An organization of UNM fraternities has secured a first-ever scholarship for its members. The Masonic Charity Foundation donated a lump sum of $15,000 to UNM’s branch of the North American Interfraternity Council for an annual $750 scholarship.
A UNM class is making advertisements for the FBI. Advertising Campaigns 490, a class offered in the Anderson School of Management, operates a marketing organization called Nvent Marketing Partnership.
Eighteen years ago, a man accused of armed aggravated assault found himself in front of then District Court Justice Gene Franchini. The state legislature had recently passed a mandatory one-year sentence for all crimes involving a gun, and the man — who in an act of road rage threatened a fellow driver with a pistol — was the sole breadwinner for his family.
The New Mexico Symphony Orchestra management and the Player’s Association have taken to dueling through press releases. On Nov.
It didn’t happen in a dimly lit meeting room, and fans don’t need handwritten testimony to know what happened. It’s perfectly clear what Elizabeth Lambert did. The UNM soccer player threw punches and pulled the hair of her opponents during a match Thursday, and for this she is suspended indefinitely, head coach Kit Vela said in a statement released on Friday.
Two professors have filed lawsuits against the University in yet another chapter of the story that has plagued the creative writing program since associate professor Lisa Chavez posed with students on a sadomasochistic Web site. The professors, Teddy and Sharon Warner, who are married, claim University administrators retaliated against them because Sharon has continued to speak out against the University’s handling of the incident.
President Schmidly had a rough Wednesday. Several hours after fielding questions from reporters at the press conference regarding the Sept.
Faculty members are doing more than just speaking out through their Faculty Senate about concerns with the University administration.
Advil claims to be the every pain reliever. Extra-strength, Mike Locksley? Nothing can help Locksley’s head pounding anguish, especially considering the UNM football team’s upcoming schedule, let alone the pending litigation which he will surely be served with in the near future for his involvement in a physical altercation with former wide receivers coach J.B.
Below, for your enjoyment, is my take on what’s going on in the sporting world: MLB I wish I had a dollar for every time I heard someone in Albuquerque call him or herself a “disgruntled sports fan.” I would be a millionaire and give the whole journalism gig up. As a sports reporter, even at the college level, I don’t like to use the old phrase, “I am a fan of so-and-so.” It gets old really fast. Unfortunately for me, it has come to that point. I, a New York Mets fan, didn’t want to see the Phillies advance to and win another World Series, even if it meant the crosstown Evil Empire had to win it all.
Editor, I attended the press conference Wednesday in the Lobo room where Vice President of Human Resources Helen Gonzales interviewed “witnesses” to the “mistake” made by Coach Locksley. A neutral party, outside the Athletics Department, should have done the investigating.
Editor, When I looked at the Lobo on Wednesday morning the first thing I saw was the photo of the message from an “anarchist” left on a wall at Smith Plaza. Eager to transfer to UNM, let me say something about myself.
Editor, The fact that the UNM Techno Guy is not allowed to play music outside the SUB on Tuesdays and Thursdays between his classes is mind blowing. UNM allows monstrous displays of abortion and “James the Apostle” preaching his ideology day after day for the last two weeks, and gives local musicians the opportunity to display their talents by the bronze statues where the sound spills into classrooms. Regardless of what genre of music you prefer, the UNM Techno Guy isn’t disrupting “learning” taking place outside the SUB, but promoting good tunes, great conversation and providing a much-needed break from classes.
Victor Murthy’s column, “It’s time for UNM’s fat people to change their ways,” published in Tuesday’s paper, has drawn criticism for Murthy and the Daily Lobo itself.
Seniors about to graduate have an opportunity to land jobs and boost their resumes at the same time.
All three of the doors opened by the “Coronado Creeper” last Tuesday night had doorknobs that did not lock automatically. The “Creeper” broke into Coronado Hall and entered three unlocked rooms.
Straight from UNM President David Schmidly: The University of New Mexico “bungled” its investigation into the Sept. 20 physical altercation between first-year head coach Mike Locksley and former wide receivers coach J.B. Gerald. Flanked on the right by Athletics Director Paul Krebs and on the left by Vice President of Human Resources Helen Gonzales, Schmidly repeatedly denied that the University concealed any findings of its investigation.
Editor, Recently, Rebecca Miller’s brilliant letter brought the poser status of Minister Yates to our attention.
Editor, Yes, it’s fun to read the writing of the few sardonic dimwits who write into the Daily Lobo about things that don’t matter and are honestly a waste of our time to read, but the issue is that some people have no respect for others and feel like they can say whatever they want without any reason, and that can often offend people. I first started reading the article, “It’s time for UNM’s fat people to change their ways,” in the Daily Lobo because it looked informative for overweight people to stay healthy or become fit.
Editor, This is in response to the Victor Murthy column published on Tuesday: I agree with you that obesity and weight-related conditions are a current and future problem here at UNM, but I felt your column attacks the people who are overweight, and not the issue of obesity and weight-related issues directly.
