Veishea

Eighty-two years of ISU pride and tradition destroyed in a whirling dervish of flaming Dumpsters and uprooted parking meters.

John Kerry

After sweeping Iowa, only one question remains. Is America really ready for a second Catholic president?

Matthew Goodman

Student-City relations will only get better after Ames City Council members sample hot lamb, feta cheese and the delectable personality of the council’s newest member.

The GSB Student Gameday Experience Committee

This group’s existence is a little ironic in light of the fact the committee is fighting for your right to forget any gameday experiences you might have around Jack Trice Stadium, no?

Mergers and Budget Cuts

The higher-ups have been telling us for years how they’re doing their damnedest to keep cuts away from the academic mission of the university. Oops. Barring a miracle or two, both colleges will suffer in the combination process.

Lasting memories in Curtiss, Kildee, Moly Bio

To our man, “El Ni—o” the streaker with the Richard Nixon mask — you gave a whole new meaning to “Tricky Dick,” and for that, we thank you.

Cuffs

Shouldn’t we worry that the campus sado-masochists are more willing to open their meetings to the public than the university judiciary system is?

Eustachy

Him getting the job at Southern Miss is the rehab of the year, next to the rehab of the men’s basketball program.

Sept. 11 Commission

The commission has been more productive than most pundits previously believed — at least one best-selling book has come out of it.

PIRG

Students obviously don’t need help lobbying the state Legislature — we already have incriminating Veishea photos and GSB poseurs to represent us.

Israel’s assassination policies

If this is a peace for our time, we want none of it.

Ketelsen Marsh

Last shred of Iowa prairieland, or new Gap store? Bring on the khaki.

Department of Residence

If the DOR doesn’t want us, we don’t want them. Find some cheap apartments — maybe Fern Kupfer will write another column about backwards-hatted over-occupants.

GSB Election

With our feathers combined, perhaps we can help Sophia Magill avoid crash-landing into yet another year of the GSB status quo.

Fallujah

The Bush administration will turn over control of the Iraqi government on June 30, despite the burning of four contractors in Fallujah, an aerial strike on the same city and the deadliest 30 days for American troops in Iraq ever, even during the so-called “war” time frame.
