Soon, retail and food near The Pit by Tanya Prather
news@dailylobo.com Land on south campus is ready for business. After nearly six years of deliberation, on March 11 the UNM Board of Regents approved a 74-year lease of land near The Pit. The agreement is between the University and Ohiobased company, Fairmount Properties LLC. The approval was for a release form for land development, according to the Master Development Agreement negotiated by the Lobo Development Corporation and Fairmount. The approved ground lease form is the second in a series of steps to bring restaurants and shops to the area near The Pit, and so far only the developer has been named. When Fairmount finds businesses for the area, it will have to submit them to the regents for approval, UNM Director of Communications Dianne Anderson said. Regent Conrad James said developing space for businesses will benefit the University financially while giving residents and visitors more retail and dining options in the area.

“All of the regents are in agreement about having a balance of restaurants, retail and coffee shops, with national and local businesses,” James said. UNM officials said that based on a preliminary estimate, the development is expected make the University a profit of about $1.5 million to $2 million annually once completed, according to the Albuquerque Journal. Business major Robert Martens said that if it were up to him, he would put a New Mexican-style grill and cantina with a sports bar twist for spectators to go for a drink after hosted events at The Pit. “That’s mostly all I want down there, anything other than Lobo (souvenir) shops, we have too many Lobo shops. Any food and alcohol places are what it would need,” Martens said. There are two Lobo souvenir shops in the area, including the University’s own Lobo Store at The Pit. Savannah Padilla, an elementary education major, agrees that there should be more New Mexican restaurants brought to the area such as local favorite Sadie’s, and

Starting in the fall, a new degree is available to UNM students. A bachelor’s degree in honors interdisciplinary liberal arts will be offered to students next semester through the University Honors College. Students looking to major in a degree in the Honors College must meet the 3.2 GPA requirement to be accepted to and stay in the college. They must also have a focus going into the degree, in the form of either an additional major or a minor. Students must take 12 credit hours of a foreign language and 36 credit hours of honors courses. Several of the required honors courses are core credits, with six of the credit hours being experiential fieldwork courses. Finally, they must complete a senior project or thesis. To minor in honors interdisciplinary liberal arts, students must take 24 credit hours in the college, including six hours of experiential fieldwork courses. Honors student Anna Adams said she is considering a minor in the program, though she is cautious.
“I was wondering how successful it would be because it’s new. I did not think right away ‘Yes, I’m going to minor in that,’” she said. “I was talked into it when I had my peer advising session because they were pointing out I only needed a few more credits and then I would get it, so why not?” Adams, a sophomore in her second year in the Honors College, is an English major and plans to attend graduate school after earning her bachelor’s degree. She said a minor in the program might help her chances when applying to graduate schools. “It sounds impressive, ‘I minored in honors,’” she said. “It’s the honors program, it’s prestigious.” Honors College peer adviser Julia Anderson said the degree gives students a competitive edge when applying to graduate or professional schools. “What this is designed to do is you have your field that gives you that expertise, that focus area. The honors college major gives you the depth and flavor … and extras that colleges are looking for,” Anderson said. Anderson said students must incorporate their second major or minor into their senior project or thesis.
“Regardless of what your strategy is, whether it’s complementing your main focus or diversifying your education … your interdisciplinary work has to bring together the work that you’ve been doing,” she said. “For example, if you’re taking a social justice focus with your honors work and you’re an astrophysics major, then your interdisciplinary thesis will combine those two.” Associate Dean of the Honors College Rosalie Otero said the honors classes for the degree help students learn about subjects beyond their main focus. To do any job well, you need to know how to deal with people, communicate well, and be able to think critically and creatively, she said. “It’s not just about a job focus but it’s about a human focus,” Otero said. Otero said the program’s diversity of classes is ideal to incoming freshmen who want to prepare for their career path possibly changing after graduation. “As you know people often change jobs, they don’t usually stay with one career anymore,” she said. “You need to be able to be flexible, you need to be a good thinker and a learner.”
Emergency ASUNM Senate meeting tonight, 6 p.m. SUB Ballroom B The Senate will debate whether the ASUNM fee should apply to all undergraduate students equally, regardless of credit hours taken. According to the ASUNM constitution, the fee amount is set by ASUNM and authorized by the Board of Regents. The fee is flat for all full-time students but is scaled for part-time students according to the number of credit hours those students take.

On March 14, two UNMPD officers were dispatched to a wall that comes out south of Masley Hall. There, they reportedly discovered that an unknown suspect had spray-painted phrases such as “lobo’s #1,” and “Jesus Loves You,” in addition to various symbols. By the time police arrived, personnel from the UNM Physical Plant Department were already painting over the area. The case is considered to be closed pending further leads.
Student reports Internet flimflam A UNM student reported an incident of fraud to UNMPD on Friday. According to the report, she had accepted a job offer for a “helper/nanny” position through her UNM email account on March 8.

she would receive the $500 for her first week’s pay. On March 13, she received a check for $3,600 and the following day she received an email instructing her to take $1,000 of that money for her pay and use the remaining $2,600 to buy toys and materials for the job, according to the report. She was also reportedly instructed to use MoneyGram to transfer the $2,600 out of her account to “Arifi Alex” in Venice, Fla. She did so that day, and later her bank informed her that the check was fraudulent and had been deducted from her account. She suffered a loss of $2,600 of her own money that was transferred through MoneyGram. The identity of the individual posing as the employer was unknown at the time of the report, and no further information was available.

more local retail shops, she said. “Maybe a lot of the shops they have in Santa Fe, like jewelry that local people make,” Padilla said. Though students are interested in seeing more culture in the area, some would also like to see popular restaurants they’ve heard of or tried elsewhere that are not in the area. “An In-and-Out Burger or a Dave and Buster’s, I’d vote for that,” said Keenan Lucero, a mechanical engineer major. Fairmount will develop three parcels of land: the west corner of Lobo Village; the area south of The Pit; and the area within the perimeter of I-25, Gibson and University boulevards. The parcel within I-25 and Gibson and University boulevards is slated to be developed first, according to the Master Development Agreement. Although Fairmount is not required to develop the first two plots yet, it will still pay $1,000 a month for each of them and will still hold exclusive rights over those two plots. Fairmount was given 20 days following the March 11 meeting to submit its preliminary notification, in which the company will work out with UNM the price of the land lease once it is developed, James said. The lease agreement will be based on market value of the land and other values. Fairmount will then be given a year to submit preliminary materials for the shopping center component to the regents for approval. James said this means a list of potential business ideas will be brought to
the regents for discussion. At this unscheduled future meeting, members of the community will have an opportunity to raise any concerns they have about the development, James said. In early January, Forest City Real Estate along with the Lobo Developmental Corporation conducted interviews with four prequalified development firms. Among the four was Fairmount, which “was selected as the developer for the commercial, mixed-use project based upon their extensive experience with other university projects around the country,” said David Harris, president of the LDC, in a memo to the Regents. Most of the University, mixeduse and residential developments that Fairmount lists on its website are in Ohio. Fairmount has already helped develop and re-construct six colleges throughout Ohio. Fairmount is also working with the University of Rochester in New York, the only project listed on its website outside Ohio besides UNM. Fairmount, founded in 1998, is headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio and the majority of its projects are located within college- and university-based communities. According to Fairmount’s website, the company works primarily within the context of public or private partnerships, working with municipalities, colleges and universities to create these types of developments.

LETTER
How about we make it harder to marry? Editor, I recently heard that some of our politicians want to make divorce illegal. It is true we have a high divorce rate, but that is not the real problem. The real problem is too many get married before they are mature enough to be able to determine who is a good person for them to plan on spending the rest of their life with. The sensible way to reduce the divorce rate is to make it much harder for people to get married. Maybe we could do that by requiring a couple who thinks they want to get married to have to have the approval of a competent counselor to do so after they have been seeing that same counselor once a week for at least six months. Personally, I am convinced there has MARCH 16, 2011 to be a better solution to the high divorce rate than this, but it was the best one I could think of and I do think it would reduce the divorce rate. I hope somebody else has a better solution to the fact that far too many people get married before they are really able to determine who will be a good person for them to marry.

Science fiction robots and the ancient mysticism of Tarot cards don’t typically overlap — but anything’s possible to animator and Albuquerque freelance artist Peter Hague. “I love the style of retro-future robots,” Hague said. “Like what people in the 1950s thought the future was going to look like … It’s always kind of cracked me up and it was an inspiration for the project.” Hague created Robo Tarot, a robot-inspired Tarot deck, two-anda-half years ago with concepts for just three cards: The Lovers, The Devil and The Hierophant. In response to demand, Hague released further Tarot designs until he had completed some two dozen cards — far more than he had initially anticipated. “But everyone would ask me, ‘Where’s the deck? Do you have a deck?’ and I’d say, ‘No way, that’s like 80 cards. I’m not going to do that … too much work,’” Hague said. “And then, you know, six months later … I have a deck.” After printing the cards on T-shirts and a fine art paper called giclée, Hague began selling full decks for $50 and the major arcana cards for $20 online and at places around Albuquerque, such as Stranger Factory, to considerable success. “Peter has a really strong narrative with the Robo Tarot series,” said Mikee Riggs, merchandise director of the Stranger Factory.

“The whole mystical and technical thing is a really cool amalgam. And his stuff is so hot it’s impossible to not sell,” he said. A typical Tarot deck is made up of 78 cards and divided into two parts: the minor arcana, which consists of four suits (pentacles, swords, wands and cups) of 14 cards (ace through king). The major arcana consists of 22 trump cards, such as The Fool. Tarot decks were first created in the mid15th century to play various card games, but today they’re primarily used by people seeking to define life’s mysteries.
“I was thinking of a weapon that could dismantle a robot and figured a screwdriver was a pretty good way to go.” ~Peter Hague freelance artist
The trump cards are traditionally rich with symbolism, and Hague — despite knowing very little about Tarot when he first began the project — learned what each card represented so he could incorporate appropriate elements into his card designs. “Sometimes it’s very literal and silly,” Hague said. “The Lovers is a robot holding a nut and a bolt … like getting ready to put them together. But the Hierophant is a Pope robot that’s bringing the gospel of the ‘Almighty Battery’ to the masses … and that design ties into more of the traditional card’s meaning.”
The Robo Tarot’s minor arcana cards are also thematically robotic, but retain some of their original identity: The pentacles are pentagram-engraved gears, the wands are electrical fuses, the cups are oil funnels and the swords are screwdrivers. “I was thinking of a weapon that could dismantle a robot and figured a screwdriver was a pretty good way to go,” Hague said. Hague, 34, grew up in a strict religious household where practices such as Tarot were considered taboo. But with Robo Tarot, as well as Hague’s other projects, he said his art style has deviated from his upbringing. Hague calls himself “a big nerd at heart” and cites video games, anime and comic books as his primary influences growing up and becoming an artist. “It’s one of those cliché stories, but it started as a competition against my cousin who was really awesome at drawing … and it kind of evolved from there,” Hague said. “The animated film ‘Akira’ changed my life, and that’s a cliché term too, but it really did. The subject and content matter were horrific but incredible, and the quality of the animation still holds up today … in a lot of ways it opened my eyes to what I could potentially do with my art.” Learn more about Robo Tarot at: facebook.com/robo.tarot Robo Tarot can be purchased at: etsy.com/shop/robotarot
