Hanging of the Greens is UNM's oldest student tradition and is one of the largest farolito displays in the area consisting of 13,000 farolitos. The event is planned and run by Mortar Board, UNM's premier senior honor society. The event will begin at 5:30 p.m. at the UNM Bookstore. From there, the group will carol across campus to University House to present the President with a wreath. The event will conclude with a reception at Hodgin Hall. The community is invited and attendees are asked to bring an unwrapped children's book to place under the tree at Hodgin Hall. Books will be donated to UNM Children's Hospital. Organizations can sign up starting in October!
Last day of instruction for the Fall 2024 semester.
Alvarado, Coronado, DeVargas, Hokona, Laguna, and Santa Clara will all close during Winter Intersession. Resident Lobos who choose to depart during Winter Intersession must vacate their respective residence hall by 2:00 p.m on December 14th.
If the resident is planning to continue living with UNM Housing in the spring, they'll simply leave their things and return on Friday, January 17th, 2025 when halls re-open. If a resident plans to cancel their License Agreement and will not return for spring 2025, said resident must completely move-out when halls close on December 14th at 2:00 p.m.
Additional information about Winter Housing:
During the Winter Break, RLSH traditional and suite style housing close. Residents of these halls who wish to stay on campus during the winter break must apply for Winter Intercession Housing. This includes residents of Alvarado, Coronado, DeVargas, Hokona, Laguna, and Santa Clara.
NOTICE: Alvarado hall is scheduled for complete closure due to construction and will be unavailable as a Winter Housing option. Alvarado residents who need winter housing will be temporarily placed in an available bedspace during winter intersession.
Why do the traditional halls close during the winter break?
Servicing large buildings can be very expensive! Since so many students leave during the break, it is cost-effective and energy efficient to shut down the traditional halls during the break. That said, Resident Lobos who wish to apply for Winter Housing will be allowed to stay in their respective residence halls (except Alvarado) for a flat rate of $475.
The deadline for Winter Housing applications is Friday, December 6.
