Most of UNM’s peer institutions don’t consider the University their equal, and soon UNM might give in to peer pressure.

UNM’s peer institutions haven’t changed since at least the 1990s, and of UNM’s 16 peer institutions, only two schools, University of Utah and University of Washington, count UNM among their peer institutions. � e University of Washington had UNM on only one of three lists it uses for self-evaluation, according the University of Washington website.

In 2008, Mark Chisholm, direc-tor of UNM’s O� ce of Institutional Research, said then-provost Viola Florez asked UNM to re-evaluate its peers.

Chisholm said he compared stu-dent body characteristics, such as ethnic pro� le and number of com-muter students, but the project lost steam when Florez left the Univer-sity, and it’s been on the backburner since.

Gov. Susana Martinez signed an expansion of Katie’s Law into legis-lation Wednesday at a Rotary Club meeting in Carlsbad.

� e law requires DNA samples be taken for felony arrests.

“For � ve years, we have seen that Katie’s Law has achieved real re-sults,” Martinez said in a statement. “Crimes solved, crimes prevented and lives saved. Now, we are able to do even more. Requiring a DNA sample from anyone arrested for a felony crime will make this impor-tant law even more e� ective.”

As the district attorney in Doña Ana County, Martinez lobbied for the passage of the original Katie’s Law. � e original law required a DNA sample in the case of violent felonies, such as rape and murder.

With the expansion, DNA sam-ples will be processed in the case of a felony warrant, a probable cause hearing ordered from a magistrate court judge or when the suspect doesn’t show up for a bail or bond hearing.

State Rep. Al Park (D-Albuquer-que) said he worked with Sen. Ver-non Asbill (R-Carlsbad) the past year on the expansion. Sen. Mary Kay Pa-pen (D-Las Cruces) and Asbill spon-

sored the bill, and the House and the Senate voted to amend Katie’s Law with bi-partisan support.

“With the net being broader, we’re going to capture people who have committed crimes in the past,” Park said.

Katie’s Law was passed in 2006, as a result of the brutal rape and murder of Katie Sepich in 2004. Sepich’s boyfriend was exonerated because she had DNA beneath her � ngernails that did not match her boyfriend’s. Because of DNA evi-dence, Gabriel Avila was convicted of the murder shortly after being ar-rested for burglary.

Park said comprehensive DNA testing is intended to convict a high-er percentage of criminals. He said the expansion will exonerate the in-nocent, capture the guilty and pro-tect victims.

“We’re going to make sure that people are fully held accountable, and they’re not going to be out there committing crimes, meaning that the public’s going to be protected,” Park said.

Since 2006, when the original Ka-tie’s Law was passed, 23 other states have passed similar laws. � e ex-pansion of this bill makes New Mex-ico criminal DNA databases one of the most rigorous in the country, Park said.

New regent Bradley Hosmer said UNM can lead the country in chang-ing the education system.

Hosmer was the superintendent of the Air Force Academy and the president of the National Defense University before retiring in 1994.

Unlike his colleagues, Hosmer said after retirement he worked pro-bono advising, helping and con-sulting high-tech industries in Sili-con Valley and the Department of Defense. � ere, he said long-term planning entailed asking an organi-zation where it wanted to be in

� ve or 10 years, and then shaping actions to achieve those goals. And he said the same strategy can be ap-plied to educational reform.

“I guess you could call that pro-active planning and action as op-

posed to reactive, which happens an awful lot,” he said. “So with that spirit, I’ve tried to be useful where I’ve lived and in organizations I’ve been asked to help.”

Hosmer said his experience working on boards for large, com-plex organizations taught him the importance of working together to promote the University’s goals. He said he’s focused on the budget right now.

“An individual regent has no au-thority at all,” he said. “� e regents have authority only as a group. � e kinds of things that I have in mind

of going to the state and requesting a whole bunch of new peers right now,” Chisholm said. “You really need someone at a high-executive level that thinks it’s really important.”

Chisholm said it’s hard for UNM to find comparable institutions that are similar across the board.

“It probably turns out that there isn’t a perfect group of peers that works for all purposes,” he said. “So I think (it’s OK) as long as you ex-plain why you picked the ones you picked.”

The New Mexico Higher Educa-tion Department sets the University’s peer institutions, but UNM approves the selections. Peer institutions pro-vide formulas for legislative funding and salary comparisons for faculty positions, Chisholm said. He said UNM pays its faculty about 10 per-cent less than its peer institutions.

“Our faculty salaries haven’t kept up with any peer groupings,” he said. “They tend to average at about 90 percent of the faculty salaries of the Higher Education Department’s (peer) group. When I look at the adjacent states, it’s still at about 90 percent.”

CU Boulder is one of UNM’s peer institutions, but CU’s director of In-stitutional Research and Analysis Lou McClelland said Boulder does not count UNM as one of its peer in-stitutions. She said Boulder is in the Association of American Universities (AAU), a group, Chisholm said, UNM

President David Schmidly wants the University to join.

McClelland said Boulder has been a part of AAU for quite some time.

“It’s an invitation-only group,” she said. “We exchange data through the AAU, so there is data available to those institutions that would not be available through other public resources.”

In 2008, New Mexico State Uni-versity changed some of its peer in-stitutions, said Candice Guzie, inter-im director of the Office of Institution Research and Support.

“We looked for similar qualities like sizes, ethnic breakdown and mission statement,” she said.

Chisholm said UNM’s original peer group was picked on selective criteria, such as mission statement and size. He said the Board of Re-gents wanted UNM to pick peers that are geographically close, specifically no more than four universities east of the Mississippi.

“They didn’t want any of the Cali-fornia schools because they are con-sidered very unique and probably

not comparable,” Chisholm said. “In UNM’s case, they looked at mostly land grant/flagship universities in the region, the mix of programs and relative size.”

Chisholm said that if UNM finds new peers, he wants to add more cri-teria to help determine the compa-rability of the institutions, such as number of commuter students, and graduation and retention rates.

“And income is big,” he said. “I think sometimes income (is a bigger factor) than diversity.”

If UNM changes its peers in the future, Chisholm said, it will use parts of NMSU’s process. He said UNM might add a school like the Univer-sity of Houston or Temple University as a peer.

“We would probably have a bal-ance of institutions whose students are similar to ours, and some that have a research mission similar to ours,” he said.

In the past, Chisholm said his office researched adjusting UNM’s peers, but it’s a long, involved pro-cess that needs legislative support. But he added that if UNM altered its peer groups, it would put the Uni-versity’s faculty salaries and formula funding into perspective.

“We want to update and modify the institutions,” he said. “We have to involve all the relevant parties and go to get data and analysis. There just has been so much stuff going on with the budget right now.”

Peers from page 1

Hosmer from page 1are personal to me. So far, there’s not yet been an occasion when I can work with enough of my colleagues to know that the regents as a group support some of these things. So, for me to say, ‘We’re going to do this or that’ would be speculation.”

Hosmer said New Mexico is the perfect place to effect change in the education system.

“If you look around for places in which you could begin to test out an improvement, and do so dramati-cally, it’s difficult to find a place that would be a better test bed than in the state of New Mexico,” he said. “The entire college/university struc-ture in New Mexico is important to this picture, and it’s important that they all work in consonance to a common gameplan.”

Having had little opportunity outside regents’ meetings to share his thoughts, Hosmer said he is try-ing to absorb how the University operates.

“It may be of course that there’s very effective long-term planning going on at the University right now, and I just don’t know about it,” he said. “I’m the new guy here, and I’m still learning a lot about how the University functions and where all the levers are.”

Hosmer said he wouldn’t have taken the job on unless he believed in educational reform.

“I think that education in the U.S. is in desperate straits and can be fixed,” he said. “I think New Mex-ico is an ideal place to pilot test strong improvements. I think UNM is a place to come to understand the role of higher education in that change. I think the future of UNM may be very bright, and if I didn’t think those things were all true, I wouldn’t be here.”

“Our faculty salaries haven’t kept up with any peer groupings.”

Strong fire lines were helping fire-fighters keep a wildfire contained in southern New Mexico despite winds gusting up to 40 mph Wednesday afternoon.

Crews worked to strengthen the lines during the morning in advance of high winds kicking up in the Rui-doso Downs area, where the fire has charred more than 16 square miles.

“It’s still an active fire, it’s still moving along, but it’s not getting out-side containment lines,” state Forest-ry spokesman Dan Ware said.

The 10,341-acre fire that broke out Sunday was 50 percent contained by Wednesday night.

Ware likened the work of fire crews in the rugged, steep area to landscape work.

“They’re in the back country, cut-ting a path — the containment lines — trimming up trees, cutting down sick or dying trees because they’re more susceptible to fire,” he said.

Aerial drops of fire-retardant slur-ry weren’t feasible in the wind, Ware said.

“It doesn’t do any good if the wind picks it up and carries it away,” he said.

A fire burning in central New Mexico since Saturday was 70 per-cent contained. There’s very little fire activity on that 2,700-acre blaze near the Sevilleta Wildlife Refuge, Ware said.

“They’re patrolling and mop-ping up. It looks to be in really good

shape,” he said.A weather system moving into

New Mexico was bringing some moisture and higher humidity, which Ware said was helping reduce the spread of the fires despite the wind.

Both fires forced evacuations over the weekend. Several neighborhoods around Ruidoso Downs and casino-goers at the Ruidoso Downs Race-track and Casino were told to leave. In the Sevilleta area, heavy smoke forced about 50 people from the New Mexico Boys Ranch near Belen, about 60 miles south of Albuquerque.

All the evacuations have been lifted.

No structures burned in the Sevil-leta area, but the Ruidoso Downs-ar-ea blaze destroyed five houses and seven outbuildings, damaged two other homes and two outbuildings and burned numerous vehicles. The fire began in steep, rugged Gavilan Canyon and grew rapidly, pushed by winds estimated at 50 to 60 mph.

Ware said the Ruidoso-area fire has passed by neighborhoods that had been evacuated, and that even if the wind direction changed, the fire would not be able to advance be-cause it would be pushed into areas that already have burned out.

State Forestry Division officials said Tuesday the Sevilleta fire was caused by sparks from a hand-held metal grinder that ignited grass and weeds. They were looking for the per-son or persons responsible.

The Ruidoso-area fire also was human-caused, but the exact cause was unknown, Ware said.

Editor,

In response to “Flanagan leaves after almost two decades,” the Daily Lobo did a great job in showing the University who Don Flanagan is and continues to be.

I am writing to say a few words about the five players who should not remain nameless: Tina Doughty, Erin Boettcher, Morgan Toben, Brianna Taylor and Jasmine Patterson. These young, and I stress young, freshmen should never have given Coach Flanagan an ultimatum. It was not their place or their right.

First, let me say a few words on what I know about the great coach. I am 23 years old in a few days, and my family has had season tickets for the women’s basketball since I was in the fourth grade.

I watched Flanagan for 14 of his 16 UNM seasons from three rows from the floorboards. I have seen him choose amazing, talented players year in and year out, and I have watched him schedule some of the most challenging teams for exhibition games because those teams come (in some cases as far as China) to play against Flanagan’s players.

I have also watched him continue to increase attendance numbers but, more importantly, season-ticket holders.

And every four years, we see seniors leave with a better basketball talent because Flanagan helped them improve.

But it doesn’t end there. Coach Flanagan’s players have always had

some of the highest GPAs in the conference. Many players achieved the honor of all-academic MWC, not to mention players like Dionne Marsh who have gone on to pursue medical school or higher degrees, while keeping up a full-season basketball schedule.

How many college coaches can boast that? Now back to the five women.

Flanagan gave those five women an opportunity to be a part of the Lobo legacy while getting an education.

This legacy includes players like Chelsea Grear, Jordan Adams (a future Timberwolf), Molly McKinnon (future coach) and many more. Flanagan made the UNM women’s basketball team a contender in the Mountain West Confercence, NCAA, WNIT and the Western Athletic Conference, but thanks to five ungrateful women, Flanagan will no longer be coaching.

If I were Flanagan, I would have told them they are free to leave at anytime (and leave their nice scholarships, too). But most likely because Flanagan cares about the game and sees potential in everyone, he retires so these women will not ruin their college careers.

So, all I can say is: Coach Flanagan, you will be greatly missed, and your coaching talents will go unmatched in many Lobo fans’ eyes.

A few bad apples may have spoiled the end of an era, but they will never spoil the legacy you created at UNM and in New Mexico. Thank you, Coach Flanagan.

Editor,

I am a teacher’s assistant for a large lecture class.

One of my responsibilities as a TA is to help the lecturer maintain a degree of classroom decorum that at this point should be second nature for students. Unfortunately, a discour-aging number of students need frequent re-

minders about what is and isn’t appropriate classroom behavior

Arriving late to class is disruptive and dis-respectful to the lecturer and fellow students. For this reason, most course syllabi clearly list tardiness as class policy violation.

I suggest to Curtis Vernon, who in his recent letter decried his experience dealing with the consequences of violating this policy, to un-derstand that attending classes is not a right but a privilege.

There is no “legitimate reason” to miss or ar-rive late to a class that cannot also be supplied with a doctor’s note or similar documentation.

Rather than blame others for the conse-quences of your behavior, consider instead to be more mindful of responsibilities as a stu-dent and increase efforts to avoid similar inci-dents in the future.

Sometimes, these sorts of things are simply unavoidable, but I suspect that classmates and instructors are more willing to “take pity” on students who accept personal responsibility for their actions over those who fault everyone but themselves.

“Spring is here, oh spring is here, life is Skittles, and life is beer,” sings Tom Lehrer in his ballad, “Poisoning Pigeons in the Park.”

Before you throw down your paper in disgust (or maybe, if you’re not a fan of pigeons, pump your fist in the air as you run off to the nearest Lowe’s for a bottle of cyanide), wait — this letter is in no way advocating pigeon genocide. I’m thinking more along the lines of Skittles and beer.

Spring is here, and with it, birds are crooning love songs, flowers are revealing reproductive organs to expose blushing blossoms. Booty shorts make a comeback as women make their first attempts to tan their legs, turned ghostly white from the winter months.

Hippies vibrate the walls of the Center of the Universe with reverberating drumbeats.

The Duck Pond once again becomes a thriving metropolis, its gravity beckoning like a whirling vortex, whispering, “Who cares about midterms? Come lounge in the sun’s rays beside canopies of cherry blossoms! Read a book. Smoke a cigarette. Chat with friends. Perfect that tan. Anything but work!”

Ah yes, with spring comes spring fever.While the world outside the classroom

and library walls bursts at the seams with rejuvenation, you grudgingly muster your inner will to write that paper, study for that exam, come up with a captivating hook with which to begin your presentation tomorrow morning.

It’s important to do your work, but keep

the spirit of spring inside you. Put a little skip in your step on your way to class, like Dorothy on her way to see the wizard. Walk barefoot like a flower child; hell, put some flowers in your hair while you’re at it.

Do an ollie off the stairs in front of Zimmerman Library, indulging in some campus parkour. Climb up to the top of the Chemistry Building after lab (don’t get caught). Suck in your breath when you catch sight of the vibrant colors of sunset. Drink a beer on the patio of your favorite bar. When

you get home, drink another beer on the stoop of your porch, and strum some tunes on your guitar. Get your friends to sing along. Go for a midnight bike ride, and as you fly down the empty streets. Take a deep breath of the cool nighttime air.

We are extremely lucky to live a life that allows us to indulge in life’s pleasures and expand our minds on a daily basis. Hopefully being in school does that for you.

If not, you might want to rethink your major. Just sayin’. Not everyone in the world has it this good, remember?

It’s easy to get caught up worrying about

your grades, boyfriends, girlfriends, whether to buy that blue halter-top or those white booty shorts. Heck, you can spend all day worrying about your petty problems.

But does it really matter? Being the busy little bees that we are, it’s easy to lose sight of life’s bigger questions and the world’s bigger problems that are conveniently veiled from our blissful existence.

So take a minute to feel the grass under your toes. Inhale the sweet scent of flower blossoms. Watch the clouds assimilate into dragons, only to disassemble into wispy trails moments later.

But go to class. Stay in school. Because you have the potential inside of you to push the limits of man’s understanding of the world, cure the illnesses that decimate children in that oh-so-far-away third world.

You can design and build houses with rooftop gardens and solar panels. You can run for president. Remember when you were a kid and dreamed about what you wanted to be when you grew up? Don’t lose sight of that. If you do, that kid inside you will be awfully disappointed.

As the Reverend J.O. Graham wrote, “Each of us should remember that we are writing our eulogy every day of our lives.”

Enjoy every spring, year after year, because someday, it will be your last. And you will want to remember all of the times the silky fragrances of flower blossoms tickled your nostrils.

But just the same, you will want to remember that time when you finally blossomed into the person that made the world a better place.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Fam-ily members wept and church bells pealed across West Virginia for 29 fallen coal miners on the first an-niversary of the powerful explo-sion that tore apart the Upper Big Branch Mine.

Massey Energy Co., owner of the vast underground mine where the men died in the worst coalfield disaster since 1970, halted produc-tion at underground mines in West Virginia, Virginia and Kentucky. Families and friends of the victims, other miners and politicians gath-ered for a series of memorial cer-emonies and events that continued from early morning into the night.

“These 29 brave men. The pain that they have suffered and what you have suffered reminded me of the work that has yet to be done,” Labor Secretary Hilda Solis told more than 120 relatives gathered at a private memorial service for the families in Whitesville. “Safe-ty should never be sacrificed and these deaths should not have been.”

The families — more than 120 fathers, mothers, siblings and chil-dren — crowded the Whitesville Elementary gym to remember and pray for the miners.

Most wore shirts commemorat-ing lost relatives or miner’s clothes bearing their distinctive reflective safety stripes.

“On this anniversary, we cel-ebrate them. We celebrate these courageous miners. We remember them, each of them as individuals,” Rep. Nick Rahall, D-W.Va. said. “I know many of them through you.”

The Whitesville service was a somber, formal affair with speech-es by Solis, acting Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and the state’s congres-sional delegation behind 29 min-ers’ helmets with their cap lamps lit and photos of the victims. Students at West Virginia University set up a Faces of the Mine web site that offered profiles of the miners and planned live streaming video of the evening service from a gym at the Whitesville Elementary School in the state’s southern coalfields.

“Ultimately I’m one of those who believes that it never really does go away, the pain,” Sen. Jay Rockefeller said. “In some ways, maybe it shouldn’t because it is a form of love and obligation to those who are affected.”

President Barack Obama said in a statement that his administration is working to bring those responsi-

People from the coal mining towns along the Coal River gather in April 2010 for a memorial vigil in Naoma, W.Va. Twenty-nine miners died in the explosion at Massey Energy Co.’s Upper Big Branch mine in Montcoal, W.Va.

Families remember minersOne year later, relatives join to celebrate lives of coalfield disaster victims

ble to justice and prevent a similar tragedy from occurring again.

“The Justice Department’s in-vestigation into the mine own-er’s practices in West Virginia has led, so far, to two criminal indict-ments,” Obama said. “We know we can also improve our mine safety laws to better provide for the safety of the men and women who work in America’s mines.”

Two miners survived the blast at Upper Big Branch, a complex of miles of underground mine work-ings in an area of Appalachia about 50 miles south of Charleston.

The day began with acting Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin laying a wreath of yellow roses adorned with a black ribbon at a memorial to the state’s coal miners on the Capitol grounds. Alongside the wreath was a child’s hand-drawn card depict-ing a cross, shovel and pick, and a plea for God to bless the fallen men. Attached was a gift, a plastic cube containing a tiny yellow toy backhoe.

Later in the day, at First Chris-tian Church in Beckley, candles were wrapped with the reflec-tive orange striping that miners wear underground on their navy blue work clothes. Tiny lapel rib-bons in the same orange and silver were handed out to about 150 peo-ple who gathered for a brief ser-vice with prayers and song, but no speeches. Nearly all wore either a miner’s shirt or jacket, or a ball cap bearing the number 29.

Terry Ellison of Beckley lit 29 candles, a bell tolling each time, in honor of her brother, 40-year-old Steven “Smiley” Harrah of Cool Ridge. Harrah was killed as he was ending his shift and leaving the mine with the others.

“It’s just like yesterday for us, and it will never get better. We’ll just learn how to cope with it,” Elli-son said, urging people to “remem-ber the good men they were.”

The federal Mine Safety and Health Administration has said the explosion occurred when meth-ane gas ignited, then touched off highly explosive coal dust that had been allowed to accumulate

in the mine. The result was a blast so powerful it turned corners and rounded a 1,000-foot-wide block of coal, packing the power to kill men more than a mile away.

Massey denies any wrongdo-ing, blaming a sudden inundation of natural gas that overwhelmed all safety systems.

“The company remains fully committed to a thorough and com-prehensive investigation that seeks to identify the primary causes of the explosion and provide answers to the UBB families and the commu-nities we serve in Central Appala-chia,” Massey said in a statement.

It resembles a mad scientist’s lair.� e Museum of Southwestern Biology has

wall-to-wall � ling cabinets, each shelf containing rows upon rows of stu� ed animals. In all, the museum houses more than 230,000 specimens from more than 68 countries, making it the � fth-largest mammal collection in the world.

Jon Dunnum, the museum’s collection manager, pulled open a shelf � lled with moles from South Carolina’s Aiken County last week. � e small mammals looked like something out of a child’s toy collection, but Dunnum said the drawer’s contents don’t faze him.

“� e key is to preserve this stu� in perpetuity because we don’t know what questions we are going to want to answer or the tools we are going to have to answer them,” he said, brandishing a mole. “It’s our duty to preserve things for future generations of scientists.”

� at’s why each specimen is tagged with information such as sex or geographical location. Next to some of the moles are tiny skeletons preserved in plastic vials.

He holds the mole as a person might hold a book in a library — with complete ease. He’s at home in the museum, talking about how specimens are entered into Arctos, a database that has a corresponding physical notation in one of the hundreds of notebooks stored in the CERIA building.

� e museum houses mostly rodents and bats, the two most diverse animal groups in the world, Dunnum said, but also contains major selections from the Southwest, Beringia and Latin America. � ey even have a safe-sized whale vertebra, a platypus and specimens from 1890.

� at still isn’t as interesting as the bottom

“Biology has progressed tremendously due to the model that Darwin put forth. But the black boxes Darwin accepted are now being opened, and our view of the world is again being shaken.” ~Michael Behe

No lab rats here,just dead moles and bats.It’s a mausoleum ...

IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE

� oor of the Division of Mammals. Countless � sh, snakes and lizards lie dead in jars, but further back is the unsettling mammal section. One jar is � lled with bat fetuses. Another is home to a bat the size of a miniature Yorkshire terrier.

And in another jar with yellow � uid is a platypus complete with a bill, claws and beaver pelt.

Not everyone understands the museum’s value, Dunnum said.

“� ere are certainly people that if they don’t take the time to understand what goes on these places they’ll say, ‘Oh you have killed all these cute, little animals,’ he

said. “You can conserve whole ecosystems, which is vastly more important than not sacri� cing these 10 mice because they are cute. I understand how people can feel this way, but people doing this work are very concerned about the biodiversity on Earth.”

To the layperson, it’s hard to understand how 230,000 animals in � ling cabinets help the scienti� c community.

Consider the 1993 outbreak of the hantavirus, Dunnum said.

To understand the problem, the museum, together with the Center for Disease Control and New Mexico Department of Health, collected mammals.

Dunnum said they found that the virus came from deer mice with � eas carrying the disease, which was strange because hantavirus is an old-world disease. He said some people thought it was a government conspiracy, but that wasn’t true.

“We were able to go into our frozen tissue banks,” Dunnum said. “We had been saving tissues since the mid 1970s, and we were able to go into those banks and look at tissues for the deer mice that we had. We were able to get virus out of those tissues, 20 years back predating this outbreak. Right then we could say, ‘No this isn’t anything new. We just haven’t seen it yet.’”

Yet that’s only a small section of what the museum does, Dunnum said. He said 50 years ago scientists didn’t have access to DNA testing, but now they do, which makes the museum more valuable. Dunnum said these unexpected advances drive the collection’s expansion.

“Fifty years ago, we didn’t have the tools to extract DNA and do molecular work, so these were of limited value then,” he said. “In 50 years from now, who knows what we are going to be able to do? Who knows what tools are going to be there?”

To borrow the book metaphor again, the museum is an ever-growing library. Papers and research on specimens are added to the Arctos collection, Dunnum said.

“It’s a snapshot in time and space all the way through the history of these species,” he said. “We have a point in space and time where we can say undeniably this species occurred. So now we can go back, 50 years from now, go to that same place and ask questions: Has this place changed? How has it changed? Why has it changed?”

Emma Difani / Daily LoboThe moles at the Division of Mammals are just one example of research specimens. The museum houses more than 230,000 specimens, making it the world’s � fth-largest collection.

Right now, in a trailer above Castetter Hall, flesh-eating bugs are feasting on rotting meat.

But don’t worry, it’s purely scientific.

The bug room, as it’s referred to by the Division of Mammals, is a small trailer that smells like spoiled beef jerky, said Andrea Jackson, a biology undergrad who works there.

“I went home immediately the first time and had my mom smell my shirt,” she said. “She was like, ‘Ugh, that smells like rotting flesh ...’ It’s a strong smell that just lingers until you take a shower.”

She was holding a small rodent’s skeleton and tasked with entering it into the Arctos database. She said she and coworkers take fresh specimens and get them ready for the museum.

“You kind of set yourself apart from it, and you realize you are doing sci-ence, not killing animals just for fun,” Jackson said.

The first step is capturing or receiv-ing the specimen. This can be done in field studies, and some people even bring in roadkill, said Jon Dunnum, the museum’s collection manager.

“So they are going home, and see a beaver killed on the road, or a porcu-pine that was run over,” he said. “They pick them up, put them in bags, and call us.”

From there, Jackson said, she skins the animals and removes their vital organs.

“A good example, I guess, is kind of like a banana, but it’s just kind of ‘eh.’ You pull it to the side.”

Muscle tissues are frozen and the skeleton is cleaned. Then, they go to

the bug room, where the flesh-eating beetles’ larva strip the bones clean of flesh better than any human or ma-chine. Dunnum said all mammal mu-seums have a bug room.

From there, the bones are stored, and the animal skins are stuffed with cotton and sewn shut, said Brooks Cohli, the TA in the Division of Mammals.

“It’s not like normal taxidermy,” he said. “We don’t treat skin in any way. We try to make it look as real as pos-sible, or that’s the goal.”

From there, the specimens are put into the system, and then put into the museum archives. It’s a long, visceral process, but Jackson said it’s been a great learning opportunity.

“You learn more here than in anat-omy class,” she said. “With this partic-ular job, I am able to see a whole other side of biology.”

Cohli said for his thesis, more than half of his samples will come from the museum.

“It’s just a priceless resource,” he said. “You can see how everything var-ies from a mouse up to a wolf.”

Alumni also said the work was eye-opening.

Dunnum worked there as a stu-dent, and so did the curator of the mu-seum, Joe Cook. The museum also served as a career springboard for Su-zanne Peurach, the mammal collec-tion manager of USGS Patuxent Wild-life Research Center. She said her time in the Division of Mammals directed her field of study.

“Working in the Division of Mam-mals at the Museum of Southwestern Biology was a life-changing event,” she said. “It sounds really corny, but it’s ab-solutely true. I took mammalogy and absolutely fell in love with the work.”

From roadkill to museum specimen

Emma Difani / Daily LoboFlesh-eating bugs devour a decomposing specimen last week. The animal’s skin was stripped and will be stuffed with cotton.

Even in the 21st century, Africa is perceived as exotic and dangerous.

That’s one of the misperceptions that this weekend’s Cultural Studies Conference will try to correct. “Representations of Africa” was inspired by a graduate class Marie Chantale Mofin Noussi and Lucie Florence Ceylan took two semesters ago.

Noussi said the conference will be an extension of the course.

“People from all over the world are coming and talking about this issue,” Ceylan said. “It’s just amazing. Just that we’re bringing this whole community to UNM, to me that’s just mind-blowing.”

Professor Jason Wilby said he facilitated the conference for the past three years. He said the idea struck two grad students last semester, and they presented the idea to a committee of other grad

students and professors. “The whole discussion of Africa

is tied to a very complex web of discourses about identity and mixed in there are colonial notions of superiority and racial inferiority,” he said.

With help from two other graduate students, Noussi and Ceylan built the conference from the ground up. They chartered an organization and sent out a call for papers to universities in other state and countries.

They narrowed down 26 responses to five panels that will take place over two days, highlighted by keynote speaker Dr. Elisabeth Boyi, a Stanford professor and specialist on African and Caribbean and literature.

Boyi will present her paper “From Ifrikiya to Africa: Real Continent, Imaginary Space” and will be the focus of the seminar-style conference workshop at the end of the second day.

Ceylan said the panelists, coming from all over the U.S., the United Kingdom, Puerto Rico and South Africa, will provide different lenses to view Africa. She said it’s a burning issue in academia.

“We’re so happy that people from all over the world are coming,” Ceylan said. “It’ll be very interesting to see what they have to say.”

Yjastros, derived from the word for “stepchild,” is anything but fla-menco’s red-headed stepchild.

Artistic Director Joaquin Encinias said the spring con-cert “Chispa,” translated to “Spark,” is an electrical fuse be-tween music and movement.

“It’s all coming together to cre-ate this really cool energy,” said Encinias, the son of UNM fac-ulty member Eva Encinias-San-doval, the founder of the Na-tional Institute of Flamenco.

With music from artists like Camilo Quiñones and Chus-cales, “Chispa” promises tradi-tional flamenco infused with Af-ro-Cuban and hip-hop influences.

Quiñones, a world-renowned percussionist and Albuquerque native, comes from a line of ac-complished musicians. He worked with musicians Tito Puente, the All-man Brothers and Santana. Chus-

cales, in his own right, is an inter-national flamenco star guitarist.

Marion Febres, one of the show’s primary flamenco gui-tarists, said this music fu-sion is challenging to perform.

“It’s lots of nontraditional music and ideas,” he said “The musicians really have to come together and make it work.”

Encinias, steeped in the rich history of flamenco his entire life, said he doesn’t want to be cate-gorized as just a flamenco artist.

“There are so many things that make me who I am as an artist, and that isn’t just flamenco,” he said. “The more true to yourself (you are), the more authentic it is, and the more it relates to the audience.”

With pieces like “Azul Marino,” Encinias and his company man-age to use distinct lighting and staging to show the strife that oc-curs in romantic relationships.

“It’s the unique and beauti-ful relationship between a man and a woman,” he said. “And

the ups-and-downs and backs-and-forths associated with it.”

Encinias said UNM stu-dents have the opportu-nity to see riveting dance.

“We always give the audi-ence something to look for-ward to — always,” he said.
