Strikers demand emergency decleration

By Amanda Britt & Liz Pritchard

@AmandaBritt__ @DailyLobo Students, staff and members of the University of New Mexico community called for the University to declare a state of climate emergency on Friday afternoon. University President Garnett Stokes was not in attendance to hear that message.

The climate strike included a march from Johnson Field to the outside of Stokes’ office in Scholes Hall. UNM LEAF — a climate group — and Fight For Our Lives led the march in order to present Stokes with a letter demanding a regenerative campus, investing in education on climate change action and the elimination of UNM’s investment in the fossil fuel industry.

Despite ralliers’ efforts, Stokes did not come out of Scholes Hall to receive the letter.

“It would be cool to see our executive division come out,” said Laszlo Gonzales-Aller, a sophomore at UNM. He said it was especially frustrating growing up and not being able to voice what he stands for through the voting process.

UNM LEAF and Fight For Our Lives advocated that the University needs to divest from fossil fuel companies. The organizations said by doing so, it would cut off the finan-

cial resources the fossil fuel industry uses to build fracking sites around New Mexico — cutting the funding that lobbies against the policies which protect the people and the planet.

In 2015, the UNM Foundation, which oversees the University’s investments, asked its consultant to research how much of UNM’s $408 million endowments is invested in fossil fuel companies, according to the Albuquerque Journal.

Although what constitutes a fossil fuel company is difficult to define, a retired electrical engineer from Intel told the Journal that typically 5% to 10% of an endowment lies in fossil fuel companies. At UNM, that would amount to between $20 million and $40 million.

“You can’t invest in a newer generation if you’re also investing in other things that are going to destroy the newer generation,” Gonzales-Aller said.

Marchers also demanded a stop to the use of natural gas generators to power the campus and, instead, giving students the resources to learn how to be environmentally conscious and begin using regenerative sources.

Emese Nagy, a junior from Amy Biehl Charter High School, spoke to the crowd on behalf of the students at her school who wanted to see a change in UNM’s policies regarding climate action. Nagy said fracking is poisoning the air and water, de-

stroying ecosystems in New Mexico.

“By the time I get my college diploma, I’ll be handed a death certificate as well,” she said.

Nagy said she got involved in environmental activism by joining the environmental club at her school and began attending meetings, going to the strikes and planning actions. She said the short term goal would be getting UNM and New Mexico to be a leader in stopping the climate crisis.

University of New Mexico student Madelyn Lucas has been a New Student Orientation (NSO) leader for two years. During the last two summers, Lucas would get to main campus early Monday morning and chauffeur dozens of incoming students around UNM until Thursday evening.

Lucas said she hasn’t noticed a de-

cline in the hundred or so incoming students she has worked within her two years as an NSO leader; however, in her other job as a student leader of the undergraduate student government, she grapples with it every day.

Since the fall semester of 2012, student enrollment has plummeted by one-fifth (21.68%), according to data from UNM’s Office of Institutional Analytics (OIA). The decline is in response to national trends and campus events, according to Provost James Holloway — which has led to budget

shortages, departmental scale back and a drastic shift in life for all UNM community members.

“That’s significant,” Holloway said. “That’s a challenge we’ll have to work on.”

Holloway started at the University in July 2019 but said he was aware of it even before he started as provost.

His previous school, the University of Michigan, had stable enrollment trending upward, according to Holloway. Still, he said that enrollment is at

but other schools in the Southwest,” Nagy said.

Others at the rally were concerned with a lack of education to the younger generations of students surrounding climate change.

“What we’re taught is the truth, but it’s not as clear as it is,” said Mariluz Lebkuechner, a 16-year-old student from the Public Academy for Performing Arts and organizer for Fight For Our Lives. “They don’t tell us you have 12 years to change this, so I made it clear that that is the situation we’re in.”

Organizers said they hope to

meet with President Stokes by the end of January 2020 to continue discussing the need for a regenerative campus and shift the cultural conversations regarding the climate crisis.

LARPing builds community in ABQ

By Alanie Rael & Andrea Solis @AllyRael @Drearooo Heroic sword fights, champions dressed in handmade armor, assassins lurking through a battlefield.

Actions of these sorts seem to be straight out of a medieval storybook, but for one Albuquerque community, these stories come to life through live-action role-play — or more popularly known as LARPing.

Every Saturday, non-profit group Amtgard of Albuquerque - Pegasus Valley, takes to Taylor Park to engage in medieval battle games that consist of combat weapons made of foam to replicate swords, daggers, arrows and other feudal weapons.

Members dress in garb of the middle ages, sporting leather or metal armor over their arms and chests, costumes to represent their roles within the group and anything else they deem appropriate to wear.

Dressing and battling aren’t the only means of self-expression in Pegasus Valley. According to the group’s website, “In addition to the fighting, (they) strive to better (themselves) in creating new pieces of costumes, armor, music and art.”

The community of Amtgard has become a safe place for hundreds of

individuals who have joined to meet others with similar interests.

For Pegasus Valley member and scout, Josephus Edmundson (or Salem Mordai to those in Pegasus Valley), dressing in his custom-made armor during Saturday battles is his opportunity to be himself in a community of like-minded individuals.

“Some people are loners and they just can’t find their group. I feel like (Amtgard) allows them to get their group, their people,” Edmundson said.

The Amtgard recreational organization is not singular to Albuquerque. It began in Texas in 1993 and has grown through make-believe Kingdoms, Shires, Baronies and Duchies spanning across American cities and other parts of the world.

Once a year, Edmundson said that participants from all these Kingdoms and make-believe civilizations join together in a Gathering of the Clans somewhere in the U.S. to battle, feast and engage in one large celebration of all that Amtgard stands for.

“In Amtgard we have multiple Kingdoms,” Edmundson said, “I’ve met people all the way from Alaska to Hawaii to North Carolina, just all over the country going to these Gatherings of the Clans.”

LARPing began in 1977 when Dagorhir, a DC area full-contact me-

the forefront of his mind and his office.

A large whiteboard in his office used to have “it’s all about enrollment, stupid” written across it. Holloway said he wanted to remind himself and everyone who came through his office about how to import he believes enrollment is.

“Enrollment is important first because it’s how we deliver on our mission, and so if we’re going to educate the next generation of leaders and

contributors to our society we need to get them here. We need to show them the value of UNM as a place to study and learn,” Holloway said.

The number of credit hours undergraduate students are taking dropped by 20.37% over the past five years, according to the 2019 Official Enrollment Report, an annual report created by UNM OIA. The most significant decreases came from the College of Arts and Sciences at 26.80% and the Col-

dieval game, was founded. However, for many LARP’ers they have a connection with Dungeons and Dragons and, nowadays, it has become a more popular concept appearing in shows such as the CW’s Riverdale and movies such as Role Models.

Author of “Leaving Mundania: Inside the Transformative World of Live Action Role-Playing Games”, Lizzie Stark dives into the nitty-gritty details of LARPing, calling it a “grassroots movement” that goes beyond

foam swords and dressing up.

Since 1977, LARPing has grown and different groups can be found all over the world. There are many different reasons as to why people are so drawn to this fad. It is not just a game, serious research of medieval time period, weaponry and the arts are done.

Game designer Ron Edwards came up with the self-proclaimed GNS theory, which can be defined as “role-playing attracts, gamists, nar-

lege of Education with a 28.57% drop from fall 2015 to fall 2019.

According to the report, 18,671 of the 22,792 students who attended UNM during the fall 2019 semester came from New Mexico. The secondlargest group of students came from the American Southwest — 561 students from California, 404 from Texas, 266 from Colorado and 221 from Arizona.

Dan Garcia, the vice president of enrollment, said the University is reaching out to “academically qualified” students across the nation who take the ACT and SAT tests and promoting them to come to UNM. “The commitment that we make is that we’re never going to displace a New Mexico resident,” Garcia said.

“We’re only going to give opportunities as space is available to out-of-state students, but it’s going to improve the quality of the educational experience for some of our New Mexico residents who just haven’t had an opportunity to interact with people from across the nation or the globe.”

Mark Peceny, the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, the largest undergraduate college at UNM, has been a faculty member since 1992 and a dean since 2011. Peceny said he has noticed different reactions among different departments within the college — the Department of Criminology especially benefiting from this decline in class size.

“We haven’t had enough faculty

people focused on Criminology to keep the class sizes down. Now there are less people in the courses, and now they provide a better quality experience and spend more time individually on students,” Peceny said.

Ryan Linquist, director of Student Activities at UNM, said he has seen about an $86,000 reduction in the last ten years in funding for student clubs.

This funding primarily provides food for events.

“It just means we have to hand off and find assistance with most of our events. Some of those daytime events we’ve had to cut because we just don’t have the budget for those things to come in, so we’ve had to get more creative,” Linquist said.

What’s being done There are a number of things the University can do to help increase its enrollment, according to Garcia. One thing the University is doing, according to Garcia, is changing some of its most basic messages to students who qualify to come to UNM. The Office of Enrollment has also partnered with several colleges and schools throughout the University to develop messages specific to students’ areas of interest.

“We send out messages to students who indicate on their interest form or that when they took the SAT or ACT that they were interested in engineering, that we have engineering programs,” Garcia said. “In fact, the message comes from folks in that college

directly to the student with their name, so they can build and make those contacts early on.”

Peceny said there are steps the College of Arts and Sciences is taking to help increase enrollment by hiring a recruitment specialist.

“I personally have become more engaged in recruitment than I ever have been. I’ve gone out to visit a number of high schools, and talked to classes,” Peceny said.

Thomas Martinez, a junior majoring in political science, said he has already noticed how declining enrollment could affect the budget when it comes to increasing tuition to cover the lack of funding for certain programs.

“There might be some costs that we will literally have to pay, and then if it gets really bad then we are going to lose programs,” Martinez said. He added what he thought might need to happen to increase enrollment.

“It’s going to take a lot of collaboration from the Board of Directors, the President, maybe ASUNM to probably get more of the word out there,” Martinez finished.

rativists and simulationists.” A place that exists for everyone and it goes beyond just “nerd culture.” A LARP culture has emerged over the many decades LARPing has been around.

The University of New Mexico has created a similar kind of culture at UNM through the College of Blaiddwyn, a campus club dedicated to student involvement in middle age history.

The UNM club engages in activities like costuming, rapier combat, calligraphy and weaponry, gathering on the University’s Johnson Field on Wednesday evenings to practice and show off their skills.

College of Blaiddwyn president and self-proclaimed history geek Hero Morrison made it clear that although the club activities are similar to LARPing, they do not consider themselves LARPers.

“What we do on Johnson Field is fighter practice so we’ve got heavy armor recreated as best we can,” Morrison said. “It’s very similar to LARPing but without the magic and we’re a lot more focused on historicity and historical accuracy than ‘I’m

half-elf running through the woods.’”

Although the UNM group has different interests than Albuquerque’s Amtgard group, they are similar in terms of content and community.

Members from both the College of Blaiddwyn and Pegasus Valley expressed how therapeutic battling or expressing themselves creatively can be and the value of being in such a community.

“This sets me free … it’s cheaper than therapy.” Zachariah Wallace said, a College of Blaiddwyn member who goes by Gottfried Von Zollern in the group society. “It is more than just a club. I didn’t pay anything, they invited me into their home, they fed me and we created something. That is what is unique about the club and there are experts that have been doing it for 25 plus years, there’s something for everybody.”

As loved a hobby it is by those who participate in historical reenactment, it has the potential to be misunderstood by people who have never LARPed or been in a historical role-play group.

Pegasus Valley organizer and

group leader Sean Chapel spoke to a misconception of exclusivity around LARPing, saying that groups like Amtgard welcome newcomers with open arms.

“I wish more people knew how caring and accepting Amtgarders are and how easy it is to get involved in our game,” Chapel said.

As interesting as the activities are that make up the College of Blaiddwyn and Amtgard, it is the relationships and community that are built that are crucial for so many of these participants.

“It’s always fun to dress up like a Viking and make mead and stuff,” Morrison said. “But it’s even nicer to have that relationship with other people.”

Lobo staff look to next chapter

By Loreena Cain & Alex Hiett @DailyLobo @Nmal1123 The stresses of modern education and deadline anxieties are coming to an end, and three of the Daily Lobo's own staff are looking forward to having time to spend enjoying the outdoors.

Culture editor Luisa Pennington, sports editor Alanie Rael and photographer and reporter Kristina Tanberg are three of the seniors departing from the University of New Mexico this week, diplomas in hand.

Luisa Pennington After three and a half years at UNM and half a year as the culture editor of the Daily Lobo, Pennington is graduating at 20 years old with a double major in English and environmental communications and a minor in political science. She began at the University as a journalism major but switched to English for more freedom and variety in what she was writing.

Pennington started working at the Lobo in 2018.

"I was two years into college and said, 'I'm still not writing enough,'" Pennington said. "I walked into the Lobo kind of reluctantly, because I thought I would be biting off more than I could chew."

Pennington points to her genetics as a reason she is graduating early, coming from a family of educators. She w a s

taught never to say "no" to new opportunities, she said.

"The world has presented so many beautiful experiences to me," she said.

"I'd rather say I'm exhausted and I experienced it than nothing at all."

Currently, Pennington doesn’t think she’ll continue with journalism after college — at least not immediately. After graduation, she plans to spend more time out in nature before her position with Teach for America begins in August of 2020.

Luke Standley, a religious studies student at UNM and friend of Pennington's of two years, met her at a party where they perused each other’s Spotify listens, creating a bond. He recalled fondly the time she broke his brother’s back windshield.

"We had just finished snow skiing and water skiing and Luisa was getting something out of his car," Standley said. "We brought our big amp to play music while we were at the lake, so it was in the back."

"She got whatever she was looking for, slammed the door and the amp went straight through the window," he said. "There was not a bit of glass left on the window."

Standley added that Pennington will still be invited on skiing trips, regardless of the previous chaos.

Alanie Rael Alanie Rael, the sports editor for the Lobo, was originally working toward a forestry degree at New Mexico Highlands University before transferring to UNM in the fall of 2017. She’s receiving a multimedia journalism degree with a minor in geography.

She found her interest in journalism after the photograph of a Syrian boy in an ambulance was widely distributed around major Western media outlets.

it were and if there was something I was missing."

Rael will return to Girls, Inc. of Santa Fe after finishing at UNM. Girls, Inc. is a non-profit with a chapter in Santa Fe that helps girls foster strong communication skills, healthy relationships and open-mindedness toward STEM careers. Ally has been working with the female-empowering non-profit for years, and it's something she is passionate about, she said.

"As much as I love journalism, working with children is kind of my calling," she said. "I feel I found that calling very early in life, and I’m very happy for that."

Rael became close friends with Makayla Grijalva, the managing editor at the Lobo, while on a trip to Cuba together this past summer. The two friends spent one week abroad learning the culture of the island through photography.

Grijalva recalled an experience of going to a late showing of Frozen 2 with Rael.

"We went at 10:35 p.m. to avoid all the children, and she thought the entire theatre was empty," Grijalva said. "A Walmart commercial comes on, talking about buying presents for your kids and how buying all these

MONDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2019 / PAGE 3 huge things is what you have to do."

"She just yells at the screen, 'Consumerism for Christmas is a lie!'"

Grijalva said. "I was like, 'Ally, there’s people in the theatre! They’re gonna think we’re gonna throw up a ruckus!'"

Kristina Tanberg Kristina Tanberg has been friends with Pennington since her sophomore year of high school. She’ll be leaving UNM with a degree in international studies focused on environment and sustainability, and a minor in earth and planetary sciences. She began working at the Lobo this semester and was prompted to apply for the job because it involved photography, something Tanberg is passionate about.

Tanberg noted the impact that her first year of college had on her.

"I took a Freshman Learning Community course. They mash a group of students in the same classes," said Tanberg. "There, I made my solid core group of friends that I’ve had throughout all of college."

Rather than rushing into a career right away, she plans to take things a bit more slowly allowing her to do what is best for herself, she divulged.

"I want to be able to take some time for myself rather than giving it to so many other things," Tanberg said.

This may include a stint at the U.S. Forestry Service, where she has applied to work. Tanberg said that after a year, she’ll return to school for a master’s degree.

Julia Andreas, Tanberg’s friend and roommate of three years and a UNM biology student, points to nature as a force that helped shaped their friendship.

The friendship solidified on a sunset bike ride along the Rio Grande during a stressful week.

"If she goes someplace, she’ll like find me a rock and bring it to me," said Andreas. "If I go someplace, I find her some rocks."

"I have about 18 rocks in my car right now," Tanberg said. "One of them I thought was a dinosaur tooth, but it turns out it’s an artifact from indige-

nous people that live up near Canada."

As Tanberg considers a job with the forest service, Rael and Pennington are preparing to start a new job working together at Ski Santa Fe for the winter. A part of each of their post-college plans is continuing to build their relationships to the natural world.

"I have a really deep appreciation for it because it’s simpler than having to be at school, or work, or around a lot of people," said Rael.

"Honestly," Tanberg said, "Being outdoors is the only place I really feel happy and at peace."

"We are conditioned to have something out within four hours, the day it happens," Pennington said, referencing her job at the student paper.

"And to be able to have the whole day to complete a hike to get to the top of a mountain — it’s your pace, you’re completely in control. What’s more beautiful than that autonomy?"

Dannelle Kirven graduating as beloved UNM student leaderence though art and friendship

By Daniel Ward

@wordsofward34 As a first generation college student, Dannelle Kirvin has made a huge impact on campus every year she has been at the University of New Mexico. Majoring in multimedia journalism with a minor in criminology, she came to UNM knowing exactly what she wanted with her heart set on making a difference and standing up for what’s right.

Kirven held a variety of different leadership positions — President of Zeta Phi Beta sorority and President of the Black Student Union (BSU).

Since the fall of 2015 she held a work study position in the computer lab of African American Student Services (AASS), but she recently started working there as a professional support intern.

“Just becoming a part of something that is bigger than yourself, accomplishing a goal and getting support from all types of different people,” Kirven said. “Even people who were not part of my organiza-

tion welcomed me to Greek life, and it really molded me into the leader I am today.”

For Kirven, the most challenging experience during her time in college was being a social activist as a student.

“I really wanted us to have equality on campus in every space and be represented on campus, and that was really hard because it’s hard to be a student and juggle your mental health, your physical health and also being an advocate for other students,” Kirven said.

Kirven said it was tough to manage, but she had a really good support system with everything she was involved with.

“It’s been a little overwhelming, but in a good way,” Kirven said. “This has been my dream since I was little to graduate college, so I feel like I’m finally completing my dream and I’m just thankful and excited for what’s next.”

After graduation, Kirven plans on continuing work as an AASS professional support intern until her contract is up in August 2020. She said she’s going to take a year off before

thinking about looking into graduate school — hoping to work with students who do marketing for universities.

Throughout her undergraduate experience, Kirven said part of what makes her story so unique is that she has had to face dealing with the loss of her cousin and uncle, as well as two of her friends and one of her fraternity brothers.

“I feel like part of the reason why I try to work so hard and stay dedicated to everything that I’m in is to honor their memory, to continue to move forward and make sure that I’m someone they can be proud of,” Kirven said.

Public communications and Africana studies junior Miles Blakemore has been one of Kirven’s close friends since they met two years ago at an annual back to school barbecue. From there, he says they clicked right away and spent a lot of time together at the AASS center.

“The first time I met Dannelle, she was super sweet to me and very nice, and then the next day after that we just clicked immediately which was like a huge standout to me,”

Blakemore said.

He also said Kirven helped him a lot with classwork and getting accustomed to the dynamics of UNM after he transferred from CNM. He said she supported him when he entered the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Incorporated organization.

“Dannelle is passionate about her work. If you give her a task, she will be dedicated to get it done with 110% effort,” Blakemore said.

One of the big things Blakemore says Kirven did to make an impact on campus was to help create the Black Living Learning Community in Coronado Hall. It’s a safe space for black students living in the dorm to be around others who have similar aspirations or majors and connect with each other for support.

“I always want to make sure that she’s good, because she’s always making sure that I’m good,” Blakemore said. “She’s definitely like a big sister influence on me. If I know she’s good, than I know ultimately I’m going to be okay.”

Brandi Stone, the interim director of the AASS, oversees the day to day operations in the office in order

to provide resources and support services to retain and graduate black students. Kirven said that Stone was a big mentor for her throughout her college experience, but Stone said Kirven was the one who helped everyone else be successful with how mature and encouraging she is.

“I have seen Dannelle grow in so many different capacities, but I think the most important one is that way she uses her voice to advocate on behalf of others,” Stone said. “As somebody who supervises her, I’ve seen her make a huge impact in our center as far as the welcoming and friendliness of our office to students.”

Kirven has had a lot of support from every organization she was involved in. From her community at the AASS and BSU, to her sisters in the Zeta Phi Beta sorority, she seems to have found the key to success by surrounding herself with like minded individuals who she can rely on like family.

Carmen Carretero Martinez wants to give back to world through architecture

By Alyssa Martinez @amart4447

Photo courtesy of Carmen Carretero-Martinez

Carmen Carretero Martinez has always been “the different kid.”

Born in Spain and anchored in Bioko Island for her early teen years, Carretero Martinez found fragments of ‘home’ in New Mexico during her time at the University of New Mexico, she said.

The journey for the 19-year-old architecture graduate, however, was not without turbulence.

Carretero Martinez arrived in the United States with her family at age 15, in search of educational opportunity as college neared. She was dropped into Santa Fe High School without being fluent in English, Carretero Martinez picked up the language by joining teams — from swim to soccer to tennis — before graduating at 16.

Though the language and the government were unfamiliar, Carretero Martinez said the view didn’t deviate much from her roots.

“New Mexico has a lot of impact from Spain,” Carretero Martinez said. “Coming from Spain — and also the island from Africa was a colony of Spain — I found that they all have the same type of landscape and architecture.”

She was, of course, referring to the cube-shaped slabs of adobe that comprise the Land of Enchantment.

Though the formulaic structures provided a sense of familiarity, Carretero Martinez’s work in architecture does not rush to replicate it.

Instead, Carretero Martinez described her architecture as “very futuristic” and said she breaks away from the harsh blockiness

that pervades most cities.

“I mime the shapes of the environment,” Carretero Martinez explained.

“When you look out on the desert here in New Mexico, you don’t see cubes, you see these sort of dune-type shapes — so I design architecture that represents the environment.”

Her willingness to disrupt the status quo was not always easy, though.

As a young girl, Carretero Martinez often found herself in opposition to the established structures of society simply by being herself.

“Since I was a little kid, I always liked to create things, do art, paint — but back then, architecture was sort of a thing for boys,” she said.

Carretero Martinez said with this limitation in mind, she relinquished her interest in the field. She told herself that her brother could become the architect, while she would just become the artist, devoid of her true passion.

“But then when I decided to apply at UNM, I was scrolling through the majors and looking for ‘art.’ On the A’s, I stopped in architecture, and my mom said, ‘it’s your thing. Go ahead

and do it’” she said.

And so, Carretero Martinez said she silenced her apprehension and went forward without looking back.

This persistence is what Carretero Martinez attributes to be her most valuable characteristic.

“I sometimes find it difficult for professors or other classmates (to take me seriously) because I’m graduating and I’m 19. But, that sort of makes me come out with more force,” Carretero Martinez said. “A lot of people told me ‘just take a couple of years off and come back to college, you’re not in a hurry’ — but if you want to do it, why not.”

Carretero Martinez found allies in her time at UNM in spite of those who doubted her. She said in the architecture department, there are strict guidelines about how to complete certain tasks. Some instructors recognized her ingenuity and encouraged her to be more free in her designs during her third year. “(Some instructors said) ‘whatever you’re thinking, just put it on paper. Don’t think that it needs to have walls or doors — just put it there, then start incorporating the architecture part’ — and I figured out that it actually works. If you can create it in your head, you can create it in real life,” Carretero Martinez said.

ero Martinez said she’s prepared to move to the Bay Area to begin a master’s program in architecture at the University of California, Berkeley. She would then like to get another master’s in international relations so she can give back to the world through her love of architecture.

“You can see here in New Mexico the two different sides of the coin — the very rich and the very poor. I wish there was more balance, but there is still a lot of need,” Carretero Martinez said. She added that whether it’s building schools or otherwise, she wants to help “create a better quality of life” wherever she lands.

Though the tasks will change, her motivation to persist will remain constant. “(My mom) tells me this phrase in Spanish, ‘no hay nada imposible, sino hombres incapaces,’ which means ‘there is nothing impossible, other than incapable human beings.’” Carretero Martinez said. “So if I want to tell myself I’m incapable of doing it, I can, but it’s not impossible,” Alyssa Martinez is a beat reporter at the Daily Lobo.

This advice led Carretero Martinez to push boundaries beyond the department. This fall, Carretero Martinez was the first UNM architecture student to present at an engineering symposium hosted by the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) in Phoenix, Arizona.

“Everyone (at the symposium) was sort of wondering what I was doing there because I was in architecture and not science, but since the beginning of this year, architecture is part of STEM,” she said. She added that she hopes other architects will attend these symposiums because of the new perspective it gave her on her work.

A desire to gain a new perspective is an inseparable component of Carretero Martinez’s character, said Ajinkya Patil. Patil has known Carretero Martinez since 2017 when they met at a going-away party for a mutual friend and is now her boyfriend.

“I think a big part of her personality is that she has stayed in three different countries,” Patil said. “(Despite this) she doesn’t have an identity that has been formed by just one of them.”

He added that her diverse experiences have made her grow and push her “to keep going from one country to another.“ As for where comes next, Carret-

Reducing stress key to finals

By Megan Holmen @megan_holmen As the new decade finds its beginning, the University of New Mexico is on its way to the end of its fall semester.

Finals — coinciding with the holidays and the change in the weather — often leave people feeling stressed, exhausted and irritable. Coincidentally, all three of these things are detrimental to a healthy life balance and achieving the desired grades.

In an effort to help college students everywhere stay a little bit saner, researchers across the globe have studied the best ways to reduce stress and the most effective study habits.

According to an article in the New York Times, much of what people think they know about effective learning and stress reduction isn’t actually helpful at all — and in some cases is actually a detriment.

The article cites that everyone learns differently and experiences motivation to learn and complete tasks in individualized ways. For example, one commonly accepted "healthy" study habit is the practice

of studying in a consistent place, both quiet and familiar. Realistically, this practice is not the key to being a good learner or effective studier; rather, switching up locations for studying helps people remember information better.

"For instance, instead of sticking to one study location, simply alternating the room where a person studies improves retention. So does studying distinct but related skills or concepts in one sitting, rather than focusing intensely on a single thing," New York Times author Benedict Carey said.

Another study published in the American Psychological Association found that generally healthy life habits established outside of studying helped students reduce stress and anxiety while improving retention when studying. In other words, people who had previously established coping mechanisms such as eating a healthy breakfast or exercising would maintain these habits during high levels of academic, intellectual and emotional stress — allowing them to effectively cope with these feelings.

"For example, Wood and colleagues found that students in the midst of exams had less willpower and motivational energy, reverting to habits they had

developed earlier in the semester," author Amy Novotney said in her article from the American Psychological Association.

She added that those who tended to eat a healthy breakfast stuck with this behavior even under stress, while those who reported often eating an unhealthy breakfast during non-exam weeks continued to do so during exams.

Another article in the New York Times examined the impact of smartphones on a persons’ anxiety, stress and ability to focus.

According to the author of the article Catherine Price, the use of cell phones increases cortisol, a hormone released into the body as a stress response. Ultimately, excessive release of cortisol and chronic stress can result in a shorter life span — all because everyone’s eyes and minds are glued, possibly addicted to phones.

According to Price, the average American spends four hours a day staring at their smartphone and keeps it within arm’s reach nearly all the time, according to a tracking app called Moment.

The result, as Google has noted in a report, is that "mobile devices loaded with social media, email and news apps" create "a constant sense of obligation, generating un-

intended personal stress."

Smartphones cause an increase in multiple types of stress which people can never fully step away from because for most people phones are just an arm's length away. It serves as a distraction when trying to focus on studying and learning, compounded by all the other distractions that come along.

The Washington Post has also examined the place in which stress and academia intersect.

Written by Anthony Cody the study examines the way negative stress impacts students at all ages. It is important to draw the line between negative stress — which discourages or disenfranchises — and positive stress, which motivates.

"These findings suggest that stress — in the form of negative classroom conditions — negatively affects the way children pay attention in class, stay on task and are able to move from one activity to another," according to the article.

This case study is geared toward younger students. However, these conditions impact those who are learning regardless of their age. High levels of negative stress — according to this article — cause problems outside of just school and academia including social interactions, emotional stability and motivation.
