Job fair attracts potential teachers

UNM is an appealing place to recruit teachers because of its diverse student body, Dave Jarvis said. "In our Highline School District, which is right outside of Seattle, we have 65 different languages spoken," he said. "So we need a number of staff members who represent the population that we serve."

Movie sticks a solid landing

"Bring It On" is the essential cheerleading film of the century. If you are like me, you are waiting for another one. Only with gymnastics instead of cheerleading, and a Sum-41-esque punk-rock attitude.

Too good to be one-hit wonder

I cannot deny it. I'm a sucker for a guy who can play the piano. Daniel Powter may not be one of the first names to come to mind when thinking of contemporary artists who don't rely on big bands, but Powter is getting there. The Canadian has been enjoying recent success in Europe - even being compared to Elton John - and is now playing his piano for those of us on the other side of the ocean.

Letter: Lottery Scholarship helps, but doesn't cover all dues

This is in response to Louis Schiffman's letter to the editor in Friday's issue of the Daily Lobo. Yes, free money from the Lottery Success Scholarship does help us get through school, and, as a student who uses the Lottery Scholarship money to basically pay for school, I know how it helps.

Competition lets lobo fly

We all know that wolves can howl. But they might be able to fly, too. Albuquerque will be represented at Red Bull Flugtag Arizona in Tempe on Saturday by the team El Vuelo Del Lobo, which has built a flying apparatus in the shape of a wolf.

Service beyond the chalkboard

UNM professor Shiame Okunor, who retires in June, grew up in Ghana with a passion for education. "There's always the drive to get educated," he said. "When I was growing up, there was only one university. It is the cream of the cream that can make it into the university."

Letter: Smokers are blinded by their deadly addiction

John Bear has a lot of nerve. His name-calling and threats against those of us working for a smoke-free campus prove how intensely his addiction controls him. Judging by the 200-signature - and rising - petition for a smoke-free campus, with names of students, staff and faculty, we nonsmokers are a tightly-wound group as well, but not the terrorist faction Bear accuses us of being.
