The University of New Mexico’s Emergency Management department issued a university-wide statement on Friday informing students about the novel coronavirus outbreak. The flu-like illness has infected over 16,000 people globally and taken at least 304 lives to date, according to the World Health Organization, which declared the outbreak a global health emergency last week. Originating in Wuhan, China, the coronavirus has spread to at least 25 countries, including the United States where a ninth case was confirmed on Feb. 2, in California. The news comes days after U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar II declared a public health emergency for the entire country. Despite the rising number of confirmed cases across the globe, UNM officials assure students the outbreak in its current state doesn’t pose an urgent risk to New Mexican residents. UNM Student Health and Counseling (SHAC) Infection Control Officer Lisa Leahigh said the risk in the United States and particularly in New Mexico is very low. “The World Health Organization, in terms of their declaration of it being an emergency, is not so much their concern of places like the United

States, but more for countries that have a poor healthcare infrastructure being able to respond to an infectious disease outbreak,” Leahigh said. “We’re less at risk here in the United States and in New Mexico particularly and on campus. You keep boiling that down smaller and smaller, so we’re at very low risk.” News of a confirmed case of coronavirus on Arizona State University campus hit home for many New Mexicans just a state away. Officials at UNM say they have established a course of action in the event that the coronavirus reaches UNM, though were reluctant to delve into detail. “We absolutely have plans in place, but we don’t generally talk about what our tactical response policy is,” said Byron Piatt, UNM’s Emergency Manager. Piatt said he believes healthcare professionals in the United States could mitigate human-to-human spread of the virus. While Piatt declined to describe UNM’s procedure set to address a hypothetical coronavirus case on campus, UNM SHAC Interim Executive Director Dr. James Wilterding offered insight into what could take place. “Let’s say someone comes in here and we decided that they’ve potentially been exposed and that they have symptoms consistent with coronavirus,” Wilterding said. “We’d immediately contact [the Depart-

@loreena_cain Layla Saad, author of “Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World and Become a Good Ancestor” visited Bookworks in Albuquerque as a stop on her national book tour. The Jan. 31 event filled the small store, leaving only standing room after the chairs were filled. Saad spoke not only about her book but about racism and

how it appears especially in liberal white women. Saad published her book “Me and White Supremacy” in 2019. The book guides readers through a 28-day journey to recognize and take steps towards eliminating the ways readers unwittingly participate in white supremacy. While the first 28-days are designed to start this journey, Saad makes it clear that combating racism and white supremacy is a lifelong endeavor. During the event Saad also teased that she is working on a children’s book, to help chil-

Saad began getting public attention in 2017 when she wrote a controversial article called “I Need to Talk to Spiritual White Women about White Supremacy.” While many people resonated with the article and it earned Saad a large online following, she also got some very negative reactions online. After the publication of this article, Saad said she remembers, “Every time I go into my inbox, I don’t know whether it’s

@lissaknudsen New Mexico is one step closer to establishing a licensure process for e-cigarette and other tobacco product retailers and raising the age of purchase of all tobacco products to twenty-one. Senate Bill 131, the Tobacco Products Act, sponsored by Sen. Linda Lopez cleared the Senate Public Affairs Committee on Friday Jan 31, with a unanimous do pass. Though the bill moved easily through the Senate Public Affairs Committee, there are two possible amendments that don’t bode well for the bill: local preemption and banning flavors. Local preemption gives governments “the right to be even stricter with their tobacco laws than (the state) is,” said Rep. Liz Thomson in an interview with the Daily Lobo. “(The vaping) industry wants that out and the City of Albuquerque and some of the advocates… the American Heart Association, the American Lung Association, and the American Cancer Society want to keep that in,” Thomson said. She went on to explain the bill could mean that if the state did not ban e-cigarette retailers from selling flavors, the City of Albuquerque, for example, would be allowed to do so.

The other issue of contention is banning flavors. According to Gregory Conley, the president of the American Vaping Association, about 90% of vape shops sales are made up of fruit and sweet flavors. “Flavors were actually invented in these products because consumers back in 2009/2010. Long before the tobacco industry even thought e-cigarettes were viable, they demanded flavors… they started creating their own and so the industry responded,” said Conley in an interview on CSPAN. Thomson, on the other hand, said flavors are the gateway to youth addiction and that she begged the governor’s staff to include a ban in this year’s message but they declined. According to Thomson, the governor’s office told her, “until we have the licensure in place it would be really hard to police (a flavor ban), so they want to get the licensing in place first and then my plan, anyway, is to go after flavors next year.” The recent e-cigarette epidemic among youth prompted the U.S. Surgeon General to release an advisory calling for action. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website,“e-cigarette use increased 78% among high school students..., from 11.7% in 2017 to 20.8% in 2018. In 2018, more than 3.6 million U.S. youth, including 1 in 5 high school students and 1 in 20

However, Wilterding said that the seasonal flu poses a larger threat than coronavirus. “It’s actually more likely that you’re going to contract the flu and die of that in New Mexico right now than it is coronavirus,” Wilterding said. Amidst a surge of concern about the outbreak making its rounds on social media, UNM officials warned against the spread of misinformation. While UNM doesn't view the outbreak as a threat to campus, the statement issued Friday noted UNM “will continue to monitor the

CDC reported that across the United States 2,602 people have been hospitalized for e-cigarette, or vaping, product use associated lung injury (EVALI) with 57 people having died. Though the CDC has confirmed most of those cases are due to THC vaping, researchers argue that the ingredients found in all vape liquid, in-

I would say be informed. Don’t worry, but be informed.” At present, UNM’s Global Education Office (GEO) confirmed that no UNM students or researchers are currently abroad in China, nor have any recently returned from corona-

virus-afflicted regions. While UNM’s campus hosts around 200 international students and scholars from China, UNM Director of International Student and Scholar Services Linda Melville noted that nearly all of these individuals would have arrived to campus by January 21st, meaning they’ve been at UNM past the end of the incubation period for the virus as estimated by the CDC.

Home is where the heart is: UNM prof discusses history of houses By Amanda Britt @amandabritt__ Since the beginnings of human civilization, the idea of a household, with its focus around a fire, is a fundamental unit of human social interaction and organization, according to Professor of Anthropology James Boone. Maxwell Museum of Anthropology hosted the lecture titled “A Natural History of Houses” as a part of their Ancestors Lecture series Thursday evening before a full auditorium in Hibben Hall. The first lecture of this series was given in 1990, the year the Maxwell Museum’s ancestors exhibition opened, by Scientific Curator Erik Trinkhaus. Since 2000,

an Ancestors Lecture has been given every year. Boone delivered this year’s addition to the series and discussed this history of houses and self-domestication as it relates to humans and other species. Most of Boone’s lecture centered around the work of Claude Levi-Strauss, a French social anthropologist and a leading figure for structural anthropology. Boone said the idea of being selfdomesticating animals is something unique to human kind. “The most interesting thing about domestication is human self domestication — that we domesticated ourselves to be able to get along and cooperate with other people in our household and in our community,” Boone said. “It seems to come down

to a kind of self-domestication that's very similar to the domestication process with animals particularly animals that we can really connect with like dogs.” According to Boone the formation of human households requires domestication. This can also be seen in other animals that build homes and have complex societies like fire ants. Boone uses the idea of niche construction to describe a distinct function of social behavior. An example of this is the way beavers build dams to live in, or how spiders build webs to catch their prey. “Domestication is sort of a central process in the formation of human households and actually the other households of other animals that form these kinds of houses

like bees and beavers.” As for Boone, he said the most interesting room in a house is the living room. “I always liked the living room,” Boone said. “I always do all my work in the living room. It's a big room and you can kind of look around and see what's going on around the house. I have two kids so I do my work while I’m watching them.” According to Boone’s lecture, the house has a deep history dating back to the paleolithic age about 300,000 years ago when humans first gathered together in small groups around fire. Fire acted as a hearth or focus of a family unit. Gathering around a fire could protect humans from predators, ensure they had cooked meat,

provide warmth and light, as well as lead to fire based technology like torches and arrows. Boone has been a professor at the University of New Mexico since 1987. His interests are in the evolution of complex societies and evolutionary ecology with a focus on the energetics of conspicuous consumption. The Maxwell Museum will host an ethnology lecture February 20, titled “Objects of Attraction: Understanding Material Goods in Indegenious Amazonian Cosmologies.”

going to be ‘thank you so much for writing this letter somebody needed to say it’ or ‘who the hell do you think you are?’ and then expletives of racial slurs and Islamophobic hate.” A year later, after a break from her anti-racism work, and focusing on self-care, the first incarnation of her book began as a series of Instagram posts. In the summer of 2018, she wrote 28 Instagram posts in which she challenged her followers to address the ways that they uphold white supremacy. “We started with 19,000 followers when I started the challenge,” Saad said, “By the end of it that number had more than doubled.”

Reflecting on the undertaking of the Instagram challenge Saad said, “The challenge was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done but I just knew something important was happening I knew I had to show up fully in it.” In the winter of 2018, these Instagram posts were collected alongside examples of white supremacy and a passage on self-care that is meant to be followed while undertaking this challenge. This collection was made into a free online workbook. The idea of self-care resonated with the audience on Friday who were preparing to undertake Saad’s 28-day journey to recognize and change the ways

people are complicit in white supremacy. Tara Hackel and Laura Steele, two audience members agreed on the importance of self-care in activism. “When I first started getting into identity, power and oppression-based work it was really easy to do what Layla talked about. I started to burn out.” Hackle says, “You need to pace yourself and focus on self-care.” When the workbook was released Saad was alarmed once again at its popularity. “Within three days 11,000 people had downloaded the workbook,” Saad says, “Within six months, a 100,000 people had

accessed the free workbook. It became its own movement.” In its final form, “Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World and Become a Good Ancestor” was published as a book that includes the original 28-day Instagram challenge as well as examples and stories that highlight the way white supremacy is a part of our lives. Gloria Taradash, who attended the Bookworks event, appreciated Saad’s ability to be straightforward when talking about a topic as sensitive as race. “It’s hard to talk about racism,” Taradash says. “Especially as women, we are so careful about our feelings and our relationships with other women, but

she was very straight forward. Women are the ones who can really take a look at ourselves and can make a difference.” Saad finished her discussion by encouraging the audience to become good ancestors, “The world when you’re gone will be impacted by the way you lived.” Saad said, “Everyone who came into contact with you in your life will be impacted by you. You have an opportunity to create a different kind of world by the choices that you make today.” Loreena Cain is a freelance reporter for the Daily Lobo.

UNM-ROTC to get new home

By Justin Garcia @just516garc

It’s a bit of a fixer-upper, but the former Alpha Chi Omega house is set to become the new home of all three ROTC programs at the University of New Mexico. At least $8 million will go toward the renovation, including $1 million in capital outlay from State Senate Minority Whip Bill Payne (R-Albuquerque) and $7 million from a 2018 GO bond. “To get an ROTC scholarship is as

competitive as going to one of the service academies, in fact it’s probably more competitive because a lot of kids don't want to go to Annapolis. They'd rather go to a university,” Payne told the Daily Lobo. It’s unclear if the $8 million will be enough to fully renovate the vacant sorority. “We’re still short,” UNM lobbyist Joe Thomspon said. “But not real short.” Neither Thompson nor Payne said they knew how much more the project might require. The project is currently operating with a budget of $6.8 million, according to University Architect Amy Coburn.

UNM lobbyist Matt Munoz did not respond to comment. UNM’s three ROTC programs are scattered across the main campus over six buildings. The program’s purpose is to train military officers for active service after college. “We’ve had Lobos serving in World War I, World War II, the Korean Conflict, Vietnam and even into the current conflicts,” said Joe McKinney, retired university planner emeritus told the UNM Newsroom in 2017. “The University has been a military friendly school for quite some time.” For Army ROTC, the new space is a welcome change.

Army ROTC moved out of their building on Lomas into temporary facilities, according to Erik Sevigny, the Army ROTC's senior enrollment officer at UNM. In 2018, Sevigny told KOB that renovating Army ROTC’s old facility would be the equivalent to putting “lipstick on a pig.” Navy ROTC declined to comment on the new facility.

Q&A: Men’s Tennis Head Coach Ben Dunbar By Andrew Gunn @agunnwrites Editor’s note: The following interview with men’s tennis Head Coach Ben Dunbar has been lightly edited for clarity and length. The full transcript can be found online at dailylobo.com. Ben Dunbar’s fourth season at the helm of men’s tennis hasn’t exactly gotten off to an advantageous start. After four matches, the University of New Mexico men’s tennis team is still winless, dropping each fixture on a difficult road stretch — sometimes by overwhelming margins. Dunbar, despite his program’s

woeful opening record, maintains his team is ready to start fresh at home and still holds an optimistic outlook on the remainder of the 2020 campaign. The Daily Lobo recently spoke with him about the UNM tennis community’s history, negativity in the Athletics Department and free coffee and bagels at home matches, among other topics. Daily Lobo: Could you describe why you think men’s tennis is an important part of the University community? What in your eyes is important or noteworthy about the program? Ben Dunbar: I think, historically, we’ve been one of the most successful sports at UNM. Just from looking at end-of-season rankings, I think maybe 24 out of the last 26 years we’ve been

Student Support Services—TRIO First Generation Students Workshops:

ranked inside the top 75 schools in the country to finish the year. I think it’s consistently been one of the high achieving sports. We’re coming off a year where we went 7-0 in the Mountain West regular season, so we cleaned up to win the conference regular season title. So I think we’re coming off a strong year, but also I think traditionally our program competes in Mountain West Conference championships year in and year out. We’ve had a consistent history of being ranked inside the top 75 of the tennis rankings. Bear in mind, there’s 240 programs, I think, and being ranked inside the top 75 for that many years is pretty impressive. We also offer a product that’s probably different to some other sports in that you can come to the

tennis matches for free. Matches normally take somewhere in the region of three hours, and I think it’s a lot of fun when we tend to get people to come out. DL: How do collegiate tennis teams get ranked nationally, and how do rankings factor into the postseason? BD: It’s through the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA). They release the top 25 for the first four or five weeks of the season, then they go to top 50, and the last ranking of the year is a top 75 ranking. Really, to make the NCAA tournament, we have to win the Mountain West or be ranked inside the top 43 teams in the country. The guys also work incredibly hard to kind of carry on the legacy that has come before them

ART STILL SUCKS

IT’S CALLED CANNIBIS I read the Daily Lobo frequently, and I find it an engaging shortformat news source. However, recently, with the statewide discussion surrounding recreational cannabis legalization intensifying, I find myself disappointed with its choice of words. In several articles from various contributors, what is otherwise a concise, informative piece of journalism is caught up in the language; words like “pot,” “weed,” and “dope” are used as synonymous with the flowering buds of the genus Cannabis. However, these terms, and even the more ubiquitous “marijuana,” bring with them connotations that distract from the journalistic intent of an article. To call cannabis “pot,” “weed,” “dope,” or “marijuana” is to delegitimize it by framing the discussion and unintentionally priming the reader. These words hearken back to the preconceptions of yesteryear. “Marijuana” (or its more outdated alternate spelling, marihuana) originally came into common usage around the turn of the century, used by opponents of its use and legalization to conjure negative associations from its foreign-sounding name, and to create a pejorative association with the Hispanic community. The other aforementioned terms are mere slang, and respectively connote the less-educated (dope), the invasive (weed), and a simple throwaway euphemism (pot). In many official contexts, the term “cannabis” is preferred, such as in the United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, Canada’s 2018 Cannabis Act, and throughout the booming cannabis industry in this country. This may all seem like overreaction. After all, slang is only slang because it is in common usage. However, the discussion of very real social, political, economic, and cultural impacts of statewide legalization merits more serious consideration, and with it more serious diction. Legislation governing alcoholic beverages does not generally include terms such as “booze,” “sauce,” “liquid courage,” “hooch,” or any other of myriad nicknames; neither should the journalism surrounding it. Similarly, the discussion of cannabis legalization should be a discussion of the product in question: cannabis. Not terms taken from the 1937 Marihuana Tax Act, nor taken from news media of decades past when public opinion was not as favorable as it is today, nor taken from casual conversations overheard around campus. It’s a serious issue – let’s have a serious discussion. James M. Goodman Political Science Undergraduate

CORRECTIONS

Anyone who frequents Central Avenue is likely to witness cars making illegal U-turns through the ART bus lanes, or see pedestrians jaywalking across them at will. Over a dozen accidents with the ART bus system have created CARnage on our streets and produced wrecks that resemble modern ART work. Proposals to issue $80 tickets to these offenders are impractical and hardly ever enforced. Doing so would require a permanent police presence, and I think many of us would agree that our police officers have more important law enforcement priorities than issuing jaywalking tickets. Some people may want to see ART dismantled, but we have now spent over $130 million on this system, so getting rid of it at this point would be a waste. What is needed, to make ART

work, is physical barriers to deter drivers and pedestrians from crossing. At the same time, more closely spaced cross walks should also be added. The “Stay In Your Lane” slogan adopted by ART planners has proven to be unrealistic, and wishful thinking. A stripe of paint will simply not be enough, in many cases, to encourage our frustrated drivers and pedestrians to do the right thing. Flexible plastic lane delineators, also known as flexipoles, should be installed in areas where accidents and jaywalking are frequent. A cable or fencing run between these poles could also deter pedestrians from crossing in undesignated areas. All of this will cost money, but it will pay for itself by preventing accidents, saving lives, and reducing potential lawsuits. I believe that barriers and addi-

tional crosswalks could be installed over the next year at night, when ART is not running, for a tiny fraction of what it cost to build ART in the first place. Fencing is common in other public transit systems and should have been considered here. Right now the City seems to think that they can simply run a few ads and put up a few signs telling people to stop making illegal turns and jaywalking. It is true that they could do a much better job of educating the public about ART. However, this is too little and too late to address a public safety hazard of this magnitude. We need to fix this poorly designed system and Make ART Work safely for all our citizens. Aaron Cowan OILS Doctoral Student

THE DAY THAT DEMOCRACY DIED On Friday, January 31, 2020 the music died. Perhaps some day it will once again become alive. On January 31, 2020, the United States Senate voted to disallow witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald J. Trump. As the final vote was cast, the music died. As Don McLean so prophetically stated in his famous song, American Pie, “But something touched me deep inside, the day the music died”. What touched me, and I suspect most Americans, was the actual lyrics of the music. On that fateful day in history, January 31, the music had lyrics of just one word – democracy. You see, on that day democracy died. The United States Senate is complicit in the murder of our democracy. Perhaps Don McLean’s lyrics, “A long time ago, I can still remember how that music made me smile” was a bit of prophecy from so long ago. He was clearly relating a defining moment in American experience – something had been lost forever and we knew it. Looking back at McLean’s 1971 lyrics, he seemed to be talking about the perilous position we found ourselves in. In our case today, the foundation of the country, we the people, began to crumble the day the music died. Our democracy, so long endured, has been assaulted by 51 US Senators who decided to put party first over country. 51 US Senators were a lynch mob just waiting to do away with the rule of law; do away with a founding tenet of our once cherished democracy. American Pie. What does it all mean? Just what a song about the day the music died seems like it means – the end of the American Dream. Perhaps some day the music will again become alive.

stuff going on, but I don’t know whether there’s enough credit given to that when you compare it to the main student body. I think the student-athletes are really contributing on campus. (Editor’s note: Student-athletes did break the cumulative GPA mark during the fall semester, recording a 3.37 GPA that bested the previous record of 3.32 set in the spring of 2017.) DL: Can you talk a little bit about what the season looks like and some of the positives you took away from the first four matches? We play 22 matches on the year. We test our guys with a strong non-conference schedule. Our last seven games of the year will be against conference oppo-

nents, so that’s when we get into the conference regular season. We try and play nationally and regionally ranked opponents. I’d say our strength of schedule is one of the highest in the Mountain West. So far we’ve played Tennessee, Louisville (receiving votes in the top 25), Middle Tennessee State and Gonzaga, who were actually ranked 75th while we started the year ranked 68th. We play BYU in our home opener on Feb. 8 at 11 a.m., and we’re pretty excited about that match because I think that gives us a huge opportunity to play against a regionally ranked opponent. I think we’re going to get better from our match against Gonzaga, and I think we can definitely start off with a bang at home.

DL: Tell us more about the home opener. BD: There’ll be free coffee and bagels, so that’s pretty cool (sharp intake of breath from the interviewer). If students want to come down on a Saturday morning and get some free coffee and some free bagels, then they’re more than welcome to join us. I think there were a couple of matches last year where we were reaching somewhere in the region of 150 fans, so the atmosphere can get pretty cool. If the main student body would like to join us too, we would love to have them as a part of, obviously, supporting our program.

PHOTO STORY

Electric Playhouse celebrates grand opening By Emille Domschot @erdomschot The Electric Playhouse, an innovative new space bringing together art and community in Albuquerque’s West side, launched its grand opening on Saturday, Feb. 1. Among the sizable group gathered in front of the doors for the ribbon cutting were representatives from the Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce, the Hispano Chamber of Commerce and the ABQ West Chamber of Commerce. Mayor Tim Keller and his family were also in attendance. As the doors were opened, the whole crowd pressed forward to explore the space. John Feins, the Electric Playhouse marketing director, said that the idea was to bring people together in an era where technology has caused isolation. The main area of the building is organized into stations and little rooms with immersive activities based on projection mapping technology, which allows users to interact with the projected images. The space has room for a DJ and a small restaurant and bar. In the lobby, there is another eating area, as well as a place for immersive dining experiences. According to CEO John Mark Collins, an Albuquerque-based entrepreneur with a background in computer engineering and digital art, hosting these dinners was the starting point behind the vision for Electric Playhouse. By bringing together culinary and visual arts with interactive technology, the immersive dinners became a unique social and art experience, much like the Electric Playhouse is designed to be on a larger scale. In addition to being regularly open to the public, Collins intends for the facility to be used as a venue for parties and events. Currently, the Playhouse is run by a team of about 50 people, according to Feins. He said that he hopes the venture will inspire outside interest and that similar start-ups will appear in other cities under a franchise model. Emille Domschot is a freelance photographer at the Daily Lobo. She can be reached at news@dailylobo. com or on Twitter @erdomschot
