The liberals were out again. This time, covering their mouths with Duct tape and handing out fliers to impressionable college kids - kids who are too ignorant to see that there is another side to the debate. On the fliers they were passing out, they made their desires noted.
I have a couple suggestions for the MSU parking division. First, I'd like to propose that you incorporate a direct-deposit feature, so you can take the fees right from our bank accounts without us even leaving the cozy confines of our automobile.
This is in response to Brandon Scott's letter "Parents burden to care for kids, not 'U'" (SN 4/23). It certainly is true that student-parents have a serious burden they have to deal with on their own.
I was rather disappointed after reading the Greek Week wrap-up article "Greek Week closes with performances" (SN 4/19). It seemed to only focus on the final event, Songfest.
Michiganians are literally surrounded by water. Living in the Great Lakes state means added tourism to recreational waterways and access to freshwater resources the rest of the world can only envy. But if we want these resources to stay clean, Michigan residents and legislators need to take action - and that's exactly what they did this past week. In honor of Earth Day, Gov.
I survived the MSU President M. Peter McPherson Experience, and all I got was this lousy column. There are some things every MSU student should do before they graduate.
I want to thank Joseph Clark for coming to our Greek Week 2004 and giving us a chance. I want to thank him for noticing the good we do, and thank him for letting himself see the good that the greek community has to offer. I also want to thank the entire greek community; Greek men and women of MSU coming together this spring to devote their time and hearts to raising $101,281 for the American Cancer Society, $15,000 to Special Olympics and $5,000 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
I believe that Laleah Fernandez ("'U' should help out student-parents" SN 4/21) misses an important point regarding the university's obligations toward student-parents: Having a child and all that it entails is solely the volitional choice of the parent.
Should an East Lansing motorist strike an East Lansing pedestrian on an East Lansing street at an unsafe speed, it seems contrary that anyone but an East Lansing resident rectify the situation. But more and more, as East Lansing streets and others around the state increase or lower speed limits, local officials have very little to do with any modification whatsoever.
Ben Baker ("Realistic-looking rifles need to go" SN 4/20) needs to get a proverbial grip.
Even though President Bush has declared the war in Iraq over, the violence has not settled down, prompting contractors to rightfully reconsider their place in the country's reconstruction.
A huge thanks goes out to those of you at The State News who have given me the choice to take 8 a.m.
It is that time of year again, when nature and environment enthusiasts from across the globe unite to celebrate planet Earth.
You know teenagers today. They're crazy. Much crazier than when we were all teenagers. They try to find ways to stay out past curfew, snag their first beer or first drug and then try to top it all off with a clumsy first venture into having sex. Those crazy, rotten teenagers.
The College of Human Medicine has a 40-year history of commitment to humanism, diversity, educational innovation and the medically underserved populations across Michigan.
I feel that 8 a.m. classes are very important in establishing not only a good sleep schedule, but also dedicating one's self to the class at hand.
The MSU Administration has made decisions in response to the budget crisis that have significantly harmed the quality of education at our university.
I urge my colleagues across MSU to attend the Academic Senate meeting today at 5 p.m. in B108 Wells Hall.
In the midst of all the chaos that comes with the end of the year, there are two major dates that students should save: Today is Earth Day and April 25 is the March for Women's Lives.
MSU is not a "child-friendly university." I believe this is due, in part, to the fact that student-parents are not considered by administration on any level.
