Student Mike Johnson, who was visibly shaken, said a woman ran into his music appreciation class clutching her throat and asking for help. “I set my set stuff down and this poor lady walks in.

The face of homelessness

Some quick calculations done my Freshman year showed me that if I gave 50 cents to everyone who asked for change, I would quickly go broke. In three years of living here, it struck me that Albuquerque seems to have a much larger homeless population than other cities.

Substance report results surprising

A UNM office released a survey last week that contradicts common perceptions regarding substance abuse among college students. The Campus Office of Substance Abuse Prevention released, “College Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Use in New Mexico,” a study that for the first time surveyed students at five four-year institutions and two two-year institutions in New Mexico.

Courtside cerebral complex

Somewhere buried in the bowels of cognition, there is a reason the UNM women’s basketball team can’t, for the life of them, beat Utah. Since the sport is amicable to ambiguity, it takes a locksmith to unlock the adjoining corridors of brain, behavior and basketball, an area that is neither strictly qualitative nor quantitative, though box scores attempt to crystallize the narratives of games through basic statistical lenses.

Student veterans have benefits

Good defense can't make up for weak offense

It was supposed to be a game of redemption for the UNM women’s basketball team. And it was going to be the defense that would provide a spark to put the Lobos back on track toward contending for the Mountain West Conference regular-season championship. But Utah derailed the Lobos in The Pit on Saturday with a 52-49 victory, UNM’s fourth straight loss to the Utes on Bob King Court and its second straight loss after reeling off three wins in a row against conference top dogs BYU, TCU and San Diego State. Although the Lobos played a near-perfect defensive game, it was a lack of offensive production that sealed the Lobos’ tomb. Head coach Don Flanagan said he doesn’t understand why his team can’t drain shots, especially open shots.

The Rosie Ledet Review

Zydeco princess Rosie Ledet is the saucy sassy Screamin’ Jay Hawkins of swamp dancing. The rural Louisiana native played with her backing band The Zydeco Playboys at the Santa Fe Brewing Company’s Pub and Grill on Wednesday, a minute’s drive from the Rail Runner’s #599 first stop in Santa Fe.

Upset at home confounds Flanagan

Linguistically speaking, the above is an example of a non-sequitur. Or in basketball terms, it’s called the UNM women’s basketball team. Expounding on that notion — so the thinking went: The Lobos defeated three upper-echelon teams in the Mountain West Conference (BYU, TCU and San Diego State). Therefore, they’ll beat UNLV, a sub-.500 record team. Not so.

It’s here. You can’t run from it any longer. The only way to escape at this point would be to find a cave and hide out somewhere in the Sandias, but since those are occupied by chupacabras or a deposed Martin Chavez (I can’t decide which is worse), you have to deal with it at this point.

ASUNM: Athletics is worth the money

In a 19-0 decision Wednesday, the undergraduate student Senate voted to support student athletes, Athletics Director Paul Krebs and the department as a whole.

UNM athletes they're exempt from everything

Editor, A week ago, a student walked into class 30 minutes late, sat down, opened a bag of chips and started to text without any regard to how disruptive his actions were — much less the disrespect he showed toward the professor. The professor asked the student for his name and the student lied and gave the professor a fake name.
