UNMG Sets Open House April 16

For Release - April 2, 2009

The University of New Mexico-Gallup will host its annual open house on Thursday, April 16. The college invites local students and the community at large to attend.

Tours and orientation will start at 9 a.m. in Gurley Hall. Those attending may also visit displays and ask questions of faculty and staff at the information booths in Gurley Hall. Anyone attending the tour who is not already a student is eligible for a drawing for several prizes.

There will also be an open mic contest, in which faculty, staff and students are invited to participate.

“While we traditionally host the open house as an opportunity to introduce local high school students to UNM-Gallup, we also invite other community members to attend. Potential students of all ages are invited,” said Linda Thornton, senior public affairs representative, 505.863.7565, or 505.979.1945.
