"Blind Dating," one of the films shown last weekend at the first annual AFI Dallas International Film Festival, was not what it claimed to be. Don't be fooled by the charming previews you may see for this movie. Like so many films, the trailer is utterly deceiving and features only the few tolerable moments present in the film. (0) comments
The freedom of speech is in jeopardy and public institutions of higher education are responsible. This is an issue that concerns our campus, and affects every member of this university. Yet, you continue to give your silent consent to this travesty. Whether it is blindness in believing the propaganda of the university or you are just too afraid to say something, you have remained silent about this issue. (1) comment
As the '08 presidential campaign begins to pick up speed, I can't help but wonder what the heck the Democrats are doing. Now if you ask the average Democrat, they would tell you they desperately want a Democrat in the White House in '08, but if you observe the actions of the Democratic Congress, it looks as if they are purposely sabotaging themselves.

While scanning through yesterday morning's Reuters news wire, our critical reading skills were put to the test. A story came up regarding three Yale students who were arrested for burning an American flag. Of course, as journalists, our love of freedom of speech flared up. (1) comment
Warning to all students: Per request of the state legislature, refrain from enhancing your education by taking extra classes inside of your 4-year degree plan. Here in Texas, we frown upon that. So maybe I didn't take the above warning verbatim from a state mandate or from the minutes of the Texas House of Representatives, but I assure you that it's paraphrased directly from the stipulations of the $1,000 Tuition Rebate (note: in case you're like me and weren't aware that any rebate ever existed until recently, don't fret because you're probably not eligible).
