I would like to thank Mr. Eller for the wonderful history lesson from his Wednesday column (“Liberal Bias does exist at Cal Poly,” Feb. 7)…

Diversity of ideas only true diversity
The numbers that Brian Eller posted Wednesday were expected but still powerful. If Cal Poly is so committed to diversity on campus, why don’t they promote the true, and only proven, diversity which is the diversity of ideas? With a Sustainability week and Change the Status Quo, I would expect there will be views from the other side.
Separation of Christians, Catholics shows ignorance
My day was about to end happily, after eating a can of honey-roasted cashews, until I saw the cover of your Feb. 8 issue, for the fifth time. I typically ignore moments when ignorant Protestants, Catholics, Orthodox and non-denominational Christians individualize themselves from each other; however, the sight of your pie chart and its segregation of Christianity annoyed me one-too-many times.
The truth about the Under 4 campaign
My name is Chris Kirk and I am the president of Under 4 here at Cal Poly. Last week there was an article written about the…
Catholics are Christians too
I think the topic of student’s religious preferences was a good idea for an article. However, the front page article on Thursday, Feb. 8, was not a good example of precision journalism. First of all, the pie chart seperates Christians from Catholics. Catholics are Christians.
Democrats ignoring good candidates

Is it because he is a more liberal Republican and looked upon as the great New York mayor that was able to handle the mayhem of Sept.
Nonprofits should express freedom of religion too
On Tuesday afternoon I was approached by a man who was courting the signatures of students like me for “preventing nonprofits…
Law against feeding homeless outrageous, insensitive
I have been involved in politics since early in high school, and have spent many years engaged in debate with intelligent, well-informed people.
What if the United States was occupied by foreign forces?
Just about every day, I’ll read in the newspaper or watch on the news about how horrible the Iraqi war has gone…
Memorials should highlight the good and bad
Well, today I open my paper to find not one, not two, but three different articles bashing the Mustang Daily for implying that Spencer Wood was drunk at the time he died.
Staff editorial disrespectful to Wood's friends, family
On Monday, the Mustang Daily did a story on the memorial service in honor of Richard Spencer “Willow” Wood on the first page. On the opinions page, his life was turned into a public service announcement for the moderation of college drinking habits.
This was a completely ill-timed article written by the editorial staff.
