Q: I am a heterosexual male, but I find myself oddly attracted to celebrities like George Clooney. What does finding another man attractive mean? Does this mean that I am gay? –Confused Chick: It’s perfectly OK to find someone of the same sex attractive. Actually, women have a bisexual arousal pattern, which means we get […]
On Sept. 13, a number of GW students and workers joined the thousands of students, workers and their allies converging upon Yale University in a massive demonstration of solidarity with the nearly 4,000 Yale workers who have been on strike since the end of last month. More than 100 demonstrators were arrested for blocking traffic […]
When GW students swipe their GWorld cards at on-campus food venues such as J Street, the transaction occurs instantly. But at off-campus restaurants such as TGI Friday’s and Au Bon Pain, transactions are far from immediate, and in many cases it takes minutes for a sale to be completed. The advent of Colonial Cash is […]

And the growing of this boil, under Kris Hart’s presidency, certainly shows […]
Washington eatery mocks GW professor, “fat suits” An eating establishment in Washington state recently began requiring customers to sign a liability waiver before eating a new dessert, “the Bulge,” mocking proponents of obesity lawsuits. The waiver is a semi-serious effort by the owners of Seattle’s 5 Spot Diner to protect their business from any sort […]
During my first three weeks at GW I have encountered many conservative upperclassmen who offered me their warnings of a liberal bias in the classroom. As both a steadfast conservative and an inexperienced student, I have no reason to doubt such conclusions. On the contrary, I hold these upperclassmen with the utmost esteem and veracity. […]
Foggy Bottom emerged relatively unscathed from a storm that left thousands without power as it tore through the East Coast Thursday night, giving students an opportunity to enjoy a four-day weekend. During the days off music blasted from rooms in Thurston Hall and other residence halls while students scoured the floors, still in their pajamas […]
