by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo Mike Mares sings and plays acoustic guitar for local group The Noms. The eight-month-old band is recording an album and plays a self-described “acoustic pop” that led to victory in UNM’s last Battle of the Bands. Daily Lobo: So what are you doing today? Mike Mares: Today we just had a little writing retreat and practice and hanging out and eating burritos.
Dear Editor, Recently, state legislators engaged in a public debate concerning the Hispanic Education Act.
New Pap Test recommendations Ladies, this one is for you, and it is good news. You have probably heard of a Pap smear.
The UNM community has faced tough subjects lately, including looming budget cuts and the nationwide recession, but one UNM department decided it is the perfect time to chase away stress with some kindness. This week is Random Acts of Kindness Week at UNM, and some students think that it is an opportunity to spread good deeds around campus. “I think people can always be kinder.
A woman claiming to have been stabbed ran into a classroom in the Anthropology Building around 7:55 p.m., according to several witnesses who were in the classroom. Student Mike Johnson, who was visibly shaken, said a woman ran into his music appreciation class clutching her throat and asking for help. “I set my set stuff down and this poor lady walks in.
Some quick calculations done my Freshman year showed me that if I gave 50 cents to everyone who asked for change, I would quickly go broke. In three years of living here, it struck me that Albuquerque seems to have a much larger homeless population than other cities.

Editor, In response to the column written by Zach Gould, entitled “The bandwagon of devastation relief donations,” published on Feb.
It was the tale of two teams on Valentine’s Day at the UNM Tennis Complex. Just like the literary classics, there was love, loss and drama on court Sunday for the UNM men’s and women’s tennis teams. While the No.
A UNM office released a survey last week that contradicts common perceptions regarding substance abuse among college students. The Campus Office of Substance Abuse Prevention released, “College Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Use in New Mexico,” a study that for the first time surveyed students at five four-year institutions and two two-year institutions in New Mexico.
Somewhere buried in the bowels of cognition, there is a reason the UNM women’s basketball team can’t, for the life of them, beat Utah. Since the sport is amicable to ambiguity, it takes a locksmith to unlock the adjoining corridors of brain, behavior and basketball, an area that is neither strictly qualitative nor quantitative, though box scores attempt to crystallize the narratives of games through basic statistical lenses.
Congressman Martin Heinrich was not on campus Friday to speak. He was there to listen. Heinrich met with student veterans and representatives of the UNM Veterans Resource Center to gather information on scholarship programs for Veterans.
People who knew Ashley Forsythe said she was a quiet, studious woman until you got to know her. And her mother, Christine, said Ashley’s passion for science and geology showed up at a young age.
Editor, I would like to say a few words in reaction to our recent religious guest, Shawn the Baptist.
It was supposed to be a game of redemption for the UNM women’s basketball team. And it was going to be the defense that would provide a spark to put the Lobos back on track toward contending for the Mountain West Conference regular-season championship. But Utah derailed the Lobos in The Pit on Saturday with a 52-49 victory, UNM’s fourth straight loss to the Utes on Bob King Court and its second straight loss after reeling off three wins in a row against conference top dogs BYU, TCU and San Diego State. Although the Lobos played a near-perfect defensive game, it was a lack of offensive production that sealed the Lobos’ tomb. Head coach Don Flanagan said he doesn’t understand why his team can’t drain shots, especially open shots.
Zydeco princess Rosie Ledet is the saucy sassy Screamin’ Jay Hawkins of swamp dancing. The rural Louisiana native played with her backing band The Zydeco Playboys at the Santa Fe Brewing Company’s Pub and Grill on Wednesday, a minute’s drive from the Rail Runner’s #599 first stop in Santa Fe.
Linguistically speaking, the above is an example of a non-sequitur. Or in basketball terms, it’s called the UNM women’s basketball team. Expounding on that notion — so the thinking went: The Lobos defeated three upper-echelon teams in the Mountain West Conference (BYU, TCU and San Diego State). Therefore, they’ll beat UNLV, a sub-.500 record team. Not so.
As if being named the best ski team in the country wasn’t enough, the UNM Ski team added more to its arsenal of awards. Besides having a terrific performance at the Jade Enterprises/New Mexico Invitational on Feb.
It’s here. You can’t run from it any longer. The only way to escape at this point would be to find a cave and hide out somewhere in the Sandias, but since those are occupied by chupacabras or a deposed Martin Chavez (I can’t decide which is worse), you have to deal with it at this point.
