This letter is in response to Eva Bohler's comments on John Bice's column regarding the Ten Commandments ("Columnist wrong in religious debate"). I can't help noticing that many Christians keep citing their own "persecution" (the inability to have school prayer) as a reason for keeping elements of Christianity such as the Ten Commandments public.
MSU and The Ohio State University are getting a clean slate along with the rest of the nation's universities by taking a new look at applications and policies post-U.S.
Year after year, the students who live on campus are denied the opportunity to watch our beloved Spartan football team when the game is televised on ESPN2.
Outfitted in black, with education as a weapon, members of the lesbian, bisexual, gay and transgender community took to the streets this week to promote pride and understanding at MSU.
The column "Death in the family doesn't mean the memories can't live on" hit home for me.
This is in response to Dale Hitchcock's letter "Uniforms without names need to go". The removal of the names goes along with coaching genius Joe Paterno's belief that football is a team sport and should not single out certain athletes.
The State News can always be counted on for extensive MSU sports coverage. I found Monday's article demanding more noise from MSU football fans especially important ("Fans can't just come to games, need to be louder"), along with the blow-by-blow analysis of MSU's overwhelming defeat of the weakest football team in the Big Ten.
It's the question all seniors, or super-seniors, fear the most: "What do you plan to do once you graduate?" I despise this question, not just because I have no answer, but because the mere mention of it makes me feel I like I should have the answer.
This letter is in response to the letter to the editor by Eva Bohler"Columnist wrong in religious debate". As a freethinker, I found her arrogance and ignorance on the issue offensive.
The people of California replaced Gray Davis with Arnold Schwarzenegger, the "Terminator," and will have to live with that decision. Their dissatisfaction with Davis led them to elect someone from the opposite end of the spectrum.
This is in regard to the cartoon drawn about the pope (SN 10/6). First, it took me and four other people at least 20 minutes to figure out what the pope was saying in Latin.
Some people don't know when to say when. For their own safety, it's about time Michigan joined in the fight to stop hazing.
How refreshing it was to see Nate Allen's cartoon in The State News on Monday. I'm glad that with all the problems and issues in the world, there's still time to make a crack at the Pope.
When I first started to read Dale Hitchcock's letter to the editor "Uniforms without names need to go" (SN 10/3), I found it very amusing, but when I realized that he was being serious about the situation with the new uniforms, I felt sad for his na
The annual East Lansing primary election is on the chopping block and we're hoping voters swing the hatchet.
This season, the MSU football team is looking for an identity. When head coach John L. Smith first came to MSU, he noted that MSU had a lot of good football players, but not a good football team.
We are writing in response to Dale Hitchcock's letter "Uniforms without names need to go" (SN 10/3). Hitchcock's notion that the university has taken the names off of the football players' uniforms to sell more programs is asinine.
In response to Rachel Burling's comment ("New station music doesn't have 'Edge'" SN 9/25) that The Edge was the only station around that played "this awesome mix" of good new and old music, I would like to ask, what about our dear old campus radio station, The Impact?
The quality of education makes quality of life in this day and age. But the federal government seems to have different expectations for the future of this generation and the nation. Future doctors, lawyers, teachers and even economists of our nation could be forced to forfeit their college degree because their goals are undermined by reductions in state funding and grants for higher education.
It all started over a package of frozen spinach. I was in the checkout line at the grocery store, watching in amazement as the man behind the scanner whipped my produce down the line faster than I could comprehend.
