...state in your editorial that the resident deans suffer from severe conflicts of interests in being the “advocate” and “prosecutor” of the student. Resident deans serve neither purpose, and it is a misstatement to claim that they do. They are officers of the university who represent the College to the student and the student to the College. The Board attempts to understand what happened and to determine if a rule of the faculty was violated. They do not see this as an adversarial relationship, since every student who appears before...

As of late October, a Field Poll found that the pro-gay side was winning 49% to 44%, with 7% undecided. But gays could not quite make it to 49% on Election Day, meaning a few people may have been unwilling to tell pollsters that they intended to vote against equal marriage...
Despite opposition from law enforcement agencies and several health organizations, voters in Michigan passed a measure that will allow patients who suffer from "debilitating medical conditions" to use marijuana for medical purposes with their physician's approval. The decision, which passed with 63% of the vote, makes Michigan the 13th U.S. state - and first state in the Midwest - to legalize medical marijuana...
