Would you mind if I wrote a column that only asked questions? Would it be fair to look at the world and not try to provide answers but instead, ask questions where we might begin to seek answers?
Jason Coleman's sentiments in his letter to the editor "E.L.
In "Right to abort between woman, doctor not her legislators" (SN 11/11), Preeti Prasad stated that taking away a woman's right to choose would also take away her dignity as a woman.
It turns my stomach to see the city of East Lansing continue to rake in extra revenue by attacking its students and criminalizing their behavior.
During a time when the nation is pinching its pennies, it's refreshing to know that our university's president isn't sitting on stacks of cash like others. With a base salary of $216,000 plus $69,000 in annual deferred pay, MSU President M.
Dear East Lansing police, After every weekend, I have to read in The State News about how you are really cracking down on noise violations and how you are improving our community.
Who would have guessed that a Spartan, a Wolverine, a Bronco and a Chippewa would be four of the several representatives sitting down to talk about overpriced college degrees.
It was an honor for me, an East Lansing native and MSU graduate, to have worked with Illinois Gov. George Ryan and his Commission on Capital Punishment over the past three years.
I debated on whether to send in a letter expressing my disappointment at the way the MSU police department handled the entering of students at the Nov.
The Opinion Page is ridiculous. As a student and regular reader of The State News, I am always disappointed when I read the Opinion Page.
As a Department of Police and Public Safety employee working security at the MSU-University of Michigan game, I find Valerie Fournier's letter "'U', police should communicate more" personally offensive and full of false statements. First, to "someone who has been to every home football game for the past three years," Fournier — and other Spartan football veterans — should know better than to bring prohibited items into the stadium (which includes larger purses).

In "Right to abort between woman, doctor not her legislators", Preeti Prasad claimed that through a partial-birth abortion ban, women are losing their right to "dignity."

While the words "Superconducting Cyclotron" and "Rare Isotope Accelerator" might sound like characters from a blockbuster science-fiction flick, they actually apply to a real possibility here at MSU. The U.S.

I've lived in this area all my life. I'm from Haslett, I went to MSU and graduated this year on the super-extended program.
On Veterans Day a year ago, the thought of beginning a war with Iraq was on the mind of many Americans.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas — already? This weekend, I had the good fortune of receiving a long-awaited paycheck.
For someone who made bringing dignity back to the White House a central issue to his campaign, President Bush has failed miserably on a number of fronts.Dignity is the state of being worthy.
A great rivalry makes for intense feelings. When MSU meets the University of Michigan in a competitive game, we expect emotions to run high.
Grand River Avenue is the epitome of "cool." This street is known to East Lansing residents for its unique shopping, diverse restaurants and cultural opportunities.
