...Enigma code machine, if you replace the Nazis with a bunch of d-bags. In other words, it’s finally Senior Spring, and chaches are flying out of the woodwork at record pace. Over spring break, an aggressive portion of the senior class moved en masse to Acapulco, where they found out that you can lead the Harvard student to Mexican waters, but you can’t make her have sex with anyone.

On the other hand, each project is at the mercy of its theme. If Detroit Tigers fans think the idea of giant tiger statues and huge scratch marks on the columns at the Tigers' Comerica Park is insufficiently macho, they...
