The New Enforcement: Every Night Unregistered
by Seth Goldberg and Darren Thomas
The College has moved deliberately towards restricting and even eliminating Greek houses. Last summer, the College administration rewrote the rules, eliminating outdoor pong and instituting weekly Safety and Security walkthroughs. This fall, the administration has continued to put the fraternity system on the defensive. However, it has done so in a far more subtle fashion, as it has taken to enforcing existing rules that were given little attention in past years.

Columbia: Free Speech for All, Sometimes
by T. Henry Camp
On October 26, 2001, the University Senate at Columbia University proposed and adopted a resolution placing their stamp of approval upon an idea that the Founding Fathers made a part of the United States legal canon more than two centuries ago in the First Amendment. While most of the public is probably aware of its right to freedom of speech, Columbia students may have good reason to feel the need to introduce the idea at their school. Columbia’s actions have contradicted the First Amendment and other basic rights over the past few years.

A Presidential Controversy at Albright
by Chloe Mulderig
In the summer of 1998, Albright College began a search for a new president, and in February of 1999, Colonel Henry Zimon was offered the job. Less than a year later, questions arose concerning whether Zimon falsified information on his resume. Achal Mehra, a communications professor at Albright, led investigations into the accuracy of the resume and, in spring of 2001, was charged with “professional unfitness” and “moral turpitude.” A hearing was planned to decide whether or not to fire Zimon. Only this past September were charges against Mehra finally dropped.

Maybe Less Pizza Would Help?
by Alison Jeffe
The table was filled with three large boxes of EBA’s pizza, few slices remaining, loaded with extra cheese, bacon, meatball, ham, and pineapple, oil filling in the crevices of the cheese. Towering over the boxes was a two liter bottle of Diet Coke, and scattered around the table were plastic cups. Around the table were big chairs and benches. On the chairs sat 11 women, one from Yugoslavia, two from India, and the rest Asian and African-American. It is 7 PM in the Casque and Gauntlet living room, and this is the weekly meeting of the Women of Color Collective.

Letters to the Editor

by Gordon Haff

“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win great triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.” —Theodore Roosevelt
