Excellence every day. For Conference USA, dedication to excellence is a common thread in athletics, academics and in the community, and the guiding initiative for the league’s promising future. Conference USA features 12 nationally prominent, tradition-rich members in East Carolina, Houston, Marshall, Memphis, Rice, SMU, Southern Miss, Tulane, Tulsa, UAB, UCF and UTEP. This combination enhances men’s and women’s programs that are steeped in athletic success and academic prowess. Together, we are dedicated to excellence, integrity and leadership in athletics, academics and in our communities.

All C-USA institutions sponsor Division I-A football, along with several other men’s and women’s athletic programs, many of which compete regularly for NCAA Championships. C-USA sponsors competition in 19 sports - nine for men (, , cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis and indoor and outdoor track and field) and 10 for women (basket- ball, cross country, golf, softball, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field and volleyball).

The league sponsors numerous academic awards, including the Commissioner’s Honor Roll and the Commissioner’s Academic Medal, indicative of outstanding achievement in the classroom. C-USA annually awards six postgraduate scholarships, along with the Sport Academic Award, Scholar Athletes of the Year and the Institutional Academic Excellence Award.

El Paso is steeped in more than four centuries of history and culture — a unique blend of 21st century cosmopolitan living, Old West pioneer spirit, and the rich Hispanic culture native to the region.

The average year-round temperature in the “Sun City” is 77 degrees, with 318 days of sunshine.

A wide variety of activities and events await residents and visitors, including the Amigo Air- sho, the International Balloon Festival and the Southwestern International Livestock Show and Rodeo. Hiking, marathons and bicycle races are just a few examples of the outdoor activities waiting to be enjoyed in El Paso.

El Paso hosts the oldest independent bowl game in the country, The Vitalis Sun Bowl, which matches powers from the Pac-10 versus either the Big East or the Big 12. El Paso is also the professional home of the El Paso Diablos (base- ball) and (soccer).

More than 90 years ago, TNT blasts in the surrounding hills were part of everyday studies at the Texas of Mines and Metallurgy.

At the University of Texas at El Paso, as we are known today, it’s the range of academic and research opportunities that’s exploding like a supernova.

We’re putting the stars within our students’ reach.

Just ask UTEP alumnus John “Danny” Olivas.

Olivas, a 1989 mechanical engineering grad, is now a NASA astronaut who is scheduled to make his first-ever flight into space in February 2007. He will be part of the shuttle mission STS-117 crew and will work on the International Space Station.

In many ways, Olivas embodies UTEP’s mission of providing access and excellence in higher education. He’s among the 76,500 students who have graduated from UTEP over the past 92 years.

And like many of our students today, Olivas was a first-generation Hispanic college student, an underrepresented minority pursuing a dream.

UTEP was the launching pad for his successful career.

“I got to explore a lot of job opportunities at UTEP and my professors encouraged me to take on big responsibilities,” Olivas says. “They helped me realize that I had control over my own destiny.”

Today, UTEP is helping shape the destinies of nearly 20,000 students – the majority of them Mexican- Americans from the El Paso region. But our reach extends beyond this metropolis.

Our location on the U.S.-Mexico border in the heart of the Chihuahuan desert makes UTEP an attractive choice for students and faculty from across the world looking for unique academic and research

10 2006 UTEP Foo t b a l l M e d i a G u i d e opportunities. These opportunities have sent students on journeys they never imagined.

Under the leadership of our top-notch faculty researchers, our students are working on new methods for refining oil using nanotechnology; creating sustainable water supplies and new desalination technologies; and studying air quality along the border.

We’re working with rapid-prototyping technology to create surgical models. We’re excavating prehistoric villages for clues about ancient indigenous cultures. We’re studying a person’s memory of a crime to improve eyewitness identification techniques, and we’re using biomechanical engineering to improve footwear design.

And if like Olivas our students dream of traveling the universe, they can start at our aerospace systems center where they’re developing methods to help spacecraft fly safer.

With these and hundreds of other projects, studies and programs under our wing, we’re making significant strides toward becoming the next top-tier research institution in Texas.

We rank third in federal research spending among all UT System academic institutions, with about $36 million a year. And we are the country’s only doctoral research-intensive university with a student body that’s predominantly Mexican-American.

For these accomplishments, UTEP is nationally recognized as a model institution of higher learning. Our reputation for achieving excellence is skyrocketing.

The Hispanic Outlook in Higher Education magazine ranks UTEP among the top three universities in the nation in educating Hispanics based on enrollment, and among the top 10 in awarding undergraduate and graduate degrees to Hispanics. Hispanic Business magazine ranked us as having the No. 1 graduate engineering school for Hispanics.

We offer more than 80 bachelor’s degrees, more than 70 master’s-level degrees and programs and 14 doctoral degrees – and counting.

With many more programs and degrees in development, we’re opening a universe of opportunities for students.

The MINER ATHLETE ACADEMIC CENTER (MAAC) was created to provide academic support services to all UTEP student-athletes and is conveniently located in the center of campus. The MAAC is dedi- cated to promoting the individual and educational goals of each UTEP student-athlete and ensuring compliance with UTEP, Conference USA and NCAA academic eligibility standards. Recognizing that one of student-athletes’ greatest challenges is maintain- ing the balance between academics and athletics, each sport is assigned an athletic academic advi- sor whose primary responsibility is to serve as an advisor and mentor for student-athletes; to assist with educational goal setting, degree plans, and course selection; and to calculate and certify NCAA academic eligibility.

There was something special about Sun Bowl Stadium when it opened on Sept. 21, 1963. On the first play from scrimmage at the then-30,000-seat stadium, Miner run- ning back Larry Durham bolted 54 yards for a against North Texas State University. The Miners went on to score a 34-7 victory over the Eagles.

The Sun Bowl, home of the UTEP Miners, was the result of efforts by officials of the Sun Carnival, the supporting arm of the Sun Bowl game held each December. Officials realized that a 15,000-seat stadium such as , former home of the Miners and the Sun Bowl Game, needed to be replaced in order to meet the needs of network television officials. Also, as the Miner football team became more successful, additional seats were needed to accommodate the growing number of fans.

A second deck on the Sun Bowl Stadium press box was added in 1969 and in 1982 extra seating was added. The present seating capacity is 51,500. The 1969 expansion included “The Captain’s Club,” a facility for special sup- porters to the university. In 1998 “The Captain’s Club” had another facelift, this time with all the seatback chairs being reupholstered.

Recent additions to the stadium have included a state- of-the-art 20-foot by 26-foot video board, three stra- tegically-placed scoreboards and a grass-like artificial surface, AstroPlay. All three components were installed in 2001.

Since 1968 the Vitalis Sun Bowl game has had a working agreement with CBS television, and the CBS radio network has been broadcasting the contest worldwide on the Armed Forces Net- work. Last year’s Sun Bowl saw UCLA top Northwestern, 50-38.

UTEP set a school record for attendance in 2005, averag- ing 47,899 fans per game. The mark broke the previous record set in 2000, when UTEP averaged 44,715 fans per contest. The Miners were 5-0 at home in 2000, and were also undefeated (6-0) in the Sun Bowl in 1988. UTEP is 10-2 at home the last two seasons under coach Mike Price.

UTEP has played 243 games in the Sun Bowl, and holds a 102-138-3 record in those contests. 24 2006 UTEP Foo t b a l l M e d i a G u i d e Rich tradition, all-around excitement and tan- talizing action fill the air come UTEP football gameday at the historic Sun Bowl.

Miner fans begin tailgating around the sta- dium several hours before kickoff.

Before each game, Miner fans experience UTEP’s one of a kind entrance into the Sun Bowl. The Miners blast out of the “Mine Shaft,” with head coach Mike Price leading the team -- pick-axe in hand -- through the thousands of screaming fans.

The resurgence of UTEP football under Coach Price has quickly propelled the team into the national spotlight. In 2006, Miner fans across the country will have the opportunity to watch at least five of UTEP’s games on national television.

The UTEP Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is operated in harmony with the university’s stated mission and is committed to the intellectual, cultural, physical and social development of student-athletes. In particular, the intercollegiate athletics program serves as an educational opportunity for student-athletes and as a focal point to bring the student body, faculty and community together.

Fulfillment of Life Goals In the process of achieving this mission, UTEP, in conjunction with the NCAA, has developed the SUCCESS LIFE SKILLS program. The SUCCESS LIFE SKILLS program supports efforts of every student-athlete toward intellectual development and graduation, uses athletics as preparation for success in life, meets the changing needs of student-athletes, promotes respect for diversity among student-athletes, enhances interpersonal relationships in the lives of student-athletes, assists student-athletes in building positive self-esteem, enables student- athletes to make meaningful contributions to their communities, promotes ownership by the student-athletes of their academic, athletic, personal and social responsibilities, enhances partnerships between the NCAA, member institutions and their communities for the purpose of education, and encourages the development of leadership skills. The above goals are achieved through the five components of the Life Skills program. These include:

Commitment to Academic Excellence In coordination with the Miner Athlete Academic Center (MAAC), the UTEP athletic department is committed to providing the necessary tools for student-athletes to succeed in the classroom. The MAAC provides academic advising, one-on-one tutoring, regular mentor meetings and structured study hall. Emphasis is placed on the academic success of UTEP student-athletes by the coaches and the administration. Continuous recognition throughout the year of academically successful individual student-athletes and teams is part of the mission of the SUCCESS Life Skills Program. Student-athletes are nominated and receive numerous national, conference and university academic awards including, but not limited to: Verizon Academic All-American, C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll, Athletic Directors’ List, Athletic Directors’ Team GPA Award, Stan Bates Award, and UTEP Top Ten Senior. In addition to recognition, the athletic department strives to implement programs and participate in programs designed to recognize the academic success of our student-athletes, as well as thank those individuals and campus entities that assist in the success of our student- athletes. These programs include: Graduation Breakfast, Letter Award Blanket Recognition, Deans’ Luncheon, Student-Athlete Faculty Appreciation Night, Football and basketball halftime recognition, Faculty Coach Program, and Commencement and Convocation.

Commitment to Athletic Excellence The goal is to build philosophical foundations for the development of athletic programs that are broad-based, equitable and dedicated to the well-being of the student-athletes and the team as a whole. The department is continuously striving to provide all the necessary tools for all sports programs to have athletic success. There are several programs designed to assist individual student-athletes and teams in achieving the highest level of success such as: • UTEP Sports Medicine/Athletic Training Program – An elite educational athletic training program designed to proactively keep UTEP student-athletes healthy and on the field practicing and competing. • Larry K. Durham Sports Center - The 65,000-square foot building features a 11,420-square foot strength and conditioning center, a student-athlete lounge/computer center, a football locker room, first-class coaches’ offices, a separate kinesiology laboratory, a multi-purpose meeting center, a “Hall of Champions” recognizing building and campaign donors, and the display of memorabilia illustrating the tremendous tradition of UTEP athletics’ past and current accomplishments.

Commitment to Personal Development The athletic department and the university seek to provide student-athletes with the coping skills necessary to deal with a variety of life’s challenges; to support the development of a well- balanced lifestyle for student-athletes; and to encourage emotional well-being, personal growth and decision-making skills. These goals are addressed through Student-Athlete Orientation, the Student-Athlete Handbook, the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, Drug/Alcohol and other Educational Programs, and the NCAA Speaker’s Grant.

Commitment to Service An important part of college life is selfless service to the university community and the community at large. This commitment provides student-athletes with an opportunity to begin a lifelong habit of volunteerism. Every UTEP student-athlete has numerous opportunities to participate in community service provided by the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics and other campus and community organizations. Each year over 500 appearances are made throughout the community by UTEP student-athletes.

Commitment to Career Development This component is dedicated to helping student-athletes identify career goals, develop interviewing skills, write resumes and coordinate a successful job search.

The UTEP strength and conditioning pro- gram has taken on a whole new look since the opening of the Vandenburg Strength and Conditioning Center. This glass-walled structure is located atop the new Larry K. Durham Center and the view is incredible, overlooking the Sun Bowl and the Franklin Mountains to the west.

Student-athletes have access to 10,000 square feet of training space. The new weight room contains a full range of state-of-the-art equipment such as power lift multi-racks, hammer strength plate-loaded machines and related conditioning apparatus which make the facility a premier setting for intense train- ing. Because of its size and amenities the strength and conditioning center rivals any in Division I athletics.

Included in the new weight room are: • 22 Power Lift multi-rack power sta- tions • Sixty-six Olympic and power bar- bells • Over 17,000 lbs. of free weight • 22 Hammer Strength machines • Uesaka multi-level plyometric boxes and Dyna-max medicine balls • Various other Body Master and Power Lift equipment Compliance Guide To The NCAA Rules For Alumni, Faculty And Friends “Institutional control” of athletics is a fundamental require- • Notify our coaches about prospects that may be strong addi- ment of NCAA legislation.

With 46 letterwinners returning -- including 23 who have started games -- the Miners are pursuing a Conference USA championship that eluded them a year ago. UTEP was 8-1 and ranked 24th in the Associated Press top-25 poll following a 45-0 blanking of Texas Southern on Nov. 12. But the Miners, victimized by injuries to several key players, lost their last three games, including a 45-13 setback to Mid-American Conference West Division co-champion Toledo in the GMAC Bowl. UTEP hopes to match the 2005 team by getting off to a fast start. It won’t be easy against a non-conference schedule that is far more demanding than last year. The Miners will open the 2006 campaign on Thursday, Aug. 31 at San Diego State in a nationally televised (CSTV) game. The Aztecs are coming off a five-win season but will have the element of surprise in their favor with a new head coach, former offensive coordinator Chuck Long. The Miners will host perennial Big 12 power Texas Tech on Sept. 9 in an intriguing matchup of teams that can light up the scoreboard. UTEP will play consecutive rivalry games on Sept. 23 and Sept. 30 versus New Mexico and New Mexico State. The Miners will make their first trip to Albuquerque since 2001 before welcoming their I-10 neighbors, the Aggies, to El Paso once again. UTEP’s first two Conference USA games are at home against SMU and Tulane. The Miners will also face Rice and Memphis in the Sun Bowl, where they have posted a 10-2 record under coach Mike Price. Last year UTEP set school records for total home attendance (287,394) and average home attendance (47,899). UTEP’s C-USA road schedule includes dates with 2005 bowl teams Houston and Tulsa, as well as UAB and Marshall.

Head Coach Puget Sound ‘69 Third Season at UTEP

When Mike Price took over as UTEP’s head football coach on Dec. 21, 2003, few doubted his ability to reverse the fortunes of a program coming off three straight two-win seasons. The question mark, however, was how quickly Price could work his magic. Two years into his tenure with the Miners, the answer is a resound- ing IMMEDIATELY. Consider that in 2005 UTEP achieved a pair of feats for the first time in over 50 years -- winning eight games and earning bowl bids in back-to-back seasons. UTEP has racked up 16 wins under Price, the second-most victories in a two-year stretch in school history. The Miners are gunning for an unprecedented third straight bowl invitation this fall. The 2005 Miners rated ninth nationally in passing offense (300.6 ypg), 31st in total offense (422.8 ypg), and 33rd in passing efficiency (136.82) and scoring offense (31.8 ppg). In its first year as a mem- ber of Conference USA, UTEP led the league in passing offense and ranked second in scoring offense. Ten Miners earned all-confer- ence accolades in both 2004 and 2005. In 2004, linebacker Robert Rodriguez was chosen the Western Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year. Highlights from the 2005 season included UTEP setting a school record for consecutive home wins with nine. The Miners shattered school records for to- tal home attendance (287,394) and average home attendance (47,899). UTEP has been a dominant force in the friendly confines of the Sun Bowl under Price, posting a 10-2 record. Among UTEP’s 2005 home vic- tims was eventual Conference USA champion Tulsa. For the second consecutive year, UTEP earned top-25 na- tional rankings in both polls in the month of November after starting the season 8-1. Nine of the Miners’ 12 games were carried on national television, including four on ESPN networks.

It seems like you are planning to make this your home for a while. My wife Joyce and I love it here, and we plan on staying for as long as El Paso wants us.

What makes UTEP and El Paso such a special place both for yourself and your student-ath- letes? Like I’ve said all along, the people here are great. They’re warm, appreciative of what we’re doing, friendly, polite, family-oriented and spiritually strong. The weather is fantastic here. The size of the community is perfect -- not too big and not too small. I love the Spanish culture, and of course the Mexican food is to die for. Combine those things with good football, and you’ve got paradise for Mike Price or a student-athlete. The other positive for student-athletes is that we’re the only game in town. We are the team of everyone in El Paso. We don’t have to compete with pro teams or other universities.

University President ‘61 35th Year at UTEP

UTEP President Diana Natalicio says the university’s achievements demonstrate that there does not have to be a trade-off between ac- cess and excellence. “We set off on our own path to demonstrate that access and excellence are not only compatible in a setting like UTEP, they are reciprocally beneficial and essential to both our local success and our national reputation,” Natalicio says. “And we achieved this recognition by being true to a mission that has focused on creating top-quality educational opportunities for the residents of the Paso del Norte region.” In fact, Hispanic Outlook in Higher Education magazine recently ranked UTEP among the top three universities in the nation in edu- cating Hispanics, and among the top 10 in awarding undergraduate and graduate degrees to Hispanics. This success and recognition continues to grow under Natalicio’s leadership. Natalicio first arrived at UTEP as a faculty member in 1971, and was later named chair of the Department of Modern Languages, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and vice president for academic affairs. She was named the university’s first woman president in 1988, and has since embraced the university’s mission of providing access and excellence as the driving force behind its achievements. “We have learned that playing the hand we are dealt, rather than wishing for another set of cards, is the key to our success,” she UTEP President Dr. Diana Natalicio with coach Mike Price, who has put the says. Miner football program on the national map over the last two years.

Through her unwavering passion and dedication, Natalicio has led UTEP through nearly two decades of its most notable growth.

during her distinguished career as president:

• Enrollment has grown to nearly 20,000 students, about 90 percent of whom are from this region, and more than 70 percent of them Hispanic • Annual budget has tripled to $240 million • Research expenditures have grown from less than $5 million to $36 million annually, ranking us among the top three academic institutions in the UT System in research spending • Doctoral programs have grown from one to 14, with more in development

Natalicio says the years ahead hold much more success for the university. “We are creating new trails, rather than walking on well-trodden paths,” she says. “To be sure, such trail blazing presents some ad- ditional risks, but it is a far more interesting journey, with far greater potential benefits.” Natalicio’s role as a leader in higher education goes beyond UTEP, however.
