...that is undeniably unique. Composed of students driven by ambition and a will to succeed, we pour ourselves wholly into our individual pursuits—academic, extracurricular or athletic. At the same time, as evidenced by the increasing number of final clubs, fraternities and sororities on campus, we also crave social interaction. Unfortunately, while this campus provides more than adequate resources for working, it provides no real facilities for community...
...weirder than we might remember. He was always on the run, moving restlessly from the Oval Office to his hideaway in the nearby Executive Office Building, to Camp David, then off to Key Biscayne, then suddenly to San Clemente. He was running to avoid the very thing most politicians crave: contact with other human beings.

Crowe lays bare his soul, from his romantic idealism, as documented in "Things Have Got to Change," to his fiery streak, laid down for all to hear in "Somebody Else's Princess." If the tunes were riveting, it could be as much of a privilege to dive into Crowe's brain as Bob Dylan's or Kurt...
