Smart movie move on Sept. 11

THE LAST time I wrote a column about Sept. 11, I was pretty angry. This time around, you'll be happy to know, that is not the case.

Fix honor, not the single sanction

IT'S THAT time again at the University. Time for wide-eyed first years to gape in awe at the prospect of altering a pillar of school tradition and time for jaded upperclassmen to roll their eyes.

Honoring the University's mission

HOOS AGAINST the single sanction? Not the Students for Preservation of Honor, that's for sure. While the Honor Committee engages in a contentious internal debate over the future of the single sanction and the honor system as a whole, students have begun to assert their opinions.

Ignorance through apathy

I've got one question that I doubt you've pondered: HOOS ignorant? Just when we were ready to complacently forget the racial history of this University and laugh at the thought of racially motivated incidents, one happens.

Swinging to the right

IS VIRGINIA in play? Absolutely. You'll find no disagreement between Republicans in Virginia and those Democrats who put the Old Dominion in the "swing state" column.


Opinion

Printing's hidden cost

IT'S THAT time again -- the beginning of another semester, bringing along with it an increased sense of financial burden for University students.


Opinion

A public mission

THROUGHOUT his term, Gov. Mark R. Warner has confronted educational policy with an innovative approach that says making a better future for society means creatively rethinking policy and then aiming it at emerging needs.

Three years later

THIS PAST weekend marked the third anniversary of Sept. 11. While time has mitigated our pain and grief, nothing will ever diminish our memories of that day of infamy.
