- Registering defeats the purpose (So, What's my Point? Nakasha Ahmad)
While I have penned this column for almost three years, I've never felt the need to write about the quirks of the institution across the street. Saint Mary's (and the world in general) has never left me lacking new fodder for this column.
- Quote of the Day (Gore Vidal author)
"The worst thing that can be said about pornography is that it leads not to `anti-social' acts but to the reading of more pornography."
- Abortion is not the answer for selfish inconveniences (Letter to the Editor )
For the first time that I can remember, I agree completely with the views expressed in an Inside Column. Dustin Ferrell's piece, "The right to choose facts,"(April 11) gives an adequate portrayal of how selfish some would-be mothers are when they claim to be "sparing a child from a life of hardship" by having an abortion.
- Panel to discuss ROTC presence at Notre Dame (Letter to the Editor )
On Wednesday, Pax Christi-ND will host a discussion on peace. Peace — specifically how we are to come to peace, especially in light of the teaching of Catholic Tradition. These are difficult times for peace, true peace, yet they give us the opportunity to discuss how we might best accomplish Jesus' ends while remaining faithful to His lived example. We have two competing ideas in the Church's history regarding how we might most properly come to true peace.
- Rape dialogue facilitates awareness on campus (Letter to the Editor )
Here is a hopefully somewhat educated opinion on rape. In response to Joshua Warner's letter (April 13), while I agree that discussing any point beyond its usefulness is harmful, I'm so glad to see this issue finally making the papers. This topic is avoided like the plague here, and it's about time people started to realize that it's a real problem. Rape does exist at Notre Dame, in proportions comparable to all other colleges.
- Administrators restrict free speech (Editorial )
From Father Theodore Hesburgh's expulsion of five student protesters in 1969 to the present, suppression of free speech on this campus is nothing new.
