I am elated to know that my University will not renew its Athletics Department contract with Hilton LAX, a contract that expires Sept. 30, as confirmed by Dr. Jonathan Rothchild, Chair of the Frank Sullivan Social Justice Committee. I am uplifted still more by the memory of so many students and others in the LMU community who took part in the several picket lines and marches in support of the worker-called boycott over the last few years.

In a moment of spontaneous self-expression and fiery self-defense, singer Jordin Sparks veered off script to deliver a bold line that will undoubtedly find its place in MTV's Video Music Awards history books: "It's not bad to wear a promise ring because not everybody, guy or girl, wants to be a slut!"
Now, hold on Jordin.

At the end of this year, I will (hopefully) be one of a few lucky souls who (successfully) makes it in and out of Cal Poly Pomona in a mere (gasp) four years.
I'll save the teary-eyed reflection for my farewell letter, for today is a day to look ahead.
If you're noticing some changes around your (favorite) campus newspaper, it's because the fine batch of students that run this show are continuously trying to improve the quality of The Poly Post.

In political circles, Republican presidential candidate John McCain has been dubbed by many as "the maverick" for his perceived straight talk and stance on many issues, but "the gambler" may be a more apt title.
McCain's pick of little-known Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin was a bold move that surprised me, because I had heard about all of the usual suspects, such as Sen.

The question of the necessity for PCC police to be armed remains unanswered, perhaps because no one is sure how to measure it.

Not a day goes by where I don't hear something on the radio or read a bumper sticker about the upcoming presidential election. It makes my head spin. I've never been one to discuss politics, let alone write an article about it, but the past four years have changed this fact a little.

Breasts are often presented in American media as objects of desire, but October is national Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it is time to think about breasts in a different way. Breast cancer is mainly found in women over 40, however younger women-and even men-can develop the disease.

Friday's first presidential debate gave
millions
of Americans their first opportunity to hear the same sound bites and attacks the candidates have been spewing since summer.
The biggest story of the week is that the debate almost didn't happen; John McCain urged Barack Obama to postpone the event so that they could focus on the most devastating economic crisis since the Great Depression.

Faculty need to take action to protect students against the rising cost of college textbooks.
Over the past two decades, textbook prices have increased faster than inflation.

In pop culture today we are bombarded with images of stupid busty blondes. The films "Legally Blonde," the more recent "House Bunny," the show "King of the Hill," the 90s teen hit TV series and movie "Clueless" and even a comic strip that recently appeared in the Loyolan all depict stupid, albeit endearing, well-endowed blondes. Similarly, the "blonde joke" helps to further this stereotype of blondes as stupid.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed a bill last week that bars all companies doing business in Sudan from bidding on California state contracts. AB 498, sponsored by Assemblyman Ed Hernandez (D-West Covina), is meant to send a message to the government of Sudan, which for the past six years has been victimizing its own citizens in the western region of Darfur.

The first debate is in the can and apparently, I got it all wrong.
The most compelling part of the debate came before it even began, when a haggard John McCain crawled back in front of the press, tail between his legs, and said he would come out and play after all, his bluff called by the suddenly granite-infused Barack Obama.

When I told a professor after the 2006 midterm elections that it was good that the Republicans lost, he disagreed, saying, "It's better to change the party from within." He thought they could reform while still a majority. I was not so sure at the time. When the Democrats are in power, it seems easier for Republicans to remember what their party stands for: limited government and individual freedom.

This fall, selfish factory farms are trying ruthlessly to preserve their right to abuse animals in the face of animal rights initiative, Proposition 2. Prop 2 is the Standards for Confining Farm Animals Initiatives Statute, and states that veal calves, egg-laying hens and pregnant pigs should be allowed to lie down, stand up, fully extend their limbs and turn around freely.

The first of three presidential debates of the season covered foreign policy and national security, which go hand in hand according to Jim Lehrer of PBS' "Newshour" and host of the debates.
Democratic candidate Barrack Obama kept trying to pin Republican opponent John McCain as a co-conspirator of the Bush Administration which resulted in a failed economy.

We need universal healthcare - not some watered-down Republican imitation.
A big topic of discussion involving Barack Obama and John McCain is health care - ever an issue for voters and citizens of this country. Health care is way too expensive, and premiums have risen four times faster than wages over the past six years.

After eight years of "his holiness" occupying office, how much worse could this nation possibly do? Oh wait, I forgot, the Governor of Alaska could occupy the Vice Presidency…but that's not so bad.
