Our View: SGA discusses five minute grace period for tardy students

The proposed addition to the student handbook would keep teachers from locking students out of the classroom until the five-minute halo period had expired.


Non-fish pets do not belong in dorms

The animal epidemic on campus is one that seems to go beyond cats roaming the parking lots. Students have been sneaking unapproved animals into residence halls. I've heard stories of puppies being hidden in University Hall and Collegiate Park, snakes in Arkansas Hall, even guinea pigs occasionally hang out in Kays.


Letter to the editor
