M SCHOOL DAZE The beginning of another school year, already. Sophomore stomachs are sloshing around inside sophomore bodies. Five minutes after the late bell, they are sure that they will be the only ones left in the hallway looking for room A-55. The incoming juniors are almost exuberant that there is now someone more vulnerable than they are. It’s their turn to dish out the vi- ciousness in line soccer. Seniors?
