Despite stores such as Borders and Newsland closing up shop, UNM’s Zimmerman Library still has plenty of chapters left in an increasingly digital world.

UNM Libraries associate dean Nancy Dennis said that 1.8 million people visited UNM’s four libraries last year, and Zimmerman topped the list.

“We’re already seeing gate counts here in Zimmerman of over 6,000 peo-ple a day,” Dennis said. “It’s a little bit more than last year, but it’s a very busy place.”

She said the library attracts stu-dents for several reasons, including the � rst � oor Starbucks, a high number of computer terminals and communal study areas.

But students mainly come to the library to seek information, she said.

� e materials lent out by the library as well as the catalogue are evolving to keep up with the changes, she said.

According to Dennis, the library began renting iPads and Kindles to students over the summer. � e library also rents out laptops, but those are only available for 3-hour blocks and cannot leave the library.

“If they’re home and they’re study-ing, then they should have as much access as possible to content they can study remotely,” Dennis said. “If they’re in the classroom, the dorms — wherever they are — if they’re not physically in the library, we want to try to serve them there as well.”

Some UNM students say websites like ratemyprofessor.com (RMP) are useful for helping them choose which instructors to take classes with, but fac-ulty argue that the system isn’t as use-ful as it seems.

Students on RMP rate professors on several dimensions: clarity, helpful-ness, easiness and rater interest (inter-est level prior to attending the class) as well as physical attractiveness. Overall professor quality is determined by an equal weighting of only two criteria: clarity and helpfulness. � e highest score is a � ve, while the lowest is a 0.

UNM’s average professor rating is 3.34.

Student Jeremiah Wynton said he visits the site before selecting classes every semester.

“It’s honest, and that is what I like about it,” he said. “UNM doesn’t give students any idea which professors are good, and it seems to be that is what is most important to students. I can � nd out in advance what a class is go-ing to be like and make some sort of informed decision rather than getting stuck with the professor that is impos-sibly hard, or has no idea what he is talking about.”

Harjit Ahluwalia, a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is rated second lowest for

teachers at UNM (1.6 overall), but said his poor ratings are a re� ection upon the di� culty of the class.

“I agree most of them are not favorable to my teaching style,” he said. “Insisting on hard work does not make me popular. Students (need) to spend about 10 hours outside the class to acquire problem solving skills at an acceptable level and do well in class tests and exams.”

Student Ian Martinez said Ahluwalia demands too much from his students without o� ering help, on top of a thick accent that made it di� cult to learn.

“It wasn’t that he was a bad teacher, he just expected you to know everything and it was just too hard to understand what he was saying,“ he said.

Ahluwalia said maintaining a

rigorous curriculum is in the best interest of the future success of students, many of whom go on to medical school or pursue doctoral degrees. He said TAs o� er help to students, but many refuse to study enough to do well.

“Almost universally, physics is con-sidered a di� cult subject and some courses are called ‘killer courses,’ but

everyone expects to get an A.”In contrast, Keith Hunley, associate

professor of anthropology, said he was pleased to learn that students had rat-ed him highly.

“I am � attered and grati� ed to know that students rate me highly on RMP,” he said. “I am especially happy to read comments about how my classes make

Staff report

A Sept. 4 Albuquerque Journal article entitled Interim Provost Chaouki Abdallah’s efforts to reorganize the Provost’s Office a “cost saving plan” that had “backfired,” but Abdallah said his plans have worked as he expected.

Abdallah sent out a University-wide e-mail Wednesday in hopes of telling his side of the story. “Bottom line, rather than calling my restructuring ‘a cost-saving plan that backfired,’ this is an on-going restructuring plan and so-far working as diagrammed,” he wrote.

The Journal said Abdallah planned to save the University thousands of dollars when he replaced Vice Provost Wynn Goering with three smaller-sal-aried administrators. His plan “back-fired” when he found out Goering had already signed a contract to keep

his position for another year. Abdallah hired the three administrators anyway, adding $120,000 to UNM’s administra-tive expenses, the Journal reported.

Abdallah said in his e-mail his goal had never been to save money.

“When hired, my overriding man-date was not to save costs but to re-structure and better organize to serve the academic mission,” he said.

Abdallah said the University no longer had a need for Goering’s position and the position was eliminated. Goering’s duties were re-assigned to new hires and existing staff in the Provost’s Office.

“However, by the time I assumed responsibilities as Provost, Dr. Goering had already signed his annual employ-ment contract,” Abdallah said. “At the same time, a need emerged in my dis-cussions with the President for a per-son to oversee and manage the branch

campuses and UNM West. Given Dr. Goering’s extensive administrative ex-perience, including a branch campus leadership role, he met the position criteria very well and was reassigned.”

Abdallah said Goering’s new posi-tion is being funded by the Provost’s Office for a period of one year, and if the position is deemed necessary for future years, future funding will be identified by the incoming president. The three new administrators will be funded through savings from the Dean of Graduate Studies who is stepping down, he said.

“Year two and beyond will be de-termined based on an analysis of the effectiveness of my restructuring plan,” Abdallah said. “Assuming that I am still the Provost next year, I may, in fact, bring on one or two more faculty members to help lead the academic mission.”

Abdallah didn’t intend to save

evaluations is other students, and the comments are public,” he said. “Professors are the target audience for in-class reviews, and they are largely private.” Hunley said both styles of teaching evaluation fall short of giving a complete picture.

“I don’t care for the IDEA (end of year evaluation) forms at UNM — I think they are too generic to be of much value,” he said. “I always ask my students to fly through the multiple choice questions and spend the bulk of their time writing comments on the back of the form. I read every one of these comments, save the most valu-able ones, both good and bad, and modify my courses accordingly.”

Gregory Heileman, associate provost for curriculum and director of the Office of Support for Effective Teaching said ratemyprofessor.com is a useful tool, but lacks the legitimacy and statistical significance of University evaluations.

“I think they have the potential to be useful, but if you look at the site, you get people who are very excited, or very angry. It isn’t representative of the total student population. It could be anyone getting on there, including the teacher giving themselves good recommendations.”

He said UNM does not currently have a system in place to help students learn about their instructors.

“We don’t have anything like that at this point. Our evaluations are for fac-ulty improvement, and we have a lot of other programs to improve teaching.”

Robert Delcampo, assistant profes-sor of organizational studies, scored a 4.9 overall. He said opinions on the le-gitimacy of RMP were likely biased.

“I think it’s a good tool for students and I’ve heard them say it’s really good, but my guess is the highest-rated peo-ple probably think it’s a great tool, and the worst-rated people think it’s terrible.”

Ratings from page 1Dennis said that the push toward

digital material required new skill sets for students, library staff and faculty alike, but she said there will still be a place for the old-fashioned book.

Student Kelly Dunn said she isn’t familiar with the online resources.

“I don’t really use anything online,” she said. “I mostly use the printed ma-terials (because) I haven’t been taught the online materials.”

Student Amanda Best said that she thinks students use their textbooks more than anything.

“I don’t use any books at the library. I use the computer and the tutoring service, CAPS. If you need a book for school, you can get it at the bookstore,” she said.

In addition to the materials, the in-frastructure of the libraries has been updated in the face of changing tech-nology and study habits Dennis said.

“We’ve certainly embraced technology,” she said.

Recreational drug use is, rightly or wrong-ly, a part of college life.

Experimentation with illicit substances can be very enlightening or incredibly de-structive, depending on the circumstances and the individual.

Like most things, moderation is a key com-ponent to leading a healthy, normal life. We’re all adults at UNM, and we should be able to make our own decisions regarding what sub-stances we choose to ingest — as well as ac-cept the consequences which follow from those decisions.

While some drugs are clearly detrimental to both body and soul — heroin, metham-phetamine, crack, cocaine, nicotine and alco-hol, for instance — recent studies have shown that not all recreational drugs are necessarily bad for you.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) re-cently published a study by the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Vir-ginia, which flatly concludes that THC (the primary psychoactive substance in marijua-na) actually kills cancer and leukemia cells.

The study showed that medicinal mari-juana oil made from cannabis buds induc-es apoptosis in cancer cells. Apoptosis is the process referred to as programmed cell death (PCD) which occurs in multi-cellular organisms.

Basically, the tainted cells kill themselves. The benefits of medical marijuana in treating many ailments (including cancer and AIDS patients), while still hotly debated publicly, can no longer be argued based on many years of hard-core scientific research — research conducted by highly respectable, govern-ment-supported agencies.

Let’s face it: the NIH isn’t run by a bunch of dirty, lazy hippies. Still, the results from years of scientific research into psychotropic drugs has been and continues to be actively sup-pressed by the federal government for what-ever reason.

Another recent study from the Johns Hop-kins School of Medicine in Baltimore, Mary-land documents the positive, long-lasting effects of psilocybin, the active substance in naturally-growing ‘magic’ or ‘sacred’ mush-rooms, also known as “shrooms.” According to the results of this ground-breaking study, ingesting properly administered doses of psilocybin produces a mystical experience which includes the “transcendence of space

and time” and offers profound insights into the nature of spirituality and of reality itself. Shrooms induce mystical encounters in the user, but according to the study subjects, they also experienced happiness, joy and euphoria along with numerous positive, long-lasting social benefits.

Sixty-one percent of the study volunteers described the psilocybin experience as the single most spiritually significant event of their lives, with 83 percent rating it in their top five. The vast majority of volunteers also attributed the experiences to increasing their overall sense of well-being and contentment. For many, the experiments positively and permanently changed their outlook on life, on other people and on their own personal be-havior. Additionally, no long-term side effects in healthy people were noted.

The study, “Psilocybin occasioned mysti-cal-type experiences: immediate and persist-ing dose-related effects,” was published on-line in the journal Psychopharmacology back in June of this year, and it’s only the latest in a series of experiments conducted at Johns Hopkins University designed to examine the effects of psilocybin — shrooms — which have been used for centuries by various cul-tures around the world for divining purposes, for healing and for religious ceremonies.

Jerome Jaffe, M.D., from the University of Maryland School of Medicine, served as the very first White House “Drug Czar” during the Nixon Administration, and he had this to say:

“The Hopkins psilocybin studies clearly demonstrate that this route to the mystical is not to be walked alone. But they have also demonstrated significant and lasting benefits. That raises two questions: Could psilocybin-occasioned experiences prove therapeuti-cally useful, for example in dealing with the psychological distress experienced by some terminal patients? And should properly in-formed citizens, not in distress, be allowed to receive psilocybin for its possible spiritual benefits, as we now allow them to pursue oth-er possibly risky activities, such as cosmetic surgery and mountain-climbing?”

Indeed. The findings reinforced previous research at Johns Hopkins showing that psi-

locybin, when administered under well-de-signed clinical conditions, has a high proba-bility of leading to virtually identical mystical and/or spiritual experiences similar to the spontaneous episodes reported by mystics and shaman across all cultures throughout the ages, while not leading to drug abuse or insanity.

In fact, shrooms have already been proven effective in treating depression, alcoholism and other disorders. The research has also shown that these mystical awakenings are of-ten followed by positive changes in attitudes, mood, life satisfaction and personal behavior — including altruism and forgiveness.

Some of the follow-up comments from the study participants are truly fascinating. They include:

• “Virtually eliminated all religious prac-tices; much more spiritual now. Accepting of my parents and have a more open and honest dialogue with them now. Less judgmental …”

• “I try to judge less and forgive more. I no longer worry about money.”

• “I have an increased commitment to spir-itual practices; I think my heart is more open to all interactions with other people …”

• “I feel I relate better in my marriage. There is more empathy — a greater under-standing of people and understanding their difficulties and less judgment.”

• “Increased time for meditation. I think I’m even warmer toward people and more ac-cepting. I now believe I have something im-portant to tell people about how the universe works.”

• “I take more time in nature, with art. I feel closer to (my) children and parents. I am more comfortable with friends and acquain-tances. I am more committed to my career …”

• “I have a stronger desire for devotion, have increased yoga practice and prayer … I need less food to make me full. My alcohol use has diminished dramatically.”

• “Less concerned with the appearance of ‘spirituality’, while realizing more that ev-erything is sacred. I feel more accommodat-ing and forgiving toward both friends and strangers and less anxious to label them or convert them to my viewpoint.”

So you can readily see why mag-ic mushrooms are so dangerous to the establishment.

If everyone ate shrooms, the world would be a much more peaceful and loving place — at least according to the conclusions of cur-rent scientific research.

Don’t expect them to become legal any time soon, however.

Editor’s Note: This letter is in response to Jose Flores’ column, “Duck Pond service not without sin.”

Mr. Flores,

Your bitterness betrays you. “Criticizing intolerance is not in itself intolerance.” True. “Perhaps we should forgive the church so long as it agrees to give us back our public space.” False, but furthermore meritless.

Whose public space, exactly, is the Uni-versity? Surely UNM belongs to the students and citizens of New Mexico. I assume many of those self-same students and citizens are Catholic. But wait — we can’t be openly Cath-olic lest we indoctrinate those around us. Per-haps our UNM belongs only to the faithless; the faithful; the liberal; the conservative.

Our public space, yes, therein lies the rub. Claiming the Duck Pond as your own while excluding others for their be-liefs (political, moral or otherwise) is in-tolerance. You cannot have it both ways. Furthermore, behind your fancy long sen-tences lies an inordinate amount of blame. I’m fairly sure that none of the participants at the Duck Pond service were actually present during the Crusades, Inquisition and African slave trade.

Most likely the participants in the service were not the most recent perpetrators, ei-ther. However, if apologies are in order, take this one: I apologize that you were offended by history. I suppose I should include history as a whole, not just religious history. After all, the ongoing events in our own country merit apology — slavery, religious persecution, big-otry and the like.

I apologize that you require Catholics as a whole to suffer for the transgressions of Cath-olics individually. I apologize that I wasn’t present during those events and that I’m try-ing to live my own life, here and now. I apolo-gize that my indoctrination offends you.

Finally, while you choose to view the re-ligious doctrine of Christ’s crucifixion as the celebration of a murder, I choose to see it oth-erwise. I see is the willing sacrifice of life for another’s sake.

Would you take away the sacrifice of a mother who dies in child birth, a soldier who defends your freedoms and a police of-ficer who defends his city? While I wish I could prevent these sacrifices, each of these is the willing surrender of life to aid another. Perhaps I am indoctrinated, even though I am not a Catholic. Fortunately, at my university, it’s allowed.

CARSON CITY, Nev. — Dozens of 911 calls made from in and around a Nevada IHOP where a deadly shoot-ing rampage took place Wednesday detail a frantic scene, as witness-es described the gunman and dis-patchers tried to determine if more than one person was involved.

“There’s a shooting in the IHOP! Get there right now!” yelled caller Ralph Swagler, owner of Local’s BBQ next door, as shots rang out in the background.

“Now he’s coming back out. He’s shooting people in the parking lot! He’s shooting at us now!”

A female caller instructed the dis-patcher to bring several ambulances and said: “There’s a guy shooting everyone!”

Tuesday’s attack by lone gunman Eduardo Sencion, aka Eduardo Perez Gonzalez, left four dead and seven injured. Sencion also killed himself.

Officials released the victims’ names Wednesday as the search for a motive — and a time of grieving — continued.

“This is unquestionably the most devastating attack in Carson City’s history,” Carson City Sheriff Kenny Furlong said. “Our town was shocked to the core.”

The dead included three Nevada National Guard members — the same number of Nevada Guardsmen who have died while serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. They were Sgt. 1st Class Christian Riege, 38, of Carson City; Major Heath Kelly, 35, of Reno; and Sgt. 1st Class Miranda McElhiney, 31, of Reno.

Also killed was Florence Donovan-Gunderson, 67, of South Lake Tahoe. Donovan-Gunderson was married to a retired U.S. Marine Corps member.

At a news conference Wednesday, Brig. Gen. William R. Burks described the slain National Guard members as dedicated and active in their fields.

He said Kelly was a decorated officer and avid student of military history who was known for his dry sense of humor.

Kelly was married with two kids, and served in Iraq from 2004 to 2005. He was deployed while on active duty with the Army, not as a mem-ber of the Nevada National Guard.

Kelly was a field artillery officer in the Army for seven years before joining the Guard about six years ago, according to the Nevada National Guard’s quarterly magazine, Battle Born. The magazine said Kelly led about 140 soldiers at the Nevada National Guard’s joint force headquarters in Carson City after being promoted to commander in

August 2009.Burks said Riege was a fitness

buff and father of three who had also been in the Navy. Riege’s military oc-cupation was armor crewman, and he served in Afghanistan from 2009 to 2010.

McElhiney was an administrative sergeant who had been in the Guard for 13 years. She served soldiers in the medical, dental and human resources fields. She also had a side business making cakes and cupcakes and would always bring goodies when people got a promotion, officials said.

Burks said Guardsmen overseas are grieving the service members’ loss, and were being told to maintain focus.

The rampage started just before 9 a.m. Tuesday, when Sencion stepped onto the pancake house parking lot from his blue minivan with a yellow “Support Our Troops” sticker on it.

He immediately shot a woman near a motorcycle before charging into the chain restaurant. Witnesses said he had unloaded a magazine when he was still less than 12 feet from his vehicle.

Inside the IHOP, Sencion marched toward a table of uniformed National Guard members before shooting each one, and fatally wounding three of them, authorities said.

An Anderson School of Management class turned itself into a real-world marketing firm for students to gain hands-on experience while simultaneously serving the community.

MGMT 487 Promotional Management, taught by professor John Benavidez, will be working with the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) to start a recruitment campaign designed to attract more doctors and health care professionals to the unarmed uniform service organization dedicated to disaster relief.

Eric Estvanko, the student proj-ect leader, said the class is different from anything he has taken so far at UNM.

“It offers great real-world op-portunities and experience that you can’t get from reading a textbook or sitting through lectures, giving stu-dents an advantage over other job applicants in an increasingly com-petitive job market.”

Students are assigned various roles, from advertising to marketing to administrative positions, that would exist in a real company. Estvanko said coordinating a marketing firm without a company presents some difficulties.

“The only real problem is trying to coordinate so many schedules outside of class,” he said. “Had the 23 students in the class all been em-ployees at the same marketing firm, we would all have time to work to-gether on the same 9-to-5 schedule, instead of being students trying to work around it.”

Despite that difficulty, student Victoria Gonzales said the project was exciting — she said the USPHS representative made it clear that the class was doing something beyond just gaining work experience.

“He really made it clear that the type of people who do his line of work have to have a passion for help-ing those who are underserved,” she said. “They’re a group of skilled med-ical professionals who are genuinely excited about helping people.”

Having completed its re-search, the class is ready to start its campaign.

Benavidez said the excitement is noticeable.

“So far they have exhibited a great deal of initiative, and I fully expect them to meet or exceed the measures of success outlined by the client,” he said.

Tibetan monks, though driven out of their homes, still � nd a way to keep their native culture and religion.

� e Gaden Shartse Cultural Foundation is bringing monks from the Gaden Shartse Monastery in India to Albuquerque this week for a series of cultural events including dances, rituals and puri� cations.

� eir stop in Albuquerque is one of many on a global tour to promote Tibetan Buddhism and culture.

Jangchub Chophel, spokesman and translator for the monks, said the tour was critical to maintaining the heritage of Tibet.

“Because of the Chinese invasion into Tibet — the destruction of 6,000 monasteries — the Tibetans have lost quite a bit of their culture and their traditions,” he said. “So now, Tibetans are actually the minorities in their own country; there’s more Han Chinese than there are Tibetans.”

Chophel said India created refugee camps for the displaced Tibetans in the ’60s in an attempt preserve their culture, but Indian culture and Tibetan culture are so similar that they are becoming indistinguishable. Also, the Tibetan culture and the Buddhist religion are closely intertwined, but Chophel said it is just as important to focus on culture as it is on the religion.

“When we get into an actual culture that’s literally being wiped o� the face of the earth, it’s important to preserve those aspects as well,” he said. “Buddhism will survive; the Tibetan culture, that’s questionable.”

In order to save the way of life they cherish, Chophel said the Gaden Shartse monks decided to create an educational foundation, and thus their world tours were born.

“We can really work with universities and public places to bring the monks and be able to share things like sand mandalas and other cultural experiences,” Chophel said. “It really allows us to get into the culture and share some of that, the actual ancient traditions not just the religious ones. � e non-pro� t aspect allows us to put money back into the refugee settlements.”

Chophel said Tibetan culture needs worldwide support and recognition to achieve this goal.

“To preserve your culture is not to keep it isolated and separate … (but) to be able to share with others,” he said.

Before the Chinese invaded, Chophel said, one-third of the Tibetan population was monks and nuns, and those who weren’t directly involved

in the study of Buddhism still had a spiritual understanding of the world.

“So in the folk dances and all of the di� erent rituals they have in regular life, there’s always the element of o� ering for others, preserving life, honoring the natural energies of plants and animals, living in harmony with nature, not destroying the mountains or the earth,” he said. “� ey would never dig for gold or anything like that.”

Chophel said the monasteries were supported by the communities, and in exchange the communities received spiritual ful� llment from the monasteries. Without the community, the religion vanishes.

“Now who supports the monasteries in India?” he asked.

For now, it seems Albuquerque could be that support while experiencing their religion � rst hand.

� eir program includes many traditional Buddhist rituals including the creation of a sacred sand mandala (which occurs at UNM); the Tara Puja ritual, an ancient Buddhist chant which honors the female Buddha, and a performance of the sacred Tibetan dances and chants. As with every ritual, Chophel said the sand mandala has many layers of signi� cance.

“When it’s completed, you’ll see a beautiful, rich, symbolic representation of art in grains of sand that represent the whole path to enlightenment,” he said. “Meditators can actually enter them, and they’ll sit in these mandalas holding the visualization of being there and being Tara herself. � is one gets created with all these elaborate symbols that have all these layers and meanings.”

Although the tree of Buddhism has many branches, each of them is based on the same basic teachings and principles.

The religion is based on the Four Noble Truths: there is suffering; this suffering stems from desire; suffering ceases when desire ceases; and freedom from suffering can be achieved by following the Eightfold Path according to Buddhist teachings.

What keeps us bound in this cyclic existence of inherent death in life is karma from past lives, Jangchup Chophel, a monk from a touring Tibetan monastery, said.

“We’re just kind of mindlessly going through this, and it’s unnecessary,” he said. “One of the more modern day examples that they’ve shown is in ‘The Matrix’, and that’s a Buddhist movie, and they try to put themes into it. That this world we see is really a construct of our karmic imprints. That’s how we see the world.”

This karmic imprint, he said, explains why some are born into more fortunate situations than others.

Buddhism teaches different methods of achieving oneness with the universe, the final destination on the Eightfold Path. Following this path to enlightenment, people shed the ignorance of their focus on selfish desire.

These competing desires create the “unsatisfactoriness” that Chophel said better explains the suffering the Buddha referred to. The level of “unsatisfactoriness” a person experiences in life is dependent on the karma they’ve

accumulated from past lives.“A lot of people don’t realize

that we have hell — it’s just temporary,” he said. “You die and take a new form. … So it’s really unnecessary. You can have lasting happiness. You don’t ever need to die, and you don’t ever have to be subject to karma.”

The first step is in correcting ones perspective and intentions. Chophel said that people tend to think of themselves as independent and separate individuals. Upon consideration of something such as how many people it takes to make a piece of bread, Chophel said it is clear that this is not the case.

“In getting the things that I want and avoiding the things I don’t want, I’m going to create all the delusions and karma that keep me trapped here,” he said. “For example, you’re my friend. Someone insults you. I get angry, I just created a delusion of anger. I create karma. I might do something mean.”

Once individuals realize they are part of the universe and not so different from other beings, the next step is to incorporate the

teachings of the Buddha into their life. This includes right speech, action and livelihood.

“Now we can slow down and concentrate and think about, contemplate,” he said. “Also, just taming our mind. Our minds run on automatic, and that’s that karma that drives us around all the time. We have busy lives, we don’t know where our keys are, we forgot what we were doing a minute ago, we’re not even present in the moment we’re in.”

Chophel said that a mindset that isn’t focused on selfish desire should then be cultivated. The seven conditions together create an environment conducive to personal growth, the penultimate step to achieving Enlightenment, he said.

“You start meditating on what is this really,” he said. “What is my body really? Am I my body? My mind? My thoughts? Who’s watching my thoughts? What am I? You start meditating on what we call emptiness, the empty nature of inherent existence. You start to learn to see things as they really are. And, if you’re able to really get a direct experience of what we call the non-dual nature of reality, we’re not so independent, see things directly, you are liberated.”

of the RigDzin Dharma Foundation, a local Tibetan Buddhist center, said the monks’ work is inspiring.

“What I think is really amazing about them is that they do travel around the world, and they teach everyone about these sacred healing arts” she said. “That’s a very beautiful thing. Not only are they teaching about their culture, but they’re dealing with community centers and giving a very profound blessing to the communities that they actually do their rituals in.”

Zozobra is a time for adults to burn their past, but might they not consider a child seeing it as murder of a precious local hero?

Author Andrew Leo Lovato’s most recent book, Elvis Romero & Fiesta de Santa Fe: Featuring Zozobra’s Great Escape, focuses on just that.

The book is loosely based off of the author’s childhood in Santa Fe, and he said the annual burning left a strong impression.

“We roamed the entire downtown on our bikes,” he said. “We had a lot more freedom to go exploring during fiesta times. Fiestas belonged to the kids. People are more protective of children, but also I think that we were more connected in some ways … it was more organic back then.”

The book focuses on two young cousins, Elvis and Pepa, during the Fiesta de Santa Fe

of 1964. Lovato said he wanted the book to be relevant for all generations, including parents and grandparents.

“I wanted it to be a book for everybody … to capture the feeling of children growing up in Santa Fe in the 1960s. Zozobra is a perfect vehicle for telling that story,” Lovato said.

He said Elvis and Pepa’s characters are a conglomeration of different children from Lovato’s

own childhood.“They’re almost like the

atypical kids in the ’60s. Elvis might be a little bit of my best friend and a little bit of me,” he said.

The young cousins embark on an adventure to liberate Zozobra before the eve of the celebration, but end up discovering a new perspective along the way, Lovato said.

“Elvis comes to the realization that, basically, Zozobra has a purpose in life: His mission is why he was created … to be sacrificed,” he said.

More than a colorful retelling of a young boy’s realization, the book is also a narrative of the past, Renee Tambeau, the Marketing Director at the Museum of New Mexico Press, said.

“It’s part memoir, part history, part touching story. Not much has been written about the fiesta in the 60s, so Andy’s memoir fills that gap,” she said.

Black-and-white photographs

of the fiesta’s past, courtesy of the Palace of the Governors photo archives, complete the story.

The exclusive photos also complement the last part of the book, a Fiesta de Santa Fe timeline, which chronicles the start of the Santa Fe Fiesta from 1625 to present day.

Lovato is working on what he refers to as an “outrageous Christmas sequel” to Elvis Romero & Fiesta de Santa Fe: Featuring Zozobra’s Great Escape which he plans to have completed by the 2012 holiday season.
