APRIL 6, 2018
Four instances of indecent exposure in Zimmerman By Kyle Land Libraries at the University of New Mexico are usually thought of as safe places for students to study and access resources. For some students, though, this has been anything but true. Since the beginning of this semester, there have been at least four instances of indecent exposure — individuals intentionally exposing their genitals in public — in Zimmerman Library, only three of which were officially reported. All four of these incidents involved a subject publicly masturbating within the library. These incidents took place on Jan. 24, Jan. 25, Feb. 11 and April 1, according to a list of incidents compiled by library staff, as well as an interview with one victim conducted by the Daily Lobo. According to Cindy Pierard, director of Access Services at the College of University Libraries and Learning Sciences, none of these incidents involved any physical contact between subjects and students. Two of the four incidents may have involved the same subject. On Jan. 24, one student, who requested to remain anonymous, said she was sitting at a desk in the West Wing in Zimmerman Library when a man sat down right across from her after circling around the desks for a while. “I thought he was just looking for a spot to study,” she said. She described the subject as a balding, middle-aged AfricanAmerican man wearing a large chain with a picture of Jesus Christ on it. Five minutes after he sat down, the student noticed that the man was touching himself sexually. “He started to masturbate directly in front of me while looking at me,” she said. She said she remained at her seat for a while, because she was unsure if she was actually seeing what she thought she was — she noticed that the man was focusing on her the whole time. After a few minutes, when she stood up to leave, the subject immediately got up and ran out of the building. She said she did not report the incident to the library or the
said. “I couldn’t find the words.” Samora said she debated whether or not to draw attention to the man to let other people around know what was happening — the library was very crowded that day. Instead, she went straight to the security guard at the front desk and informed them of the situation. When she and the security guard returned to where the incident occurred, the man was gone. Afterward, Samora gave the security guard a description of the subject. She said she thought a report would then be filed with UNMPD. When she called UNMPD five days later, she found that no report had been filed with the department. “I was kind of really angry that the police station at UNM had no idea that happened,” she said. Pierard said no report was filed, in part because Zimmerman Library never received the victim’s name. Samora said she gave the security guard her name and email address after the incident occurred. On Jan. 30, Samora filed a police report with UNMPD. Officer Patricia Young, an investigator with the Sexual Misconduct and Assault
Response Team, was put on the case. Young said she had a meeting with library staff, where she advised them on how to better handle and prevent such situations. Young said that if library security, which is contracted through an outside company called Securitas, called UNMPD after Samora reported the incident, it could have led to the apprehension of the subject using the description of the individual. Securitas is contracted privately through Zimmerman Library. The officers are not allowed to physically remove any subject from the library themselves, according to Ed Padilla, Facilities Services manager. Padilla said the security officers “are the eyes and ears of UNMPD.” On Feb. 10, a man who matched the descriptions given by Samora and the anonymous student from the previously mentioned incidents was seen in the library, according to a list of incidents compiled by the library. Security alerted UNMPD, but when police arrived, the man had already left. Samora said the incident greatly affected her and that she was only able to return to Zimmerman Library after discussing it with her therapist. “I was crying for multiple days

afterwards,” she said. “I just felt so dirty, like I had brought it on myself by smiling at him.” She also said that, at the time, she did not think indecent exposure was a serious enough crime to feel sad about. “It was around that time when #MeToo was very big,” Samora said. “You would hear all these horrible things that happened to women — I kind of felt like I didn’t have the right to feel as disturbed as I was.” According to Pierard, there are cameras in the lobbies of each floor in Zimmerman and no cameras are placed in the rest of the building, including the West Wing. Pierard said the library is currently looking to expand cameras to this area. Funding has been set aside for more cameras, and the library might receive some in the future, Young said. Pierard and Padilla also said a roving guard walks through all the campus libraries to see if anything is wrong. Pierard added that student employees at the library walk around the building about once an hour. Genevieve Romero, a freshman

UNM Police Department, because she was not entirely sure of what she saw. “I never had a full, clear-on view,” she said. Despite this, she said the incident still affected her, as she has not returned to the West Wing to study since. While she did not file a report, the student said she told library staff and security about the incident sometime in mid-March. Front desk workers told her similar incidents had occurred in the library that semester; however, none of her information was written down by any of the workers, she said. She also said she mentioned the incident to one of the security guards after she a saw a man who resembled the subject using one of the computers. The security guard also did not write down any of her information when she told him about the incident that occurred in January, she said. “(The security guard) looked at me weird like I was a paranoid person,” she said. “You tell somebody and you expect it to be handled, and I don’t think it was at all.” According to Francie Cordova, director of the Office of Equal Opportunity, security guards are subject to all University policies when they are hired, even if they work for an outside company. She said failing to report such an incident could potentially violate OEO policy. Megan Samora, a freshman who permitted the Daily Lobo to use her name, was studying in the West Wing on Jan. 25 when she experienced a similar event. She said that a man, whom she described as middle-aged and African-American with a bald spot and large cross necklace, was wandering around the desks. After they made eye contact and smiled at one another, the man sat down at the desk adjacent to the one Samora was sitting at. After an hour, she said she noticed the man was moving his hand next to his stomach. She said that he must have seen her looking at him, because he then pulled back his shirt, which revealed that he was masturbating. “I just sat there in horror,” she

President Stokes talks about her “firsts” By Shayla Cunico
After being unanimously selected last November, the University of New Mexico’s first female president, Garnett S. Stokes, had her historic moment during the 31st anniversary of Women’s History Month, as she began her term on March 1. Stokes has been a “first” several times, she said. She was a first-generation college student, first permanent female head of psychology at the University of Georgia, the first female dean of the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences at UGA and the first female provost at Florida State University. “I know how much seeing women achieve such high levels of academic leadership has meant to students, staff, faculty and alumni at each of my previous institutions,” she said. “At UNM, it seems to be even more special. I have had so many people express their genuine excitement to see a woman in such an important
leadership role in the state.” Erin Kerwin, a third year psychology major, said it’s about time UNM had its first female president. “A woman was finally chosen, because she was better for the job,” Kerwin said. “It’s significant…It shows progress.” Stokes said younger girls feel liberated by seeing women in powerful leadership positions. “It helps young girls expand their thinking about what their own careers and lives can look like — there is an empowerment that comes from knowing what is possible,” Stokes said. Having women in such roles “normalizes success for (young women) and shows them how successful they can be and the success that they should be able to reach,” Kerwin said. Stokes said she has always derived influence from other women. Growing up, she was influenced by her mother as well as women she saw on television and became

inspired by female political leaders, she said. “I can see clearly the extent to which characteristics and strengths that I learned from my mother have been instrumental to my success,” Stokes said. “I also had a very close friend, Dr. Rosanne Lorden, who I went to graduate school with and who was a few years older than me, who had a big impact on me.” Stokes plans on spending her first few weeks at UNM getting to know campus, but she doesn’t have any definitive plans except for getting to know the several external and internal constituents that love the University, she said. “This is a wonderful University, and I am sure over the course of the next several months, I will be launching some initiatives designed to enhance the experience and success of our students, support our faculty and staff and strengthen UNM’s ties to Albuquerque and throughout New Mexico,” she said. “It’s too early to be too definitive,

because I need to listen to the community and make sure I understand the areas of greatest need.” Stokes’ advice to students is: education is life-changing in sometimes unforeseen ways and may open doors that are often unexpected. “Our students are the future,”

Athletics and why I still believe in UNM By Kyle Land @kyleoftheland To say that morale is low at the University of New Mexico would be a dramatic understatement. Following the Board of Regents’ approval of eliminating four sports from the University, including the successful and beloved men’s soccer program, feelings toward New Mexico’s flagship institution have soured beyond recognition. In many ways, it’s not hard to see why. The regents, Athletic Director Eddie Nuñez and President Garnett Stokes are, by their own admission, fixing the administrative problems of the University with solutions that ultimately punish students, whether or
not that was their intention. That, combined with rising tuition and decreasing lottery scholarships, has led many to become jaded toward UNM as a whole. However, it is during times like these that we as a community must remind ourselves why we feel so passionate about the wellbeing of our school in the first place. Like New Mexico and the diverse group of people that inhabit it, UNM is unlike any other campus in the country. It possesses an identity all its own, a place that provides so many opportunities to a state continually known for its underserved residents. The fiery response voiced by students and community members alike serves a purpose, but the action we take cannot begin and end
with angry social media posts. We must actively work to better our University, both for us and future generations of Lobos. We as students cannot control the decisions made by the Board of Regents. Many of the factors that went into the decision to cut sports had nothing to do with the wants and needs of students, but everything to do with staying in a conference many students don’t even know exists. Losing Lobo sports is difficult, especially for the athletes who dedicated so much time to their respective teams, but this does not mean that students are unable to change their university for the better. You can talk to your ASUNM or GPSA senators and president, who hold more power than you
may think, and let them know of the change you’d like to see. Believe me, if enough people come out and speak their mind, they will listen. Better yet, you can serve on your student government and play a more active role in shaping the future of UNM. You also can write to your New Mexico state legislators, demanding that the government create legislation geared toward the betterment of students across the state (there are no shortage of higher education bills during each legislative session). Students can also create organizations and clubs aimed at fostering a greater community at UNM through common interests. It’s these kinds of groups that often define one’s time at college, not only by expressing your individual interests, but also creating
a student body actively involved in their school. In short, students, faculty and community members have many different ways of creating a University of New Mexico that serves the interest of the people who fund it in the first place. I’ve seen how much Lobos of all generations care about UNM, and it is because of them that I still believe in UNM, in spite of it all. Through the darkness, we will come out the other side a better university, because we put in the effort to make it that way. Kyle Land is the the Editor-inChief of the Daily Lobo.

Column: Reconciling faith with LGBTQ identity By Gabriella Rivera
In early December of last year, I kissed a girl for the first time. It felt, among all the usual things associated with a kiss, as wholly natural as my first kiss with a guy years ago. I had been dimly aware that I was not straight, but attracted to both sexes since my years in Catholic high school — it wasn’t until college that I consciously acknowledged it. By this time, I felt ready to tell my family, and from there, others. I remember thinking Christmas might be a good time. Instead, I came out publicly Ash Wednesday of this year, which happened to fall on Valentine’s Day, after having told my family a couple days earlier. I met a friend, we went to a coffee shop, I made a Facebook post, and closed my laptop to enjoy my drink. I contemplated the responses I might get — the support, the backlash, the confusion. I felt peaceful with my sexuality and at ease knowing that I was no longer hiding it. Mostly importantly, I finally felt a bit of pressure off the intense regret I felt from not telling my dad in time; just before Christmas, my father passed away very suddenly and very unexpectedly, leaving unimaginable

emotional chaos for me and my family to navigate, and giving us the rest of our lives to ponder all the things that we wanted to say to him. My father attended Notre Dame, where he was in the seminary for two years. Although he did not end up pursuing Catholic priesthood, his Catholic faith was something he held dear to him all of his life, and something he passed onto his family with passion, but never with force. As a result, my sisters and I were always happily involved with our church and genuinely connected to our faith. Despite his deep devotion to the Church, my dad never hesitated to break with Catholic religious teaching when it conflicted with his personal faith. LGBTQ issues were among these breaks.
In various roles at UNM, he helped push policies like the preferred name initiative, and published articles on the topic, like a recent one on the plights of trans homeless youth of color. He spent his life and his career following the principles formed by his faith, not handed to him by a branded religion. Confiding my regret to a friend after his passing, I remember her saying that he probably would have thrown a party to celebrate if I had gotten to tell him. For me, even if dictionaries might use them interchangeably, faith and religion differ. When I think of religion, I think of the written rules and histories of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, etc. I think of dogma, recitation, sacraments, traditions. When I think of faith, I think
of individual spirituality and your personal connection to the higher power you believe in. I think of genuine prayer, personal reflection, and the formation of a belief system and code of morality unique only to you. Reconciling your LGBTQ identity with your religion may take years of gradual change and generations of activism, which I absolutely encourage you get involved in as I truly believe LGBTQ rights align with the core principles of every major religion. With Catholicism, I believe the Church will eventually come to find that the dogma surrounding LGBTQ issues was created because of societal attitudes on the issue much more than it was grounded on actual theology. Religious establishments are extremely resistant to change, but progress has been made, and will continue to be. Reconciling your LGBTQ identity with your faith, however, is something you can start working on today, whether you came out years ago or can’t fathom coming out any time soon. It begins with deciding for yourself that your creator did not make a mistake when she made you gay, or transgender, or queer, or however you identify. A large part of this comes from your own conscience, an important
concept especially in Catholicism. For me, it never felt for a moment that who I am is wrong in God’s eyes. Concealing her creation felt like a much greater sin. My coming out post concluded, “This Lenten season, I resolve to begin letting love occupy the places I’ve always housed fear.” I haven’t fully accomplished that, as I still fear attracting hate from many angles as I move forward in my life and career, and I especially still fear that the Catholic community I love might turn its back on me. But under that post, instead of seeing disappointment and negativity from conservative friends and their parents, and from old clergy, teachers and faculty from the Catholic schools I attended, the comments reflected only love and support. I encourage you to give your faith community the benefit of the doubt. I encourage you to reconcile yourself to your identity first, so that any disapproval you encounter from family, friends and society are met with peace and not uncertainty. I especially encourage you to pray, and trust that while people may cite religion to fuel their hate, the god you believe in finds no fault in you.

Men’s Basketball: SDSU ends Lobo run By Robert Maler It was a good run — probably a surprising one to many — but the University of New Mexico men's basketball team came up a bit short in its quest to win the Mountain West Championship and a chance to dance its way into the NCAA Tournament. New Mexico entered the conference tournament as one of the hottest teams in the league boasting a season-high five-game winning streak. But after posting two more wins to make it to the championship round, that streak came to an end on Saturday afternoon — as the Lobos fell to the only team that had a longer win streak. San Diego State won its final six regular season games and capped things off by winning three games in three days at the Thomas & Mack Center to become the new champions of the Mountain West, holding off the Lobos by a final score of 82-75. UNM head coach Paul Weir said he felt the Lobos played a pretty good game, but that the reality was it was probably going to take a great game to beat San Diego State. He said he took notice of the talent the Aztecs had on the squad prior to the start of the season. "When I went to Mountain West Conference media days and I saw those guys walking around,
I thought to myself 'This is an impressive looking team,'" Weir said. "They have a tremendous group of players." But the Lobos had some pretty impressive players as well and the teams seemed to match up pretty well on paper heading into the matchup. New Mexico and San Diego State took similar paths to get to the Mountain West finals, with each school notching convincing double-digit victories in the quarter and semifinal rounds. And each team featured a senior guard who had the ability to take over a game at any time — both of whom seemed hungry to keep their postseason hopes alive. SDSU turned the ball over on the opening possession of the game, which led to a Vladimir Pinchuk layup for the first score of the game. A few minutes later, Lobo senior guard Antino Jackson stole the ball, driving in for a layup to give his team an early 10-2 lead. But the Aztecs quickly came storming back, meeting little resistance on drives to the hoop and claiming their first lead, a 13-12 advantage at the 13:46 mark. And the momentum continued to bounce back and forth between the two squads in a game that saw six ties and 11 lead changes, though San Diego State played from ahead for most of the contest. The Aztecs pushed their lead
to 29-23 with just under five minutes remaining in the half, but the Lobos responded with back-toback 3-pointers from Jackson and junior guard Anthony Mathis to knot things up. New Mexico was able to use the deep ball to its advantage in the first half, making 6-of-11 from long range, but trailed 39-38 heading into the locker room. The teams traded shots and leads in the opening minutes of the second half, but the Lobos began to inch ahead at around the midway point. Senior Joe Furstinger nailed a jumper from around the free throw line to give UNM a one-point lead. Jackson increased the advantage when he followed his own miss for a put back score — getting fouled in the process. He hit the ensuing free throw, giving the Lobos a 59-55 edge with 9:43 remaining in the game. The senior guard seemed to have given UNM the shot of adrenaline it needed and the Lobos pushed the margin to six points on a couple of occasions in the following minutes. But it was San Diego State’s Trey Kell who stole the show, rising to the occasion to score 21 second-half points — including nine points in the final 5:01 of the game to turn what was a onepoint game into something that proved to be insurmountable. The Lobos had no answer for Kell, who posted a game-high 28
points on 10-of-16 shooting. He helped engineer the comeback charge, dishing out an assist to Jeremy Helmsey, who knocked down a 3-pointer to put the Aztecs up by one point, 63-62, at the 6:46 mark. Later Kell increased the lead to three points on a pull-up jumper and although he only hit one 3-pointer in the game — it was a big one — making the score 71-65 with under three minutes to play. And the 3-point shot that was working so well for the Lobos in the first half, abandoned them when they needed it most. UNM went 2-of-13 in the second half from beyond the arc and the team struggled to score over those final three minutes — making just one shot during that time frame. The Lobos cut the lead to four on a couple of occasions, but could not get any closer. The clock started to become and issue and when UNM was forced to foul, San Diego State answered by knocking down some big free throws to close the door and earn the 82-75 victory. The Aztecs dominated both in scoring in the paint and from the free throw line. They seemed to get to the hoop with relative ease, and although the Lobos altered some shots, the Aztecs still score 38 points in the lane and went an impressive 21-of-29 from the charity stripe. UNM actually shot a better percentage from the foul line, but had far less opportunities, going
15-of-17 on their attempts. Jackson led the way for New Mexico with 17 points, pacing five Lobos who ended up in double figures. Anthony Mathis tallied 13 points, but continued to struggle shooting the deep ball, where he went just 2-of-7. Furstinger chipped in 12, while Sam Logwood and Troy Simons ended up with 11 points apiece. New Mexico failed to the 10 made 3-pointer benchmark for the third straight game, after it had done so in the previous 12 straight games. And although the Lobos had won back-to-back games in the Mountain West tournament despite, the trend did not continue on Saturday. Part of the reason the Lobos won the first two games of the MW tournament despite the absence of the 3-point shot, was due to out-rebounding their opponents, but San Diego State won the battle on the boards by a margin of 36-30. The win likely ended any postseason hopes for New Mexico, which was not selected in the 2018 National Invitational Tournament field. San Diego State was awarded the No. 11 seed in the West Region and will face sixth-seeded Houston in its first-round matchup on March 15.

BREAKING: Keller becomes Albuquerque’s next mayor By Kyle Land and Madison Spratto Over 96,000 Albuquerque residents exercised their right to vote in the mayoral runoff election Tuesday — a race that was decided in under just one hour. Democrat Timothy “Tim” Keller claimed 62 percent of the votes, making him the next mayor of Albuquerque. His opponent, Republican Daniel “Dan” Lewis, only managed 37 percent. “The early vote numbers look encouraging,” said Elizabeth “Liz” Keller after the polls officially closed at 7 p.m. Shortly after she left the stage, it was announced that Keller won the race. “For the second time, Albuquerque has spoken,” Keller said in his victory speech. “And this time it was loud and clear.” In the initial election on Oct. 3, no one received 50 percent of the votes necessary to take home the win that night. Keller came away with about 40 percent, and Lewis finished second with 23 percent, resulting in a runoff election. Hundreds of Keller supporters gathered at Hotel Andaluz in Downtown Albuquerque Tuesday night to watch the election results live. The watch party had an atmosphere that closely resembled a concert — music blared, the crowd was shoulder-to-shoulder and all eyes were waiting to see the special guest, Keller himself. Keller said a night like Tuesday is one of those “rare points in

Being in a room full of people who supported him throughout his campaign, both strangers and people who have known him his entire life, is something he said he will never forget. “It feels like the vision we had for this city was totally correct,” said Jessie Lane Hunt, Keller’s campaign manager, when asked

how she felt after the win. Keller said his win marks the beginning of a generational shift in Albuquerque, because he is closer to his college years than the end of his career — that’s the first time a mayor has been able to say that in about 20 years, he said. “I’m really happy I was late to my studio class to vote for (Keller),” said Makayra Yeager, a freshman at the University of New Mexico majoring in music education. “It was
definitely worth it.” Lewis’ watch party had a somber mood as the supporters tried to hold onto hope before he made his concession speech. Just before 8 p.m. Lewis addressed the crowd, commended Keller on the win and thanking his supporters for their votes and efforts throughout his campaign. “I want to congratulate Tim Keller on the win,” Lewis said opening up his speech. “I’m (going
to) continue to work hard as a businessman in this city.” Lewis’ supporters were flooded with disappointment over the early loss. “It was an uphill battle from the very beginning,” said Bronson Reyes, an Albuquerque realtor and Lewis supporter. Stewart Bragg, Lewis’ campaign manager, said he could not be more proud of him. “I’m absolutely honored to be a part of (his campaign),” he said. Former mayoral candidate Gus Pedrotty said Tuesday night was a continuation of Oct. 3. “With races, there’s a winner and there’s a set of losers, and especially being among them you understand that now is a time to come together again,” Pedrotty said. “It’s exciting to see that we can consolidate and move forward with ideas.” Keller was not the only Democrat to win on Tuesday. Cynthia Borrego won the City Council District 5 election over Robert Aragon with 54 percent of the votes. The election of Borrego gives Democrats the majority in a nonpartisan City Council, which could potentially ensure that Keller has a veto-proof council if members vote along party lines. “I know we are going to do the best job possible,” said Borrego addressing the crowd during the Keller watch party. As his speech closed, Keller said his work as the new mayor of Albuquerque would begin as soon as possible. “Tonight we celebrate — tomorrow we get to work,” he said.

Freshmen required to live on campus starting Fall 2018 By Anthony Jackson Beginning in the Fall 2018 semester, incoming freshman living more than 30 miles from campus will be required to live on campus, with some exceptions. Students are exempt if they: • Live with a parent, guardian or family member less than 30 miles from campus. • Are at least 20 years old at the beginning of their freshman year. • Are domestically partnered, married or have children. • Have a medical disability. • A cultural sensitivity or associated concern. • Have an undue hardship interfering ability to attend. This requirement was approved by the Board of Regents in Fall 2016 after the Office of Enrollment shared a report in May of 2015 that found students living on campus have better grades and higher graduation rates. The Board of Regents decided not to require this until the Fall 2018 semester to “prepare for…the implementation of it,” said Theresa Acker, the supervisor for Residence
Life and Student Housing. “I think for incoming freshman this will be a great opportunity for them to really do better in school — the information from the report shows that,” she said. Acker said by providing different resources, “conveniences are there” that attribute to a student’s success. “When you’re close to class, it’s hard not to go to class, but when you live off campus, the parking and the commute time all adds up, so it’s very easy to say, ‘No, I’m not going to class today,’” she said. The average cost of student housing is $559 per month, with amenities like Wi-Fi and laundry facilities. The average cost of living off campus in the Albuquerque metro area is $650, but Tacker said “financial hardship” is an exemption from the new requirement. The University does not plan to extend the requirement to students living in the metro area, but roughly one-third of residents are from the Albuquerque metro area, she said. Acker said she does not expect thousands of students will be affected by this requirement, but estimates that the University will receive up to 400 additional students between on-

The LoboAlerts system, explained By Kyle Land
If you have been either a student or faculty member at the University of New Mexico long enough, there is no doubt that you have received more than a fair share of LoboAlerts. Whether it concerns groping, robbery, assault or a myriad of other issues that require notification, LoboAlerts provides the information needed to keep the UNM campus safe and aware. But how does this system actually function? What is the process from the time an incident occurs to the moment students and faculty receive the text? There are those who feel the timeliness of alerts could be improved. The Daily Lobo recently received a letter to the editor, in
which UNM staff member Brian Vineyard lamented about how LoboAlerts on certain crimes, specifically a robbery that occurred at Golden Pride, were received hours after the event took place. He also said he wondered why he received alerts by email faster than he did by text. “Something really needs to be done about the timeliness of (LoboAlerts), or lack thereof,” Vineyard wrote. There are many factors that can affect the time it takes to send an alert to the public, making each instance completely unique to all those that preceded it. The process of issuing an alert first begins when police dispatch sends an officer to the scene of the reported crime. From there, the officer will make a determination as
to whether or not a LoboAlert is required, said Lt. Tim Stump of the University of New Mexico Police Department. “Every call is different, (therefore) every call is assessed differently,” Stump said. One major factor officers must consider is the nature of the crime committed and if the suspect involved still poses a potential risk to those on campus. UNMPD currently keeps a list of several crimes that require an alert, such as robbery, aggravated assault or hate crimes, he said. However, Stump made it clear that this list does not represent the totality of crimes that can qualify for LoboAlerts. “If a crime occurs that’s not on the list that we feel puts the campus in imminent danger, then we’ll
send out an alert,” he said. Potential delays can also be caused due to a lack of concrete information. Once an officer obtains all the necessary information, however long that takes, then an alert can be sent out, he said. Once the incident is reported, UNMPD upper command will send out the alert, which can be received by text, email or on Twitter. As for why someone might receive the alert on one platform faster than another, UNM Emergency Manager Byron Piatt said it could relate to issues with the user’s cell phone, such as a low battery that causes the phone to receive texts at a slower rate. Piatt also said that whether or not a suspect’s ethnicity is included in an alert depends entirely upon if the victim disclosed that information in the police report.
The quality of the LoboAlerts system is maintained through tests made in conjunction with the campus’ warning siren. This test takes place three times a year, Piatt said. As for any possible changes to the system, both Piatt and Stump said they were satisfied with the current format, citing examples of gropers and robbers that have been arrested as a result of the alerts. “Because students are aware… we’ve been able to apprehend suspects,” Stump said. “We believe it meets the necessity of getting the alerts out.” So, for now, the LoboAlert system will remain intact, ready to alert the UNM population when need be — but hopefully not too often.

Lottery Scholarship funding might face further cuts By Madison Spratto The Lottery Scholarship could be facing more defunding this week. The Lottery Foundation is lobbying to decrease funding Tuesday, according to a press release from the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico Director of Communications Noah Michelsohn. In 2017, the Lottery Scholarship, which benefits around 26,000 students a year statewide, decreased from covering 90 percent of tuition to 60 percent. Currently, 30 percent of the net revenue from the New Mexico lottery is allotted to the Lottery Scholarship,
which includes ticket sales. An increase in lottery ticket purchases could bolster the scholarship, but a decrease in these purchases would cause the scholarship to suffer, Michelsohn said. Instead, if the bill is passed, the foundation would allot a flat rate of $38 million to the scholarship fund per year regardless of how successful the lottery is, said Royce Deller, director of the ASUNM Governmental Affairs agency. If the Lottery Foundation cannot make the $38 million mark toward the scholarship, due to a major decrease in ticket sales, the foundation would only be required to allocate 30 percent of lottery revenue, Michelsohn said.
W E L C O M E
lobolife.unm.edu
Over the past five years, the total amount allotted to the scholarship has averaged $42 million per year, Deller said. There could be a potential $4 million decrease if the bill is successful and the trend continues. The lowest amount of funding granted to the scholarship fund in 10 years was in 2017 when $37.8 million was allocated to the Lottery Scholarship. With the $38 million cap proposal, the scholarship would have seen a loss of $9 million in 2016, Deller said. “There’s no reason for a big cut,” Michelsohn said. Aside from last year, the Lottery Foundation’s revenue has been
steady and growing, he said. If passed, the scholarship would dip from covering 60 percent of tuition to around 48 to 50 percent, he said. The introduction of a financial cap would support the trend of decreasing funds for the Lottery Scholarship, which affects student enrollment rates, Michelsohn said. “The lower the enrollment UNM has, the more we have to raise tuition. The more tuition raises, the less and less the Lottery Scholarship covers…until only a slight few are able to go to college,” he said. The bill was not pre-filed, meaning it has not been available for the public to view, but

Michelsohn said a lobbyist supporting the cap contacted ASUNM looking for student support, which ASUNM did not give. ASUNM President Noah Brooks and Vice President Sally Midani are going to Santa Fe Tuesday to advocate against the bill to protect Lottery Scholarship recipients from even more financial turmoil, Michelsohn said. “This is the fifth year (the Lottery Foundation is) trying to do this,” he said. “This year there seems to be a little more support on their side.”

UNM employee terminated for embezzlement By Elizabeth Sanchez
Alma Rosa Silva-Banuelos, the University of New Mexico LGBTQ Resource Center’s program specialist, has been terminated by the Office of Academic Affairs, following a UNM Internal Auditing Department review of the center’s financial transactions and travel. Since January 2016, SilvaBanuelos started “raising red flags” with purchases on her Universityissued Purchasing Card, former Vice President for Equity and Inclusion Dr. Jozi De Leon said in an email to Silva-Banuelos. P-Cards are issued to UNM employees for the purpose of making purchases on behalf of the University that do not exceed $10,000 for approved transactions for goods, materials and supplies, or $5,000 for transactions of approved services, according to the P-Card page on UNM’s website. In De Leon’s email, she called the travel “excessive,” questioning whether it is necessary for more than one or two individuals to participate in trips. De Leon stated that Silva-Banuelos needed to preapprove all travel with her. According to the internal audit, there were unallowable and questioned costs concerning trips to Havana, Cuba; Ojo Caliente, New

who works in Zimmerman Library, said problems in the library do not only include indecent exposures. “A lot of us that work (at the library) are women, and we get people up at the desk all the time that are inappropriate or intoxicated,” Romero said. She detailed an incident that occurred when a man repeatedly attempted to touch her while she was working. She said that, due to these incidents, the library should be closed to the general public, because “a line has been crossed.” Pierard said she is hesitant to close the libraries to the public, because they are funded by taxpayer dollars. She also said that outside
Mexico; Bangkok, Thailand; and Standing Rock, North Dakota. The trips to Ojo Caliente and Standing Rock were made without the required pre-approval. Her trip to Bangkok was cancelled, because it was not pre-approved. Silva-Banuelos also made purchases at Smith’s grocery store using her P-Card. “Some of the purchases made at Smith’s are questionable and look like someone’s grocery list,” De Leon said in the email. “There should be a certain safeguarding principle in spending when the majority of your funding is coming from the (Student Fee Review Board). These are precious student fee dollars, and it is especially important that management of those dollars are never brought into question.” Silva-Banuelos’ activities also include purchases at local restaurants. She claimed these were part of a student advocacy training; however the audit determined there were no business purposes for the luncheons. There were also alleged P-Card delays at this time. During the fall of 2016, SilvaBanuelos requested $100,000 from the Garrett Lee Smith Campus Suicide Prevention Grant for use at the LGBTQ Resource Center’s new space at the UNM Gallup Campus.
The funds were intended to be used for building rent, travel/mileage costs and to pay Main Campus staff for their time spent in Gallup. According to one of the emails in a lengthy chain with few responses from Silva-Banuelos, the grant submission was denied, because “there was not adequate time to pull everything together as well as that Dr. De Leon does not have enough information about the cost share to comfortably commit to it. Dr. De Leon has conveyed that it is feasible to consider the work already accomplished to partner on a future submission.” Silva-Banuelos was placed on administrative leave pending the audit investigation. On May 12, 2017 Silva-Banuelos was issued a Notice of Contemplated Action for insubordination, violation of P-Card policy, misappropriation of University funds and committing dishonest and fraudulent activities. At the time of publication, both De Leon and the UNM LGBTQ Resource Center preferred not to comment. Subsequent to the audit, De Leon has left UNM and is currently a staff member at California Polytechnic State University. A University statement reported that Lawrence Roybal will serve as UNM’s Acting Vice President for the Division of Equity and
researchers often use UNM libraries for their work. Both Samora and Romero expressed frustrations that LoboAlerts were not sent out for any of the three reported indecent exposures that took place this semester. “We get LoboAlerts when women get groped outside the bookstore…How come we don’t get any information when it happens inside the library?” Romero said. Byron Piatt, emergency manager at UNM, said LoboAlerts are only sent out when there is a “continuing threat” on campus that would disrupt the normal
operations of the University. He said the LoboAlert system is not meant to send out alerts for every criminal act on campus. “It’s not a news service — it’s an emergency alert service,” Piatt said. Samora said if UNMPD had been contacted by library security and sent out a LoboAlert, the subject might have been captured. Romero said outside groups, such as the Associated Students of UNM could assist in making the libraries safer for students. The Budget Leadership Team, which a member of ASUNM sits on, recommended an increase in tuition, in part to improve campus safety. The tuition increase

Inclusion, which oversees the LGBTQ Center. “(Roybal) is working to ensure that the center provides safety, education, advocacy and support for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning students at UNM as well as offers resources and services through outreach to the UNM community,” according to the statement. Roybal also released a statement to the Daily Lobo, saying, “We are
committed to ensuring that we provide for the safety, education, advocacy and support for our committed students as well as offering valuable resources and important services through outreach throughout UNM and the community alongside our dedicated staff, faculty, alumni and allies.”
was approved by the Board of Regents at the Budget Summit on March 22. According to Noah Michelsohn, director of communications for ASUNM, there are currently no plans to improve safety within the libraries, adding that of the extra capital outlay they did receive, around $50,000 will go toward LED lighting in A-Lot and around the Duck Pond. Michelsohn said ASUNM would look into safety in the libraries “if students are highlighting that as a priority.” Both Samora and the anonymous student said UNM could greatly improve how these instances are handled
in terms of prevention and reporting. Samora also said the nature of the crime, which was not physical, does not mean that it was not a crime. “Even though it was just him exposing himself to me, it doesn’t lessen the effect it had,” she said. “I feel that there should be (more) done in order to protect students.” Pierard said there is no time limit on filing a report, and students are always free to talk to library staff about any issue they may have while in the library. She also said she apologizes if any student felt that their voice was silenced.

Nonprofit supports homeless for kindness holiday By Anthony Jackson University of New Mexico alumnus Ryan Evans, spent his Saturday participating in National Random Acts of Kindness Day and giving back to Albuquerque. Evans and 10 other volunteers involved in Heart of Albuquerque (HOA) — a nonprofit organization — distributed over 100 sacked lunches to homeless and struggling community members in Downtown Albuquerque. National Random Acts of Kindness Day is not his first time volunteering. He has also volunteered in food drives and in classrooms discussing college prep-plans. Evans said volunteering means to “give your time and energy to people who don’t have the same things as you do and to give back to the community.” The volunteers range in age from eight to 53. Lunches consisted of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, chips, apples, oranges, peanuts, and juice or water — volunteers also distributed hygiene kits consisting of
toothbrushes and toothpaste. HOA cofounder Nicole Mestas helped start the nonprofit two years ago. She said the world is a rough place, and people need help from time to time. “People are suffering. People are sleeping outside in the cold, while others are living as rich as they possibly can. We all have to come together,” she said. The group walked more than 25 blocks up and down Central Avenue, providing necessities that were almost always accepted when offered. Michael Hastcoat, faces struggles, but not with food — bound to a wheelchair, he struggles with interactions with other homeless individuals. “Somebody has to be really stupid not to eat. There are too many places to get free food, but it’s not the food and stuff I worry about — it’s all the little (things),” he said. Hastcoat is a two-time victim of theft and used to live in a motel, he said. He now finds himself living in the streets after violating violating the motel’s rules by inviting other vagrants to stay with him. “I let some people stay with me, because...it’s cold outside at night.
Need to sell a car?
I got thrown out because of that,” he said. Fall of 2017, Albuquerque city councilors passed the Pedestrian Safety Ordinance, which aims to deter motorists from interacting with panhandlers on sidewalks or medians. Sarah Lopez, a volunteer, was afraid that this ordinance will restrict the organization’s ability to go “where (they) go down the freeway and give stuff at every light.” On Feb. 13, Albuquerque city councilors agreed to not enforce the anti-panhandling ordinance after the American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit against the City of Albuquerque to appeal the measure on Jan. 11, according to an ACLU press release. Lopez said she wants to help the less fortunate and give them what they need. As of January 2017, there are more than 1,300 homeless people, and more than 180 homeless children, living in Albuquerque, according to a survey by the New Mexico Coalition to End Homelessness. Mestas said seeing homeless children weighs on her the most.

Vanessa Koller pulls a wagon full of food through Downtown Albuquerque, stopping to hand out snacks to homeless people on Feb. 17, 2018.
“It breaks my heart to see the little kids out here and when it’s freezing cold at night…You know that they’re suffering,” she said. But Mestas gets past that pain by doing “something to help it.” Evans does not find that the work weighs on him, but he said he wants to see more psychiatric and medical help provided for the homeless.
He said he wants to return to UNM to become a dentist, providing dental care to homeless citizens. “I could come back and organize dental days where we offer free dental care...oral hygiene classes (and) get something like that organized once a month within (Heart of Albuquerque),” he said.

UNM opens renovated engineering center By Tasawar Shah The University of New Mexico’s Main Campus, like many other university campuses in the country, has been home to various innovative research-oriented sophisticated buildings that differ in their style, design and facilities. Main Campus presents a range of architectural styles, from the Pueblo Revivalist styled Mesa Vista Hall to modern, high-tech architectural design of the Collaborative Teaching and Learning Building. The University recently added a high-tech, energy-efficient and environmentally conscious engineering building to the list. The Farris Engineering Center (FEC) opened last month after nearly 18 months of construction and renovation. The renovated center houses the School of Engineering’s Chemical and Biological Engineering, Computer Science and Nuclear Engineering Departments.
The $25.5 million building is one of the newest and more conceptually high-tech-designed buildings on campus that provides faculty, staff and student offices, server rooms, waiting areas outside faculty offices, conference and meeting rooms and event space for the three departments. Adnan Bashir, a computer science graduate student, said the FEC is one of the few, if not the most, environmentally conscious buildings at UNM. “This center seems, though not exactly, kind of the first and only ‘passive’ (buildings) at the campus, meaning it uses little energy to light and heat the interior,” Bashir said. The most noticeable differences between the old and the renovated buildings, other than high-tech facilities, are the glassy outlook, large windows, the exterior and interior design, natural light, modern furniture and proxy card entrance. The old building had very small windows and little sunlight.
“The old building was not a good place to work. It was awful,” said Abhaya K. Datye, the chair of the Chemical & Biochemical Engineering Department. Keeping in mind the old small windows, the design team for the renovated building has introduced large electrochromic windows that electronically lighten and darken to manage sunlight without impeding the views of the campus. “The beauty of it is now that we can look outside, get the light, but hopefully not be bothered by the sun,” Datye said. The building also does not have any fumes or chemicals, according to Datye. The FEC has no classrooms or labs, but offices and working and sitting spaces for the faculty, research and adjunct professors, postdoctoral researchers and students. All of the labs from the old building were shifted to Centennial and South Campus during the first phase of the project.

Students talk outside of the recently completed Engineering Center on Jan. 31, 2018.
“The dean is raising money for (UNM’s motorsports engineeringdesign team) Formula SAE, for the mechanical engineers to create a makerspace where engineers can build something,” Datye said, referring to the future of the basement. The new center offers various spaces for students to do group work.
“They have space now to sit and work — this is really a very studentcentric center,” Datye said. The ribbon-cutting ceremony has been planned for March 1 — the day Garnett S. Stokes, the new president of the University, begins her term.

Cirque du Soleil hits the ice in Albuquerque By Nichole Harwood Two men juggled, and a young woman twirled through the air with their colleagues inches away, performing acrobatics — and all on ice. Cirque du Soleil has returned to New Mexico for the fifth time with the show, “Crystal : A Breakthrough Ice Experience,” which premiered Wednesday evening at the Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho. Julie Desmarais, a touring publicist for Cirque du Soleil, said the group trained for 15 weeks prior to their first performance. “There was a lot of exploration to determine what we could do” in terms of bringing their work to the ice, she said. The performers rehearsed their routines Wednesday before the grand premiere. Among them was University of New Mexico alumnus Jason Davenport. Davenport earned his bachelor’s in UNM’s theatre design department. He also performed as a cheerleader at the University to work on some of the physical aspects he later brought to his work in Cirque du Soleil, he said. His path to Cirque du Soleil began when he was earning his graduate degree, auditioned for a show in Las Vegas and accepted the position, he said. He continued to work on three other shows in Las Vegas before he auditioned for Cirque du Soleil. He waited two months before being

called for a one-on-one audition for “The Beatles Love” where it was an immediate fit, he said. Davenport worked “The Beatles Love” for four years before he talked about possibly transferring to a touring show. It was only a week that Davenport had left “The Beatles Love” before he was offered a position with “Crystal,” he said. “(‘Crystal’ is) a lot more fun,” Davenport said. “In Vegas we did a lot of duo acts — it was always me and one other person working on whatever it was. Here, it’s much
more of a team element.” “Crystal” describes itself as not just an ice show, but rather, Cirque du Soleil’s first-ever experience on ice, according to Cirque du Soleil’s website. The new experience was something all performers had to adjust to, as they learned how to perform their acrobatics on ice. Danica Gagnon-Plamondon performed Crystal, the show’s main character. “The ice is something we really haven’t experienced before with
circus,” she said. “So that brings a lot of elements like speed and mixing both worlds. It’s really interesting to see speed skaters and figure skaters. It’s super interesting and fun to play with.” Gagnon-Plamondon is a circus artist from Montreal, Canada who swings trapeze. “Crystal” is her second Cirque du Soleil production. “My act is in the first part of the show, and it comes when Crystal is with her parents and her family, and she feels trapped so she goes on her swing in her
backyard,” Gagnon-Plamondon said. “She starts to fly and have fun, and it is her moment to really shine and be herself.” Although Gagnon-Plamondon had to learn to combine the swinging trapeze with skates, she said it was fun to learn her tricks again with ice skates. “It just brings an element to this apparatus, which is swinging trapeze. It goes up and down, so I can do my trapeze and skate,” she said. Ice skating was not the only talent that premiered on the rink — jugglers, trapeze artists and musicians also added to the experience. The story followed Crystal, who was portrayed by seven different performers. A voice echoed throughout various scenes once stating, "I can write my own joy," as words and images joined skaters. The skaters added humor to their performance, as they held phones up in a parody of taking selfies and handing out flowers to chosen audience members. The performance reached a high point, as Crystal was lifted by trapeze in an act paired with musical compositions. “You’ve got to stand tall — it’s easy to fall, harder to get back up,” the voice echoed right before one of the final acts, as multiple Crystals joined each other on stage. The performance came to a close with the star character skating the words, “the end,” before the audience erupted in cheers.

UNM community reacts to Athletics cuts By Madison Spratto Austin Tyra The final whistle will be blown for four University of New Mexico sports next July. After an emotional four-and-a half hour special Board of Regents meeting, the regents voted unanimously to cut men’s soccer, beach volleyball, women’s diving from the swimming and diving team, and men’s and women’s skiing. As for the 63 student-athletes whose sports have been cut, what’s next is mostly unclear, but disappointment is widespread. Abbey Willison is a sophomore and Albuquerque native who came to UNM to play beach volleyball. She said her team expected the outcome, but they aren’t going to stop fighting. “We love this sport and we’re going to continue to find ways to play it,” Willison said. As for what’s next for Willison, she said it’s hard to say. She said transferring to other schools and finding colleges that will take players is a possibility, but first they will play their final games. “We’re going to play this last year with all we got,” she said. “We’re going to go out with a bang.” The diving component of the swimming and diving team was another sport cut Thursday. Captains Emily Huffer and Talia Passarelli were at the meeting and both expressed frustration. Huffer said there is a lot of misunderstanding surrounding the team and cutting diving will only hurt their program as swimmer’s and diver’s points contribute to the team’s overall score. “It makes no sense for scoring points,” she said. “If they want us to continue to do well in our conference we’re going to be at the bottom of the pile.” Huffer said two Division I

schools that do not have swimming and diving are Washington State and Oregon State, and said they’re at the bottom of the PAC 12 conference because they don’t have divers. “People don’t understand. It’s separate, but we’re scored together,” she said. “It’s two different sports, but it’s one team.” Huffer and Passarelli both said the decision doesn’t make sense, because Title IX compliance is not an issue for the team in their eyes. “I think they have it in their minds that we have to have all these new facilities, and we don’t. We’re perfectly fine,” Huffer said. Both captains are swimmers for the team. Diver Natasha Dark was also there and said the decision was a shock to the team. Going into her junior year this fall semester, Dark said she is unsure what the future holds for her. She said her coach, Julie Weddle, is looking for opportunities and she may follow her to another school. If not, she said she will continue to support the swimming team her final year from the sidelines. “I think I’m just going to enjoy my last year of diving and then for my senior year I’ll just sit out and accept it,” she said. Katharine Irwin, a senior from Colorado on the ski team, spoke about the possible repercussions of cutting the selected sports. “I would love to see what the (Athletics Department’s GPA) is with these teams involved and without the teams,” she said. “I think it’s sending a horrible message to the community that obviously athletic (and academic) excellence don’t mean anything.” The first NCAA championship UNM ever won was by the ski team in 2004. Irwin was on the ski team in Spring 2017, when they were first told their program was going to be

discontinued. That decision was eventually overturned, but at today’s meeting Irwin said, “I didn’t feel the need to speak (to the BOR), I spoke to them last year and said everything I needed to say.” However, Irwin said that she believes this decision will have “bigger fallouts” than if the ski team was discontinued in 2017, because “it is involving men’s soccer, a huge community sport, (and) so many women’s opportunities when we are already so out of line with Title IX compliance.” Several current and past members of Lobo men's soccer spoke about the position the sport has within the local committee, and their determination to continue playing. Anthony Muñoz, an incoming freshman, said that the Lobo soccer players were his heroes, and
told the BOR that the men’s soccer program is “built and driven by success.” Simon Spangenberg, an upcoming senior from Belgium, spoke about his teammates, saying, “They are talented and hard workers, and their back is against the wall now. And they’re not here right now defending themselves. They’re putting on (youth soccer) camps.” Spangenberg went on to discuss his own experiences teaching, reading and writing to young immigrants, and explained that such actions were representative of the impact men’s soccer has on the surrounding community. He then told the BOR to “put a price on that, considering you’re giving all that up for a dollar value.” An online petition to “Save UNM Men’s Soccer” was created
ahead of the BOR decision and has already accrued more than 10,000 signatures at the time of this article. “It's very disheartening, and honestly really difficult that we have been put in this position as a University”, said Becka Meyers, the Associated Students of UNM President. “Of course we don’t want to see sports getting cut, but unfortunately that’s where today left us.” Meyers said the plan continuing forward is to promote conversation and prevent a similar situation from happening again. “I think that athletics does need to meet us halfway, and that it’s important to us to protect the student-athletes that didn’t get their sport cut today,” she said. Meyers also urged students to continue to utilize their voices, and provide input to the BOR during future decisions.
