Editor, I am writing to respond to Muhajir Salam’s letter to the Daily Lobo on Oct. 26. In his letter, he states that his UNM courses on Islam promote anti-Muslim stereotypes and sentiments.
Editor, I oppose treating immigrants as criminals just because they do not have legal papers. I oppose treating people who compassionately help these immigrants as criminals.
Editor, This is in response to Muhajir Salam, who wrote a letter to the editor about his religion classes on Monday. Mr. Salam, I am very surprised that, as a college student, you were unable to figure out that anyone other than you would know the true meaning of Islam.
In the midst of all this talk about health care reform, I am lucky to have ended up in the emergency room twice this year — once at a hospital in Albuquerque and another time in Barcelona, Spain.
Editor, This is a response to Peter Zeikus’ letter, “Weh, not Denish, will stand up for hardworking New Mexicans,” that posted Tuesday on Dailylobo.com.
Editor, I am a history professor who teaches courses on Middle East, South Asia and Islam. In Tuesday’s Lobo, Muhajir Salam alleged bias against Islam in unnamed courses he is taking this semester that relate to Islam.
Editor, I am new here in Albuquerque and I would like to meet some students that have radical ideas.
Editor, Over the last year or so, there has been a lot of finger pointing as to what caused the housing and ultimately the financial crisis.
WASHINGTON — Take a hard look now. A new agency that consumers were promised would make bankers, credit card companies and mortgage lenders treat them fairly will never look as strong again.

Editor, This is the first letter I have written to the newspaper because there has been nothing I felt so passionate about until now.
President Barack Obama’s relief at the agreement that could quiet the political crisis over Afghanistan’s spoiled election masks his predicament as he weighs an expansion of the unpopular Afghanistan war. The administration says its ambitious plans for Afghanistan rely on a “credible partner” in Kabul.
Editor, I am pleased to see that over 50 percent of the people who have voted so far in this week’s online poll recognize Fox News as nothing more than a mouthpiece for conservative-based propaganda.
Editor, Last November, many students voted for the first time in their lives after they chose not to do so in previous elections. The saying that “money talks, people walk” still rings true.
Editor, Instead of building a $17 million parking structure at Lomas and Yale boulevards, UNM Parking and Transportation Services should simply construct a $50 bus stop for its ubiquitous shuttles. A shuttle stop at Lomas and Yale would give faculty, students and staff easy access to the city buses that pass by there almost every 10 minutes.
Editor, The Bible contains some of the worst poison crap and some of the best precious wisdom ever written.
