Editor, Just when I thought the level of absurdity regarding the Sigma Chi parking lot fiasco couldn't possibly increase, along came Joel Nossoff's successful letter in Wednesday's Daily Lobo.
Today I came to empathize with vegetarians.
State Rep. Joe Thompson, R-Albuquerque, had a good idea for a new bill. Passage of his proposed legislation should have been a no-brainer. However, like most good things proposed by House Republicans in the Democrat-controlled New Mexico State Legislature, it wasn't to be and the bill sadly died a premature death at the hands of House Democrats last week.
Once again, I write on behalf of the portion of the UNM community that feels acts of racism have no place on this campus. Suzanne Heaton's Feb. 8 letter was appalling to me and many other students on campus. I cannot believe the things that people are willing to say to the general public and think that they are right.
Recently, I was eating dinner at La Posada Dining Hall and decided to take a bagel back to my dorm room as a snack for later that night.
Editor, Last week while I was waiting for the shuttle, I heard students complain about how long it took to catch a bus.
Let’s talk about investing wisely. It was a chilly Friday night and I was out with a friend at Albuquerque’s best Italian joint, the Macaroni Grill.
Editor, I love how UNM just spent $20,000-$25,000 to Campus Parking Management Associates to have it determine our parking woes and how to fix them! I would have done it for free! CPMA came up with “add more parking spaces.” How brilliant!
Editor, UNM's official seal offends me. I would like to use this letter as an opportunity to express why I am offended by it and to ask other UNM community members what they think about certain images that appear in the seal.
Editor, It is truly appalling to me that UNM has allowed the Sigma Chi fraternity incident to detract from its purpose "to serve the educational needs of the citizens of the State, and those of the nation and the world ."
If you were unable to leave a small cluster of buildings, stuck with the most reprehensible scum imaginable, for 30 years, how would you feel?
I would like to offer some comments in response to James Burbank's Jan. 30 letter in the Daily Lobo.
Despite what Richard Berthold says, it is not inconsistent for his freedom of speech to be protected and that he be reprimanded for unprofessional conduct.
Editor, I am writing in response to Jeremy Reynalds' Feb. 2 column, "Johnson's Ideas Detrimental."
It seems that whenever a tragedy occurs, such as teen suicides, high school shootings or murders, they are blamed on music and movies and sometimes result in lawsuits.
Editor, How can we stand here and say that making an excess amount of money is more important than caring for individuals with less means, money and opportunity. We must invest in human capital!

Editor, During the past month, few environmental issues have garnered as much attention as the fate of the Artic National Wildlife Refuge.
I am glad I have no car. I would not keep a car if you gave me one for free. For more than 12 years, I have had no car here, and I enjoy this freedom.
New Mexico was in the national spotlight Monday when — I’m embarrassed to say — Republican Gov. Gary Johnson took to the national airwaves yet again on ABC’s “Nightline” in his seemingly endless criticism of our country’s war on drugs.
