About a dozen students marched through campus Monday, shouting slogans in support of diversity and unity on campus.
Editor, My name is Peter Ryan Lynch, and I am a student at UNM. I am a decorated eight-year veteran of the U.S. military, honorably discharged in July. I am appalled that a foreign flag flew unaccompanied on a UNM campus flagpole for three days, including a U.
Editor, I am appalled at the complete lack of coverage of what the company Blackwater USA actually does. There have been two articles and one interview in this newspaper related to Blackwater, but no clear explanation of what it does. In this newspaper, it has been referred to as a private security firm, but should be more accurately described as privatization of the military or, to put it simply, a mercenary group.
Alumnus Preston Dennard was a star receiver in the NFL for eight years after graduating, but he couldn't have done it without a mentor, he said. "I came from a very poor background," he said. "My daddy worked until his last dying day on this earth, but it didn't limit me. I had a mentor, and he's my best friend to this day."
Homecoming is a chance to get students involved on campus, the Lobo Spirit director said. "We wanted to promote general spirit among students from all walks of life," Cate Wisdom said.
Editor, In response to the article in Wednesday's Daily Lobo about a Mexican flag being taken down and damaged by an individual, I would like to say that while the willful damaging of a flag is considered disrespectful, why all the talk about hate crimes? Last time I checked, it was illegal to fly a foreign flag unless there is an American flag displayed one flag-length above it.
The UNM volleyball team ended a 10-match losing streak against Wyoming on Friday. The Lobos took down the Cowgirls 30-27, 30-25, 34-32.

What word would you use to describe a team that scores 30 points on 276 yards of total offense in the first half alone? Commanding? Dominant, perhaps? Lobo head coach Rocky Long says the more appropriate word would be lazy. That was his assessment after his team's 58-0 trouncing of Sacramento State on Saturday. Long said his team started out flat, but showed maturity in the latter part of the game.
Editor, UNM will host a civil rights symposium this week at the SUB. Students should strongly consider attending it. The theme of the symposium is "40 Years of Community Activism, 1967-2007: Civil Rights Reform, Then and Now." The symposium will provide the UNM and Albuquerque communities the opportunity to engage with experts on a variety of issues related to civil rights.

Editor, Adam Ornelas stated in his letter published in the Daily Lobo on Thursday what many on campus agree with. Having attended three other universities prior to coming to UNM for my Ph.D. - in different states and of different student population sizes - UNM is the worst at making the gym available to the whole student body.
UNM may change it's undergraduate curriculum to meet the needs of a changing student body, said Terry Babbitt, interim vice president for enrollment management. Freshman enrollment is down for a second year, but school officials said the decline is offset by an increase in transfer students.
Editor, In response to Andres Saenz's letter published in the Daily Lobo on Wednesday concerning the historical relevance of the Bible, I want to ask him for evidence. Do you remember learning about the time the Egyptians enslaved the Hebrews? How about when the sea supposedly parted and hundreds of thousands of Hebrews traversed the length of the Red Sea? And what about the 40 years they spent wandering the desert? You don't remember learning any of this in a public school history class? Right, because there is no evidence that any of this actually took place.
Every two weeks, one of the world's 7,000 languages becomes extinct. UNM faculty is working to keep American Indian languages alive in New Mexico and trying to establish a center to help preserve them.
