Let me just tell you right now - karma is out there. It is real and it will get you. What you do to others will come back and make you a victim.
President Clinton’s visit to campus is a credit to the university and its accomplishments. Clinton will speak at Breslin Student Events Center today to honor the men’s basketball team’s NCAA Championship and reflect on his presidency.
As New Year’s Eve 2001 drew closer, I came across an interesting story in the Detroit Free Press that got me thinking.
The meaning of a new year is different for a lot of people. For most, it is a time for clean slates, and the ultimate time to stop bad habits and better ourselves.
I have always been a devout fan of hip-hop music. Throughout the years, I have seen and heard much negative publicity surrounding it.
Uh-oh. Dubya’s Wranglers must be in bunches. George W. Bush must be quakin’ in his cowboy boots.Just weeks into his transition into the U.S.
I’ve been thinking a lot about pride lately. While it’s certainly not hard to find school pride here, state pride is a whole other story.
The official declaration of George W. Bush as the next president of the United States put an end to the debate over the winner of the election, but not to questions raised about the American electoral process.Bush was certified as the winner of the election by his opponent, Vice President Al Gore, after a formal count of the electoral votes Saturday.
In a recent letter to the editor (”Paper reviews unpopular music,” SN 11/28) Dallas Smoke criticized The State News for reviewing “unpopular” music such as Blink-182, Marilyn Manson and Joni Mitchell.
In regards to the letter “Gore should not concede election” (SN 12/1), I have some problems with it.
Every year, The State News Editorial Board selects its winners and losers of the past 12 months. 2000 was one of the most remarkable 12 months for news in a long time.
For the last two and a half years of my life, I have lived without the aid of my parents. Next Thursday and for the three and a half weeks following it, I will live at home again. Each time I return, I am reminded of the warmth home brings and the comfort my family gives me.
I’ve read John LaFleur’s article (“Retailers sold out Christmas to be politically correct,” SN 11/30), and I’ve read many of the responses to his obviously biased article. First of all, LaFleur, isn’t one of the big themes of Christmas “Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men?” Doesn’t this include all people, regardless of faith or beliefs?
Does everyone in the MSU community know the difference between a traffic circle and a roundabout? They are, in fact, different.
While I in no way endorse John LaFleur’s narrow-minded views (“ Retailers sold out Christmas to be politically correct,” SN 11/30), I felt it necessary to take issue with some responses the column received. Susie Farnell’s letter (“Overadvertising is fault of Christians,” SN 12/4) was a contradiction in itself.
Like Kevin Hardy, I have struggled with the e-mail subject-line issue (“Please Read: Don’t include subjects with e-mails,” SN 12/1). For a while I, too, quit using subject lines altogether, but I felt guilty for copping out and filling my friends’ boxes with boring “none”s.
Shakespeare wrote, “What is in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” Until recently, that was a nice line to recite and use in English papers, but now it holds a little more meaning for me. I recently discovered that my last name is spelled wrong.
In the world of casual communication, I agree with Kevin Hardy’s assessment that a subject line is unnecessary (“Please Read: Don’t include subjects with e-mails,” SN 12/1). But in the world of business communication, the subject line serves a purpose.
MSU should reimburse all students who were illegally towed in the years since 1978, and promptly alter the parking code to comply with state law.
I appreciate the opportunity to briefly explain the university’s position on issues related to our towing practices.
