...Though the Paul Revere battalion has received other awards in the past, such as the top training award from the U.S. Army for the superior training scores of its cadets, this is the first time it has been honored as the most outstanding in the nation...
...ticket and JuJubees. But what a pleasant surprise - the X-Men not only saved the world, but they also saved summer movie audiences. Singer's adaptation is lyrical, elegant and wonderfully intelligent; it has nuance, something that a comic book movie usually can't afford.

A team of nine writers under the direction of former Lampoon president Matthew C. Warburton '00 holed up in the castle to turn out this 165-page parody of college guides. Published Sept. 1 by Time-Warner to coincide with the release of the U.S. News rankings and the start of the college admissions game for thousands of the high school seniors, the book satirizes everything from writing admissions essays to picking a major...
