The Evolution of the Pictureless Bursars Card:
"There is basically one function for which the Bursars card was originally designed," a friend of ours who ought to know tells us. "And that is to afford each student in the University the opportunity to have a positive form of identification with which to gain access to University libraries, charge books therefrom, and, if the student is on board contract, to eat in the University dining halls. That is the reason why, you will note, we have chosen to draw a formal distinction between the "Bursars cards" available at Harvard, and the "Student Identification" cards routinely available elsewhere. It's not just another Harvard quirk, as you can now plainly see--you know, like a calling the Coop the Coupe instead of the Co-op, or Quincy Kwinnzeee--it's an important thing, grounded in important considerations of this and that." Quite frankly we can't disagree.
Speaking of Rubbing...
Travel with me now, down a little lower on the back of your Bursars card, yes, the sacroiliac region--where the signature is. Start rubbing. Rub hard!!! Harder!!! That's it... You see it? What's the opposite of "firmament," in the biblical sense? You got it--VOID. All over where your signature used to be. VOIDVOIDVOIDVOIDVOIDVOID etc. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Everybody should rub their signatures off their Bursars cards, and see how long it takes for anybody to notice. A couple of years, I bet. And by then you'll almost be out of Law School already.
