If you look at the box score from the UNM women's basketball team's victory over Mississippi State University, you won't find much mention of Tiffany Scaglione, Cristal Garcia or The Pit. What they bring to the table isn't measured by statistics. The two players and one arena scored two points, two points and zero points respectively.
by Richard "Bugman" Fagerlund Daily Lobo Columnist The Physical Plant Department is in the process of re-seeding Johnson Field on the east side of Johnson Gym. One of the requirements mandated by a federal bureaucracy dictated that we do an environmental impact report on the area being re-seeded so we don't negatively impact any endangered species or archaeological sites.
by Sean Misko Daily Collegian (Pennsylvania State U.) (U-WIRE) UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Far from the scripted “shock and awe” promised by military planners, the first official shots of the U.S.-led war with Iraq were brief and took many experts by surprise.
by Jen Kosakowski Daily Targum (Rutgers U.) (U-WIRE) NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. — It has become increasingly obvious to me in recent weeks that there has been a surge in writings that vilify and invalidate the anti-war activist.

Art can be political, social, economical, environmental, personal or all of the above, but what can artists do in a time when nothing about the future is certain? While watching the 75th Annual Academy Awards, the most widely recognized awards ceremony on Earth, I was soon consumed by the thought of whether any of the artists being honored would speak out about the war, especially with the backlash that occurred after lead singer of the Dixie Chicks, Natalie Maines, spoke her mind about President Bush.

Staff Editorial The Crimson White (U. Alabama) (U-WIRE) TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — With the invasion of Iraq seemingly inevitable, an important question is what happens when the fight is over? America cannot afford to continue its less-than-stellar track record of state building when the time comes to rebuild Iraq.
Editor, I believe our president is ill. I believe him to be of failing health, both, physically and mentally. How else can one justify his current international actions? As a parent and son, I strongly believe in “a mother’s love” as a form of healing.
The UNM women’s basketball team is among the best in the nation. The Lobos proved themselves Monday night at The Pit, pulling an upset over Mississippi State, 73-61.
