    UNM AreadanceDetails

    Gaia's Kava Root kicks off UNM Welcome Week with a jersey party, the kind of night that draws every freshman who just moved into the dorms and every upperclassman who never misses an excuse. The kava bar format means the drink situation is different from your standard bar crawl stop, which is either a selling...

    César Bauvallet runs a Monday night Latin music class at Outpost through the summer, a recurring series for people who want to actually learn something rather than just watch.
