The fantastic, funny, moving and socially active production of The Vagina Monologues will be performed here on Friday by some really outstanding women. Friday is V-Day, the annual day of awareness about violence against women.
A lot of people are turned off by the title of the show, and, as they read about it on Wikipedia, …
We did it. We finished third in the nation; something we knew was achievable but would take a perfect weekend to reach. Well, that’s what we had — a perfect weekend.
The weekend was very close to being a huge disappointment, as we were already 3-4 down against Yale University in the quarterfinals. After Jim Bristow, …

We were expecting a somewhat bigger crowd than normal. After all, it was Trinity College that was coming down — a team that has won 10 consecutive national championships and was two wins away from completing a winning streak of 200 matches (they completed it the next day by beating Cornell).
And a crowd it was. …
