When Spring finally arrives on Michigan State’s campus, it gets everyone outside in the sun for the first time after a typical, harsh Michigan winter. The warm weather also brings a rise to the number of religious groups on campus.
We cloak our bodies in woven fibers of cotton and polyester each day we awake.
On April 2, nearly 150 studentska were killed and 79 more were injured in Kenya due to an attack by al-Shabaab. The ambush occurred in Garissa University College in the northeastern region of Kenya.
Could making kegs easier to buy actually make MSU’s drinking culture safer? ASMSU thinks so. The student government is hoping to talk Michigan legislators into repealing the state’s “keg tag” law, which requires the buyer of a keg of beer to register their information at the point of purchase.
I am writing this letter in response the the State News article that was posted last week regarding the poor attendance at this year’s Take Back the Night. It is not only unfair, but false to claim that the MSU and the Greater Lansing community is indifferent to the issues of sexual assault and relationship violence.
Protesting will always remain a significant part of this nation’s history, but what will it be in the future?
You’ve probably heard it from your parents, or anyone from the Classic Rock era, that music today is disposable, or that it doesn’t hold the “timeless” quality that music from their era does. While most of these claims are biased and subjective, there may be some truth to them. It’s difficult to state what the sound of our generation is, or even to make the argument that many songs today will be heard more than a few years after their release date.
With tensions running especially high recently between citizens and police around the nation, both MSU and the cities of Lansing and East Lansing have ordered body cameras to be worn by its police force. But despite the cost and other uncertainties, this is the right decision by these departments, and one that, considering recent turmoil between citizens and police, seems like a no-brainer.
By Cameron Macko cmacko@statenews.com I've quickly developed a reputation among The State News as being the one conservative and naturally I would have conservative opinions concerning sex and relationships. For this reason over my first year at MSU I've been put into an environment where I've seen sex treated as something almost meaningless, especially here where we've been voted the number on school to get laid at by fiestafrog.com.
In the thick of the semester, it’s easy, and often beneficial, to develop a strict routine. However, with a repetitive schedule comes an eventual monotonous lifestyle.
It’s obvious that college is a time of learning. You learn how to live on your own, how to adapt to the new coursework, and it’s a period of constantly making adjustments. As a result, it doesn't take long for students to feel stressed and discouraged.
I recently learned this important lesson in how to graduate from college: use the Office of Financial Aid as much as you can.
All too often, it seems that we put far too much into improving our appearance to please others. We want to look good to attract members of the opposite sex, to make a good impression on our peers, to please our parents — the list goes on and on.
If ASMSU has its way, MSU will finally be getting its own safe ride program to get students home safe after a night of drinking.
The current Minor in Possession law in Michigan may be changed, and the State News Editorial Board supports the potential revision.
The 2015 NCAA men's basketball tournament was exciting, personally it always one of my favorite times of the year.
It is not just the act itself that tears away at you. It is the pressure in the chest that follows.
Let’s take a few moments to recognize this arguably could be the best time ever to be a student at MSU.
I know I can't be the only student here that hates our required classes.
Spring in East Lansing is a double-edged sword.
