Support the court

The Bush administration refuses to join the International Criminal Court, which was officially founded last month and selected Luis Moreno Ocampo as its first prosecutor this week. Though the war in Iraq has eclipsed this issue, the International Criminal Court remains pertinent.

Brotherly love

If you were around last Wednesday you witnessed a giant coming out party. The situation-Michael Jordan’s last NBA game. The setting-Philadelphia. If you saw the game maybe now you’ll understand why Philadelphia has the best, most passionate fans in the country.

Going to the chapel

My cousin got to stand in the middle of the couch and sing the solo in the Bonnie Raitt song “Something to Talk About.” We have it on tape. I was incensed. She is four months younger than me and is always getting the better end of the deal. She’s getting married in a month.

The Sports Sermon

Poor Len Mattiace. Talk about a bad day at the office. First, unlucky Len blows the Masters by capping off his 65 on Sunday with his only bogey of the day, and then he has to get in front of every golf reporter in America and explain it. Instead of explaining, Mattiace simply stood at the podium and wept.

Sports

Not on track

While the basketball and baseball teams’ lack of adequate on-campus facilities receives more press, arguably no one at Georgetown has been as negatively impacted by the absence of a facility on campus as the men’s and women’s track and field program. Since 1974, now-Director of Athletics Joseph Lang’s first year as Director of Track and Field, the Hoyas have produced 126 All-Americans in cross country, indoor and outdoor track. Even taking into account track’s unique status as a three-season sport, the team has averaged more than four new All-Americans each year, with many achieving multiple honors.
