Announcing the Greek System

By Ben Rifkin | November 4, 1999

In an unprecedented and extremely controversial move yesterday five very uninfluencial seniors publicly announced the Greek system in an act of defiance to their former state of ignorance.

Options Exist if Only Students Exercise Them

By Joshua Marks | November 4, 1999

To the Editor: In Mr. Deck's editorial he notes: "Using Glowacki's reasoning, if someone had old, decrepit shoes and said, 'Pretty soon, I need some new shoes,' they would be hypocritical if they didn't throw out their shoes right away and walk barefoot straight to Foot Locker." I believe the point being contested here is whether a new system supercedes or coexists with the old.

The New Gestapo

By Jeff Deck | November 3, 1999

Statistical Phrasing of Greek Support Inaccurate

By Christopher Boffoli | November 2, 1999

If you look back at the issue in which this was first reported, I think you will find only about 50 percent of the students polled actually responded.

Election 2000

By Conor Dugan | November 2, 1999

Within pro-life circles voters often face a supposed dilemma. They (the pro-life voters) can vote for a Republican candidate who might be 'right' on the issue of abortion but woefully wrong on other issues.

Keyes the Anti-Christ?

By Erik Assadourian | November 1, 1999

I admit that Anti-Christ may sound a little extreme for a criticism of a political candidate, but give the title a chance, for I think that as far as American politicians go, he's definitely in the running. 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.
