Baer Responds to Endorsements

defaultuser March 2, 2007
To the Editor: In response to your SGA endorsement article, your personal attacks upon my character were unprofessional. It does not reflect well upon your journalistic integrity. I would be interested to know who my critics are so I could talk to them one-on-one; however I have only you to address.

Terra Ve Expansion: Good to Grow

James Ahearn March 2, 2007
Many people think that Terra Ve is a restaurant for creepy vegans and those obsessed with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. I have a slightly different view of Terra Ve. Rather than a waste of space, I view Terra Ve as a small eatery where I can grab a salad made of fresh lettuce, pieces of onion, milk-free cheese and healthy dressing.

Sophomore Critiques “The University News”

defaultuser March 2, 2007
To the Editor: Let me start off by pointing out that I am a regular reader who appreciates your hard work and dedication. In Volume 86, Number 21 of The University News, whose headline read "Election Season Draws to Close," however, I noticed a peculiar climax to a growing debacle.

Terra Ve Expansion: Not Worth the Dough

Megan Kenny March 2, 2007
I like Terra Ve because it is a convenient place for students to grab a healthy meal on campus-something we could all use a little more of, I would venture to say. You don't have to be a vegetarian or a vegan to enjoy the things Terra Ve has to offer: fresh salad, delicious pasta, t-a-s-t-y stir fry .

Anyone But a Soldier: Patriotism vs. Pop Music

Shawn McCarthy March 2, 2007
As a soldier with traditional values, I know that punk rock shows are not the friendliest places for me. I expect to have to tolerate the bands occasionally stomping on what I believe in; after all, they gotta do what the kids think is cool. I do not expect, however, to be attacked for being a soldier and disagreeing with the political statements made on stage, which is exactly what happened at Pop's on Feb.

A Student Voice

Editorial Board March 2, 2007
During this week's Student Government Association meeting, International Student Federation senator Shahida Flores expressed her opinion: She claimed that The University News has not been accurately reflecting the voice of Saint Louis University students. We appreciate this criticism.

A love letter to SGA-sort of.

Diana L. Benanti February 23, 2007
What would Adam Meister do? That question has been ringing in my head for three weeks since the start of this lovely SGA election season. That name, Meister, may be unfamiliar to some, but, truth be told, watching recent events unfold has made me nostalgic for the Meister Administration.

The Vigil of Insteads

Jenna Steege February 16, 2007
Since a week after Sept. 11, 2001, the St. Louis Instead of War Coalition has gathered every Sunday evening on the steps of St. Francis Xavier College Church. With the corner of Lindell Boulevard and Grand Boulevard as their stage, the coalition members broadcast a message of peace and justice to whomever happens to drive or walk past.

Writing Center Offers Services

Bill Rable February 16, 2007
I would like to alert all Saint Louis University graduate students that the Graduate Writing Center is open for the spring semester. The GWC is located on the fifth floor of Pius XII Memorial Library, Room 503. All consultants are graduate students from the Saint Louis University English Department.

Freshmen Kiss and Tell

Maria Reilly February 16, 2007
For those of the third and fourth floors of Gries, Walsh and Clemens who were in their rooms around 4:30 last Monday, I probably asked you to participate in my poll. It was a simple, completely anonymous poll. Just had to write down the number of people you've kissed since you've been here at school.

Student Investigates DeMatt Pool

Natasha Carter February 16, 2007
To the Editor: A pool in DeMatt?! What?! All along, there was a pool right under the noses of DeMatt residents. A pool for their convenience was something residents didn't know they could take advantage of. An interview with the Director of Housing and Residence Life, Argyle Wade, was conducted to investigate this mystery.

Global Warming: Truth or Myth?

Andrew Emmerich February 16, 2007
I'm no scientist, and yet I can't help but contain my excitement at the knowledge that one day, in the not too distant future, I could have beach front property right here in St. Louis. And I can only wait with bated breath for the day that St. Louis will be the largest city on the new east coast.
