Viewpoint
- Belles' student government on the ball (Jason McFarley The Bottom Line)
Note to the incoming Notre Dame student body president and vice president: When it comes to election procedures, the on-going discontent at Saint Mary's should, I trust, keep you from following their lead. But as for the true spirit of student government, Notre Dame could certainly learn a lesson from Saint Mary's.

- Stolen bouquet sours V-Day (Letter to the Editor )

Without your support, we could not have beaten the defending national champions. We were dog-tired at the end of the game, and you all gave us the energy to fight through fatigue and come away with a big-time win at the Joyce Center.
- Eating disorders hit men, too (Letter to the Editor )

- Show degrades women, marriage (Letter to the Editor )
Last night, FOX hosted the most watched wedding since Charles and Diana. The show, "Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire," paraded 50 single women ranging in age from 19 to 43 in beauty pageant form across a nationwide stage. Instead of a sparkling rhinestone studded crown, the prize was a middle-aged millionaire holding a three-karat diamond ring in a Pumpkin Carriage-style box. The Cinderella motif was a valiant attempt to romanticize this pathetic display of superficial degradation.
