As I walk across campus and hear the buzzing about change and how America's new direction is really going to be a step forward for our country, I find myself fighting back tears at times.
While America revels in this monumental step forward in the American Civil Rights Movement, I feel so much pride, yet my heart is broken.

To the Editor of the Herald,
I am a faculty member writing in response to the recent story proposing a ban on access to YouTube, Facebook and MySpace.
As a faculty member, you might suppose me to be in favor of this, but I am categorically opposed for several reasons.

It's late at night and you hear your front door being kicked in. What do you grab for to protect your home and family? A gun, one of mankind's best tools and inventions; cold sleek steel, brass, gunpowder and lead all together has never been so important until now.

Last week, my roommates and I were robbed at gunpoint of our money and cellphones less than five minutes from UMKC's Volker Campus.
What started as a simple late-night fast food run turned violent and life-threatening in no time at all.
I write this piece in response to another Forum article I wrote earlier this year (see "Local crime cannot be ignored any longer," 9/29/08) and any dissent I may have gotten for it.

It's obvious that the UA tobacco policy is broken. We've been complaining about the unenforceable tobacco ban for about a year and a half now, but its time to stop just complaining. We can finally take action.
If you don't have any time during the next week to send a quick e-mail, don't bother reading the rest of this column because it won't do any good.

So, apparently it was Oswald after all.
In preparation for the 45th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the Discovery Channel assembled a team of experts to re-investigate the shooting. According to its program that aired last night, modern technologies like blood-splatter analysis and computer modeling show that the shots came from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository Building.

Clang, clang, clang goes the ... Beatles?
Surely not. Surely, Lennon, McCartney and Harrison never intended for their good instrumental works to ring by way of near-deafening, amplified bells while America's future scientists, artists and auto mechanics attempt to converse, focus on math lectures or simply survive hangovers.

The 2008 presidential election, which is now decided and placed into America's past, will no doubt show both instances of joy and displeasure of which historians will write.
From both the Democratic and Republican sides of the elections, biographers already are assembling notes, forming outlines and writing their views about what happened the past two years.

Maintaining a neutral stance regarding the recent presidential election, I will celebrate the country's new leader in January as a leap forward and a step away from Bush's reign of senselessness. I know that in my impartial state I am among very few, as most other people feel very passionate about their candidate of choice, but the votes have been counted and the outcome decided, and there is no point in John McCain supporters remaining stubbornly bitter about their loss.

because the white candidate didn't get picked. What really disappointed
me were the comments and excuses I heard and saw afterwards.

Since former President Richard
Meyer announced he would be leaving his position at Webster
University and Neil George took over as the interim president,
The Journal has wondered who would eventually fill the position.
When an announcement was released that a Presidential Search Committee had been created
to finally start accepting applications,
we began to compile a list of qualities we expected in our future university president.

It's beginning to look and feel a lot like the holiday season.
Stores have already begun to display Christmas and Hanukkah wares, even though Thanksgiving is still a ways away. Fall break begins two weeks from now; many of us are counting down the days.
The weather is getting cooler, time to bring out the scarves and mittens.

On Nov. 4 history was made. A black man was elected to be the president elect. The Illinois senator announced in Feb. 2007 that he was seeking the Democratic nomination in the presidential election of 2008.
As the primaries moved along, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were the high runners in the race for the Democratic nomination.

The end is nigh. Or so one might believe when perusing Facebook status bars and newspaper message boards, eavesdropping on barroom conversations or classroom exchanges.
The reaction to Barack Obama's recent victory seems eerily similar to that of the O.J.

It's official. Sen. Barack Obama, or should I say President Obama, has won the 2008 presidential election. Early in the vote count, it was obvious that Obama was quickly on his way to victory, winning Pennsylvania, Florida, Ohio and other battleground stat

Tree branches are bare, a new chill fills the air and the once populated Quad now sits empty on most afternoons.
Thanksgiving break is right around the corner and just in time, too. Most students and faculty are exhausted by the long and arduous semester, and even some of the best students are feeling the burnout.

When I saw "Sister Mary Ignatius," my first thoughts were that Speak Out was going to be getting a lot of calls over the weekend. I could certainly see how someone could find themselves offended by the material. But I never dreamed that it would result in a fiasco that could change the way the theatre and dance department chooses their productions.

Would it be surprising if tomorrow you and every other Americans were issued a new identification card that had all your personal information with a spy chip embedded in it, obliterating your freedom to
life as an American citizen? Well it's certainly coming if we don't do anything about it.
