Guest columnist: Dangerous mosque rhetoric

By Nick Wallace · Wednesday, Sept. 1,2010 12 a.m.

The proposed plans for a mosque near Ground Zero have lost much of their sound bite sensationalism. The danger to civil liberties, however, lingers. Because the Constitution protects citizens from government intervention in the free exercise of religion, those who set themselves to opposing the mosque project have adopted an anti-minority rhetoric to rally a nation-wide following. This rhetoric ironically has become perhaps the strongest argument in favor of completing the mosque. The keys we need to disassemble the opponents’ arguments are always already present in their own words.

Textbooks: Held captive by publishers' prices

By Zach Ammerman · Wednesday, Sept. 1,2010 12 a.m.

College textbooks are expensive. University students are a captive market for textbooks. At a regular bookstore, if a book is too expensive, it likely won’t be bought. At a college bookstore, however, students are required by their professors to purchase books for their classes regardless of the exorbitant price tag that may be printed on the back of the book. They either have to dig into their wallets and pay an inflated price for a book that isn’t worth half of what it costs or not buy the book and suffer educationally. Students don’t have a choice but to be ripped off.

By Lily Miller · Tuesday, Aug. 31,2010 11:36 p.m.
