Cher has been arrested and deported by U.S. Officials because of her offensive statements. The former singer now gay icon was handcuffed as soon as she stepped off the plane in L.A. following her third post-retirement world tour. She was read her rights, handcuffed and sent on a plane for these remarks:

Have you ever had an ugly day? A day where mirrors taunt you with reflections of someone you’d rather not be?

I want to live in a world where ugly days are great ones. I’m not talking about building self-esteem, changing the face of beauty or judging people based on their character.

Young love is natural. So if you are a young lover what’s better than to get out into the big, wide natural world? In other words, if you are in love, take a hike! After all, you could not have attended a college more accommodating to romantic strolls.

A young woman down the block from me convinced her parents several years ago not to buy and cut a Christmas tree. Her argument was pretty simple and straightforward. She wanted to save a tree.

The pages of CHIPS are created by the team of faces pictured below. Each issue takes an average 20 hours to create and involves over 30 staff members whose efforts culminate in weekly production. Section editors arrange the content of their sections, which are then reviewed by the copy editors and enhanced by the layout crew.

On August 15, 1997, I got on a plane to come to America. My heart was beating so fast, and I was hardly thinking straight. Later my mom told me how I hurt her feelings when I forgot to wave at her before I disappeared into a “Departure” door.

I recently read a blog in the New York Times that said essentially something like ‘We need to stop thinking of the government as the enemy and business as the good guy if we want to make progress.’ I then had a libertarian aneurysm.

A woman in a tattered gown, bruised and broken, a puddle of blood haloing her head, lying at the foot of a domineering man. A below-the waist shot of a man, pants unzipped; and a woman on her knees in front of him—her leg splattered with the unmentionable. The flawless, glistening, nude body of a faceless model, displaying strategically placed bottles of some kind of alcohol. (Seriously, who’s looking at the booze here?)

Dear Luther College,

We’d like to make the Luther community aware of two different campus issues that seem different on the surface but have the same root cause.
