Should you reward a disobedient child with candy? No - at least, you aren't a good parent if you do. So, should you reward a bum for his laziness with your spare change? No - at least, you aren't a good citizen if you do.
You may ask yourself, "What does this guy know about kids?" or, "Why does this guy not like homeless people?"
To begin with, I have always known there are a lot of homeless people in Philadelphia; you see them around 7- Eleven all the time.

Racial Remarks
To the Editor:
The front-page article "Racial Remarks directed at Obama supporters" (May 2) fails to meet even the most basic standards of objective and balanced journalism.

"It is important to remember that SAFAC is a subsidizing funding source and exists to help student organizations meet some of their financial expectations. SAFAC should never be depended upon as financial means for any student organization to exist. We strongly encourage student organizations to look at other funding options such as fundraising, soliciting donations, and collecting dues if they are not satisfied with their SAFAC Allocation," Joseph Gonzalez, advisor for the Student Activity Fee Allocation Committee, wrote in a letter to The Triangle.

The alleged racial epithets that several fraternity members made to African-American supporters of Presidential hopeful Barack Obama last week are deplorable and inexcusable, to say the least. The situation, however, has become even more appalling because of the college's sluggish response to the incident.

I sit in my chair, writing this, my final Whit article ever, surrounded by a bevy of activity: the sound of the printer churning out page proofs, the melodic clicking of the computer keys, the frustrated shouts of an assistant editor laying out copy and the laughter of another doing the same.

I've often wondered how an outspoken liberal and a secular Christian wound up at a small, conservative, devoutly Catholic university.
Whenever I've ventured out with the Quiz Bowl team or College Democrats to other, bigger schools, I found myself thinking 'Now these are universities.

The year was 2004. It was a simpler time. Usher's "Yeah!" played on the radio, you never had to worry about your drunken actions becoming a Facebook album, and Britney Spears was hot. But most importantly, I started college.

I'm not one to complain (although my parents may tell you otherwise). I rarely send food back to the kitchen at restaurants, no matter how cold, and I don't whine when a professor switches a deadline or assigns extra work.
