New Mexico enacts community New Mexico Wild calls solar, commits to energy equity for audit of inactive wells By Nell Johnson @peachnells
More New Mexicans can now opt in to using renewable energy to power their homes after a year of rulemaking done by the Public Regulation Commission. The new Community Solar Rule, passed into law in April 2021 and adopted by the PRC on March 30, 2022, will mandate that 30% of the electricity produced by shared solar facilities be distributed to low-income communities and the organizations that support them. Individuals who may benefit from
this rule include those who qualify for Medicaid or food assistance programs. It also doesn’t limit solar energy options for those who rent the property they live on or for those who live in government-funded housing. Eligible service organizations may include places like homeless shelters or food pantries. Dylan Connelly, director of commercial and community development at Affordable Solar and volunteer at the energy activism group 350 New Mexico, has been closely engaged with community solar and its implementation. He described how
inaccessible solar energy currently is for New Mexicans. “Only about 3 to 4% of homes in New Mexico have solar on their roofs. To put it on your roof is anywhere from $20(,000) to 40,000. You can finance it over time, but you have to have really good credit,” Connelly said. Community solar means a wider variety of New Mexicans can take part in the energy transition process and the effort to stop using fossil fuels, not just those who are able to pay, according to Christopher Hall, who serves as Public Regulation Commissioner

Fiber Arts Fiesta returns to ABQ with fuzzy flair By Nell Johnson @peachnells The Albuquerque Fiber Arts Fiesta brought crafters together at the Expo New Mexico Manuel Lujan Jr. Exhibit Complex from April 14-16. Eighteen different guilds were in attendance representing a variety of fiber art disciplines such as quilting, beadery, weaving, embroidering, lacemaking and more. Vendors sold their work, judges awarded prizes to spectacular pieces and guilds held demonstrations for those interested in picking up some new skills. Typically a biennial event, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented the fiesta from being held in 2020. Event Director Elizabeth Whitehead expressed her excitement about having New Mexico’s fiber arts community
gathered under one roof again. “No. 1 is having everyone here together — that’s the big thing. Talking to the vendors, talking to the visitors, getting a lot of thank you’s for putting on the show,” Whitehead said. The fiesta is more than an opportunity for artists to sell or show off their work. It’s also a connective experience that bridges media, skill level and nationality. Rikki Quintana, an entrepreneur, was a vendor at the event. She is the founder and CEO of HoonArts, a fair-trade company that sells fiber art made by craftspeople in Central Asia, namely Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Her presence at the event means that New Mexicans are able to connect with artists halfway around the world. “(Art) can inspire people and connect people without needing to speak
the same language. So it’s always seemed (like) a way to start a conversation,” Quintana said. The Enchanted Lacemakers Guild helps maintain the cultural tradition of lacemaking, a process that originated in Europe and was almost ended by the mechanization of the Industrial Revolution. Member Tammy Padilla explained that the Fiber Arts Fiesta had a visitor from Germany who shared enthusiasm for lacemaking, specifically her favorite technique bobbin lace, or “klöppelspitzen” in German. “A lot of our books come from Europe, and they’re in other languages. He knew all about (lacemaking). He was telling us in German what he had seen the bobbin lacers doing,” Padilla said. There was a lot of variation in

The New Mexico Wilderness Alliance, a group that advocates for the conservation of wild land, issued a letter on March 17 that calls on the Bureau of Land Management to conduct a formal audit of inactive wells on federal land. “What we're looking for with the audit is for BLM to actually do a full analysis of how many (of) what we call orphaned or abandoned wells really do exist on BLM lands in New Mexico,” NM Wild staff attorney Logan Glasenapp said. Glasenapp said the group wrote the letter asking for the audit right now because the acting state director for the Bureau of Land Management, Melanie Barnes, has a background in biology as opposed to a background in the fossil fuel industry, as prior directors have had. They are hoping Barnes will thus be more mindful of perspectives that don’t include increasing profits in the fossil fuel sector. There are over 110,000 oil wells in New Mexico, according to the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral resources. The New Mexico Oil Conservation Division identified 6,000 wells that have not produced oil or gas in over a year. Of those, 2,600 are on federal lands in the state. An abandoned oil well, or an oil well that is no longer producing and has not been properly closed, poses threats to the surrounding environment, according to Gary Weissmann, a researcher in the earth and planetary sciences department at the University of New Mexico who also worked on abandoned wells in Montana. “The wells — when they're com-
pleted — they have a steel casing that goes down, that seals off the aquifers and everything else all the way down to where the production zone is. And so that steel casing corrodes over time, especially if there's some reactive gasses in the oil horizon, which is common ... The problem is, once those (are) corroded, then you can get fluids (such as oil) from the reservoir going up into the aquifers,” Weissmann said. A large part of why NM Wild is asking for the audit is because of how the large oil conglomerates are financially benefiting from not having to properly close their wells, even though not remediating the land around inactive wells legally goes against their lease, according to Glasenapp. “One of the things that they agreed to (when leasing the land) is that, when that well is no longer producing, they will plug and remediate the land. So the goal (with remediating) is basically (to) make it look like there was never a well pad there … Any company that has not done the work, is saving that much money from not doing the work and continuing to make money by being an active purchaser of leases that are producing oil and gas,” Glassenapp said. If an operator or a lessee violates their lease by abandoning an inactive well on federal land, BLM has the authority to revoke their ability to enter future leases, according to Glasenapp and NM Wild. The effects of revoking a company’s ability to enter another lease would have a substantial effect on the economy as it stands, according to Janie Chermak, the chair of the UNM economics department. “You know, hate or love fossil fuels, it's a pretty big part of the economy right now, and it would have drastic

Joseph Maestas’ executive assistant. “Just because they can’t afford to put it on their roof, or they don’t own their own home, should not be a barrier to entry to being able to participate in renewable energy,” Hall said. In terms of what community solar actually looks like to those who will benefit from it, Connelly said low-income individuals might save up to $40 a month on their electric bill due to the legislative changes, though supply chain issues raising the cost of equipment may decrease the discount. Community solar is a pilot program and is subject to change. Until it gets revisited in 2024, the energy output isn’t to exceed 200 megawatts,

which Connelly said translates to about 40 solar facility development projects. Because there’s so many New Mexicans ready to go green, the PRC has devised a list to help them prioritize who will build and operate new solar facilities, according to Hall. One such priority includes services or businesses owned by vulnerable groups, such as women, veterans and Native Americans. “Making sure that communities of color, low-income communities and Native American tribes are not left behind, I think that’s an important aspect of community solar,” Hall said. Maestas described the passing of the Community Solar Act as “the end of a long legislative road.”
“It was very political, and the coops and investor-owned utilities were united in opposition of community solar,” Maestas said. Investor-owned utilities are for-profit companies owned by shareholders. There are three IOUs operating in New Mexico: Public Service Company of New Mexico, El Paso Electric and Xcel Energy. Connelly attributes this opposition to the perceived potential threat that community solar projects pose to the utilities business model. Despite the difficulty, the push for community solar was successful because of key participants. Both Connelly and Maestas praised legislator Liz Stefanics, D-N.M., who
was instrumental in the regulatory process to allow community solar to come to fruition. Maestas also mentioned the efforts of Representative Patricia Roybal Caballero, D-N.M., and of advocates outside the government who worked behind the scenes on the issue. Looking beyond the community solar victory, which should take effect starting in early June, according to Maestas, the shift toward green energy in New Mexico is on a distant timeline. “The ultimate goal of the (Energy Transition Act), for investor-owned utilities, is to have 100% of their energy resources be carbon-free by 2045. Electric co-ops have to
be carbon-free, with 80% renewable included in that, by 2050,” Maestas said. In Connelly’s opinion, there’s not enough of an incentive for utilities to make the switch, and the transition to renewable energy isn’t moving fast enough. “Climate change is a very odd thing for humans to have to combat, because there’s a deadline. Otherwise, the longer you wait, there’s exponential increase in suffering,” Connelly said.
inactive wells unclosed is a shortterm money-saving tactic, as closing wells is a costly process and it leaves the door open to reopen a well. “Well, if the well could come back on the line and produce, and the state gets a tremendous amount of tax
revenues from oil and gas, that would be potentially possibly a good thing,” Chermak said. Glasenapp said BLM likely hasn’t had the resources or people to do an audit. The state is currently working toward receiving funding for clos-
ing orphaned wells on federal land from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act but even this will likely not be enough money to close every well, according to New Mexico Political Report. BLM did not respond to a request
for comment as of the publication of this article.
incredible amount of styles and techniques within the broad category of quilting. Quilting guilds include the ABQ Modern Quilt Guild, where quilters use bold geometric designs, and the Studio Art Quilt Associates, who create unique visual art with fabric. Presented quilts were divided into categories that included traditional, modern, innovative, art, pictorial and group. Judges also divided each category further into the size of the quilt: small, medium or large. First-time quilters were placed in an unjudged category to give their art a chance to grow. In order to give extra inspiration to attendees, Whitehead created two colorful challenges for the guild members: research an assigned
color and create a “white-on-white” project that incorporates a shade of white, like ivory, and then uses a supplemental color to showcase it. One guild focused their attention on Scheele’s green, a poisonous pigment laced with arsenic that killed many in the 18th and 19th centuries. Another facet of the fiesta was “doodahs,” gift bags received from a $5 donation to Roadrunner Food Bank. These included a set of flower-patterned coasters, a crocheted strawberry and a stitched purple ice cream cone. “It’s been a fun show. It’s hard not to go and spend all your profit.

This multifaceted artisanship is dubbed “cross pollination” by the crafters, according to Padilla. One vendor from El Paso, Tamara Michalina, is also a cross pollinator. She makes glass beads, ceramics and jewelry as well as macrames and crochets, although she said glass work is her favorite. “I have a kiln, I have a torch and I just play all day; it’s fun. And I love fibers, too — that’s why I’m here. I get bored really easily, so I like to try different techniques,” Michalina said.

UNM feminist literary club is totally radical By Zara Roy
@zarazzledazzle The University of New Mexico’s newly minted Radical Feminist Literary Society is in full swing. Meeting every Monday at 6:30 p.m. in the Student Union Building, the group flourishes as a space on campus to read and discuss radical feminist theoretical works in a safe and inclusive environment. “I think engaging with the actual theoretical tradition that actually exists is so important to push back against the idea that it’s just intuitive and that we already know what it is,” Mohammed Rawwas, UNM student and club member said. UNM senior Vivian Norman started this organization as well as UNM’s Students for Socialism. They were inspired to create the group when they noticed a pervasive lack in the consideration of feminist frameworks across leftist spaces. “I kind of noticed that feminism is shoved down as just a minor component of a bigger movement … I tried to address it a little bit within socialist spaces and it was kind of just met with ‘We already know that’ or ‘Oh whatever, we’ll talk about that,’ and things just didn’t change and didn’t get brought up, so I just left the generic socialist space and wanted to start a feminist space,” Norman said. The lack of attention to feminist theory within Students for Socialism and other socialist spaces in Albuquerque was also noted by group member and UNM economics student Eben

Bellas. Feminist spaces are incredibly limited on campus and within the larger socialist movement, according to Norman, and when there is large rallying around feminist politics, it starts and ends with conversations about access to abortion and childcare. “It seems like everyone thinks that they know feminism. It’s like, ‘We know what feminism is and we’re all feminists; let’s move on to more specific things,’ and we actually don’t and a lot of people really reject it,” Norman said. Currently, the group is reading “The Dialectic of Sex” by
Shulamith Firestone, which posits sexism as the most pervasive and widely ingrained form of classbased oppression in society. She also asserts that revolution can occur on the basis of sex and that sex should, in fact, be a primary political battleground as sex is rooted in a material reality that comes prior to other oppressive structures. “This was a very novel set of ideas at the time she was writing them, completely unique and self-generated ideas that she’s developing for the first time … It’s up to feminism as a movement as to whether you take up this particular strand of argumentation or not,” Rawwas said.
The group has been fairly productive in its meetings and discussions, but they have had issues with their posters being taken down across campus “within 12 hours” of their being put up, according to Norman. “I tell people that I’m in a radical feminist book club and some of the reactions I get are rancid. I’m like, ‘What? Why do you hate the idea of radical feminism so much?’” Bellas said. Still, the group shows no signs of stopping. They plan to continue with the Firestone reading for the remainder of the semester, and they are excited to continue to parse through and exchange
thoughts on oft-forgotten literature with a dynamic group. “I feel like the left is so politically weak that there’s this obsession over bringing everyone in together to unite over one idea. I feel like every time I’ve encountered it, they treat it kind of like a conservation of energy. They’re like, ‘No, defeating capitalism is our end goal right now, and so everything else comes after,’” Norman said. Zara Roy is the news editor at the Daily Lobo.

LETTER
UNM must fulfill its promise to New Mexicans: Bargain with the graduate union now
I am a graduate student teacher. My name is Penelope, but the University of New Mexico seems to prefer my deadname. I transitioned early in 2021. I began teaching in the fall, and it was important to me that I teach with my true name because teaching is deeply important to my self-understanding. It was so important, in fact, that I accelerated my transition to that end: I came out to my department and the school before my parents or many of my close friends. I think it can be hard for others to imagine how alienating it is for strangers to know your name before your loved ones. It was hard, but this was a sacrifice that I had to make in order to begin living the life I wanted to live. After going through the stubborn and very difficult process of setting up my new identity in various bureaucratic channels in the University (one must separately change one’s name on LoboMail, MyUNM and other portals that I cannot even recall, and the LGBTQ Resource Center’s guide on this process is woefully incomplete), I was dismayed to see that the University used my deadname on my course listing. Students invariably began the first day of class very confused. Now every class I have ever taught in a college setting has begun with a brief, vague, but nevertheless unmistakable allusion to my transness. I tried to contact admissions,
information technology, the registrar, my department chair and the LGBTQ center. They all essentially told me the same thing: until the state of New Mexico decides to recognize my new name legally, there was nothing they could do. And since the state of New Mexico has certain prerequisites for name and sex change, like being a resident for half a year, nothing could be done. Essentially, half of the administrative apparatuses around campus would call me by my deadname while the others would not. Perhaps the most frustrating of these cases is my LoboMail — the first place students turn to contact their professors — where “Penelope” shows in some areas but my deadname in others. This amplifies the confusion created by my old name showing up on the course listing. There is no way to steel yourself. You can be going as Penny all day long until the University decides to put you back in your place out of nowhere, and then you are back to remembering that this will likely recur in some fashion for the rest of your life, even after the legal process is over with. My deadnaming was simply determined to be an institutional reality beyond the purview of any of its bureaucrats, despite the occasional sympathetic and helpful listener. The way I see it, the University was essentially clocking me by deadnaming me in public contexts. Everyone acknowledged that it was wrong, but nobody really intended
4
to do anything about it. My situation is unique, but this is generally how the University thinks of graduate workers: expendable and unworthy of respect. I face additional challenges because I am trans, but this is the daily reality of being treated with no respect by the University. When you are a graduate student worker, the University thinks of you as expendable. Graduate students occupy an uneasy position between lucrative undergrads and highly exploitable adjunct professors, who exist essentially as a source of cheap labor and a perk for a higher class of professors. This is reflected in the treatment of trans people in an educational environment. The existing “preferred name” system was designed (apparently rather haphazardly and incompletely) around undergraduate students. And I don’t exactly see my tenure-track trans professors being deadnamed by the University publicly like I am, but as part of the academic underclass, my deadnaming was not considered worth addressing by anyone I spoke with. I was therefore unsurprised when the UNM administration claimed that graduate students were “graduate student learners” rather than workers. It rang as eerily familiar. Occupying an institutional middle ground between undergraduates and professors, graduate students are treated as a low-priority population by the
University system. The average stipend for a graduate student at the University of New Mexico is around $15,000 — well below the standards for a living wage in Albuquerque and graduate student pay at UNM’s peer institutions. There is almost no way to live on this income in Albuquerque unsupplemented — everyone knows this. By claiming that graduate students are “learners” rather than “workers,” the University can play both sides: graduate students can take on all the responsibilities of a lead instructor with none of the payment, benefits or protections. Our pay can be artificially inflated with “tuition remission,” a technique deployed frequently by universities to justify the poverty wages of their instructors. They can also claim that being a graduate student is only a “halftime” appointment, despite the recognition of everyone involved that the expectations for graduate students normally well exceed 20 hours a week. In other words, just as the University will use bureaucratic channels as a source of mystification and excuse for deadnaming me, so too will they use framework to justify their exploitation of other graduate students. The University of New Mexico has done everything in their power to stall the progress of the graduate student union precisely because of the value that they place on this highly exploitable labor. But New Mexicans are smarter than the University is giving them credit. By saying that they do not value their graduate workers, UNM is also saying that they do not value their undergraduate stu-
dents or their own educational environment. Undergraduates often recognize that many of their courses are taught by underpaid graduate students and adjunct professors. They are not idiots, so they begin to ask the question: If I pay tens of thousands of dollars every year for this, and a significant bulk of my instructors are paid effectively nothing, where is all this money going? The answer is of course: more administrators, presidential bonuses and crackpot union-busting lawyers. Does that sound like an institution that values the education of its undergraduates? How can a graduate student with an untreated toothache be a good listener? How can someone be expected to teach in a high-level academic environment when they are battling hunger and homelessness? How many “hustles” and “side-gigs” would you like your professors to have? The answer is obvious. Everyone at UNM would stand to benefit from a living wage and meaningful protections for graduate students because graduate students are a large part of what makes the University work. UNM must fulfill its promise to New Mexicans by ending the bureaucratic games, bargaining with the graduate student union and begin making amends to a vital part of their community that they have systematically undervalued and underappreciated.

REVIEW
‘Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore’ is worth a few sickles By Elizabeth Secor @esecor2003 “Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore” exceeded my very low expectations, but only marginally. The film was enjoyable but could have been a lot better, especially in comparison to its predecessors. While I could never really dislike a movie that dives back into the Wizarding World (I’ve adored the Harry Potter franchise since I was little), author J.K. Rowling is less than likeable and has opinions on matters outside her series are starkly different from mine. The first five minutes of the movie surprisingly hooked me and managed to leave me teary-eyed. It began with the assembly of a team in a fashion akin to that of a heist movie. Following this scene, though, the movie took a nosedive. While the film had a talented cast, it was too abundant and scattered,
leaving most characters without a proper arc. Newt Scamander hardly had any screen time, which is strange considering that he’s meant to be the main character. The recasting of Gellert Grindelwald was jarring at first but turned out okay enough. The character was played by Johnny Depp in the previous two films but was recently recast to Mads Mikkelsen after a series of events involving Depp’s ex-wife Amber Heard that I heavily disagree with — but won’t get into here. Mikkelsen fit his new role as Albus Dumbledore's past lover well and with his own unique talents, playing him in what is certainly a bit of fan service. Casting aside, the film was advertised as another account of Newt and his travels with his fantastic beasts. However, there was a sheer lack of new species of beasts in this film. There are two new main beasts introduced: Ditto Qilin, a frankly adorable scaly deer creature who captured my heart (and was the reason behind
many tears) and a cave full of creatures which I’m theorizing might have been Blast-Ended Skrewts. Even with the distinct lack of new beasts, the scene with these (maybe) Blast-Ended Skrewts was definitely the funniest scene from all three movies combined. Newt does a little dance, which includes an adorable hip wiggle, to survive the beasts, showcasing why I love his character so much. He is an awkward Hufflepuff (the best house and also my own house) who just wants to be allowed to find and help creatures. Instead, he keeps being pulled into Dumbledore’s convoluted schemes. Near the end, the movie tries to tie up most loose ends while still leaving enough for what is seemingly meant to be two more films. This is where I think the franchise fails. Three movies would have been perfect, and this movie had the ideal setup to end the franchise. However, the ending made it seem like the directors forgot there were meant to be two more Editor-in-Chief Megan Gleason Managing Editor John Scott

Returning to Hogwarts, magic, portkeys and even the wonder herself Minerva McGonagall popping up (they could even simply get rid of Dumbledore and give me only McGonagall) was such a joy to see on screen.

Poetry collection ‘The Loneliest Girl’ confronts sexist mythology By Nell Johnson @peachnells
Kate Gale’s “The Loneliest Girl,” published earlier this year by the University of New Mexico Press, is a book of poems that address sexual violence and the interactions that enforce and encourage it. Gale adds softness and depth to the well-known myth of Medusa — the Gorgon who was transformed into a monster through a rape by Poseidon — rendering her as a vulnerable woman seeking healing. The best works in this collection are the short and sensory pieces, like “Medusa’s Cookbook,” which includes lines such as “cloves — an unopened flower bud/cinnamon — a spiraled brown quill.” These poems flesh out Medusa’s physical world, removing the mythic and aligning us with her as an individual. In “Shame,” the speaker ignores messages about not eating, and Gale renders this in delicious, vivid detail: “By age ten: pine sap, cat and dog food, hay, grass, dandelions/clover, wild chives, tree bark, mold.” Another favorite of mine was “Under the Goblin Moon,” in which Gale presents different caricatures of Medusa and ends with her truth, spurning the lies told about her in various forms of media: “Do you know what my sisters and I do at night? / We dance ourselves divine under the goblin moon.” Despite some of these stunners,

I stumble towards grace.” It can be hard to relate to femininity, which is why I chose to review this over other UNM Press books published this year. Reading this book, I felt that the work equates womanhood with victimhood in a way that is hard
to separate. For example, the first poem in the collection is titled “There are ten things you need to know to be a woman.” It is a numbered list of attacks, both physical and mental, that the speaker has undergone. Each stanza has echoes of the
phrase: “They come for you.” This opener operates as a good summary of what the rest of the collection consists of: a rough outline of sexism. At times, reading these poems feels like a recap of the experience of misogyny one has experienced in their life, especially in “You Won’t Amount to Much” with the line, “As it turns out, you won’t amount to much if / you’re fat / you’re ugly … you can’t cook and serve / you can’t win and please.” Perhaps the most painful poem in this slim volume is the titular one, “The Loneliest Girl.” It’s an anthem for women whose suffering causes others to reject them, both men and women alike. The speaker of the poem repeats the phrase, “She never,” and the reader never has to complete the sentence; we understand that her loss is insurmountable, that it prevents her from the experiences she deserves to have. Even though I failed to connect with these poems, I know they could be a powerful source of insight and healing to others. Gale’s economy of language is striking; she plays with pain and pleasure in equal parts, showing us dark and light in turn, sometimes literally, like in “Story of Light.” Reading these pieces won’t turn you into stone, but they will certainly immobilize you; they will make you bear witness.

Former UNM staff member dedicates life to nonprofit work By Zara Roy
Outside of her work at the University, Kloeppel also worked with United Way on projects for the Hispano Philanthropic Society, where she helped give out grants to nonprofits and run programs encouraging middle school students in the South Valley to seek out higher education. Kloeppel said she misses working with students in her retirement. Kloeppel found her life skills class, which she helped create at the University and became a primary instructor of, to be particularly rewarding. She recalled having several students from the class contact her years later to let her know how helpful the course was for them. “Just being around students was very invigorating … It's something that I do miss now that I’ve been out for almost two years,” Kloeppel said. Growing up Catholic, Kloeppel first got started with community service managing finances and fundraising for the church at UNM’s Aquinas Newman Center. “I grew up being kind of an introvert and I also didn’t have a lot of self-confidence so I was never really sure if I was smart enough or if I was good enough … I always wanted to do something; I just wasn’t sure how to get started. And then once I did that, I felt good about it — it makes you feel good about how you are,”
@zarazzledazzle After 25 years of groundbreaking work at the University of New Mexico and United Way, recently retired Chief Operations Officer for Student Affairs Kim Kloeppel was recognized with the UNM Zia award, an award that recognizes alumni who have distinguished themselves through their service to the University or greater community. Kloeppel’s weighty list of accomplishments include serving as interim dean of students for three years, leading renovations of Smith Plaza, creating the Lobo Food Pantry and starting the UNM Random Acts of Kindness initiative, now known as BeKind UNM, a group which promotes kindness and respect on campus and in the greater Albuquerque community. “I have so much gratitude for my life and the people that are in it, so it makes me feel good when I’m out there doing something for somebody else,” Kloeppel said. After earning her bachelor’s degree in sociology, Kloeppel worked in retail for some time, still in mind to find a career path where she could help people. She then found a job at Student Health and Coun-

seling as a program manager where she worked for 10 years before moving to Student Affairs. Dorene DiNaro worked under Kloeppel for 13 years and credits Kloeppel with helping her grow into her current position as program planning manager. She continues to be good friends with Kloeppel even after her retirement, indulging in monthly happy hour excursions
among other things. “She offered me opportunities which were good. I think I just never considered myself a leader or super confident and she had me chairing the marketing and social media committees … One of the biggest opportunities I think was chairing that committee and being able to mold that position into what I wanted it to be,” DiNaro said.

Kloeppel said. DiNaro praised Kloeppel’s generosity and inclusivity and overall described her as somebody who is always there for those in her life. She said Kloeppel has always been incredibly generous with DiNaro’s son, who she had a year into working with Kloeppel, and there has “never been a time when she hasn’t thought of him.” “She’s just always very inclusive; she’ll try and include me whenever she can. Even when life’s gotten hectic, you know, we have different lives, … she’s still always made time for me and tried to get me to do things as well,” DiNaro said. “She’s good at bringing people together, I can tell you that.” Outside of homemaking projects and quilting, Kloeppel has spent her retirement reflecting on how important the connections in her life were. Her itch to help others has not gone away, and she now donates blood platelets every month and gives money to various nonprofits. “She’s a good person. She’s a very kind person. I feel like her heart’s always in the right place,” DiNaro said. Zara Roy is the news editor at the Daily Lobo. She can be contacted at news@dailylobo.com or on Twitter @zarazzledazzle

Lobos softball team pulls off historic 2-1 series win against Fresno State
By Shelby Kleinhans
and Taryn Young both delivered bleacher-clearing two-run homers. Howard’s home run broke another program record with a new total of 363 total career bases. On her improved batting performance, Martinez explained that her play changed during the away series against Colorado State University that the Lobos played prior to Fresno State. “I was like, ‘Okay, now it’s time to really flip that switch and just have some fun and just do what I know what to do and just go on that train with everyone else,’” Martinez said. The Friday afternoon game was an equally exciting game for the Lobos’ offense. Freshman Ashley Archuleta came into the game with zero home runs but managed to secure a three-run home run and a solo home run in back-to-back plate appearances for a grand total of four runs batted in. Martinez came in clutch again for the Lobos with a game-winning single through the right side that allowed Peyton Robinson to score and put the Lobos up 6-5, which secured the win after the Lobos held off the Bulldogs at the top of the seventh inning. Archuleta, a freshman at UNM with a season batting average of .328, explained how great it felt to be having such hot at-bats and how impactful the season has been so far. “(It’s been) a great learning experience, obviously; it’s a great season and especially as a freshman, you learn something new every day” Archuleta said.
@BirdsNotReal99 The University of New Mexico softball team had a troubled start to their conference season coming into their home series against Fresno State 2-7, but they battled for three games and pulled out a series win against the Bulldogs. The series lasted from Thursday, April 14 to Saturday, April 16 and was played at the Lobo Softball Field. The series win bumps the Lobos’ overall record to 24-17, but their 4-8 conference record leaves the Lobos near the bottom of the pack in conference standings. The Lobos played an incredible game Thursday night against the Bulldogs. Despite being out-hit 106, they still forced the game into extra innings, even though they did eventually lose. Friday night they were out-hit 11-7 but managed to pull off a 6-5 win thanks to their offense putting in the work. The afternoon game on Saturday saw the Lobos out-hit the Bulldogs 6-5 and take the series win with a score of 4-1, winning a series against Fresno State for the first time since 1993. While Thursday night was a tough loss for the Lobos, there was still a lot to celebrate. Four out of the six hits for the Lobos were home runs, with two of those being two-run home runs. Briana Martinez accounted for the two solo home runs, and Andrea Howard

Throughout the three games, fans missed out on seeing Howard have more opportunities to add runs to the board as the slugger was intentionally walked nine times: three times during the game on Thursday, four times during the game on Friday and two times during the game on Saturday. Hot off their 6-5 win on Friday, the Lobos showed up to Saturday’s game ready to add another “W” to their record. The Lobos got on the board first in the bottom of the second inning with back-to-back doubles from Emma Bramson and Robinson that added one run for the Lobos. Unfortunately, they couldn’t capitalize any further and ended the inning with two runners left on base. The third and fourth innings saw both teams get singles, but pitchers Emma Guindon and Cassidy West for the Lobos and Bulldogs, respectively, put an end to any runs being added. Guindon, in particular, worked hard during the game, pitching all seven innings and adding five strikeouts to her record. The bottom of the fifth inning is when the Lobos finally got a chance to put the pedal to the metal and establish some distance between the Bulldogs. Robinson got a single and Howard was intentionally walked, which set the Lobos up for success when Martinez doubled deep into left field and allowed both to score and make it a 3-0 ball game. A deep fly ball to right field by Bramson was

all that Martinez needed to increase the score to 4-0. The Bulldogs tried to come back with a hit in the top of the sixth inning but couldn’t put any runs up. If it wasn’t for Mackenna Steele hitting a solo home run in the top of the seventh, the Bulldogs would’ve been completely shut out by the Lobos. In an exhilarating end to the game, Robinson made an incredible diving catch that secured the third out and officially made the Lobos the winners of the game and the series. UNM head coach Paula Congleton said she was proud of the team’s performance in the series and was hopeful the team would continue to build off that momentum. “I think we’re kind of settling back into who we really are,” Congleton said. “We’re not pressing. I think the kids kind of got in their heads a little
bit of like, ‘Oh, we got one loss, we got two losses, we got three losses.’ And you know, when we start to press, we get tight, and we don’t play the way we should. So I think hopefully, those days are behind us and we’re ready to roll for the rest of conference.” The Lobos will continue their conference play away from home against the University of Nevada, Reno for a three-game series April 22-24. The rest of the season will be conference play, with the Lobos coming home again for a series against the University of Nevada, Las Vegas April 29-May 1.

UNM baseball loses close game to SDSU 11-8 By Thomas Bulger @thomasbulger10 The University of New Mexico played the San Diego State Aztecs on Saturday, April 16 to finish their three-game series against San Diego State in Albuquerque. The Aztecs swept the Lobos, winning all three games in the series. UNM now has a 14-21 record this season and is on a four-game losing streak. In the first inning, the Lobos sent out Matt Haley as their starting pitcher. Haley gave up a single on the first at-bat against San Diego State’s Irvin Weems. Weems then stole second, and Shaun Montoya singled to send him home. Cole Carrigg singled to score two runners, pushing the San Diego State lead to 3-0. Brian Leonhardt batted in another run, but he was called out at first. Haley then struck out Evan Sipe, ending the top of the first with the Lobos down 4-0. The Aztecs starting pitcher was Chris Canada. Canada fared slightly better than Haley with two quick outs but still gave up two singles and a walk. With the bases loaded, Canada struck out Kyle Landers and got the Aztecs out of the inning without allowing a single run. In the top of the second, Haley didn’t allow a hit and got three quick outs. In the bottom of the second, Lobos designated hitter Lance Russell hit a home run, cutting into the Aztec lead 4-1. Shane Podsednik was walked but was later thrown out at third base on a wild pitch, ending the inning. Haley loaded the bases quickly in the third and Sipe doubled, scoring two. This was followed by an Alex Rodriguez double that scored
two runs. Weems singled, allowing Rodriguez to run home. The inning ended on a Montoya ground out with UNM down 9-1. In the fourth inning, Will Armbruester was subbed in to pitch for the Lobos and had a quick inning where he forced a groundout, flyout and then a strikeout. Canada continued pitching into the fourth inning and did not allow a hit. Armbruester continued his excellent play, not allowing a hit or a run in the fifth. Canada walked Sean Stephens to start the sixth inning, and Jeffery David singled. Kamron Willman doubled to score two runs. Landers hit a sacrifice fly toward right field to make the game 9-4. Canada was subbed out of the game in favor of Eldridge Armstrong III, who helped San Diego get the last out of the inning. Armbruester allowed one hit in the top of the sixth but struck out Poncho Ruiz to get the last out. Cole Posey hit a home run to left field followed by a David homer to put the Lobos in a close game, only down 9-6. Armstrong was able to finish the inning by striking out Braydon Runion. To start the seventh, UNM subbed in Justin Still, who forced a ground out but hit Johnny Gianolla with a pitch and gave up a single. Still was able to end the inning with a strikeout and not allow a run. San Diego State subbed in Jacob Flores to pitch the seventh inning. He gave up a home run to Landers followed by a double from Russell, who was sent home on a Posey single. With Lobos runners on first and second, San Diego State subbed in Avery Jones to pitch. Jones got the last two outs without allowing a

run, and the Lobos stayed behind 9-8 heading into the eighth. UNM subbed in Aaron Makil to pitch, who immediately got a strikeout but then hit two batters and gave up two singles that scored two runs.
