Stories from the February 7, 2000 issue of the GW Hatchet.
How will history treat Ronald Reagan? When asked about his legacy, will one quip Alzheimer’s and Iran Contra or Ending the Cold War and Resurrecting the Economy? We at the GW College Republicans, quite frankly, worship the man. It’s as if he were a god brought to Earth to end the viscous tyranny of communist […]
Just when fraternity members said they were cleaning up their act, another chapter gets removed for violating the rules. Sigma Chi lost its charter this week from its national office, in the latest of a series of violations against fraternities on GW’s campus. As The Hatchet reported two weeks ago, fraternities are taking a larger […]
Last week The Hatchet reported that the Community Living and Learning Center, or CLLC, plans to remove housekeeping from upperclassman residence halls next year.

After the 40-minute battle ended between these two A-10 division leading teams, something would have to give way.
