Craig A. Butler's Feb. 14 column, "DNA Code is a Pandora's Box," is on target when it comes to genetic discrimination. When it comes to cloning, except for the technicalities of how it's done, he has no clue.
A recent letter in the Daily Lobo on the subject of cockfighting encouraged New Mexico to join the rest of the civilized world. However, I believe New Mexico has made a name for itself by its barbaric, uncivilized nature.
I know many people must have had some kind of unpleasant experience at the Bursar's Office, but I think mine might very well be the worst, most persistent mistreatment a student can get.
On a warm evening in August, a lively crowd waving bright blue "Gore/Lieberman" signs and chanting "More with Gore" took over UNM campus
Editor, How can we stand here and say that making money in excess of what one individual can use appropriately is more important than caring for individuals with less money, opportunity and means. We must invest in human capital!
Editor, It is unbelievable to me that we have this same discussion on cockfighting in our Legislature every year. That this barbarism is allowed in New Mexico and two other states is reprehensible.
The holy war has begun. On a recent edition of the CBS program "Face the Nation," Stephen Goldsmith, picked by President Bush to head the new office of Faith Based and Community Initiatives, sounded the official call to arms.
From reading Jeremy Reynalds' column, it appears that he and Rep. Joe Thompson either have evidence the Democrats are actively perpetrating voter fraud or are simply making up a vicious lie to make their point.
While I'm glad to see Jordan Lewis of Tulane University has newfound respect for vegetarians, I believe him when he says, "I may never comprehend it," especially if his sole idea of vegetarianism is vegetable broth.
Behold, our dear and costly ally, Israel, whom we can refuse nothing, now has a war criminal as head of state!
We live in exciting times for medical research. On Monday, details of the human genome — the DNA sequence that defines a human being — were released to the public.
Recently on the Opinion page and on the New Mexico Daily Lobo’s Web site message board, some people were advocating both the sanctioning of professor Richard Berthold and stopping Jeremy Reynalds’ weekly column.
Any day now, I'm expecting to receive in the mail the sugar bowl and creamer in their pattern that I sent to Tom and Nicole on the occasion of their marriage.
Editor, Jeremy Reynalds’ Feb. 9 column regarding Rep. Joe Thompson’s bill requiring photo identification at polling places hit the nail on the head.
I watched the XFL last weekend and was pleasantly surprised. I liked it, at least mostly.
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.
