Plagiarism is an issue of major concern in any institution of higher learning (“To Cheat or Not to Cheat,” episode 35, “Saved by the Bell: The New Class”). Chances are that you know someone in this college who has cheated on a test or paper in some way, and it’s time that we take a stand against this immoral behavior. I know there are plenty of other important causes you are fighting for right now (the hundreds of random fliers I have stuffed in my pockets...
After reading theexcerpt fromBarack Obama's new book, The Audacity of Hope, I've reconsidered my concern about his lack of experience [Oct. 23]. I'm inclined to vote for a smart, effective communicator and consensus builder who may have little experience but is pragmatic and inclusionary like him rather than someone who has experience but is absolutist and exclusionary.

Far from being the isolated snob portrayed in the media, Healey went to public school in Florida and worked her way through Harvard...
...HRL’s campaign to an attack on rape victims. As an aside, it bears noting that the proportion of abortions attributed to rape and incest in the U.S. hovers between one and two percent, depending on the study. But more importantly, their claim elides the primary concern of HRL’s campaign, namely the fetus, as well as the campaign’s demand for greater resources to assist young mothers. Pro-choice activists who summarily condemn their opponents as anti-women evince no more honesty or nuance than anti-abortion activists who condemn their opponents...
