Months after closing its doors, the new owners of Club Majestic—Matt Gerding, Scott Leslie and Bryan Ellefson—announced a new title and outlook for the music venue. The rechristened ""Majestic Theater,"" aims to provide community events and avoid the violence and bar fights that precipitated the venue's closing last fall.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court agreed to hear a price-fixing lawsuit that has been brewing in lower courts since March 2004. Filed by two former UW-Madison students, the lawsuit asks the court to eliminate the ban on drink specials and create a class of persons eligible for damages.
Should College of Engineering students pay higher tuition than other undergraduates? If Engineering Dean Paul Peercy has his way, that would be the case.
Once again the Madison City Council has decided to look for a solution to a problem that does not exist.
In early March, the Recording Industry Association of America launched a new ""deterrence program"" to discourage illegal file sharing on college campuses. In response, UW-Madison officials deterred the program itself, refusing to hunt down and turn in the offending IP address users in campus networks. We support the university's decision, and hope the RIAA recognizes its folly in pressuring UW-Madison officials to infringe on students' privacy with pre-litigation letters.
Green is the color of Ireland, environmentalism and Islam. If new legislation passes, it will also be the color of certain sex criminals in Wisconsin—or at least their license plates.
Eli Judge deserves to be the next alder from District 8. Judge will bring a rational voice to the Madison City Council and will be responsive to needs of UW-Madison students who make up the majority of the district.
Madison residents will have the opportunity to elect a mayor on April 3, 2007. While incumbent Mayor Dave Cieslewicz and Ray Allen are both admirable candidates, we feel the city and UW-Madison's votes should go to Cieslewicz.
One of the greatest and most irritating ironies of collegiate life is that students are simultaneously lauded as the bright hope for the future by teachers, politicians and relatives while being treated as the lowest common denominator by a majority of the world's marketers and sloganeers.
Merriam-Webster's dictionary defines a judge as ""a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court."" Judges do this by exercising their judgment. How do we determine their judgment? Their record.
After the recent disclosure of potential worker exploitation in El Salvador regarding UW contracted sports giant Adidas, university officials must place worker's rights high on their list of priorities. However, by harassing Chancellor John Wiley an hour after he announced the initiation of his own investigation, the Student Labor Action Coalition only demonstrated that protest is not always warranted.
For most Badger basketball fans, Sunday's loss meant trouble for their office pool brackets. But losing a few dollars in an office pool might be the least of sports fanatics' worries, since any form of unlicensed gambling is technically illegal.
The Democrat-controlled state Senate will soon consider a bill to increase Wisconsin's minimum wage in September from $6.50 to $7.25 per hour, as well as index the minimum wage to inflation. Supporters claim the bill would directly benefit about 100,000 workers—mostly adult women.
The Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, the body that controls UW-Madison's lucrative stem cell technology patents, has decided to play nice. Criticized for its high licensing fees even to other universities, the nation's leading stem cell technology producer will now offer lower fees for universities and other non-profit research organizations.
When thousands of people from all walks of life—students, parents, teachers and even soldiers—gather at the Pentagon this weekend to demand change, the Iraq War will continue.
Thanks to legislation fronted by state Senate Majority Leader Judy Robson, D-Beloit, state hospitals may be one step closer to providing an important service—the morning-after pill.
The UW Roman Catholic Foundation exhaled a long sigh of relief last Thursday when U.S. District Judge John Shabaz ruled that UWRCF's funding woes could end with a simple change in board membership.
Last fall an audit found employers in the Madison area involved with UW-Madison's work-study program owed the school a combined total of $150,000 in unpaid debts due to an accounting glitch that underbilled many of the participating organizations.
The large endeavor taken on by The Daily Cardinal to explore campus crime and safety had many goals in mind. We wanted to acknowledge the crime problem on campus, highlight current efforts to keep students safe and, perhaps most importantly, suggest what students and campus officials can do in the future to ensure students' safety.
If Gov. Jim Doyle is touting clean government for Wisconsin, he should be the first to set a good example.
