Hundreds march against hate crimes on campus

By Johnny Vizcaino @thedailyjohnnyv Hate crimes are on the rise all across the country since the end to a turbulent presidential campaign last week, and now the nation’s students are taking action, including at UNM. In a stand of solidarity against hate, University students and faculty — along with other local citizens — took part in the national #OurCampus movement against hate by staging a national walkout on Wednesday.

The event’s organizers called students to action by way of a nationally-distributed Walkout Toolkit, which lists organization methods, de-escalation tactics for demonstrators and a list of goals and demands.

“We reject this white supremacist, rapist, xenophobic, Islamophobic, classist, misogynistic, queerphobic and racist system,” a message from #OurCampus/SactuaryCampus reads. “(Our goal) is to provide a space for (minority students) to gather in power and have a platform to speak.”

The toolkit also expressed solidarity with the anti-Dakota Access Pipeline movement.

“The University must place

the safety of its students first and foremost,” the message continued.

“We are rooted in radical love for one another and a refusal to accept mistreatment of ourselves or our loved ones.”

Movimiento Estudantil Chicano de Aztlan, and KIVA Club, in

association with the Black Student Union organized a walkout scheduled to last from 3 to 8 pm yesterday, at UNM. The walkout drew hundreds of people from all walks of life on Wednesday afternoon.

After initially meeting outside

the UNM Bookstore, demonstrators holding signs and condemning the recent uptick in hate crimes and President-elect Donald Trump marched across campus to Scholes Hall, where UNM administrative offices are located, before proceeding to march along Central Avenue.

After blocking traffic at the intersection of University Boulevard and Central Avenue, demonstrators made their way back to campus.

“From Ferguson to Standing Rock, the last few years have set the stage for the future of minorities in this country,” an official statement from the National MEChA Coordinating Council reads in response to the aftermath of Election Day. “We only seek to carve a place for ourselves in this world, and too often that determination for existence is met with hostility.”

Joshua Heckman, co-chair of UNM MEChA, said it was the hate incidents that occurred on campus last week involving racially charged intimidation tactics including graffiti and other signage — as well as the harassment of a female Muslim student in Zimmerman Library — that prompted the minority student organizations to respond.

Since Nov. 8, 13 hate incidents based on race, religion or national origin occurred at UNM, according to the Office of Equal Opportunity.

By comparison, there were 34 such incidents over the previous 44 weeks.

“We’re going to have to stand together,” Heckman said. “To show that we are strong as a student

Speak Now for ASUNM sweeps senate

By Gabriela Garcia-Huff @thegreen_gablin On Wednesday, the Associated Students of UNM held its Senatorial Elections for the semester, as more than 1,600 undergraduates cast ballots for undergraduate student government leaders to represent them for a year beginning in the spring.

A total of 10 Senate seats were up for grabs, with 36 candidates eagerly hoping to fill them, but it was the slate Speak Now for ASUNM that dominated the results.

Eight of the 10 senators-elect were part of the slate. Elena Garcia, who organized it, said their success is the result of two busy weeks of preparation for the team, but she was happy with their overall campaign efforts.

“We really pushed for every single one of us,” she said. “Like, if you vote for me, vote for all of us.

People really did that. And that’s fantastic.”

Jonathan Sanchez, who ran as a part of Speak Now for ASUNM — and who received the highest number of votes with 671 — said the win was entirely a group effort.

“It was a lot of work. But we all worked together and did everything we could,” he said. “No one person did it on their own. We knew that was the only way we’d be able to accomplish anything”.

Noah Brooks, current senator and chair of the Steering and Rules Committee, was running for re-election but missed out on serving another term by less than 50 votes. He said he wasn’t too upset about the loss, however.

“I have full faith the students elected who best represented them,” he said, adding that he plans to stay involved.

Another incumbent, Sen. Hannah Williams, managed to clinch the final spot out of 10. She said she didn’t know what to expect with the results, even having gone through the process before in the past.

“I knew how campaigning was going to go, but you never know how the results are going to go. It’s exciting,” she said. “I think everyone will step up and be a great senator.”

Keith Blumenfeld, director of ASUNM’s Elections Commission, said the election process and campaigning throughout the day went off without any problems.

He said polling from the three

On the Daily Lobo website

physical locations on campus — in the SUB, Zimmerman Library and SRC Commons — saw a higher turnout than the previous year.

Blumenfeld also noted a number of people asking about the online voting process.

The Fall Senate Election in 2015 saw a total of 1,746 students participate, with 965 of those votes being cast via the newly-implemented method of voting online.

Both Blumenfeld and his assistant director, Sabrina Moore, said they noticed a curious trend in campaigning this year, with fewer people being present in Smith Plaza during voting times.

“It’s kind of an unusual election this fall because normally there are people pushing flyers all over Smith Plaza. And there wasn’t this year,” Blumenfeld said. “I don’t know if this group of candidates was just different. Maybe they kept their campaign to social media or just didn’t campaign very much and tried to rely on their friends.”

“But that’s the candidate’s choice. We give them the opportunity to campaign as long as they’re within all the regulations,” he said. “Some take that opportunity and others don’t.”

ASUNM Senate Winners Jonathan Sanchez Elena Garcia Brei Garcia Francine Briones Catriona Byrne Kyle Wrasman Parker Padilla Stetson McGahey Carlos Bejarano Hannah Williams Two proposed amendments to the ASUNM Constitution were also up for a vote.

The first, which proposed to make the spring president and vice president elections separate from senate elections by about a month, passed with 67 percent of voters approving the measure.

The second, which sought to primarily remove outdated legislative language, passed with 91 percent approval from voters.

The Elections Commission also recently conducted a student

survey questioning why students chose to or not to participate in these elections. Blumenfeld said ASUNM hopes to use this information to improve the outreach and awareness of the governing body as a whole and, by extension, improve participation in elections.

UNM seal to remain unchanged for now

By Elizabeth Sanchez @Beth_A_Sanchez UNM will continue to see the controversial Spanish conquistador and frontiersman displayed on diplomas, official documents, offices, event backdrops and campus merchandise after Tuesday morning’s meeting, when the Board of Regents announced that the University seal will not be changing any time soon.

At the meeting, the Board of Regents listened to a presentation by Vice President for Equity and Inclusion Jozi De Leon, and after, a unanimous vote approved two of six recommendations to eliminate the seal.

The approvals: appointing an inclusive committee to determine how a redesign will be executed, and creating a cost analysis plan for seal abolition and replacement.

Jennifer Marley, a junior Native American Studies student and vice president of the UNM KIVA Club, called the lack of change “unfortunate.”

“We’re really frustrated...we hoped this was a day that we would hear whether the seal would be abolished or not,” she said.

But instead, the process was lengthened.

Marley still considers this a small victory, because the campaign is being discussed — however, she also said extending the process is disappointing.

“We feel that the constant stalling of this campaign and the refusal to change the seal this far in is bigotry from the regents,” she said.

“A price was put on racism,” Marley said, when discussing the board’s focus on financial impacts, as opposed to changing the seal itself.

Addressing graduating students’ wishes to not wear the seal, the option to purchase a new diploma and a plan to transition diplomas were other recommendations that were not voted on.

Marley clarified that the style of the new seal should not be the campaign’s focus.

She advocated even for small changes, such as the basic school lettering found on notebooks and other bookstore items, because she simply would like to see any change to the seal from what it currently is.

Marley said the seal places UNM “in a bad light,” because many individuals nationwide are aware of the ongoing efforts to change it.

Marley was surprised that a

board member claimed he was not aware of the feelings of discrimination against Native Americans or issues regarding the seal, despite previous in-depth research and other information being presented to him at other meetings.

Marley said situations like these are “a classic predicament of the oppressed having to explain to their oppressor (that) what they’re doing is wrong. That should never be the case, but it is.”

The board expressed concern that not enough members of the UNM community were able to voice their opinions on the subject.

Feedback was collected through forums and email listserv requests, and 395 individuals gave feedback on the decision, with 236 voting to abolish the seal.

In response to this, Marley said the groups advocating for change took as many steps as they could to gain staff, faculty and student input.

She recalled one regent stating that the sample size of input is too small to have accurate opinions, adding that meeting a certain number of responses should not determine whether something is racist.

Marley said other seal-related topics were discussed during

the meeting, such as: the need for UNM to focus on other more serious issues, the financial cost of changing the seal in already dire fiscal times, the seal not addressing UNM’s contemporary diversity and its alleged emphasis on an oppressive past, among other concerns.

After the meeting, Marley said UNM Provost Chaouki Abdallah approached the KIVA Club, urging them not to feel demoralized, because although the process is going to be extended, the seal will be changed.

Abdallah — along with many other students, staff and faculty — has been supportive of seal abolition efforts, she said, but it can’t happen without approval from the board.

The current version of the seal does not portray Native Americans in an accurate light at all, according to Marley.

Marley called the representation of Native Americans as a bird on the seal — “really gross” — particularly because a bird is not a human, unlike the conquistador and frontiersman.

She said it is quite common to “glamorize” conquest, but it is time to challenge “the tri-cultural myth and this hierarchy that’s been in place since the late 1600s.” Marley also said that a large part of the sit-

uation is preserving the past.

“It’s an example of what it looks like when people cling to New Mexico’s divisionist history. People are afraid to acknowledge the violence of this land and what UNM was founded on. Because of that, I think their behavior is really reactionary,” Marley said.

A changed seal will bring other changes to increase racial equality, she said, because the campaign does not just focus on the seal, but also includes other steps to make the University a safer space for minority students.

She said if further efforts to change the seal are not made, she and others involved in the campaign plan on filing a Department of Justice report, as taking on legal measures may place the University at risk for losing federal funding.

Even after she graduates, Marley said she hopes to continue to advocate for a variety of topics that relate to this movement.

“As long as I’m alive, I will continue to challenge religionist history and everything that erases our people’s struggle,” she said.

He began sending her angry Facebook messages, speaking negatively of her and blaming her for his issues. She discovered the messages only after he sent more in August or September. Although he apologized in one message and asked her to forgive him, the message that followed was abusive.

After reading the messages, she attempted to block him, according to the report, but discovered he had already blocked her. Some of his messages included personal information about her that she had not disclosed to him, which concerned her. Although the male is

not a current UNM student, he still lives in the area, and the instructor is concerned for her safety.

The officer who spoke with her gave her information on obtaining a protective order. The police report will be sent to the Office of Equal Opportunity and the Dean of Students.

Domestic violence at UNM Business Center On the afternoon of Nov. 7, officers were dispatched to the rear of the UNM Business Center at 1700 Lomas Blvd. NE regarding a male subject beating a female, according to a UNMPD report.

The male was reported to have been wearing a bandana, gray

jeans and a black shirt. Upon arriving at the building, officers saw a male holding onto a female. Both subjects appeared intoxicated and smelled of alcohol. The female had dirt and leaves on her back, according to the report indicating that she may have recently been on the ground.

The male continued to hold onto the female, despite officers asking them to separate. One officer attempted to pull the female away, but the male did not loosen his grip. The male subject released her when another officer grabbed his right arm and shoulder.

While the male was being pulled away from the female subject, he

attempted to grab onto the officer who initially tried to pull the female away from him. After a brief skirmish the male was handcuffed.

The female said although the male hit or punched her, she did not want UNMPD to arrest him.

She had several bruises on her face that did not appear to be fresh.

According to the report, the female refused medical attention, and officers allowed her to exit the area.

The male was arrested, taken to the UNMPD station for processing and then to the Metropolitan Detention Center, where he was booked for battery against a household member.

CRIME BRIEFS Harassment in the Communication and Journalism Department On Nov. 3, an officer met with a Communication and Journalism instructor at the UNM Police Department station at 2500 Campus Blvd. NE, after she claimed a former student was harassing her, according to a UNMPD report. The male student, who was enrolled in a spring 2016 course, was disruptive in class and did not complete assignments. She sent an email to him in April, warning him that he would fail the course if he did not drop the class or complete extra credit assignments. He continued to take the course and did not

This course explores the genre and the history of the fairy tales in the European context. Here are our main questions: To what extent has the historical and social context shaped the form and content of these tales? How do fairy tales express social and psychological conflicts?

Were they really intended for children? What is a child, then and now?

How are gender roles portrayed? What happened to this genre in the last two centuries? How has the Walt Disney company and the film industry adapted fairy tales? And last but not least: Should we still be reading and watching fairy tales?

Muslim students more fearful now than 9/11

By David Lynch

@RealDavidLynch This story is the second in a series on post-Election Day reactions from different groups in the UNM community.

Serene Akkad was in disbelief.

She feared how she, as well as other Muslim Americans, would be viewed after this. It was something unprecedented for her community, and the potential aftershocks could be devastating.

There are two events now inked into U.S. history that this description could apply to. The first is September 11.

The second is Nov. 8, when the country that Akkad was born and raised in elected its next president — an individual who has said he wants to ban Muslims from entering the country.

Akkad, who is also president of the Muslim Student Association at UNM, watched as the election results and Electoral College vote projections came in, and like many other Americans — Trump and Clinton supporters alike — she couldn’t believe what was unfolding.

“There’s no words to describe it. How can someone with such hateful rhetoric become our president?” she said. “The president is someone we look up to, and to have someone like that come into office is just scary.”

Bayan Jaber, also a Muslim American student and MSA member, said the outcome of the election, as well as what has transpired in the days since, was only the latest development in a resurgence of Islamophobia across the country.

As the New York Times recently reported, there was a 67 percent spike in hate crimes against Muslim Americans from 2014 to 2015.

There were levels of anti-Islam acts last year not seen since the 9/11 attacks. Even before Election Day,

UNM Muslim Student Association President Serene Akkad, left, and MSA member Bayan Jaber attend an anti-hate rally in front of the UNM Bookstore on Wednesday.

Akkad said her mom would plead with her to not wear her headscarf in public.

“It takes you by shock,” Jaber said.

In some ways, nothing has changed. The group has always emphasized unity, Akkad said.

Sticking together against the sometimes hateful culture of a post-9/11 America is something Muslims in the U.S. are accustomed to.

In other ways, however, they are more fearful that their peers might view them in a negative light. The leader of their country has at times personified that culture, and because of that Jaber said she and other Muslim Americans now have to “walk on eggshells.”

“What’s scarier than anything is that people are listening to him and constantly supporting him,” Jaber said. “He’s made statements that you can’t simply apologize for

— and he didn’t even do that.”

Both Jaber and Akkad acknowledge that there will always be people who look at them differently for wearing a headscarf, or after being told they are Arab. However, they felt that the nation was progressing in the right direction, socially, under eights years of President Barack Obama in the Oval Office.

Now, Jaber said, it feels like the country has taken “10 steps back.”

When asked what a Trump presidency means for young Muslim Americans, Akkad and Jaber were at a loss for words, a silence that speaks volumes about how they say Muslims feel all the time, and now to a heightened degree.

“It’s hardly ever that we’re given a voice,” Akkad said.

Akkad said the levels of hate that they have come across now

are much higher than immediately following 9/11, a time when “no one would come out of their houses for weeks.”

Trump’s proposals from his campaign — which also included a national registry of all Muslims in the U.S. — were embraced by some, but criticized by others for containing racist undertones.

Many view his election last week as an affirmation that it’s now acceptable to lash out against others with different lifestyles.

Jaber said people should just view their Muslim peers as who they are — students exercising their freedom of speech and religion who go through the same peaks and valleys that any other college students do.

“We’re just as patriotic as the next American,” Akkad said. “We contribute just as much to American society

as anyone else. We’re lawyers, we’re doctors, we’re politicians.”

Akkad said that while she is in favor of screening people coming into the country, Trump’s proposed policy of completely banning an entire group of people crosses a line that they never knew could be crossed.

“I don’t think we ever thought that it was going to get to this point,” Jaber said. “But it has.”

Akkad, who wears a traditional headscarf, said it has never led to instigation or harmful words thrown her way before Election Day. Since then, she said people at three different places have told her to “take that thing off your head” and “you don’t belong here, go back to your country,” even though she was born and raised in New Mexico.

Jaber said in a country that encourages freedom and justice, those acts — as well as others that have occurred around the country — make the U.S. look hypocritical to the rest of the world.

For a community that can’t actively do very much about how other people perceive them, nonMuslim allies can still help, Akkad said, if by no other means than by speaking out and getting to know a Muslim American student.

“Put a face to a Muslim,” Jaber said. “Meet a Muslim, hang out with a Muslim, have coffee with a Muslim.”

And many have. After a male student recently attempted to pull the headscarf off a female peer in Zimmerman Library, the MSA received messages of support, a comforting reassurance to the group.

“We just have to stick together,” Jaber said, “and protect one another more than anything.”

Opinion Editor / opinion@dailylobo.com

LETTER The inconvenient truth of Donald Trump Editor, It has become a convenient sport to display one’s democratic colors by hurling the strongest condemnations at America’s most iconic target: Donald Trump.

The man himself not only invites, but calls for the criticism. His public posture consists, in a shameless transparency, of an unashamed mindset that digs deep into the muck of America’s bigoted history of racism, slavery, sexist misogyny, chauvinistic nationalism, militarism, burnt-earth capitalism and blood-drenched imperialism. Violence of hatred breeds more hatred of violence. Entrenched in the vicious cycle, Trump is one of few public figures who refuse to mince words. He exhibits his narcissism with an inadvertent honesty that pulls him into the spotlight of utter impertinence.

His brute honesty trumps politeness in almost all public appearances. Since he considers the direct insult a personal victory, his blunt speech abstains from mendacious

euphemisms, the traditional trademark of American Republicanism. Although this puts him at odds with the Republican Party, Trump continues to drag it toward the abyss.

He speaks his mind openly, changes opinions instantly, and repeatedly, if he sees the need to do so. This self-destructive tendency is key to his national success — and inevitable downfall.

The unpredictability of his erratic personality captured the nation as a new sensation. The media loved him for his outrageous audacity to inflict injury wherever possible as much as his party opponents feared him for the same reasons. Puppets, like Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz, beholden to their puppeteers, were defenseless against the untamed, uncultured and unrestrained liberty of fallow speech. In his white rage Trump would even speak some unpleasant truths, condemning the Iraq war and jobkilling international trade deals. The media went for the bait of his abusive temper and created a political Frankenstein they now no longer know how to contain. It is the deadly legacy of the Republican Party to have legitimized the morally corrupt and politically illegitimate by adopting the candidacy of Donald Trump. The narcissism

of his self-addiction is indeed toxic.

Has “America” fallen now too low in its happy decadence? Yes, it has. But unfortunately, it’s not the first time. The semideliberately amnesic Ronald Reagan & the infantile hypocrite George W. Bush are his most notable predecessors. The country still suffers from the Latin American carnage of Reagan’s megalomania and the illegitimate neo-conservative reign of (t)error of Bush’s pseudo-Christian fundamentalism.

To Trump’s credit, he has not murdered and displaced tens of thousands of unknown victims as Reagan has in Latin America. He has not mocked and murdered 153 defenseless prisoners as Governor-executioner Bush has in Texas to advance himself into the White House, where he became the killer of a million people in Iraq and the destroyer of nations. Although Trump shows himself readily capable of similar and perhaps even worse atrocities (if that is possible), with the promise to reinstitute Bush’s torture program and other atrocities.

As long as this country continues to relish the unwillingness of its patriotic cowardice that chronically fails to muscle up the courage to divorce itself from its own terrorism, as long as it remains addicted to the denial of

its unpleasant past, it will continue to breed its own political monsters. The list of culprits led by Reagan, Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld etc. seems endless. The fact that Donald Trump, despite his numerous and repeated self-disqualifications, has remained a viable candidate throughout the campaign speaks against the system that produced and advanced him into the White House.

Not unless the “evilution” of Donald Trump is seen in the context of the self-destructive impotence of the system and the atrocities with which it litters America’s history, can it be halted and turned to a promising future. The past is never gone. It will continue to possess and haunt us like a curse, unless we own up to it, contain it and finally in turn, possess it.

For that to happen the miracle of political repentance would have to happen. If religion has a place in politics at all, it would first have to take root here. The likelihood of such a prospect seems minuscule. Hence, it is as the British journalist Robert Fisk once famously said in a different, but related context: we must indeed “pity the nation.”

The Electoral College doesn’t show a true democracy

By Jon Lofquist @DailyLobo After 18 grueling months of election campaigning, America shocked the world and elected Donald J. Trump as its 45th president. For the fourth time in American history, and the second time in 16 years, Trump won the presidency despite receiving less votes overall than Hillary Clinton. To recap, Trump got 290 electoral votes and Clinton got 228.

Throughout the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump repeatedly stated that the electoral system was “rigged.” In fact, I think I heard that word more often than any other throughout the campaign. It became a theme in Trump’s temper tantrums. I don’t agree or stand for

Walkout

from page

anything he’s said in the campaign, but I think he has a point here. It’s worth noting that I’ve always considered myself a Republican.

What does it say about our democracy when the popular vote doesn’t win the presidency? Granted, it wasn’t by much, but still. Is it truly a democracy? It’s rather ironic when Trump slammed the election process throughout the campaign, and the electoral college specifically in the past, but now calls it “genius.”

There were commercials telling people to go out out and vote, and viral videos on social media with celebrities telling us that if we care about our future, we should get out and vote. But what if our vote is irrelevant because of the electoral college?

Let’s say you voted in Texas, which has 38 electoral votes. A majority of Texans voted for Donald

Trump and Mike Pence. So if you voted for Clinton in Texas, you could argue that your vote was entirely irrelevant. The same could be said for someone who voted for Trump in California, New Mexico or Colorado, which all voted democratic as they tend to do. If your vote is irrelevant, is that truly a democracy?

So how did we end up with such a ridiculous and controversial system? And how is it that such a system has only stirred up controversy three times since our country’s founding?

It turns out that the Electoral College is a compromise of the popular vote and the election of a president through Congress.

I highly doubt they intended to come up with a system where Trump ended up becoming our president. I think they’d be turning in their graves if they knew

how this election turned out.

Alexander Hamilton wrote in the Federalist Papers that the Constitution is intended so “that the office of President will never fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications.” It sounds like to me that this system was designed to prevent someone as unqualified and unfit to be president as Trump from actually becoming president.

The last time a candidate who received more in the popular vote and didn’t become president was in 2000, when Al Gore received about 540,000 more votes overall, but lost in electoral votes to George W. Bush, 271 to 266. We all know how that election ended and the events that followed.

Considering Donald Trump’s lack of character and moral value, and despite having repeated-

ly criticized the election system as being “rigged” throughout the campaign, I highly doubt he or Congress will make any changes to the Electoral College. I mean, why make changes if you win? What’s the point?

If this election outcome has proven anything, it’s that it is time to get rid of the Electoral College.

It’s not truly representative of the American people. Votes are still being counted a week after the election, and Hillary Clinton is still winning the popular vote. How can we preach democracy around the world if our system doesn’t allow the popular vote winner to be our next president? It’s time.

to ‘get over it’ when we are already facing real, physical violence…you don’t just get over it.”

For the past year, the deepest concern surrounding the Trump campaign was distasteful rhetoric, but now that he will be the next commander-in-chief, this is no longer a rhetorical issue, he said.

“This rhetoric is being acted upon, these are actual physical attacks being led,” Heckman said.

“This is actually a real threat that could tear families apart. It’s not something to be taken lightly.”

MEChA, KIVA Club and BSU are demanding that UNM administrators protect students, especially those who feel targeted by hate crimes and discriminatory violence, as well as calling for the immediate

expulsion of any student found to have committed a hate crime.

University President Bob Frank was seen leaving campus moments before students moved the demonstration to just outside of his office.

UNMPD officers also locked the doors to Scholes Hall before the protest arrived.

UNM Provost Chaouki Abdallah, after writing in his weekly communique that “attacks on any of us are attacks on all of us,” said about the walkout that he was glad to see students exercising their right to free speech.

While many agreed with the anti-Trump sentiments expressed during the walkout, he said other students may not, and both sides of any conversation deserve a place

on campus.

“We will not tolerate any incident against any group, or any person either because of their ethnicity or religious beliefs, or because of their political beliefs,” Abdallah said. “On either side…we all share the same value, which is that nobody at UNM should be targeted for any reason.”

He condemned all hate speech and physical threats of violence, while saying UNM administrators are working to figure out how to support everybody.

The University is a place for ideas to be debated, and for disagreement to occur, Abdallah said.

“We talk about it and we move the needle,” he said.

UNMPD Lieutenant Tim Stump said that while UNM is typically a

diverse, tolerant place, those who walk its halls are not immune to this sort of hateful behavior. He said UNMPD is here for the safety of students, and urges anyone to come forward with concerns they may have.

KIVA Club officials said the purpose of the march was to show that resistance against hate crimes at UNM is powerful, and that unity during times of a fractured nation — or in this case, a fractured campus — is vital.

body. We’re going to stand together against these hate crimes, and show people that we’re not going to stand for it on our campus.”

There is ample cause for concern when the man who has been elected to the nation’s highest office resorts to scapegoating tactics to address a nation’s problems, unjustly placing blame on the most disenfranchised members of a society, he said.

Many people are accusing those unsettled by the election’s outcome of beating a dead horse, referring to protesters across the nation as “whiny,” “sore losers” and urging them to “get over it.”

“This isn’t something to ‘get over,’ because we are seeing overt violence,” Heckman said. “To tell us

Man with gun, ammo banned from campus approached him, they saw a holstered handgun in plain sight on his right hip.The firearm, a Smith and Wesson .40 caliber semi-automatic gun, was loaded, with one round in the chamber and eight in the magazine.

Officers secured the weapon and handcuffed the subject.

When officers looked at Arushanov’s records through the National Crime Information Center, they discovered a current protection order issued against him, specifying that he is prohibited from possessing a firearm. The mandate was issued in California on Sept. 16, 2015, and is in effect until 2020.

Arushanov’s car was later located illegally parked in a handicap parking space in front of Parking and Transportation Services at 2401 Redondo Dr. NE, according to the report. Following the arrest, the vehicle was towed, and an officer took inventory of its contents.

A loaded Mossberg model 88 shotgun was found in the trunk, along

@Beth_A_Sanchez In an email sent out to UNM students on Monday night, the University advised to be on the lookout for a man who came to campus with a gun last week and was subsequently released from the Metropolitan Detention Center on Monday, according to the email.

The man, Daniel Arushanov, is not a student, and is banned from campus. He was also violating a protection order, according to the email.

According to a UNM Police report, UNMPD officers were dispatched to the SUB in reference to a male, in possession of a firearm.

Upon arrival, Arushanov was sitting alone at a table in the food court area, where there were also other students and faculty.

According to the report, he was wearing a tie, bows in his hair and an “I voted” sticker. When the officers

FOOTBALL

Lobos eye bowl game, sixth consecutive win

By Robert Maler @robert_maler New Mexico and Colorado State will square off for the final time at Sonny Lubick Field at Hughes Stadium on Saturday as the schools play for history, a potential bowl bid and the continued pursuit of a division title.

A release said the 262nd game in the history of the stadium, which opened in 1968, will be its last as the Rams expect to open their new facility next season.

Head coach Bob Davie said the game will mark another week against a team that has given New Mexico problems in the past, and provide an opportunity to show them they’ve improved.

Colorado State (5-5, 3-3 MW) has won six straight football games over New Mexico (7-3, 5-1 MW) and could earn bowl eligibility with a win.

But the Lobos are eyeing number six as well. A victory would be the team’s sixth in a row, something the program hasn’t done this millennium.

The last time the program won six consecutive games in a single season was in 1997, when the team won its first six games of the year.

Most of the current players were toddlers back then — some weren’t even born yet.

Quarterback Austin Apodaca said he was three or four years old and probably getting signed up to play in a children’s soccer league.

Over 19 years later, he was engineering a thrilling comeback win in Logan, Utah.

“Winning in general is big,” Apodaca said. “In years past, we wouldn’t find those ways to win.”

The quarterback is expected to be behind center to start the game, but Davie said he expects both he and fellow quarterback Lamar Jordan to play.

Apodaca said they have been focused on going 1-0 every week during the winning streak. He said

if the team looks ahead, then they aren’t focusing on the task at hand, so the goal is to implement the game plan and be clean in its execution this week.

The Rams will likely try to get their wide receiver, Michael Gallup, involved in the early going. Davie said Colorado State has made a concerted effort to get the ball in his hands.

“Number four has become their feature receiver,” Davie said. “It was only a matter of time before he emerged.”

He said the team also has two

really good tailbacks and, as a team, are playing as good as anyone in the conference.

Davie said the Lobos are past the point of sneaking up on opponents. He said expectations are different and the team has weathered the storm and shown they have put in the work to compete week in and week out.

“We took some shots in the gut early in the season,” he said. “Because we were able to rebound from those things...I just feel like our culture and our identity is pretty much set and etched in stone.”

Linebacker Donnie White said the defense has started to find its identity. Although the team benefited from some penalties and hard luck for its opponent last week, the defense made a goal line stand to set up the game-winning drive.

White said he is leaving everything out on the field since it is his final year. He said he feels the Lobos still haven’t played their best game yet, but with focus and preparation, the team will get the outcome it wants.

Colorado State enters the matchup coming off a 49-46 loss

to Air Force, while New Mexico just eked out a 24-21 road win over Utah State.

Wyoming’s 69-66 triple overtime loss to UNLV puts the Cowboys in a three-way tie with New Mexico and Boise State.

The game kicks off at 8:15 p.m. and will be broadcasted on ESPN2.

Men’s Soccer

Team to face Portland in first match of NCAA

By Isabel Gonzalez @cisabelg After a two-year absence, the Lobos are ready to compete in the NCAA Tournament once again.

“Hopefully I gave the impression that I believed in this team, and that I expected to be playing,” head coach Jeremy Fishbein said.

The team made it into the tournament after winning the program’s first ever Conference USA Championship on Sunday.

The Lobos took down last year’s victors, the FIU Panthers, by a score of 3-0.

“The older guys kind of grew up in the shadow of the last team that made it to the Final Four, so I think they always kind of had that weight on their back.”

Jeremy Fishbein head soccer coach The resounding win also increased the team’s RPI to 21, a huge jump from its previous RPI of 40.

“We went to that tournament to win it, one game at a time, and we did it,” Fishbein said. “We beat some quality teams. I’m proud of our guys. It kind of validates the leadership and the quality.”

The last time the Lobos played in the NCAA Tournament was in 2013, when they made it all the way to the Final Four. ”The older guys kind of grew up in the shadow of the last team that made it to the Final Four, so I think they always kind of

had that weight on their back,” Fishbein said.

New Mexico (12-6-2, 4-3-1 C-USA) is kicking off this year’s tournament by hosting the Portland Pilots. The Lobos might be hungry for a win, but their firstround opponents have seen an even longer drought, making their first tournament appearance since 2009.

Portland (12-5-1, 6-1-0 West Coast Conference) clinched the WCC’s automatic NCAA bid after winning the conference championship with a 1-0 victory over the Saint Mary’s Gaels.

The 2016 season has been a good one for the Pilots. The

conference championship was their sixth title in program history, but the first since 2002. Earlier this season, the team enjoyed a sevenmatch winning streak, its longest streak since 1995.

Portland has found the back of the net 36 times with 205 shot attempts, and forward Benji Michel leads the team with 10 goals.

New Mexico has recorded significantly more shots, 279, but has scored three fewer goals, a total of 33. The Lobos are led by forward Niko Hansen’s 13 goals, followed closely by midfielder Chris Wehan’s eight.

Both teams’ defenses look very similar on paper. The Pilots’

defense has 18 goals on 186 shots to opponents, while the Lobos have allowed their opponents 17 goals on 182 shots.

When the two teams met in 2010, then-No.18 Portland took a 2-1 victory over the Lobos. That match also took place in Albuquerque.

But a lot has happened in six years, and the Lobos have yet to lose a home game this season, holding a 9-0-1 record.

“It’s good to be home. You just feel so appreciated locally,” Fishbein said.

The Lobos haven’t lost a match in their last seven games and have come out on top in their last six matches. Five of

these results were wins in regulation time, with the other coming by way of penalty kicks.

The winner of Thursday night’s game will go on to play the Washington Huskies, who received a first-round bye after earning the No. 11 seed in the tourney. The game gets underway at the UNM Soccer Complex at 7 p.m.

FIVE & WHY What Lobos love to read with

Erin Lebacqz

By Skylar Griego @TDLBooks English teachers are known for their love of all things book-related, particularly those who teach one kind of literature or another.

While writing teachers are less

associated with the bookworm label than literature teachers are, anyone who is passionate about writing will say reading is the key to becoming a better writer.

Erin Lebacqz, a composition instructor in the Department of English, said reading is important for her as a writer because she likes to see examples of people capturing reality through words.

“The writer only does part of the job. The reader does the other part of the job, and together the two create a reality that differs according to each writer and reader,” Lebacqz said.

From the mouth of an avid reader and writer, here are Lebacqz’s five favorite books:

sion for the ways in which life is not black and white. It also talks about the connection that one might feel to the universe in general.”

1.“Siddhartha” by Hermann Hesse

3.“A Beautiful Question”

by Frank Wilczek

“I like (Siddhartha) because it briefly summarizes the ways in which someone tries to figure the ‘right way’ to live and rejects all the extreme versions, and has compas-

2.“This is Your Brain on Music” by Daniel Levitin “It’s a cog-sci [cognitive-science] book. I have a couple books in that area because I like brain science. It’s got two of my favorite topics: how thought works and how music works, and how music reflects the mathematical laws of the universe and beauty of the universe. (It talks about) how your brain makes sense of it and why you love certain songs and things like that.”

“That’s similar in that (the author) is looking for ‘does nature follow some sort of beautiful mathematical system that’s in music and sound and light and the way nature is con-

structed. So those are the ‘science-y’ books I like to read.”

4.“Notes From Underground” by Fyodor Dostoyevsky “It’s hilarious and it’s existential. He uses himself as a subject for trying to experiment with whether free will is a real thing. He uses kind of an antihero, which is himself, as the protagonist. There’s a lot of selfdisparaging comments, but it’s all toward this idea of trying to see if freedom really exists or not.

The style is really good in that way, too.”

5.“Native Son” by Richard Wright “I think it tries to help readers get into the internal experience of some of the things that are wrong with our country. If people can’t imagine that from outside, they can go into the book

and figure out a little bit of what’s wrong with the way we do things in this country from that type of a protagonist’s experience.”

Lebacqz said her favorite kinds of books are philosophical because they allow readers to interact with the words through their thoughts and allow them to experience foreign concepts via the text. She said that in this way, they present a window into ways of thinking that are otherwise hard to articulate.

“Reading and playing music are the things that I do when I would like to remember that more interesting parts of me and the world exist than the ones I see every day,” Lebacqz said.

crossword Carlsen-Karjakin: WCC 2016 (Level 2)

By Eddie Wyckoff

Magnus Carlsen vs. Sergey Karjakin, New York City, World Chess Championship, round 3, 2016; White to move and win a piece: Against the odds, Karjakin has held his own in the match so far, drawing reigning champion Carlsen in each of the first four classical games. In round 3, Karjakin nearly lost from this position, but Carlsen failed to convert the win.

Bonus (level 4): consider Black’s best response to losing the piece: is it winning the pawn on f5, or winning the pawn on b3? Why? Solution to Monday’s puzzle: 1. Re7! skewers the queen and knight, winning the Ne3 next turn.
