100 REASONS WHY HARVARD SUCKS

87 STORM WINDOWS

In September, you can't get them open to save your life. Then, when a massive exertion of brute force (on the part of the superintendent's assistant) finally releases them, all of a sudden November transforms temperatures into the teens, and there's no one to help you close them.

88 BLACK MARKET TOUR GROUPS

It's an all under-the-table, all-Euro business. Strange foreigners emerging from tour buses on Mass Ave. means a non-Crimson-Key-endorsed voyage from Mem Church...to Widener...and back, with enough time for pictures.

89 NEGLECTED READING

Same book, same condition, a semester later. A 10th of the price? I shouldn't have taken five classes.

90 WALK-THRUS

Sure, freshman rooms are nice and renovated, and seniors usually end up doing okay, but in between, Harvard housing can be a nightmare. Unique to Harvard is the bizarre glorified hallway, less-than-affectionately known as the walk-thru. Whether it be a bathroom or another bedroom through the causeway in question, heavy traffic inhibits everything from studying to sleeping to heavy petting.

91 LOUIE'S

In the depths of the River, vending machines don't always fulfill the need for quick mid-morning snacks. Only problem is that this time-honored joint opens at different times every day, making it difficult to judge whether you should settle for another pop-tart or trek for a big bag of pretzels.

92 GATED IN

Gate in between Wigg B and C: closed after 7 p.m.

Gate in between Wigg R and G: closed after 7 p.m.

Gate in between Wigg D and E: open all the time.

A pretty shoddy effort at keeping us caged with the rats.
