After The Georgetown Voice: 2003

For our last issue and last chance to work together, the graduating seniors at the Voice wanted to take a look at where various Voice alumni are now. From various graduating classes, we found not only journalists, but an attorney and even a professional clown.

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.

How to make a bad student film

Two weeks have passed since Georgetown third annual student film festival. In the interim, the Lord has risen on the third day, and we here at Voice Leisure have witnessed intrepid students dashing about with digital cameras in preparation for next year’s competition.

Filmy buildup

While GUTV and cohorts have yet again collaborated to host the Third Annual Student Film Festival on campus, perhaps some would rather spend their lunch money on a more culturally diverse bunch of shorts-that’s short films for you uninformed folks.

This weekend Visions Cinema and Bistro Lounge will again be showing Oscar nominated short films from around the world.

Adjust your clocks to hippie time

I love Georgetown. I am not an anti-establishment whiner who doesn’t appreciate the opportunity I’ve been blessed with for four years. I don’t hate my parents. I got enough hugs. I love America, and I shower with amazing frequency. I’m a big fan of Neutrogena body wash.

A diverse requirement

On April 2, the College dean’s office issued the spring edition of The College, the online newsletter for students. An easy-to-ignore section near the top, pointed to the possibility of a major shift in the way the College approaches core requirements. Associate Dean Anne Sullivan is conducting a review of the College curriculum measuring the number of diversity-related courses offered.

Embedded in the GU Peace Camp

It’s 9:00 am on a Tuesday, and a light flow of people stream through Red Square. Some walk by with eyes focused ahead, but most glance over to the now-familiar group of tents pitched on the side of White-Gravenor. The majority of interested passers-by look past the protest signs to make eye contact with one of the activists inside the camp.
