When Marian College asked racecar driver Michael Crawford to help launch the school’s entrepreneur-in-residence program and mentor students about realworld business, he wasn’t sure if it was such a great idea. “My hesitation was I didn’t want to pursue it right away,” Crawford said. “What happens if I go out of business?

SPORTS: Latest Pacers incident calls for stronger response

December 17, 2007

Just so you know, I already had decided to revisit the Indiana Pacers this week.
