ENMU WELL REPRESENTED
AT MLK ACTIVITIES
ENMU was well represented in Portales’ Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
celebration on Monday, Jan. 21. Bud Elliott was the master of ceremonies.
Debby Parker gave an inspirational speech (excerpted on KVII TV). Oscar
Robinson moderated the “Press Conference from the Past” which
included Don Elder as President John F. Kennedy, Don Criss as Senator
Hubert Humphrey, Patrice Caldwell as Eleanor Roosevelt, Julia Rosa Lopez-Emslie
as Dolores Huerta, and Jose Angel Garcia as Cesar Chaves. David Gerig
conducted the ENMU choir, and Jennifer Poyer sang (as well as student
Catherine Chavez). Several ENMU organizations, including TRIO, Admissions,
Campus Police, Multi-Cultural Student Organizations, and the Golden
Library, and individuals, including President Gamble, Fabian Lopez,
Fred and Olympia Chino, Jeremiah Portillo and Wendel Sloan, participated
in the parade or served on the organizing committee.
WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
NOT EXPECTED TO ATTEND
Dr. Jonathan Smith, holder of ENMU’s Jack Williamson Visiting Endowed
Chair in Science and the Humanities, will make a presentation on “Charles
Darwin, Natural Selection, and Victorian Culture” at 7 p.m. on
Wednesday, Feb. 6, in Buchanan Hall in the Music Building. It will be
part of an ongoing colloquium on “Darwin and Darwinism Today: Contexts
and Controversies” that Dr. Smith hopes will "facilitate discussion
and reflection by students, faculty, and the broader community on the
interactions of science and the humanities and their importance in enhancing
American culture and society." Dr. Smith says that, “No scientific
theory has had a wider impact on our understanding of what it means
to be human, in both a literal and figurative sense, than Darwinian
evolution, and none has generated more controversy in everyday American
life. It thus seems a natural selection (if you'll forgive the pun)
for the colloquium, a topic I hope will spark the kind of engaged, thoughtful
discussion that Jack (Williamson) envisioned.”
