Hey, American Dream-totin', rigid-as-hell parents - listen up. Same to you, money-calculatin', class-resentin' college students who have been filled up with the "get a good money job" mantra by the first group. You're missing the ball if you don't care for the value of liberal education.
Nicolette Sheridan has every right to be upset about ABC's apology for running an allegedly racy introduction to "Monday Night Football." One of Janet Jackson's breasts was worth $550,000 - presumably more than a cool $1 million for the pair - but Sheridan's bare back could only be worth $32,500, max. In what can only be considered an attempt at inflicting pre-color "Pleasantville" morals on America, the Federal Communications Commission has again declared indecency where there is none to be found.
The East Lansing City Council shut out local developer Corey Partnership on Tuesday from refurbishing its own vacant building on the corner of Bailey Street and Grand River Avenue into apartments and condos.
Chairman David Porteous has a legitimate concern that qualified Board of Trustee candidates are sometimes not elected because they are unable to campaign statewide.
I am writing in response to Lindsey Anderson's column "Thank you, supporters of President Bush, for four years of tyranny" (SN 11/16). I will not even begin to debate you on the issues you brought up.
I really like the new campaign strategy that is beginning to develop. In fact, expect ads in a few weeks saying, "You stupid misinformed swing voters!
You're welcome, Lindsey K. Anderson. I am one of the 51 percent of Americans who voted to re-elect President Bush. However, I am a pro-environment, anti-capital punishment, free-thinking Catholic conservative.
They're 5,773, 5,487, 5,428, 4,946, 5,217, 5,906, and 5,534 - the reported attendance for each hockey game at Munn Ice Arena this season.
I would like to respond to University of Wisconsin-Madison student Shayna Hetzel's letter "Spartan fans gave poor 'U' portrayal," (SN 11/16). I have been to other stadiums wearing the opposite team's colors.
How to best hire the board of administrators at a public university like MSU? Some say allowing the state's governor to appoint board members would infuse too many partisan politics with higher education, and that it would result in a partisan-stacked board room.
What we do know is that an embedded NBC correspondent filmed a U.S. Marine shooting an Iraqi man in a Fallujah mosque.
I usually read The State News Opinion Page only to see the various Bush-bashing pieces typically seen by the reporters and editors of this paper.
Hate to break it to you, but your parents can be wrong. You may respect them - you might even love them - but they're not infallible. They're just like you.
This has nothing to do with what has been in the paper, but rather it's a statement about the campus. How one person can express so much hatred toward a group of people is beyond me.
This letter is in response to "Spartan fans gave poor 'U' portrayal," (SN 11/16) sent in by a University of Wisconsin-Madison student.
By deciding to spend nearly $7,000 to gauge student opinion of its representative government, ASMSU has made a smart move. To get the student feedback they need, the group will survey undergraduate students on how ASMSU could do a better job representing student interests.
I would like to thank the 51 percent of American voters who re-elected President Bush. Thank you for putting a man back in office who favors rich, white men.
In response to John Bice's column "Bush supporters share common thread with fundamentalists" (SN 11/10), thank you, thank you, thank you to The State News and Bice for printing such an intelligent and informed column. I appreciate the insight to answering the exact same question I have asked myself every day since Nov.
President Bush's appointment of Alberto Gonzales as our next attorney general shows that his call for unity and bi-partisanship early last week was a sham.
The treatment that I received this past weekend was beyond unacceptable. I was appalled by the fans' hostility and ridicule.
