I respect and enjoy reading The State News, but I can’t help but to criticize Tuesday’s editorial (“Spilled milk,” SN 3/12). The condemnation of men’s basketball head coach Tom Izzo in regards to questioning the standards of the NCAA Selection Committee is utterly ridiculous.
In most respects, I consider myself to be a fairly average guy. Like most average guys, I want to finish school, find a desirable job and potentially settle down with 2.3 children and a house in suburbia.
The State News editorial “Election errors” (SN 3/14) erroneously reported the number of James Madison College students and members of the college’s Student Senate on ASMSU’s All University Election Commission.
While there have been improvements at MSU concerning awareness of the lesbian, bisexual, gay and transgender community, there’s still a long way to go before true acceptance on campus can be achieved. In 1992, the University-Wide Task Force on Lesbian and Gay Issues and MSU published “Moving Forward,” a report that assessed the climate toward the LBGT community and identified ways to improve that quality of life.
Today, love obliges me to defend hate. A grandiloquent sentence to write, but humor me. On Feb.
I believe I have found a way that The State News does not need to raise its tax to $5 a semester. I work in Holden Hall, and every evening I throw away about 100 papers because students have not picked them up to read.
ASMSU might as well move its offices to Florida as the undergraduate student government is at the center of the biggest election debacle since the 2000 presidential contest. Student Life officials Wednesday decided to cancel all universitywide elections concerning ASMSU after the organization made the request due to online voting glitches and a lack of communication.
The United States took a huge leap toward working for a peaceful solution between Palestinians and Israelis by endorsing the idea of a Palestinian sovereign nation.
I am writing in response to Graduate Employees Union President Jessica Goodkind’s letter (“Union will do what it takes for contract,” SN 3/13). The union says it wants undergraduates to have the best education opportunities; but it supports asking undergraduates to skip classes.
This is in response to Joe McCleer’s opinion that men’s basketball Head Coach Tom Izzo shouldn’t complain about MSU’s seed in the NCAA Tournament (“Izzo has nothing to cry about, seed OK,” SN 3/13). He asks what’s the difference between a No.
Strong claims were made in the editorial “Not the answer” (SN 3/12). Unfortunately, these claims were based more on conjecture than fact or reason.
Humans can do some pretty rotten things to one another. That is the main reason why news makes me sick to my stomach a lot more than I expect it to. During the week prior to spring break, the nation’s eyes were turned to Massachusetts, where a bounty of Roman Catholic priests have been accused of sexually molesting children.
I was disappointed with the editorial “Not the answer” (SN 3/12), regarding negotiations between the Graduate Employees Union and the MSU administration and the possibility of a strike.
Responsibility on the part of businesses and restaurants that serve alcohol promotes responsibility all around.
I enjoy a satirical, well-drawn political cartoon based on current events. It does not matter whether I agree or disagree with the viewpoint.
Don’t be ambivalent enough to let ASMSU representatives outvote the vast majority of us who are sick of them spending our money on fruitless ventures. Why should you care about $16 of your money?
I’m writing in response to men’s basketball head coach Tom Izzo’s ridiculous public complaints about MSU’s seeding in the NCAA Tournament (“Izzo upset with No.
Raising $15,000 in 30 days is a lofty goal for organizers of annual Michigan Pride events, but it can be done.
Throughout my four years at MSU, distractions have always been present in the Main Library. What was formerly a place of study has become a plethora of chaotic stimuli, ranging from laptop computer games, ringing cell phones and coffee shop talk.
Instead of complaining about his team’s spot in the NCAA Tournament, MSU men’s basketball head coach Tom Izzo should be a positive force for the Spartans as they head back to Bracketville this year. Izzo was right to predict he would “get ripped for crying over spilled milk” by complaining about the team’s No.
