Horowitz’s point is off the mark
April 26As a right-wing provocateur, David Horowitz has few peers. Particularly on the issue of reparations for slavery, he has managed to take a relatively obscure academic debate and make it a topic of popular discussion in several colleges and universities.

Arguments in favor of baseball stadium flawed

Slates don’t reflect all UNM students
April 25Since this is my first year at UNM, I did not know a lot about ASUNM. Last semester, I didn’t really pay attention to the election, but this time it was impossible to ignore. Everywhere I went I was assaulted by chalked up sidewalks proclaiming The People or The Connection slates. On Election Day, we were all bombarded by handouts telling us who to vote for or were bribed with candy handouts. I was so annoyed that I decided to look into these two slates. What I found was disturbing.

Stand up for your religious beliefs, do not be silenced
April 23Editor, It is truly a sad indication of the times and an example of people's ignorance when someone who holds a biblical-based Christian worldview is labeled a "bigot" whose opinions are considered "mentally challenged drivel." This is, however, the opinion of many people, including James Burbank.

Cincinnati police not as racist as columnist thinks
April 23Editor, I realize that the column "Only We Can Prevent Riots" in the April 16 Daily Lobo was pulled off the wire, but that doesn't excuse the Lobo's editors from responsibility for printing such inflammatory garbage.

Minor sports unnecessary
April 23Editor, On April 24, the Faculty Senate will consider a resolution in support of the reinstatement of three UNM men's intercollegiate athletics programs that were cut in 1999: gymnastics, swimming and wrestling.
