Student fees look, once again, like they’re going to increase by $10.10 to a total of $456.91 next year in order to fund three organizations and a Queer Resource Center.

� e groups and center were set to losing funding after Cheo Torres, vice president of Student A� airs, asked the Board of Regents not to increase student fees, a suggestion that con� icted with the Student Fee Review Board’s recommendation of a $10.10 increase in February.

Torres rescinded the recommen-dation in a memo addressed to Pro-vost Suzanne Ortega on � ursday. President David Schmidly and Ex-ecutive Vice President David Harris also signed the memo.

� e Board of Regents will make the � nal decision about whether to raise student fees at its budget sum-mit today.

Torres said he was against rais-ing student fees because he thought it would be a University-wide prac-tice to avoid fee increases in all UNM departments and programs. However, when he discovered that other groups like the libraries were asking for fee increases — and when

students barraged him with e-mails and phone calls — he decided to withdraw his recommendation.

“I was under the impression that we were not going to have any new fees,” he said. “And also I’ve gotten a lot of student input — a lot of e-mails, a lot of calls — and I said, ‘I would like to revise my recommen-dations and honor the Student Fee Review Board.’”

� e UNM Board of Regents may give a new meaning to cutting class-es at today’s budget summit.

Administrators will meet with several UNM departments in SUB Ballroom C to discuss and approve a � nal budget for the 2011 � scal year.

Raymond Sanchez, president of the Board of Regents, said that though UNM is facing a 7.7 per-cent reduction in state funding, he is con� dent the University is braced to handle it.

“All the way up the chain, we will � nd out what everybody needs and where we can have some cost sav-ings,” he said. “Last year, I think ev-erybody agreed that we did the bud-get fairly.”

Provost Suzanne Ortega sub-mitted seven recommendations for consideration. If implemented, they could result in an estimated $5.3 million in savings.

� e recommendations include increasing class sizes, rotating the classes o� ered and an adherence to the minimum-class-size policy. � is provision alone could save an esti-mated $792,000.

Regents will also be looking at recommendations from the deans, administrators and the President’s Strategic Advisory Team.

“Hopefully we can � nd some-thing there so we can avoid any lay-o� s, furloughs, cuts or anything of that nature,” Sanchez said.

� e PSAT also made short-term recommendations that, if approved, could save an estimated $5.8 million. � ese recommendations include

Daily Lobo asks you:Do you mind paying $10 more in student fees for organizations such as Research Service Learning Program, Public Interest Research Group, Community Learning and Public Service and Queer Resource Center?

“I wouldn’t mind paying extra. The one that caught my eye was the Queer Resource Center. I think it is a good opportunity for a lot of people. I would like to see more student-based programs around campus.”

Elizabeth BrooksSenior

Anthropology

“I wouldn’t pay the $10. We don’t really know where exactly the money is going to. When I first came here, I had no idea what student fees were for. If I knew exactly what the fees were being used for, then I would consider it.”

Deidre JoeFreshman

Psychology

“No, I don’t mind. I feel like it’s a lot like taxes. We pay a certain amount of money, and it is our responsibility to pay out of our own pockets. We don’t think about it as money that is taken away from us.”

Ashlee WrightGraduate student

Nondegree

“I think it would be fine. First of all, the job market is really tough. So, anything like this is really important to the students. I’m not here much longer, but I’d like to see the fees go towards the students and variety.”

Rembrandt Stokhof De

JongMaster’s student

a statement that she is pleased the administration decided to stand be-hind the Board’s recommendation.

“We are extremely appreciative of the administration’s decision to honor the recommendations of the Student Fee Review Board. The collaborative effort put forth by ASUNM, GPSA and the SFRB was thorough, fair and professional,” she said. “The board was gravely con-cerned about raising fees in this eco-nomic climate. However, we agreed that these four programs would have a direct impact on student suc-cess and/or further the mission of the University.”

Also, representatives from the Queer Resource Center and Public Interest Research Group said they were reassured by the administra-tion’s support. The SFRB allocated almost $85,000 to the QRC and al-most $50,000 to PIRG.

“I will feel relieved tomorrow af-ter the final vote goes through,” said

David Griffith, QRC spokesman. “I’m very pleased ... that the efforts this week have paid off.”

Breanna Hastings, PIRG spokes-woman, said the group asked stu-dents to call, e-mail and meet with administrators regarding the pro-posed cuts. The group also used Facebook to organize and cultivate support.

Support from ASUNMThe groups had backing from

the undergraduate governing body. ASUNM Senate passed a resolution supporting the SFRB on Thursday.

The resolution, which passed 19-0-1, stated that the Senate un-derstood the administration was at-tempting to keep costs low for stu-dents, but that the hours the SFRB put into their recommendation shouldn’t be ignored.

“We realize the impending tu-ition increase and its effect on our constituents, and we still see the SFRB’s recommendation as valid,”

according to the resolution. Sen. Melissa Trent, a sponsor of

the resolution, said she doesn’t un-derstand what the purpose of the SFRB or the ASUNM senate is if the administration chooses to ignore them.

“They listened to students for hours and hours and hours,” Trent said of the SFRB. “They had so much on their plate that, if they are ig-nored, I don’t see what the point of that is. I don’t see what the point of the ASUNM is. I think it is important that we send a message that we sup-port the students’ voice.”

The resolution doesn’t mention the specific programs on the chop-ping blocks — the Queer Resource Center, the Research Service Learn-ing Program, the Public Interest Research Group and Community Learning and Public Service. Trent said the resolution is meant to sup-port students’ voice and the SFRB.

“I would be here regardless of

what specific programs were see-ing funding increases or decreases,” Trent said.

Even so, each organization stood before the Senate to give support to the resolution.

Griffith, QRC spokesman, told the story of how a few people and a powerful message can make a change.

“This is an idea that (student) Jeffrey Waldo had brought before the senate in November and a few months later there was potentially $84,000 on the table,” Griffith said. “I think that sends a really strong mes-sage to all students on this campus.”

But he cautioned that can only happen if the administration ad-heres to the rules.

“I feel that only works when the system works,” Griffith said. “If the administration is going to disregard the SFRB recommenda-tions, we just go back to being a big school where everyone is invisible.

We don’t have a voice and can’t ef-fect change.”

The only senator who abstained from the vote was Travis Maestas, who serves on the SFRB.

He said that he was disappoint-ed that the senate didn’t contact the SFRB to make the resolution a little stronger. He also said he didn’t want to create a conflict of interest but said he supported the heart of the resolution.

He also warned against ASUNM candidates using this issue as a po-litical tactic to get elected.

Lazaro Cardenas, ASUNM pres-idential candidate, cosponsored the bill, and opposing candidate, David Conway, helped the sena-tors draft the resolution.

“I just don’t want this to be-come a campaign tactic,” Maes-tas said. “I know sometimes cam-paigns can get a little ugly, and I don’t want this, the student fees, to get involved in all that.”

New Mexico’s budding space in-dustry is blasting off, and it’s going to take the work of UNM students with it.

Spaceport America, located south of Truth and Consequences and expected to open business to passengers in summer 2011, will host an education launch May 1 with a UNM project on board.

Olga Lavrova, faculty adviser for the project, said the educational val-ue of allowing students to work on the project offered a futuristic appli-cation of classroom concepts.

“This was a great opportunity for them to take what they learned in the classroom as well as see a space-ship take off and land,” she said. “For us, since we are educators, we are interested in advising students who need the skills and knowledge that will be relevant to their future.”

New Mexico is an ideal location for the space industry to flourish, said David Wilson, Spaceport Amer-ica spokesman.

Events such as the education launch will hopefully inspire New Mexico students to study aerospace, Wilson said.

“We see a real need for schools to be involved because we are building an infrastructure for a commercial aerospace program,” he said. “We need to engage our students and get them active and interested by

using the spaceport as an educa-tional tool, and hopefully get more people into aerospace in New Mexi-co and create higher paying jobs for students here.”

The aerospace trade is quickly growing, and students need to be adequately prepared to work in the field through school, Lavrova said.

“Future employment here in New Mexico is bountiful. The com-mercial, scientific and education-al flights to space will require en-gineers and researchers,” she said. “There is going to be more and more demand for students to be em-ployed in the field, and they need to be able to come out of the University prepared for that employment.”

The spaceport is interested in investing in education to build the aerospace industry in New Mexico, Wilson said.

“We are really pioneering new grounds here,” he said. “We think that New Mexico can become one of the key places, because the low-cost access to space can allow it to be a regular place where universi-ties all over the country pay to go to space and do these educational experiments.”

UNM is one of eight education institutions taking part in the sec-ond annual education launch and is sending a series of programma-ble connectors to the skies, Lavrova said.

“It’s a variety of connectors that were manufactured through

different processors with micropro-cessors that will record if they con-tinue to work throughout the flight,” she said. “The miniature cube satel-lite will test the electrical integrity of connections inside to see if the con-nectors hold up during the flight to get the information.”

Ultimately, space-flight compa-ny Virgin Galactic hopes to revolu-tionize travel, Wilson said, making it more efficient and environmentally friendly.

“Today, a flight to Australia is 13 hours, and we take a big jet that burns fossil fuels for hours,” he said. “Virgin wants to evolve this tech-nology to where we build passenger ships that have the ability to carry hundreds of people and able to go from the U.S. to Australia in three hours. You go up to a high altitude and you burn a rocket for a very short time with nitrous oxide, which is more friendly to the environment. Basically, you don’t burn fossil fuels at an alarming rate for a long period of time anymore.”

Seats on the first passenger flights have already been reserved at $200,000 a ticket, Wilson said, but the price is expected to drop with fu-ture technological developments.

“The beginning of aviation had more affluent people funding it to get to where the common guy can fly, like he can today,” he said. “From a business model, the more affluent people pay to go first and then the price comes down.”

Students to send their work to space

$450 a year in student fees, and the board would like more flexibility in its recommendations.

“There may be a time when the board may feel that some of the ser-vices we are paying for may not be

necessary,” he said.The meeting will begin at 1 p.m.

and will consist of a vetting of all main campus departments and expenditures.

Sanchez said that though it may

look bad, UNM is still going strong in the midst of hard economic times.

“It will be a difficult time,” he said. “But we at UNM are in a much better position than most other universities throughout the nation.”

Rubbing my itchy eyes and blowing my runny nose after writ-ing my sixth prescription of the day for allergy medicine, I decid-ed it is time for my yearly article on allergies. � is is one of those topics that need repeating so at the risk of violating the write-something-new-every-week rule for columnists, here it is again.

Allergies tend to be bad in New Mexico because our climate is dry, meaning the pollen doesn’t get rained out of the air. Add to that our famous spring winds, and the result is a snoot full of pollen. Symptoms of seasonal allergies include itchy, watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, coughing, wheez-ing, headache and itchy skin.

If you never had season-al allergies anywhere else you lived, you have a good chance of

developing them here. � e major o� enders in the spring are trees like juniper and mulberry. In the summer, grass is the worst, and in the fall it is weeds.

Other common causes of re-spiratory allergies are animal dander, dust and mold. If you al-ready have problems with these, the seasonal stu� multiplies the whole response and the result is misery.

All is not lost; there are things you can do. In order of increasing technical di� culty, here they are:

Avoid the allergens. An aller-gen is whatever you’re allergic to. Now, obviously you have to breathe and you have to be out-doors sometimes. So you can’t completely avoid pollen. But you might be able to choose indoor time when the wind and pollen counts are really high. Also, close your windows at night. Trees drop most of their pollen in the wee hours, so don’t leave an open in-vitation, so to speak.

Get the allergens out of your environment. If you have indoor-outdoor pets, wipe them down when they come in. Even if you can’t see it, they are covered with dust and pollen. A damp paper towel will work. Wash your pillow-case often, so you don’t breathe in deposited pollen particles all night. Consider an air � lter.

Get the allergens o� of you. Wash or rinse your hair before

bed. Wash your itchy eyes with cold tears. By this I mean, put a bottle of arti� cial tears in the fridge, and apply liberally to � ery eyeballs. It washes the pollen out and feels oh so good! Dare to try a sinus rinse. You use a squeeze bottle or teapot-like item that you � ll with salt water and pour up your nose to rinse out your sinus-es. Not only does this wash the pollens and other allergens from inside your nose, it also loosens the mucous and makes it much easier to clear. I have some pa-tients who do a sinus rinse twice a day and don’t have to do anything else or take any meds for their al-lergies. It may sound gross, but once you try it, you’ll never stop.

Take drugs. From topical to oral, from over-the-counter to prescription, there are lots of drugs that block the allergic re-sponse or treat the symptoms. As with any medication, I rec-ommend starting low and go-ing slow. Try OTC eye drops and nasal sprays � rst, then OTC pills. Antihistamines are the class that blocks the allergic response. Oth-er useful drugs are decongestants to decrease the swelling in the nose, expectorants to help loos-en mucous and cough suppres-sants. If OTC remedies fail, come see us for a prescription. If you get wheezing or asthma with your al-lergies, you should see a medical provider.

Allergy shots are the last resort of the desperately, miserably al-lergic, whose symptoms don’t re-spond to all the other measures above. If this is you, you need to see an allergist and get skin test-ing to see exactly what you’re al-lergic to. � e allergist will then concoct a mixture of those things and give them to you in min-ute amounts by injection several times a week for a few years, until you are no longer allergic.

Lastly, remember the wise words of the very wise man or woman who said, “� is too shall pass.” Nothing is permanent. Life is always changing, and the pol-len will eventually subside.

Gesundheit and good luck!

Editor, I am writing to address an issue concerning

the upcoming ASUNM elections as a member of the Full Circle slate. I would like to inform the students of UNM that there was a very dis-respectful post on the Daily Lobo’s Web site on Tuesday afternoon, written under my name.

I did not write this post and I have ad-dressed this issue on the Web site. But I am very hurt by the comment that was posted and I am writing to urge both the Wolfpack and Full Circle slates running for ASUNM to respect each other and campaign using their own strengths, not the use of slander.

Speci� cally, I would like to remind sup-porters of both slates that their negative com-ments directed to opponents re� ect poorly on the slate that they are trying to support. Your support is vital to our success, but negative, o� ensive and hurtful comments have no place in this institution’s elections. In the words of my opponent and friend (yes, it’s possible), Greg Golden, lets “play nice.” After all, every-one’s a Lobo!

Two Lobos racked up two more national awards this week.

Cooper and Danny Granger.The news was followed Tues-

As if he was sitting in his favorite recliner, A.J. Butler was cozy at the tailback position on the UNM foot-ball team his freshman year in 2009.

Now his role on the Lobo football has taken an uneasy turn, but maybe not for the worse.

“I got so comfortable at running back, and I made good plays last year,” said Butler, who carried the ball 50 times for 177 yards and a touchdown. “But (head coach Mike) Locksley ap-proached me about the situation.”

Butler is talking about the UNM safety “situation.” � e Lobos are low on depth at the safety position this year, after two of the Lobos’ starters Frankie Solomon and Frankie Baca graduated.

Before spring practice began, Locksley approached Butler about switching from the back� eld to the secondary.

Butler said he embraced the idea with open arms.

“I played the position throughout

high school,” Butler said. “So, I am fa-miliar to it, and I know how to play it. � e thing that I have to get better at is learning the defensive schemes, the plays and the coverage. � is is so I can go out there and play the posi-tion, just like I played running back.”

Still, shouldn’t playing safety re-quire more thought out process than hitting holes created by o� ensive line-men, like it did so easily while playing running back? It probably does, and that’s why Butler was asked to switch positions, Locksley said.

� e Lobos’ head coach said Butler is one of the more intelli-gent football players on the team.“� at is one of the reasons why we felt we could make that move with him,” Locksley said. “He’s a talented run-ning back and athlete. So, with us be-ing thin in the secondary … it’s been a smooth transition thus far, and I think he has a chance to be a pretty good player over there on the defense.”

For Butler, he said that’s debat-able, but instead of taking brutaliz-ing hits, he can start dishing them out now.

“As a running back, (I) take hits and make sure I don’t take a big lick to hurt myself,” Butler said. “But at safety now, I have to get back in cov-erage and make sure I come up to support the run and make hard hits, also.”

Perhaps what might be more dif-� cult for Butler during his shift is get-ting used to his new coaches, defen-sive back coach George Barlow and defensive coordinator Doug Mallory.

But so far, he’s handled it easily, Barlow said.

In fact, Barlow said, the sopho-more is already proving himself in defensive back� eld.

“He understands the o� ense, and all he has to do now is understand what we are doing with our defen-sive schemes,” Barlow said. “But I think the game will slow down pretty good for him, because he has an idea of what the o� ensive is trying to do to us (as a defense). His transition has been pretty good so far. � ere were some guys out there that were totally lost. He wasn’t lost out there and has a feel for what is going on.”

Switching up from backfield to secondary

Varnado (Mississippi State), Matt Bouldin (Gonzaga) and Lazar Hay-ward (Marquette).

Both Hobson and Martinez were gracious

“I don’t play for the awards,” Hobson said. “I play for my team, our coaches and to win. I didn’t even worry about making the All-American team, and it really didn’t matter to me.”

Martinez showed a little more emotion than Hobson.

“It’s truly, truly an honor to ac-cept this award,” Martinez said. “It’s a privilege to be even in the same league and the same catego-ry as these other players. I am ec-static and I was looking down the list, you know, Tim Duncan and Shane Battier won this award. Ed-uardo Najera won this award, and he was won of my idols growing up. It’s just an amazing honor to receive this award and to be in the same class as these other seniors selected.”

Still, the Chip Hilton is not ex-actly the Naismith Award — which goes to the best college basketball player in the country annually — because Martinez had only heard about the award a week ago.

The award honors a Division I men’s graduating senior who dem-onstrates outstanding character, leadership and great basketball tal-ent — the same qualities exhibited in the 24-book Chip Hilton Sports Series. The book series, which was authored by Coach Clair Bee, en-joyed success in the 1940s through the 1960s. The books were re-re-leased by Randy and Cindy Farley in 1999.

The Chip Hilton Award has been handed out since 1997. The selection committee is comprised of big-time names in the college basketball world, such as ESPN an-alyst Dick Vitale, sports writer Bob Hammel, former CBS announc-er Billy Packer, Big 12 Conference commissioner Dan Beebe, ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bi-las, Providence Athletics Director Dave Gavitt and legendary coach Bob Knight, along with his son and Texas Tech head coach Pat Knight.

Talk about a guy with character.

Martinez studied for class on the flight home from San Jose, Calif., even after the Lobos were bounced from the second round of the NCAA tournament. As it stands, Martinez holds a 3.48 GPA and will graduate in May with a de-gree in business administration.

“It’s all the little things, doing homework when all the other guys are staying up and watching mov-ies,” Martinez said. “You just think back and all of the bed checks, making sure all the guys are going to class and making sure they stay out of trouble.”

Martinez said head coach Steve Alford has hammered home the importance of being a well-round-ed person in the Lobo program.

“It’s a part of UNM, of our pro-gram and the way Coach Steve Al-ford wants to do things,” Martinez said. “He has set up a culture that it’s a privilege to play here. Every-thing that happens to us is an hon-or to be here in this program. Not many kids get to have a full schol-arship, and I am lucky to be here.”
