To 'D' or not to 'D'--it's hardly a question

By David Herszenhorn | July 31, 1993

Few places in Hanover are open at 2:30 a.m. Even fewer are buzzing with excitement -- people shouting, phones ringing, computer keys clattering.

Let the College tempt your taste buds

By Rory Goode | July 31, 1993

Arguably the most difficult task 'shmen face at the beginning of the year is figuring out how to get the most out of a meal plan. Some form of college meal plan is mandatory for all four years, but freshmen have it especially rough because of the complicated "meal equivalency transfer," affectionately known as the "punch" system.
