...seems strange that a group of fiveBusiness School students with such personality conflicts came together in the first place. Last year there were two competing proprietorship groups. Chokel and Stevens formed the core of on group and were opposed by a caucus headed by Rosalyn Braeman and Joe Pugliese. Both groups worked hard for the HarBus in the months before the proprietorship decision. Both groups added members with more regard for impressive backgrounds than for ability to work with others in the group.

In September, Withro's decision remained basically unaltered and he agreed to do the billing...
