It’s probably happened to most people who drive. There’s always that one driver on the road who doesn’t seem to be paying attention and begs the question: “Are you on something?”
I recently came across a graphic on the Internet that has a picture of classic Uncle Sam and a few lines of text that read: “I want you to wake up. To wake others up. To know you are free. To think for yourself. To protect your rights. And to resist against tyranny.”
Wait. MSU is sitting on more than $1 billion? Students might be interested to know that according to recent estimates by the Detroit Free Press, some university endowment funds in the state are growing by leaps and bounds.
We teach two-thirds of the classes and do one-third of the grading. We lead review sessions, we answer questions and we help break down big classes into smaller recitations and labs. We are the personal connection between students and instructors in large lectures. We are the 1,300-plus teaching assistants of MSU, organized as the Graduate Employees Union, or GEU.
As a radical feminist, I feel the need to clarify two points for Thea Neal and the MSU community. Firstly, feminists would never criticize The State News for allowing Neal to write something, as she claimed in her column, “Women should embrace sex life” (SN 1/18). Neal is exercising her right to free speech — rock on Neal.
The space used for the column Women should embrace sex life (SN 1/18), could have instead been used for making a valid point about the need for honest sexual dialogue, and for women to come to an understanding of both the physical and emotional aspects of sex.
Let’s crawl into the conspiracy cave. Here the enforcers double as the enablers, two problems are solved with a single solution and the city of East Lansing is encouraging drunken driving.
While I am thoroughly pleased with the Democratic Party’s candidates for president, I fear they have already made a blunder in regard to the general election by either not participating or campaigning in the Democratic primary.
Good news: Meat and milk taste the way they should. Even if they do come from cloned livestock. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration stated in a 968-page report released this week that “available data has not identified any subtle hazards that might indicate food-consumption risk” when it comes to cloned cattle, swine and goats.
Tucker Max is dirty. He’s sexually explicit, he engages in an extreme amount of premarital sex, and he exploits it all on his Web site, TuckerMax.com.
As a Japanese student attending MSU, I have counted myself lucky that the local area contains many excellent Japanese food and sushi restaurants. As a result, I was disappointed by the content of your recent articles School of fish and Sushi showdown (SN 1/15).
MySpace.com, a popular social networking Web site, has recently announced an agreement with Attorney General Mike Cox and other state attorneys general to take more steps toward Internet safety for children.
Martin Luther King Jr. declared, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere,” and our fragile democracy became weaker today.
Who wouldn’t like a candidate who preaches from the heart and refuses to pander to special interest groups? Someone who takes ideologically consistent positions that defy political convention? Someone who is supported by a loyal cadre of grassroots followers?
As a person who loves both sushi and well-written reviews of restaurants, I was immensely disappointed in the reviews of five sushi restaurants in Sushi showdown (SN 1/15). I understand the reviews were intended to be small in scale — the reviewers only had a California roll at each place.
The 13th Amendment states “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”
Come on. Don’t be shy. You might have noticed our almost nonexistent letters to the editor section that’s only sputtered out a few readers’ opinions so far this semester.
Americans are promised freedom from “cruel and unusual punishment.” Let’s try keeping it that way.
Starting Jan. 31, officers at the border of Canada will no longer allow people trying to cross to simply verbalize their citizenship, otherwise known as oral declaration.
I was one of the 100 Izzone members who made the trip to Iowa City, Iowa on Saturday. Yes, these 100 Izzone members brought it strong and appeared to have really motivated the Spartan players before the game. Unfortunately, this didn’t translate to performance on the court.
