If you thought you saw or heard about the Harvard Sailing Team's visit to campus last Friday night, you're wrong. The real Harvard sailing team was probably out lifting or drinking whiskey or whatever it is that sailing teams do on a Friday night. Those people onstage in the Camp Concert Hall looking cute in polos and argyle are a group of nine actors who only call themselves the Harvard Sailing Team.

Either way, "Moneyball" is god-awfully boring and anyone who says differently is probably a fan of Major League Baseball.
The movie "Drive" follows a character who is based on a superman-type persona, barely speaks and is also as awkward as Ryan Gosling's character in "Lars and the Real Girl." Sure, he's a stoic superhero with a secret identity but he's also awkward, makes strange decisions and gets involved with really obvious crime kingpins. And instead of flying faster than a speeding bullet and leaping tall buildings, his superpowers include driving getaway cars and invisibility.

Are you proud of yourself?
Being young - only in fourth grade - it was hard for me to understand the extent of the catastrophe that had occurred. Looking back now, 9/11 has forever changed my life. Because I lived just 20 minutes or so outside the city, my family knew many people who worked downtown and, more importantly, in the towers.
Journalists played an imperative role in informing the world about the attacks through their coverage, and the staff members of the Collegian in September 2001 were no different. They not only remember Sept. 11 as University of Richmond students, but also as journalists attempting to get information out to their peers and professors.
