people underground.”The Truman Scholarship is an

intense application process Sim-mons said, but the end result is well worth the work.

“There are not many scholar-ships available for nontraditional students,” she said. “It is not just a prestigious scholarship, but it helps a lot. They recruit students their junior year because they want to mentor them and make sure they are going on the right path to graduate school.”

Resources for scholarships are plentiful at UNM, especially through the office of National and International Scholarships and

Fellowships, Simmons said.“This office is brand new. We

just started last year and we are still tweaking the process so we can help students better apply for scholarships,” she said. “I’m just trying to increase the awareness of these scholarships because not many people know it. Anyone that is interested in scholarships with the right qualifications can contact me.”

Valente-Compton said she wants to help students educate and prepare themselves for scholarship opportunities.

“One of the things that I’m interested in doing is helping

mentor other students that are in-terested in applying for national scholarships,” she said. “Helping coach them through the applica-tion and interview process so they feel confident that they can put to-gether the best application possi-ble and come across well in their interview.”

State pride is a major source of motivation, Valente-Compton said, and whatever career path she ends up taking will serve New Mexico.

“Mostly I want to be an advo-cate for the people of New Mexico,” she said. “I love my state. It’s done so much for me … and I hope to do for it what it has done for me.”

“I would like to push for giving the SBA two ex-official seats at the table, meaning they can at-tend and speak, but they can-not vote. I’m under the assump-tion their secession’s going to go through,” he said.

Hernandez offered another rea-son he will make a good council chair in his second term: his polit-ical connections.

“There’s something else I bring to GPSA. Until I got involved no (elected state officials) came to GPSA, and as soon as I got in-

volved, I brought friends that are state representatives (and) state councilors,” he said. “I feel that’s important because UNM issues aren’t just UNM issues. They’re statewide issues. A lot of decisions made outside UNM affect UNM.”

Hernandez said he would work to include more departments in GPSA decisions.

“Now that I’ve learned the ropes, I’m going to spend more time outreaching to get more graduate student associations involved,” he said. “I feel con-

fident we have reasonable representation. It’s just that every department isn’t represented.”

McRobert said she’s worked with various nonprofit groups in Albuquerque, such as Rape Crisis Center of Central New Mexico and Healthcare for the Homeless, and that experience will be valuable if she is elected GPSA council chair.

“I’m trained and skilled in cri-sis resolution,” she said. “There’s been a lot going on in GPSA last semester, so I think my skills as being a level-headed and neutral

Editor,This year, a group of students banded to-

gether from multiple student organizations and across both student governments to help preserve the student’s right to decide where their fee dollars go. One of the strongest voices for students was current ASUNM Lobby Chair and Presidential Candidate, David Conway. He worked long hours and late nights with students to preserve the integrity of student government. For this alone, he deserves com-mendation, but it is one good deed among many.

Conway has proven himself to be a thoughtful and deliberate leader — whether it is taking students to Santa Fe to lobby against the tuition credits or his work on sustainabil-ity here on campus. He has not only put stu-dents first but made sure that they are first in the minds of the administration and legisla-tors. He brings this experience to ASUNM to help strengthen the organization as a voice for students. He organized his slate, Wolfpack, to continue his work and to help accomplish his vision for what ASUNM can be.

Ronald Reagan once said, “You can ac-complish much if you don’t care who gets credit.” This has been a maxim for Conway. He had done an incredible amount for students in three years working for ASUNM. And time and again, he has stepped back after victory to work on the next project. I am writing this let-ter, because, this time, I want students to know how much Conway has done. There are two remarkable candidates running for ASUNM this year, but I believe that Conway’s experi-ence and service distinguishes him this elec-tion cycle.

Editor,There seems to be a growing number of

people in this country who are using more and more violent language based on the belief that doing so will manifest positive, possibly even compassionate, results. My advice to them is to stop what they are doing right now, take a few deep breaths and become aware that vi-olent language only begets more violent lan-guage. Continuing escalation of violent lan-guage always leads to violence.

I hope that those who are using violent lan-guage do not want to see us killing each other because of differences in what we perceive is best for our country. May it be so!

Robert GardinerDaily Lobo reader

Editor,I’m a member of UNM’s chapter of Stu-

dents for Sensible Drug Policy, and as such, it’s one of my primary objectives to adequate-ly inform students and faculty about the is-sues of drugs, the laws surrounding them and their impact on our world.

It makes sense that New Mexico has a drug problem. Our high poverty levels, proximity to Mexico and significant minority populations are important factors that make New Mexico particularly susceptible to the negative effects of the illegal drug trade.

But it’s comforting to know that New Mex-ico hasn’t been passive about taking care of the problem. In fact, our state is a national beacon for drug reform.

New Mexico was the first state to pass a 911

Good Samaritan Law. In response to one of the highest rates of death by drug overdose in the country, legislators passed this essential law that gives a person immunity from drug possession charges when calling 911 for med-ical assistance. This redirects government pri-ority from law enforcement to saving lives. (Disclaimer: This law does not apply on cam-pus due to UNM’s zero-tolerance policy.)

The New Mexico Department of Health’s Harm Reduction Program is one of the most comprehensive and effective initiatives for injection-drug users in America. The program provides for syringe exchange to reduce the spread of hepatitis and HIV, educates drug users about potential risks and consequences of their actions and acts as a conduit for treat-ment and prevention services.

The state legislature is currently work-ing to pass two bills that will further enable successful drug reform: “ban the box” legis-lation, which will remove the box on public job applications that asks if a person has a

criminal conviction, and the Substance Abuse and Crime Prevention Act, which will allow for drug addicts to receive treatment instead of being incarcerated.

New Mexico’s medical cannabis program model is one of the most imitated in current drug reform legislation in other states and is likely to set the standard for government-li-censed dispensaries at a national level.

In addition, the state commissioned an in-depth study and analysis of the effects of drugs in New Mexico. This study will report its findings at the end of the year and will offer further suggestions for future reform.

New Mexico is on the right path toward sensible drug policy, but it’s not there yet. Further legislation will require a solid foun-dation of supporters with a variety of skills. Why not make that foundation the University of New Mexico?

Geoff St. JohnDaily Lobo reader

Editor,On April 8, the Daily Lobo ran the arti-

cle “ASUNM candidates stress sustainabil-ity, safety” and we felt it was our duty as the current ASUNM Chair and Vice Chair for the Outreach and Appointment Committee to in-form the student body of the things ASUNM has been working on for the past academic year.

The ASUNM Senate has made great prog-ress in building a coalition between the Office of Sustainability, UNM Recycling and the Sus-tainability Studies Program. In the fall semes-ter, we worked with UNM Athletics to imple-ment the “Lobos Can Recycle” initiative. This initiative involved ASUNM senators collect-ing aluminum and plastic at UNM football tailgates. Additionally, UNM Recycling placed recycling bins sporadically around tailgates beforehand.

The Senate launched an initiative titled,

“Adopt-A-Bin” in collaboration with UNM Re-cycling to rent out the metal recycling bins currently on UNM campus and allow student organizations to rent them on a semester ba-sis. This will advertise organizations and aid the UNM sustainability efforts. Revenue from this program will go toward a new green ac-count to aid in funding sustainable initiatives throughout the campus.

On March 1, ASUNM held a town hall meeting addressing the Master Plan. We wanted to give students an opportunity to learn about UNM’s 10-year plan and provide the developers with the student perspective.

ASUNM also has an ASUNM Facebook group that is constantly updated with up-coming events, discussions and important announcements. In an effort to be more vis-ible on campus, the Senate decided to do out-of-office hours last week at various UNM lo-cations, such as the Ethnic Center foyer, the Mother Earth Fountain in the Yale Mall area and outside Zimmerman Library on Smith Plaza.

Finally, in an attempt to increase transpar-ency, ASUNM has revamped its Web site to be

user-friendly and responsive to the needs of its constituents. Visit asunm.unm.edu to keep yourself updated and learn more about us and what we are working on.

On April 29, ASUNM will be hosting a Take Back the Night event co-sponsored by the Women’s Resource Center. The event will be a candlelight march beginning at Johnson Field and ending at the Duck Pond from 8 p.m - 9:30 p.m. We will be hosting guest speakers and have fun physical activities to raise awareness of campus safety and sexual assault.

To further our efforts, ASUNM is working to reach out to students and improve com-munication. Come by La Posada on April 28 for a Lobo Ice Cream Social from 4 p.m - 5:30 p.m. Tell ASUNM your student concerns over some ice cream and mingle with your fellow classmates.

by Chris QuintanaDaily Lobo

Sophomore Alexis Pavlantos has a penchant for pendants and other forms of jewelry. She said her work tends to appeal to old-er women, but it’s not exclusively geared toward an older crowd. She considers it a compliment because older women have seen more exot-ic jewelry than she has in her life-time. Pavlantos said she’s looking forward to heading to San Francis-co next year, where she expects her art to flourish.

Daily Lobo: In the loosest sense of the word, what do you do?

Alexis Pavlantos: Mostly every-thing I do is used from found ob-jects or recycled materials.

DL: Why’s that? Is it a desire to be eco-friendly, or something more abstract?

AP: That, which is kind of iron-ic because I am working with re-ally toxic chemicals, but they are permanent toxic chemicals. Ev-erything I make is very solid. It’s not just something that you can just throw away, but it’s somewhat recyclable.

DL: So from what you have shown me, these pieces of jewel-ry look a lot like plants. Is that the case?

AP: This is a weed. It’s not sup-posed to be very beautiful.

DL: How do you define a weed, though?

AP: I know! Exactly. Everywhere I went trying to figure out what the heck this plant was everyone was

telling me these different things. I thought it was very beautiful, al-though everyone else thought it was a weed.

DL: So what goes into making jewelry out of a plant, then?

AP: I did a resin varnish on them (the pods of the plant). This is gold mesh. I wanted to make it more tangible. The pods are very flimsy, so they kind of are destruc-tible. The rest is a super solid, but has movement in it.

DL: So how do you come into doing something like this?

AP: I have sculpted since I was 5. I wanted to make my sculptures more tangible. The clay I used was not very hard or firm, or, if you dropped it, it would break. So I wanted a way to preserve them. Actually, the first piece I ever did was a sculpture. Most of my piec-es incorporate sculpting little inti-mate sculpture scenes.

DL: So we have only talked awhile, but already preserving your art work has come up twice. Could you explain that to me?

AP: Yeah, I definitely want a way to preserve it. That’s kind of a crazy concept to me that some-thing I created will still have its own world (when I die). A piece of me will still live on. That’s also why I kind of starting doing big-ger sculptures because they make a statement more. I just have this mind that — everything that I look at can become something. I don’t look at something and see what it is.

DL: Could you give me an example?

AP: Yeah, that weed. I didn’t look at it and think, “Oh that’s a cool weed.” I looked at it and was like, “Dude, I can make something out of that.” Some of my other recy-cled stuff is a lot of records, or my first piece was my grandpa’s 1910 Kodak camera. So, yeah, I look at something for what it could be not for what it is.

DL: Are those actual bits of a grasshopper in that piece in the pendant of the necklace?

AP: Yeah, I made him into what I thought he would look like only finding his legs and wings.

DL: That’s so fancy. How did you come up with that?

AP: It’s horribly strange find-ing bugs because I feel so bad. I like finding them because I feel they wouldn’t have left their parts — the parts wouldn’t have come across my way if they didn’t want me to find them. If I died, and I was a little bug, that’d be pretty tight to be around someone’s neck or to be a part of someone even though you’re lost and parts of your body are lost around the world. At least a few are preserved within a little space.

FashionQ&A:

Emily Linley

Tami Lynn

Studio Art, JuniorDress: Anthropologie, $118

Belt: Goodwill, $2 Shoes: Aqui, $46

“Dressing is kind of making yourself into art for the day.”

Sporting a look like something out of the ’80s is exactly what Emily is shooting for. She said she appreciates the fashion and culture of the time better than today’s be-cause of its endearing quality. Accordingly, she teases her hair out, dyes it blond and occasionally styles loose sweat-ers with bright tights. She said that most of her clothing isn’t quite as expensive as her dress, but she splurges on something high class every now and then.

Photography, GraduateHat: Target, $10 Necklace: Forever 21, $5 Shirt: � rift Store, $4Jeans: Level 10, $25Flip-Flops: Old Navy, $2

“I’m willing to spend money on clothes because I like them, but I am more interested in buying lots of cheap clothes than one ridiculously expensive shirt.”

Tami said her fashion hinges on � uidity — that is being able to change her current style or look at a moment’s no-tice. Accordingly, she said that she never pre-arranges out� ts or looks, but rather cycles through her closet for a new look daily. She said this way she saves a ton on clothing. She said people looking to be stylish should avoid boring, one-color pieces of clothing in simple cuts, such as polo shirts and ev-eryone would be better o� without Ugg boots.

From day one, I started learning what it takes to run a successful business. And it's learning by doing, not by getting coffee or filing all day. I'm even taking on the same challenges as first and second year professionals. The business training I'm receiving is really amazing and a great jump-start to my career.

If you are a full-time college student w/ a valid driver's license, you can become an Intern with Enterprise. If you are ambitious, creative, personable, resourceful and hard working, you're the ideal candidate. You should also like to have fun at work and should enjoy contributing to a team environment. We offer a paid internship and other performance bonuses.

I'm even taking on the same challenges as first and second year professionals. The business training I'm receiving is really amazing and a great jump-start to my career.

If you are a full-time college student w/ a valid driver's license, you can become an Intern with Enterprise. If you are ambitious, creative, personable, resourceful and hard working, you're the ideal candidate. You should also like to have fun at work and should enjoy contributing to a team environment. We offer a paid internship and other performance bonuses.
