Students have say in library improvements

By Patricia A. Wand · Monday, Oct. 25, 2004

University librarian Patricia A. Wand writes in response to recent criticism of AU's library. She states: "The University administration and library personnel continually strive to strengthen the collections, increase access to electronic resources and improve the facility. Students can be proud of their library, and we challenge those who think otherwise to come to the library and let us help you find what you need. Bender Library's reputation for being "weak" has outlived reality."

By Paul Perry · Monday, Oct. 25, 2004

Dem-O-Cat says: Stop the war on women

By Catherine Kozak | October 21

There's a lot of rhetoric and hypocrisy in politics. I don't think any student on this campus would dispute that, and if they did, they'd be na?ve or lying. However, there comes a point when enough is enough, when it's just not funny anymore, when the line is crossed.
