...including a core course that he would teach: Literature and Arts B-41: "The English Palladians, the Search for Truth and its Interpretation." ('Windowsills for Imbeciles,' in the undergraduate vernacular.) A trip to the presidential mansion on Elmwood Avenue reveals a building bursting with incongruous 18th century Palladian windows. Scratch pads--obtained by The Crimson from Mass. Hall wastepaper baskets--are covered by doodles of the distinctive window formation, in which a half circle sits above two tall panes. The windshield of the presidential limo has been etched in the Palladian motif, and, rumor has it, Neil and wife Angelica...

Since it is unlikely that a student center would be built from scratch, we humbly propose two options.

But why didn't Lauder buy Eve.com currently the top beauty...
...chats in a common room in Darkchild, a TV plays old Michael Jordan clips and Jerkins seems slightly distracted by it. Scratch that--inspired by it is the right word. On the screen, M.J. drives, elevates, shoots--nothing but net. "That's what I want to be right there," says Jerkins. "I want to be the greatest. I want to get to that level. Watching him play makes me want to go into the studio and write a song...
