By Cameron Goeldner, Kyle Land and Danielle Prokop @Goeldfinger @kyleoftheland @ProkopDani SANTA FE, N.M. — House Democrats introduced a bill Friday to give the University of New Mexico

a recurring appropriation of $2 million to reinstate four sports. Led by House Appropriations and Finance Committee Chair Patricia Lundstrom (D-Gallup), the money would be taken from the state’s general fund to restore the men and women’s ski team, women’s beach volleyball, and men’s soccer. Other sponsors of House Bill

320 (HB 320), all Democrats, are representatives Antonio “Moe” Maestas, Javier Martinez, Sheryl Williams Stapleton and Speaker of the House Brian Egolf. Egolf told the Daily Lobo on election night that the sports cut by UNM would be reinstated, and new Governor

State Legislature to hold UNM Day By Justin Garcia @Just516garc If you’re looking for an excuse to skip class this Monday, head up to the New Mexico State Legislature for UNM Day. There, in Santa Fe, representatives from various entities of the University of New Mexico will be tabling and lobbying at the legislature’s UNM Day. Anyone is welcome to watch the speeches, votes and other goings-on of New Mexico’s highest governing institution. This 60-day session will be especially impactful for UNM and the Lottery Scholarship. For example, House Bill 146 would change the Lottery Scholarship from a merit-based scholarship to a needsbased one. Eligible recipients “family contributions” as calculated in the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) would have to be below 150 percent. Over the last five years, votes regarding the amount of money students receive through the Lottery Scholarship have reduced the scholarship from full coverage to 60 percent. Libertie Green, governmental affairs director for the Associated Students of UNM, said that nobody from the student government will be speaking publicly in front of legislators. She said they will be tabling in the rotunda.

People walk about the New Mexico Roundhouse in Santa Fe during UNM Day.

Another bill of interest to UNM students is House Bill 320, a $2 million appropriation to reinstate men's Soccer, beach volleyball and the men and women’s ski teams. Mired in Title IX compliance issues and Athletics Department scandals, the Board of Regents, the supreme governing body of UNM, voted to cut the sports at the recommendation of Athletics Director Eddie Nuñez and University President Garnett Stokes. On Saturday, the men’s soccer program announced they had accepted the Athletics Department’s invitation for a “meet and greet” at the legislature. They added, “We were surprised that UNM asked us to do this, considering that the University has voted to eliminate out team.”

A major decision is set to be made in this session involving the makeup of the Board of Regents. Five out of the seven seats on the Board of Regents are open. The new members are picked by Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, then approved by a majority of the Senate. One of the those seats — the student regent — is selected from the student body at the recommendation of UNM’s student governments and the University president.

Anthony Mathis reacts after the UNM Lobo Men’s Basketball team loses against Utah State on Sunday, Jan. 26.

By Robert Maler @Robert_Maler The Lobo men's basketball team overcame a sizable halftime deficit and even took a late lead — appearing to be in line for an improbable come-from-behind victory, before a series of unfortunate events erased all of that. New Mexico (9-11, 3-5 MW) fell behind early — something Lobo fans have probably grown accustomed to by now — trailing 22-8 to Utah State a little more than halfway through the first half. There wasn't a lot to be cheerful about outside of a 9-0 run that encompassed back-to-backto-back 3-pointers — one from point guard Keith McGee and a pair of triples from sophomore Makuach Maluach. That spurt and eight free throws accounted for all but 10 of New Mexico's 27 first half points. Senior guard Anthony Mathis was held scoreless, the team shot just 27.6 percent and UNM was probably fortunate to be trailing by just nine points at the half. But something happened after halftime and UNM looked like a completely different team. Head coach Paul Weir said the team spoke at halftime about playing basketball the right way — something that didn't happen in the first half. Despite what he described as looking young and not playing fundamentally sound in the opening frame, the team. And for at least 20 minutes, the team exhibited the heart, grit and and passion that Lobo fans have been clamoring for all year. UNM big man Carlton Bragg poured in a turnaround jumper to open the scoring in the second half, but Utah State's Sam Merrill drilled a 3-pointer to push the lead back to

10 points — something he and his teammates did on five more occasions over the first seven minutes or so of the second half, denying the Lobos opportunities to mount a comeback. New Mexico had played much better in the second half up to that point, but still found itself trailing 50-40 with 12:51 to play after Merrill knocked down yet another 3-pointer. It could have been easy for the UNM players to feel like maybe it just wasn't their day, pack it in and give up. They didn't. New Mexico made back-to-back layups and got a huge boost when sophomore Vladimir Pinchuk drew a charge on Utah State's Neemias Queta — his fourth personal foul, which relegated the talented big to the Aggie bench. The Lobos took advantage and Anthony Mathis found his shot and dropped in a deep 3-pointer, followed by a pair of Bragg free throws to cap a 9-0 run that pulled the team within 50-49 with 9:07 to play. Utah State tried to reestablish control as Merrill struck back with a jumper to go back up by three. And teammate Brock Miller answered another long-range bomb by Mathis that tied the game with a 3-pointer of his own. Miller made another shot to give his Aggies a 59-56 lead with 6:53 remaining, but Lobos applied the defensive clamps and allowed just two more Utah State field goals the rest of the way. New Mexico's Vance Jackson tied the game on the next possession with a shot from beyond the arc and took a 62-61 lead a minute later — it's first since the score was 2-0 — after Mathis uncorked his fourth made 3-pointer of the half. After Utah State connected from long range, Mathis drove to the

Michelle Lujan Grisham also campaigned on a promise to bring the programs back. “UNM has not initiated a request for funding to reinstate any discontinued sports offerings,” Interim Deputy Chief of Staff Cinnamon Blair said. “We will examine this bill carefully and will provide information for the fiscal impact report." The bill includes requirements for the Board of Regents to report information about the Athletic Department to the Legislative Finance Committee, such as the amounts paid out to coaches and administrators, in addition to giving the Committee the ability to conduct performance evaluations on all of the information listed above, as well as contracts entered by the University. Martinez said these guidelines are in place to prevent future malfeasances by the Athletics Department. “The UNM Athletics Department has had a history of lack of transparency,” Martinez said. “This proposal will allow us to keep closer tabs on what’s

happening in that department.” Lundstrom said the figure was determined by a joint effort of Legislative Finance Committee staff and UNM staff to determine operating costs. “It does not, in any way, cover all costs. I don’t think it’s appropriate for us to be doing any kind of bailout,” Lundstrom said. She said UNM has a responsibility to present strategies for expanding revenue, such as ticket sales. “As a state legislator we have a responsibility to look into things when the public is concerned,” Lundstrom said, referencing the public outcry at meetings when sports cuts were discussed. At a regents meeting in August — which was a do-over of the first meeting in July — Lundstrom asked UNM to reconsider the decision, and her microphone was cut off after the regents enforced a three-minute public speaking limit. Lundstrom said the $2 million is recurring because it will be added as a line item in the general appropriations bill, which causes them to be applied every year, even though

the language in the bill does not go over that process. At the time, she had said the legislature had three proposals to save the programs, however a member of the University budget team, Nicole Dopson, said none of the plans could comply with Title IX or address deficit spending. Title IX is a federal provision that “protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive Federal financial assistance.” Before sports were cut, an investigation in summer 2018 was done by Helen Grant Consulting — for $6,000 — that determined the Athletics Department was not compliant with Title IX. This was due to a gender gap in women and men student-athletes, and disparate spending on programs between men’s and women’s sports. One of the suggestions of the report was to cut men’s soccer or baseball. The Daily Lobo asked Lundstrom how this money would address Title IX concerns, and she said reinstating beach volleyball and women’s skiing

The problem — it wasn't a backcourt violation. "I feel like Sean Payton," Weir said in the postgame conference, referencing the New Orleans Saints head coach and his team being victimized by a missed call in the recent NFC Championship game against the Rams. “Unfortunately one play for us, does mean a lot. We don't have a large margin (for) error." The head coach said he didn't want to suggest the officiating or that one call was the reason the Lobos lost the game, but Weir said he did watch the film and determined it was not over-and-back. After the game, the Mountain West released a statement which read, "After postgame video review, the Mountain West has determined the whistle for a backcourt violation in the final minute of the Utah State at New Mexico men’s basketball game was incorrect." The call apparently was not reviewable and it is not possible to say it definitively changed the outcome of the game, but it definitely impacted it. Instead of potentially forcing Utah State to foul the Lobos and put them on the line, the Aggies instead had the ball with a

chance to tie or take the lead. New Mexico seemed to focus on taking away Utah State's 3-point scoring options, forcing the Aggies to make someone other than Merrill or Miller take a shot. Unfortunately for the Lobos, Utah State still got a good look at a 3-point shot after the defense collapsed on Merrill and made him give up the ball. Sophomore guard Abel Porter stepped into his shot and fired a nothing-but-net triple to put his team back on top 68-66. It was only the second made field goal for Utah State since the 6:53 mark — both by Porter (who finished with six points) — but, with just 1.6 seconds remaining, it was enough to suck the air out of The Pit. A final heave from Mathis at the buzzer was no good and Utah State ended up escaping with a win that looked almost certain just 20 minutes earlier. The win improved Utah State's record to 15-5 overall and 5-2 in Mountain West play and into a second-place tie in the standings, while New Mexico fell to ninth place. New Mexico will get a bye before heading out on the road to face Fresno State, which is also tied for

would help with Title IX, but more discussion would be needed. Both Egolf and Martinez responded that bringing back beach volleyball would help with issues related to Title IX, despite the fact that UNM Athletics faced Title IX issues before any sports were cut. 10 of the past 12 Athletics' budgets have operated in deficit, accruing a debt of $4.3 million. Year after year, the budgets were approved by both the Board of Regents, and VP of Administrative Affairs and CFO, David Harris. UNM asked for $4.1 million in their appropriations request from the state, with that money intended to prevent future cuts and help the University pay for more full-time athletic trainers, increase the travel budget and improved student welfare. That total is $1.5 million more than the $2.6 million the department received from the state during the last legislative session. However, when asked about how this increase would relate to the $2 million appropriation, Lundstrom said she hasn’t been

consulted by UNM regarding their budget. “They haven’t asked for anything yet,” Lundstrom said. “What they’ve done is they’ve had that in the press, but that has not come to me.” The bill is currently in the Appropriations and Finance Committee, where it will be voted on to determine if it will move before the full House. There will be a hearing before House Appropriations and Finance committee on Feb. 9. Men's soccer coach Jeremy Fishbein, who has been the face of the effort to save his sport and the others, reacted to the news on Twitter on Friday night. “The State of New Mexico loves and supports Lobo Soccer.....WE LOVE NEW MEXICO and love impacting the youth of our State,” he said. “Looks like we have the money to REINSTATE LOBO SOCCER. LETS DO IT!” Reporters can be contacted at news@dailylobo.com.

basket and tied things up with a layup to give him 16 points — all in the second half — and tie the score at 64-64 with 4:00 on the clock. Jackson put the Lobos back on top with a made jumper about a minute later and UNM had an opportunity to add to the lead with 1:39 left after Bragg snagged a loose ball and was fouled. At that same time, officials noticed Mathis bleeding from what appeared to be his lip and halted play. After a review, referees apparently did not find anything malicious that precipitated the injury and play resumed with Bragg at the foul line. That's when the first act in the series of unfortunate events unfolded. Bragg missed the front end of the "one-and-one" free throw attempt and Utah State inched a little closer after Taylor Quinn split his free throw attempts at the other end, making it 66-65 in favor of the Lobos. New Mexico missed a layup on its next possession, but got an important stop before being dealt a second unfortunate event with 31.9 seconds left when Anthony Mathis was whistled for a backcourt violation.

ASUNM President prepares for busy semester By Justin Garcia @Just516garc Emerging Lobo Leaders, Board and Committees Coordinator, senator, chairwoman and now president. Becka Myers has seen the many facets and functions of the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico from many different sides. Now, as ASUNM President in her final semester at UNM, Myers has the opportunity to affect the future of the University in ways that few other in her position have had. The supreme governing body of UNM, the Board of Regents, sits with five empty seats awaiting Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham’s appointments. On Wednesday, Myers and her Director of Governmental Affairs, Libertie Green, were dashing around the Roundhouse, from a House Education Committee meeting to the viewing gallery of the House of Representatives. “We’re seeking out who to talk to (about) capital outlay, who's going to give us the capital outlay, chasing down people that have written legislation concerning either the lottery or concerning different aspects that have peaked our interests,” Myers said. At the start of her presidency Myers and current Vice President Emily Wilks ran unopposed,

a unique challenge came before her. At the recommendation of Athletics Director Eddie Nuñez and President Garnett Stokes, the Board of Regents voted to cut four sports from the Athletics Department budget, as reported in The Daily Lobo. Mired in Title IX compliance issues and Athletics Department scandals, the Board of Regents voted to cut the sports, to the dismay of many in the UNM community. Myers said she felt like student representatives — including her — were sidelined during that discussion. This was evident when Myers declined to speak after Regent Thomas Clifford called the UNM Faculty Senate “cowardly.” He also said there is an underrepresentation of men at UNM. Later, Myers told the Lobo, “I think, and I will say this loudly, the Regents are in a position of power and we are just there to advise them,” adding, “for them to try and spin it in a public forum to where it’s on someone else and not them is exactly the issue that we’ve had with them in the past.” Now the issue has cooled off some and Myers said what’s important for UNM is a balanced budget, adding that the way sports were cut was unfair. Another major role of the ASUNM President is co-chairing the Student

President of the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico Becka Myers addresses the Senate.

Fee Review Board (SFRB) with the Graduates and Professional Students Alliance (GPSA), ASUNM’s sister institution for graduate students. In the last few months of the semester, Myers chaired the SFRB. This go around, SFRB had to decide what to do about a $4.5 million difference in the money requested and what was available. “That’s something you can’t really prepare for,” Myers said. “You just gotta ride it, do your best and be as clear as possible with every-

one requesting.” The SFRB recommended cuts across the board. The final decision is made by the Board of Regents. “We didn’t cut things because we didn’t think it was necessary, we cut things because we had to — which is why it was cuts across the board,” Myers said. For now, it’s unclear what will happen to the SFRB’s recommendation to rely more on the Instruction and General Funding (I&G) funding and less on student fees. Myer’s

however, was pleased with how the dialog went. Myers said her experience discussing and negotiating with administrators has been an empowering one. Justin Garcia is a freelance reporter for the Daily Lobo. He can be contacted by email at news@dailylobo.com or on Twitter @Just516garc.

Opinion Editor / opinion@dailylobo.com

LETTERS UNM Student Family Housing has a cockroach problem Editor, UNM provides many services to students, some better and some worse. As a new graduate student, my family and I relocated back to Albuquerque and moved into Student Family Housing (SFH). The pros: international neighbors, utilities, cable, internet and laundry are included. The cons: limited living space, poor grounds keeping, theft and GERMAN COCKROACHES. That's right, UNM SFH, which houses graduate & postgraduate students,

their partners, children & youth, expose residents to roaches. Every day, my partner, children and I squish, stomp, and smash roaches. How do I feel when my 2-year old says, “cockroach”? It stresses me out. They come out when the lights are off, but even with the lights on, there they are. Can you imagine waking up to a cockroach crawling on you? That happened to my partner. What about cockroaches hiding behind your towel or seeing them squirm on the pizza you just placed on the counter…true story. What about the health implications? Have we gotten sick since we’ve been here? Yes.

We regularly receive pest control through UNM SFH. SFH uses UNM and outside contractors to provide pest control services. Our UNM pest control says they spray only units that request it. That means while my apartment is treated, the unit next door could have an infestation. Not addressing the entire complex immediately and often is a huge problem. The contracted pest control vendors left bait gel around the house. Having your food preparation areas contaminated with the insecticides is disgusting. Also, the gel bait looks vile, especially in the bathrooms where it seems like

someone missed the toilet and hit the wall instead. Not very professional, not practical, and not safe for my children. My suggestion to UNM SFH is to promptly remediate the cockroach problem by blitzing all SFH units with reliable and effective short and long-term pest control measurements. I feel it is UNM’s responsibility to provide clean, safe, and insect-free housing. I would like to hear your opinions about UNM housing. Are you are dealing with insect issues? What steps do you feel are appropriate? Lastly, I would like to pose a few

questions. Do you think President Stokes would have moved into the President House if she was aware of a cockroach infestation? How quickly and thoroughly would her house be treated if she walked in and saw roaches scurrying about? My guess, and it’s only a conjecture, if President Stokes lived at UNM SFH instead, there wouldn’t be a roach problem. Hunter Esmiol, UNM Graduate Student

TRACK AND FIELD

Lobo sets new school record By Robert Maler @Robert_Maler Jay Griffin IV set a new school record for New Mexico Track and Field when he blazed the men's 200-meter run in 21.08 seconds last week at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Collegiate Invitational last week, but left enough gas in the tank to accomplish the same feat again on Saturday. Griffin IV, a two-sport studentathlete, bested his own school record, shaving a fraction of a second off his time to clock a 21.07 run. Carlos Salcido — who had previously held the school record — finished second with a time of 21.28. Fellow two-sport studentathlete Elijah Lilly also notched a top-10 performance, finishing in 21.74 to place sixth. The indoor track at the Albuquerque Convention was home to another record-setting performance as cross country standout Weini Kelati showed her skills in the women's 1-mile run. She posted a new school record with a time of 4:39.43 to lead a quintet of Lobos who finished in the top five. A release said Kelati's time was 0.13 faster than Sammy Silva's previous school record set on Feb. 14, 2015 and is the top mark in the Mountain West so far this season. Adva Cohen (4:47.90), Hannah Nuttall (4:51.75), Kieran Casey (4:53.62) and Emily Martin (4:58.38) finished two through five, respectively. That helped the Lobos

dominate with a team score of 33 points in that event alone. Other individual wins included Sophie Eckel's women's 3000-meter performance. She completed the run in 10:06.36, easily outpacing the next-closest competitor. Teammate and local product Mackenzie Everett turned in an eighth-place time of 10:31.93. Larimar Rodriguez edged out teammate Steffi Jones to win the women's 600-meter run, clocking in at 1:34.39 — a little over half a second quicker than Jones' secondplace time of 1:34.97. Cathilee Mullings continue to improve her numbers in the long and triple jump events. She picked up a second-place finish in the women's triple jump with an attempt that yielded a 40 foot, 1 1/2 inch mark and placed sixth in the long jump, posting a distance of 17 feet, 8 1/4 inches. In other field events, Allison Mady notched a fourth-place finish in the women's shot put with a toss of 45 feet 1 1/2 inches. On the men's side, Aidan Quinn took the top spot in the triple jump — posting a 48 feet, 6 inch attempt that was good enough for first place. In the men's triple, UNM's Tanner Battikha came in second place with a mark of 23 feet, 6 3/4 inch, followed by Ryan Chase's thirdplace jump of 23 feet, 4 inches. Back on the track, another close one-two Lobo finish took place in the men's 800-meter run. Former Lobo turned pro Josh Kerr won the event with a time of of 1:48.55, preceding the UNM trio of Michael

Wilson (1:49.17), Kristian Uldbjerg Hansen (1:49.24) and Max Wharton (1:53.46) to tally 24 points as a team in the event. Jonny Glen ran unattached in the men's 1-mile run and finished in 4:16.74, while Jared Garcia ran it in 4:19.21 for New Mexico. Isaac Cole turned in a 48.34 performance in the men's 400-meter dash to come in third place in the event. In the men's 4x400-meter relay, the quartet of Cole, Salcido, Wharton and Alejandro Goldston also placed third, with a team time of 3:19.04. The UNM men's team scored a total of 105 points to place third overall in the standings, while the women garnered 99 points to come in fourth. Grand Canyon and Washington State flip-flopped in the standings with GCU taking the top spot in the men's standings with a top of 172, while the Cougars took the podium on the women's side with a cumulative score of 114. The Lobos will play host again as the indoor season continues on Friday, Feb 1. when the New Mexico Collegiate Classic, a two-day event, gets underway at the Albuquerque Convention Center.

What UNM lobbyists spend their money on By Danielle Prokop @ProkopDani The University of New Mexico, like many political entities, has been spending a lot of money at the New Mexico Legislature, or at least, the lobbyists they’ve hired as consultants have. According to the New Mexico Secretary of State’s office a lobbyist is someone who is compensated to influence “official action,” which includes legislation. Lobbyists are legally required to publicly disclose their spending three times a year (in January, May and October). This includes both the amount they contribute to campaigns, and their expenses on the job. However, there’s a pretty large loophole in the disclosures. If a lobbyist spends less than $100 at a time, they don’t have to tell you what they spent it on, who they spent it on, or who they were working for when they spent it. These small expenditures can add up to thousands of dollars, typically disclosed as lunches or dinners. UNM hired three lobbyists for the 2019 session — Joe Thompson, Daniel Lopez and Mathew Muñoz.

CNM and UNM receive $2 million humanities grant By Andrew Gunn @agunnwrites Thanks to a $2 million grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, obtaining a degree in humanities from Central New Mexico Community College or the University of New Mexico just got a little easier. The grant — which will be awarded over a three year period — provides $1.2 million for UNM and $800,000 for CNM in order to increase the number of humanities graduates in New Mexico. “Building Humanities Pathways: A CNM and UNM Partnership for Innovation and Success” is an initiative that will focus on a number of programs designed to facilitate the transfer of students between the two institutions, improve degree completion rates and emphasize the importance of an education in the humanities in

an increasingly globalized and STEM-focused economy, according to the grant proposal. The humanities cover a broad spectrum of disciplines, including: art, languages, literature, music, philosophy and religion. Dr. Irene Vasquez, the department chair of Chicana and Chicano Studies at UNM and project investigator for the grant, underscored the value of the multiple disciplines that make up the field. “We know that the humanities are an approach to understanding the world that emphasizes diversity and understanding human society through narratives,” Vasquez said. “The humanities (are) important in terms of instilling critical thinking and cross-cultural understanding, and in our society today, I think there is a great need for understanding human complexity and diversity.” According to the grant proposal, education, business and other industry leaders have focused on hiring

employees with skill sets derived from a humanities based education, which include: creative problem solving, analyzing and interpreting texts and data and communication. Increasing the success rate of humanities students transferring from CNM to UNM will play a large part in the use of the funds. As reported by the Digest of Education Statistics, 80 percent of community college students in the U.S. intend to transfer to a baccalaureate institution, yet only 33 percent eventually do. The Mellon Foundation aims to increase that number and recognizes that New Mexico has unique challenges presented by a diverse population, Vasquez said. “The other thing (the Mellon Foundation) is looking at is diversifying the student population that pursues the study of humanities,” she said. “We’re talking about, on the one hand, increasing degree completion rates for working class, underrepresented, and historically underserved

student populations, but also exposing students to areas in the humanities that they haven’t been exposed to previously.” New Mexico ranks among the bottom five states for low-income transfer students earning bachelor’s degrees within six years, according to the Hechinger Report. The expected outcomes for the CNM/UNM Humanities Pathways Initiative will include increasing the number of students entering CNM and declaring humanities majors, creating clear transfer pathways to UNM, and improving institutional structure and cohesion between the two in regards to course syllabi and instruction. Vasquez also stated the Mellon Foundation has a history of investing in New Mexico, emphasizing the diversity of the state as an asset. “The fact that it’s a majority-minority state is appealing to them,” she said. “They understand that our students — if they’re to pursue a college education

— (they) need supplemental support to be able to engage at the highest level, particularly working class and underrepresented students.” The Andrew M. Mellon Foundation, a nonprofit corporation named after the American business magnate, was formed in 1969 as a result of the merger of two philanthropy groups founded by his children. Their mission, according to their website, is to “strengthen, promote, and, where necessary, defend the contributions of the humanities and the arts to human flourishing and to the well-being of diverse and democratic societies.” The foundation had an approximate endowment of $6.8 billion at the end of 2017.

“Querencia” series. In his brief lecture, Lamadrid explored the unique cross-cultural place that genízaros, or coyotes, occupy in New Mexico. He did so by using examples of New Mexican literature and folklore that spanned more than a century. “Coyote comes from the mestizo class structure,” Lamadrid said, explaining that in colonial times, a new group of people arose from the contact between settlers, natives and others in the area. Lamadrid explains that after the Apache wars ended in 1868, the word genízaros essentially disappeared from the New Mexican consciousness, citing the creation of patchwork land grants as its downfall. Land grants insulated

genízaros from the world, but the food, storytelling and other traditions persevered. Genízaros is now used to describe New Mexicans with Spanish, Anglo and pueblo heritage. Photographs, excerpts of literary works and personal accounts of various authors were used to spotlight this intercultural experience, specifically the impact of the historic capture and servitude of genízaros. Besides living on in literature and research, the Works Progress Administration made an effort to collect oral histories from genízaros in the late 1930s. He gave no further explanation as to how the word coyote came to represent genízaros. Lamadrid stated that in researching

the context of the literary presence of genízaros, he and others consulted with tribal members as well as others who could fall into that category. In modern times, many people either don’t identify with the word genízaros or are unfamiliar with the term. “¡Soy Genízaros!” exclaims author Gilberto Benito Cordova in his book “Big Dreams and Dark Secrets in Chimayo.” Here is one person who does identify as being in that unique cultural in-between. To learn more about this, try Leslie Marmon Silko’s latest book, The Turquoise Ledge, a memoir chronicling her life in Laguna Pueblo as a coyote. The People & Places lecture series

will have several more presentations through the spring semester. All of the future lectures focus on New Mexico history and the people that shaped it, and feature speakers from universities across the country. The next topic will be “Crownpoint Boarding School Through Diné Generations,” presented by Farina King of Northeastern State University in Oklahoma. It will take place in the Frank Waters Room at 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 6.

paying? The Daily Lobo attempted to obtain consulting contracts for the years 2013 through 2017. However, only one record was given for each lobbyist; or, in the case of Muñoz, no record was provided. Thompson’s contract shows he was hired for consulting at a fee of $99,000 per year as of 2015, the latest record available. Hull was paid for a duration of of April 1 through March 31, 2016 a

consulting fee of $4,083.33 per month. Muñoz’s contract from years 2013 through 2017 was not said to not be available according to a letter from the Records Custodian. Lopez’s contract agreed to pay for consulting services for $41,000 and spanned Jan. 1, 2017 until March 31, 2017. All the lobbyists are also compensated for NM Gross Receipts Tax (NMGRT). According to the New Mexico

Taxation and Revenue department, NMGRT where the buyer of services (in this case the University) compensates the seller of services (consultants) for five percent of the total price of the services. Despite fewer lobbyists, reported spending quadrupled last year — the highest by far since lobbyist contributions started being tracked in 2013.

Collage of women musicians who have climbed the 2018 charts R&B, alternative pop, and rap. Created by Danielle Prokop, Sourced by Anthony Jackson.

By Shayla Cunico Sophia Sambrano @ShaylaCunico In 2018, women climbed the charts in various industries, with the music industry being no different. The rise of female recording-artists like Ariana Grande, the seemingly anonymous H.E.R. and Kali Uchis paved the way for more women to emerge into the spotlight. The emergence doesn’t stop at the Pop charts, rather spreading across all genres including R&B, Alternative Pop and Rap. As more women pop-up on our feeds, the charts foreshadow some of the

talent that 2019 will flaunt. Summer Walker Only 28 days into the new year and Summer Walker is overpowering the Apple Music R&B/Soul top album charts, occupying three of the top five placements. The explicit version of her latest, CLEAREP sits at the number one spot, with the clean version of the project only falling behind Ella Mai’s self titled album, and her debut album, Last Day of Summer holding its own at spot number four. The Atlanta, Georgia musician caught light with “Girls Need Love” gaining enough traction to drop two soulful projects just four months apart. Walker’s mellow, organic energy keeps

the twenty two year old high on our list of female musicians to watch in 2019. Track to listen to: CLEAR-EP Men I Trust Men I Trust is a band from Quebec, Canada fronted by Emma Proulx. Since releasing the electronic-heavy album Headroom in 2016, the band has pivoted to an indie pop sound. The band has released many singles and EP’s in the last two years, including “Tailwhip,” “Seven” and “Show Me How,” all of which showcase the band’s versatility and ear for catchy popinfluenced hooks. After playing at Tyler the Creators’ Camp Flog Gnaw this fall, the group will continue touring the U.S. and Canada this spring, with a spot on Coachella’s lineup in April. Men I Trust’s well-crafted pop music is perfect for a drive with friends, and their fans are looking forward to a full album of warm, bouncy tracks. Track to listen to: “Show Me How” Rico Nasty Rico Nasty is a 21-year-old up and coming rapper from the Baltimore area, and her 2018 debut album Nasty skyrocketed the rapper into critical acclaim and the public eye. Known for her rage-y girl anthems like “Smack a B*tch” and “Poppin” the rapper has been slowly gaining traction since her mixtapes and singles released throughout 2016-17. The rapper is also known for her colorful looks and ability to switch up into a variety of styles with ease and an inimitable coolness, which has earned her spreads and features in FADER, I-D and other major music and culture magazines. An authentic and captivating rapper and performer, Rico Nasty will play Coachella and

Track to listen to: “Countin’ Up” Rina Sawayama Japanese-born and Londonraised Rina Sawayama’s debut EP, RINA came out at then end of 2017. A fresh pop record that combined a throwback 2000’s sound with futuristic sensibilities, Sawayama’s debut EP made many year-end best lists. The pop singer’s lyrics explore isolation and loneliness in the digital age, and she has gained buzz for providing lone concertgoers with special wrist-bands to normalize the experience. Sawayama continued to please fans and critics alike releasing several one-off singles in 2018, including “Cherry” which received praise for its themes of acceptance and bisexuality. She already has 2019 festival dates booked, and is expected to continue releasing new material in the meantime. Track to listen to: “Cherry” Tommy Genesis Awful-records affiliated Tommy Genesis released her self-titled album under Downtown Records in November 2018. Her first full-length project since 2015’s buzzworthy World Vision, Tommy Genesis features this year’s earlier collaboration with Charli XCX and another with other up-and-coming pop act, Empress Of. She released a film online to accompany several songs from the album called “God is Wild,” and is set to embark on a solo tour of the U.S. and Europe this spring.

Women’s Basketball

Lobos move to first place in conference after win By Cameron Goeldner @Goeldfinger

The New Mexico Women’s Basketball team went into Logan, Utah with a big opportunity in front of them, and they took advantage of it with a 68-64 win over the Utah State Aggies and reclaimed first place in the Mountain West. The Lobos entered the day tied with the Aggies for second place in the conference, one game behind the Boise State Broncos for first place, but the Broncos suffered their first loss in conference against

Wyoming in Laramie. “We’re built for conference games and built to grind them out,” Bradbury said in a post-game phone interview with the Albuquerque Journal. “We’re not built to blow teams out, so I guess this is how it’s gonna be. I’m getting used to it.” Jayla Everett led the way for the Lobos with 22 points, two assists and two rebounds, as well as seven turnovers. Ahlise Hurst and Jaisa Nunn joined her in double figures with 13 points each, with Nunn recording a double-double, adding 11 rebounds to her final stat line. The Lobos led for the majority of

the game, with the Aggies leading for only 14 seconds. USU kept the game close, giving them a chance to win in the final minutes, but the Lobos were able to do just enough to keep out in front. USU outscored the Lobos in the fourth quarter 1917, and had the game tied with as little as 1:05 remaining in the game. Everett put the Lobos back on top on the following possession with a three, and they forced a turnover on the opposing end followed by a split a pair of foul shots from Everett. The Aggies missed a shot on the next possession, Nike McClure grabbed the rebound and hit one of two free throws on the

other end to stretch the Lobos lead to five. The Aggies would cut it back to a one possession game, but Everett sealed the deal with another free throw to secure the win. “Jayla was incredible,” Bradbury said. “She had to play a lot of point guard because (Aisia Robertson) was in foul trouble, she had to score, and she seemed to hit a big shot every time Utah State made a run.” The Lobos are No. 44 in the nation in RPI, the system that the NCAA Selection Committee uses to help select teams for the NCAA Tournament, up from No. 47 prior to their win over the Aggies.

After a midweek bye, the Lobos will return to the Pit to take on Fresno State Saturday, Feb. 2 at 2 p.m. The Bulldogs are currently tied for second place in the conference with the Broncos, and have an overall record of 13-5.

“Weekend” vs. “Love, Simon”: How to make an LGBTQ movie By Kyle Land @kyleoftheland There was no shortage of bigname LGBTQ movies in 2018. However, no gay film got heterosexual people more excited to see two men kissing each other than “Love, Simon.” Unfortunately. One could really spend a good seven hours picking apart and dissecting the various flaws in the Greg Berlanti film. Besides the fact that Simon has virtually no character traits other than being gay and delves into all the stereotypes associated with coming out (including a cringey Google search on “how to dress like a gay guy”), the worst part about this movie is how Simon, from the very beginning, tries to appease all of the straight people in his life and how they treat him in response. When I saw this movie for the first time, I asked my partner his thoughts on it. “It’s a good gay movie for straight people,” he said, a statement that perfectly sums up everything wrong with the story. Ultimately, “Love, Simon” falls into the same trap “Alex Strangelove” and other millennial coming-out movies often land in —

Tickets

from page

gay characters can be happy with who they are only after the straight people in their life have given approval first. (Spoilers ahead) For what seems like the whole film, Simon is trying desperately to not ruin the relationships in his life, which is understandable. As an LGBTQ person, there’s always a fear that coming out will cause everyone in your life to turn against you. It is a visceral and very real fear. When a blackmailer reveals to the school that Simon is gay and that he has lied to his friends multiple times in order to keep his secret under wraps, how do his friends react to the news? Well, they completely leave him in his time of need, only concerned with the fact that he lied to them out of fear and almost offended that he felt scared coming out to them (which, by the way, is one of worst reactions you can have to someone coming out). This situation is resolved by all of Simon’s terrible friends forgiving him, meanwhile offering no apologies for abandoning him during one of the most trying times in his life, when he needed friends the most. The movie ends with a disappointedly meek kiss between Simon and the boy he has a crush on, as a sea of straight people applaud in response, one giant nod of approval.

Simon starts off the movie by telling the audience what a normal and typical life he has, which makes it even sadder how far he will go to preserve this “normal” life he craves so dearly. He can be gay as long it doesn’t affect anybody else’s life — as long as he doesn’t shove it down their throats. This raises the question. What does a good representation of gay people in film look like? Look no further than Andrew Haigh’s 2011 masterpiece “Weekend.” While there are more diverse movies that depict queer people of color and transgender people as well, “Weekend” does what “Love, Simon” tries so hard to achieve but fails — show gay people in their normal everyday lives. The two main characters, Russell and Glen, meet one Friday night in Nottingham, England and hit it off. It is then revealed that Glen is leaving for the United States on Sunday, and the two have to reconcile their feelings for each other with the situation at hand. During this tense and romantic journey, the viewer gets a feel for Russell’s daily life as he moves around a fiercely heterosexual world, while largely hiding his identity. The strongest attribute of “Weekend” is that it’s not a coming-out story. The characters do not dive

The new ticketing system will be used for outside events at UNM venues, such as the Professional Bull Riders or the State High School Basketball tournaments. “The old system had no interface with the donor side, had no connection with the season ticket side,” UNM Chief Procurement Officer Bruce Cherrin said. “If I’m a season ticket holder, like I am — and I don’t go to some games, like I don’t — I had no easy way of giving my tickets to somebody. You can do that now. Then you just

scan it when you walk in (to the venue). It brings the features into the 21st Century.” Cherrin said that the new system not only provides the customers with more features, but will also be cheaper for the University. "We look forward to providing the University of New Mexico fans and patrons with a world-class experience," Paciolan President and CEO Kim Damron said in a release. "Armed with Paciolan's personalized solutions, we know UNM will take their growth strategies to the

into a sea of cliches, wondering if being gay means they have to love 1980s pop and Sunday brunch. In fact, the characters more often rebuke these cliches as something not even worth discussing. Living as an LGBTQ person is less about watching RuPaul’s Drag Race and more about not being able to hold your partner’s hand in public, remaining silent as straight people talk about their sexual exploits and shaking in fear as you come out to your friends and family. “Weekend” explores all of these themes and more. This is where I should step in and say that “Love, Simon” is not a completely terrible movie. It does

have its quality moments. However, it spends so much effort trying to convince gay people that straight people love them that it goes from accepting to patronizing. “Love, Simon” and “Weekend” may be completely different types of movies, but the former commits the heinous act of forgetting who it is for, and in doing so serves nobody at all.

next level and foster an even deeper connection with their vibrant Lobo community." The system is expected to be fully implemented for athletics by spring 2019, when football season ticket sales will begin. The switch will take longer at Popejoy, however, as the two systems will be used simultaneously for six months until the new system can be used for everything.

Ticketing at UNM was most recently handled through the UNM ticketing system, which was run through Institutional Support Services that handled ticketing for venues such as Popejoy and Rodey Hall, as well as outside organizations such as the State Fair. This system was considered by many to be outdated.
