Editor, I was deeply saddened when I discovered that the Souper Salad near the University went out of business last week. As a student, and now as a staff person, Souper Salad always fed me for a reasonable price.
Editor, With many Muslims involved in rebellion against their leaders, one has to wonder: Is this rebellion permissible according to Islam? This question has largely gone unnoticed in the media coverage of the so-called “Arab Spring.” However, Al-Jazeera and Fox News didn’t teach Islam to the world; the Prophet Muhammad did. The Prophet Muhammad said, “Whoever wishes to advise the ruler, then let him not mention it in public, rather let him take the ruler by his hand.
Editor, You know, everything was fine until Al Gore had to point out the whole climate-change thing, but now New York suddenly has a seven-month-long winter.
Editor, After decades of exile to environmentalism’s legal fringes, the notion that natural systems could have legal rights is receiving serious attention.
If you’ve always wanted to write for the Daily Lobo but never knew how to get your foot in the door, here’s your chance. The Daily Lobo began its first series of summer writing workshops two weeks ago, and so far they have been a great success.
Editor, Perhaps you have noticed more APD officers in the campus area lately? Since February, APD has been conducting a “crime reduction initiative” in our community. Members of the neighborhood and business associations, along with UNM security, have been meeting with Sgt.
Editor, I was pleased to read your recent coverage of the one-year anniversary of the Association of Burundian Americans in New Mexico.
Editor, Dialogue in the comments section of the Daily Lobo website is extremely off-putting. Polarized and uninformed viewpoints abound, but that’s not the only problem. Some comments are obviously trolls trying a crude hand at sarcasm or some other form of humor.
Editor, I would like some clarification from Parking and Transportation Services (PATS) Director Clovis Acosta on the impact of increased parking rates.
Editor, Recreational Services did UNM staff a disservice when it stopped the time-honored tradition of opening Johnson Center from 7-9 a.m.
Editor, I see the Board of Regents recently spent $12,000 to meet with the Health Sciences Center at the luxury Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort and Spa.
Editor, I’d like to inform your readers about a new resource on the Daily Lobo website. Throughout the year, the Daily Lobo has tried to get the UNM administration to release an electronic copy of the UNM salary book.
Editor, When I read Thursday’s paper I was mad. To see people get upset about a political cartoon, really?
Editor, It is interesting to watch the spectacle unfold in the wake of the cartoon depicting President Barack Obama as Rafiki from the movie “The Lion King.” I believe that there is more to this than may initially meet the eye of the common reader. The editor-in-chief was seemingly forced to apologize, talk to the “African-American community” (whomever that may be) and spark a training forum for “sensitivity training.” Why? Is the cartoonist implying that Obama is equivalent to a chimp?
Editor, I am a part-time UNM faculty member. I teach PENP 134 and 135 (beginning and intermediate Kung-Fu classes) on UNM campus, and I was annoyed by the April 26 article “Want An Easy A?
Editor, Teachers in the Political Science and English departments care about their students. I am a senior majoring in English and Political Science.
Editor, I find it troubling and saddening that so many are rejoicing and celebrating the death of Osama bin Laden.
Editor, I am writing you to address the blatant racial insensitivity of the political cartoon the Daily Lobo published today on its Opinion page.
Editor, There is a lot of discourse taking place these last few days in regards to the moral appropriateness of a general celebratory attitude surrounding the death of Osama bin Laden.
Editor, I read the article in the April 26 issue about the smoking ban as “tobacco totalitarianism.” While I was not surprised by people’s resistance to the ban, it baffles me that smoking is an issue for our generation.
