Staff Editorial: A housing tragedy

Recently a student from Georgetown University was killed in a fire in his off-campus housing. Investigations following his death found safety problems. It seems that if the house had been better maintained, the young man's life could have been saved.

Staff Editorial: Hold the riots

In the wee hours of Oct. 21, following the Red Sox-Yankee game, a riot (as defined by Public Safety) erupted in the Letts-Anderson Quad. Fans poured into the common area screaming, cheering and chanting various epithets, including "Yankees suck!" Public Safety and the Metropolitan Police Department rolled in, some with nightsticks, and a few students threw beer cans at them.

Crew deserves recognition, respect

Suzanne Hill writes: "In the wee hours of the morning, the campus is desolate, save for a handful of stragglers returning from parties and a group of chain smokers in the LA quad. But within the walls of the quiet dorms, a team of dedicated, passionate athletes awaken from sound slumber. They scramble to hit their alarms and search their dark rooms for the nearest obtainable spandex."



Section 202 hosts Connor Sturniolo and Gabrielle McNamee are joined by fellow Eagle staff member and phenomenal sports photographer, Josh Markowitz. Follow along as they discuss the United Football League and the benefits it provides for the world of professional football.
