College Times, Utah Valley State College, UT

9 hours ago by Greg Wilcox

Roughly one year ago, I chided those UVSC students who had the temerity to sport BYU attire on campus with the article "On the lookout for UV zoobies." The tone was that of chastisement, and I meant to stir up a renewed sense of the duty that, ideally, comes with proper school pride.

Editor, On the news this morning, I heard another woman was attacked on the UNM campus. This time the attacker was a homeless man, most likely drunk. A shiver went down my spine, because I was approached by three large, seemingly homeless men on Thursday.

Re-branding UNM image not a solution to education issues

Daily Lobo, University of New Mexico, NM

1 day ago

Editor, It seems out of place for UNM to be spending $4 million on a new set of fancy clothes to create a new image when no one is addressing the real problems that need to be solved. That money could easily raise the salaries of the staff and part-time faculty.

Editor, I am one someone many call "a bitter Hillary Clinton supporter for John McCain." But I'm voting for McCain for the reasons stated below and for no other reason.

Inasmuch as we have thousands of new freshmen on campus, just recently released from some of the daily parental advice they've so often screened out, I figured there might be a "do as I say" gap to fill.

I thought, too, that since my kids screened out much of the advice I've offered, this might be a chance to have my "do as I say" bromides absorbed by other people's children.

As the newest members of our student body begin their journey at CSU, I feel obliged to share with them the fundamental lesson all freshmen should learn: How to have great fun without drinking.

WAIT! Don't go anywhere. It's true. There are loads of shenanigans to be had without dealing with disciplinary action from the university, MIPs or worse.

According to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, Alabama, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and Virginia are all considering legislation that would allow people to carry concealed guns on campus-a right that people on Utah's college and university campuses already have.

2 days ago by Gina Lea Nickl

It's safe to say that binge drinking has become a part of life for many college students. More than 44 percent of college students show symptoms of alcohol abuse or dependence, according to a study performed by Harvard School of Public Health.
