Sunday was Senior Day for the women’s soccer team at the Mount Vernon Athletic Complex, meaning it was the last time one of GW’s greatest female athletes, Kim Warner, played in front of a home crowd. “She is the best player I’ve coached or played with at GW,” head coach Tanya Vogel said. “And I […]
Nestled deep within the GW campus, with its fire-engine red doors and beautiful brick walls, St. Mary’s is both a spiritual home for students and residents and an architectural treasure. Although it is currently sandwiched between Hillel and the Health and Wellness Center on 23rd Street, it has managed to keep its independence and its […]
The American economy is recovering, and recovering fast. Productivity, home ownership, across-the-board income levels, retail sales and consumer spending are all rising rapidly. The foundation of our economy, the American stock market, has recovered nearly $3 trillion in lost wealth.

Cheerleading is not a sport. At least not at GW, where it falls under the classification of a student activity. But at the University of Maryland, cheerleading became a varsity sport last month, as the school created one squad to cheer at games and one to attend competitions while providing a total of 12 new […]
Housing officials shut off student GWorld access Friday to a New Hall storage room containing archived housing information including student Social Security numbers and senior administration correspondence. The Hatchet discovered last week that students living in New Hall could enter the storage closet, located in the first-floor community room. The room held files for the […]
