Make a difference by being a Third World micro-lender

Editor, I've just finished my first year as a micro-lender. I lend money to business entrepreneurs in Third World countries, and I'm making a real difference in the world. For years, I asked how I could contribute, but I've also been dismayed by the lack of oversight.

Violent television threatens moral development of kids

Editor, I feel television is having a big impact on our culture and society. The violence on television is increasing at such an alarming rate that I am concerned for children who watch it. Every time I sit down and watch television with my 5-year-old sister, I am alarmed at the content being shown.

Gay adopters should be treated like everyone else

Editor, Gay adoptions are discriminated against. This needs to stop. There's no reason for it. People are adopting all over the U.S., but not all of them are treated with the same respect. With some, the adoptions run smoothly and quickly, while others run into roadblocks and setbacks.

Select few caused turmoil at GPSA recall discussion

Editor, I think Monday's front page headline completely missed the importance and significance of the GPSA meeting. As someone in attendance, I can say what I saw warranted a completely different story and certainly a different headline. In my mind, what should have been the story was all but 10 of the 60 graduate students in an overflowing room supported a president who is being recalled by the initiative of a few.

Catholicism must dispel fallacies to stay relevant

Editor, I begin by saying the Catholic Church is fading away. We must all admit there is a problem with the way it's headed. First of all, the Catholic Church is one of the largest churches. According to common belief, it is opposed to three things: science, birth control and gay marriage.

Legal immigration should be congressional priority

Editor, As we all know, illegal immigration is a top issue in today's world. While most of the talk is about what to do with illegal immigrants already in the country, almost nothing is done about legal immigration. The process can easily take over a year to complete because there are so many applicants.

UNM dining should offer more vegetarian options

Editor, I want to compliment Nahzeha Hussien for speaking out in Monday's Daily Lobo about the lack of vegetarian options at UNM. As Hussien mentions, vegetarian options are more popular than ever, particularly among college students, for reasons ranging from health and environmental concerns to the cruelty to animals involved in raising and killing them for food.

Campuswide smoking ban would single out minority

Editor, College is often promoted as a chance to shine as an individual. However, when the University itself tends to promote an action by following the lead of others, one cannot help but be discouraged. There have been a few such actions over the years, but with the proposal of a campuswide smoking ban, I am afraid UNM has reached a new level of the illogical.
