Where are all the Conservatives?

By Adil Ahmad | October 28, 2003

Original quote: "He [Adil] is a raging racist who just rants and knows nothing of substance." Now adjusted for liberal talk: "He is a conservative who voices his strongly right-leaning, realist opinions in public without fear of retribution." The fellow who made this comment was one of those "nice -- meaning liberal" students who blatantly discriminated against conservatives.

By Ryan Tan | October 27, 2003

Recently, the Student Assembly called a meeting to discuss the possible expansion of Kresge, in light of the administration's recent shelving of plans to build a new gym to replace the almost 100-year-old Alumni Gym.

Alternative Medicine

By Ben Krauss | October 27, 2003

Who does Howard Dean think he is? No disrespect to our idyllic neighbor across the river, but his state is small, uneventful and not terribly representative of American demographics.

Business Pointers for DDS

By Daniel Ng | October 23, 2003

DDS excels at being predictable, like the predictable southern fried chicken on Mondays at Food Court, or the predictable deep-fried bits of seafood on Fridays.

The Prospie Paradox

By Nathaniel Paull | October 22, 2003

I question both the veracity of the motives and the intelligence of any group that purports to campaign for the wellbeing of non-human animals while actively discouraging its members from supporting the National Wildlife Federation, the National Audubon Society, the Nature Conservancy, the Sierra Club, the Wilderness Society and the World Wildlife Fund.

First, the free speech clause of the First Amendment prohibits the government (Congress, and later by extension the states as well) from passing laws abridging freedom of speech.
