Opinions Bipolarity James Proescholdt Student Columnist Parents have an extraordinarily difficult task. During their children's younger years, it is necessary to observe their every action to ensure appropriate learned behavior. They must set rules for their children to follow and enforce punishments if they are broken. more... Busta Rhymes? Busta move? Busta...what? A word from our editors... Editorial Busta Rhymes is one of the most flamboyant personas in hip hop. For the past week, rumors have flown around campus about the possibility of him headlining the annual Fall Concert. Although he has yet to sign any sort of formal contract, the word has spread like an Ole Lion's roar throughout the Stav Dining Hall. more... Concern for alcohol containers found in President's recycling Tobiah Bingham Contributing Writer Chardonay, Amador, Savignon Blanc, unlabeled mason jars. The contents of the recycling bin, found at the end of the Presidents driveway, gave rise to much speculation among members of the men's cross-country running team as they jogged by the President's house last Thursday. more... Taking our freedoms for granted? Erika Toftness Opinions Editor Last week I went down to the Pause to watch a 3rd party presidential debate on CNN.

PAC Speaks As the presidential election draws near, people begin to pay more attention to the issues being debated: education, taxes, the environment, foreign policy, health care, and safety, just to name a few. If you were among the many students watching the first presidential debate last Tuesday, you would know that these were some of the issues discussed. more... Viva! Viva Yang Student Columnist I would like to think that I'm an assertive person; that I know my own rights and speak my mind while still respecting the rights of others. In being assertive, I know when to say yes or no when I am faced with a situation. more... Voting In Favor of Education Sarah Henneman Letter to the Editor As a college student, I appreciate political candidates who pay attention to the issues important to young people.
