Letters to the Editor
A woman's place in society does not have to be at home
Ms. Potter, I am not the type to criticize what others want to do with their degree but I am appalled by what you have said in your letter. Go ahead and earn your MRS degree if that is what…
A letter for Jessica Potter

Los Angeles Times stirs up the pot
New topic already, jeees. Hmm … politics, religion, SLO repression? As catchy as those topics are they have been done before. Let’s try a new topic and see how it goes. The Los Angeles Times a few weeks ago reported…

Remembering Gene Lenz
I would really like to thank Tonya Strickland for writing a wonderful article in memory of Gene Lenz, former Cal Poly swimmer and Olympian. I have known Gene for the last four years and I felt honored to have met…
