Some of our Hydeparkers seem to be try- ing to prove them Wrong Cin the interest of science, of coursej. VVhen asked why they cut, they answer, 'fMaybe I was horn that way?', To our grade advisors this is strictly a hypo- thetical question. Their job is to find lem, chase lem, sink lem. They go about their ardu- ous task with this thought: firmness, but fairness. In the interests of our hardworking grade advis- ors, they should start verifying the theories of the phychologists.
