Students, alumni discuss career options
Students and professionals met and exchanged ideas Wednesday in the Indiana Memorial Union's Tree Suites. In nearly every room, alumni held panel discussions on a range of topics about the search for a career path.
State to consider curfew
Late nights when minors roam freely through the streets of Bloomington might soon come to an end. Indiana had a curfew law since U.S. District Judge John Tinder found the previous law to be unconstitutional in July. In his decision, he said the law didn't allow First Amendment activities and it didn't have adequate exceptions.
Chivalry 2K(1): Modern manners
So there I was, hiding from the rain in the Stadium White Lot. The wind was blowing, and my poor umbrella just couldn't take it anymore.
When the rich get richer
A majority of Congress as well as President George W. Bush wants to repeal the estate tax (also called the death tax, because it taxes wealth passed on to heirs). The bill was enacted by Congress in 1916, to "break up the swollen fortunes of the rich," legislators said.
ICLU sues city of Gary
The city of Gary has been about dueling with the Ku Klux Klan over a planned rally since mid-January.
Ensuring regard for education
When IU President Myles Brand announced that Bob Knight was fired as IU's head coach, I was surrounded by people who supported or hated the decision, and people who didn't care. I, being an IU basketball fan from the age of 5, respected the decision because Knight had been, in my opinion, forewarned. But I did not like it at all.
Who learned you how to spoke?
The English language just ain't what it used to be. Nowadays the language is butchered to a point where no one can really distinguish what is a real word and what isn't. We've taken slang to a new level, and it is starting to get out of control.
Panel to discuss women in education
A panel is meeting at 4 p.m. today in Ballantine Hall 144 to discuss women in education, especially at IU.
Business school drops in ranking
The Financial Times announced its rankings of graduate business programs world-wide last week. Last year, the magazine ranked IU's Kelley School of Business 29th overall. This year, IU dropped to 42nd, tied with Purdue.
Money alone won't help ISTEP scores
With scores for the Indiana Statewide Testing for Educational Progress (ISTEP) exam on the rise this year among eighth and 10th graders, school programs to help students pass the ISTEP and graduate are working. But scores for third and sixth graders dropped during the same period. One option available to state legislators is to provide more funds to lower-income schools, which have scored consistently lower than schools in higher-incomes areas.
Naps could bring world peace
The world is coming to an end. Chaos will soon ensue. We are all doomed, and there's nothing we can do about it. And so I say it is time for a nap. That's right. It's time to don the pajamas, pull the covers over our heads and drool like little babies again.
