Football: Davie sticks with Jordan down the stretch

Liam Cary-Eaves | November 23

The weight of New Mexico’s Mountain West title dreams rested on the shoulder pads of redshirt sophomore quarterback Lamar Jordan late in Saturday’s 28-21 loss to Colorado State. It was fourth down and 5 on the CSU 49, and UNM trailed by seven as Jordan dropped back to pass, running the Lobos’ two-minute offense. The scrambling New Mexico signal caller stepped up in the pocket and took off toward the first down sticks on the left side of the gridiron, easily picking up the first down and stopping the clock in the process.

Women's basketball: UNM ousts Sacramento State by playing to strengths

Liam Cary-Eaves | November 23

New Mexico relied on its strengths in the paint in an 84-71 win against the unorthodox playing style of Sacramento State. The Lobos had a lot to prepare for in a short amount of time when taking on the Hornets. Sac State Head coach Bunky Harkleroad runs an offensive scheme that keeps his players on fresh legs at all times. Harkleroad regularly subs five players in at a time, providing consistent relief for his bench and starters.

Plenty for UNM students to be thankful for

Alex Cervantes | November 23

As we gear up for the holidays, people often ask us what we are thankful for, and that is such a loaded question. It’s hard, because there are two ways to look at almost everything as a college student: I can be unhappy that on a Saturday evening I am writing an article instead of celebrating my friend’s birthday, or I can be thankful because I have a warm home to be working from.

Football: Lobos can't stop Rams offense

Thomas Romero-Salas | November 22

New Mexico’s defense still doesn’t have an answer for Colorado State. For the third straight year, the Rams' offense overwhelmed the Lobos in a 28-21 loss at University Stadium Saturday in front of 21,642 fans. CSU racked up 485 total yards of offense, didn’t punt once, and all but one of the Rams' drives ended in UNM territory.

Football: Lobos eye spot in MW Championship game

Thomas Romero-Salas | November 20

New Mexico has higher aspirations after earning its first bowl berth in nearly a decade. The Lobos next goal is a simple one: reach the Mountain West Championship game. That goal is well within reach for UNM after upsetting Utah State and Boise State in back-to-back weeks. UNM needs just two more home wins in order to earn a spot in the conference title match.

Men's basketball: Williams remains positive despite career-ending diagnosis

J.R. Oppenheim | November 20

Even with the revelation that he will never play competitive basketball again, Devon Williams kept a smile on his face Thursday afternoon. Williams, a forward on the New Mexico men’s basketball team, addressed the media for the first time Thursday after hearing a recommendation that he stop playing basketball due to congenital spinal stenosis. He remained positive about his situation, repeatedly saying he was blessed throughout the press conference. “I'm feeling better,” Williams said. “I'm starting to heal. It's not really hurting as much as the initial impact. I've been recovering.”

Mizzou's racial tensions reflect those felt at UNM

Matthew Narvaiz | November 20

People from across the United States, and the world, have witnessed the recent events at the University of Missouri: students from Mizzou’s campus protesting for the removal of university president Timothy M. Wolfe for acting passively towards racially-charged incidents on campus. After a hunger strike by a graduate assistant at the university, and constant pressure from students and university football players alike, he eventually stepped down from his position. UNM has also experienced racial tension on campus, but the administration acted differently.

UNM School of Law rated 6th best for value

Denicia Aragon | November 20

The National Jurist Magazine ranked the UNM School of Law sixth best in the nation for best value, based primarily on value of education. Other factors included the amount of debt students take on post-graduation, cost of living and graduate employment rate. UNM has made the top 20 on the list eight times since 2007, improving their ranking from 11th over that span in the process.

UNM faculty members' new research could alter our understanding of climate change

Fin Martinez | November 20

The work of two UNM faculty members may redefine the procedures and concept of environmental conservation by comparing changes that occurred after the last ice age to the changes we face today. Felisa Smith, a biology professor, and Melissa Pardi, a biology doctoral candidate, have contributed to a series of research that addresses the environmental changes that occurred after the megafauna extinction of the Pleistocene epoch. Smith's and Pardi’s research is comprised of computer models based on fossil distribution of Pleistocene predators in different environments and core samples which model the effects the Pleistocene extinction had on ecosystems.

Football: Team calls on fans to fill the stands

Thomas Romero-Salas | November 19

It’s no secret that attendance at New Mexico football games has been lackluster. In recent memory, the Lobos haven’t given fans much reason to show up to University Stadium. Not until this season, at least. With the Lobos two wins away from earning a spot in the Mountain West Championship game, UNM Vice President for Athletics Paul Krebs wrote an open letter to fans imploring them to attend the final two home games of the season.

Volleyball: New Mexico seniors turn out for final home game

Liam Cary-Eaves | November 19

Wednesday night couldn’t have ended more fittingly as UNM fans bid farewell to the three volleyball seniors in a 3-0 sweep over Utah State. Facing match point, senior setter Hannah Johnson lofted up a ball to fellow senior middle blocker Skye Gullatt who dropped the ball on the hardwood for the final action of the 2015 season in Johnson Center. While the Lobos have two remaining games on their schedule, UNM’s home court will be absent from action until next fall.

Letter: Refusing to take in refugees will only compound the related problems

November 19

Gov. Susana Martinez wants to refuse to take any Syrian refugees until they have been fully vetted to ensure that they are not terrorists. Muslims are not ISIS: They are not, in fact, terrorists any more than Christians are the KKK or the Catholics of old were the Spanish Inquisition. Refugees coming from the Middle East are running from the same terrorists that you are afraid of. I am sure Martinez realizes this, but I do not think she understands the implication of letting these refugees set up camps elsewhere. Refugee camps are breeding grounds for crime, disease and poverty, and camps are certainly where the 10,000 refugees that Martinez wants to refuse will end up.

UNM community reflects on terrorist attacks in Paris and elsewhere

Sayyed Shah | November 19

Marvinn Croizeau, a non-degree status exchange student at UNM from France, was sitting in his room listening to live coverage of the soccer match between France and Germany on his radio when he heard explosions. Initially, he thought some youngsters were using fire crackers near the stadium to enjoy the match. But then he suddenly received a notification on his phone that “the stadium (was being) evacuated.” “To my devastation, it was François Hollande, the French president, who was escorted from the stadium,” said Croizeau. “I suddenly realized that something was terribly wrong.”

Letter: Many regulations hurt new businesses instead of protecting human rights

November 19

I’d like to take a moment to respond to a recent letter that claimed that regulations don’t kill jobs. It is easy to look at regulations as ensuring that people are not exploited and that human rights are not violated. Regulations that protect child laborers and worker safety are ideas that few could ever be opposed to. The reality, though, is that most regulations go far beyond that noble purpose. There are 103 million words in the Code of Federal Regulations. Are all of those addressing child labor and emergency exits? No, they aren’t.

Group to host Shakespeare workshop

Imani Lambert | November 19

Snow, rain, finals week and love hang in the air as the semester takes a slow bow. Tabitha Endriguez decided to add some Shakespeare to the table. Endriguez, coordinator of the book club Sex and Shakespeare, said she began the literary group to bring together people who have a passion for Shakespeare's more intimate works. From Nov. 22 through Nov. 25, Endriguez will expand her love of Shakespeare to include a Sex and Shakespeare: Venus and Adonis workshop. “I’ve read Venus and Adonis seven times. I fell in love with the poem,” she said.

Proposal: Online class fee adjustment will account for UNM Learn

Jyllian Roach and Denicia Aragon | November 19

For 15 years, every online class taken at UNM has a delivery fee of $100. But after Friday’s Board of Regents meeting, that fee may change — and not just for students taking online courses. Vice Provost of Extended Learning Monica Orozco Obando and Associate Vice President of the Office of Planning, Budget and Analysis Andrew Cullen will propose an end to the delivery fee for all online classes at UNM. What would replace it is a mandatory fee that all students would pay each semester, regardless of their enrollment in online courses.
