It can be a forgetful person’s most useful refuge. It is for the GWorld losers, textbook leavers and backpack forgetters that roam GW’s campus. When items are lost, the lost and found is there to help. University Police’s lost and found serves the students, staff and faculty of GW by handling between 1,200 and 1,500 […]
In an attempt to further propel the GW men’s basketball program, the University announced a multi-year agreement with Washington Post radio Monday to broadcast at least 25 games on the new Colonials Radio Network. In the past, games were broadcast on WMET, which broadcasts at 10,000 watts during the night, considerably weaker than The Post’s […]
For many of us who have already graduated and for those who are thinking about their future still, the decisions we make at a young age will impact us all the way through retirement. The jobs we work at and the amount of money we invest in the financial market both hold considerable weight. The […]

Though it’s not advertised as such, GW’s music program is […]
Big changes are again coming to the University’s largest campus dining venue, J Street. The University announced this week that Aramark, which in 2002 signed a 10-year contract with the University, will no longer operate food venues in the Marvin Center. Food-service provider Sodexho will be taking over food operations June 1. With the management […]
The past two games have not been friendly to the GW baseball team. Wednesday night the Colonials (18-27) got clobbered 12-3 in College Park, Md., by Maryland (21-28). A day earlier, GW suffered an 8-7 loss to George Mason (19-26) in Arlington, Va. Against Maryland, right fielder Matt Maropis had a double, triple and home […]
There’s no good way to do this. I’d need 100 pages to explain how and why I came to embody The Hatchet. I just want to say a few things. I am immensely proud of the achievements of the people who have worked at 2140 G St. these past four years. We’ve had a few […]
The Columbian College of Arts and Sciences must make budget reductions totaling $700,000 in light of a recently announced budget proposal to cut $1 to $2 million from academic expenses, said William Frawley, outgoing Dean of CCAS.
