Statistical Phrasing of Greek Support Inaccurate

By Christopher Boffoli | November 2, 1999

To the Editor: I noticed that on page 3 of your November 1 issue that you once again quoted your own poll of February 1999 stating that "A resounding 83 percent of the campus said they were in favor of continuing single-sex fraternities and sororities."

My prediction is that if Alan Keyes were elected president (not that he ever would beat out McCain or Bush to secure even the Republican nomination) he would personally drive America and the world towards catastrophe.

Who Else is Sick of This Topic?

By Dan Galemba | October 26, 1999

I Love Bruce Springsteen

By Teddy Rice | October 26, 1999
