Stories from the September 29, 2003 issue of the GW Hatchet.
A recent Metropolitan Police Department investigation found that seven students suing the city for being arrested at a protest last year were wrongfully detained. The disclosure, which came after a federal judge hearing the students’ suit ordered the release of the internal police investigation two weeks ago, concluded that the seven students were among 400 […]
Sororities offered bids to a record number of women at this year’s recruitment, with pledge classes growing by 10 women each. Each sorority was allowed to take 38 new members, and the majority of sororities filled their quotas. Five sororities took 38 new members, exceeding the quota of 36.

A semester after University President Stephen Joel Trachtenberg voiced a zero-tolerance policy against race-related intimidation, Muslim students said they feel safe on campus as they prepare for this year’s Islam Awareness Week.
