No Easy Answers, Liz Cash

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Searching for a method to effectively punish sex crime offenders, at least three judges have recently ordered convicted rapists and child molesters to take a drug that causes chemical castration in lieu of regular prison sentences.

The Cycle Must Stop, Julie Grab, Robert Mendoza, Steve Gray

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Reports in recent years of thousands of Indians and Ladinos slaughtered in Guatemala and tens of thousands more fleeing their homes to refugee camps have provoked no outcry in the U.S. Popular resistance to the oppressive military regime is growing, yet President Reagan will ask to renew aid for the nation most notorious for human rights violations. This request should be denied and all support for this regime ended. The reasons should be clear when the Guatemala story is understood.

Rapes Seldom Reported, Suzanna Mitchell, Ron Gabriel

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Statistics from the Rape Crisis Center in Bangor suggest that for every rape reported at UMO each year, 10 others have probably occurred, said UMO's assistant director of police services William Prosser. The Rape Crisis Center bases unreported rape figures "on calls [it] gets for assistance compared to the number of police reports generated due to rape," Prosser said.

Name Disclosure Destroys Reputation, Lindsey Durnbaugh

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Last year we voted to pay a communications fee to support WMEB and the Maine Campus. I assume, perhaps mistakenly, that this is part of the reason there are more articles, more comics, and more national news items in the Maine Campus than there were last year. There is one thing, however, which far outweighs any of the services the Maine Campus may provide. This is the fact that the Campus effectively destroyed the reputation of one of the students here, a friend of everyone who knows him.

Names Aren't Real News, Virginia Wallace-Whitaker

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

I would like to comment on the recent coverage of reported rape at UMO…"Names make the news" is an old, old concept—almost as old as "she must have been asking for it."

Enhancing The Dream, Lisa Reece

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

His name was Martin Luther King, Jr., a 1964 Nobel Peace Prize winner, a non-Montgomery, Alabama, public transportation boycott, causing the Supreme Court decision outlawing segregation of public transportation. His march on Washington created the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and in 1965 the federal government passed the Voting Rights Act as a result of King's efforts. He was the hope for many blacks who deserved a better standard of living at the time.

Protect From 'Guilt By Accusation', Don Taylor

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

In regard to your article pertaining to the Penobscot Superior Court dropping charges against [a University of Maine student]. I feel your paper has done a grave injustice…by printing the comments of Assistant Director of the Department of Police and Safety William Prosser.

Bot Expands Umaine Anti-Hazing Rules, Rich Garven

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

One black female student sits among 200 white students in an Introduction to Anthropology class and the professor is speaking on physical characteristics of races. He singles her out of the class and asks if she has trouble sleeping because of her braided, Bo Derek-style hairdo. She says no, and he replies, "You must have a really soft pillow, but then, they don't have pillows in Africa."

Love Hurts, Dan O'Brien

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Commentary piece anthropomorphizing video arcade games using sexist tropes and sexualized, female gender stereotypes.

Superior Court Dismisses Rape Case, Nancy Kaplan

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

The Penobscot County Superior Court Monday dismissed a charge of rape against a UMO student when a grand jury established there is insufficient cause to prosecute the case.

Sympathize For Both, Paul Pickering

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Rape is an ugly concept. Yet day after day I see articles in the Maine Campus of which the topic is none other than rape. I don't mean to discount the importance of addressing such an issue, but why can't we let the two involved in that unfortunate episode deal with the consequences by themselves?

"There She Is:" A Change For The Worse, Tom St. Amand

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

I suppose change in our culture is a must, else social critics soon would label ours a stagnant society. Ideals will change, attitudes should change and people change to adequately approach the problems and events of the future. Until Saturday the argument for change had my full support. My advocacy ebbed that weekend evening when I watched 45 minutes of the 57th Miss America Pageant and witnessed unimagined change.

Accused By Origin, Barney Berube

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

The subject of rape for the lead story in the Maine Campus makes for titillating talk and gossip. That seems universal. Why shouldn't the Maine Campus cash in on this human frailty? Other papers indulge in this kind of reportage gratuitously. That's only one of the curiously sad aspects of the Maine Campus indulgences.

Feminist Poet Kicks Off Lecture Series, Chris Bradley

Gannett Hall Resident Charged With Rape, Mike Harman

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

A 20-year-old Gannett Hall resident was arrested in his room Tuesday on a charge of Class A rape by UMO police.

Handicapped Students Deserve Equal Access, Bob Neal

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

What is a student to do when she or he cannot get access to equipment that must be used to obtain a degree? This problem may face quite a few handicapped students. It certainly faces Bob McPhee, a senior journalism major.
