Gross ’71 and others in the College administration to take meaningful actions toward considering this very serious proposal...

Having students on the Ad Board would do two things: legitimize the process of disciplinary action for students and allow the panel to gain access to the student perspective.

And that use continues to climb...

A personable, goateed man who ran BMW from 1993 to 1999, Pischetsrieder, 55, knows he must do something to shake up the company...
...launch early next year. And in January, France will see the debut of Pink TV, another gay-themed cable and satellite channel. GAY-TV began in May 2002 as an experiment in niche marketing, but quickly pulled in major advertisers like Dolce & Gabbana, Eagle Pictures and Renault (with an ad for the Clio that shows a male cop pulling over a car, looking at the male driver and whipping out his pad - to write not a ticket, but his phone number).
