I recently enjoyed the column written by Joelle McGinnis, which accurately argues against the use of warning labels. Legislators across this country have over-abused the use of warning labels, with a special thanks to our nation's hungry (yet not starving)...

A formal mission statement will be given at the second meeting of the Holmes Student Center Bookstore Privatization Committee Wednesday. The committee, which was formed to address the possibility of having the bookstore privately owned by an outside vendor,...

I am responding to the article—Oops! I mean column, written by, the oh so open-minded, Marianne Renner on Oct. 4. Get off the pedestal, on which you have placed yourself, honey and listen to what others have to say! Open your eyes Marianne. People on...
