On Wednesday, the University announced that Paul Ominsky will serve as its next director of Public Safety. We hope that Ominksy’s appointment will make Public Safety more responsive to student concerns.
I was trekking across campus on a recent Sunday afternoon. It was a beautiful day, and the campus was dotted with tourists and students enjoying some sunlight and the last of the leaves still on the trees.
University should invite Nonie Darwish to speak after student group withdrew sponsorship; 'Prince' should have considered repercussions of publishing student's name; Misunderstanding in letter regarding University retirement contributions
