...also the question of experience. Long-time guards have a familiarity with the campus, which can prove valuable in everyday situations. Guards who can quickly distinguish between students and intruders are an important commodity. It is understandable that SSI guards who are now patrolling the Houses do not know their way around--after all, they just started the job this fall. But the question is, will they stick around long enough to gain familiarity with students and their buildings? While most Harvard guards had been on the force for 10 years or more, only three of the SSI guards...
...burst through the hole, found a seam and broke it wide openonow what? Spiking your shoulder bag is considered unsportsmanlike; signature celebration dances are also frowned upon.

After each gig, the Kroks invariably make their way to the audience and lap up a few compliments, smiling...

("Sadomasochism means never having to say you're sorry.") But looking out over the crowd of undoubtedly cynical management consultants and investment bankers, all of whom have raked in piles of money and accumulated trophy cars, do these boys see why the crowds are smiling? It is because they are young and fresh, as yet unexposed to the daily grind that being a tough sonofabitch requires. The faces of the audience are wrinkled...
