A $2.1 million lawsuit over the 1999 collapse of a bonfire at Texas A&M University that killed 12 students and injured 27 others was settled Tuesday, The Chronicle of Higher Education reported. The university will pay $500,000 to the families of bonfire victims who filed the suit in 2003, and the remainder will be covered by the insurance policies of two prosecuted campus administrators, according to The Chronicle. An investigative committee determined in 2000 that the accident resulted from poor construction and administrative failure to address the hazardous building methods."While the university has actively contested the claim that the university employees were legally responsible for the deaths and injuries that occurred as a result of the bonfire collapse, the university deeply regrets the loss of life and injuries that occurred on its campus," university officials said in a written statement on Tuesday.

Earlier this month, I wrote about how Dartmouth students were forced to do too much reading in certain courses ("Learning To Read," Oct. 2). Now I'm going to write about how we're not doing enough of it.
Thayer Throwdown
I consider myself a fairly reasonable person. I love women and hate sexism. Blitz me. However, I have to admit that I roll my eyes when Dartmouth Dining Services renames "Gingerbread Man" cookies "Gingerbread People." I also think that campus dialogue on gender equality shouldn't be mired in pointless debates over whether some '12 is a "freshman" or a "first-year."

Many of the routes will include stops at "park-and-rides," where commuters can leave vehicles for a day and utilize public transportation, the Burlington Free Press reported.
