WRC celebrates 40th anniversary by Megan Underwood news@dailylobo.com
Feminist activist Gloria Steinem said patriarchal religious institutions use baptisms to take the miracle of birth away from women. Steinem said the church perpetuates the idea that it is responsible for the birth of children in that babies are considered reborn through religious practices, such as baptism. “We’ve been dissuaded from really talking about it,” she said. “Its purpose is to take over the women who are giving birth.” Steinem was the keynote speaker for the 40th anniversary celebration of the UNM Women’s Resource Center and Women Studies Program. Before taking the stage, Steinem said she was very pleased to be a part of the celebration and that WRC and WMST are crucial to have on campus because they help promote wellbeing and cross-cultural understanding. “In a real sense, women studies, Native American Studies, African American studies, Asian American Studies, Gay and Lesbian studies — they’re all remedial studies,” she said. “So, one day we’ll be studying human history.” Steinem spoke on a wide array of topics including reproductive rights and health, domestic violence and
women in politics and education. She said it’s important for women to continue to fight for their rights and for their voices to be heard. “The biggest danger for all the movements of change is the notion that they’re over, that they’re in the past,” she said. Steinem said that issues such as equal pay are seen as social rather than political, which causes problems because it’s difficult to make consistent policies that are fair to women if the issues are not treated in a political manner. She said women make about 78 cents for every dollar a man makes, and that making women’s pay equal to men’s would help women support their families and help the economy. Steinem said that according to The Institute for Women’s Policy Research, equal pay would insert $200 billion into the economy and that the influx of money would create more jobs, because women would spend the money they earn. The celebration also recognized the founders and organizers of both WRC and WMST at UNM. Former director and one of the original founders of WMST Ann Nihlen said that when the program started in the 1970s, it existed in one room in Mesa Vista Hall. She said that organizing courses and events was difficult because the administration at the time

Steinem said that equal pay for women would allow women to support their families and the economy. was not supportive. Nihlen said she and her colleagues were barred from teaching a course on lesbianism and organizing an all-female dance. She also said members of the department were threatened with violence and that there were drive-by shootings at the Women’s Center. “When Women Studies got in the building we were allowed in the basement,” she said. “We had almost
nothing. And out of that starting, building a program that we had no idea how to do.” Nihlen said that over the course of many years, the program gained the support it needed to succeed and now has large spaces in the Humanities Building and Mesa Vista Hall and offers both a major and minor to undergraduates. Gail Baker, the first coordinator of WMST, said she’s very proud
of the strides the program has made during the last 40 years. She said the first women studies course began in spring 1971 at the Free University, which provided free classes to students. She said it took a lot of very strong women to start the program and the WRC in the ‘70s, and that it will take strong women to continue them in the future. “Now, I hope that they keep going and growing,” she said.

SAN DIEGO — Move over vampires, goblins and haunted houses, this kind of Halloween terror aims to shake up even the toughest warriors: An untold number of so-called zombies are descending on a counterterrorism summit attended by hundreds of Marines, Navy special ops, soldiers, police, firefighters and others to prepare them for their worst nightmares. “This is a very real exercise, this is not some type of big costume party,” said Brad Barker, president of Halo Corp, a security firm hosting the Oct. 31 training demonstration during the summit at a 44acre Paradise Point Resort island on a San Diego bay. “Everything that will be simulated at this event has already happened; it just hasn’t happened all at once on the same night. But the training is very real, it just happens to be the bad guys we’re having a little fun with.”
Hundreds of military, law enforcement and medical personnel will observe the Hollywood-style production of a zombie attack as part of their emergency response training. In the scenario, a VIP and his personal detail are trapped in a village and surrounded by zombies when a bomb explodes. The VIP is wounded and his team must move through the town while dodging bullets and shooting back at the invading zombies. At one point, some members of the team are bitten by zombies and must be taken to a field medical facility for decontamination and treatment. “No one knows what the zombies will do in our scenario, but quite frankly no one knows what a terrorist will do,” Barker said. “If a law enforcement officer sees a zombie and says, ‘Freeze, get your hands in the air!’ What’s the zombie going to do? He’s going to moan at you. If someone on PCP or some see Zombies PAGE 3

Report: iPod and charger stolen, no fingerprints
Report: Dodge Neon stolen from UNM Q Lot
UNMPD: pills robbed from maintenance shop
Cops: car trailer stolen from UNM parking lot
On Oct. 18, Elena Plis reported that the passenger side window of her car had been broken and that an unknown suspect had stolen an iPod and its charger from the car. According to the UNMPD report, she was parked on the south side of the Center for High Tech Materials. The officer dusted for fingerprints, but did not find any. There was no further information at the time of the report.
UNM student Starr Romero reported that her car was stolen from UNM’s Q Lot on Oct. 18. According to the UNMPD report, Romero parked the car on the north side of Q Lot at about 9 a.m. and found that it was missing when she returned at about 5 p.m. All UNMPD units and local police agencies were given notice of the theft, according to the report, and it was entered into the National Crime Information Center database.
A white car trailer was stolen from the UNM Student Family Parking Lot on Oct. 21, according to a police report. The trailer is still registered under Mark Stephen Barckholtz* in Michigan, though David McCumber, the man who reported the theft, said he purchased the trailer from Barckholtz. McCumber provided the officer with Barckholtz’s phone number, as he will be contacted if the trailer is found. No further information was available at the time of the report.
Cops: Fraternity house vandalized with eggs
Report: no suspect for broken SMLC door
UNM staff member Chris Duran reported to UNMPD on Oct. 17 that some of his prescription medications were removed from his lunch bag, which he left in the maintenance shop on the east side of Hokona Hall earlier that day. He noticed that the bag was open a couple of hours later and that 16 Diazepam and 20 Oxycodone pills were missing, according to the report. Duran told police that his prescriptions had been filled the day before so both bottles should have been full, according to the report. Duran said the shop remains locked and that only a few people have a key for the room, so he notified his supervisor. The case is pending further investigation.
At about 4:30 a.m. on Oct. 21, UNM student William Putz heard what sounded like loud banging outside the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house. According to a UNMPD report, Putz went outside to investigate and saw unknown suspects run to the east and south, the report said. The suspects had been throwing rocks and eggs at the building, according to the report, and three windows were reported broken. According to the report, the windows have an estimated total value not exceeding $1000. The case is considered closed pending further leads.
Between the evening of Oct. 18 and the morning of Oct. 19, an unknown suspect broke the first sheet of glass on a doublepaned entry door to the Science and Math Learning Center, according to a UNMPD report. Robert Ortiz, the Facilities Services Manager for the chemistry department, was reviewing the surveillance video for suspect information at the time of the report. No witnesses were located, and the damage to the door was valued at $999, according to the report.

Buildings thwart Sandy, catch fire and burn down by Larry Neumeister The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A tiny beachfront neighborhood told to evacuate before Sandy hit New York burned down as it was inundated by floodwaters, transforming a quaint corner of the Rockaways into a smokefilled debris field. By Tuesday morning, charred foundations of from 80 to 100 buildings were left in the sand at Breezy Point, a coastal community on Jamaica Bay known for its marshland and shorebirds. Firefighters arrived at 11 p.m. Monday to find water chest-high in the streets, and used a boat to make rescues as orange flames engulfed home after home. The water and high winds whipping the coast from Sandy kept the blaze raging for several hours as firefighters hauled hoses while sloshing in ankle-high water. “We watched the whole place go up in flames. It was hell night. It was the devil’s night,” said resident Thomas Reicherter. One firefighter suffered a minor injury and was taken to a hospital. Two civilians suffered minor injuries and were treated at the scene. Firefighters had to rescue several more, climbing onto an awning to take trapped people from an upstairs apartment with a roof that was catching fire from the house next door. A row of about 25 businesses, including a shoe
Zombies
repair store, burned with apartments above many of them. More than 190 firefighters were sent to the blaze, still putting out some pockets more than nine hours after it erupted, training hoses on the inside of a medical center. As daylight broke Tuesday, a stone statue that appeared to represent the Virgin Mary stood next to wooden slats and debriscaked mud, surrounded by no homes. Two logs not attached to anything crushed the top of a red Ford SUV. Residents walked aimlessly through water-filled streets with electrical wires dangling down in front of them.
“I stayed up all night... The screams. The fire. It was horrifying.” ~John Frawley The neighborhood was among the low-lying areas the mayor said were a flood danger a day before Sandy came ashore, shuttering the nation’s largest city and cutting power to hundreds of thousands. Gene Morizzo, a security guard at an ocean apartment complex in nearby Rockaway Park, said about half of the 300 or so residents insisted on staying behind, noting that Irene

other psychotic drug is told that, the truth is he’s not going to react to you.” The keynote speaker beforehand will be a retired top spook — former CIA Director Michael Hayden. “No doubt when a zombie apocalypse occurs, it’s going to be a federal incident, so we’re making it happen,” Barker said. Since word got out about the exercise, they’ve had calls from “every whackjob in the world” about whether the U.S. government is really preparing for a zombie event. Called “Zombie Apocalypse,” the exercise follows the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s campaign launched last year that urged Americans to get ready for a zombie apocalypse, as part of a catchy public health message about the importance of emergency preparedness. The Homeland Security Department jumped on board last month, telling citizens if they’re prepared for a zombie attack, they’ll be ready for real-life disasters like a hurricane, pandemic, earthquake or terrorist attack. A few suggestions were similar to a few of the 33 rules for dealing with zombies popularized in the 2009 movie “Zombieland,” which included “always carry a change of underwear” and “when in doubt, know your way out.” San Diego-based Halo Corp. founded by former military special ops and intelligence personnel, has been hosting the annual counterterrorism summit since 2006. The five-day Halo counterterrorism summit is an approved training event by the Homeland Security Grant Program and the Urban Areas Security Initiative, which provide funds to pay for the coursework on everything from the battleground tactics to combat wounds to cybersecurity. The summit has a $1,000 registration fee and runs Oct. 29-Nov 2.
Conferences attended by government officials have come under heightened scrutiny following an inspector general’s report on waste and abuse at a lavish 2010 Las Vegas conference that led to the resignation of General Services Administrator Martha Johnson. The Las Vegas conference featured a clown, a mind-reader and a rap video by an employee who made fun of the spending. Joe Newman, spokesman of the watchdog organization Project on Government Oversight, said he does not see the zombie exercise as frivolous. “We obviously are concerned about any expenditure that might seem frivolous or a waste of money but if they tie things together, there is a lesson there,” Newman said. “Obviously we’re not expecting a zombie apocalypse in the near future, but the effects of what might happen in a zombie apocalypse are probably similar to the type of things that happen in natural disasters and manmade disasters. They’re just having fun with it — we don’t have any problems with it as a teaching point.” Defense analyst Loren Thompson agreed. “The defining characteristics of zombies are that they’re unpredictable and resilient. That may be a good way to prepare for what the Pentagon calls asymmetric warfare,” Thompson said. Organizers can also avoid the pitfalls of using a mock enemy who could be identified by nationality, race or culture — something that could potentially be seen as offensive. “I can think of a couple of countries where the local leaders are somewhat zombie-like,” he joked. “But nobody is going to take this personally.”
didn’t hit the story hard a year ago amid the same warnings. “I kept telling people it’s a mandatory evacuation. They said, ‘Oh it’s nothing, Irene this. Irene that.” Residents couldn’t wait to get out on Tuesday. They were directed to a nearby firehouse in Far Rockaway, but that firehouse had been evacuated because it was under 5 feet of water and had no power. John Frawley, 57, said he made a mistake by staying behind. “I stayed up all night,” he said. “The screams. The fire. It was horrifying.” Frawley lived about five houses from the fire’s edge and said he spent the night terrified, “not knowing if the fire was going to jump the boulevard and come up to my house.” In September, the same neighborhood was struck by a tornado that hurled debris in the air, knocked out power and startled residents who once thought of twisters as a Midwestern phenomenon. The community of 12,000 borders Rockaway Park, where a historic boardwalk had been strewn around the sand, popped up in some spots like an opened can and heaved 30 to 40 feet in others. The beach’s lifeguard shack and restrooms were destroyed. Allison Miller stood on what was left of the buckled boardwalk in tears. “My home is gone,” she said.

Let’s keep Davie: A good football program is good for UNM Editor, UNM should do everything it can to keep Bob Davie, the head football coach, when his contract is up. The football team has already won more games than in the past three years combined. Football can bring in a lot of money for UNM because the capacity of University Stadium is around 40,000, which is twice the capacity of The Pit. A good football team puts UNM into the national spotlight with games on television, possible bowl-game appearances and sportscasters nationwide talking about UNM football. This might help UNM by having more high school seniors across the country take a look at UNM as a possible college. Bottom line: Having a good football team is good for the University of New Mexico.

Column
Obama’s malarkey aside, he’s still the lesser evil by Jason Darensburg Daily Lobo columnist opinion@dailylobo.com
H.L. Mencken wrote, “The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naive and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.” I know how that feels. I guess that makes me a radical. I recently lost my dear grandmother, and it got me thinking. When you lose a close family member, it’s only natural to reflect on your own life — and hopefully you learn to appreciate it a little bit more. I’m glad to be alive and I feel lucky to have such a great family. I’ve also met some wonderful people over the years, many of them right here at UNM. But I also got to thinking about how sad and disappointed I am with the state of our world, and how truly hopeless our situation is unless we change our ways, and fast. I have serious concerns about humanity’s future, and I’m especially troubled by the rising tide of antiintellectualism, racism and religious fanaticism in this country. A new form of political and religious extremism has recently taken hold of our once progressive nation. It bothers me that so many of us are becoming less tolerant of our fellow citizens at a time when more tolerance, compassion and forgiveness are urgently needed. The country is more polarized than ever. The extremists don’t simply choose to disagree with progressives, they literally want to eliminate us from society altogether. They’d be perfectly happy to send all the liberals, gays, immigrants and non-Christians away somewhere for reprogramming — or worse. I have never seen such a toxic environment in my lifetime. Political differences are a necessary fact of life in America, but since Obama’s election four years ago, the tone and intensity of what passes for political discourse has grown more vicious and sinister than
ever. Racism is clearly a major factor in all this. Nobody really wants to talk about it, though. I understand that. Americans appear to be getting dumber and crazier every day. I just don’t see real change happening any time soon. Not through the political process, anyway. The next generation of Americans will have things worse off than their parents for the first time since the Great Depression. They will inherit a debauched, corrupt political culture and a dying planet. It is certainly not all the fault of Obama. American society is devolving into chaos while the rest of the world continues to advance intellectually, socially and economically. Case in point: the bizarre and troubling attacks on women’s rights. Hypocritical moral crusaders have hijacked the political agenda and essentially shut down the democratic process for the sake of advancing their extremist ideology. Our government is now totally dysfunctional thanks to Citizens United, allowing for unlimited amounts of money to influence the electoral process. How did progressives allow our democratic principles to become so compromised? We’ve let a tiny, incredibly wealthy minority dictate the terms of our existence. In a nation ruled by corporate greed, the “bottom line” is all that matters. Naturally, costs must be cut and profits maximized. When assets belonging to everyone are taken from them and privatized for the sake of someone’s profit, only the shareholders win. We can no longer afford to allow America’s infrastructure to be sold to the highest bidder. That’s why it’s more important than ever to get out and vote this year. Progressives like me are once again faced with the prospect of having to vote for a candidate who doesn’t truly represent our values in order to make sure that the greater of the two political evils is ultimately defeated in this election. Never has the notion of having to choose between the lesser of two evils been more accurate. Mitt Romney must be defeated in 2012 or the consequences for the country could be dire, especially for women, children, workers,
college students, the sick and the elderly — like my grandmother. Traditionally, only about 30 percent of eligible voters actually vote in American elections. This is a pathetic and downright baffling state of affairs. Voting should be required of all citizens, like it is in some countries. The political landscape in America would certainly be quite different if everyone participated. Low voter turnout typically helps Republicans. To those who feel it’s not necessary to take the time to vote this year, especially young voters, I say this: I share your cynicism. Over the years, I’ve come to realize that the president of the United States is really more of a ceremonial position than anything else, kind of like the Queen of England. He rallies the troops, makes flowery speeches and kisses lots of babies. The political pendulum swings back and forth every few years, but the real power behind the throne lies with the president’s handlers in the militaryindustrial complex. This year, there are actually some pretty big differences in the two candidates’ philosophies, though: notably on health care and defense spending. If my choice has to be between Tweedledee and Tweedledum, I’m going to go with Tweedledee, if you know what I mean. It’s a shame that I can’t vote for who I really think should be president — Gary Johnson — just to ensure that I don’t throw away my vote. I sure as hell don’t want to hand the reins of the greatest power on earth to a sociopathic job-killer like Mitt Romney. At least Obama seems like a good man, and for the most part his policies reflect that. This race never should have been as close as it is. According to a recent survey, if only women voted, Obama would win by a landslide, and if only men voted, Romney would win. On top of everything else, we now have a huge gender gap in America. The sexes can’t even get along in this country. So why aren’t women flocking to the polls? Discuss. Even if Obama is re-elected in November, don’t expect too much, because the ideologues in control of the Republican Party will simply shut down the government if they don’t get their way.
They did it before and they won’t hesitate to do it again. I shudder to think what sort of ugly new obstructionist tactics they’d come up with in Obama’s second term. I’ll admit I voted for Obama in 2008 for symbolic reasons more than anything else. I’m not kidding myself. I’ve been pretty disappointed and even outraged by some of what Obama has done during the last four years. After all, he’s still a tool of Wall Street. He supports kidnapping and indefinite detention of citizens without trial; he didn’t close Guantanamo Bay as promised; he’s authorized the use of unmanned drones to assassinate and terrorize people in defiance of international law; he prolongs the failed drug war; Obamacare should be single payer … the list goes on. Still, the alternative is much worse. I’m sure H.L. Mencken would understand.

Happy Halloween!
by Brian Murphy and Nasser Karimi The Associated Press
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — It was a VIP audience for what was likely the last performance of the venerable Tehran Symphony Orchestra. Watching from the front row in late August was Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in what was seen as an endorsement from the ruling theocracy, which once tried to stamp out all music as a violation of Islamic values. Just two months later, the musicians are out of work, funding has run dry and a nearly 80-year-old institution that survived wars, coups and the 1979 Islamic Revolution was declared Tuesday in an apparently irreversible “coma” by media. The apparent tipping point was financial. It could be counted as collateral damage from Western sanctions that have left Iran’s economy so stressed that authorities are considering banning exports of staples such as rice and wheat in order to boost emergency stockpiles. “We are currently facing a
financial drought,” Parliament speaker Ali Larijani told a group of officials Monday. “We will have a more difficult year ahead.” The full story of the orchestra’s demise likely runs deeper. In a time of escalating showdowns with the West over Iran’s suspect nuclear program, the opposition of Iran’s clerical leadership toward anything deemed as too Western is gaining strength. “Musicians have had no support in recent years,” said Saba Radman, a music journalist and critic. “They feel very disillusioned.” The Tehran orchestra — by far the oldest and biggest of several concert hall-style ensembles in Iran — was often an easy target of hard-liners because of its roots during the era of the Westernbacked monarchy toppled by the Islamic Revolution. During its heyday in the 1960s and 70s, it hosted performances by world famous musicians such as violin virtuoso Yehudi Menuhin. The orchestra fell further from favor during a European tour after the riots triggered by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s disputed

Iran’s national symphony orchestra has been disbanded for lack of funds, musicians said — another sign of the effects of Western economic sanctions. Orchestra members told the semiofficial ILNA news agency Monday that they have not rehearsed together and have not been paid for three months. re-election in 2009. Opposition supporters in Europe used the concerts as forums to denounce Iran’s ruling system and flash the green wrist bands and scarves that symbolized the protest movement. Meanwhile, Islamic
conservatives — including forces within the powerful Revolutionary Guard — have reclaimed influence since the widespread crackdowns on reformists and can even exert muscle over Supreme Leader Khamenei. Cultural groups outside
direct state control, such as the Tehran orchestra, have often come under suspicion as potential liberal-leaning havens.

Preseason starts against Victory U by J.R. Oppenheim
assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim It’s time for the UNM men’s basketball team to face an opponent in a different uniform. After weeks of practice and two public intrasquad scrimmages, the Lobos play their first of two preseason exhibition games tonight when they host Victory University, a National Christian College Athletic Association program from Memphis, Tenn. Tip-off is 7 p.m. at The Pit. UNM will play another preseason exhibition Monday against New Mexico Highlands before opening the season on Nov. 12 against Davidson. “We’re sick of playing against each other,� UNM sophomore guard Hugh Greenwood said. “We’re looking forward to playing somebody else and getting the ball moving this season.� Tonight’s game marks the first time the Lobos have played a basketball game on Halloween night. Concession stands will give out candy to young trick-or-treaters decked out in costumes. UNM head coach Steve Alford said he does not know much about the personnel Victory will bring to the game. The exhibition’s purpose is to give the Lobos a chance to work on team aspects, such as substitution patterns and chemistry, in a format that will not affect the team’s regularseason record. As part of the agreement with Victory, the Lobos will be able to dictate some of the Eagles’ plays, such as working against a manon-man defense. “They’re exhibition games, and we end up having some control over what those teams do,� Alford said. “We can kind of set Victory
up and talk to Highlands as well. That’s all a part of the deal with the exhibition game.� UNM will play tonight without sophomore center Alex Kirk, who sprained his ankle during an intrasquad scrimmage on Saturday. Alford said Kirk did not suffer as bad an ankle sprain as some players have experienced in the past, but Alford prefers to keep him out of a game that will not appear as a win or loss toward UNM’s regular season. Senior guard Jamal Fenton, who was suspended by the NCAA for the first three regular-season games for an impermissible benefits violation, is eligible to play in both preseason exhibitions. Junior guards Kendall Williams and Tony Snell, along with freshman forward Nick Banyard, have been banged up in recent days, but Alford said they will play in the exhibition. “We’ve got to be fortunate, but I think that’s what college athletics are all about,� Alford said. “You’ve got to be fortunate and have luck go your way in the health department.� Greenwood said these home exhibition games will help younger players get real game experience playing on The Pit floor, which can be intimidating. “Our first real game of the season is not normally against an opponent like Davidson who is going to be really, really tough,� he said. “I know it took us three or four games last year to get into the swing of things. This year we have to be ready to go day one.�

UNM haunted by legends phantasmic and phony by Antonio Sanchez culture@dailylobo.com
A creak in Mesa Vista Hall and the sound of jingling keys in a University theater — blame it on Halloween spooks or not, but students may wonder if ghosts haunt the UNM campus. Student Ashley Brown said she experienced a paranormal encounter while working as a student electrician in Rodey Hall. Brown, who often walks across the small upstairs hallway that leads to the theater’s spotlights to perform electrician duties, said she’s heard mysterious noises in the last two years she has worked at the theater. “When you’re up there by yourself — we go up there to stock stuff or put stuff away — you can hear keys jingling,” Brown said. “I swear there’s keys jingling and the door would randomly open. We call him the ‘spot booth ghost.’” Brown said although her encounter was scary, dramastudent encounters with theater ghosts are nothing new. “It’s a theater thing; there’s always the ghost of the theater,” she said. Technical director Richard Hess said he is no stranger to theater ghosts — it’s just that all the theater ghosts live off-campus. “I’ve never heard anything that’s really out of the ordinary,” Hess said. “But then again, everyone here is a bit different and reacts to things differently. I’ve been in other theaters where you could smell cigar smoke in the space, along with hearing weird noises because there are a lot of weird noises that can go on in a theater.” Hess said of all the theaters he’s helped build sets for, his work at KiMo Theatre has been the most ghost-friendly. “There was a young boy, 12 years old, who was killed when a hot water tank exploded,” he said. “Since then, they’ve been doing offerings so the show will go good. There’s a little shrine that’s been set up.” Hess said offerings to the theater ghost range from doughnuts and toys to a signin sheet where the actors and crew can leave their names and comments.
Art & Music
Jorge Gajon / Daily Lobo Student Ashley Brown said she hears keys jingling and a closet door opens and closes sometimes when she’s working in Rodey Hall. It doesn’t freak her out too much, though—she said there are ghosts in most theaters. Even outside the theater, Hess said he’s encountered rumors of haunted buildings. “Years ago, when I was back in New York, I did date a girl where her house was supposedly haunted and heard things like the sound of someone running down the stairs toward the door, the actual door was locked and the screen door would open,” he said. Coronado and Alvarado community director Travis Checketts said he’s no stranger to ghostly rumors. Checketts has worked as the community director for the last two years at the University and has dealt with rumors that Coronado was once a mental hospital since his first day on the job. “People always go into rumors
and I think for them it’s fun, they like the rumors,” he said. “Coronado was opened fall of 1959, it’s never been a hospital, it’s always been a residence hall. The most I hear from people is that they hear noises — it’s an old building and sound travels differently than any other building, that’s really the honest truth. It’s never anything unexplained.” Checketts said from his experience as a coordinator at previous universities, older university buildings and ghostly rumors tend to go hand-in-hand. “I think it’s just neat that with the older buildings, they have this history and one thing leads to another and it balloons into a big story or a big rumor that never ends up being true,” he said.

History department chairman Charlie Steen said he has had to ward off ghost rumors about a building that was not just old, but had an actual tragedy as well. Steen said that in the early 1970s, three student football players entered a Mesa Vista Hall elevator. He said the three students began to mess around, leading to the unfortunate placement of one student’s head between the closing elevator doors. The student was decapitated. Steen has worked at Mesa Vista Hall since 1969 and said he has seen the incident turn from a student tragedy to a ghoulish rumor. “The stories are mostly about noises, and had it not been for the death of that student in the elevator, I think there would be no
excitement about it,” Steen said. “I’m not keen on those stories, I hear about them more in third and fourth person than someone who has actually seen something, but to my knowledge, nobody is skulking in the corners.” Steen said he is a fan of historical architecture, but he does understand why ghost stories tend to creep from the cracks of older buildings. “Old buildings are creepy, I like them very much, but they are full of noises and it’s just sort of natural,” he said. “When you’re working alone in the building, you do get apprehensive. I’ve never heard of a ghost story here in full daylight with the coming and going of how many hundreds of people in here — it’s always on weekends and at nights.”
