| 'He
made my life hell' -- a personal account of domestic
violence
It goes unseen. It goes unmentioned. It leads women,
men and children into depression and a constant state
of fear. It's domestic abuse and it comes in more forms
than you would think. Sexual, physical, emotional, psychological:
four areas no one wants anyone else to control or violate.

Hey
there, thoughtless sneezers -- cover your mouths!
Aaaahhhh-chew! The girl next to me
sneezes without covering her mouth. Don't breathe for
30 seconds, or casually breath into your jacket to avoid
the pollutants of her germ-infested sneeze. / By

is peaceful here thanks to law officers
The mention of these people may conjure up images of
dread and resentment rather than gratitude. / By

Increase
tuition? Let's get to the root of the problem
The truth of the matter is that the blame for the proposed
43 percent increase can most accurately be placed on
the students themselves. / By James Mouritsen
Ripped
off at her favorite haunt, woman thinks twice about
trust

in this Happy Valley are dampening the reputation. /

We
are the Arabs -- People like you
We sit at the Carousel at a circular table eating and
conversing about modern issues. About things concerning
today's world. About our individual countries. How we
wish we could go home and visit the families we haven't
seen in years. Who are we? We are the Arabs of USU.

Bigger
not necessarily better -- just ask the roaches
After bumping and colliding with each other in our one
bedroom closet that we called an apartment for almost
a year, my husband and I decided that it was time to
gather up our Wal-mart belongings, stuff them into half-torn
cardboard boxes and relocate to a more spacious apartment.

The
power of a woman's vote resonates today as it did in
1848
Women enjoy more constitutional rights and freedoms
today than any other time, but in order to appreciate
the freedoms of today, it is important to remember the
sacrifices of yesterday. / By Stephanie H. Olsen
Beslan,
Bush and my five-point plan for protection
I personally don't care why they did it. I just want
them dead. / By Mark Grammer
A
Utah Democrat's optimisim in the face of apathy
Utah Democrats are poorly organized in this blood-red
state. Time and time again I was reminded of this over
the summer. The last straw happened the other day when
I tried to contact the president of the College Democrats.
