The UNM Alumni Association is proud to present its new suite of internet services and national chapter pages.  We hope you will visit often, and contribute to the many areas that invite alumni participation.  Please let us hear from you as you make your way through our alumni web pages.  

The New York Area Chapter covers a wide area, including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.  This has provided a great opportunity to hold events and activities as far away as Atlantic City, and as close in as Manhattan.  Activities range from green chile events to a day at the opera, and museum exhibitions to student recruitment.  The chapter is currently recruiting new volunteers and participants.  Give them a call.
