Evacuation Day, however, is a perfect excuse to party. Very conveniently, it just happens to coincide with St. Patrick's Day. Boston schools are closed, ostensibly to celebrate the British withdrawal. The fact that leprechauns are abundant, clovers abound and green beer flows freely simply adds to the festive atmosphere. What better way to commemorate the British withdrawal from Boston than a massive celebration of Irish culture and pride...

In these last weeks before spring arrives, seniors are finishing (or starting) their theses, midterms abound and visions of alcohol-induced stupors in equatorial locales dance in our heads.

For monopolizing control with ease, try using the site in the early evening. As the night creeps on, procrastinators abound and the competition increases for the minute opportunity in the directoris chair. The view spans from Straus Hall to Abercrombie and the crosswalk in front of it, and the camera can zoom close enough to recognize faces and legs as they saunter across Mass...
