...what is it? Why can’t we have fun? It wasn’t for lack of trying. An ambitious group of Undergraduate Council members had tried to throw a three-hour, post-kiddie pool “Alternative Springfest” in the Quincy Courtyard. It would have featured food, music, and 15 kegs. Despite their efforts, the plan never materialized...

Then it turned out that his real name was Mark Chapman, the same as that of the late singer's assassin, and out went Chapman. Now new auditions have turned up Mark McGann, 24, who portrayed the Beatle in the 1981 Liverpool production of the stage musical Lennon. "I wept when I got the role," says McGann.
