Last week, the Washington Post released new social media guidelines to its staff, which bans its reporters and editors from using certain functions of sites like Facebook and Twitter, and raises a whole slew of questions.

Bravo for a big weekend of football for the state of Arizona. We will finally get an inkling of just what this ASU football team is made of on Saturday when it clashes with No. 21 Georgia in Athens. Two wins against Idaho State and Lousiana-Monroe are nice, but it will be interesting to see how the Sun Devils handle a big-boy team from the SEC in one of the most hostile environments in the country. The next day, the nation will be watching in prime time when the Cardinals host Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football.

Which is better: signing up for a required class that meets at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, or taking the class online, conveniently located inside your computer?

Bravo to student journalism across the country. Many have hailed the Yale Daily News as having the best coverage among its competitors of a huge homicide story this week. The student journalists ranked right up there with national news outlets, solidifying the hope that journalistic integrity will not dissolve even though the industry is changing. On the other hand, The Harvard Crimson published a Holocaust-denying ad that Crimson President Maxwell L. Child said, “fell through the cracks.” But instead of avoiding the issue, the paper did handle the fallout appropriately. Here at The State Press, the thing that matters most to us is your feedback. This upcoming Tuesday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. there will be an “Ask the Editor” table by the Memorial Union on the Tempe campus. Stop by to give us story ideas, submit letters to the editor or just ask us some questions. See you there!

Small class sizes? Specialized teacher attention? Cheaper tuition?

Boo with a Vue. The party atmosphere of The Vue off-campus luxury apartments led to around 90 people getting arrested this weekend. The complex is not a dry facility, and of course, not all students living there are underage, but many students arrested were cited for inappropriate alcohol usage. The staff at The Vue sent out an e-mail to tenants outlining policies, but also asked to “please … not call the police” over noise complaints, saying that vue administration “will be able to respond more efficiently.” It seems as though the staff is helping to contribute to the no-authority mentality. How this is helpful in terms of University academics, we just can’t figure out. We realize that ASU was recently named as the top university for booty calls by OnlineBootyCall.com, but a Girls Gone Wild atmosphere isn’t what the University or university life should ultimately be about.

Parking at ASU is about as fun as nosebleed seats at a Celine Dion concert.

It is not a bizarre occurrence to see hordes of students whip out their cellular telephones the moment class gets out to send a message in textual form.

Picture this: Apocalypse. Where are you? Trapped in Hayden Library, the Memorial Union, Calculus and Analytical Geometry III or, worst-case scenario, the newsroom dungeon wrapped in a Snuggie.

Bravo to Edward Kennedy and his life accomplishments. The Massachusetts senator passed away Tuesday night after battling brain cancer for just more than a year. Whether or not you agreed with his politics, Kennedy dedicated much of his life to serving the American people. He was elected nine times to the Senate and was the third-longest serving senator in American history. He championed causes such as education, voting rights and health care, and Sen. Robert Byrd, D-WV, has encouraged Congress to name the debated health care reform bill in Kennedy’s honor. America has reached the end of a Kennedy era with this loss, but we continue to honor the family and the senator who contributed so much to this country.

Swine flu. Just when you thought you had made it past the danger and it had finally slipped your mind, the illness is back to hog our attention as cold and flu season nears.

Anonymity at ASU can be as easy as just showing up. When you go to a University of more than 65,000 students, getting lost in the crowd is often unavoidable.

As part of a daily publication, we at The State Press tend to understand the importance of deadlines. (Well, most of the time.)

For most students, summer means one thing: a time to relax. And while we here at The State Press are also free from lecture halls and homework for a few months, we’re by no means taking a break in the workplace.

This semester, The State Press has been a numbers graveyard.

Yes, there was a red carpet. Yes, there were stars. And yes, there were cameras.

Bravo to the continued dominance of ASU spring athletics. The track and field program remains an elite power in the spot. Women’s tennis is a top-30 program.The defending NCAA champion ASU softball team is in the hunt for a two-peat with a 36-9 record and sits eighth in the nation. Women’s water polo heads to this weekend’s MPSF Championships ranked No. 8 in the nation. The 29-8 baseball team is ranked second in the national polls as it continues conference play tonight. And finally, the women’s golf will play for a Pac-10 crown this weekend as the No. 1 team in the nation, according to both major polls.

Today is a very exciting day in our far-less-than-classy basement office, otherwise affectionately known as the Mosquito Palace, Asbestos Depot or the Dungeon.
