American Campus Communi-ties said the integration of ACC-run dorms and programs at UNM would be seamless, but one UNM hous-ing o� cial said the term “seamless transition” was used only to keep up appearances.

“� e University is working with ACC to most e� ectively make it ap-pear seamless for students, and really that’s all, an appearance,” Interim Di-rector of Student Housing Brian Ward said. “We’re trying to educate them about the di� erent processes which would take place if you either wanted to live on campus or in ACC, or if you wanted to work in ACC or on campus, because they are very separate.”

The Werner Gilchrist House at Silver and Cornell is gone. Wrecking crews arrived at one of Albuquerque’s first suburban homes Nov.17 to begin demolishing the property. The home, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has been slowly decaying since its last owner died in 1981.

said that when Casas Del Rio opens next year, levels of maintenance work-ers and custodial staff would have to be evaluated based on occupancy.

“We just don’t have the revenue, the cash that we had when all our beds were full,” Ward said.

Stoddard said she thinks ACC’s growing presence will emphasize the student focus of UNM Res Life, which she said is hard to come by with privatization.

Isaac Romero, ASUNM Housing Committee chairman, said at a Sen-ate meeting Nov. 16 that it is now clear ACC’s residence programs and UNM’s Res Life will be two separate entities. Students applying to be resident ad-visers must choose to apply either through UNM, to work in existing stu-dent dorms, or through ACC, to work

in new ACC dorms such as Lobo Vil-lage and Casas Del Rio. Students must go through separate application pro-cesses based on whether they want to work for ACC or UNM Res Life.

Romero also said that Res Life em-ployees would not be able to use ACC facilities to program events, and ACC employees would likewise be unable to use Res Life facilities.

Ward compared the ACC facilities to an independent, off-campus apart-ment complex built on campus.

“There’s no shared paperwork, contract or leasing. We have all differ-ent arrangements and agreements,” he said.

He said the separation is a con-tractual issue because the University chose not to spend its own money on the new dorms, instead hiring ACC to

fund and run the buildings.Stoddard said compensation will

be different between ACC and UNM, another reason for the break.

“The RAs will be compensated differently with UNM Residence Life and Student Housing, as they would with (ACC),” she said. “Based upon compensation, you can’t just put ev-erybody into a candidate pool and de-cide where they’re going to live. That’s a very crucial part of the puzzle.”

Stoddard said that Res Life com-pensation includes a free room, $975 toward an on-campus meal plan, and $2,700 for the academic year, which is about a $300 paycheck per month. ACC representatives refused to com-ment and did not respond to requests for comment on wages and compen-sation for their student RAs.

ACC Dispute from page 1

Discrimination from page 1

The Albuquerque chapter of the NAACP, in conjunction with the Minister’s Fellowship of Albuquer-que and Vicinity, filed a complaint Nov. 10 with the Justice Department and the federal Department of Edu-cation which claims UNM is biased against African Americans.

The complaint says African Amer-icans have been excluded from up-per administration positions, that African-American women have not been placed in positions of authority within UNM and that African-Amer-ican faculty face salary disparities. The complaint specifically targeted UNMH, where Bishop David C. Coo-per, who helped file the complaint, said African-American doctors, teachers and nurses were forced to work in a hostile environment.

In a statement issued jointly by UNM President David Schmidly and Health Sciences Center Chan-cellor Paul Roth on Tuesday, the administration denied the accusa-tions of discrimination.

“We do not discriminate against African Americans,” it said. “We do not discriminate against any indi-vidual or group based on race, reli-gion, sexual orientation, age, gender or ability.”

Schmidly has refused to com-ment on the complaint since he re-leased statement.

Faculty Senate President Tim Ross said he isn’t aware of any discrimination.

“In my direct observations and in anything reported to me as the Faculty Senate President, I had not heard anything about unfair treat-ment until I read the news reports on this matter over a week ago,” he said. “In my 25 years at UNM, I have not seen any unfair or mis-directed behaviors toward African Americans.”

Ross said attracting minority pro-fessors and administrators at UNM is a difficult task.

“It is still not easy to get faculty from various underrepresented

groups to come to UNM. … not many individuals from these groups stay in school long enough to earn the terminal degree in their fields, usually a PhD,” he said. “Second, when we do identify faculty of color or female faculty in fields like engineering or the hard sciences, where the numbers are really scant, we have to compete on a national level to get them to come to UNM. We struggle to match the salaries or the ‘start-up packages’ that other more affluent schools can provide.”

ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal said she is not sure if the claims are true, but said promoting and retaining individuals from multiple cultural backgrounds is vital to education at UNM.

“Having a diverse staff is impor-tant for a number of reasons: It’s im-portant for students, it’s important for staff and it’s important for the over-arching University environ-ment,” she said.

I think almost all the TAs I know get the same expression when a student asks why they can’t use a random website as a source for a paper. It’s somewhere between a hor-rified cringe and frustration. I am not con-vinced that students know why asking if they can use a general website causes such a strong reaction, even when I explain the peer review process and talk about having a paper anonymously reviewed by a panel of experts. I’ve even taken to referring to it in class as training a homemade bullshit detector, but from the sometimes very con-fused expressions and students who persist in citing WebMD or Google answers, I get the feeling that their confusion persists.

The short answer to why you can’t use just anything as a source is accuracy: In or-der to be considered a useful source for re-search at the formal level, the source has to be as accurate as possible. There are a few reasons why, in general, peer reviewed sources are more accurate than random sites off the Internet. The first of these has to do with the review process. When some-one wants to publish a paper on some-thing they’ve researched, they have to go through a series of steps to ensure that it can be published.

First, if they are a graduate student or not a full professor, they very likely have a committee to whom they are responsible for the data and the paper. That commit-tee has to approve of the paper, topic, data collection methods and data in order for the paper to advance to the stage where it is able to be submitted. Full professors are responsible to their funding committees; research is expensive, and not something most can afford out of pocket.

Once the person who wants to publish that paper has the approval to publish,

and remember, this is after approval from the Institutional Research Board (IRB) at UNM and at whatever institution is fund-ing the research, they have to find a pub-lication which has the correct focus and in which they feel they are prestigious enough to publish. The more prestigious the mag-azine, the fewer papers the magazine will publish. Many publications are extraordi-narily specialized and require the papers submitted to be equally specialized. Many times, the person who wants to publish also has to pay for the ability to be considered for publication, as well, so people who want to publish do not manage to publish often.

At the point where the research paper can be submitted, the publication will take a copy, remove the submitter’s name and send copies to at least three reviewers who are specialists with years of experience and professional degrees. These three review-ers are paid a stipend to render that paper down as far as they can; the default is rejec-tion, though some places are nice enough to invite you to resend, if you make all of the lists of corrections they stipulate. For prestigious publications, all three review-ers have to agree. Some publications will allow two out of three. At any time in this process, that paper will have been looked over by at least six people, all of whom are

strongly motivated by both pay and by the desire to keep their field as accurate as possible, to find inaccuracies, bad writing, bad ideas or anything they think is unwor-thy of the field.

At this point, at least one student will point out that he or she has heard of a time when science (the nebulous science) has changed its mind, or a scientist has been wrong. It’s true; papers can get through this process and still manage to be wrong, be-cause everyone in the field is wrong or be-cause the reviewers are wrong in the same way the paper is wrong.

However, the process favors accuracy. It favors accuracy both because of the multiple layers of editors and gatekeepers who are mo-tivated to get rid of inaccuracies, and because it is modeled after the scientific method.

I always do a lecture about the scientific method when I lecture about source accu-racy. I can boil it down to the idea, with the scientific method, that everything bears re-testing. Scientific principles, to be considered accurate, have to be tested and retested. As long as the conditions are the same, the sci-entific principle has to keep working.

If it doesn’t work, it must be taken apart to find out why, and something must be learned from the process. Nothing is safe from being retested, and though scientists may be the only people capable of retesting it, they will. Often, the facilities needed to retest an idea are expensive enough to prevent the general public from being able to retest it themselves. That is, in fact, how many things in science are taught. Students are made to reproduce the effect for themselves.

Contrast this, and I say this as someone who is fond of Wikipedia, with the instant publication of one’s thoughts on Facebook, a blog or the comments on a news story. That is why your teacher keeps asking you to use peer-reviewed sources.

I wince because I care.

Peer review process improves accuracy

Editor,

I am writing to request a small amend-ment to the online article, “Childlessness helps marriage last,” by Jason Darensburg. I am the communications manager for the study— Understanding Society— quoted in the article, and I notice that the article says that “the survey tracked 40,000 house-holds over two decades.” This is not correct. The study tracks 40,000 and was launched in 2008. A smaller, longitu-dinal study, also known as the British Household Panel Study, which is incor-porated into Understanding Society, has been going for more than two decades. We appreciate your organization using the Understanding Society findings in the arti-cle, which I enjoyed.

Editor,

Just a few decades ago, the media in this country seemed to be trying to keep us informed of all sides on all the is-sues, so that we could make our own in-formed decisions. Today, the media in this country seem to be trying to keep us only informed of what the top 1 percent want us to think is accurate, so that we will make the decisions they want us to.

A white-haired woman sits on the bus surrounded by plastic gro-cery bags as the robotic female voice says, “Stop requested.” Her arm in a splint, she realizes her cigarette is still lit from outside and presses the charred, glowing end onto her out-stretched tongue in order to put it out. Who knows why she opted for this method, but for Albuquerque bus drivers, scenes like these are just part of the everyday grind.

Bus driver Ted Silvers has driven Route 66 for two and half years, and he said drunks are the most common problem he encounters. If they cause a disturbance, he said, it’s his job to kick them off.

“I have had some heated argu-ments with people who don’t want to get off; they always have some nice parting words,” he said. “I don’t think I want to repeat them, but I al-ways say, ‘Have a nice day.’”

Silvers said he tries to avoid kick-ing people off the bus by not letting them on in the first place.

“I try to nip it in the bud right away,” he said. “If I’m pulling up to a stop and the people getting up from the bench are stumbling around, I know eventually that’s going to be a problem for me, so I won’t let them on. Or if they come in and can’t even get their money in the slot because they’re so drunk, then they’re not go-ing to ride my bus.”

Jeremy Perea, who has been driv-ing the bus for about one year, said he was threatened at gunpoint once when he was trying to break up a fight in the back of the bus.

“He pulled the gun on me and the guy who was in the fight, and I was like, ‘Hey, man, why can’t we just be friends,’” Perea said. “The other guy got off, and he just sat down and said he was ready to go. I said ‘I’ll take you

wherever you need to go, you know.’ You’re not allowed to carry guns on the bus, but I can’t search people.”

Another time, Perea said a drunk man tried to board the bus, but Perea decided the man was too drunk to ride. The man became so angry that he pulled out a knife.

“He got in my face, so I took off my seat belt, popped the brig, and pushed him out the door. I had se-curity on the bus, so I tangled him up. The security guard was hitting him with the baton, and boom, a cop pulled up. It was pretty sweet.”

Both of those incidents happened during late-night hours on the 66, but Perea said his job isn’t just to kick people off of the bus. He has EMT certification from UNM, so he can help people with medical needs. One night, Perea said he saved a man’s life.

“This man had four seizures in a row on the bus. He was peeing, throwing up all over the place,” he said. “I picked him up and put him on the floor. When they go into a sei-zure, you don’t want them to hurt themselves, so I just tried to hold his head up so he wouldn’t swallow his tongue. I did my best and called 911.”

While most drivers haven’t wit-nessed such traumatic events, they have their fair share of stories.

Bus driver Diane Atacus, a former school bus driver and grant writ-er, said not only has she seen peo-ple using drugs on the bus, but she has seen people having sex as well. She said they made no effort to hide themselves or do it discreetly.

“A lot of people are surprisingly open,” she said.

She said driving the 66 is more difficult than driving a school bus, but she still enjoys it.

“With kids, you can tell them to sit down and behave, but you can’t tell adults anything,” Atacus said.

The 48th annual ASUNM Arts and Crafts Fair weaves its way into the SUB once again, with prod-ucts ranging from native honey to chain mail.

Among the established artists there, some of the vendors are students. Chain mail artist and sophomore public relations student Genevieve Sparks is selling chain mail belts, bracelets and earrings, but also has a chain mail skirt and bra on display to pique interest in the art. She said the bra idea originated when a man who wore a full chain mail suit to class made her one, and she just continued to wear it.

“It doesn’t pinch, it’s really cold, and it’s supporting,” she said. “And it’s more like I had had problems with self-image and such. The chain mail bra made me feel so much better in my own skin. It really helped me.”

She said she sometimes uses the bra as advertising for herself.

“I usually wear this (chain mail bra) at craft shows because peo-ple look at it and go ‘What is she wearing?’ and then they come over to my booth.”

Sparks said the craft fair isn’t as lucrative as other events she attends, but she still really enjoys it, especial-ly because she isn’t looking to make a career out of the chain mail.

“I think it’s harder being on a campus because all the college stu-dents are poor,” she said. “It’s defi-nitely for fun. I make enough money to justify me continuing this hobby.”

Jeffrey Nibert, a senior photog-raphy major, said pottery is a more permanent mode of expression than photography.

“A glitch on your computer, you’re down thousands of photos,” he said. “Thousands of years — that pot will be there. It’s really my way of leaving my mark on time.”

Nibert said he loves working with clay, and all of the pieces he makes are equally challenging.

“You get dirty. I mean, who doesn’t love getting dirty?” he said. “Bigger pieces are harder to make because it’s just more force you have to work with, but small, finicky things can be really meticulous to handle.”

Graham Chouteau-Lathrop, a senior majoring in chemistry, par-ticipated in a collective booth sell-ing everything from feathered hair adornments to tooth diamonds, a

jewel that can be fastened to your tooth with dental glue. He was sell-ing informal art pieces, as well as small cacti. He said he saw a need for plants.

“It’s come to my attention that throughout the years, people tend to sell really nice pots that have holes in the bottom for plants, but the plants are a little lacking,” he said.

He said the first cactus he bought was local, and others spawned from that.

“The mother cactus came from a cactus shop that has since closed,” he said. “It was next to the Kelly’s brew patio.”

Everything in the fair must be handmade, and it features more than 75 artisan booths.

Some of Albuquerque’s danc-ers are break dancing while break-ing down stereotypes.

Sisterz of the Underground is an all-female break dancing and hip-hop group founded in San Francisco 10 years ago. The Al-buquerque chapter, founded by Cassaundra “Sassy” Bustamante, started just last May.

Group member and CNM student Jordyn Gutierrez said the group tries to reach out to younger women through its performances, one of which is a calendar release party at Warehouse 508 this Saturday.

Gutierrez said pop culture can have a negative effect on kids, and hip-hop could help if it didn’t have such a bad reputation in the media.

“(A) perfect example is Brit-ney Spears,” Gutierrez said. “If we could show little girls they can be cool by breaking instead of shaking their booties, I would feel accomplished. What I hope audience members gain is that hip-hop isn’t a bad thing. It’s ac-tually a good thing, and we come together as a unit without vio-lence, to express ourselves posi-tively and creatively.”

Group member Helin “La Mooxie” Montgomery said the group is hip-hop focused, but dab-bles in a variety of artistic media.

“It’s not just spray painting. It’s expressing yourself in a hip-hop kind of way,” she said. “Even outside of hip-hop. We have a fire dancer in our group. We have graf-fiti artists. We have DJs, MCs and photographers. The only require-ment is that you have to be female.”

Montgomery said many of the dancers grew up break-dance bat-tling each other in high school, so an intense animosity developed, es-pecially between female dancers.

“No one was ever like, ‘Let’s get together and go out of town and battle these cats,’” she said. “Now, finally, everybody’s like, ‘Okay we’re over a lot of this stuff.’ There’s hardly any girls anyway, so why are we hating each other?”

SOTU unites the community’s break dancers, while giving back as well. All the proceeds from the group’s upcoming shows will be donated to Warehouse 508 and Young Women United, a local community for women of color. Most of the dancers were part of the Albuquerque hip-hop scene before gravitating to the group. Group member Natane “Soula” Lim said she took up the dance style because of the freedom it allows.

“I hated jazz. I tried tap. I tried ballet. My mom put me in gym-nastics, and I hated all of them,” Lim said. “They were too girly, or

they were like, ‘Do this. You have to practice the same move every single day,’ and breaking was free. It was open. You could be who you wanted to be in the dance. You didn’t have to look like somebody else. You could be yourself.”

Lim, a Chicago-native and a preschool teacher, said she had seen break dancers in Chicago but wasn’t inspired to start until she saw a battle at the Sunshine Theater when she was visiting Al-buquerque for the Gathering of Nations Powwow.

“I came back, and my brother and I just set up our garage with a slab of linoleum that was super small,” she said. “We gangster-ed it from somebody down the street, and I was like, ‘We’re just going to train together.’”

Bustamante said Albuquerque has a unique but strong hip-hop community.

“People from bigger cities are just like robots,” she said. “They see people in videos on Youtube, and they’re just trying to mimic them. They’re wearing the same clothes. Around here, we all have our own style. We use a lot of na-tive steps that they use in Native (American) dancing. The whole style is really Native-influenced.”

Montgomery said the danc-ers present themselves as role models.

“That’s reflected in the calen-dar pictures,” she said. “Nobody is like half-naked, with body pieces popping off.”

Saturday’s event includes a dance performance, a gallery showing of Montgomery’s photog-raphy, a video presentation, ven-dors and the release of the group’s new calendar, which features each group member somewhere on the UNM campus and all the pro-ceeds will benefit Warehouse 508 and Young Women United.

Bustamante said anyone is wel-come to check out the group, even if they have no previous experi-ence. They have an open dance session at Warehouse 508 every Thursday from 6-8:30 p.m.
