Columnist is cynical moron

By Ryan Weiss | Mar. 30, 2010

CJ Pruner’s column on Monday regarding Jordan Johnson’s political legacy had a few minor errors that I want him to acknowledge. One, while it is implied that the article is written by CJ Pruner, I cannot help but feel that others deserve credit for its content, namely, Michael Moore movies and malt liquor. Additionally, the article concludes by saying that he is a “journalism junior.” I would like to recommend a more appropriate description, perhaps “cynical moron.”

Stickers encourage voters

By Ryan Weiss | Sep. 27, 2009

Friday's Alligator contained a four-paragraph diatribe concerning the distribution of "I Voted" stickers during Student Government elections. How can one be so petty? We have students trying to ensure the safety of the community, to save language programs and to allocate money to student groups, and you go after stickers? Those of us in Greek houses know that it is not "coercion" that goes on, but rather encouragement to vote in SG elections. With such a small percentage of students voting in these elections, it is shameful that you resent Greek participation. Sen. Gary Benedix, you seem pleased with yourself that you "have it all figured out."
