In April 2002, the MSU greek panel found Pi Kappa Phi in violation of the system's anti-hazing and anti-discrimination policies and ordered the fraternity to write letters of apology and attend educational seminars.
MSU's campus was built at a time when officials did not anticipate thousands of cars on its roads daily.
My Journalism 200 professor gave our class an assignment to read The New York Times daily until Sept.
I am disgusted with Monday's photo story "Stripped Down." It is neither newsworthy nor MSU-related.
Hallelujah for David Thompson's column contradicting the long held belief that Republicans best serve the Christian vote "Christian beliefs don't belong with conservative actions". Although President Bush consistently reminds the public that he reads the Bible every morning, does he not relay scripture to his actions the rest of the day?
It doesn't make sense that someone should need a gun while they are swimming. But an East Lansing gun ordinance, forbidding the possession of concealed weapons in such areas as the Hannah and Bailey community centers, the East Lansing Public Library and the Family Aquatic Center, is being repealed after similar local bans in Ferndale were challenged and defeated by the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners. Last November, the local ordinance was approved in East Lansing by a 4-1 vote.
I just read the Monday edition of The State News and would like to say that I am appalled the newspaper would run a full-page story, if you call it a story, on a supposedly straight stripper from the greater Lansing area. I would like to add that I am offended that the newspaper even made the whole page color, as compared to the rest of the paper, which is in black and white.
Traditionally, college students and liberalism hold similar values; Democrats can always count on left-wing students as a reliable voting base.
As a conservative Republican, I would have to agree with most of what Andrew Goetz had to say in his column "Republican Party members take power to new extremes". The problem with the column was that it was somewhat incomplete.
Too many have dyed the American soil red for us to wash away all of the sacrifices and principles that bare the liberties and freedoms enjoyed since our independence. Today marks the two-year anniversary of the Sept.
OK, here it goes. How about thinking about all those things that you would like to declare illegal. This is a totally personal list because we are individuals and we are very self-centered in many of our actions.
The State News photo story "Stripped down" was completely inappropriate and out of place.
As a former undergraduate teaching assistant for Lyman Briggs School, I feel compelled to weigh in on the undergraduate vs.
Recently, The State News reported that the young woman who had allegedly been sexually assaulted in East Lansing had come forward to recant her story.
The variety of shops, restaurants and bars which have sprung up in downtown East Lansing brings pride to all community residents - but the city landscape could always use some more diversity.
Something is wrong when tuition goes up but the power goes down. Students don't expect all the comforts of home when they move into a residence hall, but with tuition rates as high as they are now, they should expect the basic necessities. The August blackout caused widespread problems across the northeastern United States, but it was déjá vu for many students living in Case and Yakeley halls.
I think the increased penalties for fun - oops, I mean "noise violations," in East Lansing are a complete outrage.
I wish The State News was a little more responsible with my $5 per semester. I couldn't help but notice the article "Stripped down" (SN 9/8) about a local male stripper.
Every morning, as the alarm on my wristwatch drags me from a rejuvenating sleep, I am faced with a plethora of possibilities.
In the State News' article, "Students upset by new noise fines; officials say changes 'essential,'" (SN 9/5) finance senior Brad Case was quoted as saying, "It's an outrage.
