Op-Ed: Beware dishonest, discriminatory landlords

Now that the semester is ending, many students will be seeking new living arrangements. For those desiring new apartments or houses in the UNM area, my experiences between the beginning of the 2016 spring semester and spring break may serve as a wake-up call to older students, especially if they happen to be questioning, assertive women. In my opinion, my experiences reflect, at best, a subjective attitude on the part of landlords, and at worst, age and gender discrimination.

Editorial: Admin should lead charge against sexual assault

The Department of Justice’s report, released last Friday, detailing the cracks in UNM's approach to combating sexual harassment and assault, is a jarring read. But, in many respects, President Bob Frank’s response later that same day was just as concerning. Frank and other University officials said that the DOJ report doesn’t represent the whole story, that UNM has prioritized the problem by conducting its own investigation, and that they have already implemented a variety of tools and procedures that can be utilized, including opening the LoboRESPECT center and establishing a 24/7 hotline.


University President Robert Frank speaks at a conference held to address the Department of Justice's findings regarding sexual assault on UNM campus Friday April 22, 2016. Several UNM departments and organizations, such as UNMPD and LoboRESPECT, have issued statements regarding the DOJ’s findings.

Letter: K-9s should not be set on civilians

This barbaric practice of our police sicking large and ferocious attack dogs on citizens should stop. Thus in Albuquerque, what exactly happened when a paranoid schizophrenic camper in the Sandia foothills had a police dog sent at him? One report stated that the dog had been sent to bite him.  Even a normal, innocent person would be terrified enough to fight back instinctively and with no time for thought when a dog is coming at you off leash.

Letter: Rape is not complex, its assault

I just read the article cited in President Frank’s Weekly Perspective – 4.25.2016, “Justice Department Releases Findings of UNM’s Response to Sexual Assaults On Campus,” and noted what President Frank said with some dismay: that UNM faces the “impossible goal” of stopping sexual assaults because, in part, they frequently occur in “incredibly complex situations” and “involve alcohol and drugs.”
