Final Moscow, ID City Council results: Winners: Holmes 3511, McCetich 3498, Sumner 3392. Then Taruscio 2097. Then, the Doug Wilson (not Doug Jones) Christ Church candidates: Slagboom 1977, Schoolland 1919. Again: that's how these things tend to go around here

who are McCetich, Holmes, and Sumner. Top 3 win. If this holds, it's impt to know this is not atypical for ChrChr candidates in Moscow elections. Not a lot of winning for them. The result would be more status quo than part of some shifting tide tonight...(2x)

"A permanent state budget cut will force the University of Idaho to cut 28 'essential' positions. The reductions β in staff and faculty jobs β will lead to larger class sizes, less individualized learning time and fewer research opportunities for undergrads."

The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town. Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming. Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance. 75 12 comments
Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

They're trying to prevent the student newspaper from printing news, period. Not just a particular story.
"The Media School directed us to print no news in the paper... nothing but information about homecoming β no other news at all, and particularly no traditional front page news coverage."
