After reading Chris Edwards' extremely critical article regarding George W. Bush and his bid for the presidency ("The wrong president, Nov. 10), I, once again, discovered how ignorant some people can be.

By Alyson Brodsy · Monday, Nov. 13,2000 11:24 p.m.

The plans for the new science building concern me as they seem to include the destruction of part of the woods between Ballantine Hall and the Chemistry building. I am very surprised by this.

Again those "chosen" for the IU Hall of Fame have been announced. Wonder who does the choosing and what are the criteria. If anyone knows how the selections are made, I sure would like to know.

By Alyson Brodsy · Monday, Nov. 13,2000 11:17 p.m.

This letter is in response to the column, "Peace in the Mideast will not happen," written Oct. 27. It is true that most of us in this nation are somehow influenced by the media, especially in terms of perception of world events.

Others attack Israel

By Alyson Brodsy · Monday, Nov. 13,2000 11:16 p.m.

Occupied territories, huh. The spoils of war have throughout history often involved land. Not surprisingly, the land goes to the winner, especially when the winner is the one that has been attacked.

I enjoy performing cunnilingus on my girlfriend but I tend to salivate too much, which curtails her enjoyment. She says it's too "messy." Any thoughts on how I can overcome this problem?

Team awaits decision

By John Koluder · Monday, Nov. 13,2000 12:05 a.m.

Once again, the men's soccer team made history this weekend. But not the way they wanted to. In a season that has had its share of ups and downs, Friday's 1-0 loss at the hands (or feet) of Ohio State in the second round of the Big Ten tournament was the team's most upsetting result to date. After the game, the Hoosiers seemed to be in a state of shock. Part of it was because it was their first loss in more than five years against a conference opponent. And part of it might have been because the Buckeyes were celebrating as if they had won the National Championship.
