A COMPLETE college education is an experience that should never be skipped over. The primary goal of any university or institution of higher learning is an education -- that's a given.
I RECENTLY wrote a column criticizing collegiate newspapers for refusing to print David Horowitz's ad condemning reparations on slavery.
GREEK life on college campuses has always been controversial. The misconception that the only purpose of these social clubs is to provide a forum for excessive drinking and sexual promiscuity has long cast question upon the idea of fraternities and sororities being supported by learning institutions such as the University.
SOMEHOW we knew it would come down to this. He played the moderate card for a while, so long as it was politically convenient.
MR. HOROWITZ appeared on this page two days ago with some filthy garbage he calls an opinion. The Managing Board correctly printed it on the Opinion page, but Horowitz's analysis, his research and his points are weak. It's not the larger argument - that reparations ought not be paid to black Americans - that is at issue, because reasonable people may disagree over that.
TUESDAY evening, Student Council passed a resolution urging divestiture - the termination of all investment in companies with ties to a particular nation - in Burma, a country ruled by a military regime with a record of human rights abuses.
VIRGINIA legislators have once again responded to a legitimate social problem with imprudence and ignorance.

LAST WEEK, U.S. Federal Judge Bernard Fried- man ruled against the University of Michigan Law School's affirmative action policy.
SOME African-American leaders are calling for reparations to be paid to American blacks by the U.S.
THREE weeks is not a lot of time. Ask any fourth year looking for a job - it can take longer than that just to get the interview.
LATELY it seems like the apocalypse is coming: Mad cow disease is killing cows in Europe. Hoof and mouth disease is killing off livestock everywhere else.
STUDENT self-governance. Its utterance causes some students to smirk, politicos to grin, the Office of Admissions to gleam and alumni to sigh in pleasant reflection.
AWEEK ago I received a forwarded e-mail from a friend of mine at James Madison University. The message was somewhat of a response to the second school shooting in San Diego in as many weeks.
IT'S THAT time of year again. Spring is here, the days are getting longer, tennis and other sports are starting their seasons, and shorts and sundresses are replacing pants and sweaters.
RECENTLY, I went to a training institute developed by the U.S. Department of Justice, where I attended a media training designed for people who have fairly controversial fields of work or, at the least, fields in which public and professional emotions run high.
FRUGALITY and economic discretion are commendable qualities, even more so when spending others' money.
