Men seem bent on cornering women, on getting them away from possible competitors, but they rarely succeed. The ratio isn't that good yet, apparently. No one remembers names. Someone actually asked his companion what his SATs were. A guy wearing a Lacoste shirt (the international symbol of preppiness) climbs the stairs in Weld North, claiming he is "trying to perfect his preppie image...
