Our Perspective... Bright future for registration of classes
      Photos from the past depict long lines of Appalachian State University students flowing out Varsity Gym after waiting for hours on end, beating the masses to register for college classes.
   With the creation of a new and improved AppalNET, registration is now paperless, and student services are more easily accessible.
   Welcome to the 21st century, students of Appalachian State University.
   It seems like only yesterday the university began using one computer to reduce time and energy spent in the hassle of class registration.
Both sides of current war debate are at fault

    This is not another column on the rights or wrongs of the war in Iraq. I have addressed my beliefs about the war on Iraq in this space before. What concerns me today is how both sides of the political spectrum have been behaving throughout this controversy.
   The “war” at home is getting increasingly vicious, and this may be more harmful than we can imagine. Both sides of the debate are at fault, and what should be an honest, up-front discussion about a crisis has turned into mindless slogan shouting.
There is a right time, place to speak your mind

    As I sat on the couch Sunday watching basketball, the games inevitably came to an end. As I talked to the other people in the room with war updates on the television, it dawned on us that the Academy Awards were on.
   I haven’t paid much attention to what the “good movies” were this year, but it’s always interesting to see what the so-called experts say.
