Improvements in Housing

How on-campus housing is distributed is an issue close to students’ hearts. Plenty of students remember the first time they saw the Village A Rooftops, or the first time they realized they absolutely needed to have a Henle single, or their depression upon moving into Darnall.

Bollywood and tradition intermingle

Rangila, the South Asian Society’s annual festival, has become no less than a phenomenon since its inception eight years ago. The show, which hits Gaston this Friday and Saturday, sold out both nights in a mere fifteen minutes, breaking not only last year’s one show record of 30 minutes, but that of virtually any other event on campus.

Impending paranoia

There are many good reasons why Hoyas should breathe a big sigh of relief after receiving the news of the expansion of the Big East conference, which will take effect in the 2004-05 season. While the addition of Cincinnati, DePaul, Louisville, Marquette and South Florida to the league will have a positive impact on the competition level of many sports Georgetown participates in, the effects will be felt most on the hardwood floors of the MCI Center.

Brunchy Bunch

Every Sunday morning, my roommates and I bake scones. By “morning” I mean 1p.m. And by “my roommates and I bake scones,” I mean they watch as I throw ingredients into a bowl, mix and bake them.

While adapting to a foreign environment and immersing oneself in a foreign language is certainly challenging, the workload abroad tends to be much lighter than a semester spent at Georgetown.

We’ll drink to that

In an effort to accurately assess the drinking culture at Georgetown, the Office of Planning and Institutional Research e-mailed a survey to all undergraduates last week. It asks students to answer a series of questions about their own drinking habits and general perceptions of the role that drinking plays for the majority of Georgetown students.

New Jersey redeems itself

As a life long resident of the Garden State, I can safely say that most of the stereotypes about my fatherland are woefully true. We have odious pollution, an overabundance of suburban apathy and angst, some of the most corrupt, crime-ridden cities in the country, and far too many speed traps on the Parkway.

A new hospital for D.C.

Southeast Washington has had a rough time over the past few years. Politicians and residents were up in arms when Mayor Anthony Williams announced the closure of D.C. General Hospital, one of two full-service hospitals in the District’s poorest quadrant in 2001.

B’more charming
