Before rumors start to fly too much, I wanted to comment on my resignation as chair of the Joint Elections Committee. It is my hope that this letter will serve as an explanation and apology to the campus in general, the candidates, and most importantly, my friends on the JEC. My decision to leave the […]

The GW baseball team took both games of a doubleheader against Fairfield University Sunday afternoon at a cold and windy Barcroft Park. Colonial pitching dominated the twinbill. Starters Ari Zagaris and Adam Belicic combined to give up just four hits and one run. The three-game series with Fairfield (0-2) was moved back a day after […]

PHILADELPHIA – The GW men’s basketball team ended its pre-NCAA Tournament season the way most teams did – with a loss in a postseason conference tournament. But the Colonials (20-8) took it to the extreme, as eventual champion Rhode Island embarrassed them in the Atlantic 10 Tournament semifinals Friday. The Rams snared the A-10’s automatic […]

Students elected two write-in candidates to the five-member Marvin Center Governing Board during last week’s elections. Peter Frost, Andy Malowitz, Mark Richman and Tony Sayegh were elected to the MCGB, but only Malowitz and Richman appeared on the ballot. Sayegh, who will fill the graduate student position, and Frost were elected as write-in candidates. Mike […]
