Family Dinners

Technical Communication students quickly become family at New Mexico Tech. Beyond the classroom, weekly dinners have become tradition, with visits to local restaurants or home cooking followed by game night. Favorites include Yo Mama’s and El Camino, a local burger joint and diner, respectively, followed by game night choices like Jenga and Cards Against Humanity. These family dinners are inclusive and allow for a much needed break from busy student life and academic stress. 

Family Dinners are planned each semester around as many student schedules as possible.
