After six straight NCAA Tournament-less seasons, Michigan fired men's basketball coach Tommy Amaker on Saturday.
In reading Thea Neal's column "A lesson in safety" (SN 3/16), I was surprised at how shallow Neal came across.
The labeling of the Young Americans for Freedom as a hate group at first sounded extreme in "Law center lists YAF as 'hate group'" (SN 3/15). But thinking about it, it also was accurate.
Nursing sophomore Brenna Klaft is half Polish and half Scottish but on St. Patrick's Day, she's 100 percent Irish. Like many other students who celebrated the popular holiday Saturday, Klaft said she planned to attend a party for the occasion. Although she recognizes St.
I think it is highly ironic that Jessica Byrom's column "An indefinite truth" (SN 3/15), opens with an indignant criticism of Hollywood's vocal nature with respect to contemporary issues, then finishes with an incredibly oversimplified summary of a complex geophysical problem an expert opinion brought to you by an international relations major.
Not being recognized by the university doesn't keep the 25 players who make up the Spartans' club hockey team from playing with green-and- white pride. The MSU club hockey team beat Davenport University, 5-4, on March 11 after defenseman Jeff Marley's overtime goal to win its second American Collegiate Hockey Association Division II national championship in the last three years. After splitting with Davenport in the regular season, but losing 7-3 in the Great Midwest Hockey League final, the Spartans knew they would be playing the role of the underdog. "We knew we would have to jump on them early and quickly," said John Perkovich, food industry management junior and team captain.
A second-round NCAA basketball game between MSU and top-seeded North Carolina may have weakened daytime drunken tirades in East Lansing on St.
I don't agree with the editorial "YAF ruins conservatives' reputation" (SN 3/16). I'm not a member of the group Young Americans for Freedom, or YAF, but I have known members from past years, and to consider them a hate group is flat out wrong.
Winston-Salem, N.C. It was supposed to be over by now, but there were eight minutes left to play and ninth-seeded MSU was leading top-seeded North Carolina by a point.
Lansing Gallivanting to MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" and shining in this season's sharpest fashions, the canines in Old Town's Studio 1210 had a moment to sparkle Sunday during the second annual Gone 2 the Dogs Spring Fashion Show. About 20 dogs donned handmade designs by Gone 2 the Dogs owner Jana Nicol, who organized the show last year for something to do. "I was just looking for fun things to do for people to enjoy and to laugh," she said. A $5 admission helps finance the Robert P.
This has been a different NCAA Tournament experience for the MSU women's basketball team. With MSU hosting the first and seconds rounds of the tournament at Breslin Center, the Spartans have been afforded the luxury of being able to play on their home floor, sleep in their own beds and, more importantly, play in front of their home fans. But senior guard Victoria Lucas-Perry said that hasn't changed MSU's preparation one bit. "You cannot take lightly the fact that you are playing at home because we've lost at home," she said Saturday.
Winston-Salem, N.C. They came in droves, one wave of Tar Heel blue after another, streaking down the wings in the blink of an eye.

You know every team in the NCAA Tournament. You know their strengths and you know their weaknesses. You've listened all week to basketball analysts who broke down each game and region. But no matter how much you know, you can never be ready for what March Madness will offer.
First, I wanted to applaud Georg Schuttler's recent letter "Gay marriage ban wrong despite black opinion" (SN 3/14), regarding the fight for gay marriage as comparable to the civil rights movement.
Winston-Salem, N.C. We knew that for MSU to win in the NCAA Tournament, someone other than junior guard Drew Neitzel would have to step up. But if you were the one who guessed that someone would be walk-on junior forward Jake Hannon, put the paper down, go buy a lottery ticket, then come back and finish reading.
On a list of hate groups across the country, MSU's chapter of Young Americans for Freedom was singled out as the first university-affiliated hate group.
