Crisis @ UTM?

Newspaper delivery halted after excessive budget woes

Students who became accustomed to getting The New York Times in classes last year are probably wondering where their copies are this year.

But the delivery of the newspaper has fallen victim to budget cuts, leaving students without the daily newspaper.

Last year, nearly 1,000 copies of the newspaper were delivered to UTM daily through a redership program sponsored by the American Democracy Project (ADP) and funded by the Division of Academic Affairs.

“It’s even more cloudy than it may seem. We’re still trying to pursue funding. It may even be here this fall,” said Mike McCullough, professor of management and UTM’s ADP chair.

At 35 cents a paper, plus $100 a week for delivery, Academic Affairs paid about $1,000 a semester for the NYT last year, McCullough said.

This year there is a greater demand for the NYT to be used in classes ranging from history, English, sociology to political science and even chemistry.


This is absolutely terrible!!! But somehow, I believe the University of Tennesse at Martin students (Go Skyhawks!) will be able to get their daily dose of liberal claptrap without the NY Times...

So Brangelina won't get married until everyone else can...

Brangelina to Marry When Everybody Can

Brad Pitt, ever the social activist, says he won't be marrying Angelina Jolie until the restrictions on who can marry whom are dropped.

"Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able," the 42-year-old actor reveals in Esquire magazine's October issue, on newsstands Sept. 19.


Brad? Gellina or whatever the fuck it is you call yourself? Does that mean you won't get married until a 30-year old guy can marry a 10 year old girl or are you taking about fags?
