BURN, AGGIE, BURN!

ASUNM passed a resolution supporting the Student Fee Review Board Task Force’s recommendation to have more undergraduate students and fewer graduate students on the SFRB. At an emergency senate meeting Wednesday, ASUNM President Laz Cardenas said the resolution will give undergraduates representation proportionate to their numbers. Cardenas said 72 percent of students at UNM are undergraduates, and currently the board has four undergraduates and three graduate students. The resolution supports having seven undergraduates and two graduates on the board. “Undergraduates are underrepresented in this process,” Cardenas said. “This is not a battle between ASUNM and GPSA, rather a battle for our constituents.” The resolution passed by a vote of 16-3. Sen. Heidi Overton, who helped draft the resolution, said it would ensure that undergraduates have a fair say on how their fees are spent. “The percentages should speak for themselves,” she said. “There are issues that come up when we don’t have the right representation, which detracts from the undergraduate voice on campus.” Katie Richardson, GPSA grant chair, said that the power distribution in the SFRB already favored the undergraduate students. “Three graduates don’t earn a single dollar unless they can bring undergraduates on board with what they’re trying to say,” she said. Sen. Melissa Trent opposed the resolution, and she said it was a blow to the student voice. The SFRB is composed of elected student representatives, who decide how fees should be distributed. But the SFRB Task Force is composed of Provost’s Office appointees and makes recommendations on how to change the SFRB. The ASUNM resolution supports the task force recommendation. “There are a lot of problems with this task force — these were appointed people — and these are not student voices that are being heard,” Trent said. “By passing this ... we are saying that this task force has the right to change the SFRB.” Other ASUNM senators said the resolution did not support the task force, but rather undergraduate student voice. “Get over the task force. This resolution is not supporting the task force. It’s supporting one thing the task force proposed,” Sen. Daniel Parker said. Richardson said that no support

Dilapidated buildings here to stay by Chelsea Erven cerven@unm.edu

UNM has more than 300 buildings, some built as far back as the 1920s, And some faculty members said a number of aging buildings are in such disrepair that it affects their ability to teach. Trish Aragon-Mascarenas, a psychology department administrator at Logan Hall, said the building has never been renovated, but it needs work. She said the Aug. 8 flood that left three floors and 35 rooms in Logan Hall unusable could have been prevented by renovating the plumbing system. “Where to begin? This building is horrible. It has lead, asbestos, mold and sewer gas leaks, not to mention the flooding. Ask any of the faculty here and they would say the same thing,” she said. Mary Vosevich, director of the UNM Physical Plant, said PPD completes about 50,000 work orders a year and must be judicious when deciding what buildings need attention. She said PPD sets aside Building Renewal and Replacement funds, which come from the state, to do work on buildings, and money for renovations also comes from department funds, grants or University donations. “We have a lot of different maintenance on our campus because of the vintage of our campus,” she said. “We have a lot of old buildings here... Our focus is building functionality...

while still allowing the educational and research mission of the institution to continue.” Ethan Kalosky, a graduate student who works in the Anthropology Annex, said the building floods at least once a year, the bathrooms need work and the air-conditioning system is outdated. He also said that the doors don’t shut properly and that the heating system needs to be revamped. “We have radiators in here. The last radiator I saw was at my grandma’s house,” Kalosky said. Osbjorn Pearson, an anthropology professor, said the building also has heating and cooling problems. “This is an old, old building,” he said. “The cooling system breaks down several times each summer, Stephanie Gonzales / Daily Lobo and the temperature is constantly Carlos Villa, janitor, does minor repairs in Mesa Visa Hall Wednesday afternoon.

NM cabinet member holds meetings aloft Susan Montoya Bryan Associated Press

New Mexico Environment Secretary Ron Curry has somewhat of a different perspective on the land and the state’s natural resources. It comes from lofting in a gondola hundreds of feet above the Rio Grande in central New Mexico, over the sage fields that border Taos and along the red sandstone cliffs of Gallup. A veteran hot air balloon pilot, Curry has seen much of New Mexico from the air. It’s quiet way up here except for the occasional roar of his balloon’s two gas burners, and there are unimpeded views of what makes the state so spectacular — and not so spectacular. “It gives you a different perspective,” he said. “It just does because even looking in people’s backyards, you can see how they take care of themselves and then when you fly out on the West Mesa, it can be really sad because sometimes out there people are dumping their refrigerators and things like that.” Curry has spotted a few illegal dump sites during his many flights, but being New Mexico’s top environmental cop and the state’s natural resources trustee is far from the point of getting up before dawn, making sure his chase crew is accounted for and getting to the launch field in time for the daily pilot’s briefing. Curry rarely misses a chance to trade in his desk for a front row seat at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. And this year, favorable weather has kept him and his crew flying each day. “It’s a great way to start the morning,” the secretary said as his wellknown red and yellow KKOB News Radio balloon — dubbed “The Mother Ship” — lifted into the sky. “Look how the earth moves away from you,” he told his three passengers, all first-timers. Curry has served as environment secretary since 2003. He was also the department’s first deputy secretary in the early 1990s. While at the helm of the

Environment Department, Curry has tried to strengthen the state’s water quality laws, get a handle on greenhouse gas emissions and toughen enforcement of cleanup efforts at Los Alamos and Sandia national laboratories and Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque. Some of the proposals have been contentious, but Curry is happy about what he has been able to accomplish. In fact, there are check marks next to most of the items on the list he put together when he was first appointed to the job. That list, quite crinkled now, still sits on his desk at home. Despite his responsibilities as secretary, Curry has found time to mix business with his passion. He has flown everyone from Gov. Bill Richardson to oil and gas executives, mining bosses and environmentalists. He has even extended an invitation to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson. While the gondola is a bit unconventional as a meeting room, Curry says it has been known to work. “I’m a heck of a negotiator at 2,000 feet,” he joked while floating over the edge of the city, one hand on the burners and his eyes scanning the path for power lines and other hazards. Like his job, ballooning requires Curry to concentrate, observe and be ready to adjust his calculations. At any moment, the wind could shift, the weather could change or one of the other hundreds of balloons crowding the sky could get too close. “When you have this many takeoffs and landings in such a short period of time, it becomes probably the busiest airspace in the world,” he said of the fiesta. “You have to pay attention.” When it’s not so crowded and his two cell phones and Blackberry aren’t buzzing, Curry takes time to admire the view. “I think it’s helped me understand the environment a little better, just from a different point of view,” he said of ballooning. “It just kind of hones your appreciation for things.”

should be given to anything the task force does. “They are making some suggestions that are really alarming,” Richardson said. “One of the things they are suggesting is that they divide SFRB into two groups: operational programs and student programs. The idea is that operational programs would be managed by a group of six students and five administrators, which basically means we would be losing our voice on student fees.” Sen. Alonzo Castillo said that too little faith is being placed in the administration. “As an ASUNM senate, we do have to work together with the GPSA, but we need to be on the same side as the administration,” he said. Trent also opposed discussing the resolution Wednesday night. “I only had an hour with this resolution,” Trent said. “I usually get resolutions the day before, and I have time to talk to my student groups... I don’t see why we couldn’t have discussed this earlier.” Trent said senators were given too short of notice before the meeting, something that violates the ASUNM standing rules. In response, a vote was taken, and the standing rules were suspended for the meeting, so the resolution could be voted on before the task force meeting yesterday morning. She said students were not given enough notice to attend the meeting. “Students e-mailed us tonight to tell us that they wanted us to table this, because they wanted to have a say in this,” Trent said. “This is not enough time to decide on this really, really big issue.” Sen. Terence Brown said that more action should be taken by students if they want to contribute. “We’re so concerned about going to students. Why don’t the students come to us for a change?” he said.

Letter Day to protect education particularly relevant at UNM Editor, Across the country Thursday, faculty, staff and students rallied together to protest increasing tuition rates and decreasing government funding of public education as part of the National Day of Action to Defend Public Education. The need for such action has never been greater. In a recent survey of 15-year-olds in 30 Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development nations, the U.S. ranks 16th in reading, 20th in science and 25th in both mathematics and problem solving. The effects of this at the college level are obvious. A comparison of the number of 25-to34-year-olds with college degrees shows that the U.S. has fallen from first to 12th among 36 developed nations, largely as a result of high dropout rates. The economic crisis has only exacerbated this problem as government funding of education at both the state and federal level has diminished. Here at UNM, state appropriations have been cut by approximately 15 percent over the last two years, including a 3.2 percent rescission this year that is forcing departments to slash operating costs and backtrack on promises of financial support to graduate student teaching assistants and part-time instructors. These valuable employees teach a significant portion of the courses at UNM. TAs alone teach 25 percent of introductory level classes. The impact of these cuts on students is clear: higher tuition, fewer classes, larger class sizes and a longer time to graduation (further increasing the financial burden). In the face of even more drastic budget reductions next year, as state appropriations will likely be cut another 5 percent and onetime federal stimulus funds run out, the time for action is now. Final decisions at the state and university level have yet to be made. You can still make your voice heard. Write to the governor, state legislature and November election candidates asking that education funding be maintained (addresses at Facebook.com/unmGET). Join the national protest (DefendEducation.org) to denounce education cuts at all levels. Defend higher education at UNM by supporting graduate assistants and part-time instructors. Demand that the administration makes education its top priority. At stake are your education and future, but only you can stand up and fight for them. Evan Mitchell UNM student

USA needs to slow its insatiable hunger by Zach Gould

Daily Lobo Guest Columnist Editor’s Note: Lobos Abroad is a regular column written by Daily Lobo staff members studying in a different country this semester. While living in Chile for the past three months, I have noticed some things about America. It’s like spending some time away from a girlfriend to get clarity. Sometimes you need distance to see reality. Over the past three months, I have learned a few things. First rule about living in South America: You don’t refer to the United States as “America.” It’s all equally America. At UNM, everyone complains about things not working, about the infrastructure and the bureaucracy sucking the life out of academia — taking unneeded money and wasting too much. It’s been three months since I started school here, and I still don’t have an ID card. I still haven’t been integrated into the e-mail system. And when I had to register for

This is deeply ingrained in our culture, and we have no sense of history. Even from the last 50 years. An upscale clothing store now takes the nickname of our covert revolutionary operations. You know when you try to eat after you are already full, and nothing seems to feel very satisfying? Things may taste good, but you don’t have much of an impetus to stuff yourself with more food. That is what we are as a country. Like a fat man with food in his mouth clawing at his neighbor’s plate for more and ever more, we are unsatisfied with anything we put in our mouth. After school today on my way home to finish my column and e-mail it, a bunch of anarchists lit tires on fire in the middle of the road and started throwing Molotov cocktails through crowds at police cars. And the police didn’t rush in. They stayed back, waited for the tires to burn a little while and then started spraying the whole area with a water cannon, but not even the protesters, just the tires. At UNM in the early 2000s when there was a peaceful protest, police rushed in and shot tear gas into the crowd and started hitting people with batons. The traffic around the burning tires in Chile didn’t even stop.

There’s no excuse not to vote by Drew Landis

Daily Lobo Guest Columnist Why is it that Americans have to get angry before they are willing to vote? And even when they are angry, still fewer than two thirds of those eligible end up going to the polls. In 2008, voters were angry about the way Republicans were running the country, and so they voiced this anger by voting a Democratic president into office. A recent Newsweek article, “I’m Mad as Hell … And I’m Going to Vote!” shows that, once again, American people are upset and heading to the polls. This time, however, the Democratic party might not fair so well. Now, voters are upset not because of the things that Bush did while in office, but rather by things that Obama hasn’t done while in office. According to, “Voting and Registration in the Election of November 2008,” a government

census report published in May, there were more college-age students that voted in 2008 than in any previous year. Even with all of the work that the 2008 elections put into registering young voters, there was still only a 49 percent voting rate among those citizens’ ages 18 to 24 years old. How can it be that the next generation of Americans care so little about the future of our country that less than one out every two of them vote? In the 2008 elections, the voting rate for the country as a whole was 63.6 percent. This voting rate is slightly better than that of people ages 18 to 24, but still rather dismal. That means that a full one-third of those citizens eligible to vote do not even take the time to participate in the democratic process for the most powerful country in the world. For the basic human right of suffrage, a human right that people have fought and died for, it is amazing that more people don’t vote. Encouraging people to vote is not just a problem in the U.S.

Many countries in the world struggle to encourage their citizens to vote. So what country’s citizens have the best voting record? Belgium and Australia do, but only because in these countries voting is compulsory and if you neglect this civil duty, then you could risk a fine, or in more severe cases, according to the Electoral Reform Society, you could be passed over the next time you are up for promotion at work. Even with compulsory voting, these countries are not able to encourage 100 percent of their citizens to vote, but they do typically have a greater than 90 percent voting rate. Unfortunately, if you are not registered to vote yet, Tuesday was the registration deadline in order to be able to vote in New Mexico’s upcoming general election. But that shouldn’t stop you from registering or voting in the future. Voting is designed to be simple and easy in order to encourage more people to do it. If you care about the future of your country, then show it!

a man of the community. That, Boston said, has padded some of the criticism lobbed at the program which is, more or less, in the same situation as UNM. “My observation is that our fans are respectful of what he’s done so far,” he said. “I haven’t gotten any nasty phone calls or e-mails complaining about him so far.” Which is more than Krebs can say. ‘They want to support the chicken’ How exactly did things change so rapidly? For one, Locksley gutted the house that Rocky Long built, scrapping smash-mouth for offensive style, and hiring defensive coordinator Doug Mallory to retool the Lobos’ defense. Like Locksley, Walker brought in his own staff — yet he didn’t announce to the world that his team intended to put a third digit on Aggie Memorial Stadium’s scoreboard. Saturday will determine the winless from the winners — and, on a larger scale, serve as a litmus test for what potentially lies ahead for two struggling New Mexico programs. Just two years ago, if you were to do a straw poll of studious UNM and New Mexico State fans, most would concede that Locksley, the acclaimed recruiter and offensive engineer, had a better chance to succeed at UNM than his defensive-minded counterpart. Count BleedCrimson.net editor Sam Wasson among those people. Yet suddenly, inexplicably, Wasson said he has adjusted his outlook — all of this, mind you, in the face of an 0-4 Aggie record. “When you don’t have to fill the shoes of someone that’s universally liked and respected in the community, (it’s easier),” Wasson said, referencing Long. “Walker didn’t have to come in and replace somebody like that.” Teddy Feinberg, the NMSU football beat reporter for the Las Cruces Sun-News, said Walker replaced a coach in Hal Mumme who was hightailed out of town, making it easier for fans to embrace Walker. “It’d be naïve to think they’d be happy with the 0-4 record,” Feinberg said. “But I think the realistic fan understands (Walker) didn’t exactly take over for Bill Belichick down here with the New England Patriots.” Few disagree — except Walker himself — that Walker inherited a more favorable situation at New Mexico State than Locksley, who was primed with the task of taking over for the revered Long. Even fewer are opposed to the idea that Locksley would not be under such intense scrutiny had he not been riddled by off-the-field controversy. Think Locksley has it bad? Walker pointed to the fact that NMSU is in dire financial straits — coupled with the fact that NMSU hasn’t fielded a competitive team in a while. He said “it’s not even close” when asked to contrast UNM’s resources with NMSU’s. “When you look at some of the conditions comparatively speaking, they have a little bit more versus what we have,” he said. According to ESPN, New Mexico State had to ask fans last year to donate snacks for its players because the Athletics Department trimmed more than $1 million from its budget. Among other things, Boston has fostered understanding as to why $4.1 million annually was taken away from education and given to the Athletics program. In noting that about 70 percent of Las Cruces citizens qualify for reduced lunch, Boston said it’s difficult to fill the stadium, even though season tickets sold for as little as $44 compared to $72 at New Mexico.

“The question is can we generate enough resources over time to remain consistently competitive in football? That’s a realistic question, and I don’t know the answer to that,” he said. “People have to make choices of discretionary income, and do they typically support non-winning programs? No.” It doesn’t help, Boston said, that Las Cruces has a “town and gown” mentality. “I think there’s been disconnect in lots of ways between the university over time and the community and the fact that there’s a culture of losing,” he said. “It’s the question of the chicken or the egg, and fans, in general, don’t want to nurture the egg; they want to support the chicken.” ‘That’s all they’ve ever been. That’s all they’ll ever be.’ One could venture to say that there is neither an egg nor a chicken in the New Mexico nest. UNM, unanimously (and elitistly) regarded as New Mexico’s flagship University, is on track to becoming nothing more than Albuquerque’s NMSU — that’s to say a program stripped of its tradition, whose malcontent and genuine indifference is highlighted by fans’ desensitization to losing. Gee said the fan tide will turn once again if the Lobos lose to the Aggies on Saturday, despite a recent outpouring of support for Locksley on the radio. “Boy, it will turn or people will just become apathetic, and that is the big thing, and Paul Krebs knows this better than anybody that is the biggest danger they are facing right now with this program,” he said. Not since the 1998 and 1999 seasons have the Aggies beaten the Lobos in successive seasons. They have an opportunity to do so Saturday. Even if that happens, Gee said, he doesn’t view it as a transfer of regional power. Year in, year out, the Lobos will continue to be a more progressive program. “New Mexico State is cannon fodder for the big boys. That’s all they’ve ever been. That’s all they’ll ever be,” Gee said. “New Mexico States hopes, hopes, once in every four, five years they might be able to go 6-6 and be bowl eligible. The expectation at New Mexico is to be at least 6-6 and at least be bowl eligible.” Expectations are something Walker said he is trying to instill in his program and its followers. That those expectations are noticeably absent has made for a smoother transition for Walker than Locksley. “Every coach thinks they have the magic wand,” Walker said. “We’ve shown some improvement in this program; it just hasn’t shown up on the scoreboard. I think the naked eye may pay less attention to that because that’s not sexy enough.” Sexy was the verbiage Krebs used at Locksley’s introductory news conference. So far, Locksley’s been about as sexy as Greta Van Susteren. Still, despite clamoring for his job, Locksley said at his post-UNLV news conference that he didn’t feel the need for a vote of confidence from Krebs. Walker gave him one anyway Thursday. “If they believe, despite whatever else, in Mike Locksley’s vision, (they’ve) got to support him,” he said. “My whole deal is that the people that matter, and the people that make the decisions — not the media, not the community per se — the people that make the decisions (have to ask themselves), ‘Do you believe in this coach’s vision?’” For Walker, the answer is a resounding “yes.”

The Not-So-Grande Rivalry by Isaac Avilucea

managingeditor@dailylobo.com It was a matter-of-fact declaration from an honest-to-the-bone coach: “If they stop believing in DeWayne Walker, then it’s time to do what you got to do.” The condensed version: If they don’t believe in me, they might as well fire me. Yet despite a comparative record to UNM head football coach Mike Locksley, NMSU head coach DeWayne Walker does not have the same amount of visible detractors. Hired roughly around the same time, Locksley and Walker — while similar in some respects — have forged divergent coaching paths less than two years into their tenures.

By the looks of it, this rivalry game merely symbolizes a battle between two of the most inept programs in the nation. The more sagacious, or perhaps just boldly daring, mind could make a case that the result of Saturday’s game could foretell of an impending shift of football power in the state of New Mexico. Is this the changing of guards — or better yet, of flagships? Establishing a winning program is equal parts scheme as support. What UNM lacks, New Mexico State seems to have in abundance: backing of the coach. ‘He brought some hope to the program’ From what’s been told, Las Cruces remains a Walker stronghold, despite NMSU’s recent reputation as a coaching landfill. Since 2004, NMSU has gone through two head coaches, dat-

ing to today’s current regime. Compounded with a long-running history of general mismanagement, NMSU Athletics Director McKinley Boston said, Walker’s duty is doubly as difficult. “When you look at the history of neglect in multiple, multiple ways … you’ve got to deal with reality (of it),” he said in a phone interview Thursday. That’s something, perhaps, not everyone understands. One NMSU student told me he’d take Athletics Director Paul Krebs and Locksley over Boston and Walker any day of the week — even in spite of the UNM pair’s flaws. Yet, by and large, Jeffrey Ramirez, a sophomore at NMSU, said from his experiences, the Walker sentiment down south is overwhelmingly positive. “I got to admit when he first got

here, he brought some hope to the program,” he said. Compared to Walker’s, Locksley’s approval rating is mixed at best and mercurial at worst. Locksley was not available for comment at Wednesday’s practice. Yet some suggest Locksley’s credibility has spiked recently. The Sports Animal radio sports personality Erik Gee said callers last year were resoundingly opposed to Locksley’s antics — roughly 80-20 — but since the Uptown Sports Bar incident involving Daily Lobo sports editor Ryan Tomari made its rounds through the media, he’s seen more people identify with Locksley’s plight. “On the radio show, it’s probably split 50-50, and I would say for the last three weeks that the story came out about what did or what didn’t go

down at Uptown Sports Bar, he’s become more of a sympathetic figure,” Gee said. That largely depends on who you ask. For every supporter, it can also be argued that Locksley’s reservoir of goodwill is as shallow as the Rio Grande River. His 1-16 head coaching record and off-the-field baggage have some hesitant to embrace his program vision. In that respect, Walker doesn’t exactly mock up the word success, though he has be able to, for the most part, avoid the off-the-field death pits Locksley has fallen into. With the exception of an arrest on the suspicion of drunk driving — a charge that was later thrown out by a Las Cruces judge — Walker has been

Saving up last year’s rage for this year’s game by Ryan Tomari

rtomari@unm.edu It’s college football at its finest. The UNM football team (0-5) travels south to Las Cruces to face in-state rival NMSU (0-4) on Saturday in a game nationally considered to be the Gaffe Bowl. But ignore the statistics and rankings, because the hatred between the Aggies and the Lobos has blossomed this week leading up to the annual game. “I have a winning record down there, and that’s how I would like to keep it,” middle linebacker Carmen Messina said. And throw UNM and NMSU’s winless records out the window, especial-

ly for Lobo players, because, for now, 2010 is a one-game season. The Aggies pulled out a 20-17 victory in Albuquerque last year. Aggie quarterback Jeff Fleming hit Marcus Anderson for a four-yard touchdown pass with 39 seconds left in the game. The Lobos had an opportunity to tie the game with a field goal, but kicker James Aho missed a 47-yard try as time expired. Defensive end Jaymar Latchison said he is still bitter about last year’s last loss. “We know that when we play State every time. No matter what the record is on any team, it’s going to be a battle all game,” he said. UNM has taken great measure to pump itself up for this year’s southern clash.

Latchison said the Lobos have gone as far as playing the Aggie fight song in the team’s locker room and some game film from last year. “We have (last year’s game) playing every day on the TVs in our locker room of what they did to us last year,” he said. “We’re not going to let it happen again, so we’re going to put the hurting on them in their house.” If only for one week, the Lobos and Aggies get a chance to ignore how their respective seasons have played out. It’s not the fact that the Lobos and Aggies are winless; it’s how they have lost. In their five losses UNM has been beaten by an average 52 points, a ranking that is dead last in the Football Bowl Subdivision (formally Division-I football) out of 120 teams.

UNM’s worst loss came at the hands of Oregon — a 72-0 drubbing the first week of the season. On the flip side, NMSU is 119th in points against, giving up 40.6 per game. NMSU’s biggest defeat came last week to perennially Western Athletic Conference powerhouse, Boise State. The Broncos dismantled the Aggies at Aggie Memorial Stadium, 59-0. NMSU head coach Dewayne Walker said this week’s game isn’t a mustwin, but a victory couldn’t hurt given the Aggies’ lack of success. “I can’t build this up as a do-ordie,” he said. “That’s not how you build programs and that’s not how you go through a process.” UNM head football coach Mike Locksley said he is expecting an any-

thing-goes mentality being that this weekend’s contest is a rivalry game. “It’s going to be an emotional, physical game,” he said. “The team that settles the quickest, ultimately, will be the team that wins.” No matter the outcome, Walker said he won’t lose any sleep. “A win would be great for us,” he said. “But I can’t say that I am going to go home Sunday night and commit suicide if we don’t get that accomplished.”
