The president of CNM announced Wednesday that the CNM Chronicle can resume operations immediately and that Chronicle staff members have their jobs back. If you’re unclear as to what I’m talking about, see the story on Page 1. I see this decision as a victory in the name of free speech and in the ongoing battle to keep student publications free of administrative oversight.
On Tuesday, CNM administrators, in a ruthless and authoritarian display of censorship, stripped students of some basic constitutional rights.

On Friday, the man in my life called to say he was leaving me for another woman. I got the call three hours before we were supposed to meet for a sushi date and six days before the most romantic day of the year. It’s been a couple of years since I was last dumped, and I like to think I’m a more mature, composed woman now, one who has developed the tools necessary to handle this breakup like a real, live grown-up. The strategies I’ve been using to get over it have worked for me, and in honor of Valentine’s Day, my employees have asked that I pass these strategies along to any fellow heartbroken Lobos. I hope it helps.

The former UNM president accused of running an online sex ring could be off the hook after a judge ruled Monday that brothels can’t exist in cyberspace. New Mexico law defines a house of prostitution as a “place where prostitution is practiced, encouraged and allowed,” and according to court documents from Monday’s hearing, a website, online message board or computer is not a place of prostitution. The case is on hold following Monday’s ruling. F. Chris Garcia and David Flory, a professor at a New Jersey university are both accused of running the online prostitution ring Southwest Companions. On June 23, 2011, Garcia was arrested and charged with promoting prostitution, tampering with evidence and conspiracy for his alleged involvement with Southwest Companions, a 1400-member, multistate operation. According to KRQE, the New Mexico law that defines what is and is not a brothel hasn’t been updated since 1981, before the advent of the Internet as the world now knows it. Matthew Coyte, the vice president of the New Mexico Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, told KRQE that Southwest Companions was simply a site that connected prostitutes and potential clients. “Connecting people to do whatever they want to do is not illegal, it never has been,” he said. Coyte does not represent Garcia or Flory in the case. In the more than 50 years Garcia was employed at UNM, he served in positions such as provost, vice president of academic affairs and arts and sciences dean. He assumed the role of UNM president from August 2002 to July 2003. According to APD, Garcia used the Internet handle “Burque Pops” “and was one of seven site moderators known as the “hunt club.” According to a June 2011 Daily Lobo report: “Moderators are in charge of bringing in new clients and prostitutes and vetting members to ensure they are not law enforcement agents. Garcia and other moderators are paid little, if anything, for their moderation duties, Lt. William Roseman, the detective in charge of the case, said.” KRQE reported Garcia and Flory could still face other charges related to the case and that prosecutors could appeal the judge’s decision.

When I moved to Albuquerque from the great state of New Jersey nearly three years ago, I welcomed the addition of spicy chile sauces to fill the void left in my stomach after I discovered edible pizza and bagels were nowhere to be found. I happily embraced the dry climate and wide, open spaces, both of which were also new to me.
