Stories from the February 10, 2000 issue of the GW Hatchet.
My husband and I would like to compliment David Holt on his article on the Xavier game Saturday. We live near Harrisburg, Pa., and have followed the team since our son was a freshman seven years ago. We had season tickets until this year and decided that the traveling was getting a bit much, especially […]
Student Judicial Services investigated and charged the Pakistani Students Association Monday, two weeks after an unregistered off-campus party was held following Pakfest Millennium. Martin Hicks, coordinator of SJS, said the organization was sent written notice Feb. 7 that it had been charged with failing to register and seek approval for an alcohol-related function, as well […]
Illinois Gov. George Ryan showed uncommon political courage when he issued a moratorium on the death penalty in his state because of its horrendous record of wrongfully imposing capital punishment. Since 1977, when the death penalty was reinstated in Illinois, 12 people have been executed, while 13 others have been exonerated. The faults lie among […]
