There seems to be a lot of people butt-hurt about my previous column.

It's time to make this campus healthy for everyone

Pope? Fine by me.
I am a firm believer in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that creates a wall of separation between church and state. I do not believe that the government should endorse any particular religion, but we all know that this is not the case.

So it goes: another year of Minnesota State University history made, the institution's 149th academic year coming to a close.
It's been a pleasure covering the 2007-08 school year. We've tried to report campus life with integrity, responsibility and accuracy.
