UNM created the SFRB to ensure that students in particular, and program staff and community members generally, would have a say in how student monies are spent and that student fees would be dispensed in an open, transparent, carefully considered and democratic manner. This decision disregards the student and community voice by including a recommendation to cut all student funding for the Research Service Learning Program, Community Learning and Public Service, New Mexico Public Interest Research Group and a suspension of plans to fund the student’s request for a Queer Resource Center. The funding approvals now under consideration by President Schmidly and the Board of Regents are about far more than finances, budgetary restraints or keeping student fees low.

Editor, As much as my colleagues and I would like to join the celebration of the House’s passage of the health bill over the weekend, there is cause for serious reservation about the current course of health care reform. Instead of eliminating the root of the problem — the profit-driven, private health insurance industry — this costly new legislation will enrich and further entrench these firms.
