Letters Perfect; Former WPIAL Star Wrestler Having Stellar Season at Lehigh
Off of the mat, Lehigh University sophomore Troy Letters is about as simple as they come. I do my school work, but other than that, after school, wrestling is my life. On the mat, Shaler Area graduate Letters tries and keeps it that simple as well. He goes out and does his job. And so far, the kid has done an outstanding job, having compiled a record of 22-0 in dual matches, becoming an All-American in just his first season, and for his work thus far in 2003, Letters is ranked No. 1 in the country at 165 pounds. He was 34-2 as a freshman, 5-0 this year.

The Solution to the “Ring Around the Glass”
Scientists at Lehigh were mentioned in an article about the cloudy ring that can form around wineglasses. They say it isn’t the result of leftover grime. It’s actually caused by a network of microscopic scratches that become visible after a few spins through the dishwasher.

Student EMTs are Gaining Exposure as they Provide First Aid

Lehigh is one of 14 Pennsylvania colleges that belong to the National Collegiate Emergency Medical Services Foundation. When an emergency is reported to campus police, three students from the emergency service typically respond.
''My guys know when to back off because they're properly trained,'' said Lehigh University Police Chief Edward Shupp.

The Sick Man of Asia
Rajan Menon, professor of international relations at Lehigh, wrote an article on Russia’s Endangered Far East. The Russian Far East is a gaggle of territorial units varying in size and shape, he wrote. A vast expanse of 6.2 million square kilometers three-fourths the size of the 'Lower Forty-Eight' U.S. states, the Far East occupies more than a third of Russia's landmass and contains a cornucopia of oil, gas, timber, gold, diamonds, fish, coal and assorted industrial raw materials. Yet no more than 7 percent of Russia's population lives there.
