Gov. Susana Martinez proposed a $4.9 million cut in remedial edu-cation funds from the state’s col-leges in order to focus on prob-lems in the K-12 system that make remedial courses necessary.

Remedial education cours-es are 100-level courses in math, reading and writing and do not count for college credit. Students whose SAT/ACT scores fall be-low a certain point are required to pass the classes before moving on.

Scott Darnell, Martinez’s spokesperson, said the proposal does not call for eliminating re-medial classes, just providing less funding for them. He said Marti-nez doesn’t want the state to allo-cate so much money to teach col-lege students material they should have learned in high school.

“The state currently faces a budget deficit of up to $450 mil-lion,” he said. “We must balance the budget, and that involves making difficult decisions. Unless we make cuts like these, deep cuts would have to be made to K-12 classrooms and to health care for those most in need, which the governor does not support.”

Wynn Goering, vice provost for academic affairs, said on average, 30-35 percent of incoming fresh-men require remedial education. He said the proposal doesn’t ad-dress the root problem in the pub-lic school system.

“It’s a budget cut that simply makes a serious problem worse,” he said. “If (Martinez’s) goal is to make New Mexico’s educational institutions more ‘accountable’ for this issue, then, in this case, the real need is to find ways to en-able New Mexico high schools to

do a better job of preparing their graduates for college.”

Darnell said Martinez laid out an education reform agenda de-signed to correct the problems in the K-12 school system that produce college students who need remedial education. He said schools that measure students’ performance on a grading sys-tem are more effective at tracking students’ progress.

UNM is at the top of its game in cyberspace.

UNM’s web access and presence was ranked 76th out of 12,000 univer-sities worldwide and 62nd out of North America colleges.

UNM Website Administrator Mat-thew Carter said the quality of a univer-sity’s electronic content can factor into a student’s decision to attend UNM.

“� e ranking represents UNM has a fair amount of scholarly content and

makes it readily available,” he said. Webometrics Rankings of World

K. A. McCord, Art Studio, Senior

Daily Lobo: Could you explain what’s going on here with your sculpture?

K. A. McCord: I started this on Sept. 28. This piece is called “Flo-rabundunt Two.” Florabundant means an abundance of floral light. So what she’s really about is the fe-male experience in life — female people, female animals, female plants. It’s about the generation of life. As you can see, she is very con-templative. I plan to have some form

of plant life growing out of her hands because she is contemplating the spirit of life.

DL: Could you elaborate on what the spirit of life might be?

KM: That’s an interesting ques-tion. It’s an exuberance, a wanting to be, a wanting to live. If you see little plants or leaves growing out of little cracks of asphalt, it’s just amazing that there is life everywhere on this planet. Life is everywhere. Life wants to be. Life is exuberant. She is an ex-pression of part of that.

DL: What are your thoughts on the

idea that life will continue to grow?KM: It’s just this amazing miracle.

So it’s a very spiritual thing. Now I am not tied to any particular religion or creed, but it brings forth in me this appreciation for life and this power that wants to be.

DL: Was there any person-al experiences that led you to this realization?

KM: I am a mother. I have two children who are young adults now, and that experience of being preg-nant, having a human being inhabit-ing your body, is just amazing. I had

this realization that this is where all humans come from. Then I also was very fortunate to be present at the birth of two other children. When my niece was born, I was the first person on Earth who got to see her face, and I actually have another piece I am doing about that experience — being present when a child was born — be-cause to me the birth of a child, it was like the child was coming from a por-tal to another universe.

DL: Where do you draw inspiration?

KM: One artist who has always

been an influence on me is Georgia O’Keeffe. It’s that expression of col-or that influences me. I also realized Henri Rousseau has really influenced me, so I began to do things more free and wild than I was doing earlier.

DL: Anything else you want to say about the piece or your work in general?

KM: I want to invite everyone to my honor’s thesis show April 8 in the Cochiti Gallery on the third floor of the SUB. I will have about eight pieces there, and this is one of them.

UNM will soon have a new member on the Board of Regents.

Gov. Susana Martinez appoint-ed Jacob Wellman to the student regent post Monday.

Wellman said the appointment is an honor.

“I was shocked and really ex-cited,” Wellman said. “My parents are probably overwhelmed and shocked as well.”

For Wellman, the process to be-come the next student regent be-gan last fall. He said he applied to ASUNM, and the organization rec-ommended him to the Office of the President. Dr. Paul Roth, who served as interim president, inter-viewed him before recommending Wellman to the governor’s office.

To complete his confirmation process, Wellman must find a sen-ator to sponsor him before the Sen-

ate Rules Committee. If approved by the committee, he will be vot-ed on the full Senate for confirma-tion before he can take the seat as UNM’s student regent.

“I look forward to working as a liaison between students, the re-gents and the governor,” Wellman said.

Wellman is an undergradu-ate pursuing a B.A. in political science. He is involved in UNM’s budget and cost-containment measures as a member of the Pres-ident’s Strategic Advisory Team. He also serves as an undergradu-ate representative to the Student Fee Review Board and has served as ASUNM attorney general and chief of Staff.

Wellman interned with policy group Think New Mexico, where he was involved in policy research to end public corruption and in-stitute smaller middle and high schools across the state.

Think New Mexico Representa-tive Fred Nathan said Wellman is committed to the University.

“Jake is pretty modest and goes about his business,” he said. “He is extremely talented.”

Kristina Fisher, another Think New Mexico representative, said she was impressed with Wellman’s performance.

“He is committed to public ser-vice,” she said. “He helped with our grassroots organization.”

University President David Schmidly said in a statement he is confident Wellman will help the University as the student regent.

“His dedication to represent-ing and advancing the interests of the UNM community has provided him with a strong working knowl-edge of our University, and his demonstrated leadership and ex-periences will enable him to serve our community well,” Schmidly said.

MADISON, Wis.— No resolution appeared imminent Monday to the stalemate over union rights in Wis-consin, leaving Senate Republicans resigned to forge ahead with less-controversial business such as tax breaks for dairy farmers and com-mending the Green Bay Packers on winning the Super Bowl.

As the standoff entered its second week, none of the major players of-fered any signs of backing down in a high-stakes game of political chicken that has riveted the nation and led to ongoing public protests that drew a high of 68,000 people on Saturday. Thousands more braved cold winds and temperatures in the 20s to march again on Monday, waving signs that said “Stop the attack on Wisconsin families” and “solidarity.”

The 14 Senate Democrats who skipped town Thursday to indefinite-ly delay a vote on Republican Gov. Scott Walker’s bill stripping most col-lective bargaining rights from nearly all public employees remained miss-ing in action for a fifth day.

Walker refused to back down and again called on the Democrats to re-turn and vote on the bill

“For those 14 Senate Democrats, you’ve had your time,” he said. “It’s time for them to come back and par-ticipate in democracy.”

The Democrats have been far from in hiding. They’ve done numer-ous television interviews and two of them even participated, via tele-phone from an undisclosed location, in a brief meeting to schedule the Senate’s session on Tuesday.

“You have shut down the people’s government, and that is not accept-able,” Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald said to them during the meeting.

Both the Senate and Assembly planned to be in session on Tues-day to take up the bill, but at least one of the missing Democrats need-ed to show up for a vote to be taken in the Senate. Assembly Democrats

planned to offer dozens of amend-ments that could push a vote into Wednesday or later.

Although Tuesday’s list of items, including the resolution honoring the Packers, is largely bipartisan, Fitzgerald hinted that he might try to push some more controversial ones later, even if the Democrats aren’t back. Among the possibilities is a vote on the question of whether vot-ers should be required to show iden-tification at the polls.

Democratic Senate Minority Lead-er Mark Miller said Democrats were waiting for Walker to compromise.

“It’s right in front of the governor,” Miller said. “He just needs to pick it up and allow us to move on. ... This is a no-brainer.”

Under one deal, the unions said they would accept paying more for benefits as Walker wants but still re-tain their collective bargaining rights. Another compromise offered by Re-publican Sen. Dale Schultz would re-move collective bargaining rights just for two years.

Walker has repeatedly rejected both offers, saying local governments and school districts can’t be ham-strung by the often lengthy collec-tive bargaining process and need to have more flexibility to deal with up to $1 billion in cuts he will propose in his budget next week and into the future.

As he spoke under heavy guard at a late afternoon news conference in-side his conference room, thousands of protesters could be heard through the doors blowing whistles, banging on drums and chanting “Scott Walk-er has got to go!”

“This guy is power drunk and we’re here to sober him up,” said Bert Zipperer, 54, a counselor at a Madi-son middle school who was among the protesters. “He wants to do it uni-laterally without any compromise. He wants to be a national conserva-tive hero and he thinks he can get away with this.”

The flu is here. It’s late this year, but it’s here now. We are

seeing lots of wretched masses in the clinic. The guy in exam room two was a typical influenza patient. High fever, chills, major body aches and wracking cough. Poor guy. He was really wishing he had gotten the flu shot. I was too, because now that he was sick, there wasn’t a lot I could do for him except recommend he stay in bed and take some stuff for his symptoms.

It is too late now for a flu shot to help you this year, but you still might be able to avoid this miserable disease.

Flu is short for influenza. It is a severe respi-ratory illness, far worse than a cold. There are other respiratory viruses that fall somewhere

between these two extremes, but the flu is pret-ty classic with the symptoms mentioned above. It usually comes on rapidly and lays people flat for about a week, which is a drag when you have classes to attend and papers to write.

I’ll remind you in the fall about the bene-

fits of getting a flu shot, but for now here’s my advice: If you get the flu, first of all, please stay home.

This is for your benefit and for the protec-tion of others. You need the rest. We don’t have any medicines that kill the flu virus once you have it, so really the best you can do is basic body care so your immune system can clear the virus.

Sleep, drink lots of liquids, sleep some more. You can also take medicines for your symptoms, like cough syrups, fever-lowering drugs and decongestants.

But please use your basic good manners and don’t bring your germs to class or to the workplace. You can contact your professors or boss and let them know you are ill. Chances are, they will understand.

If you don’t have the flu, first of all, stay

away from those who do. Next, wash your hands a lot and keep them

away from your face. The flu is passed in drop-lets. If someone coughs on their hand and touches a door knob just before you do, you can pick up the germ, which you can then pass to yourself when you rub your nose. Try not to touch your face without washing your hands first.

There is some evidence that zinc can help ward off the flu and other cold viruses. It comes in lozenges that dissolve slowly in your mouth. Also, certain herbs might be able to shorten and lighten the course of a cold or flu, like echi-nacea and astragalus.

Finally, of course, keeping your immune system strong by getting enough sleep, exercis-ing regularly and eating healthfully is always a good idea and can make the difference be-tween wellness and illness.

Fingers crossed that you don’t end up like the guy in room two. But if you do, come see us!

Editor,

I write in support of Gov. Susana Martinez’ appointment of undergraduate political sci-ence major Jake Wellman.

I have had the opportunity to work with Wellman on the Student Fee Review Board (SFRB) in 2010-11.

Wellman always thoroughly reviewed the applications, met with constituency groups, asked insightful and tough questions dur-ing hearings and worked to reach consensus among board members. Wellman listened to all sides, deliberated over his decisions and did not come in to meetings with precon-ceived notions.

The Student Fee Review Board is, without question, one of the most important boards at UNM that a student can be a member of. Each year the board makes decisions about nearly $11 million in student fees to fund recurring programs such as the Student Health Center, Athletics, the Student Union Building, Pope-joy Hall, Recreation Services and CAPS (the Center for Academic Programs and Support).

Last year’s board recommended fund-ing for the new LGTBQ Resource Center, the Community Learning and Public Service pro-gram, the Research and Service Learning Pro-gram and the N.M. Public Interest Research Group. The board also recommended small cuts to Athletics, Recreation Services and Popejoy Hall.

Finally, the board recommended amend-ments to UNM Policy 1310, the policy that provides the rules for the SFRB, to allow for more flexibility in decision-making so as to al-low priorities to be funded without increasing student fees.

Wellman was a leader in these debates, and it was not uncommon for him to present fully drafted amendments and to vote in favor of compromises that were hashed out after hours of deliberation.

Wellman also demonstrated initiative and determination when he turned ideas discussed at the SFRB into reality by spearheading the La Montañita Co-op on-campus effort.

I am confident Wellman will be a valu-able addition to the UNM Board of Regents, and I look forward to having him represent students’ perspective in the decision-making process.

Editor,

The recent political upheaval taking place has caught Americans unaware, and they are shocked at the level of violence used against peaceful protesters.

Common sense would lead the casual, outside observer to the conclusion that all the violence is not necessary. If people do not want their tyrannical leader anymore, then why shouldn’t they peacefully relin-

quish power?This question can only be answered if

we travel back in time. The date was Sept. 11, 1990, and the occasion was George

H. W. Bush’s speech to Congress. Af-ter the successful conclusion of the first Gulf War, President Bush stated that the conflict’s actual goal was to establish a

“New World Order.” And what exactly would this “New World Order” look like? The U.S. would establish its global domina-tion over the world, even if this meant sup-porting the world’s dictators. And the end goal is the establishment of a one-world government with a one-world leader.

In Christianity, this one-world leader is called the Antichrist, and in Islam, he is called the Dajjal.

For better or worse, it looks like we are living in interesting times.

Aux Dog Theatre is back for round two in its 2011 season, tack-ling one of Shakespeare’s most fa-mous tragedies, “Othello,” with the thunder and human horror it deserves.

For those who didn’t read “Hamlet” in school, the title char-acter is a Moorish general in the service of the armies of Venice (making him an Arab or North African — and certainly an out-sider). He is happily married and trusted by all, except for his right-hand man, Iago, who seeks to de-stroy Othello’s marriage, trust and mind.

Othello is the most “tragic” of Shakespeare’s tragedies. There are no illusions about the calamitous final outcome. The suspense and horror is a result of not “what” will happen, but how and when.

Peter Shea Kierst’s Iago is the towering center of the show. This is good news, since Iago, by far, has most of the lines.

It is when Iago is alone on stage addressing the audience that Ki-erst truly shines. Iago’s pace and person are finely crafted by Kierst, with the audience caught as any other character helplessly falling into tragedy.

To this end, Iago lies to the au-dience in these monologues about his motivations and reasons for hating Othello. The public image Iago constructs is the most caustic part of the relationship between Othello and Iago. He is called “Honest Iago” by other characters more times you can count. He is beloved and trusted by all.

Like the Joker in “The Dark Knight,” he’ll claim it’s because he was passed over for promotion, then change to how he suspects Othello slept with his wife, rein-venting and removing the reasons behind the ultimate destruction of the lives he indirectly controls.

Often more than even Othello, his wife, Desdemona (played by Arlette Morgan), gains sympathy. Her suffering comes from a place of ignorance — just as it is said that the pain of an animal is worse than the pain of a human, she never un-derstands the reason for her suf-fering or the cause of her tragedy.

Christy Lopez’s Emilia is the only one with the position or knowledge to understand Iago’s myriad machinations. She is the only character that Iago is openly cruel toward. The rest of the char-acters are treated with his glib, fic-titious persona.

Lopez gives Emilia a painful, human vulnerability, which makes her undignified fate all the more heartbreaking.

One thing that is guaranteed to take you out of the moment and absorption of any play is poorly staged violence. Luckily, this is no-where in sight.

Darryl DeLoach plays Othel-lo with stellar stage presence and perfect violence. Every step and strike isn’t simply believable — it’s real.

Director Lori Stewart possesses a sharp and excellent eye for stag-ing Shakespeare. Character move-ment and placement give depth and dimension to the Aux Dog set. The play is as visually pleasing as it is verbally.

While the costumes are under-whelming, much is done with the minimal palette.

The high point of this effect was gray-clothed Iago centered at the grunt soldiers in black-— his so-ber, stoic hatred seething quietly and surrounded by his “mates’” boisterous drunken carousing.

Iago is the ultimate Shake-

speare villain. His manipulations come from an understanding of emotion and the human condition. He plays on the people’s wants, the other characters always coming to him. He tells them what they want to hear only after he adjusted what it is they want. It’s hardly a wonder why good villains are so seductive to captive audiences.

Stewart and Aux Dog have as-sembled a crack cast and deliv-ered a superb performance of one of Shakespeare’s more weighty creations.

With the recent success of their season opener, theatergoers and newcomers should be excited at the coming prospects from a rela-tively new voice in Albuquerque, making its own in a way that com-mands respect and attention.

The UNM Anime Club attracts those of a “nerdy bend.”

It provides an avenue for nerdy stu-dents to come together in a relaxed so-cial situation, and discuss and watch anime. Michael Dunnigan founded the club in fall 2005, after a falling out with his roommate that took his friend’s support with him. He said he wanted to create a destination for others who shared his growing interest in anime.

“I envisioned it being a place for like-minded individuals to get togeth-er and get to know one another so we could experience different shows and have something in common to talk about,” he said. “I think a lot of them got what I envisioned out of it.”

Dunnigan said advertising a view-ing of “Final Fantasy VII: Advent Chil-dren,” in 2005 bred interest in the club, and people continued to go because, at the time, anime was hard to come by.

“I had a lot of people that were gung-ho to see the club succeed,” he said.

The club meets most Saturdays at the SUB from 4-8 p.m. and is open to everyone, not just students. Every week the club shows an anime in one room and plays games, primarily Japa-nese games, in an adjacent room.

Former President Justin Brough said anime is more available now, but the club retained its 63 members who

come for the social atmosphere.“Now, anime clubs are much more

about the social experience, and I think the reason this one does so well is be-cause we really get people involved with experiencing the anime together,” he said.

Current President Devon Stevens said the anime community includes individuals who are socially awkward, but the club eases their social tensions with a common interest.

“What we’d like to do is foster an en-vironment that’s nonjudgmental, that accepts pretty much anyone that’s of a nerdy bend,” he said. “We like to think that by being more of a community we can sort of help people become more social over time. I think anime club is very good at doing that.”

In addition to viewing anime, the club has activities like anime Jeopardy and themed meetings, like last week’s nostalgia day where the organization showed old-school anime. The club shows anime from all genres including drama, fantasy, high school romance or action.

Brough said anime is appealing be-cause the subject matter is not usually found in Western animation, because it’s geared toward younger audiences.

“The Japanese have strange stories to tell, and they’re quite innovative in making up story lines for their anime,” he said. “They can do whatever they want with the story. Some of them are a little too strange.”

At the end of every semester, the club tries to attend an anime conven-tion, usually AnimeCon or Anime Los Angeles.

Brough said the trips exposed club members to thousands of individuals in the larger anime community.

“We really got to know each other better,” he said. “When we go to the conventions, a lot of people dress up as the characters, and that’s the calling card to get to know other people in the community.”

Stevens said the Albuquerque an-ime community is on the verge of soar-ing in popularity, and he would like the anime club to shed more positive light on the budding community.

“There’s an old perception — and it’s not as common now — but the idea that people who are into anime are shut-ins or absolute geeks, people you don’t want to associate,” he said. “It’s not very accurate overall, and every time you can bust a stereotype, I think that’s a good project to pursue.”

Whether it’s the hum of an acous-tic guitar in UNM’s Atrium, or the bass of a band performing by the copper statues, UNM’s Noontime Concert Se-ries provides a variety of performances Wednesdays at noon.

This week acoustic musician Bryce Hample, of local band Reighnbeau, will perform a solo set at the Atrium.

“It’s not very often that I have the op-portunity to play for an hour,” Hample said. “I’ll be playing material that I don’t normally play, because I don’t have the time”

Run by UNM’s Student Special Events office, Noontime has showcased local talent for a decade. Promotions Director Alex Borowski, a music enthu-siast and performer, approves musi-cal groups that perform for Noontime. Looking for variety and talent, Borows-ki said the musicians he selects benefit from playing at a special venue.

“It gives local bands another place

to play besides the standard coffee shop,” he said. “ ... They get to play to like-minded people of similar age.”

Student Cullen Roth said Noontime exposes students to music genres.

“I think it’s dope,” Roth said. Susan Brake, UNM Bands admin-

istrative assistant, said it cements local artists’ importance.

“The more chances people get to hear live music and see original art, the more it helps other organizations that do the same thing in the city and on campus,” Brake said.

But not everyone necessarily enjoys the free entertainment.

Student Loren Brooks said he doesn’t mind the shows so long as they aren’t intrusive.

“Some of them have been pretty cool. Some of them have been pretty boring, and some of them have been really annoying, like this guy who was blasting music the other day,” Brooks said. “If it’s a good thing, it’s free enter-tainment. You can sit down and listen to it. If it’s annoying, you get a headache.”

Student Brandon Pettit said he would enjoy Noontime more if the noise level was reduced.

“It is normally fine because it’s acoustic. Not people who have amps and say, ‘Look, we have really loud amps, and you can hear us all the way across campus.’” Pettit said. “No one ap-preciates that.”

Hample said he can only hope stu-dents enjoy Wednesday’s performance.

“I think it’s a great thing for the stu-dents to have some live music during the day to relax, having an escape from the everyday school thing,” he said. “It’s a treat in the middle of the day.”
