Students elect next ASUNM president and VP

By Chtherine Stringam @cathey_stringam The president and vice president of the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico for the 2018-2019 school year were announced Wednesday evening.

Unopposed candidates Becka Myers, president elect, and Emily Wilks, vice president elect, were met with applause, as they were officially selected for their positions.

Voting started Monday and closed at 5 p.m. Wednesday. Shortly after polls closed, students gathered at the Student Union Building Atrium to see the results and hear from their new leaders.

“It’s incredibly liberating to be supported by my student body and to get to represent them,” Wilks said. “I really do think we have the mindset to change the culture on this campus.”

As the new president, Myers said she wants to focus on making ASUNM more transparent and approachable for students.

She said that from the beginning of their campaign, they have focused on outreach and making sure student organizations are included and represented well.

Myers said, “Our work is just beginning.”

She also said she wants to tackle the issues of safety and sexual assault on UNM’s campus.

Noah Brooks, the 2017-2018 president of ASUNM, was in attendance Wednesday night as well, in one of his last events as president.

“Being president has been the best experience I’ve ever had,” Brooks said. “I’ve

learned a lot, I had a really great team behind me and I experienced a lot of things that I never thought I’d experience at this age.”

Brooks will soon be graduating from UNM with a degree in economics.

“It’s bittersweet, but I’m excited for President Elect Myers and Vice President Elect Wilks,” he said “I think they’re going to do a

great job, and I feel very comfortable leaving ASUNM in their hands.”

ASUNM Sen. Jordan Montoya said she thinks the transition between presidents will be a smooth one.

“I know Becka and Noah have a good, cohesive relationship, and so I think he can give her a lot of insight and tips to help her excel

and kind of pass the baton on,” Montoya said.

Xavier Vallejo and Zachary Lichtie worked with Myers and Wilks on their campaign.

Vallejo and Lichtie said Myers and Wilks knew what they wanted to do from the beginning.

“I think they are going to do incredible.

Becka and Emily both love ASUNM more than most of the students on this campus — actually more than all of them,” Lichtie said.

Fellow ASUNM Sen. Nadine Oglesby said she has no doubt the new presidency will work hard to accomplish their goals.

“Becka is always in and out of the office, running around doing the nitty-gritty stuff,” Oglesby said. “That goes for Emily as well, in her committees, she answers the tough questions and does the jobs that nobody wants to do.”

“I’ve seen that (Myers and Wilks) really care and want to see a brighter future for UNM students, and so I definitely stand behind them in anything they do,” Lichtie said.

Myers and Wilks stressed that, even in their busy jobs, they are always available and want to get to know the students.

“Our door is always open, and students can always come in and hang out with us,” Wilks said. “Becka and I are undergraduates just like them, and we really do want to start building relationships with the student body...They should stop by and come get to know us.”

Stokes breaks the ice at town hall

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Pair of Lobos to transfer out

By Noah Vigil @NoahJV21 The Daily Lobo hosted a town hall Tuesday with the University of New Mexico President, Garnett S. Stokes, in an effort to help the UNM community get to know her a bit better.

Daily Lobo Editor-in-Chief Elizabeth Sanchez and News Editor Kyle Land asked her questions throughout the event — some of their own, some from the public. The public’s questions were submitted through email, social media and on index cards during the event.

The town hall began with introductions and Stokes telling the audience about her life experiences.

Stokes was born in Washington, D.C. and went to college in Tennessee. She said one of her favorite memories of college is attending basketball games.

When asked about the University’s role in political activism, Stokes said, “I know that our faculty plays a role in working with our students who are really thinking about what they’re passionate about.”

She said she believes in efficiency and effectiveness in how the University invests resources.

The discussion of the athletic budget arose, and she responded saying the need for athletics to have their own chief financial officer was discovered.

Many questions submitted to the Lobo through email and social media inquired about the investigation of head football coach Bob Davie.

Left to right, News Editor Kyle Land and Editor-in-Chief Elizabeth Sanchez speak with UNM President Garnett S. Stokes during a town hall hosted by the Daily Lobo in the SUB Atrium on March 27, 2018.

To this topic, Stokes said, “I take these issues very very seriously. I know that there is a desire for culture change and need for culture change, but I believe under Eddie Nuñez’ leadership that a number of things are taking place, so if there are future issues to be managed I will work with the athletics director to try to deal with those,” she said.

The University’s budget was also discussed.

The funding allocated for campus security is going toward increased personal, lighting and security throughout campus, Stokes said.

“I certainly have heard from students the concern about campus safety, which made me happy that in the Budget Summit last week we were able to get approval for a tuition fee hike that would, in part, allow us to make investments that are important there,” she said.

Stokes said she supported the tuition increase,

knowing there was strong support among students, faculty and staff.

“Without (a tuition increase) we would not be able to invest in some of the areas that we thought were high-priority, retaining faculty and giving raises,” she said. “(The town hall) opens up transparency for the students,” said the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico President Noah Brooks, who attended the event.

Stokes said she was glad to have the opportunity to be a part of the event.

Last year, the University of New Mexico men’s basketball team saw a multitude of players announce their intentions to leave the program before a new head coach took the reins and coaxed some of them into staying put.

And while head coach Paul Weir has seemed to connect with the roster and get them to buy into his philosophy, arguably bringing stability to what looked like a shaky program in that regard, a release said a pair of players were recently granted their release to pursue other opportunities: senior forward Connor MacDougall and junior transfer Jachai Simmons.

MacDougall didn’t see any action during the past season after he suffered a foot injury during

LOBO PAGE TWO Course covers women in music

By Annie Edwards @annie_ce18 Female Voices in Music Composition is an ongoing course this semester, taught by Ana Alonso-Minutti, Ph.D., an associate professor of Musicology and Ethnomusicology at the University of New Mexico.

This course, offered through UNM’s Department of Music, focuses on female composers throughout various genres of music, encouraging students to engage with content through readings, listening selections and films.

At the end of January and at the beginning of February, the course covered women in gospel and blues before moving on to jazz styles.

Students then covered female voices in the medieval and Renaissance musical periods before moving to modern music. In April, the course will cover protest songs and hip-hop.

“Issues of representation, gender and sexuality inform the close study of selected repertory, taking into account scholarly perspectives from feminism, critical race theory and music criticism,” Alonso-Minutti said.

The course aims to address the imbalance of representation in music studies with content that focuses on the works of female creators. Through an intersectional approach to the course material, Alonso-Minutti said she focuses not only on gender, but on class, sexuality and race.

“The percentage of female composers/ creators studied and/or performed in both courses and concerts is significantly small, and even within that marginalized percentage, there is almost no representation of women of color,” Alonso-Minutti said.

She completed a study of Mariana Villanueva’s chamber work during her undergraduate honors thesis. Villanueva, a female Mexican composer, was 34 at that time.

“I remember having to heavily justify my selection by addressing the quality of her work, which was, of course, put into question,” Alonso-Minutti said.

Alonso-Minutti’s music education did not

expose her to female composers, she said.

“My piano instructors, for example, never assigned a piece composed by a female. In my music analysis classes at the undergraduate and graduate levels, I don’t recall ever studying a score by a female composer. And in my music history courses, the majority of the material was devoted to the work of male composers,” Alonso-Minutti said.

While the course does focus on the work of female composers, its extension into social theory and gender inequality provides students with the opportunity learn about and engage with the material in a way that can be applied in practice.

“Learning about the systems of oppression, inequality and injustice that have permeated our world history grants us the tools to activate change in our present in order to shape a better future. When we study the creative work of females through diverse music genres, social classes and ethnic backgrounds, we are encouraged also to activate our own creativity and to practice a feminist life,” Alonso-Minutti said.

Students wrote their first assignment in the course on how females shaped them musically. Their reflections ranged from family members to teachers to pop singers.

“Music is a tool that, consciously or unconsciously, shapes and reshapes our sense of identity,” Alonso-Minutti said.

During the last week of the course, students will cover feminist music festivals and read Alonso-Minutti’s essay on the festival, Gatas y Vatas, which was published this year in Oxford Scholarship Online.

The course will likely be taught again next spring and will be available to both music and non-music majors, Alonso-Minutti said.

“No prior music knowledge is required.

The course is a great opportunity for nonmusic majors to develop listening skills and basic music knowledge,” she said.

an exhibition game against former rival Brigham Young University. The Lobos lost that contest 79-73 and essentially lost one of their few big men on the roster in MacDougall as well.

The release said he is planning on graduating at the conclusion of the current semester and could join another team as a graduate transfer.

The 6-foot-9-inch forward never really got a chance to showcase his talents while at New Mexico, playing sparingly as a sophomore in 2016-17. During that season he appeared in 27 games, averaging 4.0 points and 1.9 rebounds.

Though MacDougall never got to play for the first-year Lobo head coach in an official game, Weir sounded complimentary of him in recognizing his potential opportunity.

“We wish nothing but the best in the next chapter of Connor’s journey,” Weir said in a release. “His graduation from the University of New Mexico is an amazing accomplishment, and I hope it is just the beginning of a terrific future ahead.”

The versatile six-foot-seven-inch talent Simmons, whom Weir recruited, started in 10 of the 25 games he played in.

Simmons logged just 3.4 points and 1.6

He showed flashes of brilliance during his time on the court, logging a season-high 15 points on 6-of-7 shooting in an 87-58 victory over Air Force on Dec. 27, 2017.

Simmons’ length made him a formidable defensive presence, and he seemed to especially enjoy playing on that end of the floor, often showing emotion after he drew a charge or made a defensive stop.

But his role on the team seemed to diminish as the season drew toward the end, and he reportedly was dealing with some personal issues.

Simmons did not play at all in the team’s final three regular season games and never saw the floor during the Mountain West Tournament either.

Job fair promotes entrepreneurship

By Catherine Stringam @cathey_stringam The University of New Mexico Innovation Academy hosted a Create Your Own Job Fair for young entrepreneurs on Tuesday.

Setting it aside from a traditional job fair, the event was structured to support young people interested in starting their own business — essentially creating their own jobs.

Companies from across Albuquerque — like Nusenda, WESST, Sandia Labs, Air Force Research Labs, ABQid, SCORE Business Mentoring and many more — set up booths and talked to students at Lobo Rainforest.

Students had the opportunity to wander through the non-traditional job fair and discuss their business ideas with company representatives.

They received advice and information to help them reach their business goals.

“It’s definitely helpful to have all these people in one place, because they’re all diverse and all from different companies and have different ways to help,” UNM

student Katherine Brunner said.

Connor Lites, a graduate student at UNM, said it can be hard to start a business, and this event helped him to find his next steps.

“It’s difficult figuring out where to go when you’re an entrepreneur,” Lites said. “I’m looking to get funding and mentorship and consulting, so this event was really great.”

Robert Del Campo, director of the Innovation Academy, said the last time the Create Your Own Job Fair happened was several years ago, but he wanted to bring it back to benefit students.

“We have different ways that we try to help and fund students that are interested in starting their own enterprise,” Del Campo said.

Some of these funds come from competitions, such as the Innovation Academy’s pitch competition coming up in April, he said.

“There’s a lot of free help to small businesses that they don’t really realize,” said Sandia National Labs Project Manager Judy Hendricks.

Hendricks said a small New Mexico business can come consult with the engineers and biologists

at Sandia Labs for free. Many of the other companies at the career fair offer free consulting and aid for young business people as well.

The Innovation Academy currently works with 34 student-run businesses, according to Del Campo.

Kyle Guin attended the event and is one of these entrepreneurs at the academy. He currently runs a company called Shutter Bombs, which sells smoke bombs for use in photography and art.

Students Katherine Brunner and Molly Schmeltzer also attended the event and said they are trying to start a membership subscription for beer coupons.

“We talk about how our economy is depressed here in Albuquerque, but there are actually a lot of efforts that are being made to build our economy and our businesses and our community,” Lites said. “It’s important that we take advantage of these opportunities.”

Prof teaches Afro-Mexican culture

By Megan Holmen @megan_holmen Editor’s Note: This is part of a series of five profiles on women associated with the University of New Mexico, who have been recognized

by Albuquerque Business First as women of influence in New Mexico.

Doris Careaga, Ph.D. is a professor in the Chicano and Chicana Studies Department, where she teaches classes that focus on AfroMexican culture and heritage.

“Afro-Mexican studies is not only my subject in a professional way, but it is a huge part of my life,” she said.

Careaga is from Tamiahua, Mexico and grew up with both African and Mexican culture, she said. She now works with a program called Afro-Tamiahua that helps empower the residents of her hometown RM

by giving them the history and tools they need to further understand their identity as Afro-Mexicans.

This culture and heritage are rarely talked about in history books, and her students are excited to learn about something new.

Often they are learning about their own heritage, she said.

“The most important thing is (students) know their own history, and in my sense, you are a better human being when you are happy, conscious and aware of your past, your heritage,” Careaga said.

Careaga began to do extensive research on Afro-Mexican heritage after she earned her bachelor’s degree. She was specifically interested in learning about the food, because her family in Tamiahua owned a restaurant, she said.

Careaga works to be supportive of the women taking her classes, she said.

LETTERS

Why we need Easter prayers in America Editor,

The gospels of Matthew and Mark identify the place where Jesus prayed shortly before his betrayal by Judas and then later his trial and crucifixion at Gethsemane.

Jesus was accompanied by three of his followers, Peter, John and James, whom he asked to stay awake and pray. During his agony as he prayed, “his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground” (Luke 22:44).

As much of the world will celebrate or at least recognize Holy Week, Good Friday and Easter, a common ritual will take place at all the events — prayer. Every Holy Week service will have at least one if not several prayers. The same will be true with all worship, Christian events on Good Friday and Easter. Prayer is always commonly associated with worship, church events, potluck dinners and almost any activity associated with Christianity.

Prayer has been a point of focus for millions of Americans. We’ve even battled over whether we should pray at school, ballgames and political gatherings. Unfortunately many Americans may not be praying at home, which is where everyone has the complete

The US should withdraw from Afghanistan immediately Editor,

After World War II, many of the Nazi military leaders were put on trial at Nuremberg and hanged for their crimes against humanity.

One of these leaders, Hermann Goring, gave a memorable quote before he was sent to the gallows. Goring said, “The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.

That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”

So at the risk of being labelled a pacifist or unpatriotic, let me state that the U.S. should have pulled out of Afghanistan years ago.

This thought came to my mind after

freedom to do so without harassment or consternation from anyone else.

Jesus knew he was facing more pain than any human being could withstand. What he would experience during his trial and crucifixion was evil and barbaric. Emotionally, spiritually and physically he tried to prepare himself for something that he or no one could really prepare for, yet he realized how vital it was to pray with intensity never quite like anyone before. The scriptures say he prayed, “his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.”

Many of us have prayed fervently. Many years ago I held my dead stillborn son for over two hours and wept without ceasing. I prayed as I wept that I would wake from this nightmare. I prayed that our little boy would awaken and cry as other newborn babies do, but while I prayed with everything in me, that little baby would not come to life and would later be buried in a grave where I still visit today.

There have been many other times I have prayed in agony. I prayed for the healing of my wife of 27 years who died from a long illness of multiple sclerosis. I have prayed for other people and in other scenarios. The prayers did not stop death from coming to my wife, nor has prayer necessarily changed a lot of other stuff that I prayed for or about along the way.

When Jesus prayed, it did not alleviate the cruelty of the cross or make his treatment from evil people any easier or better. His treatment could not have been any worse.

Why did Jesus even bother to pray? Why do you even bother to pray?

Prayer is a spiritual event of the heart and mind. Prayer often prepares you mentally and enables you to deal with what is going on. Prayer is about something that is beyond us. Prayer is about the unseen. It’s about the spiritual and is all about bringing God into the scenario.

Jesus did not in any way fail in his prayer life. The intensity of his prayer was truly answered, as Jesus accomplished what he set out to do and that was to take the sins of the world on him as he suffered, bled and died on a rugged cross. The ultimate victory is seen in that God empowered him to come back to life, conquering the grave, death and sin for all of mankind. Nothing was more beautiful to the followers of Jesus than seeing a risen, living Jesus. Thomas, a follower, exclaimed in marvel upon seeing the risen Jesus and the nail prints in his hands, “My Lord and my God.” We need prayer in America. We need it bad.

Our federal and state governments are in bad shape financially. Mismanagement, selfishness and chaos abound all around.

Our schools need prayer. Our young adults

in America are more lost than ever before.

Families are suffering and torn apart. Homelessness continues to grow.

We have become a nation that believes our only hope is to legalize more drugs, build more casinos, enact more taxes yet all the while we need more mental health workers than ever. We cannot hire enough security guards and arm them fast enough for our schools and other public places, because our country is becoming scarier than what our soldiers are facing in Iraq and Afghanistan. All the while little unborn babies are not safe in America, and the aged in America continue to increasingly work out the rest of their lives in order to survive.

Are we a happy people in America?

Happiness comes and goes based on the events of the day, it seems, but overall there is a sense of emptiness and struggle in many Americans.

While you are buying Easter candy this week, take time to pray. Prayer doesn’t always bring about what you specifically pray for. Sometimes it does, and many times it does not.

Just remember in his hour of greatest struggle, that’s what Jesus did — he prayed.

More than ever we need to pray for others, our country and ourselves.

listening to different mainstream media personalities discussing President Trump’s latest reshuffling of his cabinet. According to both liberal and conservative commentators, Trump’s new appointments John Bolton, Mike Pompeo and Gina Haspel are an indicator that the president is angling for new wars with countries like Russia, North Korea or Iran.

This analysis did not cut the mustard with me, because isn’t the U.S. military still fighting in Afghanistan? In fact didn’t President Trump engage in a complete flip-flop on Afghanistan by saying that he plans on sending around 3,000 more American soldiers to carry on the fight?

Let’s say that the U.S. currently has 14,000 soldiers in Afghanistan, during the Obama administration there was a point in 2011 when the U.S. had deployed around 100,000 soldiers to militarily defeat the Taliban.

If 100,000 U.S. soldiers in 2011 were unable to militarily defeat the Taliban, then how in the hell are 14,000 U.S. soldiers going to militarily defeat the Taliban in 2018?

If U.S. politicians want the public to believe that we must continue to stay in Afghanistan in order to protect the nation from another terrorist attack, then let’s remember that Osama bin Laden has been dead for years, and the U.S. taxpayers never agreed to make Afghanistan into our 51st state. If the true reason for the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan was to kill Osama bin Laden and to dismantle al-Qaeda, then all U.S. soldiers should have been pulled out of Afghanistan immediately after bin Laden was killed.

Americans hate losing, but does the American public really have the stomach for a 100-year war?

The U.S. war in Afghanistan has become

the longest war in the history of the U.S. and there is no military victory in sight. This war has been going on for almost 17 years and how many more American military personnel have to die in order to protect the pride of spineless politicians who are scared of going down in history as the politicians who lost in Afghanistan?

Although he was testifying about Vietnam, former Sen. John Kerry’s words about Vietnam in 1971 are just as applicable to the foolish U.S. occupation of Afghanistan in 2018. Kerry said, “How do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam? How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?”

Program improves passing rates in math

By Donald Amble @Deambler Remedial math at the University of New Mexico looked starkly different five years ago than it does now after the 2013 implementation of the Math Learning Lab, or MaLL. The MaLL’s mission is to increase the passing rate for UNM’s lower-division math courses, according to their website.

Srini Vasan, Ph.D., the program’s director, said the intermediate algebra course, Math 120, had been giving the math department headaches well up to 2013. He said Math 120 was a remedial course that had been trapping students due to its inefficient teaching model.

Each section of Math 120 could only support a maximum of 60 students. He said it was not flexible, and many students had to retake the class with little grade improvement — there was a 30 to 50 percent pass rate.

When the MaLL was established, Math 120 was broken up into three one-credit courses: Math 101, Math 102 and Math 103. These became software-based formats to support about 100 students each, Vasan said.

The MaLL is enthusiastic about its ability to serve far more students than its predecessor class, and now remedial math is no longer a trap for incoming UNM students, he said.

Between 2016 and 2017 there was an increase in the passing rate by around 10 percent across all courses, Vasan said, crediting this to the new teaching format and the increased access to resources that the MaLL provides.

“Students like the softwarebased format, and it gives them the flexibility to continue the work at home and be ahead of the required benchmarks,” he said. “These courses are highly flexible.”

The MaLL has been experimenting with ways increasing student efficiency. Project Assistant Linh Ward has been essential in implementing slight changes in the curriculum over time, Vasan said.

“By making incremental changes every semester…we have increased our pass rates continuously,” Vasan said.

One change the MaLL implemented was splitting up intermediate algebra into three eight-week sessions.

“The program rewards student

work and initiative, because they can get six credit hours through this program,” Ward said. “This gives them the opportunity to graduate faster and build up their GPA.” The MaLL has been a popular program for UNM, as about 2,000 students use the program each year, Vasan said, adding that the staff say they are not overwhelmed.

“Nothing else can replace the MaLL and be more effective, efficient or economical,” Vasan said.

The MaLL prides itself on handling the task of assisting so many students as efficiently as possible, even with experiencing an increase in course enrollment, he said.

“Our task is to manage the

scheduling aspects of classes,” Vasan said. “We have been becoming more efficient in class scheduling and space utilization.”

The program has also begun to help students in dual-enrollment courses enter UNM ready to take advanced math courses, Vasan said. It is available to anyone who received a score of 18-20 on the ACT math section.

Vasan is retiring in August of 2018, and he said he is very confident in MaLL’s ongoing success.

“Our team consisting of my Project Assistant Linh Ward, our instructors, especially Don Adamson, our tutors and our Director Mr. Jurg Bolli of the

“It is really important for every woman to know that she can do all that she wants to do. We are very capable,” Careaga said.

When Careaga moved to the U.S. in her 30s and began her master’s degree, she was raising her children. Careaga knows firsthand what it is like to go to school and raise a family, and so she is supportive of her students who are raising children and attending school, she said.

Careaga tries to understand students’ circumstances and works with them, so that they are successful in her class, she said.

“You can be a better mom when you are a good student. Your kids are going to see that, and they are going to be thankful for that,” Careaga said.
