| | Editorials -- A Little Beige Book With A Lot of Mixed Messages |
 | | "The Guide: A Little Beige Book for Todays Miss G," a compilation of interviews and articles, is back for its second year to shed the wisdom of a few to the masses regarding what attributes constitute the behavior, appearance and standards that a "woman" must uphold. |
 | | In addition, by distributing The Guide only to female freshmen, it seems as if the residents of New South, Harbin and Village C are targets of the "little beige book." For many freshmen, male and female, second semester is one of the most intense periods of insecurity and personal growth. |
 | | By concentrating distribution of The Guide to freshmen, the authors and contributors are in essence proclaiming, "If you havent found a personality, heres one." To think, we could all have a new worldview thanks to this "little beige book" of dos and donts. |
