Days before the fall semester was to begin, the UNM men's basketball team announced Thursday that junior college transfer Shelton Colwell has been denied admission to the University. Colwell, a 6-foot-7-inch, 215 pound forward who signed a letter of intent in the spring to play with the Lobos, failed to meet the admission standards set by UNM.
A former UNM professor has filed a lawsuit against the University and three medical school employees alleging discrimination and harassment, as well as being retaliated against for failing students whom she caught cheating on a final examination. Cynthia Lopez, who taught courses in the Master of Health program, filed the lawsuit Thursday in Bernalillo County District Court.
by Kenn Rodriguez Daily Lobo If you saw UNM quarterback Casey Kelly on the street, you might not even guess he's a football player. The 6-foot-3-inch, 193-pound junior is way too laid back. He's rangy enough to be taken for an athlete, but his demeanor is about as far from the hyped-up jock stereotype as you can get.
Two weeks after UNM's new fiscal year began, the Board of Regents approved final details of the University's budget. The figures were stuck in legislative limbo until a special session was called this summer to settle a statewide budget standoff. The final tally left UNM with $1.
Editor, I, as a woman and a senior - that's as in 62 years old - new to the job force after being retired and a student, agree with you that people should decide for themselves what they shall or shall not wear, eat, think, etc. I love the Daily Lobo. The letters, editorials, ads, classifieds and all.
by Josh Kavanagh Guest Columnist On behalf of the staff of Parking and Transportation Services, I would like to welcome all new students, faculty, and staff to the University of New Mexico. Parking at a University is a very different experience from parking at any other facility.
Editor, I agree with others who have written in to let you know that your advertising policy needs to be addressed. The mail-out summer issue has welcome back on the front page and an offensive advertisement on the back. You reserve the right to edit letters to the editor and other content, why not advertisements? You are the gatekeeper for all content.
Editor, I would like to respond to the silly editorial by Angela Williams defending the running of ads for TD's Showclub and Fantasy World in the Lobo. First of all, this is not a First Amendment issue. Williams seems to think that by allowing TD's and Fantasy World to publish their ads in the Lobo she is courageously defending their right to free speech.
Editor, The Constitution was written to offer freedom to the people as well as protection from hurtful and harmful acts by people with the power to do so, whether elected or not. The Constitution protects free speech - including the expression of the belief or the disbelief in God.
by Robert Batterson Knight Ridder-Tribune Back at the end of the 20th century - in December 1999 (or was that December 2000?) - there was a lot of confusion and debate over when the 21st century actually began; was it Jan. 1, 2000 or Jan. 1, 2001? It was neither.
Editor, I have read the letters from people who are appalled by the strip club ads that have appeared in the Daily Lobo. As a new college student starting off at UNM, I too am disgusted with the strip club ads I have seen in the Daily Lobo. I do not want to fit the typical college stereotype.
Your July 3 article on the 'Access Expo' by Doctors Without Borders on campus did not cover the panel discussion that Friday evening, which in turn did not cover an equally vital lack of accessibility and affordability of local doctors in the countries they serve.

Oh, alligator, where art thou? Surely you remember the snooty little snapper. Perched on the pecs of preppies in the '80s, the Lacoste alligator - and the Polo pony and Yves Saint Laurent's italicized initials - turned the humble T-shirt into the corporate billboard of the late 20th century. For a while there, no one looked prouder than the logo-laden peacocks who overpaid for the privilege of boosting some designer's stock price.
Staff and Wire Reports A federal judge in Columbus, Ohio has ruled that it’s too soon to determine whether the NCAA’s rules restricting participation in certain non-conference basketball tournaments violate federal antitrust laws. U.S. District Judge Edmund Sargus Jr.
I agree with Mr. Bauers' statement concerning the pledge of allegiance. While it seems very trivial, the phrase "under god" is in direct contradiction to the Constitution.
Those who know Luis Alberto Urrea for his acclaimed nonfiction work might be taken aback by his latest collection of short stories, "Six Kinds of Sky."
