I don’t normally do this sort of thing. I have to admit, though; I’ve always found the idea of racing in women’s clothing a little compelling. I can’t explain it, but ever since I found out about it freshman year, I’ve been strangely drawn toward the High Heel Race, held on Q Street in Dupont […]

The tag “freestyle” comes from giving the authentic Japanese dishes a slight Western touch. But are the taste buds of the […]

(U-WIRE) AMES, Iowa – We now have a glimpse into the kind of attitude that may be just under the surface of some of the people who run the current administration. Last week it was revealed Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin made frighteningly xenophobic and extremist comments over the past year and a half to […]

Despite racing out to its best start ever, the GW women’s soccer team failed to make the Atlantic 10 Tournament, splitting its last weekend series of the season.
