6 ♦ Shocking sports fans around the world, NBA superstar Michael Jordan announced his retirement from profes¬ sional basketball. The 31- year-old ended his nine- year career with the Chicago Bulls, during which he enjoyed a multi¬ million dollar salary and led the team to three consecutive NBA champi¬ onships. Jordan, whose celebrity status earned him many more millions in commercial endorse¬ ments, cited spending more time with his family as a reason for leaving the sport early. 21 ♦ Celebrating Halloween a week early, students gathered in the Greek Theater for the annual showing of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.” The event, spon¬ sored by University Programs, gave several students a reason to dress- up in ghastly costumes.
