...prints a feature on the topic, complete with quotations both from Harvard students who presently enjoy the company of a significant other and from those who do not. The conclusions are always the same: Harvard sucks. We (we being Harvard students) are social misanthropes. We don't like to date. We are either randomly "hooking up" or we are "married."

He then chose a date in early March, which was put on hold after Cerpa either heard the noise of the tunnel construction--the army tried to mask it with martial music on blaring loudspeakers--or was tipped off about the digging. Cerpa halted talks with the government's mediators and moved the hostages upstairs...
