Last fall 31 Harvard experts began their work, and were appalled at what they found. They were so alarmed that they issued an emergency interim report on safety alone. The report was a shocker: of the city's 23 school buildings, the Harvardmen said, 14 were so dangerous that they should be closed...
...Castor could not live without "my dearest friend Pollux, my other self." There have been some who flatly denied the fundaments of gregariousness, like Thoreau who "never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude." Yet, once again this week, the annual Experiment compels most clean-living Harvardmen to engage, if only superficially, in the qualitative analysis of their perspective upper-bunkers...
Alumni traditionally hold banquet meetings, to which they invite all the promising, prospective Harvardmen. Lloyd Jordan felt bluntly that money many of these should promise to play ball if they wanted to be prospective Harvardmen. He was wrong.

Kirkland, who died in 1810 (James Walker and Thomas Hill, the exceptions, repose elsewhere); and most important, we remained untouched by Mount Auburn's natural beauty which others have so enjoyed. No Euripides, no Ernest Hemingway. We just couldn't appreciate this gross slyvan glade speckled with gray Victorian masonry that the prospectus so proudly called "the City of the Dead." But then it was raining...
