"We pledge love and loyalty" Dearest Will, We haven't changed much since seeing you last. "What a piece of work is a [Sigma]," "a poor virgin, sir, an ill- favored thing ... but [our] own." "Though [we] look old, yet [we are] strong and lusty; for in [our] youth [we] never did apply hot and rebellious liquors in [our] blood." The new rushing system "be madness, yet there is method in it." However, "something is rotten in the state of [sisterhood]," and we have learned that "there's daggers in men's smiles," but we too, may "smile and smile and be a villain," for "sweet are the uses of adversity." The bidding sessions went on "For ever and a day," and we discovered that we were "more than kin and less than kind," "The devil hath power to assume a pleasing shape"-the blackball; and "some of us will smart for it." Acceptances brought a wonderful pledge class; "for this relief, much thanks." Oh, acceptances, "how much better it is to weep at joy than to joy at weeping." We know how much you enjoyed our ski-weekends in the past, but at present, we have "not one [social event] to throw at a dog." "To be or not to be, that is the question," while the President's Committee treads "Look-here come thole townies again!" "the primrose path of dalliance." "Let us make nn honorable retreat" now, for "brevity is the soul of wit." Anne Hathaway
