Larry Rose III: from Fairfield TRU THE THE ROUND UP SPORTS ISSUE Larry Rose III: From Fairfield By DEREK to Phenom GONZALES The Round Up reemerges as the independent student voice of NMSU since 1907. Volume. 118 Issue 2. Monday, August 29, 2016 1 letter from coach martin Hey Aggie fans! We are excited about this season. We have some great returning talent and a lot of things to be excited about. All-American running back Larry Rose III provides explosive excitement to our of- fense and brings an energy to the team that our fans will love. Defensively, we have a solid group of returners in Rodney Butler, Jacob Nwanwa and Terrill Hanks, who caught the pass with his an- kles at the end of the Idaho game to secure the victory for us. Following the conclusion of last season, we were excited to bring in former Boston College head coach Frank Spaziani as the defen- sive coordinator, and he has done a great job of getting the defense ready for the season. We have worked hard since the beginning of fall camp, and now we need Aggie fans to come out to the games, be loud and help cheer us on this season!

In Korea, being 50 years old is called “knowing your fate given by God.” This department has been the best in the area on educating students preparing them to work for the mass media indus- try. Looking at the past 50 years, we have had many ups and downs. In particular, 2005 through 2010 was the most diffi- cult time for us. During that time, we lost our TV and radio stations, some faculty, and many students but we hung in there with the support of our alumni. Without your support, I don’t think we could make it through tough times. We get significant support, including financial support, from alumni. I have heard from many university administrators that jour- nalism graduates are the ones willing to help the department and the university. For instance, we have had many scholarships provided by alumni in the last few years. I’d like to give my deepest appreciation to those who have supported this department.

    New Mexico Local News Fund Southern New Mexico News & Information Ecosystem Assessment Prepared by: Diana Alba Soular | Southern Project Coordi- nator, New Mexico Local News Fund with assistance from Dolores M. Bernal | Freelance Journalist July 2021 1 Table of Contents Introduction - Page 3 Executive Summary - Page 6 Methods - Page 9 Population, History, Culture - Page 11 Existing News Organizations and Re- sources - Page 25 Gathering Input - Page 42 Conclusions and Opportunities - Page 50 Appendixes - Page 57 2 Introduction In New Mexico, chile (the crop) is spelled with an “e.” To folks from other states, adherence to this peculiar spelling, rather than the customary “i” used elsewhere, is probably nothing more than a curiosity. But if you’ve lived in New Mexico for any length of time, you understand this cus- tom is something on the level of a gospel truth. The fierce devotion to a seemingly variant spelling embodies layers of hidden declarations. First, it distinguishes, at a glance, the state’s brand of fiery red and green peppers from the chili bean stew of its eastern neighbor, Texas. Secondly, it’s a lin- guistic hat-tip to the state’s Spanish-speaking roots. And perhaps most importantly, it expresses an identity surrounding the love of peppers that many New Mexicans from a variety of backgrounds hold dear. That “e” adamantly states: “New Mexico is a different place, and New Mexicans are a different people.” A passion for all things pepper-related is one example of the defining and sometimes quirky characteristics that weave together to form the fabric of New Mexico.
