Turnovers seal doom in game, season

SPORTS BY CAMERON SMITH When senior co-captain Matt Fronczke returned an interception 52 yards for a touchdown early in the opening quarter, it seemed Georgetown was finally back on track. For the first time in three weeks, the Hoyas had an early lead, momentum, and a reason to believe that their offense would find ways to exploit the few weaknesses in Towson’s defense.

VOICES BY ROB ANDERSON I never met Daniel, but I am still crying two weeks after the night he died. He graduated from Amherst College that week and he was home on Long Island relaxing and preparing to move into the city.

Tale of a Georgetown jailbird

Languishing in jail for six hours provided me with one of the most educating and enlightening experiences of my time at Georgetown. Several weeks ago, I, along with two other students and a former Burmese political prisoner, Aung Din, was arrested at a protest in front of the Burmese embassy.

Letter to the Editor

Clarification of Mauney resolution opposition I would like to clarify a citation in the Nov. 6 issue of the Voice that indicated that the Knights of Columbus had pledged their opposition to Matt Mauney’s GUSA resolution (“GUSA rejects affirmative of Arinze address,” News).
