Students responsible for actions off campus
Already this semester, the university has received numerous complaints and police reports about student house parties in University Heights involving underage drinking, excessive noise and other disruptive behaviors. This past weekend, at least ten different parties were visited by Buffalo police and UB students were issued verbal warnings on policies regarding underage drinking, sale of alcoholic beverages, noise ordinances, public urination, criminal mischief, property damage, DWI, littering and third-floor occupancies. These students were advised that future complaints/violations would result in citations and criminal charges. Additionally, addresses of offending houses were identified and will to be monitored by the Buffalo PD, the Buffalo Housing Authority and the State Liquor Authority.

Buffalo roams again
There is a saying that once you hit rock bottom, the only place left to go is up. And that is why Buffalo's future looks promising in comparison to its recent past. Better days lie ahead for a city that has taken body blows for decades, yet refused to fall. A city that has been a whipping boy for comedians, broadcasters and the national press over the years just might find itself having the last laugh in the end.

9/11/05: business as usual
The flags were flying at half-mast throughout campus yesterday in remembrance of those who perished in the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. If one missed seeing them, they would be hard-pressed to find any indication of what happened that fateful day being observed on UB's campuses. UB, like the rest of the nation, is moving on from the pain of 9/11 but its overarching effects on our daily lives should never be overlooked.

In the Sept. 7 column "No sympathy for stupidity," Sports Editor Jennifer Gillan wrote that former UB football player Mike Radon "ignored" his need to drop classes, and his family "showed no initiative" in taking care of his bills. The Spectrum cannot support either of those statements as facts and retracts them from the column.

Reactionary revolution stunts progress
The latest casualty of the Bush Administrations war on science was Dr. Susan Wood, the Food and Drug Administration's ranking women's health expert. Her departure occurred due to the hyper-partisan politics the administration regularly engages in at the expense of the scientific community. In this case, the refusal to approve Plan B provides another example of science taking a backseat to the conservative reactionary mindset of an administration that suppresses what doesn't fit its political agenda, a closed-minded train of thought that is permeating across many parts of the country.
