Frantic Freshmen To Sophisticated Seniors You'll always be able to tell a freshman by his hurried, worried look. You can always tell a sophomore because he'l1 carry one less book. You can always tell the juniors by their complacent manner and such. You can always tell a senior, but you certainly can't tell him much.
