Parties in Pennypacker suffer less from the Budweiser-jock syndrome this year, and the only spare tires in sight belong to a few of the proctors. In fact, life in general at "the Pack" is now, by all accounts, something people are happy to talk about--a far cry from the days when residents regularly bemoaned being stranded in "the slums of Harvard," flushed away in "the cesspool of the University." In the first year since crowding forced the University to break with the past and house women in the Union Dorms, Pennypacker has pulled a startling about face, becoming...
Goodness, what a serious matter. Unless college can deliver a better pay-out, liberal education is bound to suffer the fate of other respectable but low-return activities like religion, love and honesty.

The government now commands only 316 votes...
Papal View. Some businesses will suffer from the passing of il ponte, especially the travel agencies that offer popular cut-rate tours during the long weekends. But the institution that might appear to be most hurt by the new schedule-the Roman Catholic Church-is not complaining. Priests have long known that most parishioners use religious holidays to go on vacation, not to Mass. Indeed, Pope Paul VI recently called on Italians to support the austerity program, lost holy days...
