Stories from the March 1, 2004 issue of the GW Hatchet.
Posted 11:14am March 1 By Nell McGarity U-WIRE Washington Bureau As the Democratic field narrows, President Bush’s record, particularly his service during Vietnam, has been called into question. After over three decades, the Vietnam War finds itself as part of the 2004 campaign not only as a challenge to the President’s record from the Democratic […]
The state of the gay civil and equal rights movement is not good. In fact, it is in a state of disarray. With the president of the United States pushing a Constitutional amendment that would ban gays from partaking in the sanctity of marriage – a move that would basically write a segment of the […]
Like most people at GW, I’m glad Saturday’s basketball game against Richmond wasn’t televised. Despite all the hype, our performance was disappointing. We embarrassed ourselves and would have only damaged our reputation had the game been on national or even regional television. Luckily, only a small section of Richmond fans and the actual Richmond players […]
Not one truth In response to “Speaking the truth (Feb. 26 p. 5),” I’d like to represent another side of the case. Last time I checked Jesus did not put his stamp of approval on the Bible and neither do I. The true, more complete story is not in a book but in your own […]
It wasn’t pretty and it wasn’t easy, but the GW women’s basketball team returned to its winning ways with strong finishes at Massachusetts Thursday and at home against Temple Sunday on senior day.

Baseball drops two of three at UTSA The GW baseball team dropped two games and won one in a three-game series at the University of Texas at San Antonio last weekend. Their 9-5 win Saturday was their first road victory of the season. On Sunday, the Colonials (2-6) managed to turn seven hits into only […]
The GW men’s basketball team came into Saturday’s game against Richmond winners of five in a row, tied for first place in the Atlantic 10 West and one victory away from its first perfect home season in five years. But the Spiders shut down the streaking Colonials, defeating GW 75-67 in front of a loud […]
Based on an interview earlier today, The Hatchet was set to endorse two-year Senator Anyah Dembling in the Student Association executive vice presidential run-off. However, The Hatchet learned late Sunday of charges being filed against Dembling alleging she paid the membership fee for several individuals to become part of the College Democrats so they could […]
“Are you a Mac person or a PC person?” For more than 20 years, this question has become as common – and to some people, every bit as important – as, “Are you married or single?” “Would you like white or wheat?” “Scrambled or sunny-side-up?” Apple was founded by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak in […]
