Security vulnerability plagues SafeConnect

Imagine a University policy which requires that you share access to any private computer you use at the University, such as your laptop, tablet or your computer in the dorms. For example, when you use your computer on campus, a University network administrator is able to install arbitrary programs on your computer.

Tuition used to cost $450 per semester

Hello, I am a “non-traditional student” here at UNM. What makes me non-traditional? I received a bachelor’s degree in Engineering from NMSU in 1987. After graduating, I worked for the U.S.

Harassment jobs easy to come by

Why is there fear of the job market among incoming students? There’s still a few jobs to be had in the harassment industry. Start while you’re still a student, and you will get plenty to put on your résumé. Practice right here in the dorms by knocking on that dweeb’s door early in the morning, every third morning for three months, and then run right back to your room and take three deep, morning breaths. If you’re too nerdy to have the guts for the above, fall back to more cyber-bullying, just like in junior high.

A modest proposal to save Earth

Fellow citizens of the blue planet, Happy Earth Day 2011! All over the nation, people are gathering en masse to celebrate, both in appreciation of the natural world and because they want to raise awareness about some of today’s environmental woes: climate change, saving the polar bears, whales and sea turtles of the world, and preserving those beautiful, high-definition, TV-quality places featured in the “Planet Earth” series from being encroached upon by another Stepford wives subdivision. When asked, most people would say that they support these issues (how else are you going convince that cute hippie chick in Greek history to sleep with you?) But at the end of the day, have you really done anything to help?

Get your head out of the game

When returning to school as a full-time student, I thought, “How will I ever survive taking 16 credit hours in an eight-week semester?” I was headstrong and had newfound pride in my abilities — something I had rarely experienced in the past — so I packed as many credit hours as possible into my schedule.

The art of coping with stress

Dr. Peg is out this week, so I will be filling in as the voice of health-consciousness. I’m glad to have the opportunity because I think students should receive wellness tips from peers and trained professionals.
