GPSA seeks to mitigate loss of loan subsidies
monday
WATER WAR
by Svetlana Ozden news@dailylobo.com
In response to a congressional decision to deny graduate students subsidized student loans, GPSA raised $49,000 in scholarship money that will be allocated to graduate students this semester. Beginning July 1, graduate students are no longer eligible for federal subsidized loans, which are loans from the government that don’t have an interest rate and don’t have to be paid back until six months after graduation. Although graduate students have access to unsubsidized loans, unsubsidized loans have a fixed interest rate of 6.8 percent that will continue to accrue interest even while students are in school. GPSA Executive Finance Committee Chair Sarah Coffey said GPSA started the Graduate Scholarship Fund and raised $49,000 in scholarship money in order to close the gap that was left after graduate students were denied subsidized loans. She said former President David Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo Schmidly’s office matched the $4,000 in donations collected from UNM alumni and the Freshman Leo Martinez (left) flees an incoming water balloon from the green team while attempting to snatch the green flag. The water-balloon capture-the-flag $20,000 from a GPSA Council donation, and game was organized by UNM National Residence Hall Honorary (NRHH).

Running back returns to Lobos by Thomas Romero-Salas sports@dailylobo.com
The Lobo football team received a surprise return last week. Sophomore running back Crusoe Gongbay returned to the UNM football team, and head coach Bob Davie said he allowed Gongbay to re-enter the program because he had been honest with Davie right from the get-go. “Just looking at all the things — his academic standing, the fact he never lied to me, the fact that he did not quit on the team last year during the season,� Davie said. “His teammates have great respect for him from his work ethic and how he conducts himself off the field. I feel like he deserved the opportunity to come back.� Gongbay, who is a Rockville, Md., native, said he left the Lobos and had plans to transfer to Maryland University to be closer to home, but things didn’t pan out. “There were a lot of things that didn’t go right, so this was the best place for me,� Gongbay said after Saturday’s practice.
Crusoe Gongbay “I’m just blessed to be back.� Davie said Gongbay won’t be part of any game action soon, due to the fact that he didn’t participate in any preseason workouts and he doesn’t know the new offensive scheme. “I told him that he starts on the scout squad; he starts completely over because he missed winter, spring and training camp,� Davie said. “There’s a high likelihood that he’ll be redshirted this year, but I’m not going to lock myself into that; it’s a thirteen-game

season, so a lot of things can happen. He knew he was going to start on the scout team when he came back.� Gongbay led the Lobos last year in rushing, and he said the chances of his playing this year are up to the coaching staff. “That’s a 50-50 chance because I’m going to learn the playbook as quick as possible,� Gongbay said. “I know I didn’t go through camp or through spring, so whatever is best for the team.� Today, another Lobo will make his comeback, albeit for a different reason. UNM starting quarterback B.R. Holbrook will return to practice for the first time in about two weeks. The UNM signal caller has been battling a chest inflammation, but Davie said Holbrook is ready to get back in action. “He had no self-doubts at all; he feels pretty good, he felt like he could have gone today (Saturday),� Davie said. “Monday we’ll bring him back full speed; again it’s always the unknown — does anybody know for sure how he’s going to react?�

LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS: Editor’s note: The Daily Lobo cannot report last week’s poll results due to a technical issue. We are hoping to have this resolved by next week so we may continue to report poll results.
THIS WEEK’S POLL: This week’s poll: This fall, the UNM administration implemented a pilot program to replace Math 120 with the Math Learning Lab. The program focuses on mastery learning, a learning style that sets expectations that students meet at their own pace before moving forward in the course (see “A fresh take on Math 120,” published last Tuesday in the Daily Lobo). What do you think about this different approach to fix the approximately 50 percent failure rate in Math 120 at UNM? I have yet to take Math 120 and am relieved there is an alternative to the traditional Math 120. I struggled through Math 120 and wish this alternative would have been available to me. I passed Math 120 in my sleep. The problem isn’t the course, it’s that students don’t work hard enough. I passed Math 120 in my sleep, but I’ve always done exceptionally well in math classes and can see why others struggle with the course. The Math Learning Lab looks like a promising alternative.

LETTER Dems’ crimes constitute the real ‘War on Women’ Editor’s note: This letter is in response to the letter from reader Jeffrey Paul, “Rep. Akin’s words proof of misogyny in GOP,” published in the Daily Lobo last Thursday. In the letter, Paul argues Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) and Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kan.) are recent examples of the GOP “driving the bus off the moral cliff.” Editor, Jeffrey Paul starts with bizarre remarks by Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) in “Rep. Akin’s words proof of misogyny in GOP” in Thursday’s Daily Lobo. To this he adds an insensitive comment by Rush Limbaugh and a supposed vote by Paul Ryan to find a GOP “War on Women.” Does Paul expect a university audience to generalize from this scant evidence to the thinking of an entire political party? But, since it’s been started, let’s play Paul’s little game. Former President Bill Clinton was a serial woman abuser. He was accused of sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape, respectively, by Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick. The only case to come to trial resulted in Clinton paying an $850,000 settlement to Jones, and perjuring himself with regard to his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. In 1969, former Sen. Ted Kennedy did not report for nine hours that he drove a vehicle off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, resulting in the death of Mary Jo Kopechne. Clinton and Kennedy, leaders of the Democratic Party, didn’t utter stupid words; they did awful deeds. Now, finishing Paul’s little game — which party has a “War on Women?” Donald Gluck UNM student
COLUMN
Wage hikes make low-skill jobs scarce
Editor’s note: This column is in response to Will Thomson’s column, “Raise wages to lift city’s residents out of poverty,” published in the Daily Lobo last Thursday. In the column, Thomson argues in favor of raising the minimum wage.
by Marcos P. Portillo
Daily Lobo guest columnist I don’t quite understand why those who call for a raise in the minimum wage don’t take the time to analyze the effects of such a policy beyond stage one. These individuals treat raising the minimum wage as some panacea for the poverty of the world. If we can cure poverty by mandating higher wages, why stop at $8.50? Why not $10 or $15 or $20? Make it illegal to be poor. That’ll cure the problem! I recognize that the intentions are noble, and I can understand the frustration regarding the people who struggle financially, and that we strive to bring everyone up from poverty. However, rash decisions, like arbitrarily raising the minimum wage, will hurt those very people the policy was intended to help. There are unintended consequences to these feel-good intentions. American politics are too quick to judge the effectiveness of a policy based on its intent rather than its effects. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” Let’s take a closer look at the minimum wage beyond stage one. Will Thomson keeps mentioning how these “families” can’t survive off the minimum wage of $7.50. Many times, what is portrayed is a single mother struggling to scrape by on minimum wage. It is not exactly as simple as that. According to a recent Rio Grande Foundation study of Albuquerque minimumwage earners, only about 10 percent of those who would be affected are single parents raising children on their own; 40 percent of minimumwage earners live at home with their families and relatives; 17 percent live with a spouse who also earns an income. The average family income of those employees who would be affected by the wage increase is more than $55,000 a year. So it isn’t as simple as saying how those affected are surviving on $15,000 a year when the vast majority of those who would be affected are not single parents supporting a family. Many of those earning minimum wage are new into the workforce, or holding a side job to earn extra spending income. These job opportunities give new workers
the chance to gain important job skills that will allow them to advance to higher-paid positions. It is their stepping stone, the bottom rung of the ladder of opportunity. Raising the wage above market prices will only price many of these individuals out of the market. New Mexico’s teen unemployment rate is already about 22 percent. These lower-productivity workers will lose that bottom rung that would have given them the skills needed to keep climbing. The higher we raise the lowhanging fruit, the higher that unemployment number will go up. An employer is simply not going to pay employees more than the revenue they bring in. Raise the cost of labor, and the entrepreneur will have to compensate in other areas. They’ll either invest in capital improvements that will automate the lower-productive jobs, remove or decrease certain benefits to the employee, not hire additional workers or maybe even fire the marginally productive workers. Let’s examine this in a hypothetical scenario. Once upon a time, there was this lowskilled worker: an inexperienced teenager with no skills, maybe his first job — we’ll call him Homer. I’m willing to hire him if he brings in more revenue than it costs to pay him. Let’s say he brings in $8 worth of revenue. I make $0.50 off this employee in profit. Another worker, we’ll call him Pluto, who is more experienced — he’s been working for me for a while — brings in $9 worth of revenue. He’s a pro at flipping burgers and can flip several at once. I’m receiving $1.50 in profit from him. Then our great planners decide to raise the minimum wage to $8.50. Well, as the owner of this hypothetical enterprise, I am going to have to let poor Homer go. He’s only bringing in $8 worth of revenue but it costs me $8.50 to employ him. I lose $0.50 every hour I keep him employed. Pluto, fortunately, is now earning $8.50, which is much more in accordance with the value he brings to my business. I now only profit $0.50 from employing Pluto — well, until the next wage hike. The result of a wage hike in this hypothetical scenario is that Pluto certainly did benefit from it. He’s definitely earning more for what he does. But who is to say I wouldn’t have eventually given him a raise for being a more productive worker in order to keep him working for me and not my competitors? And if I didn’t, who is to say he would not have eventually left me for a higher wage offered by a competitor? Instead, poor Homer lost the job and wasn’t
even given a chance to learn the skills and gain the experience to become more productive. He’s been priced out. His productive capacity is $8 an hour, yet no one can effectively hire him since he costs more than he produces. Even though he is willing to work for less, it is illegal for him to do so. Even though this is a simplified hypothetical, it demonstrates the unintended consequences of artificially fixing wages. Why do we accept interns making below minimum wage? At times, they earn nothing at all. Is that slavery? Is that criminal? They voluntarily decide to work for someone for nothing. They must be psychologically unstable! Not really. The intern is gaining valuable skills and knowledge and she/he deems that more valuable than a paid position somewhere else. It is their bottom rung on their way up the economic ladder. It is the same situation for those lowerskilled workers earning the wage agreed upon between employer and employee. Raising the minimum wage in Albuquerque is not the cure to poverty. That is absurd. If it truly was, I’d like to propose raising the minimum wage to $100. Instead, what we need is an environment that welcomes entrepreneurs and encourages creative minds to enter the market and compete in this free marketplace of ideas. We need a city that ensures the protection of private property rights and contract rights and does what is necessary to protect against fraud and corruption. A free society eliminates poverty, not a centrally commanded and controlled one. Allow free individuals to negotiate their labor contracts with each other and stop the paternalistic, forceful governing that hurts the more it tries to help.

Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo Eliot Salgado (top) is tackled by Lobo center Cariño Padilla. The UNM men’s rugby team defeated the New Mexico Brujos 55-15 in a preseason match on Saturday.
sports@dailylobo.com
The UNM men’s rugby team geared up for its first regular-season tournament with a blowout exhibition victory over the New Mexico Brujos. In order to prepare for a faster, more agile game in an upcoming 10 vs. 10 tournament in Santa Fe this week, the Lobos faced the Brujos in a friendly match Saturday at Johnson Field. The Brujos are a club team in a union made up of rugby club teams from New Mexico and Texas. Unofficially, the Lobos beat the
Brujos 55-15, in which no extra points were attempted. Rugby games usually have 15 players on each team, but in order to get ready for the impending 10 vs. 10 tournament, team captain Arik Ozden said it was important to play against the Brujos to get accustomed to the speed change. “We thought it would be great for the guys to get some playing time, since we normally don’t play,” Ozden said. “The main difference between this game and normal rugby games is the pace. With 10 players, it’s a much faster game. Everyone is trying to avoid each other.” The match was played in six
10-minute periods, with UNM outscoring the Brujos 30-5 in the third, fourth, and fifth periods. Many freshmen were allotted playing time toward the sixth period. “The freshman didn’t get to play that much in the alumni game, but all the freshman got to play in this game,” club president of UNM men’s rugby Mitch Espinosa said. “Even though this wasn’t a normal match, it was neat for them to catch on to the game.” UNM assistant coach Joshua Aranda said next Sunday’s tournament will emphasize the

talent and dedication of UNM men’s rugby. “I’m expecting next week is an evaluation for when our league matches start,� Aranda said. “As results go, I expect us to win and to get better.� With 11 tries and many nicks and bruises, the Lobos dominated Johnson Field. Aranda said he believes the squad has an edge over those of years past. “First, I learned that this team is not going to give up. There is a
Skipper
lot of heart and determination,� he said. “I really enjoy the fact that they are very optimistic. This is a good team to coach.� Ozden said a win could boost the team’s confidence. “I think we played very well. We had a very tough year last year, since we were getting beat by a lot of teams,� Ozden said. “It’s nice to come out here and not only beat another team, but to ride up the score against another team felt good.�
Amid low attendance and support for Lobo men’s rugby, Aranda said he considers the team’s personality a simple reason to gravitate toward the squad. “This rugby team has fun on the field together. They stay positive, encourage each other and keep it light. This is a fun team to be around,� Aranda said. “They put in the work first but have a fun time doing it. From a coaching standpoint, that’s where we want them to be at.�
used to being here. She brings a good core presence. She’s one of our best passers, she plays good defense, and I think in time it will get better and better. A 2008 graduate of Eltham high school in Melbourne, Skipper said she was encouraged to come to UNM by one of her Australian coaches, former Lobo All-American and Australian Olympian Pauline Manser. Skipper admitted she had to look at a map to learn where New Mexico was located. This past weekend’s Sheraton Airport/LA Boxing Lobo Classic was Skipper’s first collegiate volleyball competition in the U.S. The 5-foot-10 hitter amassed
17 kills in four matches against Duquesne and Southern. Skipper’s highest attacking performance came Saturday night when she nailed 10 kills and two blocks in UNM’s four-set victory over Duquesne. Skipper also had two service aces in Friday’s 3-0 win against Southern. “I’d like to see her become more of a leader on the court,� Nelson said. “I’d like to see her experience really come out and help our players that are younger in some of the tougher match situations. She’s a quiet player, so I think it’s going to be a while before she asserts herself like I think she can, but I think she’s already lending a lot.�

“In Australia, we play for a few different teams at once,� she said. “So we play for a club team, a state team and we play for AVL, which is the senior national league. We pretty much train one to two times per week for each team, so we’re training practically full time.� On her Victorian league team, the Melbourne Falcons, Skipper received the Club Rising Star award in 2008, the Club Coaches Award in 2009 and Club MVP in 2010. She was selected to the Victorian All Stars team in 2011. “She does have a lot of experience, and it’s good game experience,� UNM head coach Jeff Nelson said. “She’s working into her role here and getting

Weekly Horoscopes by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu
Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future. ~Oscar Wilde
Capricorn—This is the week
to make your story known to people, but this will begin as a more personal journey. Try your hand at free-writing, and don’t stop to analyze or criticize your thoughts or work. The point is to let out your feelings about experiences you’ve forgotten or tried hard to ignore. Once you’ve loosed the inner demons, your mind can move on to greener pastures.
Aquarius—You’ll surprise your-
self this week, though at times you may consider this to be a negative development. To act in a way that benefits you more than others is not your cup of tea, but if you can be forward-thinking about selfishness, you’ll see how having your ducks in a row this month will serve a grander purpose in the long-run. Tend to your needs and let others know you’ll take care of them soon enough. Pisces—The world seems to be swelling out of your grasp this week, but maintain a steady mind and you won’t lose sight of all the resources that exist to keep you afloat. Once you’ve got a handle on who’s got your back, you can enjoy the motions of the cosmic ocean and come out of the full moon on Friday with a slew of fond memories. Now is the time to indulge in playfulness, to return to childlike innocence. Aries—A couple of influences are working in your favor this week, Mercury in grand Leo and the sun in Virgo. You’ve got big ideas and the passion to pursue their execution ruthlessly with Leo, and Virgo helps you nail the details and plan for the unexpected. Try not to be so hard on yourself, as this is not necessarily about the result. Relish in the experience of making your dreams come true, even if they don’t materialize in the end. Taurus—You’ve got a significant
something to accomplish this week, but don’t spend too much time thinking about what exactly that thing looks like. Try your hand at feeling out your path this week as the cosmos are prepared to pleasantly surprise you. Plus, you can count on psyching yourself out if you focus too much on the “task” ahead. Really, this is not a succeed/fail situation. Think of it as a fun experiment. Gemini—You don’t want to be too over-the-top, but you can get away with more colorful exchanges when trying to persuade someone to support your cause or implement an idea of yours. Speaking of ideas, you’re chock full of them this week, more than you can reasonably put into action. Give your ideas away if you haven’t the time; don’t concern yourself so much with who gets the credit. Cancer—After weeks of beating your head against the same dead horse, are you finally getting the idea that it may be you who needs to change rather than the horse? As frustrating as this is to admit, once you commit to doing what you can to improve the situation, you’ll be moving swiftly towards a happier, more peaceful existence. As for the horse, carve it for meat. That is, find the good in what appears to junk from all angles. Leo—You can’t help but feel something major is coming your way, and you can’t decide if it’s something to embrace or prepare for out of fear. The personal planets are moving to intense positions next week, favoring focus on lifestyle improvements and working tirelessly toward your goals. If you aren’t ready for this kind of commitment, determine what you’re afraid to lose and find a way to be OK with the possibility of self-sacrifice. Virgo—You’re approaching the
end of a long road in personal discovery. Now that you’ve got a clearer idea of your motivations and true desires, there is nothing stopping you from making progress where romance is concerned. Personal relationships are blooming and they’ll continue to do so as long as you don’t take yourself too seriously. Feel free to indulge here and there, as long as you’re mindful of your well-being. Libra—Relationship issues are on the rise. Not overt conflicts, but a general tension. This appears to be other people’s problem, but it is the lens through which you’re viewing others that needs correcting. It’s not a matter of lifestyle change. Rather, your self-conception could use some work. Fussing over details is a pleasant distraction from a larger problem this week. The solution will become apparent after a major conflict around Friday. Scorpio—You’re feeling in your element, which is something like being strapped in a race car, furiously flying towards … you aren’t sure what, and this is the goal of the week. Find out the best way to channel this intense energy surge before the full moon on Friday. If you give it enough thought, you’ll find it’s not hard to satisfy all your needs and goals with a single plan. Just take the time to formulate it. Sagittarius—It’s hard for you to complain about your workload these days as it’s just what the doctor ordered. Your mind is a fertile ground, potent with “farfetched” ideas for improvements on a universal level. Don’t slow down until you’ve nailed the nitty-gritty into a plan. Once you’ve got this down, slap yourself on the back and watch the momentum you’ve built carry your plan out without much further ado.

Early loss motivates comeback, victory Lobos best Duquesne, Southern in tournament by J.R. Oppenheim
sports@dailylobo.com Sophomore middle blocker Chantale Riddle was determined to prevent the UNM volleyball team from losing to the same team twice in two nights. Riddle had 22 kills against Duquesne University Saturday night at Johnson Center, leading the Lobos to a 3-1 match win and a tournament victory at the Sheraton Airport/LA Boxing Lobo Classic. The set scores in Saturday’s late match were 25-18, 20-25, 25-20 and 25-21. In the earlier meeting Friday night, Duquesne defeated UNM 3-2 (15-25, 25-21, 25-19, 24-26, 15-10) in a match with 39 ties and 18 lead changes. Duquesne finished the tournament as runner-up, while Southern finished third in the three-team event. “I hate losing in general, but I don’t like losing on my home floor,” Riddle said after the match. Losing to Duquesne Friday “was a big reason why we fought as hard as we could tonight,” Riddle said. “There are a lot of fans here. We don’t want them to think we’re not giving it our all every night.” Riddle won MVP honors for her strong play. During the four matches against Duquesne and Southern, Riddle posted 56 kills — 42 in the Duquesne matches — and 13 blocks. UNM sophomore middle blocker Elsa Krieg and junior libero Miquella Lovato earned all-tournament honors. Krieg recorded 23 kills and 12 blocks across both days, while Lovato had 68 digs. “It was a nice tournament,” UNM head coach Jeff Nelson said. “We were talking that we wanted to play solid against Southern, not as strong a team. We wanted to learn to manage ourselves and play steady, and I felt like we did that in five and six games against them.” Saturday’s fourth set between Duquesne and UNM was the closest of the day. Neither team led by more than three points, and the match was deadlocked at 21 late in the set.
Ruby Santos / Daily Lobo Junior Lexi Ross (center) celebrates a match-point victory against Duquesne University on Saturday. The Lobos won the match 3-1 and with the victory took the tournament. UNM climbed back after being down 21-18 with a Duquesne attack error and kills from freshman hitter Alijah Gunsaulus and Riddle. Duquesne responded by calling a timeout. On the ensuing play, UNM had two huge diving digs off back-toback Duquesne hits, resulting in another attack error by the Dukes and a 22-21 UNM lead. Riddle took advantage after the Duquesne miscue, scoring the next two points on a block and a kill. On match point (24-21), the Duquesne kill attempt went out of bounds and gave UNM the victory. “You can’t take any point off,” Riddle said. “Every point means something. Every point is important, and if you take a point off, that’s when they get closer and closer. If you keep
fighting, you’re going to get closer and closer.” Riddle’s 22 kills led all attackers by nine kills. She also had seven blocks. Gunsaulus added 11 kills, while junior outside hitter Lena Skipper added 10 kills and two blocks. Krieg and junior middle blocker Lexi Ross each had five blocks; Ross had one solo block. Prior to Saturday night’s match, UNM completed a two-match, sixset sweep over Southern (4-0). The Lobos won Saturday by the scores of 25-11, 25-12 and 25-19 in a match, coming off Friday’s 25-10, 25-9 and 25-12 decision. “We were a little relaxed. It got a little sloppy in the third game, but it was nice,” Nelson said after Saturday’s win over Southern. “We played completely different lineups
(and) never really had our starting lineup in. We got some different people a chance to play, and they did a really good job.” In both matches, UNM maintained the lead most of the time, tying Southern three times and trailing once. That occurred late in Saturday’s match when an out-of-bounds Lobo attack gave Southern the first point in set 3. UNM regained its advantage with a Skipper kill and a Southern lift violation, and the Lobos never trailed again. The UNM attack proved too much for Southern. The Lobos scored on 43 of 82 attempts with 11 errors, while Southern hit 20 of 73 with 16 errors. Junior outside hitter Ashley Newman had 13 kills to lead the Lobos, while freshman middle
blocker Skye Gullatt recorded 12 kills in 17 attempts and committed just one hitting error. Hannah Johnson provided 27 assists and a service ace, and redshirt freshman middle blocker Megan Short had two service aces. “You kind of get to know a team, and you’re kind of hoping, in a sense, they’re not going to change from the night before,” Newman said, referring to seeing the same team on back-to-back days. “You’re counting on them to do the same type of thing, and hoping for your team to actually learn from that experience.” No Southern attacker reached double-digits in kills. Watts had seven, while Amber Shelby added six. Defensively, UNM out-dug Southern 37-20 with Lovato recording 11 digs.
Quiet Aussie brings experience, insight by J.R. Oppenheim
sports@dailylobo.com
Ruby Santos / Daily Lobo Junior Lena Skipper (right) goes for a block against Duquesne University. The Aussie earned an abundance of experience playing for the Australian national team in several tournaments over the summer.
Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, junior outside hitter Lena Skipper brings international experience to the UNM volleyball team. Skipper was a member of the 2012 Australian national volleyball team and participated with the team in the VTV Cup in Vietnam in July. Australia played against Vietnam, Jiangsu, IBK Korea and Kazakhstan. Australia came away with just one win from that tournament, a five-set victory over Jaingsu on the event’s final day for a seventh-place finish. “It’s a very different game,” Skipper said. “They’re fast and they’re low and they run slides a lot. They’re everywhere, and their defense is impeccable. Here, it’s more about hard hitting and big swings and power shots.”
“She’s one of our
best passers, she plays good defense, and I think in time it will get better and better.” ~Jeff Nelson head coach Among her other playing experiences, Skipper competed in the 2012 Australian Junior Beach Volleyball Championships. She also played in the Australian Volleyball League from 2008 to 2011 and the Victorian Volleyball League from 2005 to 2011.
