I would like to respond to Johnathan Lott's column regarding public schools. As a side note in his column Lott wrote, "I'm still not sure how spending over $100 billion in deficit money on education will be a short-term economic stimulus."
In regards to Thursday's front cover photo I am disgusted that the Alligator decided in its infinite wisdom to publish such a blatant disregard for respect of the dead.
Another Super Bowl came and went, and did anything come from it? Personally, I didn't learn anything new or surprising.
Have you ever heard the words "journalism integrity" before? For the last two years I have watched the Alligator make a mockery out of journalism, but Thursday's story is just too much.
Biofuels, hybrid cars, conservation, polar bears, Al Gore … the list of green initiatives is endless.
After a week of weather more akin to the wondrous landscapes of New Jersey, we can only pray for warmth to retire our winter wardrobe once and for all.

I applaud Alex Andrade for taking pride in the Greek community, but he has been misinformed.

For Michael Phelps, one rip of the ROOR could end up costing him 30 days of freedom.
"Long live democracy. In a size 10."

Michelle Hipps, perhaps you should stop taking yourself so seriously and realize that Facebook is a form of entertainment.
While reading the editorial about Michael Phelps on Tuesday, I was surprised to see such a negative reaction.
