...those who don't know the poem. The kingdom of old Hrothgar (voiced and modeled by Anthony Hopkins) is troubled by the predatory sorties of Grendel (Crispin Hellion Glover). Accompanied by his "14 brave thanes," Beowulf (Ray Winstone) comes across the sea to slay the monster and, not incidentally, add another laurel to his own legend. He repels a Grendel attack on Mead Hall, severing the beast's arm. Grendel limps back to his lair, where his mother - she has no name, so we'll call her Grendma - watches him die. When Beowulf discovers the lair, Grendma reveals herself...

Donovan ‘09, an Eliot House resident and captain of the club tennis team. But the improvements were less flashy: New showers, more fire doors, fresh plumbing, and a new ceiling over the pool...
...loyalty can be retained.The slow but certain saturation of Harvard’s campus with brand names trying to establish themselves in the minds and wallets of college students has raised some eyebrows and a few questions. Are these student representatives a welcome presence on campus, and do they add something valuable to the undergraduate experiences of their peers?Or can it be that they are simply viewed like the young women handing out gum in front of CVS: faceless figures doing the work of impersonal and (ironically enough) generic brand names, adding to the overly commercial feel of college...
