Some of us at the Quad have found this year's brouhaha, the breakfast issue, to be, well, almost amusing. Suddenly, discontent rolls through the campus, activism's rebirth is heralded, Wheatena is a cause celebre, and universal agreement is that Dean Fox is a villain.

He took the Quad. which was once a strong and supportive community whose sole crime was its not being, and not wanting to be, Harvard, and put the final touches on its dismemberment.
