Student Fee Review Board opts not to reduce fees Asian Pacific American Culture Center established

By Spencer Butler Lissa Knudsen & Jesus Mata @SpencerButler48 @lissaknudsen @JesusMataJr99 The University of New Mexico’s Student Fee Review Board (SFRB) voted to hold fees steady for fall 2021, despite calls for reductions amidst the coronavirus pandemic. On Oct. 25, the SFRB — after more than 10 hours of deliberations — approved the fall 2021 student activity fee recommendations on a unanimous 7-0 vote. Student activity fees are charged alongside tuition to all students registered on main campus and at the Health Sciences Center. These fees are assessed per capita — as enrollment increases, the total budget expands, giving the board more money to recommend for allocation. Student activity fees do not include the student government fee, which is a fixed dollar amount approved separately by the Board of Regents for the undergraduate and graduate student government, nor the facility/information technology debt service fee.

This year, total enrollment dropped slightly (down 2.4%, or 548 students) but there was a considerable increase in graduate students (19.3%), and SFRB funds available exceeded requests. On the second day of deliberations, the SFRB discussed lowering student activity fees from 1.5% to 1% but ultimately decided to not lower them, billing the decision as a way to ensure that their reserves remain high. The decision was made despite calls from students for relief based on the financial strain imposed by the pandemic. Especially notable among this year’s appropriations was the establishment of a new Asian Pacific American Culture Center (APACC). Though they did not receive the full $171,679.50 they requested, the SFRB did recommend they receive $72,650 to get the cultural center established. According to the APACC application, the funds were designed to support a professional staff person, student support staff and operating costs. The mission of the center would be to create community and foster success in students of APIDA (Asian, Pacific Islander and Desi American) heritage. In addition to the APACC not receiving all of the funding they

Harris’ VP candidacy carries torch for Albuquerque Asian community By Gabriel Biadora & Lissa Knudsen @gabrielbiadora @lissaknudsen Senator Kamala Harris was selected as the running mate for presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden on Aug. 11, after months of speculation between potential nominees. Following the announcement, the Daily Lobo met virtually with a number of local Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community members to talk about Harris’ cultural heritage and the connections her Indian ethnicity creates within and across the local AAPI community. Harris was born to Shyamala Gopalan and Donald Harris on Oct. 20, 1964 in Oakland, California. Her parents immigrated to the U.S. from India and Jamaica respectively in the early 1960s, a decade defined by the civil rights movement, according to the Los Angeles Times. Harris’ mother raised her two

daughters with a “sense of pride” in regard to their Black heritage, but “never to the exclusion of always also being very proud and active in terms of our Indian culture as well,” Harris said in the Times’ podcast “Asian Enough.” Now, with Harris shouldered in the presidential race amongst a lineup of white men, some voters are looking to her candidacy as a symbolic step toward fair representation and diversity in a government which has systematically oppressed and discriminated against the AAPI community. Every person the Daily Lobo interviewed confirmed that Harris’ identity as an Indian American woman was historic and long awaited. “I love the ticket because she is a woman, and I have been waiting for a woman on the ticket,” Naina Ballachanda, a certified public accountant, moderate Republican and practicing Hindu, said. For Sarita Nair, the first female chief administrative officer of the City of Albuquerque — who has

requested, ENLACE, the ASPIRE program, Student Publications and Athletics were also funded at a rate lower than they had applied for. ENLACE — a program that provides tutoring and mentorship for low income high school students — was the only program the SFRB recommended less funding than what they received last year. ENLACE was reduced by $6,100 from last year’s funding down to $30,000. The program had applied for a $30,000 increase this year. For the second year in a row, the ASPIRE (Center for the Advancement of Spatial Informatics Research and Education) program approached the board for $212,676 in first-time funding to establish a research center focused on promoting Geographic Information Science. The funding was to go to equipment, as well as to staff and graduate assistant salaries. The board rejected ASPIRE’s request for recurring funding but recommended an appropriation of $27,860 in one-time funding. ASUNM President Mia Amin and board members Sall Ahmadian and Victoria Peña-Parr spoke in favor of the cut. “We can’t just give money blindly to people,” Peña-Parr said. After considerable debate, Stu-

dent Publications — the organization that funds the Daily Lobo, Limina and Conceptions Southwest — was also whittled down, receiving $20,000 less than they requested but more than $51,500 than they received last year. Many board members expressed concerns about the large multiyear deficit Student Publications

have rolled over for several years. “If the Daily Lobo were a business, it would’ve shut down years ago,” board member Ricardo Hill said early on in the deliberations. Other, much larger appropriations from the SFRB, such as $2.24 million for the Student Union

UNM students divided over election By Megan Gleason @fabflutist2716 As the 2020 presidential election inches closer, the staunch political views of students amongst a hyperpoliticized electorate have sparked tensions at the University of New Mexico. From Democrats to Repub-

licans to every party in between and on the outside, UNM students are voicing their concerns about the upcoming election. Many individuals have said neither major party candidate — President Donald Trump or former Vice President Joe Biden — is their ideal choice. However, many have settled into voting for one of the two.

Liberty Stalnaker / Daily Lobo / @DailyLobo

President of UNM Student Democrats Noah Dowling-Lujan (left) and UNM student and Republican Daniel Klause (right).

Daniel Klause, a senior political science major, said Trump has his vote in November. “I identify as a Republican (because) I believe in the strong values of personal responsibility. The whole idea of limited government — not (zero) government but limited government — (is) that people are responsible for their personal actions, and the less the government’s involved in (our) personal lives, the better,” Klause said. UNM alumni Colan Mackenzie said he will be voting for Biden next month. Mackenzie graduated with a double major in history and political science in 2018. “Should Biden be elected, some of the more egregious acts our current government (is) carrying out could be stopped,” Mackenzie told the Daily Lobo in a private message on Twitter. However, Mackenzie voiced his preference for Vermont Senator and former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, as have other leftleaning individuals and groups. “Essentially, it boils down to harm reduction rather than actually being motivated to vote for a Biden/Harris ticket, because I dislike both of them quite a bit,” Mackenzie wrote.

objecting to the further allocation of funds. In particular, Hill stated that if any additional funding was given to groups, with the fact that some programs didn’t get their full amounts, that it could be seen as the SFRB beginning to “assume which group needs more help than others.” Thus, the board agreed to not recommend any additional funding to any of the programs, with the money that was left over reverting back to the SFRB’s reserves. One area of contention came with Athletics’ request for nearly $3.6 million, which the board

agreed to adjust down $100,000 to $3.47 million. Hill, Peña-Parr and Emma Hotz said they were concerned that the verbiage contained within Athletics’ proposal wasn’t specific enough. Thus, they recommended a change to how SFRB budget proposals are submitted in the future, with any line item above $30,000 needing to be clarified in detail. The board asserted that if next year’s proposals don’t include the necessary information, they would be automatically cut. Peña-Parr, Hotz and GPSA

President Nikhil Reddy expressed concerns about the Athletics budget, but the board ultimately agreed to proceed to a final vote without revisiting the allocation. Some board members said that it wouldn’t be fair to return to the Athletics budget given that they had over a month to ask the department questions about how the funds would be used. The new SFRB recommendations will be presented to the Budget Leadership Team on Nov. 19, where that committee will either make changes or approve of the SFRB’s new budget before

submitting it to the Board of Regents for approval.

Of course, while one elected official of color won’t singlehandedly erase xenophobia in the U.S., Harris’ election would evidence the nation’s progression towards diversity, according to Ballanchanda. “She is one step (closer to) what’s coming ... I used to listen to Rush Limbaugh, and you know — in his own way — he would talk about the ‘browning of America,’ and I think that is so true. It’s a reality, and one that cannot be ignored,” Ballachanda said. Some have questioned Harris’ ethnic makeup on social media, interrogating whether or not she is Black or Indian. According to Sahana Ummadi, a member of the South Asian board for UNM’s newly established Asian Pacific American Culture Center, Americans have a reductionist view of identity, as is the case with Harris. “I think (for) a lot of people, once

you say you’re ‘American’ all the other things that define you aren’t relevant,” Ummadi said. According to Ummadi, Harris’ ethnicity has come under scrutiny because she disrupted the white status quo in politics. “I think (Harris’ ethnicity) is more focused on because usually politics are dominated by the ‘white-malepowerhouse’ thing,” Ummadi said. “So a woman, and also a woman of color, (possibly being) in that high of a position gives hope to a lot of people who feel like they haven’t been as represented in the past.” According to Sonja Larson, a Black and Pacific Islander woman who is affiliated with Young Women United and the New Mexico Asian Family Center, these “xenophobic” and “anti-Black” interrogative questions were meant to actively discount Harris’ credibility as a politician. Furthermore, there have also been aims

to divide her biraciality, namely with the erasure of her Indian heritage over her Black heritage. “It’s a battle of trying to find the right medium, and then people are always going to come at you for not embracing one side enough or choosing to embrace one side more than the other, and that can lead to a whole bunch of other identity issues,” Larson said. But as history can attest, the fight for racial and social equity in the United States has been a joint struggle by communities of color. Indeed, Harris’ parents met as students in solidarity with the civil rights movement, which led to the creation of the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act — an overturning of an isolationist quota that cascaded into the exponentiation of the immigrant population in America. Though everyone the Daily Lobo

interviewed expressed pride in having an Indian American woman on the Democratic presidential ticket, that didn’t mean that they all identified with her political positions. “It’s nice to see a woman of color who could potentially be the vice president of the United States, but then it’s also thinking of ‘where do my viewpoints and her viewpoints match up and where we disagree and what’s more important to me,’” Larson said.

come out of the Trump administration — the amount of crime that’s happened,” Dowling-Lujan said. Dowling-Lujan voted for Elizabeth Warren in the primaries but said Biden is still doing well, especially considering that he is coordinating with both Warren and Sanders in his campaign. “If you have ever (valued) just basic decency, you shouldn’t vote for Donald Trump,” Dowling-Lujan said. According to Dowling-Lujan, a majority of UNM students are progressive, and he isn’t surprised that so many wanted to vote for Sanders before his primary loss to Biden. “Above all, they put weight into progressive policies, so that’s why I think a lot of college students are wary about Joe Biden just because they’re more interested in progressive policy than they are in some attachment to ‘vote blue no matter

who,’” Dowling-Lujan said. Klause said Trump isn’t a perfect candidate, but there were “a lot of the uncertainties surrounding 2016 of whether he was actually going to go through with some of the promises on the campaign (and) he has, so I think it’s easier to vote for him this time knowing that what he says he’ll he probably do, as far as Congress and just politics in general allow.” For example, Klause said Trump has followed through on getting jobs back to the United States as well as delivering on foreign affairs, such as being aggressive with trade and military policy with respect to the Chinese and Iranian governments. “I am alarmed by some of the people who seem pretty against America and (the) fundamental values that it stands for. While I don’t deny that we have an imper-

fect past, I do think that we have a lot to fight for, and I think the president is on board with that,” Klause said. In contrast, Dowlin-Lujan said Biden’s stances on affordable education and health care are a significant reason he should have people’s support. A Twitter poll asking which major party candidate individuals plan on voting for highlighted political tensions over the upcoming election, evoking impassioned arguments in the comments. Dowling-Lujan said the dominant politics on campus affect how political discussions play out, especially since UNM is a predominantly white campus in both the student body and administration. “I think that really impacts the ability that we have to talk about the issues, because we’re

coming to the table with different understandings of campus life and life outside of school,” Dowling-Lujan said. Addressing personal relationships, it’s becoming difficult to separate politics with friends and family, according to Dowling-Lujan. “We are more and more partisan than we ever have been,” Dowling-Lujan said. “While I obviously think it’s possible to be friends with different political views, I think that especially now as people associate politics with their own morality that it’s a lot harder to separate that from the individual.”

seen an “incredible expansion” of Indian American representation in her lifetime — Harris’ placement on the ticket evidences a significant step towards “recognizing our humanity and that (Indian Americans) are a part of this country and should be represented at the highest levels of government.” Following the coronavirus’ spread from China to the United States, the nation has seen an increase in xenophobic and racist attacks against Asian Americans. Earlier this year, the restaurant India Palace in Santa Fe, a hub for the Asian community, was subject to a hate crime as racist vandals laid waste to the cornerstone establishment. In addition, in March at the University of New Mexico, Chinese student Shuyuan Ye was subject to a racist prank which targeted his status as an international student from China.

Additionally, the Student Government Accounting Office and LGBTQ Resource Center were added to a list to add an increase of one-time funding for the next fiscal year. Toward the end of deliberations, the board discussed whether or not they should go back and reconsider adding additional funds from the reserves to some programs. However, a number of members opposed the idea, with Hill, Ahmadian, Peña-Parr and Amin

This contrasts with the views of many Republicans, who sit on the opposite side of the political spectrum from the independent, Democratic-leaning Sanders. “I think it’s a sad day in America when someone who classifies himself as a socialist — and I understand he calls himself a Democratic socialist, but a socialist nonetheless — is on the top of a ticket for one of the major parties of the United States, if not the largest,” Klause said. Noah Dowling-Lujan, president of the campus organization UNM Democrats, said he will definitely be voting for Biden in the election, calling Biden a “serviceable compromise.” “Almost any other candidate would be doing a better job than (Trump) is right now. It’s just unbelievable the amount of sexism, racism and discrimination that has

UNM graduate Joel-Peter Witkin reflects on controversial photography career Photographer and UNM graduate Joel-Peter Witkin laughs while telling a story by his piece “Venus of Five Points, New Mexico” (2019).

By Liberty Stalnaker @DailyLobo Joel-Peter Witkin is a University of New Mexico graduate with a prolific profession as a photographer of taboo subjects. Witkin is known primarily for his ornately composed photographs of subjects ranging from socially outcast figures to deceased persons or body parts. One of Witkin’s most well-known pieces is “Le Baiser,” an image of a severed and halved head whose pieces have been faced toward one another in an apparent kiss. Such subject matter has led Witkin to face his fair share of critical lambasting, with a 1993 article in the New York Times claiming his “prettified and pretentious images do little to illuminate the issues of life and death they raise.” A later profile in the Seattle Times noted his work had been deemed “the snuff film of the art world.” Despite the criticism, Witkin rejects the notion that his work is overly morbid.

“I don’t think it’s macabre, I think it’s the way my vision is — and it may seem macabre to people, or to have a dark factor, but it’s the way I perceive reality. I think it’s positive,” Witkin said. Witkin described how his interest in photography started at a young age. At 16, he received a camera from his father and began shooting. In 1961, a 22-year-old Witkin enlisted in the Army, where he served for three years as a photographer. Following this stint, Witkin studied sculpture and poetry, receiving a bachelor of fine arts from Cooper Union in New York City, where Witkin originally hails. A recipient of the G.I. Bill, a fund that assists qualifying veterans with college and training costs, Witkin continued his graduate studies in photography at UNM, where he took inspiration from fellow local photographers Van Deren Coke, Wayne Rod Lazorik, Anne Noggle and Betty Hahn. Witkin previously visited New Mexico as an army specialist stationed in Texas and said he felt something special and inexplicable in the state.

“I knew I had to be here. (There were) many, many factors,” Witkin said. “It was something I felt was in the history of my life ... I had to be here.” Cynthia Bency-Witkin, Witkin’s wife, met him in 1976 as a fellow UNM student. Raised in Española, Bency-Witkin said she initially disliked New Mexico as well as UNM, which was the only local school her family could afford to send her to at the time. “When I was young, I wanted nothing more than to leave. I felt like the big world was out there, and I just wanted to explore,” BencyWitkin said. However, as Witkin’s photography continued to gain traction, the couple quickly realized they could do all of the photographic work necessary by staying local, and thus opted out of moving to larger cities like New York or San Francisco. “The quality of life is fantastic. At the time, it felt like Albuquerque was the center of the world,” Bency-Witkin said. “I think our quality of life really flourished because we were able to live in New Mexico — to be able to have the land, the space.”

Liberty Stalnaker / Daily Lobo / @DailyLobo

The couple attribute both New Mexico and UNM to Witkin’s ability to work so freely. “Sara Raynolds was where the darkrooms were, and Joel used that darkroom like crazy, night and day,” Bency-Witkin said. “So finally, they were going to renovate Sara Raynolds, and they were saying ‘You have to leave, Joel, you have to leave.’ He’d already gotten his MFA, but he held on (to the University) until the very end.” Referring to works such as “Art Deco Lamp” and “Abundance,” both of which showcase people with physical disabilities in striking and elaborate compositions, Bency-Witkin talked about her husband’s displays of people that are so often maligned or outcast. “We all hope that we’re a unique person, that we have something to offer. If you’re really not the norm in society, then it’s harder. For the first time, many of these people were asked to be who they really were,” Bency-Witkin said. “A lot of these people became our friends.” Though Witkin’s love of art and expression is still clearly visible, Witkin said he isn’t currently ac-

tive in his work, having made his last print in late 2019. “I’m retired. The work is very well-organized — I put my forty, fifty years in. Basically, I don’t have the energy to do it,” Witkin said in reference to the oft-laborious process of composing photographs and making large prints. “I’ve had it. I don’t have that energy ... The best years of my life I put in.” Witkin said his worldview on taboo and graphic material has never changed, even though modern artistic perceptions deem it more socially acceptable now. “I’ve never accommodated anything. That was my vision, that’s how I saw the world, that’s what I did. And that’s the way it should be — art comes from the soul, the spirit, and it doesnt come from anywhere else,” Witkin said. “It can’t be adaptive. It was shocking to a lot of people, but I can’t help that.” Liberty Stalnaker is a freelance reporter at the Daily Lobo. She can be contacted at culture@dailylobo.com or on Twitter @DailyLobo

UNM administration flouts First Admendment with gag order on Daily Lobo reporter

Opinion Editor / opinion@dailylobo.com

Let it be known that there is no doubt that Daily Lobo data editor Joe Rull could quite easily “break the ankles” of any student government representative, for Rull is an absolute beast in the post, his footwork is immaculate and he knows every move in the book. In addition to reaffirming our data editor’s skills on the court, we must also make clear that when the University of New Mexico Dean of Students, Nasha Torrez, violated the First Amendment rights of a member of the student newspaper, she violated the rights of the newspaper as a whole. On Oct. 28, Torrez issued “No Contact Directives” both to Rull and former ASUNM Senator and biochemistry student Selina Montoya regarding Student Fee Review Board member Sall Ahmadian. This order prohibits Rull from not only contacting Ahmadian, but from reporting on Ahmadian — including on social media as well as print and online publications — for two years. “Communication between Sall Ahmadian and Joseph Rull Mioduszewski is prohibited in any form including but not limited to: in person; in writing; via gesture; over the phone; online; through text message; through email; on social media or networking sites; through a third party; or to a third party with intent to harass, harm, humiliate or otherwise portray negatively the other party,” the directive stated. In order to fully understand the circumstances that led to this egregious miscalculation in judgment on the part of the University, allow us to provide the backstory. In July, Rull reported on ASUNM President Mia Amin’s refusal to sign a Black Lives Matter resolution that the undergraduate student government passed on a 13-5-2 vote — a story that Amin hasn’t forgotten. Fast forward to Oct. 24-25, when the Student Fee Review Board convened to deliberate the merits of the programs that had applied for 202122 student activity fee funding.

During these deliberations, English and political science major Ahmadian — Amin’s SFRB appointee — made a series of ill-informed statements about Student Publications’ funding request. On the morning of Oct. 24, Daily Lobo sports-turned-government reporter Jesus Mata live-tweeted the following quotes as part of his assignment to cover the public deliberation. “I’m concerned that some students might be gaming the system and not taking a staff role or a stipend role,” Mata reported SFRB undergraduate member Ahmadian as saying. “Then just doing it by article and pumping out articles.” This is a ridiculous assertion, as it often takes days for a student reporter to complete an assignment, and the final product is compensated at a meager $16-$20 an article. The few remaining staff and “stipend” roles are better compensated but aren’t tied to any specific deliverables, evidencing Ahmadian’s ignorance on the subject. Ahmadian’s next move was to recommend that the board “put a cap on maybe, five articles a semester per student ... Whatever you guys think (is) a number that is more appropriate. I don’t know how many articles these people pump out.” When a member of the government asserts putting a “cap” on the number of stories a reporter writes, they are not only being illogical — like capping the number of baskets a star basketball player is allowed to make in a game — they are proposing an infringement on the constitutionally protected freedom of the press. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances” the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States reads with admirable clarity. Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart, who served from 1958 to 1981, argued “that the First

Amendment speaks separately of freedom of speech and freedom of the press is no constitutional accident, but an acknowledgment of the critical role played by the press in American society.” In response to Ahmadian’s public comments, staff writers and alumni of the Daily Lobo and members of the community responded on social media with pointed commentary. One of the responses to Ahmadian’s statements came from Rull, who challenged Ahmadian to a basketball game in response to his assertion that Lobo reporters were “gaming the system” by writing multiple news stories. The tweet read: “SALL AHMADIAN PLAY ME 1 ON 1 GAME TO 21 I WANT TO PERSONALLY BREAK YOUR ANKLES.” In addition, Montoya tweeted, “Sall Ahmadian is a peepee poopoo head pass it on,” and went on to say “this type of rhetoric not only comes off as ignorant but is such a slap in the face for Daily Lobo reporters who pour their heart and soul into stories they barely get a dime for.” A few people watching the unfolding drama took to notifying New Mexico Sen. Martin Heinrich that one of his interns (Ahmadian) was publicly attempting to use his power as a SFRB member to propose a limit on the freedom of the press. When the SFRB reconvened after their lunch break later that day, Ahmadian told the Zoom attendees — including the Daily Lobo reporter on the call — that he was aware that his comments were “trending on Twitter” and issued a public rebuke directed toward anyone, but specifically those affiliated with the Daily Lobo, who had contacted Sen. Heinrich. After the day’s deliberations, Ahmadian and Amin remained on the Zoom call, and Ahmadian joked about how he would “need a press team” after his earlier comments were amplified on Twitter. On Oct. 25, the SFRB reconvened for their final day of deliberations and ultimately decided to fund Stu-

Through this board, the students’ representatives voice concerns and make adjustments to the use of the community’s student fees. The goal of the SFRB is to enhance UNM’s academic and intellectual environment by supporting student activities and organizations.

Albuquerque murals reinforce value of voting By Lauren McDonald @old_mcdonald25 Voting-themed art has been popping up around Albuquerque from local artists that want to remind New Mexico residents of the importance of voting in the general election. Murals and small paintings on buildings cover the avenues of downtown Albuquerque and Nob Hill, as well as some spots near Los Ranchos de Albuquerque. Artist Felicia Montoya, along with her husband Markus Wall and their daughter Eva and artist Kema, recently painted a mural on Fourth Street. The mural is colorful, with a Black Lives Matter portion and a voter registration box that sits next to large letters on the mural that read “vote.” “I had the idea of painting the mural while watching the Democratic convention. We painted the ‘vote’ mural on Sept. 12,” Montoya said. “I registered to become a voter registration agent so that I could register people to vote.” Different murals around Albu-

querque all have various themes such as voting, fracking, Black Lives Matter and social and political justice. “I love that there’s art around Albuquerque showing how essential it is that everyone votes,” local resident Jenn Kennedy said. Specific art includes a large banner that reads “Vote New Mexico” on Central Avenue nearby the Guild Cinema in Nob Hill. “The reality is that if everyone went out and voted, our elected officials would represent the values within any city, any jurisdiction,” Wall said. “It’s all just about getting out there and voting, then you’re represented the way you should be.” Further up Central, around the Nob Hill area, is a mural of former Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg by Nazario Sandoval, a fracking debate mural by Larry Bob Phillips and a COVID-19 first responders mural by Skinjun, Munki and Home Grown NM Trading Post. “This year’s election is just so important,” Kennedy said. “Everyone really has to go out and vote, especially the younger generation. And it’s incredible that there are art murals

around where students live to remind them to go out and vote.” Another large, colorful mural encouraging people to vote by Claire Bain and Gary Sena hangs above Slice Parlor. “I created a little flyer about important dates to remember about the election,” Montoya said. “These items live in the box that’s a part of the mural.” Montoya highlighted the opportunity artists have to make a statement in a highly polarized political environment. “We were watching the convention, (and) it’s just a messed up political climate right now. I felt like we had to do something, and we have an opportunity to put this message on one of the main streets,” Montoya said. “This was just our way of doing something. We didn’t want to put any political side, we just wanted to make it like, ‘vote!’ Make your voice heard.” Lauren McDonald is a freelance reporter at the Daily Lobo.

UNM football returns, 38-21 defeat in San Jose extends losing streak By Spencer Butler @SpencerButler48 It’s been 335 days since the University of New Mexico football team last took the field, and a lot has changed since their last game. The most noteworthy change that occurred during the offseason was the departure of former head coach Bob Davie, who was later replaced by Danny Gonzales, a defensive coordinator for Arizona State and former UNM football player. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic initially canceled the 2020-21 Mountain West football season and delayed the start of the Gonzales era. The first game in the Lobo’s truncated season, meant to be played on the road against Colorado State on Oct. 24, was canceled due to the surging coronavirus case count in Bernalillo County. Then, UNM’s home opener was moved from Albuquerque to San Jose. With this change in venue, the season began unexpectedly on the road against San José State, and the Gonzales era began with a thud after the Spartans trounced the Lobos 38-21. The game was a continuation of the Lobos’ losing streak, which is now up to 10 out of conference games and 16 games within the Mountain West. UNM’s last victory was over a year ago in a home game against New Mexico State on Sept. 21.

UNM received the first half kickoff and had a strong start, with an 11 play, 43-yard drive, that gave the Lobos the opportunity for a field goal attempt and an early lead. However, Lobo kicker George Steinkamp missed the field goal wide to the right, which gave San José the ball at their 36-yard line. San José would then go on a 40-yard drive of their own that eventually stalled after UNM defensive end Jake Saltonstall stopped running back Kairee Robinson on a fourth and one play. Despite these good fortunes, UNM couldn’t capitalize on the change in momentum, and after a 5-play drive, the Lobos had to punt the ball back. This would not bode well for the Lobos, as San José marched down the field on a 14-play, 84-yard drive that culminated with Spartans quarterback Nick Starkel throwing a 37-yard touchdown pass to Tre Walker. Down 7-0 to the Spartans, UNM looked to respond but had to punt after only managing another 5-play drive. This gave San José State another chance to add to their lead. The Spartans didn’t waste the opportunity, as they went on another lengthy drive, consisting of 8 plays and spanning 84 yards. The drive came to an end with Starkel throwing another touchdown, this one for 43 yards to Isaiah Hamilton. Down 14-0, UNM would need a shot in the arm to get back into the game.

The shot they were looking for came in the form of a 4-play, 84-yard touchdown drive that only took 59 seconds. Lobo quarterback Tevaka Tuioti hit on a 39-yard touchdown pass to Cedric Patterson III. In less than a minute, UNM cut the deficit in half. San José State immediately responded with a scoring drive of their own. Starkel found Walker in the end zone for the second time in the half to extend the lead to 21-7. The shootout was on, as the Lobos embarked on a 75-yard drive capped off by a Tuioti touchdown pass to Andrew Erickson to make it 21-14 with 2:06 left in the first half. This score would hold into halftime. At the half, UNM still trailed by seven. That would remain the case until 10:55 in the third quarter, when UNM tied the game on a 1-yard Tuioti touchdown run. With the momentum on the Lobos’ side, it seemed as if UNM could end up winning their season opener after all the hoops they had to jump through. But the spark the team captured in the first half quickly fizzled out, and San José State took control of the game. Three of the next four Spartan drives resulted in scores as Starkel continued to light up the Lobo defense, tossing a 69-yard touchdown pass to Bailey Gaither. In contrast, the Lobos went scoreless on their next four possessions.

With the score 38-21 in favor of San José State, the Spartans would run the ball the rest of the way and drop UNM to 0-1 on the young season. While Tuioti threw for 294 yards, the story was once again UNM’s porous defense, which gave up 467 passing yards and 5 passing touchdowns. In the post-game press conference, Gonzales said UNM “looked horrible” and were “not very good,” stating that his players and coaching staff had a “long way to go.” Despite the Lobos’ stumble out of the gate, Gonzales remained optimistic, citing the team’s strong effort on the field. “The offense fought hard, “ Gonzales said. “The good thing is (the

team) didn’t quit.” Gonzales also noted that the Lobos were a little sloppy, especially when it came to the amount of penalties the team allowed. “I thought that the kids were fighting, and fighting hard — I thought that it was a great game for three and a half quarters,” Gonzales said. “There’s no excuses, we should have played better, but we have a long way to go to continue to set the culture that we want.” UNM’s next game is against Hawaii on Saturday, Nov. 7 at 9 p.m. Spencer Butler is a beat reporter at the Daily Lobo.
