Letter: Majority are nonsmokers; they shouldn't complain

Editor, I'm concerned about the recent letters that have been published in the Daily Lobo with regards to smoking on campus and the dangers of second-hand smoke. As a social smoker, I'm tired of being labeled as a bad person because of my choice to smoke. I completely understand and agree with ...

Letter: Focusing on race reveals the beginning of racism

Editor, One of Michelle Touson's graduate classes must not have been the study of logic. With 10 million other things to focus her eyes and her mind on, she has chosen to take notice of her color and the color of others in her class. That action sounds to me like the beginning of the limiting logic ...

Letter: Lax smoking rules at UNM risk health of nonsmokers

Editor, I have to agree with Kristen Woodruff's letter in Thursday's Daily Lobo about UNM's extremely lenient smoking policy. Thousands and thousands of nonsmokers have and die of lung cancer every year. Dana Reeve, Christopher Reeve's widow and a life-long nonsmoker, currently has smoker's lung ...

Letter: Nonsmokers are winning, so they should quit whining

Editor, This is in response to Kristen Woodruff's letter from Thursday's edition of the Daily Lobo. Let me begin by saying that while she has a good point, she has chosen to articulate this opinion in a forceful way. This is why I have chosen to write this letter. As a tobacco slave, it is painful ...

Petitioning book prices

by Christopher Sanchez Daily Lobo UNM student T.D. Gonzales said $600 is too much money to spend on textbooks if he cracks them open only twice a semester. "Some professors require you buy textbooks, and then they tell you that you don't need them halfway in the semester," he said. Gonzales ...

Work ethic winning trust

by Kevin McFarland Daily Lobo Early this season, Lobo junior transfer Joel Box was lacking a key ingredient to his game. It definitely wasn't talent. Box could shoot the lights out for a team that desperately needed a three-point shooter. Box was not lacking in size, either.

Letter: Music department should expel Hare Krishna singer

Editor, OK, I'll say it - there is a sonic stink bomb at UNM every day around lunch hour. Has anyone noticed that no one sits or hangs out in front of Popejoy anymore? There's only one person sitting there every day - the sonic stink bomb, the Hare Krishna. From the south doors of the SUB to the ...

Letter: Despite success, tennis neglected by Daily Lobo

Editor, We are a little offended with the lack of interest shown in UNM tennis teams. The past two weekends, both men's and women's teams have had major events that have not been reported in the Daily Lobo. The women's tennis team had an upset victory over the 27-ranked team in the nation - the ...

Column: Science of aphrodisiacs

by Samara Alpern Daily Lobo columnist People just aren't as romantic as they used to be. Back in the day, men concocted all kinds of aphrodisiacal rituals and potions to elicit love from women. In North Africa, for example, a man would secretly enrich a beverage for his love interest with semen ...

Letter: Campus smoking policy should be more specific

Editor, As a firm tobacco adversary and a member of the on-campus coalition against tobacco, EXPOSE, it is painful to watch the countless number of students, staff and faculty at UNM who are slaves to the little drug called tobacco. What is even more painful, though, is seeing those who do not partake ...
