‘Kill classes’ test students’ resolve by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu
Ever wonder why campus is jam-packed with students in the first couple weeks of classes but comparatively quiet toward the middle of the semester? “It may seem like there are more people in the first few weeks,” said Mark Chisholm, director of institutional research, “but it is probably just that they are on campus more, buying books, registering for classes and figuring out their financial aid and scholarships,” he said. Chisholm said students’ withdrawal after the first few weeks could account for the campus being less busy, but said he doubted the withdrawal rate was high. “We don’t track mid-semester drop rates, but last year, 92 percent of incoming freshmen re-registered for the spring. A few students probably drop a class or two, though.” But which classes have the highest drop rates? UNM Office of Institutional Research compiles a list of what it calls “kill classes” — classes that have withdrawal or failure rates greater than 20 percent each year. In Spring 2011, most of the kill classes were 100-level classes. Math 120 topped the list with a 65 percent fail/ withdrawal rate, while upper-level courses like CHEM 301 still posed difficulties for students, but only had a 33 percent fail/withdrawal rate. “I withdrew from O-Chem (Organic Chemistry) once and failed once,” said former student John Carr. “I think I just didn’t realize how hard you have to study; I was so used to high school. I also changed my major, and when I did, I didn’t have
the math I needed. Plus — let’s be honest — I was just lazy.” Jeff Saul, a lecturer in the physics and astronomy department, said 300-400 level classes contain students who are more invested in the classes’ topics of study compared with freshman in lower-level classes. “(In) classes whose primary population is non-majors, the main reason is that the student population is very different in these introductory classes than in the upper-division classes where most students are majors, highly motivated, and have developed the knowledge base and skill they need to succeed,” he said. Saul said introductory physics classes present students with difficult concepts to those fresh to the subject. He said students’ interest and their major played a large role in student success rates. He said withdrawal rates vary from 3 to 30 percent in his classes. Students reported medical issues and family emergencies, not academics, as their main reasons for withdrawal. More than half of students who withdraw do so during the first half of the semester, he said. One of the ways in which the physics department addresses withdrawal and failure rates is to offer a Physics 110 course that students can switch into from 151 or 160 in their eighth week if they are doing poorly. The course prepares students to take more difficult classes in following semesters without requiring them to drop mid-semester. Senior researcher for UNM’s Office of Institutional Research Connie Dennison said her department develops ways to aid new

students who may not be prepared for college-level course work. “A lot of science faculty tell us that freshmen don’t have the necessary math skills,” she said. “We create this list to try to help student drop rates by working on strategies for success.” Dennison said the Freshman Learning Communities (FLCs), are designed to keep students interested

by combining two required courses with smaller classes and exciting topics. “We want to keep people interested and keep students semester to semester,” she said. Only about 13 percent of students graduate in four years, and only 45 percent graduate in six years, according to the Office of Institutional Research freshmen cohort tracker.
“We don’t have a very high fouryear rate, but most public universities don’t,” Dennison said. “If you look at the numbers, many more students graduate by the end of six years.” She said UNM’s six-year graduation rate, which was 57 percent last year, is the best it’s been in years. In 2005 the six-year graduation rate was only 43 percent, she said.

people of America,” he said. He cited Operation: Lobo MoveIn as an example of its commitment to community service — he said he didn’t know if the service resulted in anyone joining ROTC, but that wasn’t the point. “The Lobo Battalion’s goal is about getting the message out that we’re not all guns and bullets,” he said. “We’re not all crawling in the dirt; we’re part of the community.” The program, set up in 2003, started with 30 cadets and is funded by both the Army and UNM. It has since grown and is host to 135 students and 11 instructors. The program offers two-, threeand four-year competitive scholarships and monthly stipends for those who commit to active duty service after college. Stipends range from $350$500 and increase each year a student is enrolled in the program. Sevigny said ROTC also offers student loan repayment up to $60,000. Participants are required to serve as active-duty officers for four years to get a scholarship and one additional year for each $20,000 in loan repayment. “The ultimate goal is to get a cadet their degree … while teaching leadership” he said.

Recruiters say UNM’s Army Reserve Officer Training Corp (Army ROTC) offers a unique opportunity for students to serve their community, get their degree and get paid for going to college, but war protesters told another story. Answer Coalition and Food Not Bombs, both nonprofit organizations, protested near the ROTC’s welcomeback booth last week hoping to counteract on-campus recruitment. “War is an extreme waste of resources and a crime against humanity,” said Joe Gallegos, an Answer Coalition member and organizer. “We want people to know they have other options than joining the military, and that by joining the military they will be killing workingclass people in other countries.” Gallegos said protesters distributed nearly 1000 fliers, talked to interested students and circulated a petition urging an end to U.S. occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, Erik Sevigny, the recruiting officer for UNM ROTC, said ROTC’s goal is to serve the students and the community. “The Army is designed to serve the

Career Paths A weekly peek at unique niches

Occupational therapist Melissa Winkle helps those with mental and physical disabilities with a unique approach: dogs. Her private practice, Dogwood Therapy Services Inc., offers unique animal-assisted therapy to improve independent living and vocational skills in natural and integrated community settings. “The truly important thing is motivating people,” she said. “It doesn’t have to be about dogs, it’s just what we love and what works for some people.” Winkle is an adjunct faculty member with the Occupational Therapy Graduate Program at UNM. She recently received one of four NM Humanitarian of the Year Awards, presented by the Ronald Gardenswartz Jewish Community Center, for her professional and volunteer work. Winkle said her approach to therapy is designed to mirror common therapy techniques like stacking cones to improve eyehand coordination. “Instead, we would have some-
one get treats out of a bag, or fill food bowls for the dog,” she said. “It trains the same skills, but has some sense of meaning and importance, and for a lot of adults and children who love animals the therapy is really successful.” Winkle’s passion for animals runs deep, and she worked hard to incorporate them into her work as an OT. “Before, I worked as a veterinarian, but when I saw the disregard that people treated their animals with … when you could either give an animal antibiotics for 75 dollars or euthanize them for 50, they chose the cheaper option,” she said. “It broke my heart the way they treated animals, so I went to school at UNM and got my bachelors degree in occupational therapy.” Winkle said her training program and research is unique in the field. “This is not just ‘come in and pet the dogs,’” she said. “We help people with mental and physical disabilities by providing an incentive for them to perform tasks that will improve their capabilities through the use of animals as motivators and as therapy.”

Gadhafi’s daughter gives birth by Greg Keller
The Associated Press
ALGIERS, Algeria — Hunted throughout her homeland and forced to flee into exile across a dangerous desert border, the daughter of ousted Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi paused somewhere in the Sahara to have a baby. The dramatic birth of Gadhafi’s granddaughter, less than 24 hours after her mother and other relatives escaped Libyan territory into Algeria, lends a human dimension to the dictator’s downfall and the ongoing mystery of his whereabouts. The child’s name and the identity of her father remain a mystery as well. Her birth in exile was disclosed by the Algerian Health Ministry on Tuesday, but an official with the ministry would provide no other information, including exactly where it happened. The official was not authorized to be publicly named according to ministry rules. The Algerian Foreign Ministry said Gadhafi’s only biological daughter, Aisha, had fled with Gadhafi’s wife Safia, and two of her brothers, Hannibal and Mohammed, entering southern Algeria from the Libyan border Monday. Algerian news reports said Aisha’s pregnancy was one reason for Algeria’s controversial decision to take the family in. An Algerian newspaper reported that the exiles, who also included an unknown number of Gadhafi’s grandchildren by his eight children, had waited 12 hours to receive authorization to cross the Algerian border from President Abdelaziz Bouteflika — while Aisha was in labor. The whole party is now wanted by
Libya’s new rulers. Libya’s interim government criticized Algeria’s decision to take in Gadhafi’s fleeing wife and children, and demanded that Algiers hand them over for trial in Libya, accusing Algeria of an “aggressive act.� Algeria has a nearly 600-mile border with Libya. The arid, dusty desert is the backdrop for suspected weapons smuggling by militants with ties to Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb, as unlikely a spot as any for an emergency child birth by the

The departure of Gadhafi’s family was one of the strongest signs yet that he has lost his grip on Libya after 42 years in power. Aisha Gadhafi is a lawyer in her mid-30s who helped in the defense of toppled Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein in the trial that led to his hanging. She is reported to already have three children, making Tuesday’s birth her fourth. She had cultivated an image of caring about ordinary Libyans, but neighbors said she had razed

a local clinic to make room for her luxurious home. Until her father unleashed a bloody crackdown on Libyan demonstrators, Aisha had been for two years a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. Development Program. She was appointed to the post in 2009 to focus on U.N. anti-poverty goals, especially combatting HIV/ AIDS and violence against women. The young mother hurriedly fled her mansion in Tripoli, just hours ahead of advancing Libyan rebels. Rebels trashed and looted her home and the homes of her siblings. Aisha lived in a two-story mansion with an indoor pool and sauna, where DVDs included action and mystery films, but also one on getting back in shape after childbirth. The presence of small children could be felt everywhere in the house: A large play room was strewn with toys, party hats and streamers were in a pile in an entrance hall, and her library contained a number of children’s books. Signs of the Gadhafi family’s exorbitant wealth were also everywhere, including Aisha’s Bohemian crystal glasses and a brown Dolce & Gabana leather jacket belonging to one of her children. Earlier Tuesday, an Algerian newspaper reported that the government has moved to partially close Algeria’s southeastern border with Libya after members of Gadhafi’s family fled across it. The El-Watan daily newspaper cites unidentified diplomatic officials Tuesday as saying security forces have been deployed to shut the border. The Foreign Ministry and the Defense Ministry would not comment on the report.

Trade a chicken for a parking space Editor, I just want to applaud Friday’s cartoon about the UNM Parking Daleks. As a side note, I applaud The Daily Lobo for getting a cartoonist that addresses UNM issues, not more syndicated pap. These parking kiosks might be convenient for Parking and Transportation Services (an independent, non-University profit vendor) but they suck for us. As a staff person who mainly walks or bikes to work, as is “encouraged” by the administration, it really galls me that for the three or four days a semester I must use a car and find parking on campus, I am now forced to find parking around campus that still accepts cash. Good luck there! The parking garages and meter spaces on campus recently went cashless, and it is completely discriminatory. I do not use credit cards; I have a debit card but use it only at a credit union cash machines because of my (completely founded) distrust of machines that are supposed to deduct an agreed amount from your bank but often put a hold on your money over and above the amount agreed upon in the transaction. And with recent scandals involving information stolen through illegal keypad technologies placed by thieving rings at major retail outlets, all the more reason to go cash-only! I’m not even going to go into the issues of privacy/spyware technology; my tinfoil helmet would go spinning. City street parking in areas such as Nob Hill use meter kiosks that take both cash and plastic. Would PATS have been that financially inconvenienced by using a comparable system? Or is it the overhead reduced even more by eliminating jobs — jobs that entail humans accounting for cash from said machines? I used to be proud of UNM … when it was an academic institution, but now UNM is a for-profit corporation, just like Wal-Mart … despite what Schmidly claims. I encourage visitors, staff, faculty and students to shun the cashless parking daleks, or, if you must use them, try the barter system. What would one of the subhuman enforcers do if they found a plate of muffins or a live chicken attached to one of those machines as “trade” for a parking space? I may just have to test that!

Letters GOP principles can fix economy Editor, It has become increasingly clear that the economy is stagnant. The White House has ceaselessly broken its promises. We were promised recovery and now we are in fear of a double-dip recession. The AAA credit rating has vanished.
“It is time for a loud voice from the young Americans on the right.” This has affected students and recent graduates as much as anyone. In a July 1 editorial, the Wall Street Journal reported “only 24 percent of teens, one in four, have jobs, compared to 42 percent as recently as the summer of 2001.” With UNM tuition on the rise, the situation is more difficult for people who can’t find jobs. Recent graduates are facing a dire economic climate, and have an even harder time finding employment than those still in school. Starting a career after graduation has become an illusion, a thing of the past. Students who graduate this year will not only fight their peers over the limited supply of jobs, but they will also be fighting their own parents. Unemployment is still above 9 percent. The lack of growth in the private sector is tragic and debili-
tating to every student at UNM. This administration and the Democrats propose to increase taxes on the so-called rich and raise the national minimum wage. While this pandering may be appealing to the undiscerning ear, it is a formula for economic failure and high unemployment. The students who are willing to take jobs at lower wages will find themselves in an endless hunt. Employers who are already struggling with their payrolls will pay more taxes on one end and struggle to pay the increased wages on the other. People will be laid off and businesses will fail. Instead of trying to create class warfare going into the 2012 elections, the White House needs to focus on balancing the budget, slashing the debt, defining the mission in Libya and creating a favorable business environment. So far the White House has failed on all counts. It is a real shame that there is not a greater conservative presence at UNM. The College Republicans is actively recruiting new members. It is easy to join: Just send a quick email to crepubs@unm. edu. If anyone expects to have a job after they graduate, then it is clear there needs to be a new direction. It is equally clear that the change of direction is not going to come from the Democrats. The specious rhetoric from the left has grown tired; it is time for a loud voice from the young Americans on the right. The situation is urgent, the circumstances ominous and the need for help is paramount. Mark Kunzman President, UNM College Republicans
Democrats cater to college students Editor, In less than one year, UNM campus will be inundated with extensive campaigning from student, community and national groups. As a swing state, New Mexico will receive special attention from the national Democratic and Republican parties.
“Only the Democrats directly address the needs and concerns of college students.” With the increase in youth voting in 2008, campaigns are expected to intensify their activities at colleges and universities across the country. During the last presidential election cycle, young voters (18-24) proved to be a growing presence in voter turnout, and thus a determining factor in election results. According to the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement, youth voter turnout for the 2008 election was 51 percent of the eligible voting population, an 11 percent increase from the 2000 election season. The Democratic and Republican parties will be looking to garner support from young people across the nation. Despite the investment of money and grassroots campaigning on
Letter submission policy
college campuses by the national parties, only the Democrats directly address the needs and concerns of college students when legislating and adopting new policies. The Obama administration has worked tirelessly to make college more affordable and health care more accessible. It has enacted policies to protect undocumented students from deportation. On Aug. 18, the Los Angeles Times reported the Obama administration’s official stance regarding undocumented college students. According to the article, college students and other “lowpriority” undocumented individuals wouldnotbetargetedfordeportation by the federal government. According to a New York Times article from Aug. 23, long-term college students with no criminal history, family of military personnel and parents of naturalized citizens would also remain untargeted. News of the Obama administration’s public guarantee to protect these populations elicited praise nationwide by Latino interest groups and others. These recent developments exemplify the Democratic Party’s commitment to recognizing and defending the interests of college students and young people, such as those at UNM. UNM admissions does not require proof of citizenship; however, undocumented students have had to contend with the possibility of deportation by local and federal agencies. With the public declaration of the Obama administration’s position on this matter, undocumented students atUNMandotheruniversitiescanfeel secure and focus on their academics. Bryan Wilcox UNM student

The Gettysburg Address, perhaps one of the most significant historical speeches, was two minutes long. Tim Nisly, curator of TEDxABQ, said his life changed in a matter of minutes, in much the same way, when he saw his first TEDTalk online in 2009. “The whole concept is that as humans we kind of have this baseline of happiness,� he said. “No matter how bad things get, you come back to it. I went through this really dark time in my life, and it basically gave me hope that one day it’s going to be okay, and I really took that seriously,� TEDTalks began in 1982 and were held once per year, with tickets costing thousands of dollars and lineups including exclusive guests and speakers. By 2001 TED Talks could be seen on Internet browsers, and in 2009 TEDx was born. Nisly said that since the start of these independently licensed branches of the global phenomenon, there have been over 2,000 TEDx events worldwide. Though tickets are sold out to see TEDxABQ, there are still some available for the simulcast, which will be screened at UNM. As one of the primary organizers, Nisly said he plans to feature local speakers at the event.
This year’s speakers come from a variety of professions, but they all possess a mutual passion that set their ideas in motion. Hakim Bellamy, a speaker and UNM student, said that before TEDx came to Albuquerque he dismissed the possibility of joining the likes of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates by speaking at the event. TEDxABQ helped him to realize that everyone is an expert on something. “That was like a paradigm shift for me,� he said. “I was going to meet these people that are doing these global projects to try to alleviate the ills of the world, and I was like, ‘They’re actually doing one here that’s showcasing amazing work in Albuquerque, alleviating the ills of New Mexico.� Talks range from two to 18 minutes in length. Speakers are forced to distill a lifetime of knowledge in a short period, Nisly said, resulting in a potent talk that becomes a catalyst for personal change driven by each audience member’s own background. “It’s the things that you don’t expect,� he said, “things that are outside your experience — these great ideas that other people have then intersect with what you know. It kind of shifts your thinking a little bit.� Biology professor Diana Northup, who is also speaking at the event, said the mental shift and networking
opportunities at TEDx events are especially vital for young people, many of whom are still getting in touch with who they are. “There’s the top 5 percent (of people): They’ll succeed no matter what,â€? Nisly said. “But there’s a whole bunch of people in the middle that sort of get lost ‌ There are instances where a mentor can make a big difference. There are also people who just need a little perspective on life; someone to say ‘here are the possibilities,’ because your world’s pretty narrow at 18.â€? Children are often told that when they grow up, they can do anything to which they set their minds, Nisly said, but it’s also easy for people to instead have ordinary lives and careers, retire and call it quits. “It’s people that aren’t satisfied with being the status quo,â€? he said. “That’s probably why TEDx is such an empowering event, because you realize these are extraordinary people doing extraordinary things, but they’re just like you.â€?
helped him initiate the program were not run-of-the-mill doctors and nurses. “We all had these alternative experiences,â€? Kaufman said, “whether it was in the military or Indian health, migrant health, international health ‌ all of us saw the world in a different way, and we saw medicine as part of a big social movement.â€? To better understand community health care problems, members of the program traveled to rural communities in New Mexico to speak with residents. Contrary to their expectations, Kaufman said the communities accused UNM of only coming when a grant was awarded, being disconnected from the people’s needs and imposing its own systems on the communities. “They said, ‘You don’t come for our priorities, you come with yours; you never ask for our wisdom, our leadership’â€? he said. “‘You’re known as the University of Albuquerque, not the University of New Mexico.’â€? Kaufman said many communities have praised NMSU’s agricultural extension program, where an agent is located in every township, so he decided to use that
idea and apply it to health. “We’ve started to put extension agents in different parts of the state, and that’s one of our premiere programs,� he said. “Now, in real time, we are always hearing what the issues and needs are, and we’re training communities to tap into all of our resources with someone who’s in their hometown.� Tim Nisly, curator for TEDxABQ, was involved in the review and selection of Kaufman’s work, and he said that he couldn’t understate the program’s importance. “He’s got a really cool vision for changing the health care system, and he’s doing it,� Nisly said. “It’s not just an idea,� Kaufman said the main purpose of the program is to focus on health in a broader sense, not just malady and disease. This entails fewer preventable hospitalizations, better immunization rates, more accessible primary care, improving graduation rates and the economy. “When you look at the real causes of ill health, it’s not a lack of doctors and nurses in hospitals, it’s all the social determinants — food, jobs, education, housing, etcetera.� Kaufman said.
