Have you ever received a grade you thought was above or below what your calculations would suggest?
Most instructors provide for some leeway in their syllabi for a more subjective form of grading, usually under the term "participation."

The holiday season is aimed to bring about love, hope, charity and thankfulness. But somewhere between decimal and dollar amounts, people, disillusioned by the consumerism and superficiality of the holidays, often lose sight of these once-cherished values.

Hardly a December goes by that I don't think about Jacqueline Eckerle and Karen Morrison. Both died 29 years ago on December 3, 1979 in Cincinnatti. Both were 15. They were crushed by a crowd while trying to get in to see The Who at Riverfront Coliseum concert. Nine others were also trampled to death.

All of the buzz this week has been about economic woes facing a country with thoughts about bailing out the auto industry. For once, the government needs to say no.
The main reason the government needs to do this is to avoid risk, and duck from a moral hazard.

I'm from a place that's too busy struggling to waste too much time attacking others for trivial reasons. I guess that's why I was so offended by Lindsay Fiori's 'column' (I use the term loosely) about smokers from the Nov. 25 issue of the Tribune.

When I came to the United States twelve years ago, I wasn't particularly happy to be here. A reunion with my immediate family could not overshadow the fact that I found myself in a strange land on the other side of the world, where the language was incomprehensible and the culture was a minefield of mistakes and misunderstandings.

Recently, many people have been discussing the possibility of the "beginning of the end of racism." Often this conversation is lumped with a discussion about the origins of racism. The most common explanation I hear is of innocent children being indoctrinated by closed-minded adults to think certain minorities are inferior for one reason or another.

The day after Thanksgiving usually brings fine thoughts of chaos, as ravenous shoppers wait outside in the cold until their store of choice opens, which usually leads to a rampage of people storming in looking for deals like lions looking for a meal. This week marked my second Black Friday where I went out hunting for deals.

In November's election, Michigan became the thirteenth state of the United States to legalize medical marijuana, defying federal law in the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, which classifies "marihuana" as a Class I drug. When Congress passed this act, it audaciously declared cannabis to have a high potential for abuse, a lack of acceptable safety in use, and no medical value.
