Fisher pounds defense
The last three meetings between St. John Fisher College and UR have featured offensive explosions that led one team to victory. Unfortunately for the Yellowjackets, like last season, it was Fisher's offense that paved the way for the team's 58-32 victory this weekend at the initial Courage Bowl played at Fisher's Growney Stadium.Fisher pounded the […]
Inequalities exposed through natural disaster
As the single most destructive and costly meteorological disaster ever to hit U.S. soil, Hurricane Katrina has created much more than high winds, flooding and property damage. The storm's cultural aftermath exposed a federal government that is unwilling and/or incapable of responding to its citizens' urgent needs. Katrina has shown that the system under which […]

Take Five Scholar Katherine Shen had just finished her summer. For over two months, she had planned a trip to New Orleans in order to spend quality time with friends.
