Racist flyers not part of Chronicle

March 11, 2009

The Chronicle certainly was not involved in the production or distribution of the offensive flyers. We don't deliver papers to any private residences. The information printed on the flyers was disgusting and does not represent our view in any way.

Liquor law change is valid

By By Liz Carlston March 11, 2009

The new progressive liquor legislation is a breath of fresh air and long overdue. Finally, popular grocery outlets such as Trader Joe's, which makes substantial profits from liquor sales, will be able to come to Utah. Loosening restraints on tourism and business will be welcome during the economic recession.

ASUU is good for U

By By Jonathan Deesing March 10, 2009

So by all means, continue complaining about ASUU. But don't do it under the impression that ASUU doesn't help students. Because as crazy as they may seem, they still love U.

Hits and Misses

March 10, 2009

Now that the fee has passed, the Trustees should ensure in their next meeting that such a media council would not waste student fees or interfere with the independence of student media.

Humanities Majors Aren’t Useless

By By Jeffrey Jenkins March 10, 2009

All degrees serve a purpose. However, the fine adjustment between life and real life is more fully realized in the humanities. Don't allow the popular major trends to set your course of study. Humanities majors need not live in fear.

Stem-cell decision proves Obama is pro-death

March 9, 2009

Barack Obama reversed the U.S. stem cell policy Monday. This is just another "change" in the wrong direction. In under two months, Obama has managed to use his power to take money from my wallet and the wallet of every taxpaying American to help end the lives of living human beings.

GO accountant not at fault for errors

March 9, 2009

Allow me the opportunity to correct the information published in Friday's edition of The Daily Utah Chronicle, ("Parties punished for flawed financial disclosures," March 6). It seems to me that Michael McFall was not attending the same hearing that I was, considering the information that he presented in his article.

Refugees need better care

By By John Stafford March 9, 2009

America needs to show the world that the words inscribed on the Statue of Liberty are not mere hyperbole, but a respected manifesto of the way we as a people and as a country seek to do good in the world. At the very least we should make a greater effort to look after refugees in Utah.

Go Party sorry for their ad

March 8, 2009

I have informed myself about all the parties and I can honestly say that the GO Party has listened to my individual needs. I hope that my peers who were offended by the audio clip can give the GO Party the opportunity to apologize for the incident and learn how they want to fix this problem.

Wind power might be Utah’s best bet

By By Liz Carlston March 8, 2009

Although the concept of harnessing natural energy is logical and is becoming more affordable with government support, time will tell whether it will truly be a sustainable industry and energy solution. It just might be what Utah needs.
