...were a pretty serious group of students and not that much of socializers,” recalls Charles S. “Chuck” LaMonte ’56. As restrictive as students may have found the rules, they were often too busy to complain, according to graduates of the College. Students simply accepted parietals as rules that permeated all college campuses, David Royce ’56 says.“They were a huge pain in the butt, but I can’t say there was a controversy because we lived in those near-dead days...
...company's turf. In 1987 Silvio Conte, a Congressman who represented the Massachusetts district where Crane is based, introduced the Conte Amendment, which was passed by Congress and bars foreign suppliers unless no domestic source exists. A Crane competitor, the British paper manufacturer De La Rue, has threatened to complain to the World Trade Organization about the unfair advantage the Conte Amendment gives Crane.

...most college students, social life is defined by debauchery: drunken football tailgates, “Anything But Clothes” parties, and meaningless one-night hookups. At Harvard, however, students complain that the outlets for those primal urges are limited. There are Final Clubs for the few who are suitably adept at drinking wine and eating cheese. There is a semi-secret Sorrento Square social organization that used to occasionally publish a so-called humor magazine for the few who can fit in the cookie-cutter shape of the publication’s officer core. But for the majority...
