In 13 hours across the span of two days, Associated Students of Madison gave students the opportunity to decide the fate of the Student Union Initiative and Living Wage referendums.
After months of printing green t-shirts, pinning campaign buttons, publishing ads in newspapers and pressing students for their support, advocates of the Student Union Initiative have only one thing left to do: Hold their breath and hope that students will cast a vote in favor of the plan.
After the release of last week's allegations against the marching band, one thing is obvious: The University of Wisconsin Marching Band Director Michael Leckrone should not be blamed for the hazing actions of band members.
Bob La Follette would be proud. In the spirit of the Wisconsin idea, UW-Madison has forged a partnership with Google that will vastly expand the capacity to sift and winnow beyond university confines.
On Oct. 6, the UW Board of Regents publicly announced opposition to the proposed state constitutional amendment banning same sex marriages, civil unions and domestic partnership. Bravo, regents.
Bicyclists are a common sight on Madison's isthmus. In our city, people bike for a variety of reasons from getting exercise, to traveling to and from class. People bike on the Lakeshore Path to Picnic Point or near the Capitol and Lake Monona.
Mayor Dave Cieslewicz's recently unveiled executive budget for 2007 proves he is committed to protecting the city of Madison and the students on this campus.
Between panhandlers, evangelists and WisPIRG, the average UW-Madison student quickly learns to brush off street solicitors without a second thought.
The prevalence of alcohol-related problems on campus necessitates a solution that addresses all causes. The Alcohol License Review Committee's proposed plan to control the density of bars between Blair and Lake Streets is good in theory but fails to focus on improving Madison city life.
As we continue our preparation for our first Big Ten Conference home football game on Oct. 7, we would like to respond to your recent editorial urging the UW Athletic Department to ""revisit and revise"" the new Ticket Revocation Policy.
Memorial Union desperately requires renovation. Union South is due for complete reconstruction. But when students voted down the referendum last spring that aimed at meeting these needs, the union improvement process stagnated.
The fact that the UW-Madison Roman Catholic Foundation was denied university funding and recognition Friday is disappointing. However, even more upsetting was the journey to the decision, which now puts the nation's largest religious student group without funding.
Two UW-Madison students had their football season tickets revoked at the season-opener Sept. 2 game. Thirty-seven additional students received letters of warning signed by Athletic Director Barry Alvarez regarding inappropriate behavior during the game.
Madison's recent crackdown on Club Majestic is necessary and reasonable in response to continued violence at 115 King St. Reducing the club's capacity, banning glass bottles, requiring more security officers and ending live shows earlier are all legitimate attempts to reduce out-of-control situations at Majestic while maintaining the club's viability as a business.
The Halloween Action Committee's efforts to turn Halloween into an open-air music fest is certainly commendable. However, with a misguided title like ""Freakfest"" the efforts are de-legitimized—and even comical—how many students will actually take it seriously?
Interim Dean of Students and former Associate Dean of Students Lori Berquam confirmed to The Daily Cardinal her intentions to pursue the open seat for dean of students. We could not be more pleased.
In the minds of most beer-drinking, Terrace-going, Midwestern-bred Badgers running around campus, the vast majority of the world's conflict and change is witnessed through sporadic run-ins with a news anchor or camera lens.
The neo-Nazi rally at the Capitol Aug. 26 displayed an extreme example of the group's First Amendment rights. Events like this remind us of the importance to maintain the right to freedom of speech even when we decry the message. All opinions deserve to be heard no matter how unpopular they may be. The Daily Cardinal Editorial Board, comprised of staff members with ranging political persuasions, will present stances on salient issues every day on the opinion page. The board will strive to present opinions to its readership without fear or favor. Since political debate is a fixture on campus it may just be the case that one day you find yourself on the unpopular side of an issue. In accordance with the UW Regents, this board will boldly engage in the ""sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found.""
On Monday, Feb. 21, 2005, The Daily Cardinal editorial board issued a call to action. Because the scheduled date for the Mifflin Street Block Party fell on the eve of finals, the board advised, It is now up to the students who are most affected, those who live on Mifflin Street, to take responsibility and get the city in line with moving the party up a week to April 30.\ And so, the students mobilized.
Yesterday's Daily Cardinal editorial, Wording Detracts from Referendum,\ falls short of solid analysis on numerous counts. The referendum on our April 4th ballot calling for immediate withdrawal is not representative of an ""ultra-left"" political agenda, nor do the organizers behind this initiative hold any delusions about its influence on foreign policy.
