Letters to the Editor

Arlen Specter To the Editor: Albert Sun's article on Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.)'s address at College Hall ("Pa. senator slams detainee bill," DP, 10/13/06) conspicuously omitted a key point: Sen. Specter ultimately voted for the bill he so harshly criticized.

Editorial | Get ready for elections

With less than three weeks to go, Election Day is fast approaching, and it's not too early to get prepared. Between selecting a governor, a senator, a congressman and a state representative, there are a lot of choices to make, all of which should merit careful thought and decision.

Guest Opinion: Carol Spigner and Damon Freeman | Opinion cartoon ignores context of W. Phila.

Some students at Penn seem to be of one school of thought when it comes to West Philadelphia. An extremely negative view was expressed most recently by a cartoon published on this editorial page. Displaying prominently at the top the caption "Shopping in West Philly," it showed a Chinese food truck with what looks like three white students waiting to pay for their food.

Agustin Torres | Economists lack logic? Blame the Math dept.

Not too long ago, I thought economics was about making money and getting rich. Now I know it's about using weird mathematical models to understand human behavior and perhaps try and predict what will happen, and then - says the joke- use some more of that math to explain why those predictions were wrong.
