PORTALES – Eastern New Mexico University's public television station, KENW-TV, is converting to digital broadcasting by 2003. A 733-foot tower and antenna is being constructed near the ENMU football stadium, according to Duane Ryan, director of Broadcasting. The transmission facility will provide digital television services to KENW viewers within a radius of 30-40 miles of the tower.

The three public television stations in New Mexico (UNM, NMSU, and ENMU) have been working together toward converting the stations to digital by 2003. New Mexico residents have provided major funding for the tower by authorizing the sale of $7.2 million dollars in state General Obligation Bonds, according to Danny Earp, vice president for Business Affairs. Additional funding has been received through a grant from the Public Television Facilities Program of the U.S. Commerce Dept. [more]

HERE'S WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE – Many times the Monday Memo gets asked, "Just who is this Donna Gutierrez who's always getting bylines about ENMU-Roswell in the Monday Memo?" Well, here she is showing off her accomodations to Portales employees in the Presidential Suite in a posh Ft. Worth hotel at a Council for Advancement and Support of Education conference. However, Donna, director of Community Relations/College Development at ENMU-Roswell, explained that employees from the Portales and Ruidoso campuses should not be jealous and think that Roswell employees always travel in such high style. According to the Roswell socialite, her regular room reservation had not been held and the hotel was "forced" to give her the only space available – the three-room Presidential Suite where John Kennedy once stayed. At least that's her story, and she's sticking to it. (photo by Wendel Sloan)
