The Boston College Screaming Eagles Marching Band has not traveled this year due to budget cuts in the Athletics Department. "The band program's budget has been reduced to the same extent as every other department at Boston College because of the economic downturn," said David Healey, marching band director, in an e-mail.

Panel Addresses Campus Racial Climate

The Heights, Boston College, MA

1 day ago by Matthew DeLuca

In an effort to address issues of racial climate on campus, the Student Programming Office (SPO) sponsored a panel of students, faculty, and administrators. The panel was moderated by Karl Bell, assistant dean in the SPO. "Thanks to you all for being here tonight to talk about our campus," he said. He walked down the center aisle of the room, leading students in the "We Are BC" chant more commonly heard in Alumni Stadium. "Except when it comes to race, class, and gender," Bell said. "In those cases, we splinter into our segregated enclaves."



"When we judge people, we usually judge them by, 'Oh, you're CSOM, you have no heart,'" said panelist Jennifer Liao, Asian Caucus president and CSOM '10. Liao said that each person has a story behind who they are and that this story affects their relationships with others. Liao said that her childhood was thoroughly intertwined with her Taiwanese and Chinese heritage. "When I started school, my elementary school was very mixed racially, and I learned that people communicate in different ways," she said.

Eagles Flock To South Bend

The Heights, Boston College, MA

It was a different time when Notre Dame's Stuhldreher and Miller, Crowley and Layden were dubbed the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. It was in 1924 that Grantland Rice gave the four football players from Notre Dame that name, but the game they trailblazed has changed since then, as has the school they played for and the teams their alma mater plays against. All of the Horsemen were shorter than 6 feet and were lighter than 170 pounds. It is unlikely that they would hold their own in a Division I college football game today - they would certainly not add to their program's aura. Even the idea of a football program, an independent one with its own network television contract, would sound incomprehensible to them. There may be more muscle now, but brute strength and brawn, or even the most devilishly devised playbooks, contribute little to mythology.
