Letter: Students, staff can easily make pod printing faster

Editor, In response to Lucia Fronterotta's letter in Friday's Daily Lobo, I agree that printing can be a problem. But some of the responsibility for the problems must rest with faculty and the students. Often students will submit the same print job three or more times instead of waiting for the job ...

Letter: With options available, abortion is inexcusable

Editor, I am writing to express my disgust about the pro-choice letters in recent issues of the Daily Lobo. First of all, I would like to know when women got together collectively and decided that we should be allowed to make the decision to murder innocent babies, because apparently I did not get ...

Letter: Students should help search for next president

Editor, Wednesday's events force us to consider the qualities that we want the next UNM president to possess. As a university, UNM primarily sells one product: an education for students. I feel that our next president needs to possess an academic focus and, inherently, a student focus as well. President ...

Letter: Caldera paid for resigning while UNM gets poorer

Editor, What a sweet deal. Resign and get paid for it - do you blame Caldera? Oh, and receive a position in the UNM School of Law, too. It might be better for UNM that President Caldera is leaving, but maybe not. Maybe the UNM Board of Regents is really doing us all a favor, or maybe not. One ...

Engineering students discuss high-tech biz

by Caleb Fort Daily Lobo Joseph Cecchi said engineers do more than calculations. "Engineers have an image problem," said Cecchi, dean of the School of Engineering. "Everyone thinks we're geeks - well, we are geeks, that's true. But everyone thinks all we're about is doing arcane calculations, ...

Letter: Money too scarce to pay Caldera after resignation

Editor, So another president leaves UNM with a nice payoff. If the resignation is immediate, why are we giving Caldera six months' salary? This is money the University does not have - otherwise the regents would not have had to implement the recent tax on departmental budgets to cover other institutional ...

Letter: Incentives, sexism root of sex-selective abortions

Editor, I am aware of the Daily Lobo's policy limiting the printing of responses to letters, but nonetheless I feel that to leave this issue as is would be an injustice to the idea of balanced representation in the media. My particular qualm stems from the oversimplification and perhaps even misinterpretation ...

Letter: Father should have a say in choice to have abortion

Editor, In response to Jason Darensburg's letter in Wednesday's Daily Lobo, I found a few of his comments to be slightly disturbing. First of all, who is he to tell Benjamin Sanchez, "Jesus thinks you're a jerk"? Did the spirit of God actually tell him what Jesus thinks of Sanchez? In either case, ...

Letter: Pro-choice argument is flawed for three reasons

Editor, I found Jason Darensburg's letter in Wednesday's Daily Lobo quite repetitive. His letter was basically just restating the classic pro-choice argument that a woman should be able to choose what she does with her own body. I have found this argument to be untenable and flawed for three reasons. ...

Letter: Printing at computer pods is unacceptably inefficient

Editor, I am writing to express my frustration about the computer pods on campus - especially the SUB computer pod. There has to be an easier and less frustrating way to get each student his or her print jobs. This semester, I have waited over 30 minutes every time I went to a pod to receive something ...

It is not uncommon to hear comments from students such as, "My input does not matter, and it won't change anything."
