Stories from the February 26, 1998 issue of the GW Hatchet.
Candidates in this year’s campus elections have a new forum to pitch their platforms to student voters – the World Wide Web. Student Association presidential and executive vice presidential candidates are using cyberspace to provide information about their campaigns and information about who to contact to get involved in the race. The Web adds another […]
Director Alex Proyas’ latest film, Dark City (New Line Cinema), does not live up to his earlier movie, The Crow. Similar gothic images pervade, but only glimpses of The Crow’s original feeling remain. The Australian-born Proyas found fame by directing the 1994 hit in which the star, Brandon Lee, tragically died while working on the […]

ARIES (March 22-April 21)That girl/guy you met at LuLu’s last weekend is a waste of your time. Stop waiting by the phone. Then again, losers […]
I am appalled by the unsatisfactory nature of the Student Association, the Joint Elections Committee and the state of the student elections process. To limit the exposure and the interaction between candidates and students is an insult to all parties involved. Though the JEC may have been originally based on legitimate principles, I believe it […]
c Sex, literature and death are the three main themes of Tom Stoppard’s “Arcadia,” which is being performed in the Marvin Center Theater by the GW Department of Theater and Dance this weekend. Literally, arcadia means pastoral – simple and innocent – but Stoppard’s play is anything but. It is a comedy of innuendoes and […]
“There is a point at which it becomes foolish to deny the fact of black athletic prowess, and even more foolish to banish speculation on the topic.” I know what some of you are thinking, “Racist Rob the Grand Wizard finally has crossed the almighty line.” Well you can send your self-righteous letters to the […]
