If an average person said something like “people who call themselves ‘pro-life,’ and yet support the death penalty are idiots,” I would probably let it slide. I have a problem with political science senior saying it; however, because it indicates…
Letters to the Editor
Mr. Eller's arguments are not convincing
I would like to thank the conservative columnist Brian Eller for citing some sources in his article, “American history and black history, it’s one and the same.” This is something I found severely lacking from his previous article on global…
Help the students' voices be heard on Mardi Gras, Tylor Middlestadt
Please make a difference this year. I voted for you because I believed that you would stand up for students rights. I voted for you because you said that Blake (Bolton) had failed us with the Mardi Gras situation last…
Mr. Ingram managed to label himself
In response to your article entitled “Political convictions without political labels,” I’d like to give you advice instead of lowering myself to your level. Quit trying to be “raw” and “unconventional” because your columns are anything but. Peppering your article…
Missing money in the College of Agriculture
Today, I drove past the construction zones here at school. Every year amazing buildings arise on campus. I feel proud to have these new facilities for students. I am currently enrolled in a class about crops and the different systems…
The real problem with the sex columns
The main problem with the sex column is not its graphic nature (although it may be), the problem is that the sex column is as original as a drunken frat boy holding an empty can of Natural Ice Light. I…

In response to Brian Eller’s commentary, I would like to say that I am appalled by the fact that some people are so close-minded about the major issues facing the environment. Since when does the holocaust have anything to do…
Review is an embarrassment to the English language
Gino Macaluso’s piece in Monday’s Mustang Daily was the most offensive thing I have read in months. I don’t care about whatever opinion of “Belle and Sebby” he may have; I don’t have much of one. I am offended because…
Try reviewing something recent for a change
What could be more foolish than giving a poor review to a record that is clearly perfect? Perhaps doing so, ten years after it’s released. Before Gino Macaluso attempted to pen such an absurd disapproval of Belle & Sebastian’s 1996…
Some knowledge for Mr. Eller
Brian Eller, I hope your column on global warming was just an extreme right-wing shock article to stir up some commotion (Rush Limbaugh style), because if you actually believe in what you wrote, that’s scary. How selfish can you be…
A sustainable society is feasible
Sustainability Month’s theme as an “environmental armageddon” does not seem quite accurate. I attended many of the events and not once did I hear of an inevitable death to mankind. What I heard was rather how we can profitably transition…
