Wyatt Kanyer's "Christians unfit to judge" was difficult to understand because he never defined terms, and it was splattered with his own judgments. In any opinion article or argument, one must always define the terms he or she is arguing.

Nowhere in the article was Kanyer's definition of "judgment" clearly identified. Another term that was not clearly defined was "homosexual lifestyle." This may have been because there is no single definition of a homosexual lifestyle. Just as there are uncountable heterosexual lifestyles, there are innumerable homosexual lifestyles.

Apparently, the "small government" conservative state of Texas feels as if driving isn't hard enough without a lot of laws to worry about.

In April 2009 a different version of the most famous line in literary history emerged - "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in want of brains must be in want of more brains." Wait, what? Whose idea was this?

The recent displeasure expressed by the university's administration over Anheuser-Busch's marketing of purple and white Bud Light beer cans to students is warranted, but the fact remains that college-age people are going to drink it regardless of color or team affiliation.

The university makes a valid argument that it doesn't want the visual connection between its team colors and alcohol, considering all of its connotations to binge drinking and alcoholism. After all, the university is supposed to be an institution based on education.

Chancellor Victor Boschini said Thursday the university has hired an executive search firm to find a replacement for outgoing athletics director Danny Morrison, who announced his resignation Wednesday to work as team president for the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League.

Boschini said he is not putting any time constraints on finding the new director.

"I'm just trying to get the best person I can," Boschini said.

The earlier EC-6 program had been replaced by the EC-4 program, which qualifies students to teach through the fourth grade.
