...shame that in arguing for a reduction in the size of the Undergraduate Council (a goal I fully support) prior to approving a term-bill increase, the editorial staff feels the need to put forth baseless assertions about the council's competence (Editorial, Nov. 18). In particular, I'm interested in what the editorial staff finds to be the council's "mediocre campus-wide events." Are these the Harvard-Yale weekend festivities? The Game tailgate has served food to 1,000 people each of the last three years, and the shuttles to the Harvard-Yale game at Yale transport over...
Argue for or against the term-bill increase to your heart's content. Argue that only downsizing the council will allow the council to obtain the representativeness that it needs.

...feisty 73-year-old long-distance trucker and former reading teacher from Mesa, Ariz., he had heard about Nuevo Laredo's prescription-drug bonanza from his trucker pals. Clutching a plastic bag, he is pleased with his purchases, which include Augmentin, Proscar and that modern elixir, Viagra. Nearby, Bill Gibson picks up Tagamet, the stomach medication, for a mere $7.50--far less than the $62 he says he would pay back in Oklahoma City, Okla., "even though it's made by the same company as the stuff...
