BBQ stokes fires

Megan Bartelt • October 9, 2003

To those others of you who consider yourselves Republicans, I will strive to keep in mind that those responsible for this event do not necessarily represent your party nor even your campus organization as a whole. An admonition from you would have much...

Sex on campus shows need for VOX group

[email protected] • October 9, 2003

In view of the liberal arts tradition of this university, it is important to keep in mind that values and beliefs are personal choices and that the pursuit of knowledge requires an open mind and as much accurate information as possible. The focus of a...

Bias burns MU conservatives

Joseph Wilke • September 23, 2003

Several friends and I submitted Viewpoints to the Tribune last semester supporting President Bush's Iraq policy, while Tribune columnists and Viewpoint writers — including students like Mate — constantly bashed Bush and U.S. policy toward Iraq....

Posters reveal truth about history, U.S.

Critics miss point

Brian Collar • September 23, 2003

Mate makes some sweeping generalizations and accusations regarding the ongoing conflict in Iraq. First, I'll admit that I'm a bit puzzled on the question of weapons of mass destruction. It seems to me that the president and our allies might like to offer...

Fair, balanced in the midst of all this criticism

A struggle for all

Nicholas Zettel • September 18, 2003

Here are two pieces of advice for Keener:

We are ALL Marquette

Christian Eichenlaub • September 18, 2003

For a little Latin, let's try "cura personalis," one of the virtues that our university is founded upon. This "care for the whole person" charges students to develop educationally and socially into adults who are not only true to themselves but also...
