I am writing in response to three letters that appeared in Wednesday's Daily Lobo, the first being ASUNM Vice President Steve Aguilar Jr. His assessment of ASUNM funding is 100 percent correct. In 1999-2000, I served as the attorney general for ASUNM.
Today my fellow UNM students, we embark on an important journey. Alright, maybe its not that important, but today's ASUNM election does have some significance.
UNM student Jessica Irwin spent much of her Sunday evening pacing through the dark Church Street CafÇ in Old Town in search of paranormal activity and a ghost named Sarah.
The UNM Foundation and Development Office has been ranked in The Chronicle of Philanthropy's annual ranking of the top 400 nonprofit organizations.
This year ASUNM has done an outstanding job serving over 21,000 undergraduate students. It is extremely interesting that the editor of the Daily Lobo would refute this claim, due to the fact that the Daily Lobo reports on and is informed about all of ASUNM's events or services that are provided to students.
Undergraduate students will choose from 24 Senate candidates vying to fill 10 vacant seats, and vote on five constitutional amendments, during today's ASUNM election.
UNM senior kicker and punter Vladimir Borombozin is having an outstanding year for the football team. He has made 16 straight field goals, dating back to last year. His last missed field goal in a game was more than a year ago. He was nominated for the Lou Groza Award, which is given annually to the best field goal kickers in the nation, but he was not one of the three finalists for the honor.
Since you have made the effort to look at the Daily Lobo's opinion page, please don't stop here. You obviously care about what's going on around you
Hey buddy, can you spare $554,000? That is what the senators of Associated Students of UNM are asking students for today, and I would gladly give it to them.
Two distinguished scholars, Stuart Kauffman of the Santa Fe Institute and William Dembski of Baylor University, will be participating in a symposium and debate on "The Origins of Order," today from 4-6 p.m. in Room 101 of Woodward Hall.
Once again the Senate has managed to show its ignorance and hypocrisy. When senators are running for office, such as Grant Nichols, they are constantly talking about how ASUNM needs to be more accessible to students.
Who knew classical music could make you belly laugh? This past Friday, the chamber Orchestra of Albuquerque strutted its audience-friendly performance style at the second performance of its 27th season. The concert repertoire included "Serenade for Strings in E Minor" by Sir Edward Elgar, two non-derivative pieces by Charles Ives and "Violin Concerto No. 5 in A Major" by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Gwyneth Paltrow sports one of the increasingly popular Hollywood "fat suits" in the new controversial Fox release "Shallow Hal." The Farrelly Brothers' latest film explores societal notions of beauty presented atop a comic landscape.
I want to express my frustration with the way you choose to "fairly and accurately" account the daily news. The job of any journalist is to strive for objectivity when reporting on daily events. I want to commend each of the reporters for doing this, but the editor-in-chief Iliana Lim¢n, who should know better, continually refuses to do so.
The ASUNM election commission's voter outreach program is continuing as planned despite the Presidential Appointments Committee's unexpected rejection of interim election commissioner Julianita Maestas last week.
This is my third semester at UNM. I'm doing what I can to take advantage of my education - that does not, however, include anything in terms of extra-curricular activities. I go to school, go to work, study, exercise, work a total of 16 hours on Saturday and Sunday and I come home to a wonderful man I plan to marry when I'm done with school, which is where I deserve to spend my evenings.
Once again, Conceptions Southwest finds itself on uncertain ground due to the Associated Students of UNM.
The Office for International Programs and Studies will present its annual International Festival Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Johnson Center's Auxilary Gym.
I attended a Veterans Day ceremony Sunday on Lower Johnson Field with distinguished speakers such as Rep. Heather Wilson.
I want to address the inaccurate remarks made by Iliana Lim¢n against the ASUNM Senate and express my extreme displeasure in the intentionally misleading manner in which she has selfishly presented the fee increase to UNM students.
