Many Penn State students are looking forward to tomorrow's game with archrival Pittsburgh, but some say the series has lost the magic that made it one of the most exciting rivalries of the 1970s and early 1980s.

Letters to the editor

ARTS

Although it has been some 27 years since his death, Malcolm X has inadvertently become 1992's pop icon.

Spike Lee is all over the place. He co-wrote, co-produced, acted in and directed Malcolm X. If that weren't enough, he co-produced the soundtrack and wrote the liner notes. Be very thankful.

Spike Lee and Malcolm X often are incorrectly labeled as merely bull-headed, rebellious and radical men.

It's not very often that you get to see a set of identical twins -- where one is a man and the other is a woman.

It would be fun to say the members of EMF are techno-punks. DIV>

Basic Instinct and Damage have something in common. Yes, they both have several sexually explicit scenes, but at one time they were also given NC-17 ratings.

Jason Ranck is definitely a man of many talents.

As a man who has been remembered largely for his words, "by any means necessary," Malcolm X may soon be understood for the rest of his words. Spike Lee's movie bio-pic, Malcolm X, will make sure of that.
