What are the popular events and traditions at Eastern New Mexico University?

Homecoming is a recurring ENMU tradition that brings students, alumni, and supporters together around Greyhound athletics and campus activities. Performances, music events, and exhibitions also form part of the university's recurring arts calendar.

These events offer different ways to participate: a student need not be on an athletic team or in an arts major to attend. Dates and programs vary each year, so the current campus events calendar is more reliable than a past homecoming schedule when planning a visit.

What are the student housing and dining options at Eastern New Mexico University?

ENMU offers college-operated, coeducational housing to undergraduates on its Portales campus. Residence-hall living is an option rather than evidence of guaranteed placement; prospective residents should check eligibility, application dates, room types, and contract terms for the year they intend to enroll.

Campus dining and meal-plan choices should be reviewed alongside the housing agreement, since a plan's price and permitted uses can differ from paying for individual meals. Students considering an apartment or another off-campus arrangement should compare its full cost - including utilities, transportation, and food - with the campus option. First-year students are reported as permitted to park a car on campus, and reported campus housing includes high-speed internet access; parking rules and connection details still warrant checking for a specific residence.
