- Irish `Finnish' off Junior National Team 98-53 (By TIM CASEY Assistant Sports Editor)
Glance at the score of Tuesday's exhibition game and an obvious reaction of satisfaction comes to mind.
- Davie focuses team effort and constant improvement (By KERRY SMITH Sports Editor)
With just two games remaining and a 9-2 season a looming possibility, Bob Davie and the Irish have a lot on their minds. Like a Bowl Champio-nship Series bid, that would provide redemption after a less than mediocre 5-7 season and quiet calls for a new coaching staff once and for all, right?

- Coming out for Mom (Marlayna Soenneker Here We Go Again)
I would have loved to have written this column back in October on National Coming Out Day or even last week during our week of learning tolerance, but there were reasons for my delay. My mother was just here for the Boston College game, and I didn't want to write this until she had come and gone. You see, it's about my mother that I want to write. My mother is a lesbian and I want to talk about that today.
- Quote of the Day (Mark Twain author)
"All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure."
- Breaking out of the bubble (Drew Olejnik For a More Just and Humane World)
We painted walls in a school, put up ceiling tiles, shadowed students and picked trash from one of the many illegal hillside trash dumps. Knee deep in filth, wading through the dirt, garbage, bones, dog carcasses and syringes, we worked with dozens of other college and local students and left David, Kentucky, the site of our Appalachia Seminar experience, with the understanding of what service to and by many people can accomplish. Communities can achieve greatness if willing people communicate, work hard and have a vision.
- Struggling to rebuild (Dawn Lardner senior)
I got my first look at East Timor through the plane window while holding the hand of the girl sitting next to me. (Terrified of flying, she braved the trip to visit her mother who worked for the united Nations.) The mountain peaks of the half-island formerly part of Indonesia jutted through the clouds.
- Larger facilities needed (Aaron Murray graduate student)
I was more than a little disappointed in the University in their handling of the Tim Russert talk. It is not often that the students get to hear someone of his stature speak on our campus.
