I’m not sure why everyone is so up in arms about “Pink Slime” meat.
While Gov. Mitt Romney, vying for the Republican nomination, campaigned in Illinois, he spoke to a crowd at the University of Chicago. Answering a question concerning the extreme expenses of student loans and the availability of employment opportunities, Romney said, “I don’t see how a young American can vote for a Democrat.”
For the first time since the class of 2012 arrived at Baylor, students were able to enjoy their spring break on the second full week of March.
Spring break is officially over and it’s time for students to get back to the reality of business as usual: homework, papers, projects and exams, while also making a point to enjoy what time we have left at Baylor this year.
Most students complain. We complain about homework. We complain about lacking sleep. We complain about early classes. Heck, we even complain about afternoon classes.
The DREAM Act and its supporters have caused a stir in the melting pot, and it’s time for Baylor to get cooking, too. Student Senate asked the university to take a public stance supporting the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act with a bill passed March 8, and it is indeed time for the university to do so.
I read online that the Baylor Student Senate supports the DREAM Act – a bill that would provide a path to citizenship for young people brought here illegally by their parents before the age of 15. Other criteria include: being of good character, having completed two years of university or military service and having lived in the United States for at least five years.
It takes a lot to sway me away from writing about sports. Unfortunately, it has happened.
