Editor, The recent outbreak of cholera in Haiti has led to a steady deterioration in the relationship between UN peacekeepers and the Haitian people.
Editor, I would like to show appreciation for the UNM groundskeepers for their hard work. I think that the work they do is underappreciated.
Editor, It has recently come to my attention that the upper echelons of UNM proposed building a recreation center next to Johnson Field.
Editor, I have to laugh at Cara Valente-Compton and the irony her letter exhibits, given that the “Zombie Apocalypse” was widely discussed in the Daily Lobo the day it occurred.
Editor, Wednesday I was enjoying lunch, reviewing for a quiz, and chatting with some friends in the ANTS lounge in the bottom level of the SUB. Suddenly, we heard screaming and thundering footsteps from the SUB’s main level and saw people running in terror, followed by what sounded like several gunshots.
Editor, I am writing in response to Jason Darensburg’s piece, “America is not really a democracy, so why vote?” For starters, Jason, if you go to LoboWeb and look up next semester’s classes, you will be able to find intro-level political science courses that will hopefully correct your perverted misconception of our society.

Editor, So, another election cycle has come and gone. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Elections change nothing.

Editor, How many of you know of Tim Osman? He is perhaps the most infamous man walking the face of the planet.
Editor, My name is Adam Quintero and I am the UNM Queer Straight Alliance (QSA) co-chair. I am writing in response to the article printed in Monday, “Standing room only in show fit for a queen.” Although I am truly grateful for the article and how supportive the Daily Lobo has been to the QSA and the LGBTQ community, I just feel that the article failed to give credit to those who deserved it and was off on some facts. First and foremost — I, Adam Quintero, was not the “event organizer” for the drag show and am not the “president” of QSA.
Editor, There is never a time in American politics when there isn’t something new to be learned and analyzed.
