Because the last time I checked Albuquerque was in New Mexico, not Arizona. This is also important because New Mexico is one of the swing states this year and only went to Gore in 2000 by a few hundred votes.
This survey doesn't make sense to me either. Who did they pose these questions to within the university? Their methodology section didn't address this point other than to say they "contacted" all the universities. For my university alone they didn't get these questions correct:
Does the school provide Web pages?
Does the school stream audio or video of any courses?
Does the school provide multimedia equipment?
Does the school offer courses in emerging technologies?
Does the school stream its campus radio or TV stations?
Maybe their criteria on what consists of a yes versus a no answer is very tight or maybe they talked to some clueless PR person for the university. It is also worth noting that some schools that are consistently in the top 25 for yahoo's most wired or Intel's most "un-wired" universities are missing from the top ranks of this list. You can't compare these polls because of the different criteria used but I found it interesting because their status in these other lists sometimes directly conflict with some of the answers in this survey.

So IMO, just another useless university poll that tries to generate revenue for a publication instead of reflecting the truth about a university.
