For the first time, Native American Studies and other student organizations will host a 'Welcome Back Prayer & Run' scheduled for Monday, August 26, 2024, outside The University of New Mexico's Student Union Building.
Presented by The Kiva Club, UNM Native American Studies and Indigenous Research Group (NASIRG), and the Society of Native American Graduate and Undergraduate Studies (SNAGUS), the event will start with a prayer at 6 a.m. led by an Isleta Pueblo Traditional Leader to support students and staff during the fall semester. A run will begin shortly after, taking participants throughout campus, starting behind the library and around UNM's north golf course. Food will also be provided at the end of the event.
Students, staff, and all local community members are encouraged to join.
