I am done with white girls and I am definitely done with cellulite. All I want these days is a nice down-to-earth Taiwanese girl who can make me traditional Taiwanese dinners. Is this asking for too much? I greet this question with a resounding no?I mean, packing lunches and cuisine with a more pan-Asian flavor is strictly optional (knowing how to cook up a mean dika misua may be a requisite but unagi-don or dolsot bibimbop is entirely up to her).

William “Hootie” Johnson is not a media-savvy guy. In fact, Hootie, the head of Augusta National Golf Club, the most famous golf course in the country and site of the Masters tournament, is a total idiot. Combine that with his penchant for talking loudly to anyone, and you’ve got a genuine media firestorm.

“Compaq Presario … yup … 1275 … Celeron processor ? C-E-L-E-R-O-N. Yes, they still make those.” The hip technology that once made us the bees knees on campus now dates us as the older generation of students. Once beautiful computer desktops now look gray and boxy next to the smart-looking flat screen thingamajigs that the new students have purchased.

As liberal-minded, idealistic college students, many of us at Georgetown would like to say that we are wholeheartedly against the corporatization of our school. We come to university to learn and to be challenged intellectually?not to be bombarded with corporate logos and sponsorships.

As a sophomore, David Appelbaum (CAS ‘03) wrote an article in The Hoya chronicling the lack of academic and technical support for filmmaking at Georgetown.
