ENMU briefs — Nov. 25

Student Life director honored

Draco Miller, director of Student Life at Eastern New Mexico University, has been named National Advisor of the Year by Campus Activities Magazine.

He was chosen among advisors from more than 4,000 institutions.

This is the same organization that awarded the ENMU Associated Students Activities Board the 2014 Campus (Activities Program) of the Year award.

“I am humbled and grateful for the honor,” Miller said. “This honor was a shock.

“I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge the hard work and dedication of my staff and student ASAB coordinators. I couldn’t have done it alone.

“This award and the national award ASAB received means that ASAB is moving in the right direction.”

Brittany Nielsen named anchor
