New Mexican universities have seen increased enrollment this fall, and they’re chalking it up to online courses, new recruitment practices and, above all, the economy.

With roughly 10 percent more students attending, representa-tives from Eastern and Western New Mexico universities, CNM, New Mexico State and UNM all say the economy has encouraged New Mexicans to return to school.

Viola Florez, cabinet secretary of the New Mexico Higher Educa-tion Department, said a combina-tion of the stimulus bill and the in-creasing need for a college degree in the workplace have contributed to the enrollment trend.

“� ey’re � guring out that they really do need to go to college,” she said. “Today’s jobs require a mini-mum of a high school degree, and most of them require a college de-gree. I think that a lot of our recent high school graduates are doing their college degree.”

Florez said stimulus funding

has given students more opportu-nities for � nancial aid.

“� e stimulus funds have in-creased Pell Grants and work-study funding,” she said. “� at, also, is al-ways a support for our students and that has been made available to them.”

UNM Vice President of Enroll-ment Management Carmen Alva-rez Brown said the economic crisis has been a factor in the Universi-ty’s nearly 6 percent enrollment in-crease, but new recruitment e� orts also helped.

“I need to be realistic,” she said. “What percentage of the (increase) is the economy and what percent-age is attributed to our e� orts? And I would say half and half.”

Brown said enrollment man-agement now does on-the-spot ad-missions and has improved e-mail communications.

higher branch campus enrollment helped NMSU’s overall enrollment increase.

Sta� ReportDaily Lobo

An individual reported seeing a man on campus carrying what appeared to be a gun on Tuesday morning.

UNMPD o� cers searched the area, near Logan Hall, and issued the all-clear. Police have not made any arrests in connection with the incident.

University spokeswoman Susan McKinsey said the investigation is ongoing.

Guengerich said enrollment of-fices throughout the state’s institu-tions are always trying to increase enrollment.

“It’s something that all univer-sities address constantly,” he said. “You never sit back on your laurels

and hope all students find you.” Brown said New Mexico Tech

might not have seen as much of an enrollment increase this year be-cause recruiters weren’t proactive enough.

“They need to be more

aggressive in their recruitment plans,” she said.

Guzie said Tech’s lack of branch campuses — which is where NMSU attributed most of their gains — might also have been a factor in their slight enrollment decrease.

Beffort said the regents have to approve the Master Plan of Devel-opment, but voting on the project has been put off since December.

“We’ve had a nine-month delay from our original delivery date in attempt to get more input,” Beffort said. “What we don’t want to do at this point after putting so much time into it is try to slam something down somebody’s throat that they’re not comfortable with.”

Beffort said the Master Plan de-lay will not affect plans to build new dorms with the student housing de-veloper American Campus Com-munities. The new dorm location is planned for south campus, accord-ing to the Master Plan.

Beffort said the regents need to have more discussion on the dorms’ placement location, and the new dorm outline will be presented to the regents sometime this fall.

“American Campus Communi-ties has been working with our Mas-ter Plan group to decide on appro-priateness of location,” he said. “The project will have to be approved on by the regents.”

The new dorms and the Master Plan are connected, Beffort said, but do not depend on each other for approval.

Doug Fields, president of the Fac-ulty Senate, said the regents should consider input from the surround-ing community before expanding UNM.

“While the Faculty Senate appre-ciates the extended time to consider the Master Plan, we hope that com-mon concerns can be addressed for the mutual benefit of all,” he said.

The regents still need to hear many opinions on the Master Plan, Fields said. The Faculty Senate sug-gested creating a Master Plan devel-opment board that would give voting rights concerning the Master Plan to groups including students, faculty and neighborhood organizations.

“What we have informally pro-posed is that UNM have a UNM and Albuquerque development board,” Fields said. “This will give voting rights to a broad spectrum of inter-nal and external constituents in or-der to come to a consensus on the Master Plan.”

In a statement delivered by fellow senator Abdullah Feroze, ASUNM President Monika Roberts said she supports the Master Plan delay be-cause it gives students extra time to make comments about it.

“I’d like to thank President Schmidly and the Board for keeping the Master Plan open for comment and additional feedback,” Roberts said in the statement. “Since the Plan has been open I have done my best to get undergraduates to leave feed-back. I will continue these efforts until the Master Plan is finalized.”

Roberts said she is in favor of the proposed ACC dorms because the company has done a good job getting student input on the future dorms.

“As a student representative, I have seen many of the ACC commu-nities around the region including the University of Arizona, Texas A&M and the University of Houston,” Rob-erts said. “I would like to express my support for this company. At each of the campuses I visited, they had a positive impact on student housing and student life in general.”

Editor, It has now been three months since the

democratically elected president of the Re-public of Honduras was forced into exile af-ter a military coup. Since President Manuel Zelaya was forced from office at the barrel of a gun for attempting to redistribute wealth to the lower classes, he recently returned incognito and has been holed up in the Bra-zilian embassy in the capital Tegucigalpa. The puppet regime that illegally took pow-er since this national violation has made it common practice to murder and torture

Zelaya supporters, shut down opposition radio stations and imposed martial law.

How has the U.S. responded to this viola-tion of democracy in its own hemisphere?

The U.S. ambassador to the Organiza-tion of American States Lewis Amselem said, “The regime should manage security with restraint and caution. President Zelaya should exercise leadership in urging his fol-lowers insistently with no mixed message to express their views peacefully.”

Hypocrisy drips from each word of the ambassador. Not only has the interim gov-ernment shown no restraint at all in its treatment of Zelaya supporters, it is a testa-ment to the character of Zelaya supporters that they have chosen to listen to their an-gels and have not used retaliatory violence

against the security forces of the state who have maimed, beaten and shot them dead for the past three months. Once again, the political leadership of the U.S. seems com-plicit in that God-awful tradition of claim-ing to support democracy in rhetoric but supporting tyranny and slavery in action.

What will happen next is unclear, to say the least. The puppet regime is threatening to break into the Brazilian embassy to ar-rest, and most likely murder, President Za-laya. Let us pray that they are not so fool-ish, because it is very unlikely that such an action would lead to anything less than a bloody civil war.

Editor, I’m glad the Daily Lobo is covering GPSA

meetings, even the oh-so-boring and tech-nical Constitutional Convention we held this past Saturday. A special thanks should go out to the 16 GPSA Representatives, and President Lissa Knudsen, who attended and seriously contributed to our efforts to im-prove our student government.

Unfortunately the Lobo headline, “GPSA set to open council meetings,” gives the im-pression that open meetings are something GPSA is considering for the first time. In ad-dition, the content of the article blurs sev-eral intertwined discussions about cyber meetings and broadcasting meetings into one.

GPSA Council meetings have always been open to the public. What we were discussing, in terms of open meetings, was simply when to pass the GPSA Open Meetings Act Resolution: at the first or the

second meeting of the semester.This year, the GPSA Council had to meet

on the first week of school because our con-stitution requires that we meet every month and school started on the last full week of August. This got some people thinking that maybe it was unfair to have new representa-tives vote on something so important with only a couple of days notice – especially since our constitution already covers most open meetings requirements and the rec-ommendations coming out of the conven-tion strengthen those requirements.

As to the discussion reported about audio and video conferencing, it was really two in-termingled discussions that were confused together both at the meeting as well as (un-derstandably) in the Daily Lobo article.

The primary discussion had to do with allowing GPSA subcommittees to meet vir-tually. With the way the language was writ-ten, that means conference calls, which would exclude the public from participat-ing. Right now anyone can attend both the GPSA Council meetings as well as subcom-mittee meetings. If subcommittees were to be able to meet via conference calls, only

those in the know would be able to “attend.” That’s just plain wrong – which is why I cast the tie-breaking vote against allowing sub-committees to meet virtually.

There was never a serious discussion of the whole GPSA Council being able to meet virtually. In fact, the Constitutional Convention specifically recommended that members will have to be physically present to achieve quorum.

The side discussion, which was not on the agenda because it did not pertain to proposed changes to the GPSA Constitu-tion, was about broadcasting GPSA Coun-cil meetings. This issue has come up before and previous administrations decided that GPSA can’t afford to broadcast its meetings. If someone could come up with a cost-free way to do so, I would jump at the opportuni-ty, but right now we can’t afford the equip-ment or the camera operators.

In the meantime, giving prompt, ade-quate notice and keeping physical meetings open to everyone will serve our public well.

Lobo article gives the wrong impression of GPSA meetings

FROM THE WEBIn “Assistant coach: Locksley hit me,” pub-

lished Monday, the Daily Lobo reported that Athletics Director Paul Krebs reprimanded football head coach Mike Locksley after an altercation between Locksley and receivers coach J.B. Gerald. Readers at DailyLobo.com responded:

by ‘lazo’ Posted Monday“Disgusting. Anyone, student or sta� mem-

ber at UNM, should be disappointed at this kind of behavior.”

by ‘abqwoman’ Posted Tuesday“Final comments on this sta� member’s

� tness to be a UNM employee:Two minimum requirements of a head

coach are:1. Ability to make administrative/proce-

dural decisions and judgments. and2. Ability to foster a cooperative work

environment. Interestingly, UNM’s head football coach

has only the minimum education of a bache-lor’s degree. � e assistant he struck in the face is a dissertation away from a Penn State Ph.D. Coach Locksley must have problems foster-ing a cooperative work environment with as-sistants whose graduate work is from a Big 10 school while he stopped with a bachelor’s from Towson University. Which man is more likely to encourage academic work beyond a bachelor’s for his student athletes? Which man has demonstrated more mental self-dis-cipline? But which man got sent home after the so-called ‘altercation?’”

by ‘JubJub’ Posted Tuesday“Why is it that the victim assistant coach

gets sent home on administrative leave when the perpetrator has a talk with the athletics director vice president? And the words that come out of their mouths about the assistant coach, ‘We would welcome him back’ makes it seem like the assistant coach was the wrong-doer. Shame on UNM Athletics. … Oh yeah, by the way, coach Locksley makes $750,000 a year plus bonuses. I wonder if he gets a per-formance bonus this year, when the rest of the University sta� gets nothing, not even a state wage increase.”

by ‘Mark’Posted Tuesday“Ridiculous! Until now I was all in favor

of giving coach Locksley some time to re-build the program even though things haven’t looked very good so far. I really don’t think coach Locksley is capable of leading the Lobo football program. As a leader you resolve dis-putes and di� erences, not create them. Like many others have commented, if that kind of incident had taken place outside the ath-letic department somebody would have been � red.”

by ‘Buck’ Posted Tuesday“In the real world if an employee strikes

another employee he is � red on the spot. In the real world that company could not a� ord repercussions such as a lawsuit or poor press. Krebs should � re Locksley or step down re-gardless of whether the Lobos’ record is 0-4. If Locksley punched Krebs would he get � red? Simple, cut and dry, � re him or step down!”

Hospitals usually aren’t known for high-class art, but cardiologist John Abrams is trying to change that.

For about 20 years, the UNM Hos-pital has provided space in its hall-ways on four floors for artists to show their work, Abrams said.

The hospital recently named the gallery after Abrams to honor his dedication to the gallery, which has exhibited more than 100 shows.

Communication and Journalism professor Miguel Gandert said he was the first artist to display his art in the hospital gallery about 20 years ago, before he was a professor.

Gandert now has a show of black and white photography prints up at UNMH.

“One of the great things for me was that before I was a professor I was a struggling artist. The hospital gave people like me a viable place to show work, and serious work,” he said. “The beauty of this hospital is that we have this changing gallery where we get to see a lot of different kinds of art and different artists.”

Abrams said having art in the hospital has had a positive impact on patients because many of them don’t have the opportunity to go to art galleries.

“There is a school of thought that goes along with alternative medi-cine folks that suggests paintings or beautiful things are able to improve the mood and that makes people feel they are respected,” Abrams said. “But we haven’t tried to mea-sure it. But my measure is people who stop and look at the paint-ing even though they might not be headed for the gallery. That’s what I feel is a successful approach to the community.”

Gandert said his exhibition fits right in when it comes to showing off New Mexico’s culture to patients.

“A lot of the clientele of the hospi-tal are people who come from these different communities,” he said. “This is a New Mexico hospital, so why not show art about New Mexico?”

Abrams said he and another hos-pital employee came up with the idea for the gallery and brought it to

Plays put unique spin on traditional ‘Dracula’ tale

UNMH gallery benefits artists, uplifts patients

by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo

Dracula swoops into UNM this weekend as a harbinger of the Hal-loween season.

“The Land Beyond the Forest: Dracula and Swoop,” produced by the UNM Theatre Department in con-junction with the Tricklock Theater Company, features the original ad-venture of everyone’s favorite vam-pire and a new tale set over the skies of Manhattan. Both plays are written by Mac Wellman and directed by Bill Walters.

“There are several versions of ‘Dracula,’ but this version is written by Mac Wellman, who is one of the most experimental and influential Ameri-can playwrights,” Walters said. “He’s trying to do two things at the same time. On the one hand, he’s trying to stay faithful to the text, but on the oth-er hand, he’s trying to add something new to that, and that’s our challenge, too.”

Wellman will also be coming from New York to see the show, adding more pressure to an already challeng-ing production, Walters said.

The play will be performed in the Carlisle Performance Space rather than in a traditional theater. Walters said the gym has more space and pro-vides an unconventional setting.

“Mac Wellman as well as myself find the conventional theater archi-tecture a bit too confining, and we wanted to challenge people’s expec-tations,” he said.

Stage Manager Nicole Ouellette

said this rendition of “Dracula” has a darker and more grotesque mood than previous productions, and the cast and crew strove to emphasize the difference.

“We had to find a way to make it different than the ‘Dracula’ we all know and love,” Ouellette said. “We wanted to add more obscure ele-ments of blood and other bodily flu-ids. The actors will hopefully be in a few centimeters of blood by the end of the show.”

Student Serouj Bingham, who stars as Dracula, said he tried to break away from the traditional expecta-tions for the character.

“In terms in coming up with a character, he’s a monster,” Bingham said. “The only thing about this pro-duction is he is not a monster. He’s not Frankenstein or the werewolf. He just happens to be a noble gentleman with a penchant for sucking blood.”

Bingham said Dracula is a great character because of his ability to transcend societal rules.

“He’s a person who just meets his needs,” he said. “All of my dialog

is very direct. A lot of characters are struggling against a Victorian mold they have to operate within, but my character is completely free to step out of that.”

Walters said the second play, “Swoop,” is written as if Wellman com-piled the outtakes from the first play.

“Swoop,” a play about Dracula in New York, is performed between the first and second acts of “Dracula” to provide perspective, Walters said.

“I got the idea to put ‘Swoop’ in be-tween act one and act two of ‘Dracu-la’ to create a counterpoint,” Walters said. “So we don’t just have the Drac-ula story, but also we have a more

authentic version of Mac Wellman’s dramatic voice.”

The entire production runs over two hours with two intermissions, but the audience gets to see two plays, Ouellette said.

“It’s going to be a lengthy show,” she said. “But it’s all intertwined and it will continuously flow. Hopefully, it’ll keep everyone engaged and in depth with the story.”

Walters said that during intermis-sions, viewers can visit a model Vic-torian community constructed by the production crew in the Carlisle Courtyard.

“We’re going to have party lights

and an environment out there,” he said. “People can come out during in-termission and have a cup of tea.”

Walters said the audience will be entranced by this elaborate production.

“I think people who are famil-iar with the ‘Dracula’ story will see those characters, they’ll see that story happening,” he said. “At the same time, if you are a little more acquainted with what experimen-tal theater is about, people will also find it challenging in that way. The whole idea is to keep people a lit-tle off-balance and opening their minds.”

the attention of the hospital admin-istrative staff.

“Many hospitals have art up on the walls but most of it isn’t fancy art, or at least it’s not art that you would buy,” he said.

The hospital supported the initia-tive to have art in the hallways at the outset and have continued to support it throughout the years, Abrams said.

“(Bill Johnson), who was the head administrator at the time, gave us a good budget of about $10,000, and it’s gotten to the point now where we have a full-time arts director,” he said. “We have a surprisingly positive ef-fect on the institution because lots of people who don’t look at art now get to see it.”

Gandert said the current photos

at the hospital gallery are images he used in a book called Nuevo México Profundo (Profoundly New Mexico) in 2000.

“I’ve actually had more people who have seen it here and comment-ed than in the original place that we hung it,” he said. “People know to come here if they want to look at good art.”
