Every Monday through Friday, I habitually bolt out of my morning lectures pick up the day's copy of the Chronicle. As a freshman, I am proud to say that I have grown a passion and a love for our...
Anyone who has played a game in the Street Fighter Alpha series knows that one's -ism heavily influences how they approach the game. The same is arguably true about one's relation to various...
Meredith Shiner's Oct. 28 column "Soulja Roy's night shames Duke's Blue-White"-in addition to, as she admits, being blasphemous-completely misses the mark. Midnight Madness-like events, from the...
I'm sure it must have been shocking to read Andrew V. Kayes' Oct. 31 letter to the editor, "Choose carefully Nov. 4," and learn that Sen. Barack Obama is completely OK with the idea of allowing...
I don't do cocaine either, but if it were chocolate... This seems to be what Greg Morrison has inadvertently implied in his Oct. 29 column, "A sad tale of cocaine and Congress." Morrison confuses...
With all respect due to Matt Graham, his Oct. 29 column, "Conservative hypocrisy," was quite insulting and foolish. He begins by setting up Barry Goldwater as the only true ideal of conservatism,...
I am a fierce political independent; I stand fairly centrist on most things and I have voted for both major parties as well as some independents in various past elections. I would urge my fellow...
Duke Student Government would like to remind students to have a safe, fun Halloween. We also want to encourage students to take advantage of the events happening on campus, rather than traveling...
The Chronicle Editorial Board's Oct. 22 endorsement of Michael Munger for governor was impractical at best. What was more troubling was the lack of context in its recommendation of Beverly...
Let me say one thing in response to The Chronicle Editorial Board's Oct. 27 endorsement of David Price for 4th District House seat: I hope you are not North Carolina voters. Did you research Price...
Thanks, first, for your Oct. 23 article about and interview with Savion Glover before his performance last Sunday of "Bare Soundz." The Chronicle's support of Duke Performances programming is, as...
As a Duke alum, I'm incredibly disappointed in The Chronicle Editorial Board's endorsement of David Price. The only justification can be that the Editorial Board suffers from the same kind of...
The Chronicle Editorial Board continues to discredit itself with its election commentary, most recently in its Oct. 22 endorsement of Kay Hagan for Senate. The board, composed I suspect of largely...
I was unpleasantly surprised by John Schneider's Oct. 22 column, "Please don't vote," encouraging members of the Duke community to purposely pass up their opportunity to vote in the upcoming...
I have read various reports in The Chronicle that Duke students still wish to attend Chapel Hill's Halloween celebration this year in spite of the fact that Chapel Hill has decided to downsize the...
After reading your article titled "Prescriptions no check on drugs for some" in the Oct. 23 issue, I wanted to make sure people understand just how deadly the misuse and abuse of prescription drugs...
I truly hate to criticize a process meant to bring progress and modernization to our class enrollment, but the current condition of ACES bookbagging should be considered an embarrassment. The old...
John Schneider's Oct. 22 column, "Please don't vote," should not be taken seriously (despite his insistence that we do just that). Winston Churchill said, "Democracy is the worst form of...
The Oct. 20 Chronicle Editorial Board endorsement of Sen. Barack Obama was so filled with empty bromides, I wondered if it were written by the man himself. Although The Chronicle Editorial Board...
In response to the Oct. 21 editorial "DukeEngage makes headway," I want to commend The Chronicle Editorial Board for its well-informed and thoughtful observations, above and beyond other...
