UNM sexual assault cover-up suit settled Payout and terms remain confidential By Justin Garcia & Andrew Gunn @Just516garc @agunnwrites Editor’s note: This article contains discussions of sexual assault and rape. The University of New Mexico settled a civil lawsuit pertaining to the school’s handling of a 2016 rape allegation brought by a former student. What UNM will pay the plaintiff — or to what degree they will admit fault — remains unclear. The settlement stemmed from a civil suit brought by former UNM student Teriana Bagley on Jan. 23 this year which alleged “a campaign of misinformation, intimidation and retaliation (was) conducted by and through Coach (Bob) Davie and the UNM football program.” UNM declined to provide a statement about the settlement or its terms except to say “the settlement is confidential per state statute.” The motion to dismiss and settle out of court came a week before the Board of Regents were set to vote on a contract buyout for former football coach Bob Davie’s contract on Dec. 10. The buyout is ex-
pected to be in the many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Davie was suspended in 2018 for his involvement in the alleged cover-up and interference with investigations. New Mexico’s Risk Management Division, which handles some lawsuits for public entities, has previously withheld settlement payments and terms made by New Mexico’s flagship institution from the public. It’s unclear whether Risk Management will release the details of the settlement after the legally allotted six-month holding period. At the time of the alleged rape, the University had been under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division since December 2014 due to UNM “not adequately respond(ing) to … reports of sexual assault,” according to the complaint. Below is a timeline of events leading up to the settlement of Teriana Bagley v. The University of New Mexico Board of Regents.
Chronology During the 2015-2016 school year, Bagley was studying nursing at UNM. According to the complaint, in the early morning hours of Feb. 19, 2016, she was raped by former UNM student and football
player Nias Martin. In a response filed in U.S. District Court on Mar. 6, 2016, UNM confirmed Bagley was “subjected to unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature by Nias Martin and that such conduct occurred in Mr. Martin’s bedroom in Lobo Village.” Martin stated in a UNMPD interview soon after the alleged rape that Bagley told him “no and stop” multiple times during the incident at Lobo Village, but “her actions of kissing him kept him having sex with her,” said UNM’s lawyers in court documents. Bagley contended in the complaint that Martin lied to UNMPD. She claimed he provided “contradictory information” to officers and “Martin eventually admitted to UNMPD that the plaintiff repeatedly told him ‘no’ and ‘stop’ while he was having sex with her.” After UNMPD asked Davie on Feb. 23 if he knew of Martin’s whereabouts in an attempt to execute a search warrant to obtain a DNA sample, Davie stated he had “dropped off Martin at an attorney’s office” and would ask him to contact UNMPD when he returned, according to UNM’s answer to the complaint. On the afternoon of the alleged rape, Bagley had DNA evidence

collected from her body. “Bruising and injuries” were documented as well, according to both UNM’s court filings and the original complaint. It wasn’t immediately clear why a DNA sample was never obtained from Martin following the opening of a UNMPD case on Feb. 20, when Bagley reported the alleged rape to campus police. After interviewing Martin and searching his apartment, UNMPD forwarded their report to the
University’s Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO.) The OEO is tasked with “investigating any allegations pertaining to Title IX violations and tak(ing) prompt effective action to end any misconduct that occurred, remedy its effects and prevent its recurrence,” according to their website. Davie called a team meeting after being made aware of the rape allegation, which UNM confirmed

UNM law students assist ASUNM to lobby for additional funds in Española water crisis 2020 NM LEGISLATURE
By Alex Hiett & Alyssa Martinez @Nmal1123 @amart4447
As 2019 comes to a close and next year’s New Mexico legislative session nears, ASUNM President Adam Biederwolf is preparing to request new capital outlay funds from the Roundhouse, while previous ASUNM President Becka Myers’ capital outlay request has yet to see completion. Last spring, Myers’ administration secured capital outlay from the legislature to fund solar panel installations on the roof of the Student Union Building (SUB). Before the project could start, it was discovered that the roof of the SUB had extensive weather damage. Biederwolf said because of the SUB’s roof damage, there are plans to redirect the solar panel installation to the roof of Zimmerman Library. “Once (Myers) got out of office, the funding was still there for this solar panel project, but the solar panels hadn’t been installed yet,” Biederwolf said. “Since the SUB had to renovate their roof due to leaks, we chose to move the project over to Zimmerman Library.” According to Biederwolf, the centrality of Zimmerman on campus coupled with its level of activity makes it “a good spot for renewable

energy.” He added that “higherups” at the University who deal with projects and facilities examined and supported the change. Biederwolf said he has his sights on safety for his take at a capital outlay request. “Campus safety is the biggest issue with this campus,” Biederwolf said. He cited a multi-choice survey answered by undergraduate students at UNM that supported a safety project at Central Avenue and Girard Boulevard. The project could range from $250,000 to $800,000, dependent on which of four plans his administration pursues. He and his cabinet will make a decision on which option to pursue over winter break. Biederwolf said police reports campus safety in that area.”

“Freeing up space, making it look a lot nicer, and getting rid of those walls where people can hide and do sketchy things (will) be a lot better for students,” Biederwolf said. Though UNMPD hasn’t responded to many incidents in that area this semester, according to their crime log map the Albuquerque Police Department has been called to that corner over fifty times in the last four months. Capital outlay requests, defenses of the lottery scholarship and other UNM related conversations will happen on Jan. 27 of the spring semester at UNM Day at the Roundhouse. Executive Director of Governmental Affairs for the ASUNM executive office Adrian Schmitt said that students who would like to attend UNM Day this legislative session can email asunmga@unm. edu or attend any UNM Day trainings. Schmitt said there will be no cost for students who decide to attend. Alyssa Martinez is a beat reporter at the Daily Lobo.

@AmandaBritt__ @ MakaylaEliboria University of New Mexico law students are assisting Española community members with legal advice through the Environmental Law Clinic as the town faces contaminated water. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) initiated a remedy a decade ago but has reported that the fix was inadequate to clean the deeper portions of the aquifer, which remain contaminated. "This is not something that most people can or should try to comprehend," said UNM School of Law Professor Clifford Villa. "There is a real role for educational institutions, like the University of New Mexico, to try to help local communities understand some really complex issues, including complex matters of regulation." In the late 1980s, a local dry cleaner contaminated the water supply in the area when chemicals leaked into the soil and then the aquifer lying below it. According to Villa, a "conventional treatment" involves pumping up the contaminated water, treating it and re-injecting it back into the ground. Instead, the EPA used a differ-
ent treatment — bioremediation. According to the EPA, bioremediation is the use of microbes to clean up Superfund sites. The growth of microbes that feed off of the contamination is prompted, leading them to essentially eat away the contamination and leave clean water behind. New microbes are not introduced in the site, but rather the microbes already in the soil are stimulated — thus growing their population. "It sounds like a really interesting idea," Villa said. "It’s sort of using the power of nature, harnessing nature, except that now you have to find the right bugs to eat the contamination. Maybe they’re not hungry." The second five-year review of the site, called the North Railroad Avenue Plume, conducted by the EPA in 2015 said that the remedy "has not functioned as designed and has not been effective in reducing contamination" in the deep zone aquifer, as reported in the document. Bioremediation was first implemented at the site ten years ago. In August 2019, the EPA sent a letter to the New Mexico Environment Department informing them that the Long-Term Response Action will be transferred to their oversight,

in court documents. What was said in the meeting, however, was disputed by both parties to the suit. Bagley’s attorneys contend Davie instructed his players to come to him rather than the OEO with any information about her. UNM attorney Quentin Smith responded by saying the University was “without sufficient knowledge or information to deny the allegations … and therefore, denies those allegations.” Witnesses who spoke on the condition of confidentiality during a later preliminary investigation corroborated accounts of Davie telling UNM football players to “get some dirt on this whore” during the closed-door meeting. Meanwhile, Martin continued to play for the football team amidst the OEO proceedings. Martin was repeatedly contacted by the OEO in an attempt to schedule a meeting and with instructions on how to respond to the allegations. Participation in any OEO investigation

Water is voluntary, according to departmental policies, and no disciplinary action was taken. Bagley eventually withdrew from the University amidst the turmoil and subsequently enrolled at a college in Arizona, according to the complaint. Further, she wasn’t notified of the outcome of the University’s Title IX investigation until February 2018, when she came to UNM from her residence in Arizona to “investigate the matter for herself.” UNM’s response in court filings denied those allegations. The lawsuit further alleged that, despite having opened a Title IX investigation on March 17, 2016 at Bagley’s express request, the OEO didn’t issue a “preliminary letter of determination finding probable cause” that Martin violated the University’s policy regarding sexual violence and sexual misconduct on Dec. 8, 2016 — nearly ten months after UNM was alerted to the alleged

sexual assault. Martin played in the Gildan New Mexico Bowl nine days later and graduated from UNM in the spring of 2017. In August of that year, UNM received a letter from a former football player who “identified specific concerns about the football program and culture,” including Davie’s handling of the allegations against Martin. Subsequently, the University conducted two investigations of the Athletics Department, hiring retired federal judge Bruce Black and later retaining the law firm of Hogan, Marren, Babbo & Rose Ltd. Davie was suspended for 30 days without pay in the spring of 2018 before being reinstated. Former Interim President Chaouki Abdallah said the investigations identified “blind spots” and violations of UNM policies, and the Athletics Department instituted mandatory Title IX and sensitivity training. Despite the rape allegations, Martin was briefly picked up by the Baltimore Ravens after graduating from the University. As of 2019, Martin played in the Arena Football League for the Baltimore Brigade. He was never arrested, and the 2nd District Attorney’s office never pursued criminal charges.

meaning this problem becomes the state’s responsibility instead of the federal government's. The 1980 Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) mandates that the EPA must review Superfund sites every five years, up to ten years after a site becomes functional after a remedy. Villa first became interested in the Española Superfund site about a year ago when one of his students, Mara Yarbrough, presented the problem as a class project highlighting the injustice to the area’s community. Yarbrough continues to gather information and work with people in the community of Española and Questa, helping them navigate legal issues and spread awareness of the situation in general. "In that ten-minute student presentation (from Yarbrough), I learned a lot about not just environmental problems, but the real apparent environmental injustice that that site represented particularly in contrast to another very similar site in Albuquerque," Villa said. That contrast dates back to 1989, when contaminated sites were found in both Albuquerque and 90 minutes north in Española. The contaminated sites were caused by the same source — an old dry cleaning business. "They were the same chemicals from dry-cleaning contamination," Villa said. "And yet for some reason, they chose the pump and treat technology in Albuquerque, but for Española they (the EPA) chose a very different technology." Before coming to UNM in 2015, Villa previously served as an attorney and legal counsel for the EPA for 22 years. Last month, Villa led a group of UNM law students — which included Yarbrough — on a trip up to northern New Mexico to learn more about the contamination plume in Española. They also visited another Superfund site in Questa.
"I thought it would be a wonderful learning experience for our law students to go and see those sites themselves," Villa said. "Particularly to be there and have an opportunity to talk with members of the local community and the local government and hear their concerns directly, interact with them." "It’s important that the students understand not just the law in abstract or on the front page, but how that law is applied in the real world (and) particularly the real world around us," Villa said. In addition to providing legal advice to the residents of Rio Arriba County, the Environmental Law Clinic also deals with a range of other environmental issues — from urban environmental justice communities that are experiencing disproportional pollution impacts to work with land grants and acequias in rural communities. Gabe Pacyniak, the faculty supervisor of the Natural Resources and Environmental Law Section of the clinic, said roughly 70% of the clientele they work with live in rural parts of New Mexico. The clinic often helps with property disputes, land grants and managing individuals’ water rights. "A lot of the work deals with the complicated legal issues in New Mexico," Pacyniak said. "Including some very significant pollution issues including hazardous waste and the kind of Superfund site issues that we see in various locations throughout the state."

Weini Kelati: A 2019 season that made her the best By Alanie Rael @AllyRael Four first-place wins, a third cross country All-American honor, a second consecutive NCAA Mountain Regional title win and one NCAA National Championship victory. This is just the beginning of the honors earned by University of New Mexico cross country runner Weini Kelati, who recently also earned the Honda Sports Award for 2019 — the most prestigious award given to deserving student-athletes. UNM’s 2019 cross country season ended with Kelati on top, with recognition for her junioryear feats coming from across the nation.
XC All-American Honor Administered by the USTFCCCA, the AllAmerican title is given to the top 40 cross country athletes who’ve competed in the national championship. This is Kelati’s third time receiving this honor. With one more season left in Kelati’s collegiate career, she has the potential to go all four years receiving this honor.
In the Mountain West Conference Not only did Kelati take the lead and run with it at the Mountain West Cross Country Championships, she also broke the women’s MWC record by 26 seconds. Mountain West named Kelati the Women’s Conference Athlete of the Year for the second consecutive year. She also earned a place on the All-Mountain West XC First Team. Twice this season, Kelati stood as the Mountain West Peak Athlete of the Week.

At UNM Kelati brought home the gold on Nov. 23 with a time of 19:11.2 at the NCAA Division I National Championship. She is the second individual XC athlete in program history to earn this title. In 2017, Ednah Kurgat made history as the first. In November, Kelati was named Female Athlete of the Year by the University of New Mexico Alumni Lettermen’s Association, who oversee the UNM Hall of Honor.
Honda Sports Award The most recent award earned by Kelati was the Honda Sports Award, which gave her the honor of Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year. The announcement was made on Wednesday that Kelati had won the accolade, ultimately beating out other athletes who competed in 12 different sports from over 1,000 NCAA member schools. UNM head coach Joe Franklin described the Honda Sports Award as the highest honor a student-athlete can achieve. "I am so grateful to be selected for this prestigious award and am excited for the future with another season of cross country still to go in my collegiate career," Kelati said in a press release sent by UNM Athletics on Wednesday. Kelati said it was great to follow in the steps of her teammate Ednah Kurgat in being honored by Honda. "It is always amazing to represent UNM, and I am proud to be a Lobo," Kelati said. The success of Kelati has made Lobo fans proud, along with Franklin who has coached the young Lobo through her triumphs during her time at UNM. “Weini has worked very hard to achieve everything she has accomplished in the classroom and on the cross country course,” Franklin said.
With a final senior season to prepare for, there is no doubt that the UNM community is looking forward to see what the highly decorated woman from Eritrea, Africa will achieve with her time remaining as a Lobo.

A small family for a small farm By Alanie Rael @AllyRael While 100% sustainability may be the long-term goal for some environmental activists, Santa Fe locals Kim Brown and Melissa Willis are far more interested in making a change with the land they have at their feet. As human beings, sustainability is more crucial than ever with increased climate change occurring over the last century. For some people, total sustainability is the overall goal. The thing about being human is that 100% sustainability isn’t 100% realistic — ever. People can not go without the convenience of their every day routine. The farfetched idea of farming and small agriculture seems out of reach for most, but Brown and Willis are the exceptions, embracing the challenge of living their version of a sustainable life. The couple lives on and maintains 10 acres of farmland in the small village of Villanueva, New Mexico. For them, owning a small farm is one of the ways they aim to reach a sustainable lifestyle. At their self proclaimed Evergrowing Farm, they are working to be realistically sustainable as they grow vegetables, fruits and other large crops on their rented property — as well as raise over five kinds of farm animals. The couple took on the challenges of maintaining a small farm after spending some years making a DIY urban farm, where they began their agricultural journey. After several feats of learning and growth, two moves and time spent finding the right fit for their family, Willis and Brown took on the role of caretakers in Villanueva — two hours from their everyday lives in Santa Fe.
Aries With the moon in your sign, this is an unusually good time to do some reflection on your life. Think deeply, but don’t get too wrapped up and forget to act. Taurus You will have an unusually good time creating new things this week. Use this new inspiration to push your boundaries. Gemini You may be feeling very stressed right now, but don’t forget that your friends can always help you.
In October, I spent a day with Brown and Willis at their farm and got to see all that they care for on the land. Even as someone who tries to be as environmentally aware as I can, I went to the Evergrowing Farm completely ignorant about the effort that goes into farming — even a small one. Willis and Brown spend hours every week feeding their goats, pigs, hens, ducks and turkeys, as well as harvesting eggs, fruits and vegetables. That comes after caring for the soil, throwing down mulch and keeping the ground clear of any unwanted pests (without pesticides). They pull water from an acequia for their gardens, animals and their orchards. Brown uses a tractor to turn the soil when needed, and the two rely on the animals to graze and fertilize their land. Typically Brown and Willis will go full circle by raising some animals for butcher or other reasons, like breeding purposes, or having milk and eggs. The entire time they taught me about what they do on a day to day — week to week basis — I couldn’t help but notice how stunning all the life is that is growing on the farm. We collected colorful eggs from the chicken coop. We toured around a rafter of red, white and blue turkeys. The slow browning of autumn mixed with the green of the leaves reflected beautifully with the sun. We munched on crunchy, fresh-picked apples and listened to the goats' bleat while we took in the mesa views that surround the small village. That much beauty makes any challenges bearable, but those challenges do not go overlooked when it comes to farming. It takes a lot of time, money and energy to keep up with the farm work, but Brown and Willis do it happily. They see the

payoff as worth the work. The deal they’ve made with their current landlord is as follows: When it comes to orchards, the landowner keeps 30% of what is harvested, while Willis and Brown keep the remaining 70%. Whatever else the couple wants to grow or raise is 100% their own. Pretty sweet deal, right? Well, it didn’t come by pure luck. The couple has chosen a kind of lifestyle that requires sacrifice, drawing a clear line between what they want and what they need and staying active in online communities dedicated to small farm agriculture. I followed them around their farm home in awe of how committed they are to nurturing their land, all while raising Ember, the couple’s six-yearold daughter. Willis and Brown told me that although the commute can be taxing for both them and Ember, they’ve noticed that she is being raised with skills and insight that her peers don’t have because of the valuable lessons a child can experience on a rural farm. Going back to the idea of sustainability, Willis spoke to me about their personal goal to reduce their carbon footprint and hope their farming practices contribute to reducing that footprint, along with their choice to buy local and remain educated about the growing issue of climate change. Willis and Brown told me that although they understand they will not be able to reach total sustainability, they’re doing their best to tread lightly on the planet and hopefully leave it a better place for future generations.

The Independent Student Voice of UNM since 1895
LETTER UNM’s Food Desert This moment, at the precipice of a new decade and in the throes of the indulgent winter festival, seems like a good time to have some hard conversations about nutrition. While poor diets are an issue of national concern with a tangled web of contributing factors, let’s observe the microcosm of UNM. To begin, a brief summary of UNM eats: Main Campus offers fast food chain vittles in the form of burgers, hot dogs, fries, fried chicken, more fries, pizza, salad, stir fry, sushi, burritos, more burgers, more fries, sandwiches, bagels. Grab and go convenience store foods, and local cafe snacks are available as well. There’s also a dining hall for on-campus dwellers. Meanwhile, North Campus has a hospital cafeteria, a greasy spoon-style diner, more fast food chain sandwiches, and a new bistro that serves a few healthy options and a lot of fries. Both campuses are sprinkled with vending machines stocked primarily with empty calories. In short, finding a healthy lunch or snack can be a challenge in this low-fresh-fruit-and-vegetable, high-fried-potato landscape. The bigger challenge, however, is resisting 1,000 calories of green chili cheeseburger and fries (or kung pao tofu with fried rice) after a morning of Spanish verbs, abstract painting, biostatistics, or whatever it is we’re here to do. Making healthy choices is tough through a haze of hunger. Herein lies the problem with UNM’s food options: Conventional wisdom assigns responsibility for following a healthy diet to the individual.
Libra With the new year coming up soon, this is the time to think about what you want to change or keep the same about your life.
Eating healthy is up to you—even when you’re surrounded by obesogenic, carcinogenic, gut-busting foods. In public health we know that the environment, and the social norms enforced therein, tends to have a bigger influence over what we eat than whether we know what we should eat. At UNM, a research institution made up of exceptionally educated people including more than a few nutrition nerds, our food environment is an affront to what we know about nutrition and health outcomes. This is not a suggestion to ban junk food—look, we all need French fries sometimes. It is a suggestion that the university make providing healthy, affordable foods in this learning community a priority. A person’s diet and nutrition determines not only long-term health outcomes, but also shorter-term mental health and cognitive performance (which is why nutritional psychiatry is an emerging field of research). Evidence also suggests healthier food environments lead to higher productivity and creativity. By failing to provide healthy food, UNM undermines its students, staff, faculty, and the institution at large. Rather than tempting people with fried potatoes at every corner, UNM’s leadership should resolve to make healthy eating easier. Alternately, the nutrition nerds of UNM might consider forming a coalition around this problem and holding the institution accountable for the unhealthy food environment it has created and maintained.

In an alternate experience of Thanksgiving weekend, several stores in Nob Hill opened up their doors for Small Business Saturday. American Express proposed the event back in 2010. It is now practiced nationwide on the Saturday following Thanksgiving. In Albuquerque, several small shops opened their doors to holiday shoppers. For many of these shops, the day provided an opportunity to interact with the community in a unique way. This was Steve Brewer’s take on Small Business Saturday as one
of the owners of Organic Books, a family-owned bookstore in Nob Hill. Brewer said his family has been operating their new and used bookstore since November of last year and experienced an even larger turnout for Small Business Saturday than last year — twice the amount of business than a normal day. He said there were a few hundred people who patronized his store on Saturday. "We did really well. It coincided with the first day that Albuquerque Rapid Transit (ART) was running, and so there were a lot of people who were trying out the new bus line and would stop by here while they were out and about," Brewer said. "For one day, at least, ART really helped." Dec. 5 will offer another opportunity to shop local in the Nob Hill area for those who missed Saturday's proceedings. The Nob Hill Shop and Stroll encourages the community to
visit and explore local businesses. This event is put on every year by a combined effort of businesses in the area, according to Brewer. According to the event’s information page, the festivities will begin at 5 p.m. and conclude by 10 p.m. and include discounts and special deals at local shops and restaurants. Amherst Drive will be closed to traffic between Silver and Central Avenues, allowing for shoppers to chow down on fare from one of the food trucks at the event and watch a tree lighting at the Nob Hill Business Center's "horseshoe-shaped” parking lot. Liz Dineen, owner of the Mariposa Gallery located just down the road from Organic Books, participated in the day of shopping and said Small Business Saturday is important for artists. It helps shoppers and art lovers to see new art from local artists. She repre-
City partners with UNM for south campus development By Lissa Knudsen @lissaknudsen Albuquerque city councilors unanimously approved a measure on Monday, Dec. 2 to officially declare their interest in working with the University of New Mexico in developing UNM’s south campus. The new development would include a retail and entertainment center, as well as an expanded science and technology research complex. The non-binding resolution was led by Councilor Pat Davis, whose District 6 seat includes most of UNM, and District 2 Councilor Isaac Benton. "The city is willing to lend its taxing authority to help with development, and UNM is willing to develop the property in a way that is most beneficial to the city," Davis said. Councilors are looking to move forward with a Tax Increment for
Development District (TIDD) for the 90-acre UNM south campus property at Avenida Cesar Chavez and I-25. Future gross receipts taxes would be diverted to UNM to pay off the upfront infrastructure costs of developing the land for things like putting in roads, sewers, sidewalks, drainage and public transportation stops. The TIDD would allow UNM to keep gross receipts tax revenue it collects from the retailers and other leases as a way to pay off the costs of developing the property. According to businessdictionary.com, this process is called a "tax abatement." This type of tax agreement is typically made with private entities to incentivize economic growth. This is the first time the city has considered a TIDD with a public entity like UNM. The rules are a little different since UNM, as a state entity, does not have to pay property taxes. Kim Murphy, a development
consultant for the Lobo Development Corporation, told city councilors that UNM wants to retain ownership of the land. The private businesses that set up shop will lease the spaces rather than purchase them. Murphy made the case that the property has the potential to be regionally and economically significant because it is located next to I-25, there are 100,000 employees located within 10 miles of the location, more than 1.3 million people visit the area’s athletic venues each year and over 40,000 students attend CNM and UNM each semester. The resolution’s sponsors said city residents who live near the area have been asking for a grocery store and additional entertainment and dining options, and sponsors are optimistic this new project will be in line with their requests. In addition to appealing to the neighboring communities, Murphy made a point of saying students, staff

sents 50 artists who are almost all from New Mexico. "Not only are you supporting small businesses, you are supporting New Mexican artists. The gallery’s whole concept has been to represent New Mexican art, and that has been the tradition of the gallery," Dineen said. The gallery includes a large variety of art mediums including jewelry, pottery, sculptures and paintings. The gallery will be open for the Shop and Stroll event on Thursday in the hopes that people will come to see the great variety of art, Dineen said. The Herb Store is another local shop in Albuquerque that has been around for decades. The store sells medicinal herbs, teas, supplements, soaps, soaks, candles and more, with a constant flow of people coming in and out. According to herbalist Ben Stoops, more customers came in both on
Black Friday and Small Business Saturday than normally come in on any given day of the week. The Herb Store will also offer discounts storewide and raffle prizes throughout the day on Thursday in an effort to draw people in and be a part of the experience. According to Stoops, the store has been participating in the Nob Hill Shop and Stroll year after year for well over a decade. "Shopping local is good for the local economy and good for the economy of the nation. Events like Shop and stroll are really good for places like this — it helps bring traffic into this area, which since the advent of the ART project has been suffering," Stoops said.
and faculty will also be consulted about how the development can best meet their needs and interests. "As we move forward, we would like to get input from the entire University community," Murphy said. Development at UNM's south campus has been a long time coming. In 2015, the University had plans to build a Wendy’s restaurant, partner with Marble Brewery to put in a taproom and a stage for live music, restaurants and a coffee shop at the intersection of University Boulevard and Avenida Cesar Chavez. However, plans fell through after Marble Development became hesitant about the monetary figures and backed out of the partnership as reported in the Daily Lobo. Throughout his tenure as a city councilor, Isaac Benton has been a vocal opponent of UNM’s previous attempts to build on south campus, including the Lobo Village development. Now one of the TIDD resolution’s co-sponsors, Benton championed the newfound collaborative relationship between the city and UNM but asked UNM officials to be cognizant of two areas of potential discontent with the
surrounding neighborhoods: 1) The impact on traffic at the University and Gibson intersection 2) The preservation of trails, parks and open space within the development Councilor Cynthia Borrego shared that Bruce Thompson, the vice president of the Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority (AMAFCA), had a concern that if the taxes are abated AMAFCA would experience a reduction in tax revenue but still be expected to do the storm drain improvements. With the City Council’s approval, UNM officials say they will now approach the county and state for additional support. The Board of Regents are expected to vote on the finalized development plan at their May 12, 2020 meeting. If there are no delays, the plan would go before the City Council for final approval on June 1, 2020.

NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO
Women’s basketball loses in overtime at Boise State By Angelina Pompeo @PompeoAngelina The University of New Mexico women’s basketball team (6-2) met their match in a tight game on the road against Boise State (5-4) on Dec. 4, losing 83-82 in overtime. During the Thanksgiving weekend, the Lobos played in a small tournament in Cancun, Mexico. UNM beat Missouri 71-68 but ended up losing to 23rd ranked West Virginia 73-6is 0. Coming out of that loss, the New Mexico women traveled to Idaho to play their Mountain West
Conference opponents. At the start of the game, UNM won the jump ball but Boise State immediately embarked on a 9-0 run in the first minute of the game, forcing the Lobos to call their first timeout. At the eightminute mark, UNM put up their first two points only to be shut down by the Broncos. Throughout the quarter, Boise State kept its lead at six or more points and ended the first quarter with a score of 27-21. Jayla Everett made nine points for the Lobos and only missed one shot out of her five attempts. Both teams also had a mere three fouls apiece. In the second quarter, both
teams again began to ricochet points off of each other. The Broncos out-rebounded the Lobos during the first half, contributing to their lead. Multiple times UNM tried to close the lead, only to have Boise State break away. In the final few seconds of the quarter, UNM got within two points of the Broncos, managing to lessen the lead. Jaedyn De La Cerda became the highest scorer for the Lobos and the game thus far by scoring 14 points. De La Cerda made five out of her eight shot attempts. At the start of the second half, New Mexico’s Ahlise Hurst scored a three-pointer that put the Lobos ahead. This put a seven-point run
the game into overtime. With the extra time, both teams played fiercely — BSU finished on top but won by only one point, 83-82. After the Broncos took the last shot of the game with 11 seconds to spare, the Lobos tried to put up shots to potentially win the game but none fell through. Despite the close loss, De La Cerda stepped up as a leader for the Lobos, showing her skills as an offensive player. Her 19 points kept New Mexico in the game. For Boise State, Mallory McGwire put up 21 points and came down with 17 rebounds, giving her the only double-double of the night. The Lobos' next game is Saturday, Dec. 7 at home against Wyoming at 2 p.m.
into effect by the Lobos, which ended in a timeout and a threepoint jumper from the Broncos. Both teams exchanged points and the lead until Jordan Hosey made two jumpers for the Lobos which caused their lead to be extended. The Lobos ended the third quarter up 64-59. De La Cerda had a total of 19 points under her belt and Everett marked it up to 13. The fourth quarter saw the Broncos fight for their dominance right out of the gate, attempting to catch up to New Mexico’s strong third quarter energy. The game was kept close throughout the final period. By the buzzer, the score was tied at 77-77, forcing

Lyle catches fire as Lobos scrape by in conference opener By Joe Rull @rulljoe The University of New Mexico men’s basketball team (8-2, 1-0 MWC) triumphed 80-78 Wednesday night against Boise State (4-3, 0-1 MWC), now having recorded a victory in their conference opener for the ninth consecutive season. Boise State got off to a hot start from the field, shooting 9-for-11 in the game’s opening minutes,
including an opening 8-0 run. For much of the first half, UNM played catch-up, managing just 24 seconds with the lead in the first half. After Boise’s quick start, UNM regained composure and the remainder of the first half saw a back-and-forth battle, with neither team able to take command. Senior guard JaQuan Lyle came out firing, leading the Lobos with 16 points in the first half and locking stride with senior Boise guard Justinian Jessup, who also recorded 16 points in the opening frame. "(My teammates) put the ball in
my hands and trust me to make the right plays ... Every time I step on the court, whoever’s in front of me, I don't think they can guard me," Lyle said after the game. At the 20-minute mark, both teams went into the locker room locked in a 39-39 tie. The second half was more of the same, as neither UNM or BSU could pull away. Lobo senior Carlton Bragg was a relative non-factor in the first half but came alive when it counted, finishing with 17 points and nine rebounds and maintaining his place among the

conference's rebounding leaders. The second half saw 15 lead changes and seven ties. Junior guard and potential NBA hopeful Derrick Alston contributed 15 second half points for BSU to round out a 20 point, six assist night while Jessup stayed hot from beyond the arc, finishing with a season-high 24 points that included 6-for-10 shooting from deep. A major turning point came with five minutes left in the game, when a double-technical foul was called on Bragg and BSU's RJ Williams. Bragg sank both free throws, giving UNM a 70-68 lead, while Williams was ejected. Both teams continued trading free throws and field goals. A Bragg layup with 34 seconds remaining gave UNM the lead for good, assisted by junior guard and Mountain West assists leader JJ Caldwell. "(Caldwell) keeps us all balanced," Lyle said after the game. "He never looks rattled." Boise had multiple attempts to take the lead in the game’s waning seconds, but Jessup’s contested desperation three at the final buzzer hit the side of the backboard and UNM walked away with a 80-78 victory. Boise’s offense thrived from three point territory Wednesday night, finishing 14-for-28 where UNM converted just three of its 14 (21.4%) attempts from distance. UNM’s three-point defense has been a point of concern this sea-
son, but head coach Paul Weir mentioned that the Lobos’ perimeter defense improved throughout the game. "I thought we were much more attentive (to the perimeter) as the game went on ... They missed one when it counted, that’s all I know," Weir said. "That ended up kind of sealing the deal for us." Lyle finished strong, tying his season-high with 31 points while adding six assists, continuing a hot start to his first season since returning from two years of being sidelined with injury. "I know (Lyle has) only had this one year ... But I think he’s going to be one of the greats here (at UNM)," Weir said. With the win, UNM improves to 8-2, good enough for Weir’s best 10-game start with UNM and his best overall start since 201617. That season, his New Mexico State team started 8-2 en route to a 28-6 season and a berth in the NCAA tournament. Looking forward, Boise State takes on Colorado State at home Saturday afternoon, while the Lobos travel to Wyoming on Saturday to continue their conference schedule.
