USU Outlasts BYU in Five Games

November 30, 2001
In the first of two NCAA Volleyball Tournament regional matches Thursday night, Utah State played the spoiler in knocking off No. 19 BYU at Crimson Court. The Aggies beat the Cougars for the second time this year, winning a five-set thriller 30 26, 29-31, 30-23, 27-30, 16 14.

Women’s Hoops’ Strong 2nd Half Beats Oregon St

November 30, 2001
A ragged first half marked by turnovers and an excessive outside emphasis had the Utah women's basketball team in danger of losing its second straight contest and dropping a game below the break-even mark Thursday night. The second half, however, saw the Utes register sufficient enough improvement to score a hard-fought 58-46 victory over Pac-10 entrant Oregon State and move to 3-2 overall on the year.

Men’s Basketball to Take on Pepperdine

November 30, 2001
Three days ago, this Saturday's opponent for the Utah men's basketball team appeared to be a relief. The Pepperdine Waves were 1-1, coming off a 75-58 win over Cal-State Fullerton and a 96-93 double overtime loss to UC-Irvine. Utah had beaten the Waves last year 69-56 in Malibu, Calif.

Football Trying Not to Look Past Air Force

November 30, 2001
Utah football coach Ron McBride is concerned that, with this week's announcement that his Utes would be participating in the Christmas day Las Vegas Bowl, they might be inclined to overlook Air Force this Saturday. AFA head man Fisher DeBerry, meanwhile, was concerned about a dozen of his players overlooking curfew following last week's 52-30 loss at Hawaii.

The Post-Genomic Era: Bioinformatics and Proteomics Are the New Buzzwords

By , , and November 30, 2001
Now that the human genome is mapped, what's next? In June of 2000, researchers from the Human Genome Project announced their completion of sequencing the human genome. It was a milestone in a project with a definite timeline and well understood goal by the public, but the game plan from here on is less intuitive to those outside the scientific community.

World AIDS Day Held on Campus

November 30, 2001
The AIDS Memorial Quilt displays more than 83,000 names of people who have died from the disease. Union Programs displayed several sections of the quilt in the Union Ballroom Thursday in honor of World AIDS Day. World AIDS Day is Dec. 1, which is a Saturday this year, so Union Programs decided to recognize it beforehand.

Letter to the Editor: A Laughable Comparison

Editor: This letter regards the Nov. 28 letter to the editor, "Manipulating Utah's Olympic Look," from Rebecca Walker. Comparing Native American traditions and culture with Utah's draconian liquor laws is truly laughable. Besides, even with the compromises the state has made for the Olympics, the rules and standards for alcohol consumption will still be stricter than they would be if the Games were taking place anywhere else in the country.

The Chronicle’s View: Diversity Week Unsuccessful

November 29, 2001
So far, the Union's Diversity Week celebration failed to attract many of the U's diversity groups. Because of poor communication skills, only about five groups set up tables at Wednesday's diversity fair. Union Programs' record this year is largely unsuccessful though its staff has their hearts in the right place.

Letter to the Editor: A University Contradiction

Editor: I love the rivalry between Brigham Young University and the University of Utah, and I have been cheering for the Utes all my life. I also love to read The Daily Utah Chronicle and get pumped up for the games when the Utes are playing. I have just one complaint about your statements in The Chronicle's Nov.
