So Devon Hill claims abortions performed before Roe v. Wade were “dangerous, unsanitary and often resulted in the death of a woman” (“Pro-Life photo show won’t hinder cause,” SN 11/2). I guess it’s acceptable to hear that all abortions performed after Roe v.
With rich histories in East Lansing, numerous ties to the university and extensive backgrounds in city government, Vic Loomis and Bill Sharp are the best choices for East Lansing City Council. Loomis, Sharp, Liz Harrow and Kevin Beard will face each other in Tuesday’s election to fill two open seats on the council.
To say football head coach Bobby Williams has done anything to disgrace our football team or school is ludicrous (“Coach disgraceful, dismiss Williams, SN 10/25). It takes time to build a football program, and he is certainly doing that.
In the middle of one night in August, I strolled around the Lincoln Memorial and touched the walls of the Washington Monument.
Saturday will mark another unforgettable experience in my life - my first live MSU vs. Michigan football game. Growing up, I cheered for the guys wearing maize and blue - and I mean I cheered.
Saturday’s football game will go down in the record books as the 94th meeting between MSU and the University of Michigan.
Four days out of the week, I attempt to cross Farm Lane using the crosswalk between Erickson Hall and the bus stops by Shaw Hall.
You may be able to disgust us, but you can‘t hold us down. Amid all the commotion surrounding “The Genocide Awareness Project” that Students for Life hosted on campus, one very important element ceased to be examined.
I have noticed that several halls, including Case Hall, have distributed fliers that inform residents about “hate crimes” committed throughout the United States.
As this year comes to a close, it is not a surprise possible deficits and revenue shortages are looming - at the federal, state and local levels of government.With city council elections on Tuesday, it’s encouraging to see the four East Lansing candidates recognize the importance of watching the city’s money.All indications point to a shrinking budget following the economic slowdown, and it would be unfortunate if the only actions taken are raising fees - such as the $5 increase in city parking fines last year.Charging higher fines and fees doesn’t help city relationships with students, and will lead to fewer people visiting East Lansing’s downtown.Instead, the two candidates who are elected Tuesday, along with the rest of the city council and other officials, will have to think smarter with the budget.
I watched “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” on Sunday morning while I was trying to figure out who I would start on my five fantasy football teams.
This letter is in response to Anthony Ingle’s letter (“Important to see photo display”, SN 10/25) about the photos displayed outside Wells Hall last week.
The recent agreement between the University of North Carolina and Nike over athletic apparel is a remarkable and positive move toward improving labor rights.There has been a long history of Nike’s apparel manufacturing factories in countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia exploiting workers with poor conditions and substandard wages.North Carolina’s eight-year, $28.34 million agreement with Nike requires the company to expand the Fair Labor Association’s monitoring program and to disclose the locations of the plants where game uniforms are manufactured.
I would like to thank Students for Life for bringing “The Genocide Awareness Project” to campus.
Those who know me best know that if there’s one thing I love to do, it’s watching television evangelists.
For the past seven years, the ancient holiday Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, has been celebrated on campus.
I am pro-life. Fine. Each to his own, right? Yet I was surprised the other day to read that people who share that belief are right-wing, fundamentalist radicals who don’t know how to properly use the term genocide (“Pro-life exhibit vulgar propaganda,” “Genocide not an appropriate analogy,” SN 10/26). Though I can understand disagreement, let’s be honest.
Today is the day circled in red marker on thousands of little kids’ calendars. Children count the days until Halloween each year. Our job is not to ruin the day kids have been looking forward to.
Your recent coverage of college students and credit cards, “Credit card debt” (SN 10/18), although important, failed to include information about an existing program at MSU.
Like many students on campus, I am concerned with reproductive freedom. Currently there is a bill, House Bill 4655, on the floor of the Michigan House that would infringe on the reproductive rights of any student who utilizes the services of our local Planned Parenthood.
