The April 7, 2009, article "Students start petition against concealed-gun bill," ends by stating that University of Texas at Austin sophomore Jackie Mintz, one of the two students who put together the petition, -said she doesn't mind that people carry guns as long as she has the choice to avoid places where guns can be carried. But this wouldn't be the case on a college campus, she said.

"I don't have a choice," Mintz said. "I have to sit in my English class if I want to pass the class and graduate."

Last September, when he was running for office, President Barack Obama made a promise that families making under $250,000 wouldn't see a tax increase of any kind.

After a sluggish start, Texas Tech responded with three unanswered goals, including one with a minute remaining in the first half. The Red Raiders led 3-2 with just under 20 minutes left to play in the game.

Bumper stickers are a wildly popular form of expression in America, but I view them as a drive-by offering of an unasked-for opinion.

Having strong convictions is great, but handing them out without a chance for dispute is both spineless and annoying.

Last week, the international community witnessed the latest session of the G-20, hosted in London.

The summit, which reunited the finance ministers and central bank governors of 19 countries, plus the European Union, had a tough agenda to tackle: draft a plan of action that would ease the devastating effect of the financial crisis through coordinated stimulus packages, the revamping of the rules of global financial markets and the halting of protectionist measures.
