my faith in my midday meal then turned to myself. What I’m getting at is that faith is created and reinforced by daily choices.

Only act on crush on teacher at semester’s end Dear Wooley, For the first time in my college career, I have a really hot teaching assistant. He always makes me laugh and is really helpful with all the material, but I also don’t want to get him in trouble with the instructor if we were to start going out. Is there a good, secret way to go about this? -Hot for Teacher (Assistant) Dear Hot for Teacher, Teaching assistant/instructor crushes are typically frowned upon. I’m with you, though: a minor crush on an instructor doesn’t have to be a bad thing. It probably has made you study a little more and put more effort into your homework and into showing up to class. Just don’t get crazy with it. While you’re in this class, remember he is in a position of authority over you, the student. He’s there to teach you, before all else. To specifically answer your question, wait until the end of the semester before you ask this teaching assistant out for

coffee, or whatever you do to make your move. By doing so, you both are protected and there’s no awkwardness throughout the semester.

Ditch the disappearing dude, date better men

Dear Wooley, I’m in a predicament. Why do guys always pull disappearing acts only to reappear again? I was seeing someone for a couple months off and on and then all of a sudden — poof! — he was gone, right as I was going out of the country. While I was away, he wrote me emails telling me how he missed me and that he couldn’t wait until I got back. Fast forward a month. Back in town, I got an email from him asking to go out to dinner. When I responded with my number — poof! Gone again! Now he texts me two months later with the lame excuse that he just realized I gave him my number, and that he misses me. Barf. Should I just ignore the douche or give him another chance? -Confused Dear Confused, Aren’t you exhausted? You sound like a genie that pops out every time this guy rubs your lamp and calls you out, only for him not to be there when you come running. Usually, I’m a hopeless romantic and supportive of second chances, but this guy needs to go for good. No one deserves to be a yo-yo on a string. That’s manipulation. Have more respect for yourself than to entertain that mess. Once you end things with this guy, wait for someone who treats you right, makes you feel precious and actively pursues you. Consistency, stability and honesty should be among the words you find yourself using when you describe him to your friends. Be happy. Don’t settle for anything less. Sometimes the best things in life are worth waiting for.

A Valentine’s postcard printed circa 1910. commercial holiday. This is when Esther Howland started producing Valentine cards on a mass scale. “When she set it up, it was in Massachusetts and was basically this small assembly-line process. Friends and family helped her make cards,� he said. “Then it became a pretty big industry.� In 1858, “penny dreadfuls,� or insult cards, were also made for the holiday, Bubb said. “It was the opposite of a Valentine’s Day card. It was an insult card, and it was kind of popular because they were meant as a joke,� he said.

Image by Š Swim Ink 2, LLC/CORBIS “Things are not always what they seem.â€? A Valentine’s postcard printed circa 1907.

At this time, Bubb said physicians gave patients chocolate to treat ailments such as broken hearts. Because it is also historically known as an aphrodisiac, Bubb said chocolate soon became associated with Valentine’s Day. “The whole idea behind that was doctors gave them to a lot of patients who were sick, so it kind of morphed into a thing that was viewed as a gesture of goodwill,� he said. In 1861, Richard Cadbury created the heart-shaped chocolates box. By the 1880s, most Valentine’s Day cards were mass-produced. In 1902, NECCO began making candy hearts. Bubb said the phrases they print on these have changed to reflect modern times. “They’ve changed them in the last few years just to keep up with pop culture, so some of them will say, ‘text me,’ or little different things that go along with modern slang.� In 1907, Hershey’s created chocolate kisses. They were so named because factory workers thought the machine looked like a pair of lips, Bubb said. In 1969, the Roman Catholic Church took the holiday off its calendar. It made the decision because the holiday’s origins are uncertain. This officially made it a commercial rather than religious holiday, Ray said. The jewelry industry joined the candy and card industries during the ‘80s in promoting the holiday, Bubb said.

Valentine’s Day was not romantic to begin with and certainly not commercial. Donna Ray, professor of Western religions, said at least three saints are commonly known as Valentine. In the Roman Empire, they were called Valentinus, she said. “There are at least three Valentines whose stories, over time, have gotten conflated, so aspects of different stories have been merged together,� she said. Some legends say Saint Valentine was a priest, and others say he was a physician as well. In the physician tale, he treats a jailer’s blind daughter with a tincture. The daughter’s sight is not cured, but she continues to return to Saint Valentine. She befriends him and sometimes accompanies him while he picks herbs; she picks yellow crocuses. Because Christianity was illegal at the time, Ray said Saint Valentine was imprisoned. He was kept by the jailer whose daughter he had been treating. Saint Valentine sent the daughter a token of his affection before he was put to death. “He wrote her a letter on a piece of parchment and rolled it up. He put a yellow crocus inside and signed it, ‘From your Valentine,’ supposedly,� Ray said. “Then he gave it to the jailer, who delivered it to his daughter, and when she opened it up, the yellow crocus fell out, and she was miraculously given her sight back.� This is where the tradition of giving cards, commonly known as Valentines, comes from. But Ray said it was Geoffrey Chaucer who made the gesture a romantic one. “It wasn’t until the 14th century with Chaucer and his ‘Parliament of Fouls.’ He mentions Valentine’s Day and connects it with the birds’ mating season and having babies,� she said. “That’s really the first instance in which Valentine’s Day is given romantic connotations.� Adam Bubb, professor of American studies, said 1850 marked the holiday’s shift from a religious to

Community, art, beauty redefined by Nicole Perez

nicole11@unm.edu

A middle-aged man unlocks the door to the towering, hundredyear-old building. In a room to the right, four men discuss hair extensions as they sweep up strands of hair and rose petals that have fallen around bright, red cushioned barber chairs. The last door to the right looks like a utility closet, but this is where they gather. A woman with green hair and spider-bite piercings. A man in a business suit cradling a Bluetooth headset. A woman with frizzy, dyed-blonde hair wearing chunky white sneakers and tube socks. A mother bouncing her 4-monthold baby. “Welcome to Guerrilla Photo Group,” founder Rip Williams says. Guerrilla Photo Group is an artists’ collaborative where photographers, models and stylists gather every Wednesday night to use photographer Rip Williams’ studio and equipment in halfhour sessions. Artists do not have to have any experience.

Everyone meanders around the studio, tromping up and down the stairs that lead to Williams’ apartment above. They laugh about a long-ago flashing encounter in the bathroom. Some people drink wine, others prefer Natural Ice. Smokers gather in the parking lot near a dilapidated community garden. The surrounding 2nd Street neighborhood seems dead; a few brown-stained heroin spoons stick out from under a chainlink fence on Coal Avenue, and silhouettes stand under a far-off streetlight. Inside, the mother of the 4-month-old strips to pose partially nude with her baby. Williams said nudity is not uncommon, but everyone on the premises must be 18. “Everybody goes through this period where they shoot things they feel are beautiful and for every human being – boys, girls, straight, gay – which invariably comes down to a pretty girl naked,” he said.

Soothe self with massage by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Editor’s Note: We’re close to a quarter way through the semester, but the light at the end of the tunnel still seems an eternity away. The Daily Lobo, rather than providing a mere moment of relief, asked Georgia Maya Kremidas, UNM and Sani Yoga instructor, for some self-massage techniques. That way, you’ve got what you need for a lifetime of relief. You should do these while sitting, as straight and tall as possible, in a chair. This means relaxation is just a few stretches away, even if you’re stuck in class or the library.

Neck and Shoulders Interlace your fingers and use them to cup the back of your head. Draw your arms up and push your chin to your chest using gentle pressure and the weight of your arms. Let your head hang for as long as you want. From there, you can sit back up with your hands still in place on the back of your head. Once you’re sitting straight and tall again, release one hand and use it to draw your head to one side. Return your head to a center position, then use your other hand to draw your head to the other side, maintaining the stretch for the same amount of time for both sides. Drop your head to one side and cup the base of your skull. With the cupping hand, gently press down and pull it from your neck, down your shoulder and to your elbow. Repeat on the other side for the same amount of time as the first.

Wrists and Hands Turn your left palm up like you’re signaling for someone to “stop” and pull back the fingers with your right hand, stretching through the wrist. You can deepen the stretch by pulling them back on the top of your thigh. To massage your hands, bring your thumb to the divot of the fleshy part of your other thumb and draw it down the thumb to the tip. Repeat with each finger, pulling your grasp from the base of the finger all the way to the tip. Do this for each hand; you can even use this for your feet.

Lower Back and Hips UNMALUMNI.COM

Start by crossing one of your ankles over the other knee. Lean forwards as far down as you feel comfortable. Repeat with the other ankle crossed. If this is too much of a stretch, you can simply lean over your legs with your belly touching your thighs. Shake your head “no” or nod it “yes.” If you have the luxury of getting out of a chair to do some techniques, the simplest thing you can do to relax the lower half of your body is lay on the floor with your legs on a couch or other raised surface. This position, Kremidas said, is great for varicose veins, leg injuries and passively relaxing. Additionally, it is completely safe for anyone, regardless of any pre-existing conditions.

The models challenge the meaning of beauty. From 100pound, 5-foot tall nothings to 200-pound, mature women to mohawked, muscular men — the models are anyone the artists can get in front of the camera. Williams does advertising and fashion photography. He briefly studied at UNM, and he said a mentor of his gave him access to professional equipment when he was only 17. He started Guerrilla Photo Group to provide that type of mentorship to others. “When I got in the position of having my own space, the first thing I was thinking was ‘How do I pay this karmic debt,’” he said.

CAMPUS EVENTS

Williams does art photography primarily as a hobby. He said his style is modern and edgy. “It’s sort of like Nike meets ‘Blade Runner,’” he said. The photo shoots flash by as fast as the frames capturing them — a girl in purple dress with purple hair squints at the camera through her purplerimmed glasses; a young couple makes out. Participants are expected to help out with shoots besides their own, but anybody is welcome to just hang out. At 10 p.m., the group convenes in the main room for a series of announcements as Journey plays softly from a boom box perched in the corner. Everyone pitches in with a

brief tidy-up session — brooms run across the concrete floor, bags of empty beer bottles are carried outside and stray cigarette butts are returned to the ash tray. The gathering slowly quiets as 2 a.m. rolls around. A man upstairs discusses sadomasochism with his former “slave.” He said he would slap her around once in a while to improve her self-esteem. He said domination can be empowering for the dominated. Downstairs, the studio is dark. A tall, blonde model poses seductively for Williams, who sits pensively in a chair without a camera, but she stops when she notices me watching. I take my cue and leave.

Top photo captures moment in Arab Spring by Toby Sterling

The Associated Press

AMSTERDAM — Spanish photographer Samuel Aranda won the 2011 World Press Photo of the Year award Friday for an image of a veiled woman holding a wounded relative in her arms after a demonstration in Yemen. Jurors said Aranda’s photo, taken for The New York Times, encapsulated many facets of the uprisings across the Middle East known as the Arab Spring, one of the major news events of the year. The photo was taken Oct. 15 in a mosque in Sanaa, Yemen, that was being used as field hospital after demonstrators protesting the rule of Yemen President Ali Abdullah Saleh clashed with government forces. “The winning photo shows a poignant, compassionate moment, the human consequence of an enormous event, an event that is still going on,” said Chairman Aidan Sullivan. “We might never know who this woman is, cradling an injured relative, but together they become a living image of the courage of ordinary people that helped create an important chapter in the history of the Middle East.” The woman is almost completely concealed under black robes as she clasps her relative, a thin man whose torso is bare, grimacing in pain. Sullivan said Aranda thought the man might have been the woman’s husband, but he was not sure. He said the image has religious “almost Biblical” overtones and noted its resemblance in composition to Michelangelo’s “Pietà” — but in a Muslim setting. “It stands for Yemen, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Syria, for all that happened in the Arab Spring,” said juror Koyo Kouoh. “But it shows a private, intimate side of what went on, and it shows the role that women played, not only as caregivers but as active people in the movement.” The tsunami in Japan was another major theme of the competition. Japanese photographer Yasuyoshi Chiba took first prize in

Samuel Aranda/New York Times / The Associated Press In this photo, provided on Friday by World Press Photo, the 2012 World Press Photo of the year by Samuel Aranda, Spain, for The New York Times, shows a woman holding a wounded relative during protests against president Saleh in Sanaa, Yemen, Oct. 15, 2011. the “People in the News Stories” category for Agence France Presse for images including an April 3 photo of a Japanese woman standing alone and holding her daughter’s graduation certificate aloft after she found it amid a swirl of debris in Higashimatsushima. The Associated Press won three awards, including first place in the “Arts and Entertainment Singles” category, for David Goldman’s shot of a soldier playing the drums

at a Canadian army base in Afghanistan. In all, 57 photographers from 24 countries won awards in a field of more than 5,000 professional photographers, who submitted more than 100,000 entries. The jury itself also nominated a photo taken by an unidentified amateur for special mention: a still image taken from a video of a Libyan National Transition Council fighter pulling Moammar Gadhafi onto a military

vehicle in Sirte, Libya, on Oct. 20. “The photo captures a historic moment, an image of a dictator and his demise that we otherwise would not have seen, had it not been photographed by a member of the public,” Sullivan said. Aranda’s photo also took first place in the “People in the News Singles” category. He will get €10,000 ($13,160) at an awards ceremony later this year.
