While schools may find the more challenging test useful in selecting applicants, graduate student Tami Lynn said it could exclude qualified graduate school applicants without necessity. “Standardized testing does not mean anything when it comes down to your education,” she said. “I think everyone should be able to go to grad school, and upping the testing is just making it harder for people to have that opportunity.” Despite the difficulty, graduate professor Billy Ulibarri said earn- ing a graduate degree is becoming increasingly important. “e way I see it, more people have bachelor’s degrees now, which makes graduate degrees more valu- able,” he said. e data supports this claim. e unemployment rate is about 9.1 percent for people without grad- uate degrees, according to the Bu- reau of Labor and Statistics, but it is less than 4 percent for people with graduate degrees, and even lower for those with professional degrees and doctorates, according to a 2010 Politifact article.

UNM’s homeless seek food, relief
by Luke [email protected]
The homeless population in the UNM area has led some students, faculty and staff to feel unsafe, but City and University officials said policies and programs exist to keep the campus secure and take care of those in need.
UNM student Joshua Nifora-tos sent the Daily Lobo a picture on Aug. 29 of a homeless man, whom he said was drunk, urinat-ing on the side of the Commu-nication and Journalism build-ing that faces the bus stop. “I’ve been at UNM now for five years,” he wrote, “and I have seen drunks defecating in urinals and wiping themselves with the Daily Lobo.”
Niforatos said homeless peo-ple on campus create an uncom-fortable environment.
“I’ve seen female students constantly harassed by drunks and homeless individuals, some-times in groups, while walk-ing on campus or waiting at bus stops,” he said. Sergeant Trace
Peck, a UNMPD spokesman, said campus police commonly con-front the homeless in the early mornings.

Faith Miner is a funeral director at French Mortuary in Albuquerque. She moved to New Mexico from Illinois in 2005 after completing her degree in Mortuary Science. She said working as a funeral director is a rewarding job that most people don’t understand.
“There is no day-to-day — ev-ery day is different,” she said. “We are here to do what the family wants: We don’t push any beliefs or services on them, everything is individual, and we just try to re-spect that.”
French Mortuary provides pre-planning, embalming and funer-al services. Miner said death is a difficult topic for many, but she strives to counsel those in grief.
“Part of what is difficult is knowing what to say or how to act, because people deal with death in so many ways,” she said. “Some people, you wouldn’t even know it phased them, you see nothing outwardly; some people cry a lot, and some people get angry.”
She said the job is stressful be-cause it requires perfection.
“We bring together a wide range of services in such a short period of time,” she said. “It’s like a wedding with no notice. When a contractor messes up, say the flo-rist delivers the wrong flowers, it’s a big deal. It’s not just a mistake — it’s a disaster, because people are so emotionally charged.”
Miner said she views death dif-ferently since she began work as a funeral director.
“I see death as very scientific; There isn’t any mystery anymore,”
she said. “A lot of people worry about what is going to happen when they die, but I know exactly what is going to happen, to my physical body at least. It takes away the fear of the unknown.”
Her work brings religion into her life every day, but she said she is unsure about her own beliefs.
“Being around death makes me more comfortable with it, but does make me aware of my own mor-tality,” she said. “It’s interesting to see how people from so many religions and cultures deal with death: Buddhists, Atheists, Chris-tians; people have such firm views about what they believe is go-ing to happen in the afterlife, and yet they are so different. I don’t know what is going to happen to my spirit when I die, if I have one. I’d like to believe in a God, but I am not sure I do, and I don’t know what the answers are.”
Many people think of funer-al director as an odd calling, but Miner said it is just like any other job.
“Some people want to be teachers, some people want to be doctors, and some people want to be funeral directors,” she said. “I’ve known I wanted to do this since high school. There wasn’t a specific experience that made me want to, it’s really just about help-ing people. A lot of people have a fear of death, and think of us as emotionless creepy old men, but the truth is a lot of young people work in this industry, and we are normal. We go home and watch movies and have families and things. You get to be intimately involved with something that af-fects everyone, and that is what’s special.”

ASUNM heard a proposal last Wednesday that encourages reduc-ing the number of Lobo Basketball tickets available to each student.
Kim Goodson, business man-ager for UNM Ticketing Services, said each year students can pick up tickets on scheduled distribu-tion dates. Each student is allowed four tickets, provided he or she has a valid student ID and can verify he or she is enrolled in at least six credit hours.
UNM Associate Director Brad Hutchins said the measure, which would reduce the number of sales to two per student, would ensure more students have a chance to get tickets.
“We are in the process of gath-ering feedback from our students
and should have a decision made in the near future,” he said. “We are working with (them) to come up with a solution that is mutually beneficial.”
He said the total allotment of tickets to the student body will not change.
Student Paloma Gonzales said she doesn’t see a problem with stu-dents getting four tickets at a time.
“If kids want to come and get tickets for their friends, I don’t think it matters as long as they’re going to the games,” she said.
Gonzales said she hopes to get tickets to this season’s basketball games.
“I know they sell out pretty quickly, so I’ll have to be on it,” she said.
Cassandra Thompson, ASUNM chief of staff, said in an email that the senate would conduct a survey
to determine students’ opinions on the issue. ASUNM is also exam-ining whether seating should re-main assigned or change to gener-al admission, according to a press release.
Hutchins said the proposal is a result of students’ suggestions about the process. He said Lobo Athletics has met with student leadership several times.
“Our goal is to present an op-tion in conjunction with the stu-dent leaders to make sure it’s best for everybody,” he said.
The proposal also includes language that would increase the number of ticket distribution dates.
“We want to make tickets more accessible, have them all enjoy a game and make them all aware that tickets are available,” Hutchins said.
Athletics: make do with two
security in every bathroom, nor am I requesting that all homeless people be kicked off campus,” he said. “I understand that UNM has become a palpable haven for numerous individuals that need and deserve help. I also under-stand that UNM is a public uni-versity. It just seems prudent to do something now before a pre-ventable tragedy occurs.”
Niforatos said UNM should do more to get the homeless off the streets; that the campus needs to find a solution that works for all parties involved.
“I believe UNM and the student body should be actively involved in outreach to help and support individuals suffering from dif-ferent forms of structural vio-lence. However, the library and other UNM learning facilities are not appropriate venues for such outreach.”
Student Conduct Officer Rob-ert Burford said students can re-port any type of harassment on campus to the Dean of Students Office or campus police.
“If we know who these people are, we can have them reported to our office or police,” he said. “We don’t want people harassing students on campus.”
One of UNM area’s homeless, Antoine Germain, said he often
doesn’t have a place to sleep or enough to eat, and UNM offers opportunities for both.
“I come here and ask for food or stuff just because there are a lot of people,” he said. “I have to watch for the police because they aren’t very nice to us usually. I don’t think they understand what it is like, really. The worst I ever
do is pee on campus, and I try not to bug people or anything.”
Germain said police rarely of-fer help to people who have no-where to go.
Albuquerque Rescue Mis-sion offers services to homeless in the UNM area. Spokeswoman Teresa Fleming said the Rescue Mission is willing to work with UNM and with the community to meet the needs of Albuquerque’s homeless.
“We have gotten feedback about people begging for pizza, or for one or two dollars at res-taurants, so we are giving out cards with our information to store managers,” she said. “That way they can give them to peo-ple who come asking for food and they can be directed to us where we have shelter, services and food.”
Fleming said the restaurant program was put in place last week, and she hopes to extend the program to UNM.
“That is certainly something we will look into doing,” she said. “We can give those cards to UNM’s police — that way they can tell the people where they can go. That really is the heart of the problem: they have nowhere to go, they move when the police come, but then they come back as soon as they are gone.”
Student Andrew Langston said homeless people on campus don’t bother him.
“They ask for money, or for cigarettes, but it’s not that big of a nuisance,” he said. “They never really do anything. Usually they say they need money for food or ‘just 35 cents to get down-town,’ but they usually want it for alcohol.”

Editor, Kudos to the University for installing signs around campus to remind bikers, in the most cordial words, to respect pedestrians and to share the roads. As a cyclist, I appreciate the civility of the gesture and hope that others recognize and follow these signs as well.

On Aug. 28 the Aquinas Newman Center was allowed to hold a public mass at the Duck Pond. The University granted permission and held the event in spite of protesters condemning the ceremony.
Unknown to those who missed this gloating occasion was the presence of several attendees who gracefully worshiped in the middle of campus, many of whom did know the annoyance and controversies that they were producing.
This ultimately raises the question: Can the Catholic Church, or any church, hold spiritual ceremonies in public areas? If so, does the church have the right to put itself beyond the realm of public scrutiny?
Some have argued “if you don’t like it, then you don’t have to go,” along with disparaging remarks of the spirit that criticism of the church constitutes intolerance.
Both of these statements are unacceptable because anyone can have an opinion about campus events. Furthermore, criticizing intolerance is not in itself intolerant.
In properly answering these questions one must concede that the Catholic Church can hold religious ceremonies at a semi-governmental institution because the University is not directly endorsing a religion nor is it forcing anyone to attend.
The University does not discriminate against religion, because many other religious organizations have been able to meet and hold public events on campus.
However, due to the church’s arrogant posture on this issue, those of us against
the idea of religious indoctrination now have the right to publicly denounce this hideous religion along with its heinous practices.
Amid these events the church may want to request forgiveness from those it harmed. Perhaps we should forgive the church so long as it agrees to give us back our public space.
We will accept the church’s apologies for the Crusades, the Inquisition, the persecution of Jews, the forced conversions of indigenous people in our hemisphere, the involvement in the African slave trade, the support for reactionary fascist movements like Francisco Franco of Spain, Antonio de Oliveira Salazar of Portugal and Benito Mussolini of Italy.
In more recent years, apologies seem to be in order for the rape and torture of young children around the globe, denial of birth control and reproductive rights for women, denouncing homosexuals as unworthy of heaven and finally taking the most reactionary positions in the Balkans War, Rwanda and Ireland.
Those who boldly protested Sunday did so under the banner of human dignity and, perhaps, against one or more of the issues listed above, if not some other atrocity I left out.
Of course, all of these actions are far more offensive than some pathetic ceremony at the Duck Pond. However, the ceremony in itself can also be construed as offensive, as expressed by student Peter Lundman.
Lundman was justified in saying that the mass was offensive, but wrong to compare the mass to a Hindu group planning a ritual blood sacrifice of a goat to Shiva or Kali.
I must say the Eucharist ceremony is far worse than a goat sacrifice. The ceremony of wine and bread is the celebration of the sacrifice of a human being for the purpose of relinquishing people of their responsibility, namely sins they have committed or will commit.
The primitive word for such a doctrine is “scapegoat.” I submit that his is an immoral and unethical doctrine and one of the most disgusting ideas ever promulgated.
No one can be washed clean of his or her responsibilities, especially by murdering someone else. Personal responsibility is what all ethics and morals depend upon.
The false position that one can be washed clean of sins directly allows people to evade personal responsibilities that might otherwise have been confronted.
Furthermore, according to Catholic beliefs no one can opt out of recognizing this sacrifice because if you reject the murder you will be barred from heaven, regardless of who you are.
Heaven is also a ridiculous idea, but it is a real place to millions of people. The church has, for the majority of monotheistic history, held a monopoly on the idea of heaven and has used it as a propaganda tool to convert and coerce the credulous.
In a life that revolves around the University, exchange of ideas is vital to advancing education. To take for granted preexisting ideas is to be intellectually lazy, as self-criticism is necessary for critical thought. Those who wish to put forth their religious practices in public must do so knowing that they put themselves in a position to be scrutinized by others and should also do some self-criticism along the way.

Editor,
I compliment and I thank many the Jews of conscience in the United States and in Israel who have spoken out loud and clear — publicly damning the Israeli government’s brutal oppression and mass murder of Palestinians.
I congratulate hundreds of Israeli Jewish soldiers who have refused to be soldiers in the West Bank and Gaza because of the constant atrocities the Israeli government commits against the Palestinians.
One former Israeli soldier said that Israeli soldiers committed, “… unimaginable practices against Palestinians, competing among themselves who could kill more Palestinians, bragging afterward about how many they killed, deliberately targeting and killing children simply walking home from school and slamming the heads of handcuffed Palestinians into concrete walls.”
Israel has illegally occupied and controlled the Palestinian territories — the West Bank and Gaza — for 44 years! The United States has used Israel in the Middle East to control the whole region because of our insatiable addiction to oil.
Federal income tax dollars buy the tanks, helicopters, bulldozers and missiles the Israeli military uses to terrorize, cripple, paralyze, slaughter and make homeless the Palestinian people. Israel receives billions of dollars from the U.S. government: it receives far more of our tax dollars than any other nation on Earth.
Every United States federal income tax payer pays for Israeli atrocities against the Palestinians. The U.S. empire has also supported for decades corrupt, bloody Arab dictatorships in Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia … in order to control the region because of the United States’ evil addiction to oil.
The United States routinely sides with Israel against the Palestinians. Most members of Congress and the major presidential candidates are scared to hell of condemning Israeli atrocities largely because of the powerful pro-Israel lobby in Washington, D.C. The Israeli military has killed hundreds of Palestinian boys and girls and has wounded thousands more. Scores of nations have often condemned Israeli persecution of Palestinians.
I oppose all violence by Israelis against Palestinians. I oppose all violence by Palestinians against Israelis. I strongly support peace and human rights for all people in Israel and in Palestine. Revenge and more violence are not the answer for Israelis or for Palestinians. I refuse to pay one penny of United States federal income tax for Israel to rob, torture and massacre Palestinians. I have paid no federal income tax for 32 years. I have ridden in no car for 10 years — greatly reducing my use of oil.
I urge Albuquerque’s Holocaust Museum (funded by New Mexico’s tax dollars) to stop its ban of the Palestinian people among the many severely persecuted groups it commemorates.

The men and women of Lobo cross country started off the 2011 sea-son in good form last Saturday in their first meet of the season.
Senior Nicholas Kipruto won the men’s 8,000-meter at the Lobo Invitational, held at UNM’s North Golf Course, for the second year in a row while the women’s team placed six runners in the top 15 in the 5,000-meter race with Ruth Senior placing second.
Head coach Joe Franklin said since it’s early in the season half of his runners, including returning All-American Natalie Gray, didn’t compete. However, he said the runners that competed on Saturday performed well.
“We held out quite a few people, but those that ran did a phenomenal job,” Franklin said. “Senior is one of the best runners in the country, and we saw some good things from some of the young ones, too.”
When the Lobos run again in two weeks, Franklin will play the other half of the team. But their first real opener is in four weeks, when the Lobos face Notre Dame.

most of the 8,000 meters, crossing the finish line in 24:19. The second-place finisher, Kip Mutai from Fort Lewis, finished almost a minute behind Kipruto with a time of 25:18.
Kipruto, a senior, said he had no doubts that he was going to win his fi-nal home meet.
“It’s the only home meet we have, and being a senior I told myself I was going to run smart and run good,” he said. “It was not as fast as last year’s time, but I was definitely going for the win.”
Redshirt Freshmen Pierre Malherbe and Edwin Herring finished in eighth and 19th, respectively, while freshman Allen Pittman rounded out the top 20.
On the women’s side, Senior placed second with a time of 17:29 in the 5,000-meter race and senior Kirsty Milner finished just behind her in third.
Senior said the fans inspired the team to a high finish.
“It feels really good to be at home,” she said. “There is really a lot of sup-port and people were cheering the whole way around. The first meet is a good marker of where you’re at. I knew I was running quite well, but you never really know until you race.”
Sophomores Kirsten Follett and Kaitlyn Barry finished in the top 10, placing seventh and ninth. Redshirt Sophomore Janna Mitsos placed 14th and freshman Sophia Torres placed 15th.
The Lobos took on NMSU, UTEP and a host of Division-II schools. No overall team score was held, but Senior said that the competition is going to get much better as the season goes on.
“There are some really good run-ners here, but this is not the same com-petition … as we would in regionals and nationals,” Senior said. “We are always going to finish higher up here, and it’s lovely at the beginning of the season, but the competition coming up will be way stronger.”

The Lobo football team lost its season opener, which might make it easy to dismiss it as the team with no improvement from last year.
Not so fast, though — there were a lot of positives from Saturday’s game.
Sophomore Linebacker Dallas Bollema, for example, led the team in tackles with 13.
“I felt like I played well,” he said, “but there are always corrections that we can work on and I just want to keep working on my techniques and getting better before every game.”
Head Coach Mike Locksley said Bollema’s strong performance didn’t surprise him at all.
“(Bollema) is a player who we have identified as probably one of the most complete players on our team. He’s only going to get better,” Locksley said.
He added that the defensive unit as a whole played well against Colorado State.
“I have to give the defense a tre-mendous amount of credit,” he said. “I thought they played hard, tackled well, and they ran to the ball. When we needed to get the ball back at the end of the game they gave us the opportunity.”
Bollema said he agreed with Locksley, and felt the defense played well enough to win the game.
“The defense felt good today,” he said. “We all came out today flying around pretty good, and the

Yes, there is a hockey team at UNM.
The UNM hockey team is a recognized club sport through the University and plays in the Pacific Division of the American Collegiate Hockey Association.
The club was relatively unknown until a group of UNM students de-cided to see if they could make the team bigger.
“It’s something that we have started off from basically nothing,” the team president Nick Madrid said. “Four years ago it was a little club on campus that no one had re-ally paid attention to. Then a bunch of local kids decided to join and get it together and it has really put us on the map.”
Unlike recognized college sports on campus, the UNM hockey team receives money from ASUNM, fundraising, ticket sales and player fees.
“The team costs around $30,000 to run every season,” said Grant Harvey, the team’s head coach. “Each player on the team also has

to pay a $750 player fee out of their pocket, so it shows how dedicated they are to this team when they pay so much to play.”
The bulk of the expenses are from the $100-per-hour fee to rent out the Outpost Arena for games and practice, and travel expenses for games on the road.
The team travels this year to face Northern Arizona University, Wyoming, Colorado School of Mines, Texas Tech University, Fresno State and Sacramento State.
Last year the team received around $12,000 from ASUNM and must propose a budget every se-mester in order to receive money.
Madrid said the team doesn’t al-ways get the funding that it needs, but that any little bit helps.
“We make up a huge budget and propose this budget to the student financial committee every semes-ter,” he said. “We rarely get all of the money that we ask in our bud-get, but we take whatever they can give us.”
The team has a combined 35-6-2 record over the past two seasons and plays in the most competitive
of the four divisions in the ACHA.Last year the Lobos made it to
the ACHA regionals for the first time in the team’s history. The team also beat 2009 national runner-up Colorado State last year on the road and had the highest average attendance of any team in the country.
Madrid said it can be dishearten-ing to have one of the best records of any sports team at UNM and still not receive any media coverage.
“We are one of the best teams at UNM, but we are unrecognized by so many people,” he said. “We have often been ranked top 10 in the na-tion in the ACHA and play some of the best teams in the country every season.”
Harvey said he was not worried about the lack of media coverage because of the support from the surrounding community.
“We are a class act wherever we go,” he said. “We have a solid group of fans that fill the stands for every home game, and we have most of the players back from last year that took us to regionals, and a few new players that will be good additions.”
coaches had a good game plan for us, so we didn’t really see anything that we weren’t prepared for today. We were ready for what came at us and hopefully the defense will keep doing this all year.”
Bollema said the team needs to learn from Saturday’s mistakes and move past them.
“We knew this was going to be a big opener for us, and it was a little shot to the heart taking a loss, but we have to keep our heads up and keep driving because we have a big season ahead of us and there’s a lot more games to play,” he said.
Quarterback Tarean Austin said the team will press on to the next game against Arkansas on Sept. 10.
“It hurts, but we have to move on to next week,” he said.
The Lobo football team hasn’t won a season opener since 2005, against UNLV, but Bollema said the team is more optimistic than in past years.
“I feel like we are a better Lobo team this year, and we’re going to keep preparing on that,” he said.
