...good idea to exercise that option. A week spent mostly in and around your dorm, meeting the people you'l;l have to deal with all year, is bound to be more fun and rewarding than attending scads of fool events staged in the greatest display of Harvardianan you'll see until you graduate (if you graduate...
...James Q. Wilson, Shattuck Professor of Government, will hold forth in Science Center B. Fondly known as "Captain Lock-em-Up," Wilson is an expert criminologist.

Check them out and by all means take the free copy of The Crimson. It'll make good reading, and it'll make us fell better. You can to the whole thing in about 45 minutes, unless you get the infamous red dot on your registration packet, which means that something it amiss between you and the term bills office (the girm reapers who will clean...
