Head-to-Head

By John Wustrow · Friday, April 13,2007 12 a.m.

The IU football team has seen it all since it started spring practice four weeks ago. The first day of practices saw spring-like warm weather and clear skies. Last Saturday’s intrasquad scrimmage saw snow as the temperatures dipped below freezing. “Any weather’s football weather for me,” said senior cornerback Leslie Majors. “We play in it all. It’s hot in the summer, then it gets cold in the winter. It’s the whole season combined in three little short weeks; we got the heat and the cold.”

I'm broke!

By Kirk Nathanson · Friday, April 13,2007 12 a.m.

Christ on crutches, haven’t you trustees taken enough from me? You told me this would be the most rewarding experience of my life, so I put my whole life on hold for you, and now look at me. I’m eating Ramen noodles out of an old recycled beer-pong cup. The label is so faded that I don’t even know which pizza company delivered it. For all I know it was here when I moved in. If it weren’t my last fully intact dish I would have burned it for warmth last week.

Whitney ‘acts’ on her instinct

By Lindsey Landis · Friday, April 13,2007 12 a.m.

Whitney first tried to break into the modeling world in her hometown of West Palm Beach, Fla. She explained that the agents were looking for stick thin Brazilian girls, so the plus-size black girl just didn’t stand a chance. She auditioned for cycle seven of America’s Next Top Model, giving up her position on the Dartmouth women’s basketball team. She didn’t make the seventh cycle, but was called back for the eighth. She landed a spot on the show, and abandoned her studies at Dartmouth. She has since returned and will graduate with a degree in sociology in June.
