...that's right, thirteen days--a nefarious number if I ever heard one. Besides being unlucky, the number thirteen is also too damn small for something as large, as looked forward to, as necessary as winter vacation! This is not about comparing us to other schools. I won't rehash the old (but true) argument that every other school (with the possible exception of Princeton, but they still have eating clubs so they're not exactly trend setters) has a longer break than us.
