...Nonetheless, Zoe is asking for it. If you strap yourself to the hood of a car going 120 mph, don't be surprised if you and your friends get in trouble, with or without the menace of a Stuntman Mike. And if you're a filmmaker who wants to build sympathy for your heroines, don't make them as bat-poop crazy as the villain. Also, don't give Zoe three or four chances (when they momentarily lose Mike) to get off the hood...
...highest priority is inevitably to professors. And when faculty or administration interests clash with student concerns, it is always the students who lose out. The prime example sits at 90 Mt. Auburn Street: a lot at the hub of student life that was given to the library to build a library administration building, thanks in large part to then-Dean and currently interim-Dean Jeremy R.

...letting up, just a quick breather before Brock begins cautioning “Let it all drop / Oh let it all fall off.” By this point, the drums have dropped out only to be replaced by resolute horns and an organ that begins the slow, determined build to an exuberantly raucous eight minute mark. In the face of utter collapse, the song keeps its cool and gives the ever-growing horde yet another song to sing...
