Green: the bold color for St. Patrick's Day ...and any casual day
Brian Lewis/KANSAN
The Alumni Place parking lot behind Stephenson Scholarship Hall is almost always full, as it was yesterday morning.
A white Chevy Corsica and a green Jeep Wrangler collided at 14th and Massachusetts streets about 3:45 p.m. Tuesday. A passenger in the Corsica, which was driving southbound on Massachusetts Street, was sent to the hospital after the Jeep's driver hit the car. The cars' owners did not want to have their names published.

Bar patrons from nearby establishments like the Hawk and the Wheel often park in the lots, which causes more overcrowding, Ken Stoner, director of Student Housing, said.
The Alumni Place lots, which are reserved for scholarship hall residents, are always restricted but frequently contain illegally parked cars.
Paul Trigoso, Lima, Peru junior, is a scholarship hall resident and employee of the Parking Department. He tickets as many as 17 cars in a four-hour period in lot 100 by Stephenson Scholarship Hall, he said.
Trigoso said the most common ticket he issues is a "no permit" ticket, which is $20. He also issues $35 tickets for blocked roadways and $100 tickets for illegally parking in handicapped-designated spaces.
"I'm not personally mad at them, but they need to know that they're not supposed to park there," Trigoso said.
People park illegally because there are no other spaces available, he said.
According to the department, 330 permits were sold for the 291 spaces.
"It's just a limited resource and we're not telling anyone that they can't buy a permit," Hultine said.

Israel hands over control of Jericho
JERICHO, West Bank Israel yesterday handed this quiet West Bank town to Palestinian security control, ending a weeks-long impasse over the removal of army road-blocks and giving a fresh boost to Mideast peacemaking, Palestinian commanders said.
American commanders said. Jericho is the first of five West Bank towns to revert back to Palestinian control in coming weeks, part of an attempt to restore the situation that existed before the outbreak of fighting in September 2000.

As part of the pullback in Jericho, Israeli troops removed one roadblock, while two other barriers were to remain in place during a monthlong trial period.

can will not be the only forms of the beer that will be consumed tonight. Students can also try it in Irish car bombs or other concoctions mixed by a bartender.
"Every year back home we would start with a Jager bomb and finish the night with an Irish car bomb," Kevin Norris, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, said. "I think I'll get someone to help me continue the tradition."
Other than the flow of Guinness, festive green beer will make a run for the most-ordered beverage. Nearly every bar in town will have its little bottle of food coloring behind the bar. But some bars will not put forth as much effort preparing for the holiday because of their locations.
"We'll be able to give customers green beer if they want it," Tom Conroy, owner of Conroy's Pub, 3115 W. Sixth St. "We're not really going to do much. We've tried to do stuff in the past but everyone seems to go downtown."
