More applicants, higher standards by Felipe Medina-Marquez news@dailylobo.com
Students who wish to obtain graduate degrees face more competition and more challenges since last year when applying and attending graduate school. Terry Babbitt, UNM vice president for enrollment management, said he estimates graduate applications have increased nearly 2 percent and registration for new graduate students has increased nearly 5.5 percent since fall 2010. But at a time when graduate degrees are becoming more important, students are facing more rigorous admissions tests and a political climate where funding for education is dwindling. In August, the Education Testing Service announced changes to the Graduate Record Examination General Test (GRE), which is a critical component to many graduate applications. “It’s important that students understand how rigorous this test is,” said Lee Weiss, Kaplan Test Prep’s director of graduate programs. The new version of the general test will be four hours long and will include two math sections, two verbal sections, and two essays. “The decision to revise the test was made several years ago,” Christine Betaneli, manager of government and external relations for ETS, said. “It was done for the purpose of making the test more closely reflect the kind of thinking that test takers do and the skills they need to succeed in today’s graduate and business school programs.”
According to the ETS website, the test is also easier for ETS to score, which allows more simplicity in distinguishing performance differences between candidates. While schools may find the more challenging test useful in selecting applicants, graduate student Tami Lynn said it could exclude qualified graduate school applicants without necessity. “Standardized testing does not mean anything when it comes down to your education,” she said. “I think everyone should be able to go to grad school, and upping the testing is just making it harder for people to have that opportunity.” Despite the difficulty, graduate professor Billy Ulibarri said earning a graduate degree is becoming increasingly important. “The way I see it, more people have bachelor’s degrees now, which makes graduate degrees more valuable,” he said. The data supports this claim. The unemployment rate is about 9.1 percent for people without graduate degrees, according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, but it is less than 4 percent for people with graduate degrees, and even lower for those with professional degrees and doctorates, according to a 2010 Politifact article. Weiss said he agrees that earning a master’s degree is a great way to distinguish yourself and to earn more money over the course of your career. “The average person with a master’s or a professional degree earns at least $20,000 a year more, on average, than a person with

funding their education poses a challenge amid tuition hikes and budget cuts. The deal US Congress reached last month to increase the debt ceiling by $2.1 trillion includes a provision that eliminates the federal Stafford loan interest subsidy for graduate students.
The interest subsidy, which prohibited student loans from accruing interest while students were in school, will be pushed forward on July 12 of next year. After that date, students won’t have to pay the interest on their loans right away, but the interest will increase, according to the provision.

Peck, a UNMPD spokesman, said campus police commonly confront the homeless in the early mornings. “Every morning we spend about the first hour and a half of our day moving homeless people off the campus,” he said. “We try to keep them moving — we ask them, ‘What purpose do you have on campus?’” Peck said UNMPD takes the problem seriously. “We have a zero-tolerance policy for the homeless on campus who are terrifying students, using bathrooms and showers and making a mess,” he said. “We issue them citations, and of course they don’t show up for the citations, so next time we see them they have an arrest warrant on them.” Niforatos said he doesn’t think the homeless should be removed from campus, but student safety should come first. “I’m not expecting there to be

The homeless population in the UNM area has led some students, faculty and staff to feel unsafe, but City and University officials said policies and programs exist to keep the campus secure and take care of those in need. UNM student Joshua Niforatos sent the Daily Lobo a picture on Aug. 29 of a homeless man, whom he said was drunk, urinating on the side of the Communication and Journalism building that faces the bus stop. “I’ve been at UNM now for five years,” he wrote, “and I have seen drunks defecating in urinals and wiping themselves with the Daily Lobo.” Niforatos said homeless people on campus create an uncomfortable environment. “I’ve seen female students constantly harassed by drunks and homeless individuals, sometimes in groups, while walking on campus or waiting at bus stops,” he said.

Faith Miner is a funeral director at French Mortuary in Albuquerque. She moved to New Mexico from Illinois in 2005 after completing her degree in Mortuary Science. She said working as a funeral director is a rewarding job that most people don’t understand. “There is no day-to-day — every day is different,” she said. “We are here to do what the family wants: We don’t push any beliefs or services on them, everything is individual, and we just try to respect that.” French Mortuary provides preplanning, embalming and funeral services. Miner said death is a difficult topic for many, but she strives to counsel those in grief. “Part of what is difficult is knowing what to say or how to act, because people deal with death in so many ways,” she said. “Some people, you wouldn’t even know it phased them, you see nothing outwardly; some people cry a lot, and some people get angry.” She said the job is stressful because it requires perfection. “We bring together a wide range of services in such a short period of time,” she said. “It’s like a wedding with no notice. When a contractor messes up, say the florist delivers the wrong flowers, it’s a big deal. It’s not just a mistake — it’s a disaster, because people are so emotionally charged.” Miner said she views death differently since she began work as a funeral director. “I see death as very scientific; There isn’t any mystery anymore,”
she said. “A lot of people worry about what is going to happen when they die, but I know exactly what is going to happen, to my physical body at least. It takes away the fear of the unknown.” Her work brings religion into her life every day, but she said she is unsure about her own beliefs. “Being around death makes me more comfortable with it, but does make me aware of my own mortality,” she said. “It’s interesting to see how people from so many religions and cultures deal with death: Buddhists, Atheists, Christians; people have such firm views about what they believe is going to happen in the afterlife, and yet they are so different. I don’t know what is going to happen to my spirit when I die, if I have one. I’d like to believe in a God, but I am not sure I do, and I don’t know what the answers are.” Many people think of funeral director as an odd calling, but Miner said it is just like any other job. “Some people want to be teachers, some people want to be doctors, and some people want to be funeral directors,” she said. “I’ve known I wanted to do this since high school. There wasn’t a specific experience that made me want to, it’s really just about helping people. A lot of people have a fear of death, and think of us as emotionless creepy old men, but the truth is a lot of young people work in this industry, and we are normal. We go home and watch movies and have families and things. You get to be intimately involved with something that affects everyone, and that is what’s special.”

security in every bathroom, nor am I requesting that all homeless people be kicked off campus,” he said. “I understand that UNM has become a palpable haven for numerous individuals that need and deserve help. I also understand that UNM is a public university. It just seems prudent to do something now before a preventable tragedy occurs.” Niforatos said UNM should do more to get the homeless off the streets; that the campus needs to find a solution that works for all parties involved. “I believe UNM and the student body should be actively involved in outreach to help and support individuals suffering from different forms of structural violence. However, the library and other UNM learning facilities are not appropriate venues for such outreach.” Student Conduct Officer Robert Burford said students can report any type of harassment on campus to the Dean of Students Office or campus police. “If we know who these people are, we can have them reported to our office or police,” he said. “We don’t want people harassing students on campus.” One of UNM area’s homeless, Antoine Germain, said he often
doesn’t have a place to sleep or enough to eat, and UNM offers opportunities for both. “I come here and ask for food or stuff just because there are a lot of people,” he said. “I have to watch for the police because they aren’t very nice to us usually.

Usually they say they need money for food.” ~Andrew Langston UNM Student do is pee on campus, and I try not to bug people or anything.” Germain said police rarely offer help to people who have nowhere to go. Albuquerque Rescue Mission offers services to homeless in the UNM area. Spokeswoman Teresa Fleming said the Rescue Mission is willing to work with UNM and with the community to meet the needs of Albuquerque’s homeless.
“We have gotten feedback about people begging for pizza, or for one or two dollars at restaurants, so we are giving out cards with our information to store managers,” she said. “That way they can give them to people who come asking for food and they can be directed to us where we have shelter, services and food.” Fleming said the restaurant program was put in place last week, and she hopes to extend the program to UNM. “That is certainly something we will look into doing,” she said. “We can give those cards to UNM’s police — that way they can tell the people where they can go. That really is the heart of the problem: they have nowhere to go, they move when the police come, but then they come back as soon as they are gone.” Student Andrew Langston said homeless people on campus don’t bother him. “They ask for money, or for cigarettes, but it’s not that big of a nuisance,” he said. “They never really do anything. Usually they say they need money for food or ‘just 35 cents to get downtown,’ but they usually want it for alcohol.”

ASUNM heard a proposal last Wednesday that encourages reducing the number of Lobo Basketball tickets available to each student. Kim Goodson, business manager for UNM Ticketing Services, said each year students can pick up tickets on scheduled distribution dates. Each student is allowed four tickets, provided he or she has a valid student ID and can verify he or she is enrolled in at least six credit hours. UNM Associate Director Brad Hutchins said the measure, which would reduce the number of sales to two per student, would ensure more students have a chance to get tickets. “We are in the process of gathering feedback from our students
and should have a decision made in the near future,” he said. “We are working with (them) to come up with a solution that is mutually beneficial.” He said the total allotment of tickets to the student body will not change. Student Paloma Gonzales said she doesn’t see a problem with students getting four tickets at a time. “If kids want to come and get tickets for their friends, I don’t think it matters as long as they’re going to the games,” she said. Gonzales said she hopes to get tickets to this season’s basketball games. “I know they sell out pretty quickly, so I’ll have to be on it,” she said. Cassandra Thompson, ASUNM chief of staff, said in an email that the senate would conduct a survey

to determine students’ opinions on the issue. ASUNM is also examining whether seating should remain assigned or change to general admission, according to a press release. Hutchins said the proposal is a result of students’ suggestions about the process. He said Lobo Athletics has met with student leadership several times. “Our goal is to present an option in conjunction with the student leaders to make sure it’s best for everybody,” he said. The proposal also includes language that would increase the number of ticket distribution dates. “We want to make tickets more accessible, have them all enjoy a game and make them all aware that tickets are available,” Hutchins said.

US funds murderers to feed oil addiction Editor,
I compliment and I thank many the Jews of conscience in the United States and in Israel who have spoken out loud and clear — publicly damning the Israeli government’s brutal oppression and mass murder of Palestinians. I congratulate hundreds of Israeli Jewish soldiers who have refused to be soldiers in the West Bank and Gaza because of the constant atrocities the Israeli government commits against the Palestinians. One former Israeli soldier said that Israeli soldiers committed, “… unimaginable practices against Palestinians, competing among themselves who could kill more Palestinians, bragging afterward about how many they killed, deliberately targeting and killing children simply walking home from school and slamming the heads of handcuffed Palestinians into concrete walls.” Israel has illegally occupied and controlled the Palestinian territories — the West Bank and Gaza — for 44 years! The United States has used Israel in the Middle East to control the whole region because of our insatiable addiction to oil. Federal income tax dollars buy the tanks, helicopters, bulldozers and missiles the Israeli military uses to terrorize, cripple, paralyze, slaughter and make homeless the Palestinian people. Israel receives billions of dollars from the U.S. government: it receives far more of our tax dollars than any other nation on Earth. Every United States federal income tax payer pays for Israeli atrocities against the Palestinians. The U.S. empire has also supported for decades corrupt, bloody Arab dictatorships in Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia … in order to control the region because of the United States’ evil addiction to oil. The United States routinely sides with Israel against the Palestinians. Most members of Congress and the major presidential candidates are scared to hell of condemning Israeli atrocities largely because of the powerful pro-Israel lobby in Washington, D.C. The Israeli military has killed hundreds of Palestinian boys and girls and has wounded thousands more. Scores of nations have often condemned Israeli persecution of Palestinians. I oppose all violence by Israelis against Palestinians. I oppose all violence by Palestinians against Israelis. I strongly support peace and human rights for all people in Israel and in Palestine. Revenge and more violence are not the answer for Israelis or for Palestinians. I refuse to pay one penny of United States federal income tax for Israel to rob, torture and massacre Palestinians. I have paid no federal income tax for 32 years. I have ridden in no car for 10 years — greatly reducing my use of oil. I urge Albuquerque’s Holocaust Museum (funded by New Mexico’s tax dollars) to stop its ban of the Palestinian people among the many severely persecuted groups it commemorates.

Column
Duck Pond service not without sin by Jose L. Flores
Daily Lobo Columnist
On Aug. 28 the Aquinas Newman Center was allowed to hold a public mass at the Duck Pond. The University granted permission and held the event in spite of protesters condemning the ceremony. Unknown to those who missed this gloating occasion was the presence of several attendees who gracefully worshiped in the middle of campus, many of whom did know the annoyance and controversies that they were producing. This ultimately raises the question: Can the Catholic Church, or any church, hold spiritual ceremonies in public areas? If so, does the church have the right to put itself beyond the realm of public scrutiny? Some have argued “if you don’t like it, then you don’t have to go,” along with disparaging remarks of the spirit that criticism of the church constitutes intolerance. Both of these statements are unacceptable because anyone can have an opinion about campus events. Furthermore, criticizing intolerance is not in itself intolerant. In properly answering these questions one must concede that the Catholic Church can hold religious ceremonies at a semi-governmental institution because the University is not directly endorsing a religion nor is it forcing anyone to attend. The University does not discriminate against religion, because many other religious organizations have been able to meet and hold public events on campus. However, due to the church’s arrogant posture on this issue, those of us against
the idea of religious indoctrination now have the right to publicly denounce this hideous religion along with its heinous practices. Amid these events the church may want to request forgiveness from those it harmed. Perhaps we should forgive the church so long as it agrees to give us back our public space. We will accept the church’s apologies for the Crusades, the Inquisition, the persecution of Jews, the forced conversions of indigenous people in our hemisphere, the involvement in the African slave trade, the support for reactionary fascist movements like Francisco Franco of Spain, Antonio de Oliveira Salazar of Portugal and Benito Mussolini of Italy. In more recent years, apologies seem to be in order for the rape and torture of young children around the globe, denial of birth control and reproductive rights for women, denouncing homosexuals as unworthy of heaven and finally taking the most reactionary positions in the Balkans War, Rwanda and Ireland. Those who boldly protested Sunday did so under the banner of human dignity and, perhaps, against one or more of the issues listed above, if not some other atrocity I left out. Of course, all of these actions are far more offensive than some pathetic ceremony at the Duck Pond. However, the ceremony in itself can also be construed as offensive, as expressed by student Peter Lundman. Lundman was justified in saying that the mass was offensive, but wrong to compare the mass to a Hindu group planning a ritual blood sacrifice of a goat to Shiva or Kali.
I must say the Eucharist ceremony is far worse than a goat sacrifice. The ceremony of wine and bread is the celebration of the sacrifice of a human being for the purpose of relinquishing people of their responsibility, namely sins they have committed or will commit. The primitive word for such a doctrine is “scapegoat.” I submit that his is an immoral and unethical doctrine and one of the most disgusting ideas ever promulgated. No one can be washed clean of his or her responsibilities, especially by murdering someone else. Personal responsibility is what all ethics and morals depend upon. The false position that one can be washed clean of sins directly allows people to evade personal responsibilities that might otherwise have been confronted. Furthermore, according to Catholic beliefs no one can opt out of recognizing this sacrifice because if you reject the murder you will be barred from heaven, regardless of who you are. Heaven is also a ridiculous idea, but it is a real place to millions of people. The church has, for the majority of monotheistic history, held a monopoly on the idea of heaven and has used it as a propaganda tool to convert and coerce the credulous. In a life that revolves around the University, exchange of ideas is vital to advancing education. To take for granted preexisting ideas is to be intellectually lazy, as self-criticism is necessary for critical thought. Those who wish to put forth their religious practices in public must do so knowing that they put themselves in a position to be scrutinized by others and should also do some self-criticism along the way.

Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo Runners from UNM and NMSU make for the finish line during a cross country meet at UNM North Golf Course on Saturday. Senior Nicholas Kipruto won the men’s 8,000-meter race.
by Nathan Farmer
sports@dailylobo.com The men and women of Lobo cross country started off the 2011 season in good form last Saturday in their first meet of the season. Senior Nicholas Kipruto won the men’s 8,000-meter at the Lobo Invitational, held at UNM’s North Golf Course, for the second year in a row while the women’s team placed six runners in the top 15 in the 5,000meter race with Ruth Senior placing second. Head coach Joe Franklin said since it’s early in the season half of his runners, including returning All-American Natalie Gray, didn’t compete. However, he said the runners that competed on Saturday performed well. “We held out quite a few people, but those that ran did a phenomenal job,� Franklin said. “Senior is one of the best runners in the country, and we saw some good things from some of the young ones, too.� When the Lobos run again in two weeks, Franklin will play the other half of the team. But their first real opener is in four weeks, when the Lobos face Notre Dame. Kipruto led the way in his race for
most of the 8,000 meters, crossing the finish line in 24:19. The second-place finisher, Kip Mutai from Fort Lewis, finished almost a minute behind Kipruto with a time of 25:18. Kipruto, a senior, said he had no doubts that he was going to win his final home meet.
“It’s lovely at the beginning of the season, but the competition coming up will be stronger.� ~Ruth Senior Cross Country Senior “It’s the only home meet we have, and being a senior I told myself I was going to run smart and run good,� he said. “It was not as fast as last year’s time, but I was definitely going for the win.� Redshirt Freshmen Pierre Malherbe and Edwin Herring finished in eighth and 19th, respectively, while freshman Allen Pittman rounded out the top 20.
On the women’s side, Senior placed second with a time of 17:29 in the 5,000-meter race and senior Kirsty Milner finished just behind her in third. Senior said the fans inspired the team to a high finish. “It feels really good to be at home,â€? she said. “There is really a lot of support and people were cheering the whole way around. The first meet is a good marker of where you’re at. I knew I was running quite well, but you never really know until you race.â€? Sophomores Kirsten Follett and Kaitlyn Barry finished in the top 10, placing seventh and ninth. Redshirt Sophomore Janna Mitsos placed 14th and freshman Sophia Torres placed 15th. The Lobos took on NMSU, UTEP and a host of Division-II schools. No overall team score was held, but Senior said that the competition is going to get much better as the season goes on. “There are some really good runners here, but this is not the same competition ‌ as we would in regionals and nationals,â€? Senior said. “We are always going to finish higher up here, and it’s lovely at the beginning of the season, but the competition coming up will be way stronger.â€?

Taking a loss with heads held high by Thomas Romero-Salas tromeros@unm.edu
“We were ready for what came at us and hopefully the defense will keep doing this all year.” ~Dallas Bollema Sophomore Linebacker “We knew this was going to be a big opener for us, and it was a little shot to the heart taking a loss, but we have to keep our heads up and keep driving because we have a big season ahead of us and there’s a lot more games to play,” he said. Quarterback Tarean Austin said the team will press on to the next game against Arkansas on Sept. 10. “It hurts, but we have to move on to next week,” he said. The Lobo football team hasn’t won a season opener since 2005, against UNLV, but Bollema said the team is more optimistic than in past years. “I feel like we are a better Lobo team this year, and we’re going to keep preparing on that,” he said.

of the four divisions in the ACHA. Last year the Lobos made it to the ACHA regionals for the first time in the team’s history. The team also beat 2009 national runnerup Colorado State last year on the road and had the highest average attendance of any team in the country. Madrid said it can be disheartening to have one of the best records of any sports team at UNM and still not receive any media coverage. “We are one of the best teams at UNM, but we are unrecognized by so many people,” he said. “We have often been ranked top 10 in the nation in the ACHA and play some of the best teams in the country every season.” Harvey said he was not worried about the lack of media coverage because of the support from the surrounding community. “We are a class act wherever we go,” he said. “We have a solid group of fans that fill the stands for every home game, and we have most of the players back from last year that took us to regionals, and a few new players that will be good additions.”

Yes, there is a hockey team at UNM. The UNM hockey team is a recognized club sport through the University and plays in the Pacific Division of the American Collegiate Hockey Association. The club was relatively unknown until a group of UNM students decided to see if they could make the team bigger. “It’s something that we have started off from basically nothing,” the team president Nick Madrid said. “Four years ago it was a little club on campus that no one had really paid attention to. Then a bunch of local kids decided to join and get it together and it has really put us on the map.” Unlike recognized college sports on campus, the UNM hockey team receives money from ASUNM, fundraising, ticket sales and player fees. “The team costs around $30,000 to run every season,” said Grant Harvey, the team’s head coach. “Each player on the team also has
to pay a $750 player fee out of their pocket, so it shows how dedicated they are to this team when they pay so much to play.” The bulk of the expenses are from the $100-per-hour fee to rent out the Outpost Arena for games and practice, and travel expenses for games on the road. The team travels this year to face Northern Arizona University, Wyoming, Colorado School of Mines, Texas Tech University, Fresno State and Sacramento State. Last year the team received around $12,000 from ASUNM and must propose a budget every semester in order to receive money. Madrid said the team doesn’t always get the funding that it needs, but that any little bit helps. “We make up a huge budget and propose this budget to the student financial committee every semester,” he said. “We rarely get all of the money that we ask in our budget, but we take whatever they can give us.” The team has a combined 35-6-2 record over the past two seasons and plays in the most competitive

Laurisa Galvan/ Daily Lobo UNM Hockey players skate around the ice rink at outpost Ice Arena before a game. The team has a combined 35-6-2 record over the past two seasons.
The Lobo football team lost its season opener, which might make it easy to dismiss it as the team with no improvement from last year. Not so fast, though — there were a lot of positives from Saturday’s game. Sophomore Linebacker Dallas Bollema, for example, led the team in tackles with 13. “I felt like I played well,” he said, “but there are always corrections that we can work on and I just want to keep working on my techniques and getting better before every game.” Head Coach Mike Locksley said Bollema’s strong performance didn’t surprise him at all. “(Bollema) is a player who we have identified as probably one of the most complete players on our team. He’s only going to get better,” Locksley said. He added that the defensive unit as a whole played well against Colorado State. “I have to give the defense a tremendous amount of credit,” he said. “I thought they played hard, tackled well, and they ran to the ball. When we needed to get the ball back at the end of the game they gave us the opportunity.” Bollema said he agreed with Locksley, and felt the defense played well enough to win the game. “The defense felt good today,” he said. “We all came out today flying around pretty good, and the
coaches had a good game plan for us, so we didn’t really see anything that we weren’t prepared for today. We were ready for what came at us and hopefully the defense will keep doing this all year.” Bollema said the team needs to learn from Saturday’s mistakes and move past them.
