Things appeared to be hectic at first, when a malfunction of one of the Seals’ helicopters caused it to crash. Despite this event, the highly equipped Navy Seals managed to go on undetected. Within the hour, the Seals managed to locate bin Laden, engage in small firefight, and finally fire the shots that eliminated the exis- tence of the most wanted man. Also killed was a woman who was used as a human shield, along with three other men, one of whom was believed to be bin Laden’s son. Less than a day later, bin Laden’s body was laid to rest at sea. This practice was held within the custom of bin Laden’s Muslim faith, which includes that the body be bur- ied within twenty-four hours.

Editorial Kulas Auditorium in need of renovation

For years, John Carroll University talked about renovating and upgrading Kulas Auditorium, a one-time gymnasium that was put into temporary use as an auditorium. Now comes word that the roof is damaged and needs repair. We think this is time to proceed with a new renovation. Renovating Kulas Auditorium has been put off for too long. The student body would benefit from the renovation.

Multiple student groups utilize the stage and auditorium. However, making these renovations would be costly. Having a nice, new auditorium would reflect well on the University. It could be put to better use by students and the community, bringing in more money, so JCU would finan-

cially benefit. On the other hand, JCU isn’t well-known for its theater arts program, so even with a new auditorium, it’s not guaranteed to be put to more use and bring in more money. Renovations could bring in more students interested in theater arts, thus promoting and benefiting the program. With a renovated auditorium, JCU would be viewed as a “ place that is more up-to-date and technologically advanced. The Dolan Donahue Auditorium is newly built and techno- logically advanced, so renovations made to Kulas Audito- rium would raise it to an equally high standard. NOTABLE QUOTABLE Though it would be a significant expense to renovate Kulas Auditorium, it is time for an upgrade.
