GW Student Judicial Services oversees non-academic student discipline with jurisdiction covering everything from alcohol violations to sexual assaults and countless more infractions. But students dislike the secrecy of GW’s judicial proceedings. Students often perceive the policies surrounding SJS activities as constructed to allow administrators to impose their will on students without accountability because no one […]

On The Line’s feeble attempt at feel-good romance is enough to leave audiences longing for a refund of their time and money. Ten-year-old girls holding free movie tickets might be into the film, but everyone else should steer clear of this unabashed vehicle to promote ‘NSync’s Lance Bass and Joey Fatone. On The Line (Miramax) […]

For three years, GW’s Faculty Senate and the University administration have argued about a sexual harassment policy governing employee conduct – including the way faculty members behave toward students. Now, GW President Stephen Joel Trachtenberg has announced he will make the interim policy now in effect the permanent rule governing sexual harassment. Faculty members complain […]

Director Richard Linklater has tilled the mental plane in films such as Before Sunrise, Slacker and Dazed and Confused. But in his new, computer-illustrated feature, Waking Life, Linklater delves deeper into the subconscious than ever before, exploring dreams, reality and the blurred line between the two. “It’s a pretty fundamental idea” Linklater said in a […]

The attacks of Sept. 11 taught us that those who hate the United States will stop at nothing to destroy our nation and take the lives of our citizens.

In the wake of the recent controversy over the new mandatory Student Health Services visitation fee, students should be more attuned to their University health coverage. After a close analysis of the brochure for GW’s health insurance company, a GW law student discovered that oral contraceptives are not included under our health coverage, even with […]

I am the faculty adviser to GW women’s rugby. Technically, they are a “club” team. This lowly status did not keep my players from a major victory against Washington College during Parents’ Weekend. We won by a boastfully comfortable margin, and certain goals were scored by athletes whose papers I have graded in the recent […]

Monday’s story by Trevor Martin (“University probes mail system,” Oct. 22, p. 1) advocated placing suspicious packages in water or a confined space. In actuality, one should not do this, as the mass e-mail from University administrators clearly states. If a bomb were placed in water, it may detonate on contact. An explosive device placed […]
