Marauder baseball team to play at SkyDome

For the second time in its seven-year history the McMaster University baseball team will play at Toronto's SkyDome. McMaster is one of six teams invited to play in this year's Canadian Intercollegiate Baseball Association First Pitch Classic tournament at the SkyDome on Friday, Sept. 8. The Marauders, the defending Ontario West Division Champion, are scheduled to play defending Ontario East Champion Durham College at 8 am. McMaster played in the inaugural First Pitch Classic against the University of Toronto in the fall of 1996. Two additional CIBA exhibition games and the Toronto Blue Jays game vs. the Detroit Tigers will follow McMaster's game. McMaster opens its regular season at Western on Sunday, Sept. 10 at 1 p.m. The Marauder baseball team will open at home on Tuesday, Sept. 12 at 6 p.m. versus archrival and defending national champion Brock.

Business school finds it tough competing for professors

Since the beginning of 1999, the School of Business has hired five professors, but acting dean Willi Wiesner tells National Post reporter Sean Silcoff in Saturday's paper "that doesn't even begin to make a dent in the number we need." Weisner says the school needs at least 15 more professors "just to make people feel we're sort of on top of things." Enrolment at the school has grown by about 25 per cent in the past 10 years and is expected to grow that much in the next two, but the school is finding it difficult to attract and keep professors, who can expect to earn more at U.S. business schools.
