NSO Advising Notes Bursar If students drop ANY time in the semester to less than 15 hours, they will be billed at the higher rate. The way tuition is now (all over the place with differentials, blocks, etc.) I would stay away from giving any hard and fast numbers on how much they will be charged, etc. Encourage them to call, chat or come the Bursar office with questions.

Freshmen Learning Communities 1. Quantitative Reasoning has had a change of name, it is now Foundational Math (Sonia mentioned that Math might start taking 17s on ACT to get in to the MALL – I’m not sure on this – be sure to touch base with them, if this is included) 2. A variety of 1- and 3-credit Transition Communities. Please see a comprehensive outline below for all UNIV course codes for the Fall 2016 semester and beyond: UNIV 101 – Transition Communities UNIV 102 – Big Questions UNIV 103 – Foundational Math (was Quantitative Reasoning) UNIV 104 – Math Learning Strategies (1-credit) UNIV 106 – Critical Text Analysis

Example of an excellent note after an NSO session: NSO #8: Morgan is interested in a Math major. She brought a print out of her AP scores and they have been submitted to UNM. AP Biology score 4 = Bio 201. AP Calc AB score 5 = Math 162. Override given for Math 163. Student feels ready for Math 163 and is aware it is trig based and particularly trig heavy compared to the UNM Math 162 course. In addition to registering for M 163, also registered for UHon 121, Arth 101, PENP 171 power volleyball, Span 101. Discussed options for fulfilling Core Area 1 - only needs 1 course. She might decide to fulfill with the honors course that is available. 15 hours. No dual credit. Kelley/UCAC

Academic Foundations Course Modification Form (Formerly Blue Card)

The purpose of the Academic Foundations Course Modification Form is to allow students that have registered for a Critical Text Analysis (CTA) and Foundational Math (FM) Course to drop the course(s). Banner will not allow students to drop these courses manually. The Academic Foundations Course Modification Form allows a student to drop. There must me a valid reason for allowing the drop. The Academic Foundations Course Modification Form is used when the student has tested (Compass) out of the CTA or FM course or the student have completed a reading intensive or math course through dual credit, AP, IB or CLEP that will negate the need for the CTA or FM, or need to switch to a different CTA or FM course section. A new process has been created for signing Academic Foundations Course Modification Forms. In addition, the form has a switch section option. 1. The Academic Foundations Course Modification Form is used to allow students to drop. The form should be signed by an advisor in UCAC or the Office of University Advisement. Please note that a change is section requires a form but not a signature (see #4). 2. Enrollment Management will work with University College and the Math Department to place students failing to progress in MATH 101 into UNIV 104 Math Learning Strategies during the 5th week. 3. During Orientation Sessions: If a student needs to switch section in either the CTA or FM text or send a picture of the Academic Foundations Course Modification Form to Vanessa Harris at 5065633 with the CRN/section # that the student is registered for and the one the student want to switch to. At the end of the day, it is the advisors responsibility to make sure that Vanessa has the original Academic Foundations Course Modification Form. Students that are taking the Compass test during NSO will have their Academic Foundations Course Modification Form signed after testing by an advisor from the Office of University Advisement if the student score places them out of CTA or FM An override will be granted, if needed, for students that test out of CTA or FM after testing. This will only apply for tests taken on main campus from June 6 August 16, 2015. Testing will be available on main campus at LoboLab, Labs LoboLab (SUB Basement) ED Tech Computer Lab (Rm180 and 280) SOE ESS Suite (Rm 2094) only for SOE Students CEOP (UAE&C – 2nd Flr 255A)

University College and the Mathematics and Statistics Department

Foundational Math and Intermediate Algebra: Proper Placement + Compelling Curriculum = Starting Success! COMPASS TESTING What Math COMPASS scores do students need? Students who pass the COMPASS with a Math score of 56 are able to enroll in the MATH 101 series.

What can students do if they feel the math test scores did not place them correctly? Students who feel that their ACT or SAT scores may not be accurate may contact the UNM Testing Center to take the appropriate placement test BEFORE their orientation session.

What are the Placement tests, and where can they take it? COMPASS is a computerized, multiple-choice exam, similar to an ACT or SAT, but without a time limit. In general, each test can be completed within an hour. Students may take the test on a walk-in basis Monday through Friday, at the UNM Testing Center located in the Continuing Education Building, room 226. Testing is available beginning at 8:00 a.m. and must be completed before 4:00 p.m. Students may also take the test on a walk-in basis Mondays 1 pm to 3:30 pm at the UNM Lobo Lab in the SUB basement. There is a $3.00 fee for taking each test. Results of a test are available immediately upon completion of the exam. You may re-take the COMPASS exam up to three times, allowing for a two week interval between attempts. Your highest score is the one used for final placement. See ucollege.unm.edu about taking COMPASS for Math and Reading.

What COMPASS scores do I need?

Students who pass the COMPASS with a Math score of 56 are not required to take Foundational Math.

Other courses: College Academic Advisors can use their discretion and assess whether any college course not listed here, e.g. a science lecture, is reading intensive by determining whether the course heavily relied on textbook(s) as part of learning and grading. You may ask for a course syllabus in making that determination, or simply ask the student to describe on what exams and assignments were based. Some situations might not be as clear-cut as completing a course(s) listed above. Use your professional judgement if contradicting indicators point toward a benefit to taking CTA, such as a low ACT Reading sub-score with a test date after a course listed above was completed. Review: A University College committee will review proposals for adding courses to this list on a semesterly basis. Academic or Faculty Advisors should email ucac@unm.edu to begin the review process for particular course(s).

Core Writing (ENGL 110-120, 219, 220)1

To succeed in college and beyond, students need to become agile writers who can adapt their writing to a wide variety of audiences, contexts, purposes, mediums, and technologies. They must learn to analyze new situations and respond to them appropriately. Instead of teaching one right way of writing, we seek to make students flexible writers who can transfer what they’ve learned in 110, 111/112, 113, and 120 to new contexts and new genres. English 110, 111/112, 113 and 120 teach students to analyze rhetorical situations and respond with appropriate genres and technologies. In addition, these courses are designed to help students improve their fluency in standardized edited American English while valuing and, at times, incorporating the linguistic diversity of the various communities students inhabit. This focus on linguistic pluralism fits the mission of Core Writing, of UNM, and of an increasingly global workplace.

Course Listings English 110: Accelerated Composition (3 Credits)

Accelerated Composition introduces students to key approaches to writing. The course moves at a quick pace, often with writing assignments every week.

English 111 & 112: Composition I & II (3 Credits Each)

Composition I and II is a two-semester sequence that provides students with extra support in their writing, including more time for drafts and lots of opportunities for feedback. Students stay with the same instructor for both semesters and can begin Composition I in the Summer or Fall semester.

English 113: Enhanced Composition (3 Credits)

Enhanced composition is a 4-credit class that augments the ENGL 110 curriculum with a once-per-week “studio.” During the 1-hour-per-week studio, students meet in small groups (approximately 7 students) with the instructor to receive extra support in their writing, including working closely on their writing process and receiving immediate feedback from peers or the instructor.

English 120: Composition III (3 Credits)

English 120 emphasizes academic writing, research, and argumentation. You will design and research a project of your own and will summarize, synthesize, evaluate, and integrate secondary sources to support your own argument. You will also analyze the writing and research approaches (e.g., quantitative v. qualitative v. textual) of an academic discipline that is of interest to you. You will build on the rhetorical approach introduced in English 110, 111/112 or 113 by continuing to analyze rhetorical situations in terms of audience, contexts, purpose, mediums, and technologies and apply this knowledge to your reading and writing. You will also extend your understanding of how writing and other modes of communication (such as visual and audio elements) work together for rhetorical purposes.

English 219: Technical and Professional Writing (3 Credits)

English 219 introduces students to the different types of documents found in the workplace. Students focus on how to analyze and understand readers; needs as well as develop a coherent structure, clear style, and compelling page layout. Students learn useful writing and research strategies they can use as they write correspondence, procedures, resumes, presentations, proposals, and multi-page reports.

NSO Advisor Guide

2016


English 220: Expository Writing (3 Credits Each)

English 220 is an intermediate writing course designed for students who have passed 110, 111/112, or 113, and 120, and who wish to improve their writing skills to meet the demands of academic writing across the disciplines; Course readings and assignments should provide students with opportunities to study and practice various rhetorical forms, and teach students the rhetorical foundations necessary for adapting writing to any situation.

Student Learning Outcomes

The following are the approved learning outcomes for our core curriculum courses:

English 110, 111, 112, 113

Throughout the semester in English 110, 111, 112, or 113, you will progress toward the following student learning outcomes:

Writing as a Social Act

B. describe the social nature of composing, particularly the role of discourse communities at the local, national, and international level

Writing as a Process

C. use multiple approaches for planning, researching, prewriting, composing, assessing, revising, editing, proofreading, collaborating, and incorporating feedback in order to make your compositions stronger in various mediums and using multiple technologies

Grammar and Usage

D. improve your fluency in the dialect of Standardized Written American English at the level of the sentence, paragraph, and document E. analyze and describe the value of incorporating various languages, dialects, and registers in your own and others’ texts

Reflection

F. evaluate your development as a writer over the course of the semester and describe how composing in multiple genres and mediums using various technologies can be applied in other contexts to advance your goals

Research

MATH 180-section 009 “Calculus for the Life Sciences” Tuesday/Thursday, 9:30-10:45; CRN: 18418 ~Need Special Approval Override from Dr. Wearing – please email her at hwearing@unm.edu~ This special course is designed to teach Biology majors the importance of understanding and incorporating mathematical ideas into their study of biological processes. The integration of calculus, the study of dynamic change, and biology, the study of life, provides the foundation for the concept of modeling, the focal point of the course. The biological themes of growth, diffusion, and selection are followed in the course textbook through analysis of the three major mathematical models: discrete-time dynamical systems, differential equations, and stochastic processes. In this course we will develop an understanding of measurements, and determine how functions express relationships between these measurements. The value of understanding basic properties of functions, including rates of change, limits, derivatives, continuity, optimization, and integration, will be revealed through examples and problems drawn from biology and medicine.

Honors College Freshman Information If your student has attended the Honors Orientation and was accepted into the Honors College, he or she should have permission to register for an Honors Course. Freshmen typically enroll in an Honors Legacy course in the fall because it is a prerequisite for all subsequent Honors courses.

All Honors Legacy courses (UHON 121) count for HUMANITIES core regardless of topic. UHON 121 is pre-req for all Honors courses. Honors Courses in other Core areas: Honors courses numbered in the 200s count in other core areas. Some 200-level Honors courses are offered this fall, but most are offered in the spring (because Legacy is a pre-req). Special information for STEM students:

Honors Legacy courses and Honors Natural and Physical Science Core courses (UHON 203) and Math Core (UHON 202) DO NOT meet math and science prerequisites in STEM disciplines. STEM students will meet their Science and Math core requirements in courses offered in their major departments. Non-STEM students:

Honors students who intend to major in non-STEM fields are encouraged to take UHON 203 (Science Core) and/or UHON 202 (Math Core) in the spring. Honors Natural and Physical Science Core courses (UHON 203) and Math Core (UHON 202) are primarily intended for non-STEM majors.

All students:

If a student’s major degree plan includes Core courses, the student will earn that Core there. Honors courses DO NOT substitute for the introductory courses in specific disciplines. They are primarily intended to satisfy Core outside of the student’s intended major. An example of an incoming freshman Honors student’s schedule:

Fall Semester: Honors Legacy (Humanities Core) Pre-requisites in the student’s major (possibly Core) Pre-requisites in the student’s minor (possibly Core) Electives or second major

Spring Semester: Honors Core in area NOT in student’s major or minor degree plan Honors Core Writing Courses in major and/or minor

More information about Honors Courses is on the website: honors.unm.edu or call the Honors Department at 7-7409.

Course Fees, as prescribed in UNM Policy 8210.3.2, “are intended to help defray costs specifically associated with certain courses and are not intended to replace general operation costs, which are paid from tuition.” They are approved by the Provost/Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs or the Chancellor for Health Sciences (UNM Policy 8210.3.2.8). Curricular Fees, as prescribed in UNM Policy 8210.3.2.2, “are charged to support curricular needs in the department, college, or school. The fee funds short-term and long-term needs for the purpose of instructing students, including technology, broadly shared materials and equipment, and other expenses relevant to multiple courses in a program.” They are a type of course fee, therefore, are approved by the Provost/Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs or the Chancellor for Health Sciences.

Success Coaching Program http://success.unm.edu/success-coaching/index.html Coaching at the University of New Mexico to ensure students fully take advantage of their college experience. We work with students to clarify academic, personal, and professional goals. We then partner with students to develop a step-by-step strategy to foster an excellent college experience that eventually leads to graduation and the life of their dreams. Types of Coaching: 1. Lobos Unidos Peer Coaching – We have 6-8 peer coaches assigned to first year, full time students who may have one or more remedial courses. Coaches will reach out to students for enrollment in the program when classes begin. We will recruit and aim for coaching 100+ students. 2. Volunteer Academic Coaching – We will have 40+ volunteer coaches (administration, staff, faculty, juniors, seniors, retirees, and alumni) who are matched with a student to provide coaching for the full academic year. The goal is to coach 40+ students dependent on how many volunteer coaches are available. 3. Provost Office Research Study – All first year, full time students will be recruited to participate in a study that will be conducted through the first semester. The study is to better understand the relationship between building time management skills and a time management smart phone app when paired with success coaching. The goal is to recruit 150 students who will be randomized into one of three categories: control group (no coaching and no time management application), coached only group (no time management application), and app and coaching group. How to Refer Students: 4. Please refer students to the following people for coaching services. An academic Coaching Referral has been created in LoboAchieve. Please use the referral option for tracking purposes. a. Lobos Unidos – Armando Bustamante, El Centro de la Raza b. Volunteer Academic Coaching – Jennifer Gomez Chavez / Vanessa Harris, Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion / Office of University Advising c. Provost Office Research Study – Maria Stutsman y Marquez, Enrollment Management 5. Please Volunteer to be an Academic Coach, contact Jennifer Gomez Chavez or Vanessa Harris to sign up.

Condemned

A town official came to our home one day. It was a kind of inspection since my father was itching in those years to build an addition to the original house, and he needed certain permits. When the white man arrived, he had a clipboard in his left hand and began examining windows and fire alarms, then frowning and scribbling notes. Our house sat in a small corner of northern New Jersey, and it was a very old house. It had no basement, no closets, no doors on the bedrooms. The living room was a box of a place and the kitchen took up most of the first floor. Standing there in our kitchen, the town official muttered, "This house should be condemned." My mother wanted to know what he had said. "Qye dijo?" "Nada." I don't remember now if I actually said, "Nothing," or if I stayed silent. I was about twelve at the time and I didn't know the Spanish word for condemned. I didn't have a word in our language that would say, This photograph on the wall, this pot of black beans, this radio we listen to each day, these stories you tell us-he's saying none of this matters. It should not only be thrown

away but bulldozed.

I began writing this memoir in 2000 when the feminist magazine

Ms. gave me a regular column in its pages. I was twenty-five and terrified to write for real people who might condemn me, so I wrote about what I thought I knew, like why my mother didn't call Xl

herself a feminist and why we wanted advice from women who talked to dead people. When my contract with Ms. ended, I continued writing. I wanted to understand my mother's questions and my auntie who thought I was una india and my father who drank too much. I needed to see on paper the women and the father I had loved and resisted and betrayed, and to write them without the mancha of a white man who thought our lives and our stories should be bulldozed. I wanted, too, to testify. To say: This happened. These quiet stories were taking place when the suits in Washington were waging their private wars in Central America, when they began shoving the border into the desert, when they insisted, "Don't ask, don't tell," when they signed NAFTA and everyone began seeking the safety of corners. My mother and father prayed harder. My auntie told another cuento. I wrote it all down. To believe that my story, our story, any story stood by itself was dangerous. Feminists taught me this. Journalism confirmed it. Journalism: A fancy word to say that I spent days with my hands in other people's stories, asking and telling, because nothing happens in isolation, especially when it has to do with language. Nothing is more vulnerable than the words in our mouths, because nothing has more power.

They come for me in a station wagon. My mother already has me dressed in a navy-blue plaid jumper and a white blouse. She has yanked my dark hair into pigtails and now makes the sign of the cross on my forehead before turning me over to a skinny lady, who ushers me into the backseat of the station wagon. I join a small group of children, mostly Cuban, all of us dressed alike, our eyes bright and nervous. The station wagon lady drops us off at the steps of a gloomy castle in Union City, New Jersey: Holy Family Catholic School. The y~ud is hemmed in with black iron bars and the front doors are made of steel. Women in dress pants roam the cement grounds like fat hens with their wings clipped, their beaks pointing and gesturing. I huddle with the other children in packs of three and five like scared chicks. Miss Reynolds is the kindergarten teacher. She has glasses that make her eyes look like oversized buttons on her face, and she speaks the funny language that comes out of the television set at home when we are not watching telenovelas or the noticias, which is to say that she talks like the cartoon character Mighty Mouse. It is English, a language that sounds like marbles in the mouth. It is fun to hear, but mostly because the mouse on the TV screen is flying. Sitting in the classroom, I wait for Miss Reynolds to start talking like my mother. In Spanish. Surely it won't be long now. An hour passes. Two hours. An entire day it feels, and still it is all Mighty Mouse.

one holds a picture and a word: dog, cat, house. I am to repeat each word after the teacher. In Spanish, we have cartas. Tia Rosa's husband uses them to talk with the spirit world. The cards tell us about jobs that are about to arrive, ancestors who are unhappy, a case pending with immigration. The cards are paper doors only special people can open. I look at the white woman's cards and listen to her bold English words-dog, cat, house--and there is all the evidence of what is to come in my life. I am not to go the way of the two people I long for in the thick terror of the night. The first man I love and the first woman I adore, my father and my mother with their Spanish words, are not in these cards. The road before me is English and the next part too awful to ask aloud or even silently: What is so wrong with my parents that I am not to mimic their hands, their needs, not even their words?

I am familiar with the language. I even speak a few words of it. But I have never heard so much of it all at once. It's like being forced to watch the same cartoon all day long.

I don't know if this is what actually happened on my first day of kindergarten, but it is what I remember of my first two years in school. A few memories can be confirmed by research and on-site inspection: Mighty Mouse on television, the school's black iron bars. My mother verifies the station wagon lady and the ethnicity of the other children, and school photographs offer details of the uniform and my teacher's face. There are, however, missteps in memory, places where emotion has distorted people, sights, even cuerpos. In a school photograph, for example, my teacher is a skinny, androgynous white woman with thick glasses. But I remember her as a fat hen, a flying mouse, and kindergarten as the beginning of the end.

Before language, there is love. Before love, memory. A teacher comes for us one day. Just two of us. Me and my friend, a thin, pixie-faced girl. I don't know why we are being taken from class, but in the darkened hallway as we find ourselves farther from our classroom, my friend starts crying, and hers are not baby tears. They are full blast, llorona wails. She roots herself to the ground and refuses to take one more step. The teacher begins dragging her by the arm, but the harder the woman pulls, the more my friend yells and twists, and for an instant, it looks as if her left arm is threatening to rip from her body, as if she will choose self-mutilation over what is to come at the hands of white women. As for myself, I don't fight. I follow. In an empty classroom, the white woman pulls out a deck of cards with pictures and words. She spreads the cards on a broad table, one by one. The sun is pouring through the window and coating us in a yellow liquid, but I can decipher the cards. Each

What I know of the world before kindergarten is the uneven sidewalks of Union City, New Jersey. The shop with its fat chickens hollering at us and nipping at the wire cages. The sharp smell of chicken blood when the little beasts are killed in back and brought in white plastic bags to my mother. The fabric store with its bins carrying spools of thread like a Cubana holding up the ends of her apron. The buses that snake up and down Bergenline Avenue. The store jammed with cigars and wrinkled men and women folding the ends of the thick brown leaves. Our national language is Spanish and there are many kinds. Mostly it is the firecracker Spanish of my Cuban father and his friends. It smacks the air and the back of my head and the inside of my ears. There is also the Spanish of the Puertorriquefio Tia Rosa has married. His words mimic popcorn when it first begins popping. Finally, there is Colombian Spanish. My mother's

language does not crack or bounce. It stays close to the earth, to thick hands and the smooth sides of stones. English has a place here. It is the language of minorities, and you hear it every now and then, mostly from Mighty Mouse on television or the older kids on the block. English is a game of marbles. The words shoot after each other. They bump and plod and leave tracks on the ground, and it is a decent game, English that is, but everything real happens in Spanish: the way women complain about thefdbricas where they work, how they yell at you to not play in the street, how they drag you into the house when the sky turns a velvet black, lying to you: "Ahorita sales otra vez." Terrible things happen in Spanish. My father and his friend get drunk, slur their words, and turn into screeching birds. Rage is an awful habit in any language, I suppose, but on our street, in our home, in Spanish, it takes on awful proportions, and the mothers complain to each other in shorthand: "OJte se va 'cer?" The reply is always the same: Asi son los hombres. Women are different. Union City is filled with virgins. La Caridad, La Altagracia, La Virgen de Chiquinquira. They come from Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Colombia. Like us, they are a matter of multiplicity. There is never one of anything in this world. There are many virgins, many women, many sounds in Spanish. Dollars, though, are a constant. In the kitchen, my mother folds aluminum foil over dollar bills and packs them into envelopes. The dollars are to be mailed with letters to her mother in Colombia. We send dollars because of the wars. It is the eighties and there are two wars. The one in Colombia is about land and poor people. The other one, the Cold War, means my mother and I cannot travel to Cuba. "It isn't safe," my father says in between puffs of his thick cigar.

We travel instead to Hialeah, Florida, and Mami and I go together by plane to Bogota and Boyaca, and by train to Queens and Manhattan. By the time I start kindergarten, I feel these places and NewJersey are part of the same country. Everyone lives within its borders, speaks Spanish, and eats a lot of fried pork. In the evening, my mother turns on the television for the noticias. The stories arrive from Latin America. Women with missing teeth cry into microphones. Men with brown faces scream. Los nifios carry younger children. Sometimes, it is only the image of men's feet in their shoes and the white sheets covering the rest of their bodies. The women wail behind the reporter, who talks about the number of dead and those left behind. "Ay, los pobres," my mother whispers, before turning her eyes and her pregnant belly away from the television screen. But I don't look away. I want to see what it is all about, because my mother comes from that place in the television set and so does my father. Those places where the floor is a thick brown soil and men's bodies disappear save for their shoes.

At Holy Family, report cards are made of heavy stock paper and folded once with your name handwritten on the cover. Inside, Miss Reynolds has seared the letters U and I across the squares, because, according to her, I am unsatisfactory or need improvement in starting work promptly, reading books, accepting responsibility, speaking English, and, yes, even singing. Nine months later, every line of my report card is filled with the letter S, the curves leaning into my new future. Satisfactory. The only category that eludes me is the "oral expression of ideas." The ability to speak English. There Miss Reynolds has written a tilting but nevertheless insistent I. Improvement needed. My mother searches for the only English words she knows on the report card: parent signature, and there in her best penmanship learned in Colombia, she signs her name: Alicia Hernandez.

We are both proud of her signature. The poverty in Latin America means that many people do not know how to sign their names, let alone read or write. Penning your name is a sign of progress, no matter what you are signing.

rize nursery rhymes and numbers, and I sit on my bed with vocabulary books, committing to memory nouns, adjectives, and adverbs, while in the kitchen, my mother hollers, "Lleg6 Walter!" Walter Mercado arrives on the television screen. He has blond hair that has been set with hairspray into the 1980s look of being eternally windswept. Thick layers of foundation coat his pale face, and a deep coral lipstick shapes his lips. He sports elegant suits and over his shoulders capes studded with glittery piedras that look like rhinestones, diamonds, and emeralds. Each cape is said to be worth ten thousand dollars. But Walter is like us. He speaks Spanish. He looks directly into the television camera and into our hearts, lifts his right hand, and, quickly and authoritatively, proclaims our daily horoscope. We can expect a gift. We can expect the doors to open. We can expect good health. Walter Mercado is normal. White women are a different story.

My mother makes recordings on cassette tapes to ship to her sisters and mother back home. She documents local gossip, my father's business ventures, and me at the age of four recounting the story of Little Red Riding Hood in Spanish. She insists I say something in English. Anything. But I am four. All I know are a few numbers. She says that's fine. I begin: "One, two, three, four ... " I pause, turn to my mother. "Y despues que va?" Her voice, an accented English that so many years later strikes me as the voice of a stranger, replies, "Five," and I repeat the word. She says, "Six," and I repeat it, my voice dancing after hers, until we reach the number twenty. Numbers are important in our lives. There are the two black garbage bags filled with fabric that a man brings to our apartment every few days. The dozens of women's pants my mother can produce on her Merrow sewing machine. The hundred dollars she is paid when the man comes for the bags at the end of the week. Numbers are why my mother came to New Jersey, why she spent nights crying, wishing she could go back to Colombia, to her mother.

We move, as Mami would say, al Norte. In 1982, this means about five miles north of Union City and four miles from the George Washington Bridge. I am seven years old, and Papi has found the two-story house with no basement or closets. Our ow.n home, and in the front yard, a tree. A few blocks away is the factory where he works nights. A block away is my new school. Into the large shed in the yard, Mami squeezes her two sewing machines and plastic bags of telas and extra bobbins and scissors and fat spools of thread. Fairview is a quiet town, a white town, an English-only town. The neighbors bring us tomatoes. "They think we're Italian," my mother giggles, as if she has snuck a puppy into her parents' house. In Fairview, white women teach at my school and shop at a place called Macy's. They go to Florida in the winter, even though they have no cousins there. They have aunties who do not live with them, and they are not like the white kids in my class whose

The author Minal Hajratwala has written, "Perhaps only we of the next generation-raised among strangers, eating the fruits of our parents' risks-can taste the true proportions of bitter to sweet." By the end of kindergarten, my mouth is full of fruit, and as each year arrives, I stuff myself with more English words. I memo-

My mother tells me that my new friend has called. When I reply, "La vtry a !lamar pa) tras," Tia Maria de jesus, better known as La Tia Chuchi, puckers her bright lips. In Spanish, she lectures, "You never say, 'I am going to call you back.' Eso es del ingles." The verb, she declares, is devolver. "Voy a devolver la llamada." If Tia Rosa is there, she comes to my defense, wrapping me up in her arms, the top of my head smashing into her large bosom. "Leave the girl alone," she says to her sisters, crooning like a bird at her nest. For a moment, I believe this auntie will call a cease-fire. But no, Tia Rosa thinks the war is over. "Stop bothering the girl. She's Americana." She pats the top of my head hard, as if I were mentally disabled. My mother is different. She believes in truces, neutral zones, even treaties. Together, we stick the Spanish el or la before English nouns, producing words like el vacuum, el color purple, la teacher. We say, "Abra la window," "Papi estd en el basement,"y "Ya pagamos el mortgage." This is not easy. It takes time, negotiation, persistence. In.the morning, late for school, I call for my mother, alarmed. I can't find mi folder.

grandmothers speak Italian and walk them to school in the mornings. The white women's grandmothers are dead. When they mention Poland, Ireland, or Germany, it sounds like they are talking about a sock they lost in the laundry. They are white now. American. They have no history, no songs, no past. But they do have power. They have the sharpness of chalk, the sting of chemical cleaners for the blackboards, the clean earth smell of sharpened lead pencils. They have the respect of my parents. By virtue of their English and the light color of their faces, these teachers determine the words that creep into my dreams at night. I envy them. I want what they have. I want my words to matter.

My mother's sisters come and go over the years, but finally they arrive, one by one, to stay. No more back and forth. They have no children and no husbands in Colombia. Their mother is dead. Their father, too. They are three pieces of thread cut from the spool. Tia Dora. Tia Rosa. La Tia Chuchi. The three were school teachers in Colombia. Tia Dora is the youngest, a piece of silk hilo. In Jersey, she scrubs toilets for a white lady down the shore and later gets a certificate to teach Spanish. Tia Rosa is the oldest, with hair like black cotton and tacones with thick heels. She cleans up after a white woman in the city. Tia Chuchi wears lush red lipstick to church every day and has stories better than the Bible's. Like my mother, she stitches sleeves to women's blouses at the factory. When the three aunties are home, they dote on my baby sister and work on me and my Spanish. I call the carpet la carpeta, and Tia Dora shakes her head. She lifts her thin, fairy-like hands. "Se dice a!fombra," she says, and then slowly pronounces the word for me: al-:fom-bra. Carpeta is the word for folder.

"Tuque?" "El folder," I answer, panicked. "Donde pongo mis papeles pa) la escuela) Mami." "Ah) el folder," she says, quietly repeating the English noun to herself.

I begin resenting Spanish. At first, it happens in small ways. I realize I can't tell my mother about the Pilgrims and Indians because I don't know the Spanish word for Pilgrims. I can't talk about my essay on school safety because I don't know the Spanish word for safety. To share my life in English with my family means I have to give a short definition for each word that is not already a part of our lives. I try sometimes, but most of the time I grow weary and finally sigh and mutter, "Olvidate." Forget it.

This is how Spanish starts annoying me. I suppose it's what happens when you're young and frustrated, but you can't be angry at the white teachers because that would get you nowhere, and you can't be too upset with your parents because they want what they think is best for you. Spanish is flaca and defenseless, so I start pushing her around, then hating her. She's like an auntie who talks louder than everyone else, who wears perfume that squeezes your nostrils. I want her to stop embarrassing me. I want her to go away. That's how the blame arrives. I blame Spanish for the fact that I don't know more words in English. I blame her for how bad I feel when the white teachers look at me with some pity in their eyes. I blame Spanish for the hours my mother has to work at the factory. "If only I knew English ... " my mother starts, and then her voice trails because none of us, not her, not even La Tia Chuchi, who knows everything about everyone, knows what would happen if only my mother knew English. I am the one who is supposed to find out. But to make that leap, to be the first in a family to leave for another language hurts. It's not a broken arm kind of hurt. It's not abrupt like that. It's gradual. It is like a parasite, a bug crawling in your stomach that no one else can see but that gives you a fever and makes you nauseous. Because I have to leave Spanish, I have to hate it. That makes the departure bearable. And so I never learn to read or to write the language. I never learn more than the words my family and I need to share over the course of a day-pasame la toalla, la comida ya esta-and the words spoken on the nighdy news, the telenovelas, Radio Wado, and Sabado Gigante, which all combined leave me with a peculiar vocabulary of words in Spanish about dinner foods, immigration law, romantic fantasy, and celebrity gossip. As I become more immersed in English, I also start to distance myself from my family through unconscious gestures. I walk

13

around the house with headphones on my ears and a book in hand. I speak only in English to my litde sister. I eat my arrozy friJoles while watching the TV sitcoms Diff'rent Strokes and Facts qf Lift. The two shows-centered on children who don't have parents and are being raised by white people-make sense to me. I begin to convince myself that I am like my white teachers: I have no history, no past, no culture. My father, however, still worries that I might become like him. Sitting in the kitchen, slighdy drunk, mosdy sober, he grabs my arm. I am nine at the time, and he has my report card in his hand with the letter Fin social studies. "You have to study," he says, his brown eyes dull and sad. "You don't want to end up like your mother and me, working in factories, not getting paid on time. You don't want this life." His life. My mother and my tias' lives. And yet I do-though not the factories or the sneer of the white lady at the fabric store who thinks we should speak English. I want the Spanish and the fat cigars ¡and Walter Mercado on TV every night. To love what we have, however, is to violate my family's wishes. Years later, an Arab American writer smiles knowingly at me. "You betray your parents if you don't become like them," she tells me, "and you betray them if you do."

If white people do not get rid of you, it is because they intend to get all of you. They will only keep you if they can have your mouth, your dreams, your intentions. In the military, they call this a winning hearts-and-minds campaign. In school, they call it ESL. English as a second language.

room the table is the color of wet sand, and the teacher nods at us. She has books and consonants and vowels. I memorize more words. I roll the marbles in my mouth and spit them out on tests and at English-only friends. I get a card to the town library and start checking out books by the dozens. I come to know the way the words in English hit each other on the page, and I begin reciting lines from Romeo and Juliet. This affection for English happens the way some women talk about their marriages: you do it at the beginning because it's practical, because you need the green card, because all the jobs are here, but then the vi~o grows on you. You come to know the way he likes his cafi or how he snores when he's having a bad dream. That is how it is for me with English. The affection comes later and settles in.

my mother and her sisters were raised, it means the dead person is not your family. Everyone there knows the dead need four velas to light the corridors from this life to the next, and it is the responsibility of the dead person's family to bring those four candles and place them alongside the body. If the dead person is not your auntie or your prima or your own mother, then you should mind your business and not add your candles to someone else's funeral. Words and dichos are like the spirits of the muertos. They belong to a specific time and place, but they move. They fly. They survive colonization and poverty. They adapt themselves to new geographies, flourish even. When I tell my father that I am going to be a writer, he whistles and says, "Ahara si que esta tostada." Literally, this means I am toasted; it is the way Cubans say you've gone crazy.

My mother warns me to not drown myself in a cup of water. "No te ahogues en un vasa de agua" could be translated as "Don't sweat the small stuff," but because I am learning English from British novels and hours spent diagramming sentences, I don't know American idioms. I don't know how other children are counseled to not worry about a lost pen. I only know that, according to my mother, I shouldn't mistake a glass of tap water for the deep end of the swimming pool. Quietly, over the years, I create literal translations in English for everything my family says in Spanish. Echate la bendici6n. Throw yourself into the blessing. Dios le da carne al que no tiene muelas. God gives meat to those who have no teeth. Me ronca el mango. The mango does something terrible to you. When I consult my sister, Liliana, about a friend's dilemma, she shakes her head. "No tienes velas en ese entierro," she answers solemnly. You don't have candles at that funeral, and if you don't have candles at a funeral in Ramiriqui, Colombia, where

Everyone wants to go to England, but go to Scotland." I nod, as if my family sits around watching Sabado Gigante and debating vacations to Europe, but in a way, Mrs. Spielvogel gives me the idea. Maybe I could go to Europe someday. Maybe I could even leave New Jersey. My father doesn't know how tostada I am becoming by being in school all day, year after year, with white teachers. Or maybe he does. In high school, I tape a picture of an electric typewriter to the refrigerator and he buys it for me. The exact model. An

The white people look whiter than before. Their English sounds sharper. I feel dark, small, and confused, and I begin to suspect, perhaps for the first time, that happiness is not going to come from this place or from English.

IBM. He grins, watching me type my paper on Oscar Wilde, on the playwright's time in prison for being gay and this line from a poem of his which I don't understand but somehow makes sense to me: "Each man kills the thing he loves." My father observes me for a few seconds bending over the electronic typewriter, then retreats to the kitchen for a can of Budweiser.

This is the point in the story where you try to make things right, where you think you can still be the hero, where you believe, however naively, that the solution is to fix the past. I register for a Spanish class at the Instituto Cervantes in Manhattan. There are about six students in a course designed for people who grew up speaking Spanish but didn't formally study the language. The teacher is a tall Espanola with thin legs and an interest in bilingual education. She gives us a topic and lets us talk freely for twenty minutes. We begin chatting and debating in Spanish as if we were in our mothers' kitchens, the platanos frying on the stove, Primer Impacto on TV. Finally, la prqfesora interrupts us. That was good, she says kindly; and I almost believe her until she writes on the board all the Spanglish words we used and a string of verbs we didn't conjugate properly. Our syntax is English; our Spanish words those of a five-year-old. For the pop quiz, she gives us a paragraph in Spanish. Make any corrections you see necessary. I start reading, my pen ready, but I don't pause when I reach the line that someone's going to "parquear el carro." Of course, they're parqueando; how else would you say you're parking a car? "Estacionar," la prqfesora tells us. The other students and I glance at each other nervously and try saying the new word aloud. We're going to estacionar the car. The word sounds strange, because all the words I hear in Spanish have primos in English. It is impossible to hear a word in one language without a reference to the other, and so "estacionar the Honda" sounds like I'm trying to park the car at Grand Central Station.

I enter the book publishing industry after college in the late nineties. I open mail for book editors, write rejection letters, and proofread flap copy. I spend day after day immersed in manuscripts, and at the end of every two weeks, I am paid on time. My mother beams. "And they pay vacaciones?" she asks. "And sick time, too?" Yes and yes. She is happy for me, and I am expecting to feel the same. This job, after all, isn't just a job. It is the whole point of having learned English. This job is the reason Rosa Parks sat down and Dolores Huerta stood up and why my parents migrated here: so that people like me could work in places like this. It is a given that any moment now, I will feel a gush of joy and accomplishment that will be at once personal, communal, and historical. I imagine it will be like when Ed McMahon shows up at people's homes with a billboard-size check from American Family Publishing and the white woman or the black woman starts screaming and crying and hitting her husband on the shoulder. I expect it to feel that good. Instead, I find myself one day in the conference room, listening to a presentation about upcoming books. It's late in the afternoon already and they are debating what will make one book sell better than others on the market. I'm sitting by the window, and soon the room begins to feel too warm. The sunlight is filtering in through the blinds, making me squint. I close my eyes for a second, and when I open them, the whole scene before me has shifted, has come into a different focus.

I stand at the door, speechless. The place where I began to learn English, to become white, has itself grown brown, Spanish, indigenous. I know this has to do with patterns of white flight, of migration, of global politics, but for that moment, I am five years old again and back home. There is no one of anything. There are many languages, many kinds of Spanish and English, of brown women and borders that do not shift beneath our feet but simply grow with every step we take. Notebook in hand, I knock on the door.

I begin reading in Spanish for the first time, and seeing in writing words I have only known in the mouths of the women who raised me.

champu, ardilla, toalla cepillo, colerete, blusa desbaratar, huecos, lunar Because Spanish has been only an oral language for me, it is a peculiar sensation to read it. It's like meeting an auntie atJFK who has just arrived from Colombia. She hasn't seen you since you were a toddler, but she hugs you as if the two of you were intimate, de confianza. And you are. You are strangers who have a shared history. People say you look alike. Tienen la misma cara. The tia inspects you with a grin, pinching your cheeks, like you once really did know each other. That's how it feels to read Spanish now. It is to be in the embrace of someone who loves you and who is also something of a stranger. Twenty years after kindergarten, I return to Holy Family Catholic School. The building is not as gray or as large as I remember it, but the fear is still there in my throat as I march up to the school door. I try to shake it off and focus. I am a student journalist reporting on the growing Mexican community in Union City, and I need to act professional. At the front door, a brown woman peers down at me: La Virgen de Guadalupe. The school has been closed and is now El Centro de Guadalupe. An image of the Mexican virgin is taped to the door with an announcement about an event. Her hands, como siempre, are clasped in prayer.

At fifteen, I land my first job. At McDonald's. Learning the register's grid with its Big Macs and value meals is easy, like picking up the mechanics of playing PacMan. My fingers memorize the grid so that in a few weeks I am considered what the managers call "one of our fast cashiers." At the end of my shift, I feed my card into the time clock, and then stand next to the manager's desk to hear how much money is in my till from the day's orders, hopeful that it will be higher than the white girl who has been here longer and can handle more customers. I love my job. I love that it's not a job. It's the start of something, not the American Dream exactly, because I am an American, so what other kind of dream would I have? No, this job at McDonald's is the start of the rest of my life. It is the first stop on my way to that country where rich people live and don't worry about money or being treated badly when they don't know all the English words or behave como una india. A white man shuffles up to my register at McDonald's one day. He's old and his voice is muddled, as if his mouth were full of marbles. When I ask him to repeat his order, he snaps, "What's the matter? You don't know English?" Without thinking, I twirl around and walk away, past the fry machine with its crackling oil, and into the kitchen, where the guys are peeling slices of cheese and tossing them on burger patties, then wiping their foreheads with the back of their hands. I stop at the freezer. I'm not breathing right. My hands are shaking, and a minute later, the manager wants to know why I left the register and he ended up having to take the gringo's order. But I don't ll9

know how to say that I didn't trust myself to be polite, and I can't lose this job. When my first paycheck from McD's lands in my hand, it is for a total of about $71 and change. I cash the check and take it to the beauty store on Anderson Avenue. There I spend close to an hour, inspecting rows of matte lipsticks and lip glosses and lip liners with names the colors of precious stones and wild flowers and sand dunes. The price tags are glued to the front of the display case, the numbers in thick block print: $3.99, $4.99. The women in my family buy 99-cent lipstick. The women in my family are their lipsticks. My mother is a pale strawberry. Tia Dora, a warm peach. Tia Chuchi, a pomegranate. Tia Rosa, a plum. And I am a black raspberry. The fruit never lasts. It smudges. It hardly sticks. It vanishes when you take a sip of soda. Tia Chuchi, who knows everything, schools me in how to eat a meal without losing your pintalabios. "You put your tongue out like this," she says, and then she sticks her lengua out at me and maneuvers the spoon's contents onto it (some melon, a pedazo of yuca), careful to not touch the edge of her lips. "See?" she says, chewing. "I knew a woman who did that. She kept her lipstick on the whole day." Sometimes, Tia Dora splurges on a $3.99 tube. Sometimes, a friend gives her a makeup bag from the mall, the kind they include as a freebie after you've spent $75. The color from those lipsticks is thicker, like hand cream. Now at the beauty store, I choose the items I could never ask my mother to buy, because a $4.99lipstick would make her shake her head and ask, "What's wrong with the 99-cent one?" It is a question I never know how to answer because I don't know that what I am trying to say is this: "I'm buying lipstick to make myself feel better about the class, racial, and sexual oppressions in our lives. The 99-cent lipstick ain't gonna cut it." Instead, I roll my eyes at the suggestion. "Mami,por.fo. It's ugly." With my own paycheck, I buy the lipstick I want, which with tax turns out to cost something like $5.07. I also pick up face powder and eyeliner and mascara. In a single hour, half of my pay-

check is gone. Back at McD's, I plead to work more hours, and when I get longer shifts and more pay, I am almost earning as much as my mother does in a week at the factory. Close to $200.

In her book Where We Stand, bell hooks writes about a time in American life, or at least in Kentucky where she grew up, when people did not spend their earnings on lipstick, face creams, or even television. People valued what they had. They enjoyed homemade fruit jams, scraps of fabric, and each other's stories. They didn't even blame the poor for being poor. If a black person was poor back then it was because the white man was keeping them down. The day would come when racism would be wiped out and every black man, woman, and child would eat with only fine linen napkins and not worry about their lipstick smudging. Class wasn't the problem; race was. Unfortunately, when the lunch counters and the schools were integrated, the wealthy black families got out of town, the white activists went back home, and the rest of the country turned around to look at poor and working-class black people and found them to blame for not having the good napkins, the kind Bill Cosby has. Bill Cosby was on television in the eighties, the father of a rich black family, a doctor married to a lawyer whose lipstick must have been named after rubies or topaz. He was making me laugh, charming me and the country with the story that skin color didn't matter anymore. Community didn't matter. A person could buy anything in this country now. All they needed to do was to work for it.

A manager at McD's approaches me one day. "I've got a proposition for you," she starts and explains how we can make money from the till, how easy it is, how you can pretend to ring up an order but not really do it, how, you see, it

I knew back then about money was that you could work for it or you could take it. In college, I found out people I had never met would also give it to you.

isn't a big deal. We'll split the money. It'll be cool. And I say, "Sure," not because I want to steal, not because I understand that she's asking me to do that, but because I'm afraid that if I say no, she'll be angry with me. I'm a teenager. She's in her twenties. I want her to like me. At the end of the shift, she finds me in the break room. She has light brown eyes and a wide forehead. She grins at me, places a small bundle in my hand, and walks away. I shove the money in my pocket, and, alone in the McDonald's bathroom,I count the bills. $20. $40. $60 ... $300. That's the number that stays with me decades later. It might have been less or more, but what I remember is $300 and that I had never held so much money in my hands, never seen so many twenties all at once, not even in the envelope my mother got at the bank when she cashed her paycheck. I know exactly what to do with the money, too. Or at least a part of it. I take it to the dentist on Bergenline Avenue. Fragoso is a crabby old Cuban who works out of a back room¡ in his apartment. We owe him hundreds of dollars for filling the holes in my mouth. Now, however, I enter his apartment the way Bill Cosby must feel all of the time~on top of things. Here I am, with hundreds of dollars to put toward the bill, hundreds of dollars my parents won't have to worry about. I am single-handedly taking care of business. Among the drills and jars of cotton balls, Fragoso counts the twenties. "That's it?" he asks, looking over at me. My face freezes. The room grows smaller, suffocating. I nod my head, bite my naked lip, the shame running through me like a live wire, and I promise to bring more next time.

He's wearing a business suit. A dark suit. The tie is some brilliant color, a red perhaps. He smiles at me the way Bill Cosby has done on television, warm and confident, but this man is younger. He can't be much older than me, twenty-five at most, and he is white or Italian or maybe Latino. He calls out from beside a folding table at my college campus. The sun is bright and the man is offering free mugs, free keychains, free T-shirts. All I have to do is apply for a credit card. I fill out the form the way you would enter your name into a raffle. It is all a matter of luck. I am eighteen and I don't know about credit scores. My parents pay in cash for everything. Credit cards are a phenomenon that happens to other people, rich people. When the credit card comes in the mail, however, I know exactly what to do. I march into a shoe store in Englewood and ask to see a pair of dark-brown Timberlands, size seven. It's the early nineties, and everyone is parading around school in that brand. You wear them with baggy Tommy Hilfiger jeans and dark lipstick, and when people dress that way, they look special, like the white plates with gray flowers my mother brings out for Thanksgiving. The shoes cost close to $100, a little more than half of my weekly pay from my two part-time jobs. But I don't have to give cash now. I hand the woman the plastic card the way I have seen other women do in stores, as if the price doesn't matter, and I'm grateful that my hand doesn't shake, even though I'm outrageously nervous. She hands me the receipt, a slip of paper that fits in my palm like a secret note a girl has passed to me in class. Just sign here. That's all. My signature. My promise to pay.

Although he was a part of our lives, I never saw how Bill Cosby got to be Bill Cosby, how his fictional character became a doctor and saved money and bought a house and paid the dentist. What

Back home, my mother stares at my feet. "$1 00?" The question hovers at her lips, as if she has come across a cubist painting and is trying to untangle the parts.

Language is a rubber band. It bends and stretches and tries to hold in place our mothers and the plaza in Bogota and the boy asking for milk. In English, they are street children. Abandoned children. Neglected children. Thrown-away children. The adjectives expand to make sense of little boys having to ask strangers for the first taste we are entitled to in this life: milk at the tit. In Spanish though, in Bogota, there is no need for extras or explanation. These boys are everywhere. They are gamines, a word borrowed from the French and meaning "to steal." A boy who steals. "You were so afraid of the street kids," Tia Chuchi remembers now, fondly, as if, as a girl, I had been frightened by spiders or ladybugs or wingless birds.

First pintalabios, now shoes. Tia Chuchi doesn't know how I turned out to be such a materialist. "No one in our family is like that," she insists, and I would like to believe her. It is a strange comfort to think that some aspect of being raised among strangers brought out the worst in me, that if I had been born and raised in my mother's native land, I would have known the Kentucky that bell hooks writes about. But this is an illusion. Colombia is where I sometimes think it began.

I am walking down the street in Bogota, holding my mother's hand. We are visiting for a few weeks, spending days with my grandmother and enough cousins to fill up two of my classrooms ¡ in New Jersey. The civil war reveals itself here and there, mostly in the rifles of the security guards at the airport. As we stroll down the street, a boy my age, about six or seven, his arm thin as a twig, his lips cracked, extends a hand toward me. Our eyes meet, the same eyes I have, the same small voice except his pleads, ''A few coins please, to buy a little milk." His hand is a tiny version of my father's. It is dirty and scarred in places. I cringe, afraid of something I cannot name. My mother snaps me close to her and quickens her pace, my head close to the fat on her hip. "Why is that boy asking for money?" I ask. "To buy leche." "But why?" "That's what children here have to do."

After my first credit card, an offer arrives in the mail for another one. I call the 800 number nervously, as if I were asking someone on a date who has shown a bit of interest. When the person says, "You've been approved," I feel it in my body, an elation like warm water. The offers continue to come in the mail, and I buy a large, red fake-leather wallet and fill each pocket with a credit card: Discover, Visa, MasterCard, Macy's,]. C. Penney, Victoria's Secret. I sit in my bedroom, admiring the little plastic rectangles and feeling genuinely accomplished, because in my home, in my community, people do not have credit cards. "Nada de deudas," my father declares, and my mother agrees-no debts. Down on Bergenline Avenue, storeowners are used to people buying even large purchases like refrigerators with cash. Only ricos have credit. My mother doesn't even believe in lay-away plans. At the Valley Fair department store, she explains, "It's better to wait until you have all the money." "The dress will be gone by then," I argue, to which she gives me her maddening standard answer: "There will be another one."

My mother is pleased that I traveled to England. She knows it's a good place. It's like here. Children have camitas and leche, and they don't wake up in the middle of the night with hurting bellies or having to steal. When I remind her that children are homeless in the United States, she sighs. "It's not the same." Over the years, her sisters board airplanes for Colombia, like migratory birds. Once a year, twice a year, every other year. They hear an echo of their homeland, and suddenly, they are spending weeks packing suitcases and shopping for jackets and medications and chanclas for their brothers and nieces and nephews. On the day of departure, they dress in matching skirts and blazers and tacones, like women who are traveling on business. They wear their 99-cent lipstick and take pictures at the airport. My mother does not hear the echo of Colombia. In fact, she has not been back in more than twenty years. "What would be the point?" she says. "To see all that pobreza?" My father agrees. He hasn't returned to Cuba in two decades, either. But it's not poverty that scares my mother. "It's so sad to see the children," she murmurs. The street children, the ones with hungry hands and lips that never quite close.

During my last semester of college, I study abroad in England with a group of white students from private schools. I am there on a scholarship with a $5,000 student loan and a wallet full of Visas and MasterCards. With every purchase, I tell myself why it's necessary.

When will! be in London again? Never! You can't find sweaters like these back home. What would people sqy if I returned without souvenirs? This is my only chance to see a real Oscar Wilde play. And the classic: All the other kids are going, None of this is to say that I don't keep track of my spending. I do. I review my new credit card charges, mentally checking off why each one was required. I monitor my bank account frequently, careful to slowly chip away at the student loan. One night, standing in line to use the phone in our student house, I overhear one of my classmates, a tall white girl from a state I've only seen on maps. She's going through her own list of justifications for charges on her father's credit card. "I had to buy the boots, Daddy." A pause. "I know they were expensive, but I needed them. It's so cold here." I shake my head, quite smug that I would never do anything like that to my own parents. My credit card bills, and I am very pleased to say this, are my responsibility. So caught up in this perverse pride, I fail to see that I am a college student with two parttime jobs back home and a student loan here, trying to pay off the kind of credit-card balances a grown white man in the Midwest is struggling to handle.

To pay for a subscription to the New York Times, the New Yorker, and New York magazine. To buy wine, even cheap wine, for yet another party, and clothes for it as well. The hard part is listening to middle-class, white coworkers talk about the poor and the working class, because it's the nineties and the headline is welfare reform.

I pull every single credit card from my wallet and throw them in the freezer. I look up the support group a friend recommended, and when I show up at the meeting, I take my place in a folding chair and vow to myself that I will sit in this exact chair every week even if doing so will kill me. And I do believe it will kill me to spend an hour listening to people talk about not having the money to pay the dentist, the paycheck being short this week, losing their jobs, and the humiliation of not being able to buy a friend a gift as expensive as the one she gave you. There are other stories in the group, of course-positive tales about people negotiating job salaries, setting up debt-repayment plans, planning weddings without credit cards-but all I hear are the stories that scare me. I sit there, and sometimes I daydream and don't listen, and other times, I tell myself that I am not like these people. I am still going to turn out like Bill Cosby: rich and confident and not worried about money. But I do what the people at the meeting tell me to do. I buy a notebook and start writing down how much I spend and on what. A woman from the group helps me identifY my slippery places, the bookstores and clothing stores where I am most likely to use a credit card. I employ the forty-eight hour rule, waiting two days before making a purchase I haven't planned. I even start depositing a few dollars into a savings account. Someone from the group says it doesn't matter if all I put in there is $1. Mter a year, my savings total a little more than $1,000. I sit at my computer, dazed. For so many years, my mother urged me to save, and my father would ask me how much I had saved, and I always insisted, at least to myself: I don't earn enough to save it. But now, here is proof that I can do it. I have done it. I shut my laptop and declare myself cured.

The bills arrive each month. Discover, Visa, MasterCard, American Express. Numbers have stopped being numbers. They are hieroglyphs. The due date, the interest rates, the account numbers-all these curves and slants on the page belong to a language I am failing to learn. My mother doesn't understand how my wallet is so full of plastic instead of dollars, but the white girls I work with are sympathetic. "I try not to think about it," a coworker says about her debt. "It's depressing," agrees another. "I owe $30,000 just in school loans," one confides.

It's the day before Halloween. The supermarket is selling minichocolates in bulk. The party stores are peddling temporary selves: angels, devils, pirates, and princesses. Pumpkins are perched on window sills, candles balancing on their tongues. And I am at the kitchen sink, wishing I could fit myself into a new life. I have consolidated the debt, so that now instead of having a lot of bad little dreams, I have one giant nightmare, and it's in my hands: the new credit card bill. It doesn't matter that I have been sending more than $300 a month in payments. The total due does not budge. A thread in me, a piece of hila that has thinned over the years, snaps.

What I loved as a child about Bill Cosby was that he didn't need help. He never had to stick his hand out for charity or even to ask a question about what someone said in English. We were always needing help, always needing a health clinic or a dental clinic or a women's clinic. We were always needing someone to translate for us or give us a ride somewhere because we didn't own a car. We were, I thought naively as a child, always waiting. I was too young then to understand that health care was privatized, that factories needed people like my mother and my father and my tia, that even Bill Cosby needed us. It was our work that made his day possible.

An earlier train? I look at him and find myself staring into Bill Cosby's fatherly face. Why don't you take the earlier train? You're tired. You deserve it. "How much is it?" I ask, dubious. "It's just another $21 ," he says, adding, "It's not that much. You'll be home in no time." I look at the monitor and the Amtrak worker with those father-knows-best eyes and think about the guava pastry waiting for me at my auntie's apartment in Jersey. I hand the man my credit card. He swipes it for me, and in less than a second, my reality has changed. I will not have to eat a cold sandwich at the train station and arrive in the city at midnight. I can now board the train, nap, and when I wake up, I will be home. A month later, when I open the bill and see the amount due, I review every charge. New tires ($232. 76), contact lenses ($209.51 ), a purchase at the Hello Kitty store ($25.05). Important stuff, I tell myselÂŁ But still. I add up the charges, confident that the company has made a mistake. It cannot be $1,003.28. It just can't. But it is. And the $21 for the Amtrak ticket sits there on the page, as if it were blameless.

It takes thirty-seven days, about five weeks, for me to charge $1,003.28 on my credit cards, and for this, I blame the man at Amtrak. Sure, I had signed up for a new credit card, telling myself that this one would be different. It wasn't like the other cards. This was an airline credit card. I would be charging, yes, but paying it off at the end of the month, while accumulating points for a free flight. I told myself, I'll be getting one over on the airline companies. Instead, I find myself at Union Station in Washington, DC. I am in line behind business suits, waiting to get my electronic Amtrak ticket and feeling annoyed that I will have to wait a few hours at the station. When I reach the self-service computer monitor, an Amtrak customer representative is there (in theory) to field any questions I may have. A tall man, he is a bit older, smiling and friendly, and offers to help me locate my ticket. He blinks at the monitor. "Your train isn't leaving until eight o'clock." "I know." I pout. He taps the computer screen. "There's a five o'clock train. Why don't you take that?"

Back to my little support group I fly, this time in tears. "This is just money," I keep repeating. "How can it affect me like this? It's ridiculous." The group meets in a church room that has fraying carpet and thin, plastic chairs. Through the windows, the morning sky is gray and dull. About twenty people have gathered to talk about the same things: money, credit cards, unsecured loans. When the meeting pauses for a break, four or five people rush to my side. They want to help.

The hard part is telling my mother. I have decided to be honest, which benefits my spiritual practice but bruises my ego and worries Mami. "What do you mean you can't pay the phone bill?" she asks. Not being able to pay a bill in my family means a person is close to financial ruin, about to apply for welfare, or, worse, about to be thrown out of their home and forced to live on the street like gamines. "I mishandled things," I tell her. "But I'll pay it on Friday." She grows silent, furrows her eyebrows. She's worried and confused, because my mother is familiar with the likes of bell hooks. She can walk through the shopping mall in Paramus and feel rich from the looking.

I wish I could be like bell hooks. She has written that because she was never accepted in white or black middle-class circles as a young woman, she didn't try to belong. She didn't try to dress like she had money she didn't have; she didn't enjoy the illusion that material goods would make her feel better. She found that she liked to live simply, and she hated the hedonistic consumer culture that is American life. I wish I could be like that, but I'm not. I love the iPhones and iPads, the hybrid cars and hybrid bikes, the leather shoes made in Israel, the $22.50 lipstick, the Coach handbags, the hotel rooms with flat-screen televisions in the bathrooms, the $10 herbal teas, the $3.99 a bag organic lettuce, the Kindles, the hardcover books with their deckled edges, even the $3,000, bred-to-size lapdogs. When I create a spending plan that includes only the organic lettuce, and no fantasy that I will ever use a credit card to buy that or anything else, I am heartbroken. And embarrassed. I'm a feminist. I write about social justice issues. How can I want any of these things? I berate myself, and before that gets out of hand, I call a friend because by now I know that blaming myself for what ¡ I feel only makes me think that buying a mocha-scented soy candle for $21 will make me feel better. It doesn't.

The street children. It's their hands that haunt me. Little, brown hands. The fingers stretched out like the basket for limosna in church on Sundays. The baskets were made of wicker, and we dropped our alms (four quarters) into them when I was a child, and the baskets ate the coins and I worried that we wouldn't have enough to feed them. They looked like open hands to me, those baskets. Open hands and terror.

I wake up one morning and reach for my cell phone. I turn it on and hit a speed-dial button, but an automated voice answers me instead. It has happened exactly as the customer-service representative said it would: A Sprint computer has shut off my phone. I can't place another call until I have paid the bill, a little more than $200, which I will in about two days when my paycheck appears in my Washington Mutual checking account. In the meantime, I have consulted with my support team, reviewed my options, and concluded that I can live without a cell phone for three days.
