Madonna may very well have have been proud of the Fairfield University Dance Ensemble Friday night because they knew how to express themselves. The two-act pseudo recital at the Quick Center entitled "Vogue: Express Yourself" showcased dancers who incorporated various styles in their performances.

Facing a critical weekend, Stags softball faced doubleheaders against Providence College and Iona College.

After putting away the 100th win of her career, co-captain Megan Stauffer '06 and the rest of the Fairfield women's tennis team stepped onto the courts this past weekend in hopes of securing another win.

The cost of higher education is getting out of control. While studying at the National University of Ireland, Galway last year, I saw firsthand how drastically different the cost of education is abroad. While I begrudgingly paid Fairfield tuition for my overseas experience, my three Irish housemates, being citizens, were entitled to the going rate for higher education in Ireland, which is roughly equivalent to the cost of a keg of Guinness.

He said he had seen her walking down the street on a late, rainy night, undoubtedly because her wings were too wet to lift her tiny body into the sky.

To the Editor: I am complaining about the lack of diversity in the sports section. I am on the baseball team, and, therefore, I may be biased, but I think at least some people in the school would like to read about something other than who the next basketball coach might be or the nonsense that is usually published about Sean Keegan on a weekly basis.
