The statistics said it was unlikely he would go to college — much less obtain a degree. Born to a working-class family, he grew up poor, a minority and unprepared for college.
As a resident of the Arizona desert, Inda Eaton has no problem drawing lyrical inspiration from the space and land that surrounds her.
Editor, It seemed like a bad enough start to the day to see that the infamous Horowitz advertisement had made its way to our campus, but the free speech shield carefully placed on the opposite page really ruined my morning. Eighty percent of the “Opinion” page is dedicated to the Horowitz hoohah, 100 percent of which is in defense of its publication.
The argument at the center of last year’s student government election controversy took one step closer to being settled after the Board of Regents Academic Affairs Committee meeting Monday. The committee approved an ASUNM Constitutional amendment that changes language in the student government election code, requiring that Senate vacancies be filled by the candidate who earned the most votes in the most recent student election.
American Dennis Tito became Monday what many are calling the world’s first space tourist. Floating onto the International Space Station with a grin on his face and $20 million poorer, he became the first to show that what science fiction authors have dreamed of for decades may not be so far out after all.

Editor, I am responding to the April 17 Daily Lobo editorial page cartoon on taxes that mentioned me. I have paid no federal income tax for 22 years. I refuse to pay for the United State to rob, terrorize, cripple and murder millions of our sisters and brothers worldwide.
Editor, I disagree with Doug Flynn and some of the other folks who want Jeremy Reynalds out of the Daily Lobo. I am probably one of Jeremy’s biggest critics and I disagree with almost everything he writes. Having said that, I also enjoy reading his columns, even if they are, at times, overbearing.
Editor, I have to ask Kristina Scott, Richard Fagerlund and all the others who write the to the Daily Lobo with a clear anti-Christian bias — why does the term “bigot” not apply to you? Why are Christians somehow not part of the diverse population? And I also notice that there is a clear dearth of letters supporting Mr. Reynalds whenever I read the Lobo, so I have to ask the Lobo editor — do you only print anti-Reynalds letters, or are those the only ones you get?
Editor, Once again this week, the opinion page is full of responses — largely negative ones — to Jeremy Reynalds’ most recent column. Not only that, but the responses are more often keyed not to Reynalds’ particular issue for the week but to the Daily Lobo’s readers’ frustrations that Reynalds’ column seems to have little to do with UNM or with their lives in particular.

SANTA FE — On Friday night, a screen flashed behind Gooding accompanying his funky guitar riffs with footage of bugs crawling back and forth, bobbing ostrich heads and grape Kool–Aid swirling in a glass pitcher. Occasionally, Gooding stood in front of the projector, placing his own silhouette on the screen.
