Football: Bobcats best several records

MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. — After a decade without much to smile about when thinking of Central Michigan, the more experienced Bobcats took the “chip” off of their shoulders and put it back in their opponent’s mascot’s name.

Post Letter: Calmer Halloween resulted from student awareness

In the Oct. 31 issue of The Post, Rebecca McKinsey and fellow Athenians discussed the perceived tameness of the 2011 Ohio University Halloween festivities. She, along with county officials, believed the block party was more passive this year in part to the less-than-stellar weather conditions. I believe, however, the docility of the event was due to police awareness and the “Be Smart. Be Civil. Be Safe.” campaign presented to the students, courtesy of OU.

Post Letter: Students should take STAND against genocide

Ohio University strives to be "the best student-centered learning experience in America." To make that aspiration a reality, students' voices must be heard not only in the classroom but also in the upper echelons of administration.

Post Letter: Students give back through service, not more cash

Reading the Nov. 10 article, “University turns to students for cash,” made my blood pressure rise. I can respect that the university wants to raise funds for very good purposes, but turning to its students is not the way to do it. To say that OU students pay $9,870 for tuition is a veiled attempt to minimize how much is really being spent by your average undergraduate. Beyond the cost of tuition, we also shell out an average of $10,000 a year for two years (at least) to cover the costs of the mandatory university residence and meal plan.

Post Letter: Encourage legislators to support trustee voting

Students need to write to their state legislators and encourage them to support the proposal that will give student trustees suffrage. Succinctly, this proposal will give all student trustees at Ohio’s public universities a right to vote on their respective boards. Currently, students do not share that right with their non-student counterparts. Please write to your legislator to urge him or her to support the measure.

Midterm evaluations provide early feedback

Students are accustomed to bubbling in evaluation forms at the quarter’s end, but some instructors are interested in learning how their students feel about them before the term has even ended.
