Just five years after one profes-sor pioneered the creation of a video game design program at UNM, the program is revered as one of the best in the continent.

In 2007, Professor Pradeep Sen, who holds a PhD from Stanford University, founded UNM’s video game design program. This year, Princeton Review listed UNM’s program as one of the top-10 video game design programs in North America.

Sen, an assistant professor from the electrical and computer engineer-ing department, arrived at UNM in the fall of 2006. He said he came to UNM determined to do something new that would appeal to a younger generation of students.

“I wanted to find something unique to recruit students and get people ex-cited,” he said. “That is why I focused on video game development as one way to do it.”

In addition to teaching classes for advanced video game development, Sen has directed and released three video games through the Xbox Live service: “Magnetic Defender,” “Toybox Racing” and “Marauder Madness!”

“Our video games have gotten tens of thousands of downloads, which is not bad for a program that is (made) by few students,” he said. “However, our goal is to be famous and make games that everybody in the world plays.”

Sen decided to come to UNM as an assistant professor because the state

Career Profile:under former Gov. Bill Richardson was pouring money into digital media pro-grams. However, when Sen arrived at UNM, he faced a new challenge: UNM did not have any program related to the creation of video games.

In order to achieve his goal, Sen co-founded the UNM Advanced Graphic Lab, AGL, where he also created the di-vision of video games in 2007.

“This is something that I was partic-ularly passionate about because UNM didn’t have either a program or such a big ranking in graphics when I came in,” he said.

Sen, who created his first vid-eo game at the age of 9, is also an ex-pert in computer graphics research. Last year, he was the first professor at UNM to publish a research paper in SIGGRAPH, the largest conference on computer graphics in the world.

“SIGGRAPH is like the world cup, where every team wants to make it to the final,” he said. “This is the most competitive (computer graphics) con-ference and the top thing we can do is present papers there.”

Despite his current success on the video game program for undergradu-ates and his important research pub-lication, Sen wants AGL to keep grow-ing so UNM can stand in the world of computer graphics research.

“This is a very powerful program because it has a lot of potential to ap-peal to mass audiences,” he said. “Moreover, developing video games accomplishes academic goals because you are educating developers and pro-grammers for the current entertain-ment industry.”

Courtesy PhotoUNM professor Pradeep Sen (right) discusses the impact of Sen’s video games in the Advanced Graphics Lab with students. UNM recently ranked as one of the top 10 schools in the nation for video game design.

“PATS operates its parking and al-ternative transportation services, as well as the University shuttle service on permit sales, collection of cita-tions and special event shuttle ser-vice revenues.”

PATS will likely receive a one-time allocation of $50,000 from student fees to fund the UNM Bike Share program next year after the budget is finalized in April, but this funding does not go toward parking, and is not recurring.

Because of the high demand for parking spots on campus, the aver-age UNM parking pass runs about $300 per year. For many students, this cost—when placed on top of tu-ition and fees—is so high they look for other ways to get to campus.

UNM student Adrianna Trujillo, who commutes to school but refused to buy a parking pass, said the parking passes are too expensive. She said she parks on Dartmouth Drive, Gold Avenue and Yale Boulevard—

all residential streets near the University—and has never been ticketed when parking off campus.

“I park wherever I can off of the main roads around campus. There is no bus that can pick me up from where I live, so I have no other choice,” Trujillo said.

Trujillo said the walk to cam-pus from her car is only 10 minutes, about half the average time of 20 minutes between the shuttles that service the paid parking lots.

UNM student Sheryl Fuehrer, who parks in T lot, said parking adds to her daily stress.

“It is frustrating to pay $200 for a lot that is not even on campus be-cause I live off campus and there-fore use my car as a locker of sorts,” Fuehrer said. “It takes 30 minutes to walk to the shuttle, wait for the shuttle, go to my car, wait for the shuttle to get back and then get back to campus.”

According to PATS web page,

shuttles run every 20 minutes, but for some students this is not conve-nient enough.

“If you miss (the bus), you either walk or wait 15 minutes for the bus to return,” Fuehrer said.

Director of UNM parking Bob Nelson said the goal of PATS isn’t to make parking expensive, but to pro-mote the use of public transportation and maintain order on campus.

“What we want is orderliness. We want to inform and educate before imposing penalties,” Nelson said.

Nelson said PATS is working to create other options to help stu-dents commute to school cheaply and quickly. PATS, in conjunction with the City of Albuquerque, pro-vides city bus passes to students free of charge.

“In sum, the cost to park de-pends on the type of service you are using and how you are using it,” Gilliam said.

upgrades and renovation costs.”Former UNM student Eleanor

Roth, who graduated last spring, said the tables in the laboratory rooms are cramped, much of the equip-ment is outdated and drainage sys-tems for the sinks are inadequate.

“It was difficult to do some of the labs there, it’s not like it was impossible, we got done what needed to be done, but I remem-ber the building flooding when we were using water to cool an experiment, and equipment like spectrometers and hot pads were pretty outdated,” she said.

Bear said he hopes the buildings will be updated to the quality of the new Science and Math Learn-ing Center, but that the equipment needed in Clark Hall, which hosts research and graduate level classes, would require a higher level of so-

phistication than the SMLC, which is used primarily for lower-level undergraduate courses.

Bear said renovations will pro-vide advanced students with the fa-cilities necessary to continue with careers in rapidly changing chem-istry fields including renewable en-ergy and synthesis of new materials.

“What we want to be able to do is to provide a much stronger set of resources in energy research and biomedical research that can pre-pare students for jobs in both the public and private sector,” he said. “We need to be to train students in fields important for the future.”

Bear said the department hopes to gain more faculty from energy and biomedical research, one of the reasons for renovating the building. He said modernizing of the chemis-try department will attract new fac-

ulty members, who will have input in the renovation process.

“The amount of money from the General Obligation Bond spent on new equipment will de-pend to some extent on the needs of the new faculty that are recruit-ed to occupy each of the new labo-ratories,” Bear said.

He said the chemistry depart-ment houses 20 different sub-departments and is important to many areas of science.

Bear said if approved, the mon-ey for the renovations will come in during the summer of 2013, and, allowing a year for planning, the construction should break ground 2014.

“The challenge is going to be to carry out our teaching and re-search tasks during the renova-tion,” Bear said.

Editor,

When the no-smoking policy first came out at UNM, I eagerly approached smok-ers and politely asked them to go to a des-ignated area, and I urged them to give up smoking.

I did so out of concern for the health of young people whom I like and whose fu-ture I very much support as a teacher. After all, my parents both died from health problems related to smoking. I was at one time myself a smoker who quit.

I have survived cancer, and I have been a hospice volunteer who witnessed, time after time, the suffering and death produced by smoking-related illness. The response was invariably the same from the students I so naively approached— a snarling retort, “F*ck you, assh*le, mind your own G*ddamn business.” Many of these smokers then proceeded to blow smoke in my face, and one even spat on me.

After a few years of persisting despite the abuse, I just gave up. Now I no longer say anything to the growing number of students who have made up their minds that rules are for other people and that they can smoke anywhere they please.

Here’s my point—we have a growing number of students on campus who defy the no-smoking policy and who argue that, because the University doesn’t enforce the policy, they have a right to do what they want.

On the other hand, they argue, if the Uni-versity were to take stringent measures to curtail tobacco use on campus, then that would oppress them. In exasperation, some Lobo letter writers have said that the Uni-versity just shouldn’t make any policy or rule it can’t enforce.

This attitude that I have described extends to many other areas of academic life at UNM—plagiarism, class attendance, assignment deadlines—a growing number of students have decided the rules are for other people and not for them, and they will do what they want and will harass anyone who challeng-es their sense of privilege and entitlement. This sense of overweening self-focus holds sway in the world beyond the University campus as well, and it threatens our future as a democracy.

It is the consent of the governed to abide by laws, rules and policy that is at the heart of democratic principles.

When we lose our sense of mutual care for the common good, when we just say, F*ck you, assh*le, I’ll do what I want. I dare you to make me,” then we invite tyranny, because somebody will come along who will do just that and who will use force in the name of maintaining order to make us obey.

Editor,

In combat overseas, I witnessed young men and women dying in front of me for the ideals they believed in. In the classroom here at home, I have faced the challenges of both defining my military experience and seeking an education based on learning from people with different backgrounds.

At the University of New Mexico, I believe we have an opportunity as leaders to learn from our unique experiences, clarify the ideals that we in-tend to embody and improve as an institution of higher education.

I have been diagnosed with PTSD (Post-Trau-matic Stress Disorder) and TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), the signature injuries of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. But that does not mean that I or any other military veteran are disabled from liv-ing our lives, excelling in our pursuit of education or building relationships founded on character.

In fact, our returning veterans are normal for any human being that has endured a traumatic event and lived through a period of time marked by mental or physical sacrifice.

Our news headlines continue to capture the worst in humanity, horrific events and tragic sto-ries all over the world. But that does not mean that we should adopt negative stereotypes and expect the worst behavior from a group of people that may be different from us, such as our mili-tary veterans.

Veterans are just like any other demograph-ic group that faces human challenges (such as drugs, alcohol, violence and crime) but they are unique in their training, diversity, team-building experience and resiliency.

As a student veteran at UNM, I have learned that injustice against any group must be rec-ognized, lessons of the past must be remem-bered and we must seek reconciliation instead of conflict.

Now as we welcome our new UNM president, Dr. Robert G. Frank, we as a community have an opportunity to revisit our educational mission and clarify the ideals that we intend to embody every day.

We can continue to learn a great deal from the experiences of different people, and not simply rely on misguided interpretations, limited stereo-types and failed ideologies of the past.

If we truly believe in the ideals of education, in freedom and in justice, (the same ideals many people before us have sacrificed for) then we must practice it every day for all people—not just for ourselves or people like us.

The House budget proposal for the upcom-ing fiscal year, recently unveiled by U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), would cut programs that are es-sential to the country’s most vulnerable citizens, as well as the middle class.

The proposal would also lower taxes for the rich and big corporations, whose tax rates are at their lowest since the Great Depression. While the rising federal debt has to be addressed, it’s simply wrong to do so now while the country continues to climb out of the recession.

It’s also wrong to cut taxes for the rich and big corporations making record profits while also cutting programs like Medicaid and the Chil-dren’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) that serve the most vulnerable among us.

According to the nonpartisan Congressio-nal Budget Office (CBO) Ryan’s budget proposal would remove exchange subsides and repeal the Affordable Care Act, (commonly referred to as “Obamacare”), an act that extends health insur-ance to the millions of Americans who go without it. Analysis by the CBO shows that Ryan’s budget proposal cuts spending on Medicaid, CHIP and exchange subsides in half over the next 10 years.

This severe cut would cause federal spend-ing on these programs to fall by 76 percent by 2050. Additionally, the CBO said it is difficult to forecast how states would respond to Ryan’s pro-posal for Medicaid, which would determine how many people the program would cover.

Meanwhile, the number of uninsured would be “much higher” without the subsidies in the ACA.

Medicaid covers about 336,436 New Mexi-cans, according to the October 2011 report by the state Human Services Department.

It is estimated that there are still about 50,000 New Mexico children who are eligible but are not enrolled in Medicaid. When children’s health care needs are well covered, chronic and preventable problems are reduced, which helps children achieve their full potential. Ryan’s budget proposal does not take into con-sideration the impact of CHIP cuts on these children.

That is why we need to reject it and seek a bal-anced approach that addresses American’s eco-nomic future while providing preventive services to children in ensuring their healthy future.

Accepting Ryan’s budget proposal would like-ly undo many of the advancements already made under the ACA.

Editor,

It has been said that there is always one thing we can find to unite us all, one common enemy, one thing so repugnant to all good people that they will stand side by side with those they have professed to hate to put an end to that thing.

The comment boards on the Daily Lobo website have reached a point in which the vitriol and anger and animosity are reaching critical levels. What we need now is that one thing to unite us all, and I know what that thing is: the CAPTCHA.

It does not matter what side of the debate you come down on in your opinion. Once you have committed to banging that opinion out ham-handedly on the Lobo website, we all face the scourge that is reading that stupid little CAPTCHA, deciphering what it is, then correctly recreating it in the required field.

When I see the CAPTCHA at the end of a post, I sympathize with all posters on these fo-rums and realize that no matter what side of the wall we stand on, there in the middle, wait-ing to be thrown from the top of the wall to its death, is the CAPTCHA—our common enemy.

While I may not like the opinion of some people, my heart bleeds for them when I think of them dealing with the CAPTCHA.

They spend the better part of 20-30 seconds posting their unverifiable opinions backed by no facts, or links to details, keys probably fly-ing off their keyboards in shattered bits as they pound, spittle building at the corners of their mouths before finally being expelled on their monitors as unconscious drives cause them to exhale and begin breathing again, only to be rebuffed by the CAPTCHA.

My heart bleeds for my fellow posters when I think of them bashing out their muted, ill-formed opinions for that 30-40 seconds, put-ting in the CAPTCHA and then realizing af-ter they hit enter that they had the CAPTCHA wrong.

Gone, in an instant, are these words of the wise. These thought-provoking and heart-moving words could have changed the world. Now they are lost to the vacuous space of the Internet—the digital landfill containing old Harry Potter slash fic and LOLCATS

I would hope this letter would either con-vince the Daily Lobo to remove the CAPTCHA, or at the very least bind together all posters under one common banner: eradicating the CAPTCHA.

To better understand hardships faced by people with disabilities, UNM special needs education students learn about art created under adverse condi-tions—including those of World War II Japanese internment camps.

UNM students in the Department of Educational Specialties, which houses the special education and art education programs, learn to educate children about social justice issues and artistic expression, said department Chair Ruth Luckasson.

“The Art of Gaman,” a lecture by Delphine Hirasuna, presents art made in Japanese internment camps, and Luckasson said it will help students understand the oppression and preju-dice that disabled children face.

“I had been interested in the Japanese internment camps because of the similarities,” Luckasson said. “The internment of people who are Jewish, or gypsies or homosexuals, the whole Holocaust, is similar to the long-term, massive institutionalization of people with disabilities.”

Luckasson said art is universally important to people living harsh realities.

“It’s an avenue for the human spirit to emerge, to emerge and be seen,” she said. “They (disabled

children) might not have as many opportunities, or they might not be able to do other things. If somebody is limited in verbal expression, then the art might be really important.”

Hirasuna wrote a book that discusses the role homemade folk art played in the lives of prisoners. Hirasuna studied jewelry, pins, weavings, miniature furniture and pictures on little rocks, all created by prisoners. Hirasuna said one can see the hardships in the limited materials used to create the art, but she said the art’s subject matter was surprisingly candid.

“The photographer who shot the pictures of the objects, he kept saying ‘where’s the anger?’” Hirasuna said. “I would think if I were painting in camp, I would want to paint a picture of my old home, but they kept paint-ing the barracks over and over as if they painted enough they could make sense of where they were and why they were there.”

Hirasuna’s parents and two-year-old brother were taken into intern-ment camps. Her older sister was born in a camp, and her uncle and aunt were married in a camp. Her dad was drafted for the army in a camp. Hirasu-na was born a year after the family left the camp.

After her mother died, she found a pin made in the camp and decided to

document objects in the community. The objects have been featured in the Smithsonian, and Hirasuna is one of the first people to document this as-pect of history.

Hirasuna said the most difficult part of the project was starting it.

“The worst part of it was when I first started doing the research,” she said. “My parents didn’t talk about (intern-ment camp), so I had no idea what it was like. When I started reading about it, I got more and more depressed. I got depressed and angry.”

She said she welcomes emotional reactions from others to the subject matter.

“Each time I speak, someone comes up and tells me a story and I’m just blown away by it,” she said. “I think it’s cathartic for the people telling me the story.”

and be fashionable.

Go Lobos!

Rhiannon Frazier, sophomore, theatre

“A lot of people call me a hipster, but I don’t identify with the hipster style. I like to wear what I’m comfortable in, and I dress for weather.”

Frazier said she’s an indie kid and uses the same name to de-scribe her style. She prefers grey and beige, muted palettes with a pop of color to bring her look to life. Frazier’s inspiration comes largely from the Internet where stylish people are on blogs and photos everywhere.

Favorite Trend: “The big openings in the torso area and the shoulders.” Frazier likes flyaway tops even though they may be on their way out of the fashion scene, she said. “It’s cute and it’s sexy but you’re covered enough that it’s still intriguing.”

Least Favorite Trend: “The neon. There are a lot of the things from the eighties that are coming back in a very big way and that’s one thing I don’t think should.”

Advice to a fashion defunct friend: “The best you can put on is a smile,” Frazier said and this is advice she received from a friend during her own style crisis. “If you’re wearing something you feel sexy and confident in then people perceive that. Go out and get the cutest dress you’ve ever seen your-self in and wear that for a week. When you feel good about yourself you start making better decisions.”

Bruno Vera, senior, � nance“It’s like a personal way of

dressing. I like to dress like this. Every person has his own style.”

Bruno Vera, an exchange student from Mexico, said his style is in� u-enced by his life. For instance, this out� t was largely the result of his gol� ng class. Vera strongly believes that style is individual, and what makes you feel good.

Favorite Trend: Vera said he doesn’t really have a favorite trend. “I don’t mind if we dress di� erent-ly. It all depends on the person and what they want.”

Least Favorite Trend: “I wouldn’t wear gym clothes outside of the gym. I see a lot of people in pants and sweat-shirts, and I wouldn’t do that.”

Advice to a fashion defunct friend: “I would start with shoes that he likes and see if he’s sporty or does other activities. Maybe you will like to wear this or that, it depends on who he is and what he likes.”
