...tough situation. Everyone has a few friends, good friends, but they keep each other up all night talking about problems that are the same as everyone else's. There's a lot of repetition, a lot of things people do despite themselves. Certain aspects of life such as male female relationships, are made artificial. People are much more anxious than they have to be. Living in an institution makes people put their time and interests in compartments, and nowhere is this more true than in the rules about male visitors...

...truth be told, Cambridge is a city with universities, not a university city. About 100,000 people live here, and it's a good bet that over half of them-those who sometimes proudly term "lifelong residents of Cambridge" -have muttered the words "Harvard" or "M.I.T." with the incantations proper for a Druid curse at least once in their lives.

...voters-often the residents of one particular area of the City. Though the City's elections are non-partisan, attempts are sometimes made to arrange electoral coalitions. The Cambridge Civic Association (CCA), for example, encourages its supporters to give all their votes to endorsed candidates pledging to follow its "good government" politics. Yet each of the CCA councillors-who always number four-can be identified, without too much difficulty, with one or more particular blocs of CCA type voters. The specific backing of each "independent" (non-CCA) councillor can be even more easily identified...

...swung his legs over the arm of his chair, and went on, delighted. "That angered Arthur A.

He was a very good ally, and I said that I would go out on a Middle Western and Eastern tour of various friends of the Harvard Library to raise the money, if he would go with...
