Our weekly round-up of letters published in the Arizona Daily Star.

I am writing to thank the AZ Daily Star for its coverage of two existential issues: the war in Ukraine and the Colorado river basin crisis. We cannot let the tragedy and horror in the Ukraine fade. We must stop Putin. If we don't, history has shown that tyrants like him will continue their conquests and genocides. Second, everyone living in the seven Colorado basin states has an interest in preserving, protecting and wisely using our limited water supply.

Further, we need to provide HIMARS and other long range weapons that will allow Ukraine to strike back wherever Russian missiles may originate. Ukraine can't outlast a war of attrition. They must be given both sufficient air defense tools, as well as the ability to strike back,wherever it's needed. Both hires had their doubters, heck, I was skeptical myself, and I couldn’t be happier to have been proven wrong. As a long-time UA fan I am very happy with the direction both programs are headed in. I am also grateful that both men took steps to acknowledge the importance of Adia Barnes to the awesome women’s basketball program by boosting her contract. Now if we could just get some TV coverage for the hard-working women, I would be very happy, indeed.

As a parent of a U of A Musical Theatre senior, I am appalled at the unwillingness of the administration to fight for a classic art form with a thriving community. While film and television are, indeed, on the rise, they need not cast a withering shadow on something that brings so much joy to so many. Should every subject taught at the university be supported only by the “employment picture,” as Mr.

Listening to a survivor can change your life and views. I don’t know that we can stop rising antisemitism, racism, and hate speech, but we can try. One person at a time, one classroom at a time, one community at a time.Re: the Dec. 20 article “Ex-Cat Blair advocates for veganism.”
