...quiet poetry room, nestled next to the 24/7 Farnsworth Room on the top floor of Lamont, is the place to stumble on inspiration. Poetry books and recordings surround the few tables in the spacious reading room, which overlooks Tercentenary Theatre. The spire of Memorial Church stands tall against the blue sky. If you get bored of writing that paper, you can put on your reading glasses, lean back on a blue couch, and toss open an anthology of Wallace Stevens or the latest issue of the Kenyon Review. You can also go to the computer at the front...
...History Department Library is nestled next to the department itself on the second floor of Robinson Hall. It is a convenient place to escape to in between class--especially if you are a History concentrator who lives in the Quad.

No one argues anymore, or, if they do, it’s about things like who deserves to pick up that peanut on the common-room floor. The upshot of modern communication methods is that you get to choose whom you talk to, and people tend to pick only those who agree with them...
...system for saving housing is so perfectly built that it cannot not possibly fail. It has powerful dynamics to create demand which will meet a supply of homes available at prices which must be in the process of bottoming. The reasoning here becomes circular. Housing prices are finding a floor because of the government's help to create demand. The actual issue of whether people will buy homes is left out of the equation...
