There should be several Oscar nominations coming out of "Good Will Hunting"
The original script by Matt Damon and Ben Afflek, who also star in the film, is
well written, the story compelling. Performances are splendid by the young men
and by Robin Williams who plays a psychologist with problems of his own. Damon
is Wil Hunting, a young genius beset by personal problems that keep him in
trouble. A famous MIT math professor recognizes Will's gift and rescues him
from a jail term with the condition that he work with the professor and that he
see a counselor. As the counselor Robin Williams has rarely been more
sympathetic. His Shawn and Damon's Will forge a bond that brings healing to
them both. Minnie Driver is a young woman who believes in Will even when he
doesn't believe in himself. "Good Will Hunting" gets an A. Good story, good
acting, satisfying ending.

Virginia Tech is discussing ways to do that with the Federal
Communications Commission
The college will take part in an auction of wireless spectrum space that
begins February 18th.
With the space, Tech could provide businesses, schools, local governments
and hospitals with access to high-speed wireless voice and data transmissions.
People could link their computers to the wireless spectrum with a
