Although it has offered up some practical solutions, recent discussion involving concealed handguns on college campuses implies a slippery shoot-first mentality that carries with it too many questions.-
Recent articles in The Post have proved what I have found throughout my two years at Ohio University ' OU doesn't like diversity. This isn't surprising, considering it's a college in the United States and they all seem to have this problem. Educational institutions in America preach open-mindedness, freedom of speech, intellectual challenge and, most of all, diversity. But each of those has a specific meaning not in alignment with Webster.
Cindy McCain is admired for her startlingly perfect hair and sophisticated style. But according to recent allegations, her husband, Republican presidential nominee John McCain, had a bit of a problem with her heavy makeup. What he allegedly didn't have a problem with was calling her the c-word.

I am writing on behalf of the National MS Society to thank Ohio University's sororities and Center for Community Service for their participation and volunteerism at Walk MS: Athens this past weekend at the Athens Community Center. More than 100 Ohio University students and community members joined together on the morning of April 12 to partake in the three-mile walk along the Hockhocking Adena bike path. Walk MS raised over $7,000 for the National MS Society, whose mission is to create a world free of MS. The funds from this walk will be used to fund direct services to those living with multiple sclerosis throughout Ohio, as well as fund the continued effort to find a cure for MS. Without the help of these students, none of this would have been possible. Thank you.

Congressman Zack Space gathered area leaders to discuss unemployment and alternative energy in Southeast Ohio Friday at an informational meeting at the Inn at Hocking College.
After reading Samantha Tiller's response to Chris Yonker's latest hit (chart-topper), I found myself in the midst of a revelation. For a while I thought people were actually offended by Yonker's columns, that these bright, young college students were really so hopelessly idealistic that they were blind to satire. I was convinced that OU was full of hyper-sensitive 15-year-olds whose bedtimes prevented them from experiencing the rotten pleasure of that unholy block of air-time on Comedy Central, spanning from 11:30 p.m. to midnight, Monday through Thursday. Yes, I am talking about The Colbert Report. And while Yonker may lack the experience and skill of Colbert, I've always found it rather obvious that everything he writes is tongue-in-cheek.
