Locksley: alleged burglary ‘handled’ by Isaac Avilucea
managingeditor@dailylobo.com The person who stole UNM football player Brandon Lewis’ belongings Aug. 25 confessed to the act, and, as a result, that player was dismissed from the team shortly after the incident occurred, an Athletics spokesman said Monday. UNM sports information director Frank Mercogliano said that one player, who is not named in the UNMPD report, was booted off the team during fall training camp because of the incident. He didn’t say whether anybody else has been implicated in the incident — specifically defensive back Ravonne Carter, who according to the report told a teammate he intended to steal from Lewis’ room the same night. “I believe that’s what the police are trying to determine,” Mercogliano said. Mercogliano said additional punishment could be rendered pending the results of UNMPD’s investigation. The report said $1,800 worth of electronics was stolen from Lewis’ room, including a laptop and an Xbox 360. Lewis’ belongings were returned soon after the incident. “Out of respect” for the player and on account of him being remorseful, Mercogliano said the Athletics Department withheld the player’s name, adding that it didn’t want to damage his chances of playing football at another school. In a Monday radio interview with 610 The Sports Animal, Mercogliano said given the team dynamics involved, Lewis was put in a precarious situation because the theft involved one of his teammates. “It was probably tough, but he did the right thing because I don’t care what team you’re on, that just can’t see Burglary page 3
Robert Maes / Daily Lobo Curator Mike Graham looks over of “Grass Roots Narratives in Oaxaca and Cuidad Juarez,” the collection mounted in the second floor of Zimmerman Library. The exhibit depicts strong images of the troubled Mexican region and efforts of its citizens to temper the violence.
Photos show Mexico from new angle by Sean P. Wynne seanpw@unm.edu
In celebration of the bicentennial of Mexican Independence Day, UNM libraries will exhibit a collection of photographs from Juarez and protest art based out of Oaxaca, Mexico, starting Wednesdsay and running through Oct. 20. The exhibition, “Grass Roots Narratives in Oaxaca and Ciudad Juarez,” portrays the intensity of social struggles in Mexico and celebrates the community’s grassroots counter-effort, said exhibit curator Mike Graham. He said Mexico’s history is rife with public discontent. He said the Mexican revolution was sparked by Porfirio Diaz’s oppressive dictatorship, and today much of the Mexican populace is still fighting for civil liberties. “In the post-revolutionary era, which is now, there is a political party which has ruled many parts of Mexico since the revolution,” Graham
said. “At the same time the revolution promised land and liberty, the indigenous and rural communities are facing a lot of grief.” Michael Wolff, a photographer featured in the exhibit, said the U.S. and Mexican media have focused largely on drug-related violence in Juarez. “There are also people and communities that are doing their own things to move on and recreate a sense of normalcy in their lives,” he said. “Our objective was to focus more on their lives than specifically the violence.” The exhibit features an assortment of paintings, wood etchings and graffiti art from the Assembly of Revolutionary Artists of Oaxaca (ASARO), a Oaxacan-based group of protestors. Graham said MySpace and YouTube have played a role in drawing attention to the problems Mexico faces. Suzanne Schadl, coordinator of Latin American Collections of UNM Libraries, said the exhibit highlights some of the issues neglected by the
media. “There’s definitely some reporting in the U.S., but I don’t think that reporting gives the story that (some) Mexican groups would offer, especially since they are already marginalized within the Mexican context,” she said. Wolff said the exhibit’s theme is overcoming struggle. “To do that amidst such instability, such public insecurity, you have to make pretty impressive individual and social communitarian efforts,” he said. “You see a lot of beauty in human society when you have to overcome something very tragic.”

UNM gets poor marks for curriculum criteria by Laurel Prichard lbrishel@unm.edu
UNM was among more than 60 percent of colleges that received a “C” grade or below for general education, according to a report distributed by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni. According to ACTA, UNM only requires a
foreign language, math and science in order to receive an undergraduate degree, but it doesn’t require an English credit, an omission that earned UNM a “C.” Even though UNM requires English 101 and 102, students can test out of these classes if they meet other standardized test criteria. ACTA does not recognize this field because students have the option to substitute these

credits. The ACTA report also gave Yale University and Harvard University “D”s. Wynn Goering, vice provost of Academic Affairs, said that ACTA grades schools with incomplete criteria. “They would require economics, but give no points for other social science disciplines like psychology, sociology or political science,” Goering said. “Despite their claim that they’re championing a broad education, they only count composition requirements if the courses are taught by members of the English department, or science courses taught by members of science departments. They allow the possibility of testing out of a language requirement but not writing.”
ACTA’s guidelines require undergraduate students to take English composition,
literature, foreign language, U.S. government or history, economics, mathematics and science. The nonprofit organization is committed to improving nationwide college curriculum, according to its website. Kathleen Keating, a professor at the University Libraries, said the results shouldn’t be cause for concern for students and parents. “If ACTA had accurately understood our State of New Mexico mandated General Education core requirements, UNM may have scored higher,” Keating said. “UNM provides an excellent broad-based education for an intellectually diverse student population.” Amy Neel, associate professor of Speech and Hearing Sciences, said Provost Suzanne
Ortega is creating a committee to review the Core Curriculum Task Force’s report, which the task force created last year.

A welcome distraction

“Although UNM’s current core curriculum is far from disastrous, a task force of faculty members, administrators and students met several times last year to review the core offerings and to make recommendations for how to change it.” Neel said. UNM’s undergraduate learning goals are structured around a national initiative called “Liberal Education and America’s Promise.” It requires students to receive education on human cultures, the physical and natural world, intellectual and practical skills, personal and social responsibility and integrative learning. “I believe that parents and students should research whether the University of New Mexico fits their educational needs and interests rather than relying on simple and facile grades from external organizations,” Keating said.

Psychiatric patient allegedly strikes another
On Sept. 3 at 9 p.m. police were dispatched to the UNM Children’s Psychiatric Clinic. An employee of the clinic said he was escorting the 17-year-old male suspect from seclusion when the patient struck another patient on the back of the head and the hospital employee said he escorted the suspect back to seclusion, the report said. The victim said he was on the phone in Chaparral Cottage with his grandmother when the suspect attacked him from behind for no reason, according to the report. The
victim stated in the police report that he blacked out for a short period, but that he felt better.

Senate convenes to extend stem cell research by Jim Abrams Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Sen. Arlen Specter on Monday initiated a drive to legalize federal funding of embryonic stem cell research, superseding conflicting court decisions that he said are slowing critical work to find cures for crippling diseases. The Pennsylvania Democrat, speaking on the Senate floor as senators returned from a monthlong recess, said his legislation would codify an executive order issued by President Barack Obama last year advancing stem cell research. Even a temporary suspension of federal funding while the courts debate current funding practices disrupts research projects in such areas as heart disease, sickle cell anemia, liver failure, muscular dystrophy and other maladies, Specter said. In the House, Reps. Diana DeGette, D-Colo., and Mike Castle, R-Del., have introduced similar legislation. It’s unclear whether lawmakers will have the time, or the political will, to undertake the controversial subject in the few weeks

stem cells from embryos. With that decision, the National Institutes of Health halted funding, only to resume some projects after an appeals court last week issued a temporary stay of Lamberth’s injunction while the Obama administration appeals the ruling. “There is great uncertainty in the research community as to what will happen,” Specter said, explaining the need to pass a law confirming the research. He said the NIH has spent $546 million on embryonic stem cell research “and phenomenal progress has already been made.” Embryonic stem cells
can be turned into any tissue of the body, raising hopes that they can one day be used to cure spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s disease and other ailments. The cells are derived from excess embryos created during in vitro fertilization therapies that would eventually be discarded. Opponents say the research is another form of abortion because human embryos must be killed to obtain the stem cells. The 1996 law prohibits the use of taxpayer money in work that harms an embryo, so government policy has been to work with batches of cells culled using private money. President George W. Bush in 2001 allowed limited federal funding of human embryonic stem cell research, but then in 2006 he vetoed legislation that would have codified rules for that research. Specter’s bill specifies that the stem cells must come from embryos donated from in vitro fertilization clinics that are in excess of clinical need and would otherwise be discarded. The individuals donating the embryos must give their written consent to their use in research and cannot receive any payment.
no suspects, and test results on the silver knife will be made available soon, but they didn’t have a specific date. So far, UNMPD officials said, Carter has yet to give police a statement. Locksley told the Albuquerque Journal on Sunday that the matter was handled properly internally, but all involved parties will continue to work with investigators to piece together the timeline.
“When this took place, I talked to all parties involved and by it being a criminal matter, I can’t go into specifics,” he said. “I feel comfortable that we’ve handled it and managed it from our perspective as a program the way it should.”

Letter Reports of Mexican deaths are greatly understated Editor, I applaud the Daily Lobo’s story on Thursday about the UNM Provost’s Mexico advisory. I am a UNM graduate, and I have worked and studied in Mexico. I have observed events in the country over the past 20 years. The Daily Lobo article is timely but does not fully convey the unprecedented nature of events in Mexico. 1) The U.S. State Department has Mexico under a Travel Warning, which is available online. State Department Travel Warnings “are issued when long-term, protracted conditions that make a country dangerous or unstable lead the State Department to recommend that Americans avoid or consider the risk of travel to that country. A Travel Warning is also issued when the U.S. government’s ability to assist American citizens is constrained due to the closure of an embassy or consulate or because of a drawdown of its staff.” Read the list of countries under Travel Warnings to put developments in Mexico into context. 2) A UNM faculty member was paraphrased as saying something to the effect of, “Violence was isolated to participants of illegal activity.” This is not accurate. A U.S. consulate worker and her husband were killed in Juarez in 2010 while returning to El Paso. A California educator was abducted in Gomez Palacios in 2010 and killed. There is no evidence that these U.S. citizens were involved in illegal activity. Seventy-two migrants were killed recently in Tamaulipas for refusing to be “participants in illegal activity.” 3. Rules like, “If I don’t put myself in bad situations, nothing bad will happen,” no longer apply. Crime has become violent and unpredictable. The travel warning reads: “Bystanders have been injured or killed in violent attacks in cities across the country, demonstrating the heightened risk of violence in public places. In recent years, dozens of U.S. citizens living in Mexico have been kidnapped and most of their cases remain unsolved.” “Facts” like Mexico’s murder rate of about 14 per 100,000 residents per year only create a false sense of security. 4) UNM’s Cross-Border Issues Group has worthy goals. Such groups must weigh the risks of their endeavors, especially since a similar UNM group was attacked in Ecuador. The Travel Warning reads: “In April 2010, two members of a non-governmental aid organization, one of whom was a foreign citizen, were murdered near the village of San Juan Capola in Oaxaca.” 5) UNM groups must abide by rules concerning activities that authorities could misconstrue as political. The travel warning reads: “The Mexican Constitution prohibits political activities by foreigners, and such actions may result in detention and/or deportation. U.S. citizens are therefore advised to avoid participating in demonstrations or other activities that might be deemed political by Mexican authorities.” UNM has taken steps to warn its community about travel to Mexico. UNM students and faculty must consider the extreme risks in Mexico. UNM must re-evaluate all aspects of its Mexico study programs. UNM and the Daily Lobo must publish all updates to the standing U.S. State Department Travel Warning. The risks have never been greater. Mark Ortega Community member

Column
Aid work fosters introspection by Tricia Remark
Daily Lobo guest columnist In the everyday life of a college student, it’s easy to get caught up in seemingly endless papers, tests and tailgates. Sometimes it doesn’t leave much time for deciding what really matters to you as a person. What do you love? What gives you a sense of accomplishment? What makes your life worth living? It’s different for everyone. It’s up to you to look inside yourself for the answers. I want to tell you about my own experiences with life’s crazy questions so maybe you’ll be convinced that you want to stat finding some answers, too. The past two summers, I’ve travelled to El Salvador with a group of 13 other UNM students to do volunteer work. These students, members of the International Medical Delegation, are some of the most selfless and amazing people I’ve ever met. IMD raises $30,000 every school year and flies to El Salvador at the beginning of the summer. They stay for about two and a half weeks. Last year, IMD raised enough money to bring prescription medicines in a mobile pharmacy to five rural communities. Doctors from the capitol, San Salvador, came with us to see patients. Meanwhile, the group worked together to fill the prescriptions, tell community members how to take the medicine and keep the kids busy (probably the hardest part). These medical delegation days were exhausting. But these days stick out in my mind as some of the most worthwhile days I’ve ever lived. That sounds
Calls for discipline wrongly blame players for team’s failure
dramatic, but I got to help other people and help myself at the same time, which truly changed my perspective on life. I had time to think about what was important to me every night while our group traveled back to “Mama Sonia’s” house, where we stayed in San Salvador. I realized that I wanted to read and write as my career for the rest of my life. I realized that some people back home I wanted to have in my life forever and others I didn’t. I honestly want other people to be able to realize these things, too. In El Salvador, I saw things I never dreamed existed. People there live in houses built out of scrap metal with dirt floors. Many houses don’t have electricity. Water comes from wells contaminated with parasites. Many Salvadorans have endured a horrific history, including a 12-year civil war that ended in 1992. Despite these things, the people there have huge hearts. A lot of the work IMD does in those two weeks is focused on the kids of El Salvador, including the medical delegation days, painting murals and building schools. As one of my IMD friends once said, “I’m going to El Salvador again this year. I just can’t turn my back on those kids.” People need help, and IMD needs help, too. It needs volunteers. If you are interested in seriously helping people, apply to be part of IMD. It’s a decision that you won’t regret.

Editor, According to the Daily Lobo, Coach Locksley says that those team members who aren’t “doing their job(s)” will be replaced. I’m curious about how globally this philosophy might be applied. It’s easy and common to scapegoat the players in the sports world. But that doesn’t make it ethically right or effective in improving team success. Personally, I think it is both improper and counter-productive for a million-dollar coach to publicly berate and insult the players, who,
Athletics takes money and focus from the University’s educational mission Editor, What a great idea proposed by Donald H. Yee in the Albuquerque Journal on Aug. 23, “Privatizing College Football.” I might add all intercollegiate sports! In their place, intercollegiate sports could be offered to all students. Were this to happen, UNM could be the greatest university of the southwest. Ostensibly, UNM’s mission is education, but it has become a sports corporation supported by New Mexico taxpayers.
in spite of some scholarships, are essentially paying for their educations and opportunities with incredible commitment and quite a bit of sacrifice. Locksley and Daily Lobo columnist Isaac Avilucea call for “discipline,” another easy sports cliché that puts the blame on the players. I wonder how a little respect, encouragement and support might work. Derek Roff UNM staff Isaac Avilucea responds: “Derek, I would point out respectfully that if you read my column, it’s noted that discipline is instilled by the head coach, and in that respect, discipline is not one of Locksley’s strongest character traits.” It is often said that these sports are self supporting. That’s even better. They could be Albuquerque’s premier professional teams, and UNM could return to its mission: education, not spectator sports. I have another proposal that would make UNM one of the premier universities of not only New Mexico, but of our whole country. I propose that no one at UNM be paid a salary higher than the full professors. Wow, what an idea in an institution devoted to education. Pay the educators the highest salaries.

Twenty years after the massacre at a Las Cruces bowling alley, Charlie Minn is bringing the unsolved case back to life with his documentary, “Nightmare in Las Cruces.� On Feb.10, 1990, seven people were shot execution-style and four died. Minn said he believes the crime was an act against the bowling alley owner, Ronald Senac, as a result of his alleged involvement in illegal activity. “I believe it was drug-related, financially motivated, and when you’re in the drug world, there’s no humanity,� Minn said. “It’s barbaric. You just intercept people who are in your way. That’s the most popular theory, and based on the intense research I’ve done, that’s what I’ve come away with.� Since the crime’s 20th anniversary, the film was released in parts of the Southwest and will be shown in Albuquerque for one day only at the Century Downtown 14. Minn said law enforcement has encouraged him to spread the word through his film, which he said is key in solving the crime. “My vision from day one was to get this out far and wide, so more people would see it and talk about it,� Minn said. “The crime’s never going to be solved if nobody talks about it. (If ) people start thinking about it, then maybe you can jog someone’s memory. I wanted this thing to spread like crazy.�
Minn said he found out about the crime 20 years ago while living in Boston and watching “Unsolved Mysteries.� He said he was a journalist at the time. “I’ll never forget that evening,� he said. “I was really struck, floored, and angered by, first and foremost, the degree of unfairness and the barbaric nature of children being executed. You round up seven people and shoot them in the back of the head — someone has to pay for that. I pray every day that this crime will be solved.� Minn said he periodically called the Las Cruces Ppolice Department to see if the crime was solved. In July 2009, Minn said it was time to take matters into his own hands, so he made a documentary His transition from journalism into filmmaking was fueled by his interest in criminal justice, and the “high� he gets off of seeing the guilty be punished. “I’m fascinated by true crime. I love watching dirtbags get caught,� he said. “You do something wrong, you should be punished. It’s that simple. You’re either elevating society or you’re ruining it.� Minn said he hopes esthe film tries to capture how the massacre affected the southern New Mexico town. “This devastated a community,� he said. “I can’t stress how hard people took this. It’s such an emotional story, and if people truly knew how it affected them, I think they would go out of their way to watch this film. This story’s too important to let go.�
Though Minn promises the film will strike an emotional chord, he said that the documentary lets the story unfold as it was told to him. Utilizing interviews with the two survivors, the victim’s family and community members in addition to archival footage and the actual 911 call, Minn recreated the day. The criminals burned the scene, destroying any incriminating evidence. “It’s a haunting crime scene,� Minn said. “Those images will stay with me forever. When you see the film, you will see how horrific, how bad it was. I didn’t hold back on this. There’s no gratuitous violence in this film. It was described to me a certain way, so I filmed it that way.� Minn said he hopes his film inspires someone to come forward with information that leads to a conviction. “I know that someone out there knows something about this crime, and they’re not speaking up because of trepidation,� he said. “It’s been 20 years. Enough is enough. Someone has to have the guts to speak up. You don’t have to give your name. Let’s get some justice for the victim’s families.�

Movie mixes gore, conscience by Andrew Beale abeale@unm.edu
It’s not often a movie with a sophisticated social conscience features the hero using a man’s intestine as a rope to rappel down a wall. So let’s say “Machete� is not a typical movie. Filmed in 70s-exploitationmovie style by director Robert Rodriguez, Machete blends hyper violence with political comedy targeted at the state of U.S. immigration laws. And the message of the movie is dead-on: This country’s immigration laws are in a bloody, disgusting mess. The plot (which often takes a backseat to the gore) is a twisted tale of drugs, revenge, political corruption and Texan rednecks with a thirst for Mexican blood. Machete, played by Danny Trejo, is an ex-Federale doublecrossed by fellow cop Torrez, who also happens to be a powerful drug lord. Torrez, played by Steven Seagal, has a ridiculous Mexican accent, leaving the viewer to judge whether this casting choice is itself a joke. Machete comes to the U.S. to work as an undocumented daylaborer, charging $125 for septic-system work. Rather than this
typical job, he is instead offered the opportunity to kill a racist hick senator, whose campaign platform is built on electrifying the border fence. The campaign ads for Senator McLaughlin, played by Robert DeNiro, are hilarious yet scarily accurate: How long will it be, really, before someone proposes a measure to simply kill everyone who tries to cross the border? Booth, the shady political consultant who hires Machete to kill McLaughlin, convinces Machete to take the job with a speech on the merits of illegal immigration. The speech made me sit up in my seat because it mirrored, more or less, a speech I heard a UNM professor give about immigration. The entire economy of Texas, Booth said, would fall apart if not for the cheap labor provided by illegal immigrants, much like Mexico’s economy of would falter without the remittances sent home by undocumented workers. For a character in a movie thatwho uses severed heads as comic props, Booth makes a cogent argument.. The immigration critique continues with the character of Von Jackson, a leader of a group of Minutemen-like vigilantes who prowl the deserts at night looking for migrants to kill.

It’s easy to imagine that one of these neo-fascist groups somewhere, like Jackson’s group in the movie, actually has a paramilitary compound in a junkyard stocked with machine-gun-mounted jeeps. In one early scene, McLaughlin goes on a midnight raid with Jackson and shoots an unarmed Mexican man in the desert. He turned to a camera held by a fellow vigilante and said, “That’ll look great for my big-money donors.� The genius of this movie is that it would be shocking if real-life Republicans didn’t actually do that. So, in sum, Machete is not for everyone. If you think blood splatter can never, ever be funny, don’t go see it. Likewise, if you support SB 1070, then this movie probably isn’t up your alley. But for the rest of us, it’s a great ride and truly worth the obscene amount of money it costs to see a movie these days. Oh yeah. I would also stay away from the movie if you’re absolutely repulsed by the thought of Jessica Alba and Lindsey Lohan naked. Editor’s note: The opinions expressed are solely those of the author.
