there are three huge VERITAS banners hanging from the top of widener library, and banners depicting the twelve undergraduate house shields are hanging all over the yard. i realise i can't recognise any of them, not even dunster's, though you can see the shields here. enormous and probably enormously expensive lcd screens are being rained on this very minute. i do hope it wouldn't rain on the graduating students tomorrow, but it seems like a thunderstorm is already crouching in the wings. it sounds disloyal to say it, but walking through the yard i feel i belong here more than i did at virginia.
