why did i spend my time reading this crappy article? Humphrey is obviously a total d0ucher... Glenn Beck propaganda belongs on FoxNews, not the Gonzaga Bulletin.

Like Martin Luther King Jr said, "The arc of history is long, but it always bends for social justice."

Well, you are entitled to your opinion ofcourse, but fans are fans. I'm sorry to say that not everyone is as passionate about the team as you are, but the Bulldogs need every single one of us, despite our varying levels of intensity.

Just because you pick Gonzaga to lose in your bracket, does not mean you are picking Gonzaga to lose in your heart! I know Gonzaga isn't as good as say, Kansas, but that does NOT mean I will be rooting for them to lose given the chance they get to play them in a tournament. If you believe that mere common sense is cowardice, then you have that right, but that simply is not so.

I do agree with you that bandwagon fans should rethink their commitment to the team, but until Gonzaga starts losing consistently during the season, we won't know for sure who those fans are, and I don't think you should be making assumptions as readily has you have.

Maybe I am just an ignorant sophomore at Gonzaga University, but that is just what I think.

Dear Drew,

Although I respect your insight I do disagree in a small way. Yes, it is true that Christians are called to love. We are all sinners called to love other sinners, and not to judge. It is just sad the way that some "Christians" treat homosexuals. However, to love someone does not mean that we must approve of their actions. The Bible clearly says that homosexuality is a sin, the same way telling a lie is a sin. They are no different in God's eyes. My friend loves his alcoholic father, but it is his love for his father that hopes his father can change. No, I'm not equating homosexuality to alcoholism. I think that a lot of people do treat homosexuals unfairly. We need to love them the same as we need to love everyone else. It's just that to love someone doesn't mean that we disregard the rest of God's commands. In love is the forgiveness, and forgiveness comes when we turn to God and open our hearts to everything He has to offer.

Gonzaga has lost my support as well as many others for life due to disastrous manner in how this was handled.

can somebody make a bio about this person.......

This is a well written article that clearly articulates the concerns of Gonzaga's culturally-diverse community. While the University has an expressed commitment to creating a student body from different backgrounds, it appears that the current model is a top-down strategy and does not address the ongoing and central issue of dispelling apathy among students. I agree with Ms. Cunanan's statement that the attendance of GSBA leadership at events demonstrates where their priorities stand. And while it is understandable that they have other commitments, as student leaders they have the responsibility of supporting all students, clubs, and events. Surely this service to others and giving of oneself was to be expected when running for elected office. Therefore, I implore both student and University leadership to find ways to make diversity a central tenet of the mind, body, spirit education Gonzaga offers and not rhetoric.

I just like the idea of Gonzaga incorporating the Broadcasting department more. Many times the University treats GUTV as if it doesn't exist. Look on the school's Web site and materials, they gloss over GUTV and make no mention of the student-run TV network, or of the documentaries and productions being made.
When it comes to official commercials, the Broadcasting students are still learning the skills, so an outside company would make a more polished commercial. But Gonzaga could use GUTV more when making promo videos, online video tours, and using the GUTV news stories. Stop ignoring GUTV just because it's tucked away on the West side of campus.

this article speaks both to my experiences as a person of an ethically diverse background as well as someone a part of the LBGT community. Thank you for pointing out some of the things that are not only wrong here but need to be changed. I feel that Gonzaga is an amazing place where the chance to flourish is not only encourage, it is required of its students, but as far as the diversity on the campus is concerned, we still have a long ways to go before minorities (ethnic, sexual orientations, gender-identifying, etc.) feel 100% comfortable being here.
So once again, thank you for bringing to light something that not everyone, whether they are a minority or not, is comfortable voicing about Gonzaga.

I find it concerning how many people evaluate the God of the Bible and conclude, "My God doesn't..." or "...my God is..." as if God somehow needs to conform to your limited wisdom. You literally are creating a God that suits your discernment. Imagine for a moment an existence where the heavens and earth may not conform to what you want to believe, what four philosophy classes has taught you, and what a sinful nature dictates. Imagine a continuing search for truth, where the conclusions your draw may not seem warm and easy. Over and over again, following God does not produce an easy self rewarding life. God allowed everything to be taken away from Job. Paul lived with a "thorn" in his side. Christ was crucified.

Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind?

I am a creation of God, and I am at the mercy of his will, not my own. Regardless of whether or not he is MY God, God IS. It is a dangerous place when we start defining God by our own standards instead of the character of God revealed to us through Christ and the Bible.

Raising awareness, raising money, donating time...all have their place. But, shouldn't Gonzaga be much more cutting edge? Training students to unleash the powers of the free market and capitalism and liberty that have made life so good here in the USA...unleashing those powers in other countries that need them?
