The Sports Sermon

Come one, come all to the seven-year reunion of the 1995 Florida Gators football team! Join former Gator frontman and new Washington Redskins Head Coach Steve Spurrier as he “fun-n-guns” with new quarterbacks Danny Wuerffel (almost rhymes with “awful”) and Shane (third-string on the Bears) Matthews and new wide receiver Chris Doering (almost rhymes with “worthless”).

Tough job market improving for GU grads

Despite a tight job market, Executive Director of the MBNA Career Center Sylvia Robinson said that this year’s Georgetown graduates remain a very strong draw for companies building their leadership for the future.

“No.”

Call it petty or dismiss it as mere foolishness that no one could actually believe. It was probably just written there in a fit of immeasurable boredom, right? Or, just consider it for what it is: homophobic slander. When students met in White Gravenor 206 on Jan.

Come to my house!

We’ll folks, we are in the midst of one of those times of the year again for sports fans. A time when nothing is really going on and all we can do is sit around and wait for the excitement of the upcoming weeks, which can’t come fast enough.

And wait. And wait. The books say that waiting is the easy part. They’re wrong.
