...just suggesting that we delay that process and build it on a more solid foundation of class cohesion. The new system would assign sophomore blocking groups to a house while they’re living in the quad—much like at Yale—allowing them to enjoy the benefits of the House system while entering it as a more prepared and bonded group...
Sophomores living in the Quad might curse their fate, but at least it would only last a year. And the advantages are hard to deny—aside from the intangible community benefits, sophomores would enjoy more focused advising, particularly now that concentration choice has been moved back a semester.

Nearly always in the lead role, we flee from danger, triumph and flop in our areas of endeavor and enjoy passionate encounters with people we yearn for or hardly know. We do these things and countless others not in a state of detachment but rather, despite the bizarre distortions typical of dreams, convinced the events are real and with our emotions and senses engaged. That the movies we watch in theaters...
