9/11 10th Anniversary Issue


A new Web site could make the dream of going to college a little bit clearer for low-income high-school students. Last week, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid Government Initiative launched a new service called the FAFSA4caster; the online tool will allows students in their junior year of high school to get an early estimate of the government aid they are eligible to receive.

The Senior Class Board announced last week that the class trip to Atlantic City during senior week will be cancelled if behavior at this year's Hey Day does not improve. Wharton senior and class president Andrew Kaplan said the trip is one of the "most appealing events of senior week," making the threat of its cancellation a strong disincentive for seniors to haze juniors.

He may be in sixth place in batting average on the team, but junior Kyle Armeny's stats doesn't tell the whole story. That's what Yale found out on Saturday when the first baseman connected for a single in Game 1 of the doubleheader in extra innings.
