Some kudos to Marc Levitt ("Bice falls flat in his latest argument") for good points supporting the view that science and religion are "not as far apart as so many like to claim." After all, both put forth theories about the universe and our role in it, right?
The editorial "Clear-path cause" (SN 1/26) and subsequent letters and articles have questioned the value and procedures of the snow removal process on the MSU campus.
I have noticed a trend lately, both in the e-mail responses I receive and in the "Your Voice" section of this paper.
I'm writing in regards to Jim Lala's article, "Diversity doesn't promote better education, system flawed" (SN 2/3). Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but if they are going to be published, they should be well-thought out.

I am responding to a letter in the Jan. 29 paper ("Road salt destroys more than it helps"). Everybody realizes the damage that salt does to vehicles, roads, etc.
At 6-year-old, I had already denied my Filipino heritage. "I'm not Filipino, I'm an American!" I yelled at the top of my lungs whenever my relatives would try to converse with me in a language I didn't understand or feed me food that I didn't know how to eat.
Over the past few weeks, I have noticed a number of articles and columns written about "Ernie the Can Man." Reading between the lines, there is a completely different story being told.

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day awhile back, I read something by Frederick Douglass I would like to share with you.
It really amazes me that some folks appear to believe that the world shuts down because it is cold or snowy out.
