Amelia Hoover Green, With regard to Miller’s “hateful” tweet, I feel compelled to clarify what I feel are inaccuracies with your rebuttal. While Miller’s analogy may not be entirely logical, there certainly is a lot of underlying #truth, as applied to our society as a whole.
Editor, Just like the front of a box of crayons, the GOP has once again shown their true colors. As legislation to prevent student loan interest rates from automatically doubling on July 1 goes down the tubes, the Republican chair of the House Education and Workforce Committee acknowledges that President Obama must submit to a GOP deal or take the blame for interest rates doubling.
Editor, In the May 28-June 2 edition of the Daily Lobo, columnist Devon Stevens took a heavy-handed swipe at the “Fun in the 505” booklet produced by the student employees of the Campus Office of Substance Abuse Prevention: COSAP.
Editor, I have noticed lately that the Human Resources Department at UNM, like many HR departments at great universities, is pushing employees to buy into 403(b) and 457(b) plans.
