oh, wait. i remembered something funny and awesome and completely full of crap to tell everyone.
a fellow student pointed me to last week's 'bi-college news' because of a story about the graduate school here and something exceptionally silly that was said towards the end of it. boy, was he right. i quote, in toto, then, the third-to-last paragraph:
'With the high quality of Bryn Mawr's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and its competitive nature, it seems unlikely that any less than serious students would apply. Crystal Henry, BMC '05, however, has her doubts, claiming to have spoken with other students who question "the seriousness of male grad students in terms of studies." The question then, seems to be, [sic] would male students pay over $25,000 a year to be surrounded by Bryn Mawr women?'
i won't comment on the absurdity of the last sentence. most grad students i know couldn't afford to pay $25,000 a year to be surrounded by ANY women.
oops. i just commented on it.
and i don't know what student crystal what's-her-face '05 talked to, but i would question her "seriousness of dexterity in terms of making observations". perhaps the two of them could get together with richard clarke and write a book, go on 60 minutes and expose all of us for what we really are. and with all the money they make, they can start a scholarship fund for 'non-serious graduate students desiring to be surrounded by bryn mawr women'.
