Dean Quinley Is Like a
Nuclear Bomb
By David Lydon
Opinions Staff Writer
For this week’s TSL, I wrote a wonderful article about
Pomona’s snack policy. This article was articulate,
and humorous, and relevant. It was also completely neutered
by the e-mail that Dean Quinley sent out Monday, announcing
that snack will move to North Campus every Thursday.
Bush's Superfund Policy
Bows to Monied Corporate Interests
By Peter Douglas
Staff Staff Writer
Unfortunately, the idea that pollution is a crime worthy of
punishment is one to which our current government does not
subscribe, and as the Superfund rapidly dries up, the Bush
administration has refused to refill it.
Eat Food You Want, But
Don't Waste It
By Marcie Holmes
Contributing Writer
Before, we may have kidded ourselves that the dining hall
staff painstakingly extracted “salvageable” food
from our trays and used it in the next day’s soup. It
is now clear to everyone who regularly eats in the Greenhouse
that the dining hall staff makes no such economies. It is
also clear that the amount of uneaten food that is thrown
away at any given meal reaches impressive levels.
Huntley Lacks Flexibility,
Ends Returns Too Early
By Aaron Gilbert
Opinions Staff Writer
As with every great thing, the Claremont Colleges—otherwise
one of the best places in the country—have a catch:
Huntley Bookstore. As the only bookstore on campus—in
a region where it’s impossible for students without
cars to seek alternatives—Huntley offers too few used
copies of books and prices its stock exorbitantly.
Fighting the President's
War Will End Only in Further Tragedy, Increased Hatred
By Michael Owen
Opinions Editor
The present controversy over the Bush Administration’s
emerging interest in preemptive war—an interest elevated,
from its dubious beginnings as “retaliation” against
Afghanistan, to the shrine of foreign policy—deserves
some mention in its own right. But perhaps more disturbing
than the move toward American-initiated warfare is the progressive
spread of silence among the American public.
Liberal Faculty Can Teach
with Integrity
By Tony Barboza
Opinions Staff Writer
If you’re in college, you’re most likely being
indoctrinated by a force of closed-minded liberals, according
to some commentators on a recent study at Cornell University.
The study looked at professors at twenty universities nationwide
and found a largely prevalent political allegiance to the
left.
Time Flies at Pomona,
Pay Attention
By Cory Forsyth
Opinions Staff Writer
Einstein had it right when he said, “When a man sits
with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But
let him sit on a hot stove for a minute—and it’s
longer than any hour. That’s relativity.” Pomona,
then, is my pretty girl, and there’s something ironic
and slightly perverse about the fact that when I come here
and my days are packed with activities, they seem to flow
by like water.
