As you head toward finals and the holidays, there’s an important step you should take to stay healthy: Get the H1N1 flu vaccine.
So this is the end. Again. Well, it’s the end for me, at least. Yes, I am finally taking that fateful walk and picking up that empty container that would contain my diploma — if MSU actually gave it to you at graduation.
I am writing on behalf of the Deaf Education Program at MSU and the decision to cut the program due to budgetary concerns.
It was a cold, rainy October day when he pulled me over at the intersection of Division Street and Grand River Avenue.
It’s something every college student must suffer through. Every student has to sit through those classes that have little to do with his or her major, but nonetheless are required to graduate.

In the wake of the university’s recent proposed budget cuts, a disappointing trend has been developing: the “ritual sacrifice” of university programs and services.
We don’t have time for this. There are BS 111 pages to read, papers to write and coffee friendship-resuscitating events to attend. If you read this while power walking to the bus, or are already on the third paragraph because your schedule only can afford skimming, then I’m like you.
The MSU administration lately has made a big fuss about its desire to be transparent with the student body. The latest organization to jump on this “transparency bandwagon” is MSU’s Academic Council, part of the university’s Academic Governance system
