Blogging is pretty common in the world today. People everywhere create blogs to spread messages and express ideas. They can be easily updated throughout the day and can be made in as little as 10 minutes.
“College kids don’t care.” “They are not informed.” “They only care about themselves.”
The other day I was in the Main Library, trying to study for my two Spanish midterms — like a good student — when from across the first floor hall I heard music blaring from someone’s iPod earbuds.
The word “terrorist” is a loaded one. And for a generation that has experienced the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, a war on terror and the Virginia Tech massacre, “terrorism” is not a term we easily can shrug off or ignore.
I am writing to support Kevin Beard for re-election to East Lansing City Council next Tuesday, Nov. 3.
Tulips lined sidewalks, a pine canopy swayed protectively overhead and the whispers of the Red Cedar River crawled in my ears as I skipped pleasantly to class, happy to be alive — until I saw it.

Although it was nice to see an article about language enrollments at MSU (Language studies influence careers, global business SN 10/19), the graph accompanying the article was misleading.
The fact that U2 has been chosen to come play at Spartan Stadium this summer is very unfortunate. It just goes to show how out of touch the university is with the student body at times.
What if your doctor ordered medical testing without your consent? Imagine a person going to a doctor after injuring a knee. After sitting through all the testing and X-rays, they find that their doctor also snuck in a test for HIV without their knowledge or consent.

Have you ever thought of changing your major because of the economic situation?
The world collectively held its breath for hours as we watched a balloon fly across the Colorado sky. Cable news channels quickly got in touch with balloon experts to find out what the possibility of young Falcon Henne being on board the UFO-like aircraft.
It’s a situation that, unfortunately, far too many of us are familiar with. You’re busy living your life, getting to class, buying needed supplies and occasionally — or maybe more than occasionally — attempting to have some form of a social life. You hand over your debit card without really thinking about what you’re doing.
I am a Spartan, and I am pissed. The MSU fan base is horrible. This year, the MSU athletics department has launched a new campaign called “SHIELD.” This campaign is designed to be “part of a pro-active and comprehensive approach to enhancing the game-day experience for all spectators.” SHIELD stands for sportsmanship, honor, integrity, enthusiasm, leadership and dignity.
Many MSU students were upset with the MSU Board of Trustees when it voted to allow those with concealed weapons permits to carry a firearm on campus in June. But a new bill proposed in the Michigan Legislature might anger students even more.
I know it is a little preposterous of me, but I want a fall break. There is no way for this to magically happen and I know it probably won’t, but there have to be students out there who agree with me.
