Sigma Chi, community remember Garrett Elders by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu
Garrett Elders will be remembered by his family and friends as a loving son, an outstanding student and a loyal friend and fraternity brother. Elders was Garrett Elders found dead in his room at the Sigma Chi house late Tuesday night, members of Sigma Chi said. Elders’ father, Kevin James Elders, said his son was wise and compassionate beyond his 19 years. “Garrett is the shining star of my heart,” he said. “I can’t begin to express the depth of the sorrow my broken heart feels. Garrett impacted so many people’s lives in such a short time. The depth of his compassion, respect and honor to his fellow man was years above his actual age.” UNM student and Sigma Chi member Frankie Gonzales said what stood out to him was Elders’ drive and enthusiasm. “Garrett loved to talk,” he said. “He always wanted to talk to you. He had so much energy and was so interested in so many things. It’s just a tragedy. He had bright ideas and had so much to live for. He saw the world as a place that could be improved and he made it his personal mission to make it so.” Garrett James Elders was born Oct. 14, 1992 in Amarillo, Texas. He graduated with honors in the top 8 percent of his class from Amarillo High School in May 2011. Elders studied finance at UNM, worked for the IT department as a comptroller and was an active member of the Sigma Chi fraternity. Among other honors, Elders made the dean’s list and received the Amigo Scholarship. Fellow fraternity member Adrian Avila said Garret Elders will be missed not just in the close circle of Sigma Chi, but all across campus.
Rebecca Hampton / Daily Lobo The memorial honoring Garrett Elders outside Sigma Chi fraternity house has grown as UNM community members came to pay their respects. By Wednesday evening, the memorial was surrounded by flowers and candles, commemorating the life of Elders, who died earlier this week. “Garrett should be remembered for the impact that he has left on a great number of people on UNM’s campus,” he said. “And that is not just someone that is in Sigma Chi or the Greek Community, it is the entire University, including the alumni.” Elders’ mother, Rhonda Hill, posted on DailyLobo.com that Sigma Chi members have been nothing short of extraordinary in their support of the family. Sigma Chi helped organize a candlelight vigil and memorial service, which will be held this weekend. “He matured and grew in ways far
beyond his years the short time he was (at Sigma Chi),” she said. “These young men have also been an incredible source of comfort and help for our family until we can be there on Saturday for the candlelight vigil they have organized and the memorial service on Sunday. I will forever be grateful for their outpouring of love and support.” Kevin Elders said members of Sigma Chi were brothers to his son, and that he therefore considers them part of his family, too. “As much as the pain I feel in my heart for my son, I look forward to
meeting each and every one of my new sons, as you were brothers to Garrett,” he said. “May God bless each and every one of you. Lord keep us in your comfort in mind, body and soul.” A candlelight vigil for Garret Elders will be held Saturday at 8 p.m. at the duck pond. The event is open to any who wish to attend. A Sigma Chi and family-only service will be held Sunday at the Alumni Chapel. He is survived by Rhonda Hill and his stepfather, Marvin Hill; his father, Kevin, and stepmother, Alana Elders; his sisters Evany Reed and Michelle
Jackson; and his brother Levi Elders. Elizabeth Cleary and Svetlana Ozden contributed to this report. BOX: Candlelight vigil to remember late Candlelight vigil toElders remember UNM student Garrett UNM student Garrett Elders Saturday 8 p.m. Duck pond

avicralukey@unm.edu The Daily Lobo spoke with eight local businesses to find out what employers are looking for in prospective employees, and the results suggest that while a college degree matters more than any other qualification, a student’s GPA doesn’t necessarily guarantee them a job. David Crum, managing partner at New Mexico Legal Group law firm, said his firm focuses on a candidate’s attitude and how they interact with clients. “(GPA) probably the least important thing to us,” he said. “The most important thing for us is the person’s personality and communication skills,” he said. Many employers said while a degree counts, it’s not so much a student’s major is that matters. Both Crum and Bill Anderson, general manager of KRQE and KASA, said a degree demonstrates applicants are able
to complete a difficult task. “The degree itself I’m not impressed with, but getting the degree is an indication of ‘stick-to-it-iveness’ (and) of someone who wants to learn,” Anderson said. Mona Ghattus, owner of Duran Central Pharmacy, and Kathi Schroeder, editor at New Mexico Business Weekly, said they both value initiative and other qualities that don’t come in a degree. “(We look for) people who have an understanding of work ethic, (the idea) that they need to be where they are supposed to be when they say they’re going to be there,” Schroeder said. Employers also said they look for real-world experience and internships. “There’s a lot of multitasking in retail pharmacy, which is not something that you learn in school, so experience can be very helpful to get you organized and build your confidence and leadership,” Ghattus said.

ap crime briefs Mayor-elect barred from office, sues LAS CRUCES, N.M. — The mayor-elect of a troubled New Mexico border town is turning to the state Supreme Court to help get him into office. The high court scheduled arguments Tuesday on the request by Daniel Salinas, who has been barred from taking office in Sunland Park by the terms of his release from jail. He faces charges that he tried to force an opponent out of the mayoral race with a secretly taped video of the other man
getting a topless lap dance. Salinas’ attorney asked the court on Wednesday to direct the 3rd Judicial District Court to revise an order that prevents him from going to City Hall or having any contact with any Sunland Park workers. Under state law, Salinas must be sworn in by April 5 or forfeit the seat. But the city clerk must administer the oath. Salinas’ attorney argued the court order violates his constitutional rights and amounts to the court indirectly interfering with an election, The Las Cruces Sun-News reported. Salinas, the city manager and another city

worker face extortion charges in the alleged plot to force Gerardo Hernandez out of the mayor’s race. Salinas won by 88 votes after being arrested on the charges, despite an attempt to halt the election due to what the secretary of state said was evidence of widespread voter fraud. Hernandez said he expects to file an appeal of the results next week. The case was one of several being investigated in the troubled town near Texas and the Mexican border. Several current and former city officials have been arrested on voting fraud charges. Salinas and acting Police Chief Luis Monarez were arrested last week on bribery Culture Editor Alexandra Swanberg Assistant Culture Editor Nicole Perez Sports Editor Nathan Farmer Assistant Sports Editor Cesar Davila Copy Chiefs Danielle Ronkos Aaron Wiltse Multimedia Editor Junfu Han
and conspiracy charges. In that case, Salinas allegedly hired Monarez in exchange for persuading his sister not to run against a Salinas ally in a city council race. The city council this week voted to promote Sgt. Jamie Reyes to the police chief’s job.

Private dorm rep visits UNM Sushi 6& Sake 338-2424 42 Ko rean BBQ 338-2 by Miriam Belin
mbelin08@unm.edu
Casas del Rio area manager Brent McPherson asked the ASUNM Senate to embrace the partnership between UNM and American Campus Communities as the new on-campus dorms near the final stages on construction. During the Senate meeting Wednesday, McPherson told the ASUNM Senate he understands there will be hesitations about the introduction of a private company to UNM’s main campus housing operations, but said he hopes they will also accept UNM’s partnership with ACC. “I just want you to embrace and acknowledge what the University of New Mexico has decided to go to and take it for what it’s worth,” he said. “At the end of the day, this is going to help your degree. This is going to help your value by investing in this change.” Casas del Rio, the 1,028 bed on-campus project, is under construction at an estimated cost of $39.4 million, paid for by ACC, and will open to students Aug. 17. McPherson said the facility is already 50 percent booked and construction is on schedule to finish for the fall. McPherson said the new dorms will offer Casas del Rio residents and nonresident students a computer lab and study spaces. Senators also debated a resolution calling for the administration to take action in response to the physical violence that occurred at pro-Israel activist Nonie Darwish’s lecture on Feb. 27. Resolution 5S, introduced by Sens. Ife Hampton and Caroline Muraida, requests a public statement from the University administration affirming that members of the audience who physically assaulted protesters during the meeting will be prosecuted according to the UNM Student Code of Conduct. The resolution was almost
unanimously voted down 160-1. Muraida and Hampton were absent from the meeting. Section 2.18 of the Student Code of Conduct prohibits “Any other acts or omissions which affect adversely University functions or University-sponsored activities, disrupt community living on campus, interfere with the rights of others to the pursuit of their education, or otherwise affect adversely the processes of the University.” ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal clarified that the people who were shoving the protesters are the violators referred to in the resolution, not the protesters. While the administration is not investigating any members of the audience who assaulted protesters, (un)Occupy Albuquerque protester Brittany Arneson could face a disorderly conduct charge for “mic checking” Darwish, Arneson told the Daily Lobo earlier this month. Rob Burford, student conduct officer from the office of the Dean of Students, was unavailable for comment about Arneson’s investigation. But the Senate voted down the resolution because they said it needed to address more than the disciplinary action on the people who assaulted the protesters. Sen. Joe Stevens told the Senate that the resolution should focus more on the right of free speech. “The main point should be reaffirming that people can have free speech on campus,” he said. “I would rather have a clause saying for the UNM administration to reaffirm the qualities and continued stances on quoting free speech.” The resolution will go back to the Steering and Rules Committee for amendment and Roybal said the resolution could appear before the Senate again in two weeks. The Senate also commemorated the life of student Garrett Elders, who died this week, with a moment of silence. Sen. Stevens
recited lines from a poem called “Death is Nothing at All” by Henry Scott Holland. “Why should I be out of mind, because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, for an interval. Somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well.” Roybal told the senators to keep the bonds they build with their classmates in student government and at UNM a priority over their responsibilities as senators and students. “We come to these meetings and the work you do is incredibly important but at the end of the day, the relationships you make through this organization and through your time at this University are more important,” she said.

Letter Leave the smokers and their bad habits alone Editor, In response to James Burbank’s letter (published Wednesday) about smoking on campus: I love cigarettes. I look forward to my morning smoke with my coffee, and relish my post-lecture smoke break along the Yale benches or near Zimmerman. Lighting up is the first thing I do in the morning and the last thing I do at night. But I’m not delusional enough to perceive this habit as an act of rebellion against “The Man.” In fact, we smokers are basically fellating “The Man” every time we buy a pack of smokes. You don’t want a well-meaning professor coming up to you and telling you to smoke in the designated area? Fine. I’d be annoyed, too. Sanctioned though Burbank’s intervention may be, it’s still obnoxious on a basic level. But whatever seeming imposition Burbank is making on us by asking us to simply obey campus rules is nothing compared to the imposition we’re making on our own lives, pocketbooks and health. I’m not here to preach against smoking itself — as I’ve said, I am a devoted smoker and, frankly, have no plans to quit any time soon — but I feel at least we need to be realistic about our habit and stop thinking of ourselves as a noble dying breed, except in the most literal sense: Rod Serling died at 50 from heart problems exacerbated by life-long chain smoking. Humphrey Bogart, the exemplar of mid-century suave, died of esophageal cancer. We prove nothing meaningful by disregarding rules limiting smoking, except maybe that we’re chumps who have bought, hook, line and sinker, the outdated idea that a smoking habit is a sort of chic subversion. Now, nonsmokers need to be less combative as well. Nonsmokers often glower at smokers who are within the designated smoking area, or walk THROUGH the designated smoking area when they could easily avoid it, and take the opportunity to fake exaggerated coughing fits or talk loudly with their friends about how stupid and disgusting smoking is. This behavior encourages the idea that smoking is a nonconformist act, and is also, frankly, just obnoxious. It’s not on the level of the smokers who have cursed at Burbank or spit on him, but it’s still an antagonizing act. No one likes the idea of being told what to do. But we smokers are on the receiving end of a valid paradigm shift in which smoking has gone from part of the American way of life to being associated to a nastier and less respected sort of folk. This is as it should be. There is valid reason for us to be discouraged from smoking, and it is perfectly natural as a measure for the overall health and enjoyment of the campus as well. We need a smoking area at or around Dane Smith hall, true, but I doubt anyone is so highly inconvenienced by the locations of the other smoking areas that they simply can’t go there to smoke. Doing otherwise is, at best, “overweening self-focus,” as Burbank so aptly put it, and, at worst, a proud denial of a foolish and disgusting addiction. Johanna Orand UNM student

All the facts help deter conjecture
Readers,
During the last couple of days, I have received a number of letters concerning the Daily Lobo’s choice to run “personal” details about the death of student Garrett Elders. A lot of people have questioned our decision and have called it “vulgar and inappropriate,” and I see where they are coming from. However, I want to inform you all that the decision to publish personal details concerning his death was heavy on our minds. We would have preferred not to, but given the context of the situation, we deemed it necessary. At the time of our publication, no cause of death had been established. In fact, there is still no official cause of death. Suicide is suspected by some, but again I would urge readers to remember that no official cause of death has been issued. No one on campus knew what was going on,
Lobo coverage of student death is tasteless, mean Editor, I am writing to express my disgust with your article on the tragic death of a UNM student and member of the Sigma Chi fraternity. Your article is inappropriate and tasteless; you are blatantly disrespecting the friends and family who are mourning. The Daily Lobo is expressing itself as a juvenile paper, rather than an unbiased,
Professors should be held to their own rules Editor,
Chris Quintana Editor-in-chief
Elizabeth Cleary Managing editor
Luke Holmen News editor
Most classes have the rule stating that if a student misses more than three classes they will be dropped. In some cases, that rule states that after missing more than three classes your grade will be dropped five points with every absence. Why is that not the case with professors? Since the start of this semester, I have not had a full week of classes. This is absolutely ridiculous because I only have classes Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
except that there was a death at a fraternity, Sigma Chi. Moreover, this is a group with a troubled history on this campus. In an effort to end the conjecture which could arise from these circumstances, we chose to include the most pertinent details. Imagine if we had just reported that there was a death at Sigma Chi, and that a student was found dead in his room. Imagine if we had given no name, no reason as to why he wasn’t found for two days. Instead, the specter of an unknown death would loom over our campus. Rumors would fly wildly about, and incorrect stories and perceptions about what really happened would have taken away from the seriousness of a fellow student’s death and caused panic. In publishing only part of the story, we would have caused more controversy for the already grieving friends and family. We had no desire

mature and respectful entity. I am not a member of the Greek community at UNM , yet even as an outsider I can see the bond of the Greek members and their support for one another. Perhaps you could touch on this topic, as it is relevant and newsworthy, unlike the tasteless report that was in your article. Perhaps you could elaborate on the person that Garrett was — clearly a hardworking student who was devoted to his fraternity, a student who left behind many people with their hearts swollen for him. As the newspaper of a flagship research university, your news should be respectful, Now, I love my classes being canceled as much as the next person. I love getting an email that allows me an extra hour of sleep. But when a professor (or worse, a graduate student) misses class without notice, it is wrong. If we are expected to do something, then it is only fair that the people who are being paid to be here are following their own expectations as well. I’m glad to know that I am just throwing my tuition money down the drain. I’m paying for classes that repeatedly get canceled, and I am paying for instructors that never actually show up to class. Michelle Kuechmann UNM student
to create more problems than need be, thus our choice to publish a few clarifying details. I also want to point out that our publication was the first to break this story, and the one who has dedicated the most time and space to covering Elders’ death. We understand and acknowledge that his death is an important issue to the community — and us — and we’ll continue to cover this story as it develops. In short, the purpose of this column isn’t for justification of our actions, but clarification of reader concerns. We all offer our sympathy to the friends and family of Elders, and we urge you to stick with us for any further developments. Chris Quintana Editor-in-Chief
unbiased and thoughtful. This is not the first time the Daily Lobo has shown disrespect, yet I never thought it would become so vulgar. I ask that you reprint the article, with respect to Garrett and his family members, brothers and friends. Tell Garrett’s story, speak of his character and of the love and overwhelming support from the Greek community. A vulgar, inappropriate article has no place in our University’s news.

facebook.com/oloyogurt 3339 Central Ave NE - Nob Hill Adria Malcolm / Daily Lobo Freshman designated hitter Alex Real swings for a strike during the game against Stephen F. Austin State University on Wednesday afternoon at Isotopes Park. The Lobos lost the series 2-0 and play play Fresno State this weekend in California.
by Thomas Romero-Salas tromeros@unm.edu
The baseball team lost its lead early and could never come back. The Lobos lost to Stephen F. Austin on Wednesday, 9-5, after giving up four runs in the first inning. Head coach Ray Birmingham said pitching needs to improve, because the Lobos usually can’t come back from such deficits. “We need way better starting pitching, because you can’t ask your team to come back from four or five to nothing all the time. It’s impossible,” Birmingham said. After losing 8-7 to SFA on Tuesday, junior pitcher Selby Brummett started his second game of the year and went through the entire Lumberjack lineup in the first inning, giving up four runs on seven hits. The Lobos (10-13) were able to score in the bottom of the second inning, albeit only an RBI single from freshman catcher Alex Real, to make the score 4-1. After SFA (11-14) pushed the
lead to four in the fourth inning, UNM came within a run in the bottom of the fourth due to a two-out rally which started with an error from SFA that put freshman outfielder Ryan Padilla on first. Junior centerfielder Mitchell Garver then doubled, to put Padilla on third. Real, the next batter, was hit by SFA starting pitcher Chase Greening to load the bases. Sophomore infielder Ryan Pustay brought home two Lobos with a single. Real also scored when SFA third basemen Bryce Cummings threw to third with no one covering the bag, allowing Real an easy path to home plate. However, the Lumberjacks would answer back in the fifth with a three run inning of their own, to put the game out of reach for the Lobos. The Lobos, down 9-4, scored only one more run in the eighth inning off a Josh Melendez homer over the left field wall, his second of the season. Padilla said that the team didn’t play to its potential, and it showed in this series against the Lumberjacks.
“As a team, we didn’t play our best, definitely coming off a big win last weekend,” Padilla said. “We’re just looking to get better and we’re going to learn from our mistakes.” UNM used five pitchers that day, and sophomore pitcher Jake McCasland outperformed the other four. He threw for three innings, allowing one run on two hits. McCasland said that he was trying to keep the Lobos in the game and that the team didn’t come out like it did during two victories against No. 19 Texas Christian University last weekend. “I would say it was our mindset for me against TCU,” McCasland said, “I just felt we were going to win the way were we playing. We were having a good time and we were kind of flat these games.” Birmingham said this series was about finding more pitching depth for his team. “These two times (games against SFA) were about finding some more pitching,” Birmingham said. “We ran some guys out there and we got smoked.”

The baseball team’s schedule is as rigorous as ever this weekend. After losing both games to Stephen F. Austin during the week, the Lobos (10-13) travel to California for a fourgame series against Fresno State. Fresno State won the national championship in 2008, and head coach Ray Birmingham said he expects the team to be tough, but not as good as it was when it won it all. “(We have played) good teams and this is one of them,” he said. “Right now, I don’t know if they are where they were in the national championship team, in 2008.” UNM has played five games in the past seven days, and the series against Fresno State includes a double header on Saturday. By Sunday, the Lobos will have played nine games in nine days. Birmingham said he is going to eliminate midweek games in the future because of the strain it puts
on the team. “I hate midweek games,” Birmingham said. “We’re not going to schedule anymore double midweek games. It’s not smart, it affects your class and your play.” Fresno State comes into the game with a 13-11 record. All but five of those games were played at home and the games include a 7-4 victory over then-ranked No. 1 Stanford. The Lobos are 1-4 on the road this season. Birmingham said it’s going to be difficult to go into their place and get an easy victory. “This is just another good program with four games at their place, which nobody wants to do, but we’re going to do it because we want to get it all right before we get into conference,” he said. The Bulldogs are led by Trent Garrison, who is batting .328 with 19 hits and six runs batted in. Kenneth Wise is the offensive threat with 13 runs batted in and two home runs. Fresno State has hit just six home
runs this season, compared to UNM’s 11. Sophomore first baseman D.J. Peterson leads UNM with five home runs and is batting .462 on the season, with 25 runs batted in. UNM has allowed 152 runs this season, 17 in its past two games. Freshman Ryan Padilla is second on the team in hitting, with .424, and is third on the team in runs batted in (RBI), with 15. He said the team has to step up to stop its two-game losing streak. “Every game, we’re going out there to win,” Padilla said. “We need to go out there with the same intensity no matter who we’re playing or what day of the week it is.”

New Mexico Daily Lobo
LONDON — Dozens of officials in Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime will be blocked from attending the London Olympics, Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron confirmed Wednesday as he pledged to make the event “the greatest show on Earth.” Cameron said those subject to international travel bans and asset freezes would not be able to attend the sporting spectacle, which takes place from July 27 to Aug. 12. “I don’t think we should punish the athletes for the sins of the regime, so Syria will be taking part in the games and that is right,” Cameron told reporters as he held talks with International
Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge, who was in town for the IOC’s final inspection visit before the games. “But let’s be absolutely clear, Britain has led efforts within the European Union and elsewhere to institute asset bans, travel freezes and punishing sanctions against this despicable regime. Anyone covered by one of those travel bans will not be welcome in London,” Cameron said. A total of 41 organizations and 127 people linked to the Syrian regime have had European Union sanctions imposed upon them, including Assad’s British-born wife, Asma. Diplomats have conceded they could not prevent her from entering Britain, but insist they do not
expect her to try to travel to the U.K. Britain’s Home Office, which is responsible for border control, will need to decide whether to grant a visa to attend the Olympics to Syrian Olympic Committee president Gen. Mowaffak Joumaa, a close Assad aide who is not currently covered by sanctions. The ministry can deny entry if it feels an individual’s presence in Britain would not be “conducive to the public good.” Cameron said he, Rogge and London organizing committee chairman Sebastian Coe used their talks to discuss transport, security planning and attempts to make sure ordinary people benefit from the legacy of the London Olympics.
