by Troy Linthicum Daily Lobo Guest Columnist Ever wonder what it would be like to look back in time just after the Big Bang, or view planets orbiting other stars?
“Red or green?” may be the state question, but for the local chile industry the question is, “Is it grown here or there?” Gov.
The Board of Regents approved $10.5 million in cuts to the University’s budget Monday, and the Office of Equity and Inclusion was among the hardest-hit programs. Rumored to be cut completely, OEI budget was instead cut by $136,320, meaning it will have to terminate five positions within the department.

Editor, I was shocked to hear Tuesday about the recreational facility proposed as a supplement to Johnson Center and Johnson Field.
There is no shortage of reasons to hate Facebook. The time sink, the obsession; the passive-aggressive atmosphere; the lazy cowardice disguised as social communication; the freedom and complete ease to stalk and be stalked; the way every Facebook user is targeted, and their information sold and used to keep the depraved cycle working. Facebook is like high school never ended.
Dear Facebook: I love you so. You give me access to others’ lives without the slightest effort.
The marginalized will be the majority — well, at least for one night. The OUTSpoken Queer Poetry Slam started in October as a quarterly event, and in June it will culminate in the PrideFest championships. Organizer Erin Northern said the Albuquerque slam poetry scene probably hasn’t heard all the queer voices because some are reluctant to put themselves in vulnerable situations.
Its content is experimental, but its success is proven. “Experiments in Cinema,” UNM professor Bryan Konefsky’s brainchild, returns for its annual showing at the SUB Theater on Friday, bringing a tour de force of film novelty to the state.
How do you engrave 2,000 space invaders on the face of a two-inch wooden cube? With lasers, of course.
Editor, Professor Wilcox’s letter should be circulated throughout the nation. As a fiscal, social conservative, there were many times when I was an undergraduate that I wrote in to critique the ruminations of “entitlement” espoused by some in academia.
Editor, I am a visitor to your planet. I am from a planet located in a distant and much older galaxy than yours.
Yesterday I read an article in the Guardian that exposed the FBI for destroying thousands of files in the 1940s, containing reports of alien spacecrafts (UFO’s) from all over the United States.
Apparently this really happened: During World War II, pinball machines in family restaurants exhorted players to “Kill The Jap.” How ugly, indeed. The Que Feo exhibit is a collection of artwork previously displayed at the 105 Art Gallery and created by artists’ collective Vistas Latinas.
Don’t try to read the whole course catalogue – it’s waaaayyyyy too long, and you’ll get bogged down in a lot of classes with names like “Radiation Oncology Physics” and “ST: NSMS GAANN.” Instead, let the Daily Lobo guide you through our entirely unscientific survey of the best classes at UNM.
ASUNM passed a resolution March 30 that proposed eliminating one graduate student position and adding three undergraduate student positions to the Student Fee Review Board. The resolution backs a Student Fee Review Task Force recommendation that contends changing the ratio of the SFRB would make it proportional to the student population.
The UNM Board of Regents decided not to increase student fees and approved a 5.5 percent tuition-and-fee increase that will raise costs to students roughly $305 next year. Tuition alone will increase 7 percent next year.
ASUNM plans to include two questions on its annual election ballot to determine if students are willing to pay for a recreational facility.
The UNM Japanese Language Club tried to withdraw funds it raised from its ASUNM account to give to the Japan relief effort, but discovered doing so would violate of the New Mexico State Constitution. The Anti-Donation Clause, article IX, section 14 of the New Mexico Constitution states that, “Neither the state nor any county, school district or municipality shall directly or indirectly lend or pledge its credit or make any donation to or in aid of any person, association or public or private corporation.” Because of the law, University policy prohibits organizations from donating funds in ASUNM accounts to any charitable or political organizations. George Gorospe, president of the UNM Japanese Language Club, said the club wanted to donate to Japan with money from fundraisers the club sponsored to support itself.
