Eastern plays a distinctive role in higher education in our state and has established a prestigious reputation since it’s opening in 1934.  The University has provided a quality education for more than 30,000 graduates that serve as our public school teachers, communicators, and community leaders across the state.  Thousands of others have benefited from having a higher education institution in the area of the state to keep the economy alive and the people prosperous

ENMU Alumni Association Legislative Affairs Committee members visit legislators in Santa Fe to provide information concerning ENMU's priorities for the session.

What better way to get the word out about Eastern to those who make a difference in Santa Fe, than to utilize the great alumni we have in our organization. Who better can speak to our state representatives and senators than former students who have made valid contributions to our communities and state and who truly love Eastern New Mexico University.
