...Leaving the brawling partisans of the North Yard to their senseless excesses we come upon the cool, technological splendor of the Science Center. Look at it for a minute, and then say the first thing that comes into your mind. But it was Polaroid Land camera, because if you'll notice the Science Center looks just like the Polaroid that ate Manhattan. Why? Because Edwin H. Land '30, president of Polaroid, gave most of the money for its construction, and Harvard is traditionally grateful to its benefactors...
...STRANGE, but the Pink Panther is a very controversial animal. Sample a random number of reasonably intelligent people on what they think of these stupid Blake Edwards movies and you'll get replies ranging from, "I sleep through them" to "What wonderful pictures! Real fun and unpertentious, you know?" Although more boneheaded "auteurist" cinema scholars--Black Edwards fans all--could probably give you a shot-by-shot analysis of this unsubtle director's techniques, most critics will find it hard to be objective about Revenge of the Pink Panther. So much depends on one's mood, the setting, the company...
...sloshed and pleasurably filled. Skip dessert (that's the movie). Then go see Revenge of the Pink Panther. Make sure the movie theater is filled (there's nothing more depressing than watching a Panther movie in an empty theater).

You will see, hear, and do a lot of new things with new people, and even if you never stop moving aroung there'll be thngs that you miss, or will want to miss. There are, of course, several ways to cope with Freshman Week, and the patern you choose will depend on your attitude coming in and how quickly you can adjust to a rather odd situation...
...there on a moment's notice. Don;t eventalk to obvious assholes, they're not worth the effort. Refuse to reveal the essential details beyond name and rank, that is, don't tell anyone where you're from, what your SAT scores were, or what you think you'll major in. Stay in your room a lot. One warning, though: if you really go for this technique, it will color the rest of your Harvard career. If you start off paranoid, shy, or easily offended by your classmates, you might stay that way. In a few years everyone else will...
