By , , , and • March 6, 2003

Did you hear the one about the bitter NHL star who secretly married his barely-legal, Russian tennis starlet ex-lover? Of course you did. By now we've all heard the so-called "shocking revelation" that Red Wings pretty boy Sergei Fedorov was married to former girlfriend Anna Kournikova, and the two were then quickly divorced.

U Emerges About Even From Legislature

By , , , and • March 6, 2003

The bad news: There isn't funding for everything that U officials would have hoped for. The good news: Higher education won't be taking any more budget hits. Instead, there are some new revenues available-- about $3.8 million. On Wednesday, the 2003 Utah State Legislative Session came to an end, and for higher education, the conclusion could not have been foreseen.

When Jamie Sundsbak came to work Monday morning, it was colder inside his lab than outdoors. Sundsbak, a lab specialist at the U School of Medicine, arrived at 7:30 a.m. and could see his breath in the lab. He called the hospital's facilities and engineering department for a space heater.

Letter to the Editor: Progression Ad Crossed the Line

By , , , and • March 6, 2003

Editor: As an unelected employee of ASUU, I have endeavored to remain neutral and supportive of all the parties and their candidates. However, I'd like to discuss the Progression Party's full-page advertisement in Wednesday's edition of The Chronicle. The ad displayed photos of the 2002-2003 cabinet in various activities (such as snowmobiling and hot tubbing), and I'd like to mention that the photos were used by the Progression Party without the permission of Maryam Basmenji, the ASUU officer who took the photos.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, Republicans and Democrats got along in Utah. In fact, rumors tell of a story when a popular Democratic governor, Cal Rampton (1965-1977), selected more than a few Republicans to his cabinet in order to win political conciliation and bi-partisan cooperation.

Letter to the Editor: Hrebenar Says Politics Not Factor in Beck Dismissal

By , , , and • March 5, 2003

Editor: Trisha Beck has been confused about several aspects relating to her employment in my department. First, she was never a professor of any type in the department. We hire people with less than a doctorate on a one-time basis to teach a particular course at the title of instructor.

Cynicism and Student Government

By , , , and • March 5, 2003

As the Associated Students of the University of Utah's elections hang like a blunt object over the university's collective head, it's easy to be cynical. Snide remarks about ASUU are almost as rampant on campus as signs and free hot dogs. Take, for instance, a friend of mine in one of my classes.

Urban Meyer to Speak at Union Ballroom Today

By , , , and • March 4, 2003

New Utah football coach Urban Meyer will be in the Union Ballroom today at 12:30 p.m. for a meet and greet with university students and fans. Coach Meyer will answer questions from the crowd and talk about his vision for the U football team, which he has said will include spreading out the offense and airing it out more than the old system implemented by former coach Ron McBride, whose Utes went 5-6 a year ago after winning their last three games.

Elections, Pizza and ASUU

By , , , and • March 4, 2003

Winter's slowing down, days are warming up and for many students the beginning of March means the carefree days of spring are on their way. But while most of us try to work up the motivation to keep going to class for the rest of the semester, some people on campus are trying to secure seats for themselves as ASUU president, vice president and a host of other positions up for grabs in this month's elections.
