Men's soccer: Starting keeper sets his own bar high

Isabel Gonzalez | August 31

Goalie: the position that can take you from hero to zero and back again in less than five seconds. It’s a tough job, but somebody has to do it. And sophomore Jason Beaulieu has been doing it 10 years. Beaulieu is the starting goalie for New Mexico. He is in his second season at UNM, but he’s quickly becoming one of the most accomplished goalies in Lobo history. Last season, Beaulieu ended with a 6-4-0 record, which earned him the second most wins ever by a freshman keeper in program history.

Movie review: 'Güeros' explores youth with subtle surrealism

Nathan Reynolds | August 31

"Güeros" brings a frenzied drama to adolescence in a film that follows Tomas (Sebastián Aguirre), a young boy, who has a series of adventures when he is sent to Mexico City to stay with his older brother Sombra (Tenoch Huerta). Tomas’ stay in Mexico City begins after his accidentally dropping a water balloon on a baby, which is only the first of several events that set a tone of understated surrealism in the film. Tomas’ visit serves to shake his older brother, who is in a rut because of the shutdown of his school due to student strikes.

The Associated Students of the University of New Mexico has recently adopted the hashtag #YOURstudentgovernment. Yet though our social media campaigns have changed, some things remain the same. In the past four years that I’ve been involved in Student 
Government, the groups seeking our help and attending our meetings and events have remained the same. The truth of the matter is that ASUNM is here for the entire undergraduate body, which is roughly 20,000 students, but we’ve been missing the mark.
