Indianapolis looks to Jacksonville

·

After a three-day break in the practice schedule, the Indianapolis Colts began preparing Monday for their AFC South showdown with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Colts (9-2) have a one-game lead in the division. A win on Sunday would give Tony Dungy’s team a sweep in the season series and a cushion in its hunt for a fifth straight AFC South title. Jacksonville would move into a tie for the division lead with a win.

Dividing lines

·

Thirty-seven countries, 17 million square miles and more than 3 million inhabitants. To borrow a line from the oft-quoted movie “Anchorman,” the continent of Asia is “kind of a big deal.”

Campus bigotry continues despite efforts

Despite recent University efforts to prevent racially and religiously charged incidents on campus, the IU Office of Student Ethics and Anti-Harassment Programs received the same amount of complaints in the 2006-07 school year as in previous years, and officials claim many incidents go unreported.

New hate crime bill likely to reignite debate

·

IU sophomore Paul Gardner does not know who etched the word “fag” into his Wright Quad dorm room door last fall. Even if he did, there’s no legal action Gardner could take to prosecute the offender for a hate crime due to Indiana’s current lack of hate crime legislation.

Lynch to stay on as head football coach

·

Lynch fully endorsed by members of football team

·

IU students might have mixed feelings over the hiring of Bill Lynch as the head football coach, but when the Hoosiers were told this morning of the decision, the feeling was unanimous: It was the right move to make.

Enclosed: Follow-up letter to Purdue RE: Crimson and Gold Cup standings

·

Dear Purdue, First and foremost, you lost to us before Thanksgiving break ... twice! Thanks for the effort, but it just wasn’t good enough this time around as our women’s soccer team out-kicked you and so did Austin Starr. Maybe you’ll do better next year – but we doubt it. However, the point of this letter is not to gloat (OK, maybe a little).

Student users frustrated by new Word 2007

·

Microsoft’s revamped Word program is leaving some students griping about the new bells and whistles. Some users complain that Word 2007, which is installed in Harvard University’s computer labs, has created incompatibility problems and is difficult to navigate.

The education of a basketball team

·

Sometimes it takes a proverbial slap in the face to teach a young team what it takes to win at the highest level of collegiate basketball. After Saturday’s ego-deflating 80-65 loss to Xavier in the championship game of the Chicago Invitational Challenge, consider the Hoosiers slapped silly.

Lynch a ‘good’ hire

·

When Bill Lynch is at a loss for words, he has a repetitive, almost lovable defense mechanism to deflect attention. A particularly tough defeat leads to Lynch praising a “good football team.” An impressive performance by an opponent would lead to the anointment of a “good football player.”
