Viewpoint
- Expansion of WVFI was the right choice (Editorial )
The move of WVFI from limited campus Internet broadcast to unlimited global Internet broadcast will give Notre Dame students a chance to demonstrate their professionalism and improve their skills. Nothing prepares students better for careers in broadcast after college than the real world experience they can gain at a student radio station. WVFI's global broadcasts will give students this opportunity.

- Quote of the Day (William Jefferson Clinton president)
"I'm tired of people in Washington lecturing us about family values. Our families have values. The government has no values."
- Supporting a culture of death (Letter to the Editor )
Abe Lincoln once said that to sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men.
- Disagreeing with the Gore endorsement (Letter to the Editor )
I cannot disagree more strongly with your endorsement of Vice President Al Gore for President. I would like to take this opportunity to explain why Governor George W. Bush is a better choice than Mr. Gore is. You first mention Mr. Gore's plan to use the surplus to pay down the national debt. I submit that the surplus is a result of collecting more taxes than necessary. Therefore, any excess taxes should be returned to us, the taxpayers, in the form of tax cuts. I think you are mistaken in saying that Mr. Bush's plan "encourages Americans to rely on the government for their retirement." Quite the opposite, Mr. Bush's plan allows for investment into private funds instead of relying on the current system that produces lower than inflation returns, which inherently decreases the value of each dollar put into the system.
