A small public
university
located in
Portales
,
New Mexico
. It's the
Land of Enchantment
's
young
est
state university
, opening its doors in just 1934. It offers
undergraduate
and
master
's degrees.
ENMU is an
inexpensive
school
(in fact, one of the best things about the university is that they give out
scholarship
s like candy at Christmas -- if you can't get a
free ride
on your
tuition
, you just ain't trying!), but the
administrators
seem to be working hard to increase the level of
bureaucracy
, so that they'll be more admired by other, larger, more bureaucratic colleges.
The
campus
is
beautiful
ly
landscape
d -- there is a ton more
greenery
than you'd ever expect to find in
rural
eastern New Mexico. Much of
campus life
is centered around the
fountain
in the middle of the campus, though I hear the
administration
has
secret
plans to
destroy
it so they can build some
gruesome
amphitheatre
in its place. The campus
library
is home to one of the largest collections of
rare
and collectible
science fiction
books in the nation. And the
football stadium
is located, for some reason, several miles north of town.
There is not very much to do for
entertainment
in Portales, so it's best to cultivate a
hobby
(hopefully, something
other
than
drinking
) before you apply.
Favorite Odd
Factoid
: The school's
mascot
-- the
Greyhound
-- was selected when a member of the
football
team saw a
Greyhound bus
drive by the field one
fall
while the team was
brainstorm
ing for a mascot...
I had enough happy memories of my time at Eastern to work at the college years after
graduation
. I also had enough
unhappy
memories of the college that, after moving away again, I swore never to go back...
