LAST MONDAY I faced a rather difficult dilemma during my 10 a.m. class. A flier was taped to the wall, declaring that abortion was a Holocaust.
IS THE Cavalier Daily a racist organization? This question raises so many issues, it is impossible to address them all here.
ON MARCH 24, at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, California, Halle Berry made history by becoming the first African-American woman to win an Oscar for Best Actress.
FOR MANY kids, the drama of attending school reads like an after-school special full of chintzy melodrama.
DO NOT let them get away with it. "It" is the series of attacks that have taken the lives of dozens of Israeli civilians during the Jewish holiday of Passover.
AS ROMAN Catholics celebrate Easter this weekend, their Church is involved in its biggest controversy in years, with allegations that Church leaders systematically protected priests who were pedophiles.
UNFORTUNATELY, in Laura Parcells' attempt to straddle the fence in her March 25 column "No steps forward, two steps back," she fell off and bumped her head on Anthony Dick's "imaginary wall of racism" ("Phantoms of racism," March 20). While many of her points were valid - for instance, we need to "find a new way to approach the problem of racism" - Parcells also lets elements of racism manifest themselves in her column.

THE MARCH 20 lead editorial, "A declaration of policy," clarified The Cavalier Daily's "policy prohibiting its staffers to write for other news gathering publications on Grounds." The paper came under attack the week before Spring Break in The Declaration's letters to the editor section ("Writer wrong," March 7) when "Trudy Verdad" asked, "As a Cav Daily writer, can I write for the Dec too?" The Managing Board of The Cavalier Daily made the right move in addressing this issue in its proper lead editorial format.
CATHOLIC archdioceses throughout the country have faced mounting accusations that they ignored allegations of sexual misconduct on the part of their priests.
LAST WEEK, the U.S. Senate passed the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Bill. The groundwork behind this bill was seven years in the making and President Bush is expected to sign it into law.
I LOVE the Class of 2002, my class, at the University. I really do. But a phone call I received the other night made me think twice about supporting my class by giving to the class giving campaign, something I was most likely going to do.
SELF-SEGREGATION. It's an interesting term, and it is even more interesting as of late at the University.
ENRAGED. Perfectly and succinctly does that describe how I feel. In this day and age, being the angry black man is something maligned and demonized by popular culture.
