Dear Freshman,
You don't know who I am and frankly shouldn't care, but
unknown to you we have something in common. We are both rather
prone to mistakes. I was elected Student Government President by

Dear Miss Manners:
My home economics teacher says that one must never place one's
elbows on the table. However, I have read that one elbow, in between
courses, is all right. Which is correct?
Gentle Reader:
For the purpose of answering examinations in your home economics
class, your teacher is correct. Catching on to this principle of
education may be of even greater importance to you now than learning
correct current table manners, vital as Miss Manners believes that is.

Do you know the difference between education and experience? Education
is what you get when you read the fine print; experience is what you get
when you don't.

Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to
time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.
