After reading Colleen Maxwell's article "Finding Home" (SN 4/2), I had to take a moment and absorb what I had just read because, quite frankly, I was shocked.
In response to the complaints about the MSU e-mail system: While yes, I do agree the system needs a lot of attention, there is something you can do to avoid the problem.
Every time I turn the corner, more and more Conservatives are standing on their soapboxes saying the government shouldn't endorse or encourage homosexual behavior.
A bipartisan bill designed to halt imports of Canadian trash into Michigan is awaiting approval by the U.S.
To conclude their undergraduate career, students now know who will speak at their commencement ceremony on May 4 — Jaime Escalante. Escalante, a high school math teacher whose story became famous after the 1988 film "Stand and Deliver," was chosen as the speaker. He became nationally renowned after his students at Garfield High School, an inner-city school in eastern Los Angeles, ranked at the top of national calculus testing.
I think you need to work on your headlines a little bit. ASMSU consists of two separate assemblies: Student Assembly and Academic Assembly.
This letter is regarding the Great Issues debacle. Really, I could care less what Great Issues stands for.
I just finished reading Matthew Wenderski's "State universities should get equal consideration" (SN 3/28), and I question the logic of his statements.
Do you know what you're eating? Imagine living a life in which you are constantly pumped full of drugs and in total darkness and isolation from the outside world.
On March 29, Spartans Supporting the Troops sponsored a bar crawl to raise money to send care packages overseas.
Every week, I look forward to Scratch Club on Friday nights at Code of the Cutz on M.A.C. Avenue. Within the small walls of the record store, disc jockeys, emcees and break-dancers come together to create an impromptu potpourri of freestyle rapping, record scratching and dancing from 8-11 p.m.
Iran just checked off No. 1 on the "things-to-piss-off-the-West" list. After ignoring constant U.N.

Charles W. Skinner's "Organization is against all illegal immigration" (SN 3/30), uses some ridiculous logic to compare illegal immigration to assault and battery.
Dear ASMSU, You've gotten a lot of coverage on our page lately, and suffice it to say, it has been less than flattering.
America has always had a problem with porn. Some people chalk it up to the fact that our country was settled by the repressed, puritanical dregs of English society.
On a college campus, student voice is essential. Be they vital academic decisions or merely trivial ones, students must be represented in all of them. Which is why one of the proposed changes to Academic Governance — namely the ratio of students to faculty on a council — is important to watch. Under the proposed changes brought about by the university's Task Forces, is the creation of a Faculty Congress, a faculty governance body that would be chaired by a faculty member, rather than Faculty Council's leadership under MSU President Lou Anna K.
I am a student at MSU, and I am writing to bring attention to the atrocious condition of the MSU e-mail system. The MSU e-mail system is the default e-mail for all MSU students and is notoriously slow and unreliable.
In Jessica Maschinski's letter "Argument against adult stem cells is fraudulent" (SN 3/29), she charges that Ryan Dinkgrave lies in his column "Second time around" (SN 3/28), when he says that embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have more potential than adult stem cells (ASCs). Can she even reason that if this were a lie, and ASCs were better than ESCs, scientists would not be clamoring for more ESC cell lines?
I am a mentor in one of the residence halls here at MSU. I am writing today because I feel that mentors deserve more respect and appreciation from students living in the residence halls. Being a mentor can be a difficult and sometimes very stressful job.
