Is Lobo Village Completely Out of Control?

Albuquerque Journal - It doesn’t matter whether it’s finals week or a Tuesday: Students say partying is constant at Lobo Village – the University of New Mexico’s only alcohol-legal dorm. It’s so bad that Noel Dawson and his roommates, along with his girlfriend and her roommates, are moving out of the privately run apartments as soon as their leases expire next month.

“It’s just too much. … It’s like constant partying, all the time,” Dawson said. “I get it – college students are gonna party. But it’s like management doesn’t care.”

According to documents obtained by the Journal through a public records request, UNM police have responded to incidents at Lobo Village about 100 times since last August. Albuquerque police have also responded more than 100 times, although some of those calls likely overlap with UNM response.

While many police reports deal with burglaries and car crashes in parking lots, others detail an alarming number of dangerous, alcohol-induced situations. Read full story here (subscription required) News New Mexico
