For his first time at IU in the last 25 years, Paul O’Neill, former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, drew in a crowd that barely fit into the School of Public and Environmental Affairs Atrium on Tuesday night for his speech on “Energy and the Environment: Global Solution for National Problems.”

Blood bank discrimination

Blood centers aren’t showing a latent “homophobia,” or “Europhobia,” or “prostitute-ophobia” by discriminating against these people; they are doing their due diligence to prevent the transmission of diseases – most of them untreatable and/or incurable – known or thought to be spread by blood.

Money-driven closing

It is no secret that we are living in a money-driven society, but this is also a society that is based on some values that supersede the pursuit of profit.

Don’t forget

The most historically significant moment since Dec. 7, 1941, received at best negligible and at worst non-existent coverage of the attacks eight years prior.
