Make a Difference!

ANTS is now entering the Fall Semester. In order to gain new membership and strengthen our organisation, we need volunteers to staff the greeting table for Welcome Back Days(Thursday), and possibly other events. If you are interested, please let us know. A sign up sheet will be on the bulletin board with the necessary dates and times.

On Friday September 9th we will hold a formal general membership meeting, where we will discuss official business. Come, be informed and voice your concerns!


Printer Policy

Due to constrained finances, ANTS is now asking its members to use our printers only after their 10 dollar allowance has been used up. As usual, bulk printing should be carried out in the Lobo Lab or other pods. We ask that you not print more than 10 pages a day. If we all work within reasonable limits, we should not experience the same lack of paper that has plagued us in the last two semesters.

About Ants

The UNM Association for Non-Traditional Students (ANTS) is a student-run organization which offers non-traditional students a variety of resources, information, and peer support networks to assist in acclimating and succeeding in the university environment.

Membership is open to any student registered at UNM. Typically members are adults pursuing a career change, students returning after time away from college, transfer students, and first-time adult college students. In the ANTS lounge, members can relax, do homework, use the computer, eat lunch, play games, and meet people with similar goals, situations and issues. Any University student may join, regardless of age or status.

Join ANTS today and take advantage of our many resources, peer networks, and great conversation! The membership fee is $8.00 per semester ($15.00 for the whole year -- Fall & Spring).



Where are we located?

The ANTS members' lounge and office are located on the Plaza (ground floor) of the beautiful new Student Union Building (the SUB!) in room 1063. If you are taking the big central staircase from the main level, take a left at the landing. At the bottom (you are facing west) you will see several doors into offices. We are the second door (just slightly to the right). If you are already on the plaza floor you can still orient from the foot of the staircase.

For more information about ANTS, drop by the lounge, call (505)277-4150, or e-mail antsunm@unm.edu. To report a problem with the website, or to make suggestions for additions or changes, please email Webmaster: Janice Kiska.
