and students can fully participate in research programs of the National
Institutes of Health. The program constitutes a partnership among all
six of the eligible institutions in the state led by New Mexico State
University, with Eastern New Mexico University, Western New Mexico University,
New Mexico Tech, New Mexico Highlands University, and the University

noon, Monday through Friday, a group of students, faculty and staff
hoop it up in Eastern New Mexico Universitys Greyhound Arena.
Although the facility is reserved for faculty and staff at noon, ENMU
employees have welcomed with open arms and, occasionally, elbows
a group of students who play with them in pick-up basketball
games. The tradition has gone on steadily for about five years, with
some of the employees actually reducing clothing sizes during that time.
