Victory colored by lost opportunities

The UNM men’s soccer team has finished its non-conference schedule undefeated. The Lobos, ranked No.11 in the nation, beat Loyola Marymount 2-0 on Friday night to take UNM to 6-0-2 for the season.

Roybal blind to students’ votes against rec center

Editor’s Note: This letter is in response to Luke Holmen’s article “Roybal: Students want rec center,” published Wednesday. Editor, I must say I admire Roybal’s ability to read the minds of thousands of students and interpret their desires in a manner completely contradictory to numerous surveys and votes.

ASUNM president only caters to administration

Editor, As a former justice in ASUNM’s Student Court who worked very hard to make the voice of the students heard, I have to say I was completely flabbergasted upon reading Luke Holmen’s article, “Roybal: Students want rec center,” published Wednesday.

UNM capable of ‘above and beyond’ employees

Editor, Though the lack of customer service in the UNM One-Stop Enrollment Services seems to be the rule, I would like to share with you my experience with the “exception.” Her name is Janet (I am unsure of the spelling); she rocks braces, a pink watch and a double-stone ring. I have never before written a letter like this on an entirely unsolicited basis.

No money to repair or update Johnson Gym

While none of the students, administration members or anyone on the planning committee knows if a new recreation center will be built or if Johnson Gym will be renovated, Recreational Services says it’s clear Johnson is aging and over capacity. The 7,800 seat facility, built in 1957 as UNM’s main gym, now accommodates the physical education and exercise science departments, as well as portions of Lobo Athletics and recreational services.

Student medical records digitized

UNM’s Student Health and Counseling center made the switch to electronic records last month, making students’ records safer but nurses’ jobs harder. SHAC Director Beverley Kloeppel said the electronic system is safer because it eliminates risk of illegible practitioners’ notes.

Low retention warrants more attention

Last week I read an article in the Albuquerque Journal that stated one in four UNM freshmen from 2010 did not return to the University to continue his or her studies in 2011. Last week I read an article in the Albuquerque Journal that stated one in four UNM freshmen from 2010 did not return to the University to continue his or her studies in 2011. I thought to myself, “Hey, this is not good news for UNM. I wonder what Schmidly’s administration has to say about this, and even more importantly, what are they going to do to keep freshmen in school?”

Master Plan lacks any input from students

Editor, I would like to respond to an article from last Wednesday, “Regents approve Master Plan, discuss funding,” which said that student engagement in the University’s Master Plan was “comfortable” and that UNM has tried “diligently to engage” with students in this very crucial plan.
