THINK BACK to the days when your older sibling was left in charge for five minutes by your parents. Those times were typically plagued by claims like "I'm the boss of you. You'll do what I say or Mom and Dad will be real angry." It's unfortunate that such an abuse of power doesn't go away once we grow up.

ACTIVISM is usually good. Some activism, however, is really bad. Unfortunately, some of that bad activism is present at the University.

FOR OREGONIANS, much of what all of us cherish is at stake. Privacy. Fundamental rights. Sanctity of contracts. And for some, their pasts.

NOBODY LIKES to be talked about behind his back. So why does the faculty think they can do it to students without insulting us?

THERE'S A BIG hole in the ground, and the first to fill it wins. Now that Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) is out of the picture, there are a good 33 percent of self-proclaimed "McCain voters." This is according to a Newsweek poll to which the remaining contenders -- Vice President Al Gore and Texas Gov. George W. Bush (R) -- must appeal if they wish to secure the White House in November.

THEY CALL us Wahoos because, as this fish drinks water, we can drink our weight's worth of alcohol. They say the University is the biggest party school on the East Coast. We work hard and play hard. Or so the perception goes.

STUDENT COUNCIL has a reputation as a do-nothing body among students. Lately though, not only has Council been proactive, but for once it has gone too far.

Any number of impulses stimulate us every second. Some of our decisions are coldly calculated. Others are capricious. What we decide to do at one moment may be infinitely different from what we might decide to do, under the same conditions, in the very next moment.

THEY INSERTED a needle in Raymond Landry's arm. Lethal injection. Suddenly, the needle escaped Landry's arm, spewing toxic chemicals in the direction of the observers. Landry lived through the most unimaginable thing during the last 40 minutes of his life - a botched execution.

FREE SPEECH isn't without limit. Or so the Supreme Court has ruled. In a unanimous Supreme Court decision, Schenck v. U.S. (1919), Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote that if he were to shout "Fire!" in a crowded theater, he would create a harm far outweighing his right to free speech. Holmes created the clear and present danger test, which allows safety concerns to trump free speech rights.

POLITICAL pundits should have Texas Gov. George W. Bush's campaign committee trembling if they're right about their prognostications. They warn that the candidate's organizational, monetary and political lead may be waning in the face of overlooked or underestimated competitors. Bush's most prominent opponent is Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz).

IT'S HARD to believe that Bill Gates could have a bad day. If you're the richest guy in the world, a leading technological mogul who is sitting on a corporation with a nearly half-trillion-dollar market value, it's tough to fathom much of anything that could ruin your financial afternoon. Try having all of your life's hard work crumble before you. And not just fall apart because you are competitively inept - no, your empire will crumble because a third party sees your industrious pursuit of technological excellence as predatory.

IT WAS an uphill battle. It was also a losing battle. So it came as little surprise when the results were so prominently displayed across the large television screen in the Omni Hotel in Charlottesville - Ed Wayland couldn't unseat his challenger, incumbent Del. Paul Harris (R-58th).

WHILE everyone is harping on who does or doesn't deserve to be at the University, they're leaving something out. Students are purchasing SAT scores to get into top-flight universities.

SOMETHING very important is missing from the recent tumult over Board of Visitors member Terence P. Ross' comment that the University is "reaching a little bit down [its] academic standards" to recruit black students. There is a lack of civility on all sides of the issue. Rather than looking for long-term solutions, the NAACP has, in its request for Ross' removal from the Board of Visitors, exacerbated the situation.
