Team awaits decision

By John Koluder · Monday, Nov. 13,2000 12:05 a.m.

Once again, the men's soccer team made history this weekend. But not the way they wanted to. In a season that has had its share of ups and downs, Friday's 1-0 loss at the hands (or feet) of Ohio State in the second round of the Big Ten tournament was the team's most upsetting result to date. After the game, the Hoosiers seemed to be in a state of shock. Part of it was because it was their first loss in more than five years against a conference opponent. And part of it might have been because the Buckeyes were celebrating as if they had won the National Championship.

By Dan Cortez · Monday, Nov. 13,2000 12:04 a.m.

It seemed like a harmless penalty -- something that wouldn't hurt the Hoosiers in the big picture. But it would start the downward spiral that would ultimately lead to the Hoosiers' 43-22 loss to Wisconsin Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

History in the making

By Duncan Teater · Sunday, Nov. 12,2000 11:18 p.m.

Who knew Florida would become the epicenter of this country's biggest election nightmare? Things like this are only supposed to happen in corruption-filled dens of iniquity such as Chicago, where dead people have been known to vote.

Apathy not an option

By Kristen Utrecht · Sunday, Nov. 12,2000 11:15 p.m.

We all want this to be over. With the question of who will be the next president of the United States hanging in the balance for almost a full week now, the American people are understandably sick and tired of hearing about unclear ballots and the "fuzzy math" used to count votes in Florida. Some will claim the candidate who loses the Florida recount should concede defeat, instead of miring the nation in ballot and voting technicalities that could end up in court and drag on for months.

By Travis R. Thickstun · Sunday, Nov. 12,2000 11:13 p.m.

Three hundred twenty-seven people might well decide who will succeed President Bill Clinton as commander-in-chief of the United States. That's the number of students on just a few floors of a dorm on this campus. That's the number of people in one Y103, Introduction to American Politics, lecture. That's far fewer than the number of college students the IU College Democrats registered to vote this semester.
