�ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - University of New Mexico professors are slated to aid the "(Un)occupy Albuquerque" protesters with teach-ins.
The professors are scheduled to join the protesters from now and until Friday by giving teach-ins on the "occupy" movement in New Mexico and around the nation.
Organizers say the lectures are aimed at discussing how current protests against Wall Street around the country compare to previous protest movements.
Among those set to give lectures are UNM Architecture professor Mark Childs and American Studies professor Alyosha Goldstein.
The lectures also will be streamed live.
"Occupy Albuquerque" movement changed its name recently to "(Un)occupy Albuquerque" after concerns were raised about the negative connotations of the word 'occupy' in a city with a large Native American population.
