Inside
- April Fools (Katie Hughes Sports Copy Editor)
I make these lists for my away messages on my Instant Messenger. Five reasons to be happy every day. I ripped off the idea from a desk calendar my grandma gave me two Christmases ago. Call me a cornball, but they've developed something of a cult following.
Viewpoint
- Sept. 11 leaves indelible mark on American foreign policy (Scott Flipse Urbanites)
Has anything really changed in the last six months? If asked, all of us will say that Sept. 11 had a profound effect on our lives. But, if we are honest, it also seems the world is sliding back to "normalcy." The economy is getting stronger, Republicans and Democrats are back to partisan sniping, the Israeli-Palestinian situation is again dominating our foreign policy, people are returning to their favorite leisure pursuits — like March Madness, protesting decisions of college administrators and demanding to know how Halle Berry won an Oscar. Has anything really fundamentally changed?

"Any change, even a change for the better,
- Changing routines into entertaining stories (Eric Long Fitter, Happier)
My parents are hooked on Survivor. At first, I thought they were being ironic, because no one could possibly care about a group of whiny outdoor amateurs vying for a million dollars, unless they appreciate the camp (bad pun intended) value.
- Give Palestinians fair treatment (Omar S. Dahi graduate student)
Once again, Israel has declared a war against Palestinians. Israeli forces have re-occupied virtually all of the Palestinian territories, and the Aljazeera network reports that Israeli troups have started mass executions in Ramallah, killing about 30 Palestinian security agents it captured in the invasion. All this while Yasser Arafat is being detained in one room.
- Protests shame student body (Joel Ebner senior)
When I was in the eighth grade, my graduating class staged a protest in the school cafeteria. More than 300 students pounded on tables, shouting, "Hell no, we won't go." Honestly, I have no idea why it started, but that did not really matter. Within half an hour we adolescents had created our own personal episode of "The Wonder Years," a ridiculous prank heightened to that of a cinematic rite of passage.

Scene
- Bands, booze and the Tao of Dave (By DAVE LODEWYCK Scene Columnist)
Many starry-eyed and pimple-faced 15-year-old boys sitting alone on Friday nights get the idea that maybe the way to get to the ladies would be to learn the guitar. I was one of those boys. I can't even count how many Friday nights I spent in high-school, practicing guitar and watching "Sabrina: the Teenage Witch," thinking that that my work would one day pay off.
- Tuning in to Station One Scene interviews the winners of NAZZ (By MIKE SCHMUHL Assistant Scene Editor)
Tired of the same four CDs in your winter rotation as the snow pummels South Bend in early April? Don't worry. A fresh change has arrived to our arctic tundra with a fiery concoction of blues, soul, reggae, rock, hip-hop and funk. Originally playing at small parties around town, Notre Dame's own Station One just won the 2002 NAZZ (battle of the bands) and have started performing a few times each week.
