LGBTQ Resource Center honors lost loved ones

By Rebecca Brusseau @r_brusseau The University of New Mexico LGBTQ Resource Center celebrated Día De Los Muertos by decorating sugar skulls and participating in other activities during the week. The festivities closed with an altar blessing Thursday to remember lost loved ones in the LGBTQ community.

The shrine was adorned with candles, sugar skulls, flowers, flower petals and images of deceased friends and family.

“A part of the LGBTQ experience is that we consider each other family,” said Frankie Flores, a staff member at the LGBTQ Resource Center. “We do this to honor our loved ones who have passed, those who have been watching and guiding over us the past year.”

The ceremony began with the traditional burning of the copal, an incense used for honoring lost loved ones. According to tradition, this incense is believed to summon and comfort these spirits.

Flores led the traditional copal smudging, which included praying to the four directions, praying to the sky and the earth and blessing participants with the copal. Flores surrounded those blessed with smoke from the burning incense,

Keller, Colón and Pedrotty visit student organization

By Ludella Awad @LudellaAwad The University of New Mexico College Democrats met Wednesday night at the Student Union Building for a Q&A with current mayoral candidate Tim Keller and former mayoral candidates Brian Colón and Gus Pedrotty.

The event began with brief speeches from Keller, Colón and Pedrotty on public health, crime and other issues. Members of the student organization continued the conversation by asking the guest speakers about other issues across the city and state.

Ona-Rain Morgan, a member of College Democrats, said she enjoyed seeing the candidates’ mutual support for one another, all in the hopes of improving Albuquerque.

“Democrats really have a good understanding of what the people of New Mexico want,” she said. “A lot of the ideology and core values that I think a lot of citizens of New Mexico have are represented well in the Democratic Party.”

Keller suggested young politicians “start early, and you can pick your own path. You can do it through issue groups, you can do it through the Party, you can do it through campaigns and you can

also do it on the policy end, like working up in the Round House or volunteering in City Hall...Most of the elected officials have internship programs, like in the state auditor’s office. We love UNM interns, and we would love more.”

Keller said he hopes to create strategic incentives around college students coming out of universities and entering the workforce.

He also advocated for helping high school students get a head start.

“I really believe we have a much

broader view of extracurricular activities in our high schools that are career-based, so by the time you get to UNM, you might already have your associate’s degree from a dual-degree program,” he said. “You might also be getting bilingual education after school and over the summer, focusing on a high school apprenticeship and job skill training program.”

Morgan said she has confidence in Keller’s ability to get things done for the people of Albuquerque.

“I think Tim Keller is honestly really in touch with the younger generation, with the larger population of Albuquerque that is oftentimes overlooked,” she said.

“I also liked what he had to say about keeping our generation here, because I know, as an out-of-state student, I’m looking to grad school out of state just because I don’t find a lot of opportunities here, and I think he’s going to be the one to really fix that.”

In a press release, Jackie Luchini, President of UNM College Democrats said, “We’re taking this new energy from UNM College Democrats to engage the students and encourage participation on campus, in the community and at the polls.”

Editor’s Note: The original online version of this article stated Pedrotty endorsed Keller, but that is false and has since been corrected. In the original article, Jackie Luchini’s surname was misspelled, and she was misquoted in her statement — that has also been corrected. The Daily Lobo apologizes for any confusion.

UNM selects its 22nd president

By Gabriella Rivera @gabbychlamps The University of New Mexico has found its next president, the first woman in the school’s history to serve in the top position.

Garnett S. Stokes was selected and approved as UNM 22nd president in a unanimous Board of Regents vote this week, according to the UNM Newsroom.

“We are proud and honored to announce that Garnett Stokes has accepted our offer to become UNM’s next president,” said Board President Rob Doughty in the official announcement. “This is a transformational time at UNM, and Dr. Stokes brings the experience, skills and vision that UNM needs in a president to drive UNM beyond just its potential.”

LOBO PAGE TWO Lecture series puts spotlight on Russia Monday, November 6, 2017

By Kyle Land

@Kyleoftheland Russia has filled the headlines over the past few months for many reasons, most notably allegations that their government colluded with Donald Trump’s campaign to interfere in the 2016 election.

With this in mind, as well as the 100-year anniversary of the Russian Revolution, which ushered in the start of the Soviet Union, the University of New Mexico Department of History organized a series of lectures concerning past and current events of Russian history.

The event was organized in large part by Dr. Erika Monahan, professor of Russian history at UNM. She said planning for the series began as far back as April.

“I (wanted) to put together a series with people from different fields,” she said.

The series included seven lectures over four days, with topics ranging from the annexation of Crimea to how business is

conducted in a post-Soviet Russia.

Attendance for the lectures ranged from 50 to 110 people each.

Funding for the event, which went toward paying for the expenses of the guest speakers, was generated from nine different campus departments, including the School of Law and the National Security Studies Program.

The first lecture featured Sabra Ayres, a Moscow correspondent for the Los Angeles Times. She discussed her time covering the 2014 revolution that took place in Kiev’s Maidan Square and the rippling effects it had for both Russia and Ukraine.

Ayres also discussed her story about the Russian Orthodox Church attempting to quash a film depicting an historically factual affair between Czar Nicholas II and a ballerina named Matilda.

Another lecture featured Sean Guillory, who hosts Sean’s Russia Blog podcast, where he discusses all things concerning Russia. His lecture was titled “Taking the PhD beyond Academia,”arelevanttopicconsidering the scarce amount of tenure-track positions for PhD recipients, especially

in the humanities.

One lecture, done by Tricia Starks of the University of Arkansas, focused on the healthcare system in Russia, which may become extremely consequential for the European power.

“Right now the population (of Russia) is around 145 million,” Starks said. “By 2050, it’ll be around 105 million.”

Many lecturers said the massive decrease in population is due to young Russians immigrating to other countries with better opportunities, for both business and school. These ideas tied in with the lecture by Daniel Wolfe, an American entrepreneur living in Moscow.

Wolfe expressed concerns about the Russian government’s control of economic life, citing that nearly 70 percent of companies in Russia are state-owned.

Monahan also said she felt worried for the state of Russia and its increasing authoritarian nature.

“It is deeply disturbing that statues of Stalin have been resurrected in Moscow,” Monahan said. “There’s been a return to patriarchy. You see

it in commercials.”

Despite this, Monahan said she remains optimistic for Russia’s future.

“Putin, unlike Trump, recognizes the folly of demonizing Muslims and other minorities,” she said. “Russia will need to embrace immigration.”

Due to the success of the lecture series, Monahan said she has

tentative plans for more lectures in late January. She is currently in the process of inviting possible speakers for those events.

Drug testing plan for athletes stalls

By Aaron Cowan @AaronTCowan Most people would probably agree Lobo student-athletes should not use dangerous substances such as illegal street drugs or steroids.

The University of New Mexico’s Student Athlete Handbook states, “the use of drugs or narcotics not prescribed by a physician is prohibited and a violation of (our) policy.”

To enforce that policy, the UNM President’s Office recently committed $23,000 to a new student-athlete drug testing program to be conducted by Aegis Sciences Corporation. In a purchase order dated Sept. 14, 2017, Margaret Davis, administrative officer for the Office of the President and Main Campus Compliance Office, described the purpose of the order as “random drug testing program for Athletics managed by Main Campus Compliance Office.”

Yet, almost two months later, despite repeated inquiries, details of the new drug testing program

have not been forthcoming.

According to comments from the President’s Office obtained through University Communication and Marketing Director Steve Carr, “A final determination on what type of testing will be administered will be made by Eddie Nuñez (the new athletics director), who is currently in the developmental phase of planning.”

Frank Mercogliano, a sports information director and assistant athletic director for Communications, echoed those sentiments.

“Anything said regarding (the plan) would be premature,” Mercogliano said.

Several attempts were made to get a statement from Nuñez, but there has been no response.

According to a fee schedule obtained by filing a request through the New Mexico Inspection of Public Records Act, the $23,000 estimate appeared to be calculated based on the cost of collecting, shipping and testing 500 urine samples of a “4Drug Class Profile Zero Tolerance Comprehensive Profile.”

This 4-drug class profile,

according to Aegis Sciences business documents, is designed to test for amphetamines, opiates, marijuana and cocaine/crack. The President’s Office also obtained price quotes that included 500 tests for “Synthetic Cannabinoids,” also known as “Spice,” and a “Comprehensive Anabolic Steroid Profile.”

With the addition of these substances, the total cost of testing would have apparently been as high as $42,000, but the final purchase order opted for the lesser figure.

It is unclear why the University settled on 500 tests, unless the Athletics Department plans to test every student-athlete at least once.

Associate Athletics Director for Compliance Eric Schultz said UNM had 475 “athletes on roster” at the beginning of the year, but “this number has gone up” and is “fairly fluid and changes weekly.”

However, the President’s Office, when asked for comment on whether this meant that UNM intended to test all student-athletes, said, through University Communications and Marketing, “500 was a reference point, not a

definitive quantity.”

The office declined to provide additional details about why the number 500 was picked.

As the scope of the drug problem as well as the types of drugs most likely to be abused haven’t been identified, it is unclear why the amount of money requested was so specific.

Professor James Degnan, the director of the UNM Statistics Consulting Clinic, was asked to address such questions.

Degnan confirmed that if UNM wanted to determine if a problem existed, a much smaller number of athletes out of a population of about 500 could be tested. He said that for a sample of 100, “based on a 95 percent confidence interval” on the low end, “the margin of error would be about 5 percent.”

Testing a smaller number of student-athletes to see if there is a widespread issue would seem to make more sense before sinking so much money into testing, said SSC graduate statistics consultant Zach Stuart.

“Find out if there is a problem

first, and go from there,” he said.

Conducting 100 such tests would only cost $4,600, which would save $18,400 over what is currently budgeted.

If a drug abuse problem was uncovered, that data might provide valuable guidance on how the Athletics Department should proceed.

This smaller sample group could also be tested for substances like anabolic steroids and spice with the cost, according to the figures provided by Aegis Sciences, still be substantially below the $23,000 price tag.

It hasn’t yet been explained why this plan involving tens of thousands of dollars of public money has been developed with so few details available to the public and no apparent timeline for completion.

The Daily Lobo will continue to investigate this issue.

were able to grab a plate of the homemade meal for themselves.

This Día De Los Muertos tradition has been celebrated by the LGBTQ Resource Center for the past seven years.

“In the past, we’ve decorated sugar skulls,” Flores said. “We have even done a few workshops explaining the cultural significance of Día De Los Muertos.”

This tradition is one that is familiar to many members of the community who have been raised in traditional Hispanic culture.

“Día De los muertos has been a very strong part of my family,” Flores said. “I wanted to bring something that is a part of the heritage of my family to my family here, at UNM.” The next event for the LGBTQ

Resource Center will be in honor of the Transgender Day of Remembrance on Nov. 20. The center plans to host a potluck, speakers discussing their experiences living as transgender people in Albuquerque and a vigil to pay respects to loved ones lost as victims of violent hate crimes. “(Holding these events) is important, because I feel that

told the UNM newsroom. “I am confident that with her passion for higher education, commitment to both student and faculty success and experience in developing strong leadership teams, that she is the perfect fit to be president of UNM.” University leadership praised the decision, including Associated Students of the University of New Mexico President Noah Brooks.

“I hope that President Stokes will be able to identify the University’s weaknesses and make them our strengths,” Brooks said.

“One thing I am really hoping for is that she will listen to students, staff and faculty alike in the shared governance process.

If all constituents feel as though they have a voice at the table, then everyone will be happier, as we will have a more inclusive environment. I am excited to work with President Stokes to ensure this is done.”

Interim Provost Craig White and Interim President Chaouki Abdallah welcomed Stokes in campus-wide emails on Friday.

“The first female president will truly be an historic moment for the University,” White wrote. “I am confident that President Stokes will find broad support and goodwill as she begins her term in March.”

He added that he will resume his position as Dean of the Anderson School of Management at that

time, and a permanent Provost will be named.

“I would like to personally congratulate and welcome Dr. Garnett Stokes as the new president of the University of New Mexico,” Abdallah wrote in his email. “I look forward to her leadership and supporting her in this role. The campus really came together to learn about the candidates, welcome them to our campus and provide feedback to the regents for this important selection…(i)t has truly been an honor to be a part of the University’s journey during the last year, and I look forward to welcoming the new president to the campus in March 2018.”

Stokes will join the UNM family after a variety of highranking administrative roles at other institutions.

She currently serves as provost and executive vice chancellor at the University of Missouri and briefly served as interim chancellor there this year. She also previously held administrative positions at Florida State University as provost, executive vice president for academic affairs and interim president.

Stokes will operate under a fiveyear contract and an annual salary of $400,000 and will assume her position on March 1, 2018, according to the UNM Newsroom.

The decision follows a 10-month search conducted by a 22-person committee chaired by Doughty and aided by national executive search firm Isaacson, Miller.

The candidates underwent three weeks of public dialogue, Board of Regents inquiries and meetings with campus administration, the UNM Newsroom reported. Stokes experienced broad support during all of these events.

CAPS receives national tutoring award

By Tom Hanlon @TomHanlonNM The University of New Mexico’s tutoring service, the Center for Academic Program Support, was recently certified as a Learning Center of Excellence by the National College Learning Center Association.

CAPS received the award in October, and two of its supervisors were also named outstanding supervisors by the NCLCA. Aeron Haynie, executive director for CAPS, said the award is something CAPS worked hard toward achieving.

“For this award we had (to) show things like accessibility to every single one of the places where we tutor, we had to explain how our tutors are trained (and) the background that every one of the staff has,” Haynie said. “We’re very proud and excited to have this national attention.”

The NCLCA awards the certification based on seven main

criteria, including the kinds of services offered by the tutoring center, its organization and design and the professional development of the staff. “(The application) goes through a peer review process,” Compton said. “The NCLCA sends it to experienced professionals in the field that review the application. So it’s reviewed by learning center professionals all over the country.”

CAPS received a plaque, a listing on the NCLCA website and an image of the certification that can be placed on digital materials provided by the tutoring service.

Anne Compton, associate director of CAPS and one recipient of the outstanding supervisor award, said CAPS is different from other tutoring centers.

“We have a unique program.

Lots of colleges have learning centers, but ours is unique in terms of the scope of services we have,” Compton said.

CAPS offers tutoring services in math, science, writing and languages, and has recently implemented an online tutoring service.

Compton said that while some students coming from high school may think tutoring is for those who need remedial help, CAPS tries to emphasize tutoring as a tool all students can use.

“We like to think that successful students are the ones that use resources across campus,” she said.

“No one really does college alone.

We don’t think of our services as remedial; we think of them as helping students bump up the skills they need to be successful.”

Sam Goodwin, a senior finance major at UNM, works as a math tutor at CAPS. “Seeing people actually understand something when they’re struggling with a concept — if I’m able to help have it click for them it feels good to me, and it’s good for them,” Goodwin said.

CAPS tutors attend training sessions each week to stay up to date with the material that classes cover throughout the semester.

Training sessions like these played a role in why CAPS received the certification.

While CAPS was certified as an

LETTERS Chickenhawk Donald: A complete and total disgrace Editor, On Nov. 3, U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who spent five years as a prisoner of the Taliban in Afghanistan, was sentenced to dishonorable discharge, reduction in rank to private and a $10,000 fine after pleading guilty to charges of desertion and misbehavior before the enemy.

Without hesitation and displaying reckless disregard for his own reputation, U.S. President Donald Trump courageously mounted his keyboard and charged Twitter to pronounce the sentence “a complete and total disgrace to our Country and to our Military.”

There’s certainly a complete and total disgrace to discuss here, but it’s neither

How to have a good day Editor, Everybody needs a good day every now and then!

Think of something or someone for which you are grateful. Maybe this is easy?

Hopefully you have one or maybe dozens of people that are meaningful to you. We all have someone that aggravates us or maybe worse. We’re not going to emphasize that group in this column. They get enough glory.

Today just think about those people you enjoy seeing or hearing from.

Have something to do every day. It is better

Bergdahl nor his sentence. It’s Trump and his hypocrisy.

Although I’m a veteran myself, I don’t consider military service a special qualification for holding public office. In fact, there’s a good case to be made that it’s a handicap (if not for the officeholder, for the public that officeholder claims to serve).

The skills one learns in the armed forces do not speak to political and philosophical questions such as whether or not a war is justifiable. Nor, except at the level of generalship, do they equip one with a grasp of grand strategy. They do, however, feed the entitled attitude and seeming impunity that accompany government employment.

Be that as it may, if there’s anything worse in public office than a proud veteran who learned the wrong lessons, it’s a gutless but grandiose chickenhawk like Donald Trump.

In 2006, 20-year-old Bowe Bergdahl enlisted in the U.S. Coast Guard, but was discharged

after 26 days for what the press characterizes as “psychological reasons.” Two years later, despite that record, Bergdahl was allowed to enlist in the U.S. Army and deploy to Afghanistan as an infantry trooper.

On June 30, 2009, Bergdahl left his post in Paktika Province for reasons that remain unclear and disputed. He spent the next five years as a prisoner of the Taliban. Now he’s a dishonorably discharged private with a $10,000 invoice in hand.

Bergdahl may have been delusional, or he may have become disillusioned. His Coast Guard discharge should have made it clear to the Army that he wasn’t cut out for military work. But he at least made the attempt.

Donald Trump styles himself “Commander in Chief.” As a candidate, he called himself “the most militaristic person there is.” He “always felt that” he was in the military, because his parents shipped him off to a military school as a teen to curb his

bratty behavior. He loves military pomp and pageantry. But he actively avoided military reality when it counted.

Instead of enlisting and putting his vaunted warrior spirit to the test during Vietnam, Trump took five draft deferments: four for college and one on a claim of “bone spurs” in his feet (they hadn’t stopped him from participating in athletics, of course).

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t blame Trump for avoiding Vietnam. I blame him for not learning a little bit of humility from his experience.

If military service is a standard of fitness, Donald Trump isn’t fit to shine Bowe Bergdahl’s boots.

if you have three things to do. If you are going to work every day, you have plenty to do. If you are raising kids or caring for family, you have plenty to do. Don’t run out of things to do. Clean your house, work in your yard or find a part time job, but have something that requires you to put out some effort.

Do something to take care of your health every day. Walking, bike riding, fervent exercise along with focusing more on healthy eating all have positive effects on our mental well being.

Try to reduce negativity in your life. Don’t watch negative cable television four or five hours a day. They are saying the same things over and over. I suspect you could start talking before you turn on the channel and verbalize almost verbatim what is being said depending on the channel. Also, reduce the negative

people time in your life. That may be hard if you live with a negative person or have lots of negative family. Try to be the upbeat person and try to create happier conversations.

This brings us to laughter. Laughter is good medicine for any mind and body. Families that laugh will be happier growing old together. Social groups that interact and laugh can’t wait to gather again. Happy churches that are laughing together will stay together and even grow. Children need to hear their parents laughing and laughing with them.

Don’t make age the deciding factor. A friend of mine had been on the sideline of life for a long time and got another chance.

Some tough things happened to him in life.

He went through a divorce. After this life-altering event, he got in trouble and had to go

to prison. That was a very dark period in his life. However, in time he got back on his feet.

He went forward, tried to stay upbeat and at the age of 77, was called to serve a very vibrant church as their senior pastor. For the last three years, he has done a tremendous job. He didn’t let his age along with his past failures cripple him for the rest of his life.

Gain strength each day from outside of you. Look to God, a loving spouse, family, friends and good mentors. We all need time to be alone, but we also all have times when we need support from outside of ourselves.

We’ve all had a few bad days along the way. Here is to a good day for you and hopefully many of them.

BioBlog: The time conundrum

By Bryan McLean @bryansmclean Editor’s Note: This piece was originally published online in the UNM BioBlog on Feb. 12, 2015. This is part of our project to help connect the Daily Lobo audience to more members of our community.

Everything in biology has a history. Biodiversity waxes and wanes.

Communities are disassembled and reassembled. Organisms coevolve. Knowing the timescale of these processes — and not just that they occur — is key. Among other things, scientists can use temporal information to compare rates of change in processes operating today (biodiversity loss, community homogenization) to those that have operated in the past.

In the same way, fully understanding the histories of groups of organisms (i.e. their phylogeny) includes knowing not only their relationships to one another, but also the timescale of their diversification. Many things can evolve along phylogenies for which we would like to know absolute rates (body size and shape, life history traits, behaviors). Fortunately, biologists have been undertaking phylogenetics for a long time, and have continually devised ways to better infer branching order on phylogenies. Still, neontologists (a term paleontologists sometimes use to refer to non-paleontologists studying living organisms) have

been relatively slow in perfecting methods for dating the divergences among living taxa. That is a task that depends entirely on the information already contained in the fossil record. Or is it?

Dating the history of life in deep time1 used to be the exclusive domain of the paleontologist.

And prior to the Modern Synthesis, paleontology and the rest of biology didn’t necessarily mix that well2. Neontologists really only appeared at the deep-time discussion about half a century ago. That is when Zuckerkandl and Pauling formalized their influential theory of the molecular clock3 (now a must-cite for anyone interested in methods for dating phylogenies). They suggested that genetic molecules (DNA, RNA, proteins) act as “informostats” — in other words, they integrate information on their evolutionary histories that can be retrieved by scientists.

Mutations in the molecules (base substitutions in DNA sequence or amino acid substitutions in proteins) are “ticks” on the molecular clock. If we know the rate of these ticks, we should be able to calculate the time since two molecules (and the organisms to which they belong) diverged.

Neontologists have been dating events in the history of life ever since. Yet, it is important to remember that there is actually no direct temporal information in DNA sequences. In other words, the time at which two clades diverged cannot be read directly from their DNA sequences in the same way that the

Follow us on Twitter! @DailyLobo

age of a fossil can be read directly from its stratigraphic position. Instead, fossil calibrations along with model-based approaches are often used. A “strict” molecular clock might be a good starting model: say, one base substitution per site per million years. However, nonclock-like molecular evolution has been widely documented in organisms (for example, turtles4). This means that there could be higher or lower rates of changes in the DNA. This is problematic for biologists, because age estimates will be strongly influenced by the model we use.

Hypothetical scenario (that actually happens all the time): suppose you obtain DNA sequences for most living taxa in a clade, apply several reliable fossil calibrations to your phylogeny and obtain a timescale for the evolution of this group. You compare these ages to more longstanding estimates based on the fossil record, geology, biogeography or other information.

Mind you, this latter timescale has almost certainly been arrived at more painstakingly and over a longer time period than your estimates. The two-age estimates disagree. This is the time conundrum.

On one hand, the fossil record, despite all its amazing insights, will never yield direct ages for all events in the history of life about which we are interested. On the other hand, absolutely dating these events using DNA sequences (with or without fossil calibrations) requires a number of model assumptions.

Sometimes these assumptions lack

firm empirical support. In the worstcase scenario they will mislead.

Still, even if we can be confident in our assumptions, they may lead to results that disagree with current scientific understanding of a particular group.

Fortunately, neontologists and paleontologists have been working on these general problems for a while. Richer molecular clock models are always being implemented, which help to capture the complexities in rates of DNA evolution. More sophisticated fossil calibration methods are also being developed, which can take into account multiple other complexities (e.g., likelihoods of fossilization, uncertainties in the phylogenetic position of fossils). And, of course, paleontologists are always revising the timeline of life on Earth using the rock record.

Charles Darwin famously wrestled5 with the reality of an imperfect fossil record, largely in the context of how it would affect acceptance of the theory of evolution by natural selection.

Luckily, in the narrower context of dating the Tree of Life, we should feel fortunate that paleontological data and molecular dating can partner in the endeavor. Of course disagreements between the two types of data abound, but this is how science often works anyway — by steady accumulation and evaluation of evidence.

Furthermore, having both types of data can teach us something about how both of these processes (fossilization and DNA evolution)

MOVIE REVIEW

“Thor: Ragnarok” fun but lacking depth

By Hector Valverde @hpvalverde I love Marvel Studios. I can always rely on them to deliver on a good time at the very least.

But with the release of “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” and “Spiderman: Homecoming,” I started to worry that enjoyable but ultimately disposable movies is all that Marvel Studios is willing to offer. Their newest addition, “Thor: Ragnarok,” is a good enough offering of superhero fun, but it lacks staying power and emotional resonance.

Picking up two years after Thor’s last appearance in “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the mysterious disappearance of Odin threatens to cause the apocalyptic Ragnarok, the Norse end of days. While looking for Odin, Thor is swept up in a

wormhole that sends him to the planet of Sakaar, where he’s forced to participate in a gladiatorial arena as his only means of escape. Meanwhile, the goddess of death, Hela, liberated from her imprisonment, takes over Asgard alongside her accomplice, Skurge the Executioner.

As a die-hard fan of comic book lore, it’s sometimes hard for me to accept the changes made to Marvel’s source material when it’s adapted into film. Still, if executed well like it was in “Captain America: Civil War,” I’ll gladly accept them.

In “Ragnarok’s” case the changes made to Sakaar were done well, especially in the art direction. It’s a beautiful trash heap with interesting character designs everywhere you look. I also have to mention Jeff Goldblum’s pitch-perfect Grandmaster, who’s pretty much just Jeff Goldblum in silly clothing. Tessa

Thompson also surprised me as Valkyrie, who I enjoyed watching more than I thought I would.

My praise ends there, though.

Cate Blanchett and Karl Urban are completely wasted as Hela and Skurge. Hela is one of the most forgettable characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe so far. As the goddess of death, her powers amounted to...summoning pointy objects? And of course, her evil plan was fairly shallow and derivative.

Then comes Skurge, who’s relegated to a glorified cameo role.

He’s absolutely butchered in the film compared to his badass comic book counterpart. He’s portrayed on screen as a coward lacking the stoic fealty that makes him such an interesting character in the comics. I wouldn’t have minded these changes if they made for a compelling character on the big screen,

but Urban was sadly forgettable at best in the role.

For a film centered around the epic apocalypse of Norse mythology, “Ragnarok” doesn’t take itself very seriously. This shouldn’t come as a surprise for fans of director Taika Waititi. I didn’t mind the heavy comedic angle, and I certainly didn’t feel as violated by an excess of unfunny jokes as I did watching “Guardians Vol. 2.” In fact, I laughed a lot throughout “Ragnarok.” Chris Hemsworth really benefits from this comedic approach as a quippy, self-aware Thor. This also holds true for Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner, who totally outshone his meaner, greener counterpart.

All said, the movie ultimately feels like a glorified “Saturday Night Live” sketch. There’s very little substance to be found aside

from the wacky banter between Waititi’s characters. A really interesting narrative was hinted at in Asgard’s bloody colonialist past, which could have made for a relevant critique on the glorification of past imperialistic kingdoms — especially given the prevalence of Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” in the film’s marketing.

That vein was never tapped though. Unfortunately, it seems Marvel Studios offers little food for thought, but instead chooses to give viewers a fun but shallow movie.

C&J professor receives prestigious fellowship

By Kyle Land @Kyleoftheland Michael Marcotte, professor of practice with the Department of Communications and Journalism, recently received a fellowship with the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism. Only seventeen instructors are selected each year for this prestigious honor.

Marcotte, who began teaching at the University of New Mexico in 2014, received the fellowship for his innovative work with the New Mexico News Port, a journalism lab based off the “teaching hospital” format. This format focuses on students learning new skills by being put in professional scenarios.

“For students to learn journalism, they have to do journalism,” Marcotte said.

New Mexico News Port typically focuses on one subject for an entire semester, investing all of their resources into writing stories within

the topic.

In past semesters, the themes have been Political New Mexico, Curious New Mexico and Creative New Mexico.

This semester the theme is Justice New Mexico, which focuses on crimerelated topics from around the state.

This choice comes as New Mexico has experienced a rise in crime. The News Port casts a wide net in terms of crime, covering issues from incarceration to the court system.

Unlike many news organizations, Marcotte said he does not define success for the News Port in terms of breaking large stories and garnering a large audience.

“Success, to me, is how many students we can get published… adding to (their) resume and published work,” he said.

Each person selected for the Tow-Knight Fellowship is expected to contribute a niche perspective concerning education in journalism. Marcotte’s selection came from an interest in applying the teaching hospital method to other programs

around the country.

“I (talk) about operating an active publishing enterprise within the curriculum,” Marcotte said.

The primary struggle for the News Port since its inception in 2014 revolves around funding. There is a paid staff, along with equipment needed for the organization to function.

The News Port received $35,000 in the first year from the Challenge Fund for Innovation in Journalism Education and $50,000 the second year from the Excellence and Ethics in Journalism Foundation. In their third year, however, the News Port received no funding.

“We can’t get money out of the school’s budget. There’s no discretionary spending to the News Port,” Marcotte said.

Despite these struggles, Marcotte expressed high hopes for the News Port going forward, especially with his recent selection as a fellow. The project’s Twitter page has recently seen an increase in followers due to their focus on crime-related issues.

TEDxABQWomen showcases social connections

By Rebecca Brusseau @r_brusseau TEDxABQWomen 2017 visited the KiMo Theatre Nov. 2 to explore “bridges” with presentations by female figures from across the state.

Women from a variety of professions discussed the idea of bridging a gap of inequality and understanding. The bridge is a symbol of uniting all intersections, to include communities distanced from one another and to start collaborative conversations between seemingly opposing groups.

“I think a lot of really unique ideas come from an all-women TED Talk,” said Santa Fe resident and audience member Natalie Najman. “To be able to turn that kind of focus to women is necessary, especially in a time when it is becoming apparent that there are societies and communities that are still working to keep the women’s voices silenced...When you can fill a stage with women from different walks of life and different educational backgrounds with different messages, it unites us all.”

TEDxABQWomen introduced the content by saying, “from the spines of their backs to the rich stories from their lips, the women of New Mexico inspire, empower and transform ideas into reality.

They build bridges, cross them and sometimes they even burn them.”

Comedian and author Natalie Kossar emceed TEDxABQWomen.

Speakers at this event included Val Day-Sanchez, Rosanna Dill, Magdalena Sandoval Donahue, Sidni

Lamb, Sophie Toth, among others. “(Bridges) is a very interesting theme, and it was applied very successfully among everyone, not necessarily (in) ways which I thought it would be, but I enjoyed how the speakers interpreted it,” Johnathan Najman, who also attended the event, said.

Day-Sanchez is a co-founder of All This Publications, an organization that discusses the lack of diversity representation in America. She said her approach to building bridges to inclusion addresses racism and diversity.

Her belief is that allies of those affected by racial discrimination need to recognize the changes that need to be made in society and take action to create a more inclusive world.

“Don’t just embrace diversity,” she said. “Embrace it with inclusion.”

Dill, a Las Cruces native, architect, technician and project manager, said her experiences in these professions created foundations for her belief that los buenos morales, or good manners, can bridge the gap that leads to interactions of people of all backgrounds and socioeconomic status to connect with each other.

“Los buenos morales are a sort of civil engineering which allows inclusion,” she said. “The notion of inclusion helps lead teams and projects to success, which leads to ownership, belonging, creativity and enthusiasm.”

Dill said respect was a large part of her family values in Las Cruces.

She said respect can bridge social gaps between groups that do not recognize each other’s value. She said the point of interacting with each other is not to win, but to learn

how to bridge gaps of difference.

“Let respect make peace,” Dill said, concluding her performance.

Magdalena Sandoval Donahue creates data visualization tools and science-outreach education efforts. She said science holds connections to every individual’s passion. Donahue said the process of questioning, observing and analyzing is a scientific process that can also be applied to many professions and hobbies.

Sidni Lamb and Sophie Toth closed the event. Lamb said she

uses her experience in social entrepreneurship, mindfulness facilitation, humanitarian activism and as a U.S. Diplomat to connect people with mindfulness. Toth is an award-winning slam poet, poetry mentor and advocate for empowerment, social change and the use of mindfulness.

The two speakers said the idea that mindfulness is a crucial key to understanding others and to bridging the gap of difference between generations.

Both Lamb and Toth said poetry

and mindfulness can be used together to understand others and the community.

“I want to build a bridge,” Toth and Lamb said in unison. “ I want you to see how beautiful you look from this side.”

MEN’S SOCCER

Lobos end regular season with loss to Old Dominion

By Ajinkya Patil

@ajinkyapatil_16 With their fifth loss of the regular season, the University of New Mexico men’s soccer team concluded their regular season with a 1-0 defeat against Old Dominion on Nov. 3.

The Lobos (8-5-4, 3-3-2 C-USA) now head into the Conference USA tournament having scored none but conceded one in their last three games. Two out of those three games were goalless draws against Denver and Charlotte that went into double overtime.

For a defence that has only conceded 16 goals this season and registered five shutouts, the Lobos allowed the Monarchs to get the goal just six minutes into the game. Prior to the game, the UNM defence hadn’t conceded a goal in over 231 minutes.

“It was a really disappointing result,” head coach Jeremy Fishbein said in a release. “We opened the game poorly, and just six minutes in, we had the cards against us. At halftime, we felt this was a winnable game. We played better in the second half, created some chances, but not enough.”

C-USA Defensive Player of the Week Jason Beaulieu couldn’t do much, as he watched the ball sail past him, into the back of the net after the Monarchs’ sophomore redshirt Sebastian Hauret fired the ball into the left side of the goal.

The goal was Hauret’s fourth of the season and the Monarch’s 29th of the season. They also registered their sixth shutout of the season, as keeper Mertcan Akar made three saves on the night.

The Monarchs outshot the Lobos 16-10. Max Wilschrey led the Monarchs with five shots on the night, followed by Tom Wustenberg and

Sebastian Hauret, who both registered three shots each.

The Lobos were led by redshirtsophomore Tom Smart and junior defender Aaron Herrera who each registered two shots on target. Junior Simon Spangenberg, senior Sam Gleadle and Herrera all registered a shot on goal.

“It was really disappointing at this point in the season to see that we didn’t have a little bit more about us,” Fishbein said in a release. “It really was a tough way to end the regular season.”

Old Dominion is now 9-5-2 overall and 6-2-0 in C-USA. The Monarchs

were ranked second in C-USA before the game and will remain in that place with 18 points. The Lobos on the other hand remain in the fourth position with 11 points.

Lobos will be back in action on Nov. 8 in the quarter final of the 2017 Conference USA Tournament. Their opponent has not been determined.

Cheo Torres inducted into HACU Hall of Champions

By Kelly Urvanejo @Kelly_Urvanejo Eliseo “Cheo” Torres, a professor in the College of Education and vice president for Student Affairs, was inducted into the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities’ Hall of Champions on Saturday, Oct. 28 in San Diego, California.

Torres grew up in south Texas but moved to New Mexico in 1996 to work at the University of New Mexico as the vice president of Student Affairs and has stayed in the position thereafter.

Torres said he was a member of the group that first came up with the concept of HACU in 1985, before the association became official in 1986.

“It represents Hispanic-serving universities, some 400, and it started with about 19 or so,” Torres said.

HACU includes universities from the U.S., Mexico and Central and Latin America, Torres said.

Torres said HACU is reserved

for universities that have a Hispanic student population of at least 25 percent. The group has leadership programs for students at the university and high school level. HACU also has a large internship program, where students are placed in federal government positions in Washington D.C. or in major companies throughout the country, he said.

Torres estimates HACU has served close to 10,000 students.

Interim President Chaouki Abdallah nominated Torres for the recognition.

“He knows that I’ve been very active with HACU, and he surprised me and nominated me,” Torres said.

Deyanira Nuñez, a Student Affairs coordinator, was once a part of HACU. She began working with Torres as a participant through his fellowship program in 2014. Since then, she has been helping him with some of his projects, as well as assisting him with his class, Traditional Medicine Without Borders.

Nuñez described Torres as

supportive.

“He is definitely someone that is willing to collaborate with you,” she said. “He’s willing to hear your ideas and help you get to where you want to be.”

Nuñez said Torres is very charismatic and loves getting to know people from inside and outside the University, especially with his class. She said he enjoys teaching his class and participating in his

responsibilities at Student Affairs.

Torres said he felt honored to be among dear friends, heroes and mentors that have contributed a lot to Hispanic higher education while in San Diego for the ceremony.

“I just want to thank the students that make my life wonderful here at UNM, not only Hispanics, but all students in general. It’s been a pleasure working here for 21 years and getting to watch students blossom and consider higher education as a profession,” Torres said.

He said many students who have been involved with HACU have gone on to work at UNM or at another university. Many of them have also gone on to get their doctoral degrees and are spreading the knowledge and guidance that they received through HACU. Kelly Urvanejo is a news reporter at the Daily Lobo.

Local project at UNM libraries exhibits everyday New Mexicans

By Ariel Lutnesky @ArielLutnesky The University of New Mexico libraries have added a few extra faces on the walls, smiling down at students and community members as part of a new exhibition by Humans of New Mexico.

“The Humans of New Mexico project is an online platform where we collect oral histories from everyday New Mexicans,” said Rafael Martinez, the organization’s project director. “The goal is to go around the state and talk to ordinary people about their life, their experience, their stories and traditions and culture and what it’s like in their part of the state.”

This effort allows Humans of New Mexico to share the information they have already put on their website more directly with the University audience, which helps prompt students and community members to interact with and think about communities across New Mexico, including their own, Martinez said.

Nightmare Miller, a 14-yearold hip-hop and break dancer and business owner from the Santa FeAlbuquerque area, was among the interviewees. His mother, Kathleen Perry, said she enjoyed being a part of the project.

“It was the best experience that we’ve had in a really long time,” Perry said. “Good people.

They made us feel awesome. They were interviewing my son, but they included me, which was really cool. They just made us feel like rock stars.”

“I believe it’s important for students to be able to connect with these stories, because lots of times here at UNM, or any college campus, we become isolated in our own worlds and often think about issues in very particular ways, in our own disciplines — but we don’t think about the human element, the human voice behind some of these issues,” Martinez said.

Each exhibit in each UNM library has a specialized theme that is meant to reflect the discipline of the library that houses it, Martinez said. One exhibit in the Fine Arts Library features more musicians and artists, while the Parish Memorial Library has more

business-themed features.

“It wasn’t meant to be a traditional exhibit where everything was lined up symmetrically,” said UNM Director of Access Services Cindy Pierard. “It was really meant to be where can somebody have an unexpected encounter.”

There will also be a few panel discussions with the individuals featured in the library exhibitions, Martinez said. The panelists will vary in occupation, such as artists and business owners, and age, from high schoolers to senior citizens.

Perry said that being involved with Humans of New Mexico and having her son speak on one of the panels has opened up opportunities for the both of them.

“It’s been a really good community bonding thing, so we make new friends,” Perry said.

One of the goals of Humans of New Mexico is to ensure that community members have a voice on important social issues, since many of their stories are not often heard, Martinez said.

“We hear from our key politicians and elected officials about issues, but we never hear directly from the people and how they’re experiencing the state of New Mexico,” he said.

“I think that not everyone feels like their stories are in libraries, and not everyone feels like a library is a place where they are welcome or where what they do or what they say is important,” Pierard said.

“Having the chance to work with Rafael and Maria (another member of Humans of New Mexico) on this project, I hope (we) can make the library feel more comfortable to different people and also me, as a librarian, to think about how we can give people spaces to tell their stories.”

Martinez said the volunteerbased organization, made up of students and community members, allows its participants to experience things they might not otherwise get to explore, he said.

“One of our photographers works in the construction industry — nothing to do with any of this (traditional) academic work,” Martinez said. “But he’s an amazing photographer who is self-taught, and for him to be exhibiting some of his work here, at the library, that’s an opportunity that many of

our members previously or currently don’t have.”

Humans of New Mexico projects are diverse, Martinez said.

Contributors work with photography, oral history, transcribing, video production and an audio production team that collaborates with KUNM, he said.

The project began with Martinez’ own interest in the popular social media organization that has also been mirrored elsewhere, Humans of New York, he said. He started a Facebook page and had a few interviews before realizing the potential New Mexico offered, Martinez said.

“New Mexico is very different from New York, and so our project, in my opinion, is much more oral-history-based and more indepth with the storytelling rather than (Humans of New York’s) aim, which is more street photography and more of a ‘quick snap’ of that person’s story,” Martinez said.

He said he would be interested in someday collaborating with other Humans projects.

“As far as social media and web presence, I really see our project becoming one of the leading media projects in the state of New Mexico in the long term,” Martinez said.

“I do see our project becoming the largest ongoing oral history project of the state of New Mexico too.”

“I think this is going to go far and I really believe in what is behind it,” Perry said.

Along with collaborating with community partners who find people for them to interview, the group has a link on their website that allows people to submit interviewee suggestions.

The UNM Libraries exhibition will continue through Nov. 27.

The next panel discussion will be on Friday, Nov. 10, from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. in the Fine Arts Library.

“I hope that people might engage with some of these stories, with some of these people, and through that process, come to see the wonder of New Mexico and the people who live here,” Pierard said.

By Madison Spratto @Madi_Spratto World-renowned architect Antoine Predock ensured his legacy at the University of New Mexico, where his passion for design was cultivated, by gifting his archive, work space and other personal items to the School of Architecture and Planning.

Although he was born in Missouri, Predock flourished during his years at UNM, eventually earning his architecture degree at Columbia University.

Geraldine Forbes Isais, dean of the School of Architecture and Planning, said Predock is an extremely passionate individual.

Predock is best known for his design of the San Diego Padres stadium and numerous sites around UNM, including the original School of Law building and the current SA+P building.

His recent gifts to the SA+P are his archives and the Predock Center for Design and Research.

The center includes a workshop space, design studio and gallery at his former residence in Downtown Albuquerque.

His archive is currently kept at Zimmerman Library and will be in rotation at the Predock Center in the near future.

“It’s kind of a dual-purpose gift,” Isais said. “It’ll basically be a rotating archive that’ll go in (the center), because if you have the same things, the teachings will become mundane.”

The center is projected to be ready for some “modest” course work by next semester, she said.

“We will start small, probably a couple of seminars,” the dean said. “(It’s) going to be a work in progress.”

The archives are cataloged by archivists at the library who will be working closely with the SA+P to decide what designs will be on display at the center.

“Much of the archive will be at the center, but not all of it,” Isais said. “Some of it because it’s too big.”

She said the gifts will hopefully give students the opportunity to learn from Predock’s research methods to help them grow as architects.

“They don’t have to design like Predock, but all architects try to learn context and a working methodology that helps them find inspiration for their unique voice,” she said.

Isais said the culture and soul of a place tends to merge with and inhabit an architect, which will then flow into their work.

“Predock is very much like that,” she said. “He learned when he was here about that sense and the sense of spirit.”

She described his work ethic as being centered on finding the spirit of a place in order to capture that in his designs.

Predock has designed globally, in Canada, the Middle East, China, California and elsewhere. But he told the UNM Newsroom New Mexico is his “spiritual home.”

“Each time he has to sort of reframe where he is, how he designs, what that building will do for that place and what does he want to communicate with the building,” she said. “It’s not just Predock, most architects attempt to do that

— some are just more successful than others.”

Although Predock is not a native New Mexican, Isais said he identifies with the state and New Mexican architecture.

“Every profession has its luminaries, its stars,” she said. “There are many many excellent architects, but like in any profession, there are the super stars or the cultural icons, and Predock is among those.”

She said UNM and the SA+P are

lucky to have someone like Predock willing to engage in the school and inspire students and faculty.

“His life (has) been influenced by people here, and I think that experience that he had as a (UNM) student was formative,” she said.

“By giving this gift back to the school, he is doing the same thing, it’s formative.”

She said the gifts will hold a longlasting effect on current and future students enrolled in the SA+P.

“We couldn’t have put this center together at all, as quickly as we did, without the support of the UNM Foundation, the president, the executive VP and the President’s Office here, at UNM,” Isais said. “They have been fantastic.”
