Illogical logic I am appalled by the take presented of people with special needs in the “No ticket to ride” letter to the editor in The GW Hatchet Jan. 20 (p.4). In his letter, the writer readily exposed his ignorance by stating, “If Casey Martin really has what it takes to play professional golf, he […]

(U-WIRE) CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – It is time to end bilingual education in America. This is a system that originally was intended to be temporary until students gained fluency in English, but it has evolved into a much larger and more dangerous program. Students are segregated and taught almost entirely in a language other than English, […]

Exhausted from a two-game road trip, the GW women’s basketball team made up for poor shooting with strong defensive play to escape with a 55-39 victory against George Mason University Monday. Continuing their unusual sub-par play at home, the Colonial women (12-6, 6-2 Atlantic 10) shot a dismal 33 percent for the game and hit […]

As a junior, I am in a position from which I have seen the mistakes of years past, yet I will be around long enough to care about the present state of GW and its outlook for the future. Talk about the upcoming Student Association elections is already in the air. These elections year after […]

Young but talented, the GW gymnastics team is setting its hopes on capturing the Atlantic 10 Championship that eluded it a year ago.

[…]

Hell must be freezing over. Not only did an AFC team win the Super Bowl Sunday, but it was the Denver Broncos. The Denver Broncos, the team that always chokes, finally won the big game. You had to smile, though, watching John Elway celebrate like a kid in a candy store when he finally was […]

GW and St. Joseph’s, two of the best teams in the Atlantic 10, play their only scheduled game of the season Sunday at the Smith Center. This will be the teams’ first meeting since the Lady Hawks upset the Colonial women in the final of last season’s A-10 Tournament 59-56 at the Smith Center. St. […]

GW returns to the Smith Center Saturday for the first of two meetings with Virginia Tech. The Colonials (17-3, 6-1 Atlantic 10) are in first place in the A-10 West Division. In addition, GW’s leading scorer, forward Yegor Mescheriakov, is expected to return to the lineup after missing three games with a sprained right ankle. […]
