Despite losing players, Penn State is upbeat

·

Penn State women's basketball coach Rene Portland already had a headache when trying to replace Helen Darling and Andrea Garner, two All-Americans who guided Penn State to the Final Four last season.

Dorm room creativity rewarded

·

Freshmen Christine Boone and Shanda Sasse are proud of their dorm room. "You have to be in our room to see the ultimate coolness of it," Boone said. The decoration of their room was somewhat of a compromise.

National screenwriter to speak at film showing

·

She lost her job over network television's first interracial kiss. In 1977, nurse Valerie Grant, an African-American character on the soap opera "Days of Our Lives," kissed Richard, a white character, causing a deluge of criticism from angry viewers.

La Torre not appetizing

The atmosphere of La Torre is appealing. Decorated with bright paper banners and tiled walls, the interior of the restaurant is deceiving. You might think you're in for a treat, but you'll be wrong.

Palm Beach should not revote

·

The election results aren't finalized, but voters in Palm Beach, Fla., are demanding a revote, based on an allegedly confusing ballot used in the Nov. 7 election in that county.

Opening the mailbag

·

It has been a little more than a year since I started writing this thing. In this time I have acquired quite a bit of mail. Since this is more or less my one-year column-writing anniversary, I'd like to acknowledge some of you loyal fans, and those of you nonfans -- whom I can only describe as player haters.

America must educate

·

Imagine yourself riding on a crowded bus, your face pressed up against some fat guy's armpit. The sweat from his face rolls down onto your shoes. But you can't move, because you're straddling a metal bar while a woman's six kids bite your ankles and draw pictures of Barney on your butt.

A merit badge for voter apathy

·

So it's all coming down to the Sunshine State. It's very troubling that a few scattered votes might actually determine the next leader of the free world. I have a simple solution, an easy way to avert that -- just sell Florida back to Spain, Bobby Bowden and all. One peninsula is one peninsula too many, as far as I'm concerned.

Oops! The media did it again

·

The news media's coverage of the 2000 presidential election was and continues to be a comedy of errors and miscues. MSNBC's Brian Williams urged millions of Americans to wake up their children in the early morning hours of Wednesday, Nov. 8, assuring them that George W. Bush had just been elected the 43rd president of the United States.

United States not a democracy

·

Don Evans, chairman of the Bush campaign, has countered Democrats' claims for a justifiable inquiry into Florida's chaotic election mishap by stating that such an investigation would be done only "at the expense of our democracy."

Edwards' column enlightening

·

Chris Edwards' column, "The wrong president," (Nov. 10) was refreshing, and encouraging to know that common sense can prevail in understanding who the next president of the United States really appears to be -- a fraud.


The Indiana Daily Student

Edwards' column misleading

·

After reading Chris Edwards' extremely critical article regarding George W. Bush and his bid for the presidency ("The wrong president, Nov. 10), I, once again, discovered how ignorant some people can be.

Dissents should not be anonymous

·

This message is in response to the ombudsman article appearing in the Nov. 8 IDS entitled, "Dissents: useful or useless?" in which I am named as making a "personal attack" on Brian Zell.

Double-sided printing saves trees

·

Doesn't the news make you mad sometimes? Send it back. Ballantine Hall has new recycling bins for your IDS and using them will help save wild forests.

Religion can survive science

·

While the Oct. 25 IDS article, "Science pitted against religion," tried to undermine the relationship between science and Islam, the teachings of Islam prove otherwise.

Science building site hurts campus beauty

·

The plans for the new science building concern me as they seem to include the destruction of part of the woods between Ballantine Hall and the Chemistry building. I am very surprised by this.

Crews need daylight

·

I was completely taken aback today upon seeing the fantastic world of make-believe that the staff editorial (Nov. 9) painted on the topic of IUSA's proposal to dictate the starting and ending times of construction projects on campus.

Kudos to the administration

·

Last February, IU made a commitment to the newly established independent monitoring organization, the Workers Rights Consortium (WRC), to implement the IU code of conduct for licensees that produce apparel with the IU logo.
