E says: Cranking out article after article to meet deadlines can be pretty tough, especially on those days when good ideas are as hard to squeeze out as that last bit of toothpaste at the bottom of the tube.
The College should proceed with providing cable televi-sion installation to all residence hall rooms.
These days in the U.S., it seems like the government has declared open war on tobacco companies. Recent national laws have forbidden tobacco billboards within 1,000 feet of schools, free gifts with tobacco purchases, and at the center of it all ... lawmakers have raised prospects of increased cigarette taxes, and a new tobacco settlement may soon be reached.

To the Editor: I should no longer be shocked by The Dartmouth's lack of editorial standards, but as I progressed through Aaron Klein '98's atrocious column, "No More Lies About Dating at Dartmouth" [July 11, 1997] (which I read via the World Wide Web), my jaw slowly dropped.

I started my Tuesday morning fresh with column ideas, all of which seemed to vanish the moment I picked up The Dartmouth and read through Justin Carrino's comment on "Love, Dartmouth Style" [July 1, 1997].
