As a senior at GW, I am accustomed to a certain level of journalistic incompetence from The Hatchet, particularly in the area of arts reporting. But as a fine arts major nearing graduation, I was dismayed by the ignorance displayed in The Hatchet’s recent feature on First Friday, the monthly D.C. “gallery-hopping” ritual (Feb. 12, […]

The GW men’s baseball team lost to host James Madison University 4-2 Tuesday afternoon at Long/Mauck Stadium. The loss drops the Colonials to 1-3 record early in the 2001 season. The Colonials held a 2-1 lead entering the bottom of the seventh inning before James Madison (3-3) began its comeback. The Dukes scored two runs […]

I am replying to your editorial of Feb. 15 regarding the Board of Zoning Adjustment’s decision with regards to GW’s campus plan (“Rethink restrictions”). I was an Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner in Foggy Bottom when GW submitted its campus plan to our organization and ultimately to the BZA. Your editorial criticizes the BZA for ruling the […]

I am concerned about inaccuracies in your article with the headline “Program lacks applicants” (Feb. 15, p. 1). Specifically, the first paragraph is not an accurate representation of any statement I made in a conversation with The Hatchet. First, I never indicated that there was a lack of interest in the program. Quite the contrary, […]

Students living at the Mount Vernon Campus said they look forward to some big changes to their campus next year, but with coed housing, new athletic fields and ties to the Honors Program, they hope the campus can keep its intimate setting. “I think making the campus coed will help it,” freshman Kimberly Gray said. […]

Kevin Costner either hits big or misses big. Audiences endured a number of Costner flicks in recent years that fall into that latter category, featuring him as a love-obsessed Romeo, a crazed postmaster general and a post-apocalyptic hero with a propensity to drink urine. Costner returns to the big screen in 3000 Miles to Graceland […]

I read with great interest the article “Popular programs disappoint” that appeared in the features section of the Feb. 16 issue of The Hatchet (p. 6). Unfortunately, the article had numerous inaccuracies and a skewed perspective. I would like to correct some of the misstatements in the article. Approximately 600 first-year students are involved in […]

A female student reported a man in a car grabbed her and forced her to see him masturbate at the intersection of 22nd and L streets near Aston Hall. The simple assault marks the second crime a student reported this month. Three students have been assaulted at the intersection since November. A male in a […]

In its latest play GW student group Forbidden Planet Productions takes on an elaborate story that even professional production companies would have a hard time telling. The group manages to paint a clear picture of the British play “The Skriker” without confusing even the least-versed audience. While playgoers may want to brush up on the […]
