Stories from the September 29, 2003 issue of the GW Hatchet.
Breasts have been the topic of men’s poker nights and women’s slumber parties for as long as anyone can remember. But taking a look back at some female American icons from the last century, it seems tastes and dream bodies change faster than Christina Aguilera’s hair color. Before the 1920s, corsets and crazy masses of […]
After enduring yet another painful episode of the campus liberal love-fest – otherwise known as “Crossfire” – this past week, it became utterly clear to me that the Democrats have launched another masterful and typically ruthless political attack against President George W. Bush. What’s even more appalling is the fact that Republicans have yet to […]
A lesson from 9/11 Gary Livacari’s Sept. 22 article (“GW above the ideological fray,” p. 5) is a testament to the efforts of GW to honor the victims and heroes of September 11 with respect and solidarity. In addition, we sought to remind our campus and community of the horrendous effects of terrorism and demonstrate […]
Students are becoming increasingly discontent with the technology in classrooms on two fronts. It is a mix between professor ineptitude and malfunctioning equipment with slow technical assistance. First, professors in high-tech rooms should go out of their way to prepare to use the costly equipment, or else it is money poorly spent. One ceiling projector […]
It’s been ten days since Hurricane Isabel roared into Washington like … a glorified rainstorm with some gusty winds. I do not want to have to remind anyone of that traumatic Thursday when the world stopped, but it’s my job to report the facts. And the fact is that your president and mine, Stephen Joel […]
The GW women’s soccer team weathered a flurry of offensive pressure early in the second half and got a goal from senior Kim Warner to beat visiting Creighton University Sunday, 1-0.

With the Big East reportedly set to extend invitations to four Conference USA schools, the A-10 will look to act quickly once the Big East announces a decision. “It’s […]
The GW men’s soccer team rallied behind two goals and one assist from senior Arnar Johannsson to defeat Towson University Saturday, 4-1. It was the Colonials’ second victory of the year, with both wins coming at the Mount Vernon Athletic Complex. After a slow start to his team’s season, GW head coach George Lidster said […]
The intense rain and wind from Hurricane Isabel turned the cross country course in Centreville, Va., into a giant mudslide last week. But area teams spent the week training on the wet, slippery terrain and it showed at last weekend’s GW Invitational. The host Colonials ended with top five finishes from both its teams – […]
The GW volleyball team opened Atlantic 10 conference play with an impressive 3-0 victory over Duquesne Saturday night at the Smith Center, improving the Colonials’ overall record to 12-2. Freshman Juliene McLaughlin led the GW charge in a breakout game for the rookie. Her statistics were not overly impressive, with 14 kills and a .333 […]
