Last year, nearly 2000 UNM and UNMH faculty and staff contributed through United Way. This year UNM strives to acquire even more contributors to further represent its true commitment to the communities UNM serves by reaching or surpassing last year's amount of $1 million.
Remember, 100% of your contribution goes either to the designated charitable organization of your choice or, when choosing the Community Fund, to deserving New Mexico charities identified by United Way.
Learn about how easy it is to donate and get a partial list of UNM designations. For more information on UNM's "Live United" Campaign visit UNM Lives United.
Please help the UNM Staff Council with their "Paws" Charity Drive For Homeless Pets between Nov. 2 and Dec. 11, 2009.
Donations are being collected for the Animal Humane Association and the City Animal Shelter. These associations are in need of bleach, peanut butter, milk bones, cat treats, kitty litter, canned kitten or cat food, new washable cat toys and kong dog toys. All of these items are available at Petsmart or J-B Wholesale Pet Supplies.

Congratulations to the UNM Army ROTC for recently winning two of three categories at the annual Ranger Challenge Competition at White Sands Missile Range. The Ranger Challenge Competition is a regional competition that is considered the varsity sport for Army ROTC nationwide. The competition focuses on basic military skills and a number of physically demanding tasks. This year the competition included the Army physical fitness test, day and night land navigation, 10k footmarch, hand grenade assault course, weapons’ disassembly/assembly, first aid assault course, and a written test.
Thel competition included 11 teams from NMSU, NMMI, UTEP, TTU, and UNM. Each school was allowed to field a male, female and coed team. UNM was the only school to field a team in each category! UNM’s female and Coed teams were first place winners this year. The teams each included six primary members and one alternate. UNM’s teams were made up of 21 very dedicated cadets who have been training five or six days a week since the beginning of this semester.
The cadets are already strategizing on how they can sweep next year’s competition. Although the male team finished fourth this year, all have committed to return and keep the team intact for next years’ competition.
The UNM Women's Resource Center Breastfeeding Support Program has added a lactation station at the EHPP Office located in Johnson Center, room 162B. This new addition makes a total of seven private, safe breastfeeding places breastfeeding mothers can use on campus.
Although the new lactation station at Johnson Center, and the station in the Communication and Journalism Building aren't currently equipped with hospital grade pumps, the other five stations are. These include the Women's Resource Center, Hokona Hall, UNMH, Zimmerman Library and the Domenici Education Center.
