I appreciate what Sarah Carlson said in her column regarding Sing Song. The Sing Song culture has become too overbearing on students. I directed our club act (Pi Kappa) this year. Knowing that we would have approximately 20 participants, I told them we had two options: to have fun, grow stronger together, and put on a fun, entertaining show or ... [Read More…]
Your Voice: Letter to the Editor
I know that I may be a bit biased since I am his brother. However, I was wondering why there was no article done on the outcome of FilmFest and the winner, Brady Rector. I remember last year there was a front-page article on the winner and this year, just a mention of it in a story about what it takes to put on FilmFest. There was also an article ... [Read More…]
Student filmmakers express concern about future FilmFests
FilmFest is an event that, in its short two-year tenure, has already created quite a buzz. Many students get dressed nice and attend the now-annual event at the Paramount each year. FilmFest is a special event, but could also use some improvement. FilmFest brings back alumni, high profile judges and gets a wide variety of students and faculty ... [Read More…]
Student says Christ-centered social clubs do exist
I am not a fan of blanket statements, so I was very disappointed when a letter to the editor on Wednesday included a blanket statement. The letter assumes that every club falsely plays the "Jesus card" and has nothing to do with Christ. I admit that many clubs on campus do not project themselves in a good light, especially in light of recent ... [Read More…]
Your Voice: In response to the October 26 story entitled “Pledging season teaches new perspectives”
Any student on campus is familiar with social clubs and the image those clubs project. The connotation of social clubs doesn't extend far beyond the reaches of parties, T-shirts and friendships-none of which are bad things. But when clubs try and put up a front and say that they exist to glorify God, I say that is a lie. Believe me, the impression ... [Read More…]
Cancer survivor commends editorial
Your editorial on cigar smoking was exactly on target. I am a lung cancer survivor. I had smoked prior to the time I started to ACC in 1954, and I never smoked after that. I developed lung cancer in 1998. When I found out that it was so bad, I went to Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. When the doctors did exploratory surgery, I awoke to a great ... [Read More…]
Men’s club apologizes for Chapel behavior
As a pledge class, that which we have not sought to do, we have inadvertently accomplished through our actions. We do not deem ourselves higher than the spirit of Chapel, and by our actions we have spoken otherwise. We shamefully acknowledge our disrespect and rudeness when we decided to put ourselves above others. Please accept our sincere ... [Read More…]
Social club steals attention in Chapel
I am disappointed with some people's choices during Chapel this Monday. Randy Harris, instructor of Bible, Missions and Ministry, started a talk about troubles concerning faith. In case you weren't there, Harris stepped down off the Chapel stage, told all the believers to pray and proceeded to relate to the remaining crowd his own struggles with ... [Read More…]
Your Voice: Fifth year students say Bean Sprout is on the decline
After serving 4.5 years at ACU, we are simply appalled at the level which the Bean Sprout has dropped to. The menu only contains three options: beef, chicken, or salad. We recall a time when the Bean Sprout was the place to be; a great option to the monotony of the World Famous Bean. However, that was also probably a time when it took less than an ... [Read More…]
Your Voice: Letter to the Editor
Look, I'm not trying to advocate girls walking around in lingerie, but maybe it's time to relax a little bit. As an alumnus of a very conservative Christian college, it's a little frustrating sometimes to watch people over-react to little things. It isn't the job of an institution of higher learning to legislate the manner in which someone dresses. ... [Read More…]
