...course this is not the first time the media has wasted ink on Harvard’s sexual exploits. When a few members of the Harvard crew team decided to construct a nine-foot snow phallus last February, they triggered a school-wide controversy that soon captured national news attention.

Usually the papers she gave back were covered—and I mean covered—in green ink. She had essentially rewritten my essays, removing all the fluff and the pretentious (mixed) metaphors, leaving behind passable pieces of work. “Your writing suffers from adverbial overkill,” she explained. “And one day perhaps you’ll learn, as George Orwell once...
