that is

Rice Track/Soccer Stadium.
Come out and cheer hard; this
is the last weekend of home
games this season.
She spikes, she scores!
Women's volleyball faces off
against East Carolina at 7 p.m.
at Autry Court. Funny, I always
thought the Carolinas came in
"North" and "South," not "East"
and "West."
Speculation on copulation
Robyn Wiegman, director
of women's studies at Duke
University, speaks on the role of
intercourse in queer theory. The

"V" is for veggie, and that's
good enough for me
The Rice Veggie Club holds
its first meeting at 6 p.m. in
the Baker College Commons.
The food is free and meat-free,
though a $2 donation to cover
expenses is requested.
Everybody deserves to get
screwed sometimes
Screw Yer Roommate starts
tonight, which means we'll all
have plenty of bad-date memo-
ries to drown at the post-Screw
Yer Roommate pub night begin-
ning at 10 p.m. at Willy's Pub.

SATURDAY
One if by Owl, two if by sea
Football takes the field against
Navy at 5 p.m. at Rice Stadium.
It would be really cool if we
could fill the stadium for this
game ... oh wait, that would
take more students than Rice
has ever graduated. Come out
anyway and take up a lot of
space as you cheer on the Owls.
Auditions for Michael Flatley's
next big hit: Bayoudance
OK, not quite. But there is an
Irish dance clinic 1-3 p.m. at

Women's swimming holds its
first home meet of the year
against North Texas. The girls
hit the lanes at 10 a.m. at the
Rice pool.
Soccer senior night
Yes, senior night begins at
1 p.m. — trust me, it makes
sense somehow. The Owls battle
the University of Texas-El Paso
at the Rice Track/Soccer Sta-
dium to end their home season.
Volleyballicious
Women's volleyball serves it up
to Marshall at 1 p.m. at Autry
Court. You could plan your whole

still not get to see everything.
