Oct. 1 was a big day in American health care history, the day the online insurance marketplaces opened up under the Affordable Care Act. From now until March 31, 2014, you can go online to healthcare.gov and shop for the plan that fits you best. There is a lot of information out there, I know, and I don’t mean to overload you.
First off, I’d like to congratulate the Lobo football team on its 66-17 victory over NMSU. The game sold out of student tickets, which is something that hasn’t been seen in quite some time. Together, let’s make it a goal to sell out of student tickets for every sporting event.
Angelica Torrez is just another face on campus to most who see her. However, getting to know her, she is so much more than that; she’s smiley and happy, always chatting with anyone interested in sharing a moment with her. She’s never alone, constantly surrounded by friends and always so happy to be alive.
We all know what rejection feels like. Some of us even know what rejection looks like. The cashier at Smith’s knows I have been rejected when she scans bottles of white wine, Pull n’ Peel Twizzlers and Milano cookies.
We prayed for rain and then we prayed for it to stop. Drought has been an increasing reality of New Mexicans’ existence over the past few years.

Are you a student at UNM West with a deep love for Rio Rancho who has a problem with authority and knows AP style? If you are, we crave you. And not in that creepy way.
Do you consider yourself a “hopeless romantic”? Why? What does it actually mean? It has been said that when one door closes, another one opens. But a few weeks after I stopped seeing Phillip, I couldn’t find a new door, and started to lose hope in the possibility of love this semester.
I’m here today to discuss one of the classic debates of our time: that of AC/DC. Now, you can put away your Angus Young signature edition Gibson guitar and your turntable. I’m talking about alternating current versus direct current
“After Raymond died, some people thought I should get over it. But you never get over the death of a child,” Elaine Plotkin told me. Elaine’s son Raymond was a freshman at UNM in the fall of 2009, the year the H1N1 flu took the nation by surprise.
Everyone knows that faculty members teach our classes. Some, such as lecturers, our unsung faculty heroes, teach four or even five classes every semester; and some, such as those with “professor” in their title, teach fewer classes because they have other responsibilities.

When we were younger, we used to always have sleepovers with friends. Our parents ordered pizza, we watched Disney movies, and attempted to stay awake all night but eventually crashed by 10:30 p.m. Sleepovers have gotten significantly more fun now that we are older, but why are they so much harder to get?
