Opinion

ASUU should rethink leadership methods

November 21, 2008

Instead of wasting time, energy and money inventing ideas indiscriminately, or at least haphazardly, ASUU should put more research into legitimate student needs.

The Chronicle has no basis for questioning Young’s allegiance

November 20, 2008

Questioning the administration's efforts to promote good sportsmanship is uncalled for, and evidently, we can all use a lesson on staying classy.

Cell champions are hypocrites

November 18, 2008

The idea of extending rights to "potential" human beings would mean that using contraceptives or even waiting until marriage would be equally unethical propositions. Potentially, Alison could be pregnant right now with a child that might develop a cure to cancer. That doesn't mean I think she should be forced to keep it.

Oil leases threaten national parks
