UA students travel to Alcatraz Island to honor protest
| |
|
In 1969, about 100 American Indians occupied the former prison on Alcatraz Island for 19 months, attempting to reclaim the land as their own.
Today and tomorrow, four UA students will return to the island to relive the spark of the American Indian Movement and the celebrate the 30th anniversary of the event.
"It's a chance for the young students to meet their history face-to-face," said Lorri Carrico, the director the University of Arizona's Native American Activities Board. "The whole Native American movement really took root after this."

Banned Books

It seems that the people in North Carolina have an endless list of things to be upset about. If not the torrents of rains, it is the thousands of dead live stock. If not the likely spread of pestilence, they are holding a meeting to ban the Harry Potter books from their public schools. Thankfully, the books were not banned. This still does not change the fact that some parents in North Carolina would rather turn out children without the ability to think for themselves, than offer their children the kind of skills needed to survive in the real world. |

Ask any on-the-go college student how much gold is worth, and the answer will probably be "25 cents."
This is not a reflection on our public school system or a sign of a plummeting world economy. Rather, it is testimony to the almighty quarter - the Washington-emblazoned token that allows students creature comforts such as clean socks, emergency phone calls, and of course, Big Grab bags of Cheetos.
