Students can say where fees go

If any lesson should be learned from last year’s presidential election and the resulting chaos, it’s that every single vote really does count. These days, it’s easy to feel lost in the crowd.

Ignorance and poverty are true forms of oppression

I’d like to know exactly what circumstances in Laura Valdez’s life constitute “oppression.” She is employed at a university filled with upwardly mobile, educated and diverse Hispanic students. She has a job and a guaranteed right to free speech and liberty.

Say no to medical privacy rule

Under a proposed new federal medical "privacy" rule, government control over our medical records could be a lot closer than we think, and we only have until March 30 to offer our comments to the government.
