In regards to your piece about the closing of Burger Down, Owner places blame on tree, press as burger goes down (SN 11/1) that is one of the most infuriating articles I have ever read. I was warned not to read the article because of the fact that I loved my job and was tight with everyone I worked with, including Britt Slocum. The negative slant that was given to my boss, and good, good friend, was downright insidious. As one of the former managers of Burger Down, I busted my hump to make sure that everyone had an awesome meal and an awesome experience. To drag someone’s reputation down, someone whose had family ties to this university and the city of East Lansing for longer than most students have even been alive, is just sad. Then, to top it all off, you try to imply that the Health Department had something to do with the closure! Absolutely preposterous. I’m disappointed in you. State News, you are a lot classier than this.

Sitting in the upper stands opposite the student section, it was obvious that 25 percent of the students failed to show up, and, at game’s end, only half were still seated.

It’s almost that time of year again — after four months of barely glancing at that $100 microeconomics textbook, you take it back to the bookstore to sell it back for a few bucks. However, the professor changed a few sentences in the old edition to make a new one, and now the bookstore will only give you $5, barely enough to buy a burrito.

The current field of Republican candidates has failed to quench the thirsts of conservatives for another Ronald Reagan-like figure. Many conservatives do not believe any of the eight major candidates fit the mold of a conservative who can defeat Hillary Clinton in the general election. However, I believe there is a candidate running for nomination who meets those standards.
