The moth outbreak on campus and around the city is not an unusual occurrence. It happens every few years, depending on the previous winter weather.
We are responding to a letter in the May 1 Daily Lobo from Bob Anderson. He seems confused about why professor Mohammed El-Genk was chosen as the 46th Annual Research Lecturer and wrote, “I am greatly disappointed that UNM gave a prestigious award, several thousand dollars and time off to someone who is basically using our school to help the military wage war in space.” This comment is inaccurate and unfair.
As if Jeremy Reynalds weren’t enough, there’s a new radical religious columnist on the block. It’s a diabolical plot. Today the Daily Lobo, tomorrow the world. (Insert evil laugh here.)
I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate UNM’s Graduating Class of 2001. We at Parking and Transportation Services commend our graduates on a job well done and wish them the very best as they head on to new careers or advanced degree work. We hope that your celebrations are both safe and joyous and offer these suggestions to make commencement and convocations as enjoyable and hassle-free for you and your families as possible.
It is with great regret that I write this editorial to apologize to Daily Lobo readers and columnist Richard Berthold.
Suicide is a complex, behavioral response to someone feeling helplessly trapped in a bad situation. People feeling suicidal often are not aware of alternative actions they can take to alleviate or change themselves or their situation.
Editor, We have seen many examples in the last couple of weeks from people who do not believe in reparations to African-Americans.
Editor, I applaud and appreciate your decision to print David Horowitz's controversial advertisement regarding race reparations.
It is certainly understandable that some old lady clutching an icon of the Virgin might not fully understand the meaning of free expression, but it is always disappointing to see university students assume a similar intolerant stance.
Editor, I feel most students need some crucial information before making a decision to vote on the stadium later this month.
Editor, Since I graduated from UNM a year and a half ago, I find myself reading the Daily Lobo more than ever. I also have seen the reoccurrence of a problem that plagued the Lobo a few years back.
Editor, I have to ask Kristina Scott, Richard Fagerlund and all the others who write the to the Daily Lobo with a clear anti-Christian bias — why does the term “bigot” not apply to you? Why are Christians somehow not part of the diverse population? And I also notice that there is a clear dearth of letters supporting Mr. Reynalds whenever I read the Lobo, so I have to ask the Lobo editor — do you only print anti-Reynalds letters, or are those the only ones you get?
Editor, I disagree with Doug Flynn and some of the other folks who want Jeremy Reynalds out of the Daily Lobo. I am probably one of Jeremy’s biggest critics and I disagree with almost everything he writes. Having said that, I also enjoy reading his columns, even if they are, at times, overbearing.
Editor, I am responding to the April 17 Daily Lobo editorial page cartoon on taxes that mentioned me. I have paid no federal income tax for 22 years. I refuse to pay for the United State to rob, terrorize, cripple and murder millions of our sisters and brothers worldwide.
American Dennis Tito became Monday what many are calling the world’s first space tourist. Floating onto the International Space Station with a grin on his face and $20 million poorer, he became the first to show that what science fiction authors have dreamed of for decades may not be so far out after all.
Editor, While David Horowitz has some good points in his reparations advertisement, he quickly spoils them toward the end of the list. He asks the question of acknowledgement of black America and its leaders for the “gifts” of freedom. He is quick to point out that “a white president” gave his life for his beliefs, but he forgets to mention Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. — a black activist who was also killed because of his beliefs.
Editor, It seemed like a bad enough start to the day to see that the infamous Horowitz advertisement had made its way to our campus, but the free speech shield carefully placed on the opposite page really ruined my morning. Eighty percent of the “Opinion” page is dedicated to the Horowitz hoohah, 100 percent of which is in defense of its publication.
