Inside
- Who do you represent? (By TERESA FRALISH Assistant News Editor)
Two weeks ago, 20 Saint Mary's students traveled to Washington, D.C. to participate in the annual March for Life — they each paid a small fee to ride a United Limo bus for 12 hours and paid for their own meals while in the capital city. Four other Saint Mary's students also made the trip to Washington that week to attend the Never Go Back pro-choice conference — they traveled by plane, the cost of which was paid for by the College in addition to the students' meals.
Viewpoint
- Another year, another disappointing election (John Litle )
I always get the urge to write about the campaign for student government when I'm rushing to the bathroom. It's strange. Last year this time, I wrote an article criticizing all the candidates for their vapid, useless campaign promises and claimed that such promises would never come to light.
- Appreciating students' devotion to social action (Felicia LeClere Associate Professor of Sociology)
When I agreed to participate in the debriefing of participants in the Center for Social Concerns' Urban Plunge, I did so largely to support the mission of the Center. I expected to occupy my usual professorial role of mediator and guide.
- Student politics create student apathy (Andy Nelson senior)
As I stare down the barrel of impending graduation and look to the future with much trepidation (thanks to the Jumble for improving my vocabulary), I find myself wanting to share thoughts about the Golden Dome, particularly student politics.
- Department split harms students (Noah Amstadter class of '02)
The recent suggestion that the Economics Department be split in two tears at the heart of the University. To do so would be an injustice to students at a school that sells itself as emphasizing justice, compassion and selflessness. Further, this suggestion is only the latest exhibit of the University's move from a commitment to its own Catholic values towards a desire for acceptance in a sinful world of corporate greed.
- Educational goals justify pro-choice trip funding (The Observer Editorial )
A Catholic college is not an oxymoron — but it is a study in duality. The Catholic Church is an institution of strict doctrine and devout followers. Institutions of higher education promote novel, diverse ideas and questioning minds.
News
- Hallahan resigns over Bishop's dance view Chief of staff wanted stronger stance on student interests (By MEGHANNE DOWNES Associate News Editor )

- Boat Club survives another day (By JASON McFARLEY News Writer)
Despite campus rumors that The Boat Club will lower its sail for good this weekend, the popular student tavern has yet to navigate the legal hot water it may have cruised into following the Jan. 24 raid that nabbed some 200 underage Notre Dame and Saint Mary's students.
- Female candidates in election races (By JASON McFARLEY News Writer)
Voters first did it in 2001, when they elected Brooke Norton.
- Committee to discuss SMC meals (By AMY GREENE News Writer)
Students at Saint Mary's are implementing a new dining hall committee this semester. Formed by Student Activities Board President Adrienne Dorbish and Sophomore Class President Sarah Brown, the committee will serve as a touchstone between the student body and the Noble Family Dining Hall staff. Dorbish and Brown hope to effectively voice student concerns about the current meal plan options and the quality of food in the dining hall.
