Men's tennis team captures share of regular-season conference championship

An undefeated trip to San Diego helped the No. 45-ranked Horned Frogs claim a share of their second straight Mountain West Conference regular-season championship.

The three-match road trip began Thursday when the Horned Frogs handed No. 41 New Mexico its first conference loss of the season with a 5-2 victory. The Lobos can still claim a share of the regular-season championship if they defeat San Diego State University at home April 21.

Chancellor Victor Boschini said Monday that the negative public reaction that prompted the decision to close the new Living Learning Communities was not targeted at approved housing for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered and questioning students and their supporters.

Boschini said he received many reactions regarding the announcement of the new LLCs, most of which were centered on concerns that the communities foster separatism.

It has come to my attention that there will be gay living quarters on campus, sanctioned by the university. This is an accommodation to immoral living. Would the university allow men and women to room together on campus?

Where are the voices of the students?

Students, this your chance to voice your opinion. This your chance to stand tall. Please stand up for what you believe. Have a debate.

Golf's superstar will succeed in bid for fifth green jacket

The greatest athlete of our generation will take to the course today at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia. And make no doubt about it, Tiger Woods is going to win the 73rd Masters Tournament this weekend.

Tiger's battle back from major knee surgery has been well documented. He returned to golf amongst unprecedented fanfare Feb. 26 at the Accenture Match Play Championship in Arizona. His bid for a triumphant, victorious return fell short that weekend as he fell in the second round of match play.

It is the most wonderful time of the year. I am not speaking of Christmas, but rather of the national holiday that Americans hold very dear to their hearts: tax day.

Indeed, the carnage that is April 15 and the frenzied weeks leading up to it are a bittersweet time. Some rejoice in getting small amounts of their hard-earned dollars back while others, myself included, deal with further federal wallet draining.

However, several external factors are making it more difficult than usual to pay up this year.

Newspapers are dying.

Thanks, I've got it. Personally, I'm sick of people telling me newspaper industry is dying and then wondering why I get annoyed. How would you like it if I said your job was irrelevant?
