With all due respect to The Carroll News, last week’s “Political Voices” section was incredibly one-sided. Alix Audi, who wrote for Democrats, offered a balanced assessment of races while Nick Tribuzzo wrote a completely partisan piece that is something you would read on FoxNews.com. Here is what should have run for the Democratic side to…

Letter to the Editor: The most impressive midges
Let me begin by stating that I am a long-time supporter of this award-winning newspaper and appreciate all the hard work put forth from everyone involved that allows this paper to be made available week after week.
However, I must comment on the inappropriateness of the, “That’s What See Said” column that appeared in the…
Letter to the Editor: Blue Streaks unite
Being a student-athlete on John Carroll’s campus is a rather popular thing. Walking anywhere around campus, you will run into at least one or two athletes.
Tennis, baseball, soccer, softball, volleyball, basketball, cross country, track and football athletes might range in athletic talent, but we all have something in common. We all compete in one…
Letter to the Editor: Quiet in the library
I wonder if at upcoming academic committee meetings for next year, suggestions will be entertained about serving alcohol in the school library. You know, a typical bar set up to be squeezed in right next to the expresso counter where students can slam shots and have specially-designed mugs filled to the brim with frosty goodness.…
YourView: A Call to Action: Relay for Life
First, I would like to congratulate all those students and FSA involved in the planning and production of John Carroll University’s Relay For Life 2010. Their countless hours of hard work and effort placed into one 18-hour event raised more than $38,000.
I honestly enjoyed the event, but I was thoroughly disappointed with the John…
Letter to the Editor: Wake up and grow up
As a John Carroll University alumnus, I was extremely disappointed to discover you published Mr. Bob Seeholzer’s bitter tirade about reverse sexism (3/25/10 issue).
It was of no more intellectual substance than a drunken Facebook blog (which, it seems, is about the highest form of communication I see many young men and women possess).
Perhaps…
Letter to the Editor: Fall conspiracy?
I thought the John Carroll administration said they don’t sweep things under the rug. From what I’ve seen recently, they most definitely do. Literally.
Fall has always been my favorite season. Besides the much needed break from the scorching heat and uncomfortable humidity in non-air-conditioned dorms, there’s just something unexplainable about the earthy colors and…
Letter to the Editor: Exposing yourself
I like to gloat as much as anyone, and in my years of being a borderline egomaniac, I’ve learned an important lesson: if you are going to talk big, you have to walk big. That being said, I feel that Maximilian Flessner failed to sufficiently support his boasts in his column last week. These flaws are due for “MAXimum Exposure.”
Letter to the Editor: Don’t be so harsh on the freshmen
With the incoming class of freshmen comes many things; among them is an inevitable article from an upperclassmen giving “advice” (or essentially just whining) about the incoming JCU class.
Look, I’m a fellow member of 2009; we were all freshmen at one point and we were all confused at where to go and how to…
