Aggie alumni may have heard their alma mater mentioned or read about New Mexico State University in a variety of national media outlets in the last few months.

Some highlights:

President Michael Martin contributed an article about battling binge drinking to the Controversy section of University Business magazine in August 2005. He discussed NMSU's effort to reach into the community and build partnerships to keep our young people safe.
Recent graduate Ted Frigillana '05 was photographed and quoted in the Sept. 12, 2005, issue of U.S. News & World Report. As a graduate of the College of Education, he related his experiences being recruited by school districts across the country for an article about qualified teachers being in high demand.
Three NMSU students had their Navajo language Aggie football game broadcasts mentioned on ESPN as well as the syndicated Paul Harvey radio show. The unique effort to reach out to the Navajo community also was noted in USA Today. The Web and radio broadcasts are the first ever college football broadcasts in the Navajo language.
In October 2005, NMSU and Wake Forest announced a breakthrough achievement in organic solar energy efficiency. This garnered international news coverage from Electrical Review and Electrical Times in Kent, England, and nationwide coverage on ABC News and several online scientific magazines.
