Edit Stories for 10-13-2000

Students shut out

The University takes great pride in its diversity: Its students come from all over the world and although each has a unique combination of race, ethnicity, religion, academic interests and ideology, there is a place for everyone here in Ann Arbor.

Missile offense

Last Saturday in Ann Arbor and 60 other cites around the world, demonstrators protested the use of military technology in space. Even though it might be hard to take someone dressed like Darth Vader seriously, the U.S. should listen to these protesters and thoroughly reevaluate its defense policies - specifically with respect to the proposed National Missile Defense system (the continuation of Reagan's "Star Wars").

Seeing the world differently from the rooftops

This is my dream: One night very soon, the University will rise up. Quite literally. Everyone will put down the books and coffee and like a pack of docile zombies we will ascend the fire escapes and ladders to the rooftops. Perhaps then we will all have a new perspective, at the mere risk of tumbling headlong into the azaleas.
