Many students believe college is a time to explore new possibilities and try new things before entering the real world of adulthood. Some might discover a passion that leads to an unexpected major or make new friends who will open their eyes to a different culture.
For a journalism project last week, I was interviewing various people about the economy’s effect on local businesses.
Elementary schooling helps to build the character and lay the foundation of future education for a student. For some East Lansing children, however, the school in which they’ve begun their educational journey soon will be forced to shut its doors because of a financially and morally ambiguous decision.
I am very encouraged to learn that the proposal to strengthen Michigan’s renewable energy standard to 25 percent by 2025 has the support of Democrats, Republicans and independents.
This week, a collection of MSU groups brought two Israeli soldiers to campus in an event dubbed “Israeli Soldiers Stories” as part of a broader campaign of misinformation sponsored by Israel and its allies in the States.
In a time when preserving the environment is a concern on the minds of many people, the city of East Lansing is doing its part in going green, and hopefully encouraging residents to do the same.

Those of you who have always voted in favor of bonds, whose kids are receiving or received a great education, and are planning to vote no, consider the needs of teachers and kids now and in the future, not the needs of decades ago.

When I arrived on campus, I had no idea who my roommate was or whether we’d get along. OK, that’s a lie.
I’ve lived in a lot of places. I’ve lived in a house with a colorful cast of characters in East Lansing, I’ve lived in an apartment in Columbus, Ohio, with three complete strangers (in a place that hates the entire state of Michigan, no less) and I’ve lived in the dorms by myself and with other people.
Most students tend to see living in the dorms as an obligation rather than choice when coming to college freshman year.

A lack of participation from students at University Council meetings has ASMSU representatives concerned, but their solution might just be as bad as the problem.

American policymakers have had an incredibly successful track record of advancing our economic and security interests, building upon these relationships to adapt to a fast-changing world.
Smoking on campus can be bothersome to students who are nonsmokers. When walking to class, it is common for students to be hit with a whiff of cigarette smoke — a smell that can be very irritating for some — or have to walk behind someone with a cigarette in their hand.
Students going to graduate school know they’ll need a great score on the GRE, MCAT, LSAT, or one of many other exams.
