...senior at The George Washington University (GW), I was a bit confused by Rohit Chopra ’04 (Op-ed, Oct. 16) on our preregistration system. He describes it as a battle, with students waking before dawn to prep for war. As someone who has preregistered for classes since the fall of 1999, I must admit that my battle gear is still in storage at home in New Jersey...

They include the award-winning science fiction series “Watchers” and a number of movie novelizations and young adult horror stories. He is currently working on an historical novel, set for release...
...just a few weeks, thousands of undergraduates at George Washington University will set their alarm clocks to wake up at dawn for the ghastly semiannual ritual known as preregistration.

The Chinese centimillionaire tapdanced into the international spotlight two weeks ago upon being named Chief Executive of a weird new North Korean free-trade zone. But before you could say "axis of evil," Yang got knee-capped by his motherland. Before dawn on Oct. 4, Chinese police knocked at his residence in Shenyang and summoned him for questioning. Authorities have since filed a "case for criminal activity" against him, according to the official China News Service. The charges are unclear, but Yang, a flower-seed tycoon worth an estimated $900 million, recently...
