HISTORY & TRADITION
THE LOBO LEGACY
2020 marked the 100th year since the adoption of the Lobo as The University of New Mexico’s
mascot. UNM has since created "Lobo Louie" and "Lobo Lucy" who are part of the University’s
spirit program and can be spotted at athletic and University events. For more than 100 years,
graduates from UNM have continued to carry on our mission of what it means to be a Lobo,
in our community and all over the world.
HANGING OF THE GREENS
Dating back to the 1930s, Hanging of the Greens is a time honored
holiday tradition at UNM. The campus is beautifully illuminated by
more than 13,000 luminarias. The community gathers to carol with
Santa, Mrs. Claus, Lobo Louie and Lucy, while walking to University
House to present President Stokes with a holiday wreath.
HOMECOMING
Can you hear the howl calling you home? Hosted by the Alumni
Association and ASUNM Lobo Spirit, homecoming at UNM is an
annual fall celebration. Lobos can look forward to a week filled
with events, culminating in the homecoming football game.
