Cool heads must prevail while a contract for the Graduate Employees Union is ironed out. While tensions mount and tempers flare at the Graduate Employees Organization of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, officials turn a wary eye to our union, hoping to prevent the worst. The 8-year-old Illinois organization voted to hold a two-day strike to protest the university denying members the right to unionize. The situation is different at MSU, where union members are focused on several issues for the union’s first contract, including quality heath care, a living wage, a fair workload, full tuition waivers, improved training and job security. While negotiations have continued steadily, the occasional spark of irritability shows up in the form of rallies or arguments, and the possibility of a strike, however remote, only further demonstrates the need for calm thinking. Not all graduate employees even support the actions being taken by the union.
The Community Action Team at Olin Health Center will be tying on yellow ribbons this week to increase awareness about suicide prevention. “We’re doing this because it’s important to bring awareness to the students,” said Olin Health Advocate Heather Bradfield, who coordinated the project. “There’s been instances, even on my own floor, in my own dorm, where people have attempted suicide.” Bradfield, a nursing sophomore, said she has always been interested in mental health issues and wanted to steer her project toward a topic that is often overlooked, such as depression. Advocates on the action team distributed 1,000 ribbon cards containing a yellow ribbon attached to a poem.

Chemistry junior Enjoli Hamilton said she had problems with her Internet service even before the latest interruption of her AT&T Broadband service.“It’s been giving us problems all year,” she said. And like Hamilton, many students living off campus who have cable modems are a portion of the 850,000 AT&T Broadband customers without Internet access since Saturday.But company officials say the service may be back on as early as this evening.“Our Michigan customers are scheduled to be brought back online beginning at 6 p.m.
Let me start off by saying, for the record, I love Belle & Sebastian. Everything, up to this point, that it has done has been incredible and holds up to any and every band England has produced in the last five years or so.
She was a long way from the sunny confines of the Los Angeles city limits, but you didn’t hear Nikka Costa complaining as her caravan maneuvered its way from Seattle through the frigid confines of North Dakota. “There’s a little snow and a lot of openness,” she said as she admitted to struggling to stay warm.
I find it absolutely preposterous this university is pondering the idea of not sending the entire Spartan Marching Band to the Silicon Valley Football Classic.

Lansing - A year ago, House Republican leader Rick Johnson and Democratic leader Kwame Kilpatrick joked about being able to share a box of homemade cookies. Now, Kilpatrick, 31, is getting his own box of cookies. House Minority Leader Kilpatrick will become mayor of Detroit in January, and he says he will take lessons learned working with House Speaker Johnson to the state’s largest city. “We can still share cookies and we can still have open and honest debate about the issues that affect the citizens of Michigan,” said Kilpatrick, a third-term representative.
